Evie (eh-vee) 23 They/Them Anything and everything

[heart-strong]

I’m 23 and just read the books a few years ago when the show was announced and my sister wanted me to and boy did I need them as a kid. They have learning disabilities because there brains are wired differently. Wired to read greek.

I didn’t read much as a kid because of my learning disability. The way that 13 year old boy yells “my brain is broken” is how I thought when I was 13 and still sometimes now. I’m just so glad I have it now. I have a feeling this shows going to be a comfort show.

“If I have to stick with someone… I-“

AND YOU WILL. YOU WILL STICK WITH HER. THROUGH MULTIPLE QUESTS, A WAR, LITERAL TARTARUS, AND THEN ANOTHER FUCKING WAR

I hope so hard that when Percy sees Annabeth next season they have a moment where they address the immense new height difference cuz Leah has been shorter but now WALKER HAS GROWN LIKE CRAZYYYYY and that’s not a detail either Percy or Annabeth would let go without arguing discussing it

[mydairpercabeth]

they shook the book and percabeth fell out

[babeewiththepowerr]

There you go racists. Book accurate Annabeth to cure your souls 🤌🤌🤌

Percy heard the Oracle say that he's going to be betrayed by a friend, and he goes "Fuck you, my best friend Grover would NEVER do that he's my OG."

Some of the LMM hate is unwarranted and when he was cast I was just like “okay fine” and then he started humming and singing under his breath.

Tv!Percy praying to Sally instead of the gods has the same energy as musical!Percy singing an entire verse about how awesome his mom was while the other campers are asking him about his godly parent.

They both understood the assignment.

The way they’re holding back the first “seaweed brain” like it’s a bass drop bc they know it is going to irreparably alter all of our brains forever

[ziorite]

not gonna lie the show thus far has felt like rick riordan just subtly rewriting his book the way he would do it now to better develop characters and relationships and such and personally i’m here for it because it means we get shit like the consensus song and medusa being a sympathetic villain because girl she was a victim !!

[oh-look-car-horns]

You can tell Percy Jackson was written for a kid with ADHD because every important item in the series gets teleported back to its owner when it gets lost.

For some reason I’m still seeing people being racist about the Disney+ PJO show, so if you’re out there hating on Leah for being a black Annabeth, here’s what you need to realize:

A big part of Annabeth’s character is how she felt she was never taken seriously because of the way she looked. In the books, it was specifically because she was blonde, and blondes were seen as dumb.

Well, that stereotype is much less common today, and most blondes aren’t really looked down upon. But you know who is? People of color. Especially young black girls. Leah’s Annabeth will still have to deal with prejudice because of how she looks.

Annabeth’s key trait wasn’t her hair color, it was how she proved to be the best despite how others judged her. It just so happens that her skin color is now what causes her to be judged.

I think Leah is perfect to play Annabeth in today’s world. Just how young blonde girls used to be empowered by book Annabeth, I know Leah’s Annabeth will teach young black girls that they can be everything she is.

Me when talking about the books to new Percy Jackson fans who have only watched the show:

[pjoseries]

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 .

Percy age 12: And if the mission required someone to push me down a flight of stairs for it to succeed… you’d want someone who won’t hesitate when they do it

Percy age 17:
