Oh, God forbid the girl with abandonment issues gets jealous. God forbid a woman gets insecure. God forbid a woman be mean 1% of the time she's on screen. God forbid a woman doesn't get along with everyone. God forbid a woman be a little selfish for once in her life. God forbid that a woman roughhouses with another character. God forbid she gives another character a nickname. God forbid a female character have a negative trait that doesn't make her perfect. God forbid women do anything except die and haunt the narrative with how perfect they were and how they were too pure for this cruel and unforgiving world.
And God forbid she's a woman of color

So I'm just realizing that the quest for Artemis in TTC was hella dangerous for the questers because it was during the Winter Solstice, where monsters are most active and more powerful. Especially in Grover's pov. He's travelling with Zöe Nightshade (a hunter/former Hesperid), and 3 (forbidden) kids of the big three gods that he had previously found, namely: Thalia Grace (daughter of Zeus), Percy Jackson (son of Poseidon), and Bianca di Angelo (daughter of Hades). Just imagine the amount of monsters trying to get to them.

Being a mythological being, like Zoe or Daedalus, and interacting with Percy during one of his quests must be so unsettling, because you barely know and maybe not even like this kid, but he's still going to have some weird, prophetic dreams, which show him your entire life story.

One thing thats always gets a smile/giggle outta me in DP is how all the teenagers are like really self aware about teenager tropes? Dash recognizing that hes peaking in high school, Danny's little "hello misplaced aggression", Jazz's everything all the time.

I'm not gonna raise my expectations (it's Disney) but the Zootopia 2 trailer actually slaps
#as much as I dislike Disney as a company and they've been putting out bad media lately#I also know that it is not an monolith and some teams are still made up of people who care about their work SO#I am going to watch the movie *cautiously*#yelling into the void

chalice of the gods is so interesting to me because rick wrote some fucking deep cuts as it comes to representing depression as a older teenager with learning disabilities who's had terrible traumas brushed off casually by the people in their lives.
percy never mentions hobbies, and he doesn't have a major in mind for NRU. he wants to go to college because annabeth is there. he likes the idea of a younger sibling, but can't help but feel like it might be better for his mom to try a new start without him, with a new husband and a new child as opposed to the abusive family dynamic "both he and gabe" forced her into. because he implies he believes he was at fault too!
he's lost!! he's alone, because the system that was supposed to support him when he was a KID has failed him throughout his teenage years! his narration plays it for jokes all the time!
he doesn't have friends at his new school, and so far, he hasn't had meaningful conversations with anyone besides grover, annabeth, and like... KIND OF his mom? again, no hobbies, no plans, no Friends??? no acquaintances?? he's on the swim team, but we don't even learn his coach's name, his teammates' names, what he likes doing IN swim.
it's representation that's honestly hard to read?? this feeling of not knowing what you're doing?? of being a failure all your life and feeling like you're not about to stop now??
and it would be great if rick did ANY OF IT on FUCKING PURPOSE
#actually I suspect that is the thing Rick DOES do on purpose#remember the whole universe started as a way for his son who has ADHD and dyslexia to be a hero#and that same son now works to help kids in his situation#so I think this is a topic that Rick understands very well

I am begginggg action movie creators to realize that there are more options for female heroes than just "damsel in distress" or "sexy lady in a tight suit who can take down men 10x her size"
#it's okay to admit that a 5'2" woman action hero won't beat a 6' buff dude in a fight#let her use different strengths instead! that doesn't involve her seducing anyone! give her character some dimension!#a woman shouldn't have to fight like a man in order to be a strong female character.#going from one cookie-cutter female character in old action movies#to a “more feminist” cookie-cutter female character in movies today#isn't much of an improvement...#yelling into the void
