i will never be able to put into words how much the percy jackson books mean to me... they were a formative experience and they truly helped shape me into the person i am today, so the fact that we're finally getting a good live action makes me feel unwell...

#i will be SO insufferable when this comes out #also the riordianverse in general was my introduction to a lot of different people and cultures #first positive exposure to gay and trans people #first positive exposure to muslim/nonchristian folks #it helped me learn about the world around me #and i know they arent perfect but god they mean so much to me #so im sobbing fr that theyre getting it right...#the bit in tkc where carter mentions that his dad told him that he needs to dress well bc otherwise he's going to be seen as a threat as #a black man in america #the parts in mcga where samirah talks about her faith #specifically when she has magnus take watch for her while shes praying #and alex's whole introduction and the exchange about his/her prounouns #specifically magnus going ''wouldnt it be easier just to go by they/them'' and alex saying ''easier for who?''#all live rent free in my head #as a queer kid stuck at catholic school and surrounded by conservative adults these books saved my life #pjo tv show #percy jackson #percy jackon and the olympians #percy jackson disney+#soda speaks #riordanverse #pjo
