Am I being selfish and vain and useless and over dramatic if I can't forgive my mother for making me hate me and making ms realize just how meaningless life is? I mean, she obviously didn't mean to. I think she's trying to make us closer to each other. My dad is too. But suddenly having them just feels like they're here to hurt me again. It just feels like as they're trying to get inside the walls, that they're here to hunt again. And I know they're not. They're really trying. I see that. But. Idk. I think I really hate them for not being there for me and for making me feel like I didn't deserve the air I breathed, that it would be so good if I died because then no resources wasted. But they're trying to make it better. I think. So I should just feel greatful, right? I shouldn't feel like they owe an apology, right? Idk wtf to do. Is my feeling this way allowed? Is it valid? Is it OK?
The desperation in annabeths “wait” when Percy shuts the door. When she screams “Percy don’t do this to me” my HEART!!! THE SIGH OF RELIEF WHEN PERCY KNOWS SHELL BE OKAY. Honestly Percy outsmarting Annabeth to introduce his fatal flaw is possibly the best way to introduce who he is. They shattered my heart with this scene.
*gasp*
I HAD THOUGHT ABOUT THE WEDDING DRESS BUT THE ISLAND OMG YESSSS
personally i think they should make the s2 announcement via video with aryan in a wedding dress, leah in a fancy white dress, and the two of them holding a little guinea pig. yknow. to confuse the new fans.
red string of fate au where james is sick and tired™ of having to wait for destiny to bring his soulmate to him.
especially because in this universe the intensity of the red in your string shows if you are close to your other half (bright red when you are really close, but a maroon-ish color when far)
also, only you can see your own string, and the only part that's truly visible is what's tied on your pinky finger and a bit of the loose part, but it's just a couple inches of it that then turns invisible so it's not a bother.
so! james' string is bright bright red, like BRIGHT red. his soulmate is close but he has no way to find out who it is until "the right moment" which is when he and his soulmate get to hold hands for the first time.
james tried to hold hands with EVERYONE (who was willing and with a bright string as well, he's not daft) on the gryffindor tower, his quidditch team, and even some students from other houses who he has classes with.
results: nothing.
he gets so riled up and impatient, that one day he just snaps.
which means: he goes to the great hall for breakfast (because everyone is there), sits at the very beginning of the gryffindor table (to have everyone in his field of vision), grabs as much of his red string as he can (so, right before it becomes invisible) and. pulls. like. a. motherfucker.
two things happen in like two seconds.
one. regulus black, who was just about to leave the great hall, is yanked backwards and barely caught by barty before he hits the ground. his arm painfully stretched to james' direction.
two. before james can finish processing that what the fuck, regulus black is his soulmate and sirius is going to murder him. regulus manages to stand back up properly, stares at his pinky like it has personally offended him, and. also. pulls. like. a. motherfucker.
so james also gets yanked, only that, as he was still stunned from what just happened, he gets pulled out of his seat and dragged for maybe five steps towards regulus. arm painfully stretched towards him.
sirius, who has been watching everything, loses his shit.
And this all comes down to his fatal flaw, Unwavering Loyalty. Something he's commited his mind to? Baby seal needs to stay loyal to the stuff. Someone he loves needs saving? He's tye strongest. Someone doing something he believes is wrong? He gonna fight because the stuff affects his people too. I just- you get what I'm saying?
pissed off percy is a determined percy. because the second he saw his mom encased in gold and being held captive in the underworld. it was go time. he gained the upper hand on hades in under ten minutes. whooped ares's ass in under three. returned zeus's bolt and told him off like twenty minutes later. and then told kronos to stop being a coward and come find him. no one's fucking do it like our boy.
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 .
I'm watching the 4th episode right now and I just love how they're already building up Percy's whole "They might be gods but this is a shit way to treat kids. So, fuck you" Like, a 12 year old just lying there awake after a nightmare and discussing this with the smartass girl who he thought would have never befriended him.
And then said smartass girl stating that it's just bow everyone works, not just the gods??? Like, I love how Percy was treated so good that he could say fuck you to the gods but then I also hate how Annabeth just accepted it, because arghhhhhhhh
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...
Can we all see how Athena blaming Annabeth for Percy’s antics is a representation of real problems in the real world? That today's girls have it harder than boys? That daughters have it harder than sons? Girls have to try much harder to be recognized as valuable. There is a reason why there are posts like "My father is the worst man in the world - and I am his favorite daughter". There is a reason why people talk about how strict mothers are with their daughters. How they push them around, even though the son does much less. NOT WITHOUT REASON when SA is talked about is it said , "or did she not tempt him?". Not without reason. These are the realities. And I’m pretty sure Riordan is aware
Things Percy Jackson remembers in Son of Neptune:
Annabeth exists
I met Annabeth at a camp
Annabeth and I kiss sometimes
Fuck Ares
