As much as I make fun of Percy for being down bad from day one what I really love is that he truly thinks this is regular friend behaviour. He’s unleashing his inner wattpad mafia boss for Annabeth, has her picture on his mirror, promises he’d burn down Olympus for her, seems offended there’s ‘another’ boyfriend and thinks it is purely platonic. And the best part is Percy is such a loverboy in all meanings of the world that that genuinely is understandable because he is simultaneously going to the sea of monsters for Grover, having Grover’s picture on his mirror, telling Grover he looks beautiful in a wedding dress, embracing Grover like the husband he presumed missing at sea and being so soulmated to his best friend that they dream together.

> “percy was the only non-alt big three kid in the og series” being a take that exists

> percy is canonically a skater

>skateboarding was one of the biggest youth countercultures of the 90s and early 2000s

>certainly this disabled kid who grew up working class in nyc that was bullied and mistreated by authority figures while growing up is a jock. or something.

Does anyone think about how Percy Jackson maybe the only main character who is also the fandom's favorite and most popular character?

[lilislegacy]

i actually think about this all the time. because like… why is percy jackson so different amongst his fandom than other main characters are amongst their fandoms? and i’m fairly confident that the isolating factor is that we read a series entirely from his own internal thoughts and then read another series of him from other people’s thoughts. like, rick invented the perfect recipe for making a character beloved:

- first we grew to love him from his own internal monologue. he’s super funny and silly and sweet. we know exactly who he is as a person, and we got to grow with him

- then he went missing, which made us all miss him immensely. distance makes the heart grow fonder. we all wanted him back so badly

- then we got reunited with him in a super satisfying way. son of neptune really opens with a bang. it’s a book packed full of percy discovering who he is again and being a total badass mf

- then we were able to get to know him from other people’s POVs, and learned that he is super different than we thought. even though we knew he was brave and powerful, we thought he was all dorky and anxious and an adorable loser (because that’s essentially what HE thinks). but then other characters describe him as wild and handsome and super intimidating. he thinks he’s just your average demigod, and everyone else thinks he’s a walking legend. a complex character at its finest.

we got to know him from an internal and external perspective. we got to know him as an anxious unpopular lovable goofball FIRST, and then learned how truly awesome and iconic he is. two wildly different versions of him, but equally lovable. that’s why everyone loves him so much. he’s our percy.

my favorite scene from HoO

[somewhereincairparavel]

To the people saying "Jason wouldn't have jumped into tartarus for Piper, like Percy did for Annabeth" as a way to demean him. Jason, plunged into the sky from the grand canyon to catch Piper in the first few pages of the lost hero without even knowing who she was, and without the knowledge that he could fly. so he basically jumped to his death attempting to catch her. In the first few pages of his journey, he didn't mind dying to save Piper, and ironically, that's also what he did in the last few pages of his journey. Y'all just be making the most out of pocket claims abt jason fr

i like to think if annabeth and percy ended up living around mortals they would tell their friends abt some of the stuff they went through bc they can’t really hide it forever except they make it sound like their family’s part of the greek mafia

a lot of “yeah my dads…influential…in greece”

or “my moms,,pretty powerful in greece,, yeah she’s up there lol..anyway”

like they make it sound like maybe poseidon and athena are two “business CEO’s” who butt heads but everyone thinks their two mafia leaders who hate eachother

annabeth slips up and brings up the 7 months percy was missing and they have to cover it up saying his aunt, on his dads side, sent him away to a boarding school in greece where he wasn’t able to contact anyone here in america

“yeah we don’t really talk to her after..that..”

it doesn’t help that their friends can hear them hiss in greek to each other when they don’t want them to know what their saying

or when their stretching in a certain way that makes their shirt ride up and there are obvious scars hidden underneath

and it honestly all makes sense just going off the vibes of the two of them so no one really questions it because who would and anytime either of their parents appear shifted into their mortal counterparts everyone keeps their eyes downcast
