Another reason I'm practically Remus Lupin
remus: talking about feelings are important
remus: i won’t do it, but you definitely should
sirius:
actually you have a mama's boy and then you have whatever the hell percy jackson is because that kid PRAYED to his MOM instead of his father who's an actual god .
just thinking about how percy's plans look like he's actively trying to get himself killed because he doesn't take the time to explain his plans to anyone else because they are time-sensitive. and how annabeth never needs him to explain anything because she can recognize battle strategy from a mile away. and how she knows that percy only diverges from a collective plan when he sees a flaw in it and is about to do something that'll confuse the opponent long enough for them to gain the upper hand. and how annabeth will only take over when she sees a flaw in his plan and guide them back on track. and how percy gives her the space to play on her strengths instead of fighting her over it because he trusts her judgment. and how all of this basically happens wordlessly because they understand each other.
Son of Sally Jackson, Supreme Lord Of The Bathroom
Nico: now, with this goddess you introduce yourself using titles, with the most important first. So I'd be Nico di Angelo, ambassador of pluto, wanderer of the Pit.
Percy: ok.
Percy: hi, I'm percy jackson, boyfriend of Annabeth...
the stark contrast between sally's you are not broken. you are singular. you're a miracle. you are my son, to chiron's as a forbidden child of the sea god, you are singular amongst demigods...
whole. singular. alone.
perfect in the eye of his mother, and a tool in the eye of his father. his existence is his mother's world and his father's ruination... unless he can do something about it, but why would he want to do that? poseidon left him alone. to hollow out and fill with godly power and dictated direction when the time came. meanwhile sally was filling percy with love and acceptance. for who he already was and for whoever he would become.
Cardan after the wicked king ending: am i in trouble?
Jude: Take a guess
Cardan: no?
Jude: Take another guess
alcohol is cool but have u ever been someone's sweet villain, darling god, dearest punishment and sweet nemesis? me neither, pass the bottle.
I'll help alongside dad and be the second hardest shipper. Arghhhh. I need itttt.
The fact that I had expected him to be a lil weirded out by Nico liking Percy but still would have supported him. This one is so much more juicy, jekskxidkemfkdk
Oh, I desperately need this Hades-Percy-dynamic in regards to Nico/Percy though.
This Hades? Who saved Sally Jackson, instead of danging her as a bargaining chip right away?
This Hades? Who offered Percy sanctuary and protection, instead of antagonizing him?
And this Percy? Who accepts the quest to retrieve Hades' helmet for him?
This opens the door to such a positive spin on their dynamic - and now imagine Hades' reaction when he learns that his son is hopelessly, obsessively in love with Percy Jackson?
I need Lord Hades, number one Nico/Percy shipper, captain of the ship, in my life right now.
I've been mad since 2022 for him being dead beat and the moment he showed up from the random burnt ice cream, I knew I was a goner
I SPENT EIGHT EPISODES SHITTING ON DEAD-BEAT DAD POSEIDON ONLY FOR RICK RIORDAN TO MAKE ME REGRET MY WORDS IN THE LAST TWO. HONESTLY. I AM SO MAD IT IS NOT EVEN FUNNY. FUCK HIM.
AND FUCK TOBY STEPHENS AS WELL LITERALLY EVERY SINGLE SECOND HE WAS ON SCREEN I DID NOT HAVE A COHERENT THOUGHT RUNNING THROUGH MY BRAIN. THIS IS ALL YOUR FAULT TOBY.
