Louder, For The People In The Back!

Love it!

I made a silly little riordanverse pride parade!!

Annabeth: Is this about his crush on Luke, I thought everyone knew about that?

Thalia: Seems like everyone but kelp face over here *points at Percy, who is silently contemplating his sexual awakening*

Nico: Yeah, he thought his Bi Awakening was Jason *looking at Mythomagic card with a bored look*

*Will walks in and spots Percy before hugging Nico from behind*

Will: What's wrong with Percy?

Nico: He's realizing he had a crush on Luke.

Will: *looks at Nico in confusion*He didn't know? How did he not notice that the camp was making bets on if he would end up with Annabeth or Luke?

*Percy's head snaps up*

Percy: *In a high pitched confused tone* What?!

Nico: You were busy with the whole 'dying before your sixteenth birthday thing'.

Leo: Wow, little Percy sounds really funny.

*Thalia,Nico, and Will smirk*: Oh, if only you knew

*Annabeth shaking her head with a smile*

*Percy walking away with a bewildered look on his face*

*Piper walks in*

Piper: Okay, who broke Percy?

(Sorry to have made this really long )

Piper: Percy, what's your type?

Percy: Annabeth

Piper: That's sweet.

Thalia: It's also a lie, his type is blonds

Percy: That's not true!

Thalia: The first person you ever had a crush on was a blond man.

Percy: I met Annabeth long before I met Jason.

Leo: *spews water* Jason???

Thalia: I was talking about Luke.

Percy: I never had a crush on Luke!?!

Thalia: That's bullshit.

Leo: Are we gonna talk about the Jason thing or... No....? Okay.

Percy: No it's not!

Connor: It most definitely is.

Percy: What?

Travis: You blushed every time you were around him.

Percy: I- I did not!

Clarisse: Yeah you did.

Percy: No....?

Nico: Even the way you talked about him sometimes I could tell you had a crush on him at one point.

Percy: *flabbergasted* I- I huh???

Percy: Did I????

Annabeth: *walks over* Hey Perce can you- What did you guys do to him?

Percy: *wide eyed staring at the ground, mumbling incoherently*

Thalia: He's having an existential crisis, give him a minute.

#fucked up soulmates <3

That's the whole reason that so many people, specifically teens, connect with these books. Older people who read them see their teenage self and realize that their teenage years were just as valid as people who partied. And for teens, they can see that not being the stereotypical partying teen is okay, because your life is just as fun and full of meaning. Because some people realize the secrets of life in a crowded room with their friends around them and others find them at 3 am in their room as they listen to music and read. Every life experience is valid. Everyone has their own journey.

“Heartstopper is too puritanical, real teens don’t act like that, they party, drink, have sex and are wild”

Proceeds to ignore introverted teens.

Proceeds to ignore asexual teens.

Proceeds to ignore alosexual teens who aren’t that interested on sex.

Proceeds to ignore teens who have trauma involving intimacy or substance abuse.

Proceeds to ignore the neurodivergent teens that aren’t comfortable at parties.

Proceeds to ignore the neurotypical teens who also aren’t comfortable at parties.

Proceeds to ignore teens who don’t engage in these activities due to religious reasons.

Proceeds to ignore teens who don’t engage in these activities simply because they don’t want to.

Proceeds to ignore every experience that isn’t yours.

Bi and proud. My space is a place that everyone should be proud to be themselves in!

Reblog is this is a safe space for the identities theses flags represent pls follow too

Hehehe I’m a demiboy <3

Oh, and that adds up with him knowing ancient Greek in the show. Like, he knows he's half Greek and his mom teaches him so that they can all speak together. Also, maybe he's heard of Thalia, like his dad talking about how she was a hero but saying that she died in an explosion or shooting or something, so when Annabeth talks about her being a tree, he's like 'my cousin died, she's not a tree'. Adding to the disbelief he feels. Oh, and when he meets Medusa has a whole other meaning, like he is talking about what he did to her and him saying that his dad had changed but not justifying his dad's actions, saying that he is not his father. Or when Hermes talks about wanting to be a better father for Luke, Percy would be like: I didn't even know that Peter was my father and he still supported me and my mother, so don't give me that bull-. Also, Gabe wouldn't be in the picture, as Percy would be protected enough, as no monster would ever mess with Peter. I have so many ideas.

Percy Jackson AU where instead of Poseidon being absent in Percy’s life, he helps raise him. But Percy doesn’t know his dad is Poseidon. He thinks Peter Johnson is a marine biologist and a fisherman who is frequently on long business trips for his job. Maybe Sally and Poseidon are divorced, and she marries Smelly Gabe or maybe they’re still together, who knows.

Just, instead of Percy being in anger at the gods for neglecting their children he’s in disbelief that his very normal father is Poseidon. They go on fishing trips together all the time and he dresses like a tacky Hawaiian tourist. Not a god. He refuses to believe this despite Grover being a satyr, and Mr. Brunner being a centaur.

I’m not sure if Percy should know all of the gods or not. Maybe he knows Mr. D already as Cousin Dexter. Cousin Dexter has shown up a couple of times in his life. He’s a devil for the drink and a known alcoholic, so why is he at this weird camp playing cards with Grover and Mr. Brunner? And they start talking about the gods and demigods again. And Mr. D calls him ‘mortal.’ And Percy’s like yeah, no Cousin Dexter has had a bit too much to drink despite the fact that he can’t smell any alcohol on him, and he’s only been drinking Diet Coke. Percy switches subjects as to why Mr. D isn’t drinking any alcohol. Apparently, his father won’t let him drink alcohol anymore and is forcing him to work at this summer camp. Percy is happy to hear this because at least someone isn’t having Cousin Dexter’s shit anymore.

