oh the Way grover worked ares toward agreeableness while flattering him, then got him talking about the solstice. absolutely love it when the “nice” character uses the assumption of their goodness to pull out the smoothest, nastiest manipulation to further their goals while still remaining good at heart

I love the scenes with Grover and Ares in the new episode.
I love how the TV show built up Grover's character. This 24 year old who as a nature spirit can feel and see the natural world dying because of things like war against the natural world is talking to the god of war himself and praising war because it's inevitable. He knows that war is not good and he doesn't want it to happen but he also understands that war is necessary sometimes.
Then there's him basically realising stuff about war himself while also trying to gaslight information out of Ares by showcasing his deep sense of empathy towards what the gods are doing to their own family and kids. And using his deep understanding of nature to showcase to Ares that nature is not all flowers and butterflies. It's brutal.
It's so nice to see Grover being brave and cunning as he's usually stereotyped as the scared mom of the group. He knows that Ares can kill him in like a second but he will try to gaslight him. He's not gonna chicken out if there's a chance that the information he manipulate's out of Ares can help his friends and solve the lighting thief conspiracy thereby ending a war that might occur. He's brave and smart in his own ways.
AND the scenes are also a great way to help introduce the gods, their behaviour, and the solstice to the show watchers.
