an alternate (significantly sillier) way to get Izzy onto the revenge in S1E2:

[camera shot of The Revenge & Queen Anne conveniently anchored or beached on opposite sides of the island]

Izzy: alright, crew, you have TWO HOURS to mess around while we trade with the islanders. I expect you all to be on your best behaviour, and back on time, or we LEAVE YOU BEHIND, YOU UNDERSTAND?

[the crew chorus in agreement like a bunch of school kids]

Izzy: Fang, I expect you to count them back. It'll be bad for moral if we actually leave anyone behind

[play the episode, buying the hostages, dealing with Stede, etc]

Fang: OK, that's cargo all loaded and the last of the crew back aboard, we are good to sail!

[cue a very slow, drawn out scene of them raising the anchor]

Fang: you know, I can't help but feel we've forgotten something

Ivan: You know you worry about these things, I'm sure it's fine. Can't be anything important anyway, Izzy would have yelled at you about it by now.

Fang: ...

Ivan: ...

Both: IZZY

Izzy, who had gone back with the extra gold for the unexpected hostages, now watching his ship sail away: YOU TWATS!!!! USELESS FUCKING FUCKERS!!!!!! YOU FORGOT ME!!

Your blog is the only blog where I feel safe enough asking this question. What do you think of Percy Jackson fans who feel as though they and the series have a moral superiority to Harty Potter ? Obviously, Harry Potter and its author are laden with questionable and sometimes straight-up hateful takes and views. But the way PJO fans constantly compare the two, its authors (even though RR is far from flawless), and the two MCs (ignoring how the two both share similarities in the fact that they are both traumatised, abused, angry teenage boys). I'm sorry that this ask got so long, but this has been annoying me for a while now.

This is an interesting question - for one, fandom fights over superiority is a concept that has been around for ages and has never been constructive. PJO and HP fandoms have been fighting in that exact way (and it has gone both ways!) for literal decades (remember, PJO turns 20 this year) so this isn't new, it's just taken on a moral flavor. Let's go over some things though (but please keep in mind i never got into HP and never read the books or fully watched the movies so my knowledge of HP is primarily pop culture absorption/secondhand from my family and friends):

Are either series perfect? No. HP absolutely is full of hateful sentiments and JKR is a hateful person and I do not respect her for that. Disney's marketing recently has absolutely fully leaned into trying to put Rick above her as a moral paragon and emphasizing how progressive he is and his support of diversity in middle grade series, despite some failings to reflect that in the actual text. Are Rick and JKR equally bad? Definitely not. Rick has had tangible good influence on adhd/dyslexia awareness that very directly impacted people like me as a neurodivergent kid going through school in the 2000s. JKR meanwhile has directly negatively impacted trans laws internationally very recently.

Rick absolutely isn't perfect, but he's vocally supportive, has made a lot of effort in the past to be inclusive, and still attempts to do so. Most of his issues simply stem from his own unaddressed internalized bigotry/biases and his research on varying topics not being great (plus poor management decisions such as not hiring a sensitivity reader actually fit for the story he's trying to tell). But he's not hateful. JKR is. JKR is very vocally hateful and bigoted and this is absolutely reflected in her work as well even in earlier HP. They are comparable in that they are both middle grade authors of easily two of the most popular middle grade fantasy (or specifically hidden world fantasy) series out right now. They are not equivalent in the slightest in their bigotry or tangible damage.

In terms of Percy versus Harry, I personally don't think they're very comparable. They share some similarities, but mostly just in that they're both the protagonists of their stories and thus serve protagonist purposes. Beyond that their use within the narrative is pretty different functionally. Their worlds' magic systems are not comparable. The hidden world aspect in both their universes isn't even comparable, since in PJO the "hidden world" aspect is very different from most hidden world fantasy formats because the entire point is that it's functionally not a hidden world. The characters themselves are very different as well - Percy's personality and the way he behaves and reacts to his environment is absolutely nothing like Harry's.

