sure the greek demigods are easily able to learn ancient greek but what they actually speak amongst themselves is a fucked up Camp Dialect™ that has evolved seperate from modern greek for the past couple hundred years

if we look at the original timeline (aka annabeth and percy being born in 1993) then 2009 was a big year for annabeth bcus not only did the battle of manhattan take place and she finally started dating percy, but also minecraft came out and i think that would be a big deal to her

help my extended family leave palestine.

edit: decided to add my family friend's gofundme link here too. once again. please read through the notes. remember that these are real people, who are living through this as you read. this is my family. theyre all amazing people and i love them dearly stop scrolling, and take a minute to read about their story. i cannot stress enough that, when it comes to donations, every little bit counts. if you feel guilty and powerless about the situation in palestine, and you want a way to help, here it is. please, if you have even a little bit to spare, consider donating. If you don't have anything to give, at least reblog to spread the message.

love how each pjo book takes place in the span of a week. so like every summer percy has one crazy week and then the rest of his year is normal

percy's scars look like waves on his skin. they ripple when he moves, as if you're looking at him from underwater. it's impossible to imagine him standing still, because even if he does, the way the light hits his skin makes it look alive. alive like the ocean, alive like waves that crash on a beach, alive like a waterfall, like a whirlpool, like a waterspout, like a hurricane. alive like a riptide, pulling you in for a closer look before dragging you under.

jason and thalia's scars look like lightning. lichtenberg figures grow from their injuries, dance across their skin in the light. you can watch it happen, if you look closely. a cut, the blood striking across their skin like lightning in the sky, and if you listen closely, count the seconds, you may even hear thunder. even after the wound is long since healed, the scar shimmers with electricity.

nico's scars look necrotic. his wounds darken, the surrounding skin growing leathery to the touch. it never spreads, never goes farther than each wound that cannot simply sew itself back together, but it is a reminder that he does not quite belong with the living.

hazel doesn't scar. Hazel is borne of earth and treasure, a child of cursed beauty and value. nothing can damage a diamond, nothing is harder, stronger. perhaps she gets an injury, perhaps something does manage to pierce her skin. in time, there will be no trace of it.

Percy strolling into his 8am class after his 7th quest-related excused absence because the "gods just won't give him a break haha" vs his roman classmates that have not been given the time a day by a single god once in their entire life

“how is annabeth head of athena cabin” have you ever met an autistic 12 year old girl. she’s running that shit like the navy

[expandoducks]

how are they gonna adequately prepare whatever child they cast for nico di angelo. it has got to be impossible for someone that young to give informed consent about playing the saddest wettest loser in all of human history. like hey kid i know youre sprightly and all of ten, but we need you to be in all five stages of grief at all times. remember, your mother was killed in fascist italy, youre eighty years old, and now youre in love with the guy who killed your sister. say this next line like you know what it's like to be an ear of corn.

My father, he just... didn't show. I mean, ignoring me is one thing, but he doesn't get to ignore you. I'm gonna make him come down here. I'm gonna make him see me. I'm gonna make him see us both.

PERCY JACKSON AND THE OLYMPIANS (2023 -) I 1.02

[expandoducks]

I can guarantee that the biggest perk Percy enjoyed most from the Curse of Achilles was literally just being able to skateboard without having to worry about eating pavement.

Cause like as I’m sure that anyone who has a skateboard can tell you - sliding across the asphalt is not a pleasant experience and Sk8ter boi Percy Jackson would love not injuring himself every other week from simply wrecking on his skateboard.

No more helmets or pads and what not. Fell off will you were grinding down the railing and tumbled down a flight of concrete stairs?? You want to try skating down that San Francisco hill and keep the skin on your body??? Literally doesn’t even matter anymore. Do it. 

Like I always head canon that Percy takes on the curse again and honestly I’d live for a scenario that he’d do it just so he could skateboard like that again.
