I just saw a reel that says "so Jude just played Kiss, Marry Kill with Cardan's friend group".
You know who else she played that game with? Cardan.
She kissed him, married him and then eventually, kinda kinda, killed him.
So my point here is, Jude is our queen and no body touches her without having to plow us weeds out 1st
new meme format just dropped
actually I do mourn what hoo did to Percy and Nico's relationship because in pjo it was such a hilarious love-hate thing. Like Percy's this long-suffering and exasperated but protective older cousin figure while Nico is Nico and is feral and dramatic and craves Percy's approval while also loathing him at the same time. Like. Amazing stuff at play there.
Then in hoo Percy's like Nico? yeah he can die I guess and listen listen I'm not saying its out of character for Percy to be vengeful or for him to be annoyed by Nico. Like I think its very on point (see him strangling Nico for betraying him in tlo). However, I think the way it should have played out is Percy being fuming at Nico in his head but the moment Jason and Leo are like "Nico's shady so maybe we shouldn't rescue him?" an instant switch flips off and Percy's like "Um only I can talk shit about Nico and we're going to save him because if he's going to die its going to be by my hand"
I really like this version of hades they've gone with in the pjo show
this is a guy who's chilling, he's content in his solitude, he knows that his wife will be home in a matter of weeks
and not only that but the second percy figures it out, he immediately offers sanctuary
I like to see a hades that doesn't stick with the dark, brooding and depressed idea we have of him because this is a man who has been able to remove himself from the toxicity of his family is is clearly all the more happier for it
and the award for most beautiful character arc in all of cinema goes to:
Everything else aside, you know what else is fucked up? How Athena let ECHIDNA, the literal MOTHER of all monsters and the freakin CHIMERA into her "temple". And for what? Annabeth "embarrassed" her??? By letting her demigod quest companion do what he wanted with HIS battle ruins??? AND SHE KNEW THERE WERE CIVILIANS???????
I am having such a hard time picturing me wanting to take the Gods' side in season 5. I just don't see it happening.
1st, we were saying the (kinda) same things from the very beginning just on different wavelengths.
2nd, James died trying to protect Harry too, so what if he couldn't cast the Charm? He was taken by surprise since he trusted Wormtail with his life and he was his best friend, and ik, Lily might have gotten somewhat close to home too, but James had know him for (I think so, I'm not sure) his whole school life, he thought they were Ride or die. And, sadly for James, he had to Die. Because he was betrayed. So, it is understandable that he couldn't cast the Protection spell. Also, who are we kidding? He was no way as smart as out Lovely Lily. So it wouldn't be that much a surprise, yk. And, like, you say there was Severus because of Lily, but weren't there Remus and Sirius because of James? Doesn't that make James's significance just as much? And to think that Harry looked very VERY similar to James, he might have a different kind of feeling about him. So, I think James might have had a similar, if not bigger, presence in Harry's life.
People get mad that Harry named his son after Severus. However I’m leaning more towards the fact that Snape did the most thankless job even after being mistreated all of his life by the people he was saving and working with and the only thanks he gets- the only time anyone has decided to remember a single thing he did- it’s when Harry is naming his spawn.
Severus is not even the spawn’s first name, it’s his second name. Oh yeah and he threw in some half-baked dialogue about how Severus was brave. Wow truly what a fucking treat, what an homage.
And people are complaining that he didn’t name his kid after Hargid (or Lupin I don’t think which is pretty sad and also thankless). And I agree, but instead of switching out Severus’s name, take out James’s.
He named one of his kids James Sirius Potter (which is just so cringe) and like my question is why? Sirius is perfectly understandable but why James? James has done absolutely nothing-and I mean-NOTHING for Harry apart from get compared to him and has basically acted as a sperm donor to Harry. No- not a father, because being a father actually requires raising ur kid- no James’s only merit is that he had a wizard messiah in his ballsack. Brilliant.

cue percy four years later stumbling toward camp jupiter with a very vague memory of a girl he knows he loves but can't for the life of him put a face to a name. because he's physically on his own. but he's never actually without her.
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?
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.
