Father n Son dispute

Apollo: William, stop being an ass and invite Perseus. Will: No. I'm tired of seeing you two eyebone each other. My guests and I deserve a nice party without having our innocence taken away. Apollo: You're being ridiculous. Save the theatrics for the stage. Will: I'm not inviting him, Dad. That's all. Apollo: Fine. If Perseus can't come, then neither can Nicolo. Will: That's not fair! Apollo: You think I want to see my son make out with his lover? I can only handle so much, Will. Will: At least I don't hump his leg in broad daylight or fuck him next door! Apollo: It's my house, William! If I want to make love to Perseus, I can if I damn well please. Will: Then don't plan my fucking parties at your house, Dad! Apollo and Will argue Nico and Percy in living room Nico, eating chicken nuggets: So dramatic. Percy, slurping blue slurpie: You can say that again.

“‘Dad!’ Will shot to his feet. He ran down the steps and tackled me in a hug. That’s when I lost it. I wept openly. My beautiful son, with his kind eyes, his healer’s hands, his sun-warm demeanour. Somehow, he had inherited all my best qualities and none of the worst” (TON, p.80).

and that, my friends, is what we call:

1. an interaction that made me bawl my eyes out

2. a godly parent who isnt a deadbeat and genuinely loves their child??!!? (gasp gasp gasppppp)

She Won.

His child won his game.

He couldn’t be more proud.

And yet.

Despite that.

He still Smited and Striked her with his lightning again and again and again.

It wasn’t because she won.

It was because she won.

Apollo, despite not having any qualms on Athena’s Human, gave in too fast. It was the reason Zeus made him 1st. To build in false hope.

She of course didn’t fall for it.

Hephaestus was a bit challenging but it was all child’s play. She finished the little obstacle course in less than a Minute. She had to use logic on him yes but nothing she couldn’t handle.

Aphrodite and Ares were the real challenge she had to go against because those two actually held grudges against the man. She almost lost even when Ares stoked her.

And yet she suprised him again with her Protectiveness of a mere child whose father was shamed.

More less of a ‘Friendship’ with just a weak teen.

He had to give it to her. She won that fair and square.

It pissed him off. It pissed him off so much.

Hera knew every trick and tale that came and went with Gods and Godesses alike trying to free and spare their oh so ‘hero’ from punishment. It was why she was last. She would’ve been the hardest one to convince.

If it wasn’t for the fact that his own Daughter spat out how he wasn’t a Cheater and how he was Loyal to his Wife and how she instantly caved in and-

UGH!!

And yet, despite it all! She. still. won.

Any other father, mortals atleast, Would’ve been brimming with pride and radiate happiness throughout their own soul.

But he wasn’t just any father.

He was a King

The King.

The King of Gods and Goddesses. Even those Outcasted. He still held power and ruled over them.

And yet here he was. Expected to hold up his end of a bargain to his daughter who won his game less than 3 minutes top.

He was- he felt Humilated. He felt shame coarse throughout his veins. Pride and Arrogance clouded his mind and…

Well…

Kings weren’t known to hold up their end of a bargain after all.

[incorrect-seafam-quotes]

Poseidon: So I see you didn't punish Hera for kidnapping Percy and your boy.

Zeus, eyeing Poseidon warily: It was ultimately Apollo's fault due to the prophecy-

Poseidon: But ultimately she didn't get punished.

Zeus: Well, no but-

Poseidon: Percy! I'm kidnapping you and holding you at Atlantis for a year!

Percy: I need to attend Estelle's 1st birthday in a few months, but besides that please. Get me out of his hellhole. I have no idea how I let mom and Annabeth talk me into NRU.

Poseidon, nodding: I can work with that! I finally get to bring you home.

Zeus: wAIT-

[my-name-is-apollo]

Having a "I've connected the dots" moment on why Zeus is so affectionate with Apollo, and I don't know why I'd never considered it before that Apollo's youth could be a reason.

Iamblichus, The Life Of Pythagoras (trans. Guthrie)

So there was this sentiment that young boys are the dearest to the gods, and the gods are especially attentive towards their requests. And since Apollo is a perpetual young boy himself, with Zeus being the one to grant him this gift in one version, it makes sense that Zeus has granted so many of Apollo's wishes. He spared Prometheus and Periphas upon Apollo's request even though he was personally offended by them. He agreed to suppress Gaia and Athena upon Apollo's request when it came to the oracular business. He even revived Asclepius to console Apollo despite Apollo's frankly disrespectful reaction to Asclepius' death.

Apollo might be fearsome, powerful, and even reckless at times but when he kneels down in supplication, all Zeus sees is his little boy that he loves so much, and he can't help but give in to his requests (well, most of his requests at least). And as far as the text is concerned, and if I'm interpreting this correcltly, Apollo's youth is interestingly tied to his helpful nature because besides using his own powers to help the humans, Apollo can also help them by supplicating to Zeus on their behalf, as Zeus is more likely to grant a request when it's coming from him.