Then they switch gears back into the conversion about gods existing and he’s sure Grover, or Mr. Brunner, or Mr. D will say sike, but none of them do. They all seriously believe in the gods. Well Percy is stubborn and won’t be convinced this easily.

And then he finds out that Hades stole the master bolt and has his mother, and he’s like uncle Hector? Uncle Hector is a god of the underworld? And he has my mother and stole Zeus’s lightning bolt? No way. Uncle Hector lives in LA and works at a music producing studio. He is not the god of the underworld. He is not Hades, this is insane and Percy does not appreciate being punked. He’ll admit some supernatural stuff is real because a minatur killed his mom, but being a demigod no way.

And they keep telling Percy about the family drama and he’s still in disbelief. All he knows about uncle Zane is that his father is not on good terms with him. There’s no way uncle Zane who his father HATES, who works in the Empire State Building is Zeus. There’s just no way.

And then he finds out about the Big Three and forbidden children thing. And he goes ‘That can’t be true uncle Hector has two kids: cousin Bianca and cousin Nico.’ And he just accidentally spoils to everyone that Hades has not kept his end of the pact about fathering more mortal children.

And then they’re on the road going through quests fighting against Alecto again, Echidna, and Medusa and Percy still can’t believe the gods are real.

It isn’t until he gets to the underworld that he starts believing. There seated on a dark throne surrounded by skeletons is Uncle Hector? Uncle Hector is actually Hades? He’s freaking out he’s never seen his uncle this way before. He’s terrifying and keeps demanding this Helm of Darkness thing in exchange for his mother. Where’s Nico he wants to hang out with his cousin?

And maybe Percy sasses him because what the heck uncle Hector sending furies after your nephew and holding your sister-in-law hostage and accusing your nephew of theft is not cool. And things for the most part will proceed like they do in the book for the most part. I could see Hades when he’s pretending to be a human behaving similarly to Jay Duplass’s portrayal of him in the TV show. Just a comical uncle who is most certainly not lord of the underworld.

(I’ve only seen the TV and I’ve almost finished the first book so far, but I do know Hades has two kids named Bianca and Nico)

Yeah, that's my whole thing when I think of Red Hood and how he uses guns. It just doesn't make sense to me sometimes, I mean he's the kid that went in and out of the foster system before ending up on the streets. If anything, you would think he'd take the opposite approach like Batman because he's seen how the system has failed first hand. I mean, that's one of the reasons that he doesn't work like Bruce, he's seen how this type system where criminals just go in and then get out and do more damage can fail and how it doesn't make the lives of Gothamites safer. Something about him using real bullets doesn't sit right with me. Most likely, I'd say that after he got some (serious) help for his Mental Health, that he would start looking for a way to stop this at the root of the problem. I feel like he would use rubber bullets most of the time. That he would be on the front lines of helping people with their Mental Health (one, because he has his own problems, and two, because he knows that Mental Health is a big factor in these villains). Instead of killing, they should be sent to a clean facility where they can receive around the clock Mental Health care from a therapist one-on-one because Arkham isn't working! And he would be big on making sure that after goons/henches get out of jail that they get jobs, along with homeless people that he sees on a daily basis, most likely from Bruce Wayne. This prevents them from having to work for villains, especially in the universe where his dad worked for the Riddler. Thank you for attending my Ted talk! Happy Pride, Raven

I hate Bruce's "I don't kill because once I start, I wouldn't be able to stop"

Like I simply do not buy it. Murder is not a potato chip Bruce. I think he is full of shit and a messy bitch who lives for the drama. I am certain Bruce has some kind of valid reason for not killing, but I don't believe that this is it.

One of my favorite things about Somewhere Beyond the Sea was how was Sal has grown and become more comfortable since the beginning of the first book. I mean, this kid who rarely spoke up about anything, and NEVER around Linus, is now the one the kids almost always trust to speak up for them.

And more importantly, he calls out the adults for dumb things they're saying or doing SEVERAL times throughout this book. It says so much about Arthur, Linus, and Zoe and the way they raise these kids that he's comfortable doing that. It makes my heart so happy to see him have a place where he's that comfortable in his own skin, and I love the adults in his life for giving him enough respect and room to flourish for that to happen. It shows in all of the kids, but I think Sal especially.

I'm gonna say a few things:

1. Percy having a surfer dude aesthetic fits his character more and y'all only hate it because of the weird obsession you guys have with book boyfriends minus Aaron Warner and Peeta Mellark (my husband) being brunette.

2. We all love Logan Lerman. He was not the best Percy. He was fist fighting the air for last place

3. In the realm of adaptations the movies don't deserve to breathe the same air as the show

4. Leah is possessed by the spirit of Annabeth Chase

5. The show is out doing the book when it comes to the percabeth slow burn. These new scenes add so much to their already perfect relationship. Rick did his big one with this script

6. Stop spoiling the show for new fans and being those annoying fans that are like "well the source material-" no one cares we've all been newbies in a franchise so we can all agree that those fans are annoying as shit. They don't know what they don't know let them have this

7. After this new episode I am officially an Athena hater
