#Yeah I think that's it ...

I think I'm gonna make a reblog chian of all the little phrases and Apollo uses throughout ToA, now that I'm rereading it. Bc like, he has such a unique way of speaking, and I really wanna dig into it, you know? Ok let's start.

He says "heavens help me" instead of "heaven help me" using the plural the same way demigods do with "oh my gods". I'm guessing this is an acknowledgment of other pantheons? Or I'm looking too far into it, I've just never heard this phrase with a plural "heavens" before.

He calls Cade and Mikey "Ruffians" . And he makes fun of the arrow for being Shakespearean.

He also refers to people as "Mortals" a lot here, which I remembered him doing, but now I want to keep track and see if he keeps that up throughout all the books, or if it peters out near the end.

"I thought how amusing it would be if I could make the snake tattoos around his neck come alive and strangle him to death" I honestly love how violent Apollo's thoughts can be sometimes. Like, you can tell he's someone who has done shit like this before.

I also want to keep track of all the little anecdotes Apollo brings up, so we'll start with the guitar contest against Chuck Berry in 1957, which apparently ended with him getting repeatedly stomped on.

"But something told me this was not she" II love how it's the little things that really get across how old Apollo is. Rick could've easily just said "It wasn't her" or something, but instead he had Apollo phrase this in a way that is far more formal, and more reminiscent of the grammatical patterns of old english. Idk it's just really cool.

(Side note that's not connected to Apollo: Meg's glasses are black? I feel like I've been living a lie, I've been coloring them red for years lol)

God his metaphors are just so striking. Like, I can imagine the phrase "Whatever was left of my pride turned into ice water and trickled into my socks" but I don't want to, because that's such a visceral feeling. I like that Apollo inadvertently proving how poetic he is by making the reader as uncomfortable as possible.

I think I'm gonna start crying out "Horrors!" when I'm upset to. I think I deserve that level of drama.

ahh the classic "My blessings upon you!" Again, I love how every little line characterizes him. Either it's overly formal, like before, or subtly arrogant, like here, or both. It's so fun.

I need to write him saying "Sacred Sibyl!" more. Because that is such a fun little term. Rolls right off the tongue, honestly.

I think I'm gonna leave it there for now, but trust that I will definitely be adding more to this later. Bc Lester-speak is so fun to really look into.

I realised I have never drawn Percabeth alone, so here they are!

Scene from my smartwatermagic fic absinthe

Perseus ushered them both to the table, pulling the chairs for them. Annabeth snorted, untying his 'Fish the Cook' apron before Perseus dived in for a kiss.

Alabaster is enjoying the pancakes (and the view) from out of frame <3

Down tbe podcast>will wood pipeline i started listening to Camp Here and There

Here's my design contribution for now, i'm still figuring out Jedediah (i love this name)

I bestow upon you, SYDNEY!!

So after all that time for rambling about characters

So uh, i think Sydney is fun. I don't necessarily like him (his enthusiastic announcements get tiring after a while,but he's annoying a normal ammount) I think he's very realistically written and well, he's entertaining enough.

JEDDIE MY LOVE, jeez I love their relationship overall, and how (a bit) flawed it is, I like how they resolve conflict with Sydney, but there's definietly something going on with Jeddie and I'm waiting (but also a bit worried) to find out. I also just really like his personality lol

I also really like Rowan, idk just the concept of all these weird ass dream visions really speaks to me (ooo spooky campfire, can't wait to find out what's that about)

Aand i think that's all, the rest I can't really difrentiate, the weird elephant guy seems cool in an odd and strange way, he reminds me of Michael from TMA but that's just brainrot, I wanna know what's his deal is, really cool design concept

I honestly do just presume everyone in the world has watched naruto I just can't comprehend a person that hasn't witnessed rock Lee take off his training weights or seen naruto sit sadly on a swing 50 times so when I see someone say they've never seen naruto I just don't believe them they have definitely watched naruto it is a universal life step

tbh i think the funniest phenomena that's been happening in the last couple years is "youtuber, having gone too deep into the research hole, has been made an investigative journalist against their will"

[dramatic-dolphin]

most cartoonishly evil pro-life talking point i've ever seen was "oh so you think minors should be allowed to get an abortion without parental consent?" wait. wait so you think a parent should be allowed to veto a minor's abortion? you think parents should be allowed to force a 12 year old to give birth? against their will? you think it should be allowed and legal to do that? you think it's a problem that parents are not allowed to force a literal child to give birth?
