Rick Riordan after reading the script for the PJO movies
EVERYONE, SAY IT WITH ME…

I nodded, looking at Rachel with respect. “You hit the Lord of the Titans in the eye with a blue plastic hairbrush.”
no one talks about how rick riordan literally scammed disney
dead ass pjo was that seemingly “normal” kids fantasy series with a seemingly white straight kid saving the world and it’s a fucking success. percy jackson? iconic! ppl fucking love percy and his character and then hoo comes out? everyone is pumped bc everyone is in love with that world. the first book? two main bad ass poc characters. the second book? two more bad ass poc characters! the fourth book and there’s literally a gay character and it’s not like disney could say no. hoo ends and then there’s magnus chase and ppl are fucking pumped bc that’s annabeth chase’s cousin and in the first book there’s a muslim girl and by the second book there’s a transgender and genderfluid character. trials of apollo? a main gay couple in a happy relationship and a fucking bi character. could disney say no? no. literal 10 year olds are reading books with heaps of representation all published by disney. rick riordan played the game. you step in thinking ur just gonna get white cishets and you walk out surrounded by different cultures and rainbows.
tldr; rick started out with the basic pasty white and straight series which got hella successful and used his success to pusblish more books and allow only one (1) cishet and only one (1) white
i doubt he planned it but deadass it would be so funny if that’s what happened
I saw him speak on /writing in the UK right before (or early in on when) his series hit it big. Planned. Definitely planned.
Thousand percent planned. Also Percy? Has a learning disability. RR’s son inspired him to write bc he is ADHD and dyslexic. This was all planned. He is all about inclusivity and representation.
He just recently turned down an invitation to be recognized by the Texas state legislature because of of their new bathroom bill.
He also makes his books incredibly funny, which is rather rare for YA and makes them more accessible to kids who don’t really like to read. In addition to having loads of POV character who have trouble reading themselves.
For those who’ve been living under a YA rock, this is Rick Riordan:
(this was the gay character in the second series)
(and the trans character in a later series)
Let’s not forget that he has an interest in the mythologies of other countries, but instead of writing them himself promotes other writers through his “Rick Riordan Presents” publishing imprint to do so!

Riordan is what JK Rowling wanted to be
The man is a legend agshjdjd
Carter: Isn't it past your bedtime?
Sadie: Isn't it time you die?
Wouldn’t it be so funny if the whole “don’t eat food in/from the underworld” extended to Tartarus? And the moment Percy and Annabeth ate that stew Damasen gave them, they banished themselves to eternal life there? Wouldn’t that be soooo funny?
a BABY
The Ares cabin harbouring a grudge against Percy at the end of TLT is hilarious to me, because that means 1 of 2 things happened:
1) They overheard from Percy/Chiron/Annabeth and all collectively decided he was a little bitch
2) Ares was a whiny bitch and appeared in their dreams demanding that they hold a grudge on Percy for winning in combat with him (at the beach mind you, so it’s even more petty)
I don’t even want to know if there’s a canon way they know, both of these are petty as fuck
due to personal reasons i will be stealing zeus’ bolt
Poseidon: The reason why I’m so hard on you is… Well you remind me of myself. A dumb, useless idiot the whole family could do without.
Percy: …. What’s your point, dad?
Poseidon: well the point is you don’t wanna be like me. I’ve never been much of a husband or a father.
Poseidon: Infact, have I ever told you how I lost my wife?
Percy: Tuberculosis dad, I was there at the funeral
Poseidon: no no no… That’s what we wanted you to think. We buried an empty casket that day. The truth is…
Poseidon: … This is hard for me to say… The truth is…
Poseidon: … I never banished any lobsters to the sea
Percy: …
Percy, whispering: I know that dad
Poseidon: … They banished me to the land!
Percy:

Percy: WHAT ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT?!?!?
Percy walks into Dunkin Donuts. He looks the cashier dead in the eyes and says. "Blue coffee." The cashier responds "Don't you mean black coffee? Percy stares in the very being of the cashier, and says "You heard me." The cashier cries.

Summary: A classic with a twist: Percy Jackson was just 12 years old, he really shouldn’t have been trusted with a quest… Much less blamed for something he didn’t do. When a turn of events happened, he threw his life down a hole to save his friends. Quite literally. Fates separated, follow Percy and Annabeth as they live in a world that should never have happened. Because no man, nor mortal, should be forced to fight the gods’ wars in Tartarus.
