Can we please talk abt percy apologizing to Luke after he slashed him (because Greeks do the slashy slashy not the stabby) even though Luke was at that point trying to at the very least seriously maim him.

I love how they are showing the fatal flaws before they are heavily explored.

Kronos telling percy his survival is the key to his revival as if this child doesn't have enough of a self sacrificing streak as it is.

This was by far the best episode because even as a book reader I was having heart palpations during the scenes with Luke, and I actually got so scared when sally said it's time to wake up and then Kronos appeared because I was lured into a false sense of security and thought something crazy was abt to go down.

I actually really love how poseidon came to see sally when she called. In the books he always says how much he loved Sally, but since it's from Percy's pov and poseidon can't interact with percy before he knew he was a demi god, it just feels empty because theres no proof. Since the show isn't from Percy's pov though, we get to see proof that poseidon actually did care for Sally and does actually want what's best for percy.

Every part of that flashback was actually heartbreaking and the parallels made it 10x worse

"Some kids are better off with their parent" hurts a lot more when you remember how sally wanted to keep percy with her as long as possible and knew how dangerous it was to hide everything from him.

But at the same time he really isn't safe with either parent because not knowing is just as dangerous as knowing, especially if a monster or angry God finds him first.

Please I thought Hermes' "backdoor" to the underworld was getting them hit by a truck.

Percy saying "I'm okay" with tears in his eyes to comfort Annabeth... but also trying to convince himself he's fine because he is literally a 12 year old abt to sacrifice his life.

Just gonna go cry in this corner over here