Most of the anti-HP-in-general sentiments stem from wanting to cut off JKR's notoriety, which I think is valid to want to do. And I do think there are a lot of issues with continuing to support JKR's work especially in ways that functionally promote her work or support her financially. Obviously, we will never be able to scrub HP from the cultural zeitgeist. It's just not feasible and I'm very anti-book burning so I do think it's important to acknowledge the role HP has had in pop-culture alongside acknowledging its harmful materials. HP is a text you absolutely can't death-of-the-author your way out of because a lot of the vitriol is baked into the text and worldbuilding in very overt ways - and there are plenty of other pop-culture staple novels like this. But fandom in general, at least true fandom and not mainstream fandom, is so obscure most of the time that I don't think, so long as people are not ignoring negative themes of the source material and are being thoughtful as they navigate engaging with it, that it is an inherently bad thing for HP fandom to just exist at all. It's never going to just stop existing no matter what people do. And HP fandom are not the only ones who should be thoughtful about how they engage with their source material - PJO fandom is not exempt from examining some of the problematic aspects in our own text and figuring out how to be respectful with those topics. It's just a lot easier for PJO fandom to tune it out without it being noticed because there's less of it and it's (at least sometimes) less overt. Honestly if HP fandom decided to go more down the path of a fandom like Warriors or Miraculous Ladybug, where the average sentiment is more along the lines of "Oh god no don't read/watch the source material it sucks/we stopped paying attention to it year ago and it's not relevant at all to what we're up to. We're over here functionally rewriting everything from the ground up/doing our own thing" I would very much support them in that endeavor. I do think there is merit in limiting promotion of the HP source material as much as possible, though.

Hopefully that all makes at least some amount of sense.

Iris my love... gotta have the girly secondary fursona. For gender time. Actually think she's being demoted to fursona number 3 but idk we'll see about the pecking order when refs are all done. She was waaay overdue for a redesign oh shit I just realized I didn't put a color palette on here. Oh well ig too late for that now I am not rearranging that bg

[skullzy20]

some Duviri lore bits that I've been thinking about a lot recently ever since I had these conversations

[vaesoup]

i lowkey hate that mouthwashing has got the attention it has because now right wing grifters are getting ahold of it and defending gross people who entirely misinterpret the game without knowing the source material. the whole game has been fandomized and joked upon. i rarely see a serious discussion on it and people ARENT getting into it because of the actual game's content, but because of how watered down the current artworks makes it seem. like no. if you play the game youre gonna get hit with a story of a man who raped a girl and because he couldnt kill her he was going to kill EVERYONE, and failed, and so everyone but the captain dies in other ways because he, (the captain), failed to prevent the rapist being wreckless and having him put in charge. there is your basic uncensored summary. dont get into it because of the influx of drawings of daisuke in a thong, or the "woke crowd" reasonably getting upset seeing anya so explicitly sexualized in a game where her being sexualized is a major plot point and NOT in a good way. dont get into it because curly or jimmy or any of them are attractive. please only try out the game if you want immersive, beautiful storytelling about a heartbreaking and gruesome situation.

don’t think about peterpatter angst with that audio from adventure time that’s like “i was in love with you, okay? and you didn’t love me back. now im ready to move on, and it’s like you’re trying to build me up all over again! well im done! im done.” and then reggie poofs away and he’s sobbing from the second he said i was in love with you and lukes left in the studio to process and doesn’t even realize he’s crying too but that doesn’t matter now because he’s gotta find reggie. sorry

The Hex but the stolen artifact is magical HRT and instead of killing Lionel everybody in the Six Pint Inn becomes transgender and fully transitions instantly

[moeblob]

Not sure how important this is to people but:

If I draw something that you think should be tagged for whatever reason (alcohol mention, cussing, a specific ship) you can totally send an ask to say so! I don't think much of it when I draw it but if anything topically is something you would rather I tag... please tell me. I am just drawing what makes me happy most days but that doesn't mean I want you to be uncomfortable looking at it!

Also in regards to ships: I can try to use my best judgment for it but I'm prone to enjoying banter and stupid/silly conversations that are not intended as romantic. So I do draw people interacting that I might ship but in a platonic (to me) interaction and I don't think it would count as tag-worthy for it.
