thinking about how they said grover was affected the most out of everyone bc he was alone and how nico and bianca stayed for 70 years inside that hotel and didn't forget each other bc they were always within reach and how that little detail makes their story even more devastating bc they got through it together and the moment they got out they get separated and then bianca never comes back

[grishaxverse]

It’s going to take him 8 books to realise that he can use riptide to write

It's funny seeing people say that "we would have all joined Luke" with every new episodes that comes out that shows how awful the Gods are as parents when the point of the books and Percy is that Luke WAS right but he chose the wrong way to do things. Luke joined another evil to punish the Gods, betrayed his friends and basically only family and caused them pain and even the death of some of them.

Percy said fuck the Gods but he was against sacrificing others senselessly. He still hated how tings were but he fought so he could make changes in a positive direction instead of burning everything and everyone in his way.

So of course Luke was justified in his hate for the Gods and the way they carelessly abandoned and ignored their children, we have always known that. Percy always agreed to that. But in the end Luke himself realized he was wrong in how he tried to change that.

yep, that's my percy jackson

thinking about Nico adjusting to letting himself miss and long for the people he loves. based on these bits from the sun and the star:

" As Nico and Will followed the trogs, he thought about how much he missed Hazel. He was learning to make peace with that feeling. It was okay for him to miss people because that meant he wanted them around in his life. That idea was *very* new for him- he was used to either pushing people away or watching them recoil from his presence." *

" That was the most surreal thing of all... Was he happy? Nico wasn't very familiar with the sensation, but he couldn't deny that he felt wonderful in Will's presence. He even longed for the son of Apollo when they were apart. A funny thing had happened as the two grew closer: Nico suddenly understood all those cheesy, sappy love songs he'd always hated."

watching percy pet that white gecko in ep2 with the biggest fricken grin on his face single-handedly cured my depression for the rest of the calendar year

listen like. people are totally entitled to their opinions and criticisms of the pjo show but. sometimes it’s just hard to hear/read. I know the show isn’t perfect but seeing the cast & producers talk about it and seeing the level of love and excitement theyve put into the work, idk, I feel for them having people tear it to shreds. criticising the author himself for not adapting it well when he’s doing something different with a new medium, saying they’re sorry for the kids who love the books but have to act in this “terrible” show as if these kids aren’t THRILLED by the opportunity and just so committed to giving the show their best.

(watch the behind the scenes documentary. seriously.)

again totally valid criticisms & opinions!! but you win some and lose some in an adaptation. eg. trying to expand on themes, keep a consistent tone, appeal to a broader audience (including those of us who loved the books as kids but are now!!! adults!!!), keep within budget, etc etc all these things involve some trade offs. sure some of the humour and goofiness has been lost but we also get amazing beautifully acted scenes that really expand on core themes of family or who is a monster etc etc.

speaking on a personal level I have had a hard time these past few months and this show became a genuine escape, a way for me to connect with my sister watching the episodes together, a rediscovery of my inner 12 year old who waited so long for this. and I know there are people who are like me and they had certain expectations and that’s why they’re disappointed and that’s so valid, but it’s a lot of negativity sometimes, & I just wish we could give a little grace bc making a creative thing is hard, and pleasing everyone with that creative thing is impossible, and most of all, maybe we could revel a little bit more in this unique complex piece of work that lots of people poured their hearts into with nothing but the best of intentions.

percy: i don't think nico's ever gone to sleep before 5am, and its really just concerning at this point

percy: let's not even talk about jason. he wakes up at 4:45am on the dot, every morning, without an alarm clock. that's terrifying.

"i gave my blood, sweat, and tears for this." for Tally Carmichael?? 🖤🖤🖤

Oooo, I know what to do with this one!

i gave my blood, sweat, and tears for this + Tally Carmichael

“Percy, what the HELL are you doing here?!”

The smile that was on Percy Jackson’s face dropped at the sight of the unhappy faces he came upon. It had been weeks since he had heard from Tally, and though he knew that she needed space after their breakup, Percy was worried. Even though they weren’t boyfriend and girlfriend anymore, Tally was still one of his closest friends.

But, right now, Tally wasn’t very happy to see him.

Neither were her friends to be honest, maybe with the exception of the redhead who was staring him down appraisingly. Percy immediately recognized Scott McCall, Stiles Stilinski, and Erica Reyes from the last time he visited Beacon Hills, and all three of them were giving him the death glare. There was a dark-haired girl with pale skin who was also giving him the death glare as well, and a douchey-looking guy who looked at him like he didn’t give a damn who he was.

Okay, maybe he should’ve listened to Annabeth and not come…

“I was worried about you,” admitted Percy. “We haven’t talked in awhile, and you haven’t answered any of my texts…”

“Maybe because she didn’t want to talk you, had you thought about that?” said the brunette. Her eyes were glaring daggers at him, and it made Percy seriously worry that she was going to chop off certain parts of his anatomy.

Erica furiously nodded in agreement with the brunette. “You really are living up to that moniker of yours, aren’t you Jackson?”

“Hey!” butted in the douchey-looking guy, looking angrily over at the blonde. “What moniker? I don’t have a moniker!”

“Not you Whittemore!” she snapped at him.

“Guys!”

All heads turned towards Tally, who was glaring at everyone and her bright red hair was somehow moving on its own, making it look like blazing fire. “I’m going to talk to Percy alone, so don’t even think about listening in or I will cut you. I’m talking to you, Whittemore!”

Whittemore rolled his eyes at that, but the brunette grabbed both his and the redhead’s hands to pull them both over to the chalkboard while Erica did the same with Scott and Stiles.

Once she made sure that everyone wasn’t listening in, Tally turned back to Percy and the disapproval that was on her face when seeing him come into the classroom faded into resignation. “Okay Percy, be honest. Why are you really here?”

Percy felt his blood run hot in indignation. Does she seriously not believe that he was worried about her?

“I was honest! I was worried about you when you weren’t answering my texts and calls!”

“Goddamn it Percy, I told you that I needed space! I gave my blood, sweat, and tears for this relationship, and all I got in return was you falling for another girl!”

That made Percy shut his mouth, the guilt he had been feeling since they broke up coming back tenfold. “I’m sorry, I know that you wanted space. But Tally, you have to understand that you’re one of my closest friends. I felt like I was losing you as a friend, and I didn’t want that to happen!”

A sob bubbled its way up Tally’s throat, because Percy was one of her closest friends as well and she didn’t want to lose their friendship either. “I don’t want that to happen either, but to preserve our friendship, you have to let me go. Please let me go, Percy.”

The look on his face was so sad, it was like he finally realized that this was the end for them. “Is that what you want?”

She nodded, and this time, it was his turn to feel resignation. The only thing Percy could think of to do was to pull her into him and hug her tightly. She hugged him back, and both felt their hearts cracking because they knew.

They knew this was the end of them.

[moncuries]

nico, i've seen a lot of brave things. but what you just did? that was maybe the bravest.

[mioakem]

When u randomly remember how horribly tragic Jason and Leo’s stories r because they knew that one of them had to die in order to save the world but Leo thought he could defy the prophecy and find a way for both of them to live and Jason assumed Leo was dead and then found out he was alive but they didn’t see each other for months and then when Leo was finally able to see this best friend again he finds out that Jason had died because in the end one of them had to
