Just finished the Lotus episode!!! Here's my thoughts!
1)Luke calling them an old married couple, Icon 😂. Also, Annabeth having to be like, "Maybe don't ask the person with even more daddy issues than you or me, if we should go talk to his dad or not" 😂
2) Grover worrying about the animals and not the people was kinda of iconic, ngl
3)My sister was so confused about Annabeth & Luke's relationship, like she thought they were biological siblings and was confused 😭😭
4) Hermes!! Omg, Hermes!! I will never accept Lin Manuel Miranda slander ever again!! He's just a victim of his own creation, and it's Fandom because he is an amazing actor!! He delivered as Hermes!! The tensio, the fact that Luke hates him, but he loves him and still hurt him anyway (even wothou meaning to... I can't 😭. I need to see him and Luke interact 😭😭
5) Augustus was so sad!! It sounded like Ferdinand wanted to also find Augustus (not just Pan) and my heart hurts to know they never found each other cause Ferdinand only made it to Medusa while Augustus only made it to the Lotus hotel (none or them found Pan 😭😭)
6)Grover forgetting everything but still being 100% down to help Percy and Annabeth 🥺. Also him being worried that they're late because of him and Percy making him feel better 😭
7) Percy driving was a mood! Like, that's exactly how I felt when I drove for the first time 😂
8) They missed the deadline 😭😭. Percy didn't get to meet his dad, but he still gave him enough pearls to save his mom 😭😭😭. I need them to meet!!!
All in all, I absolutely loved this episode!!! I think it may be my favorite so far! The tension, the character background/lore showing up, the emotions!! I loved it!!!

I’m sure it’s been said but I am loving how they’ve presented Bathena as a couple this season
Bobby especially is so incredible. He’s funny and he’s supportive (investigating Lola & Norman with Athena) and he’s clearly so very comfortable and confident in his relationship.
He calmly but firmly let’s Athena know that he sees what she’s doing (avoiding him for whatever reason) and he doesn’t appreciate it and isn’t gonna let it go, but also apologizes if he’s been pushy about cruise activities and works to find a compromise so they can spend time together. It’s clear that they are a stable and established couple who have been together for a while, know each other well, and don’t think a disagreement is the be-all end-all of their relationship !
Bobby being like ‘you’ve never had a migraine last less than three days’! Like! He knows her!!!
And despite their clear issues going on, they’re slowly starting to discuss it. They’re not mean or angry or raising voices. It’s so respectful and such a ‘whatever is going on, we’ll get through it as a team’ dynamic.
also Bobby is such a simp who loves his wife so much he doesn’t even care what they do on the cruise as long as it’s together
obvs don’t love whatever Athena is avoiding with them but am very much looking forward to learning more and watching them navigate this!!! Together! In love! As partners!
Like! This is thee couple that the rest likely take some cues from! Probably Hen least of all, as she’s been with Karen longer than Bobby and Athena have been together, but I digress! For new viewers especially this is such a solid showing of their relationship. I’m so excited

To me, children of Zeus are natural strategists in the same way children of Athena are. But the difference is that Zeus and his kids have multiple plans and contingencies if a plan fails at a certain point and needs to shift gears. So like they employ Plan A and get all the way to stage four of the plan when suddenly there's a deviation from expectations for whatever reason. So they shift gears from Plan A1 to Plan A2, which accounted for this deviation and continue on.
Athena and her kids, however, come up with one solid, somewhat broader plan and refuse to deviate from it at all unless there is literally no other choice, in which case they will improvise quickly and efficiently to accomodate the change and get back on track to the original plan.

frank turning into a dragon in the mark of athena evacuation when it was the beginning of the book and when it wasn't even his pov, even though we as readers and camp jupiter as a collective had no clue he could DO that...you really had to be there. even annabeth was like HUH. later books have people fixating on his ability to be a swarm of bees but where has frank seen a dragon before that he could imitate? he'd never shapeshifted in his life until the day before and offpage decided to do a mythological creature as opposed to an animal. he just came up with that!
