the amount of affection you get for percy jackson, the character, from reading those books (no matter how long ago it was), is insane. if riordan did nothing else right, he made percy so real, wrote him so well, that readers feel like they know him and they read it for percy. we watch the show and we love walker easier because we loved percy. it lasts. that's good characterization.

the way in which this passage altered my brain chemistry as an 11 year old needs to be studied by science

one of the funniest things about percy exploring the mythic world is that unlike other children’s fantasy stories, there is absolutely no starry-eyed wonder, instead percy’s just going “ah fuck” at the tenth vaguely greek looking structure or yet another unexplainable magical occurrence. more than excitement at discovering this new world, he is just so tired of all the bullshit surrounding him 24/7 and i think it’s just so valid.

You are a reader and therefore, a thinker, an observer, a living soul who wants more of this human experience.
