Exactly what you think. My Riordan-Verse thoughts and opinions, hot or cold, at unreasonable business hours. college student, Minors DNI, He/they, yell if you want but know it fuels me. First Love was Nico Di Angelo... subsequent prosidings not advised. asks open.
Really making me actually read the copy of the Odyssey that's been sitting on my book shelf for years just to explore the literary parallels between Odysseus and Luke... I mean, I'm gonna do it willingly, but I will be a brat about it.
Truly though, Poseidon went soft after the Odyssey. Luke Castellan had the audacity to piss off Poseidon's only living Demigod son and then LIVED ON A BOAT AND POSEIDONS JUST LIKE "hahaha yeah cool bro." When the Odyssey is actually just a thing that happened historically in cannon. Odysseus is in Elysium with Penelope FUMMING when Luke walks in and tells him his story "THAT SON OF A BITCH LET ME DRIFT AT SEA FOR 11 YEARS AND HE NEVER EVEN ROCKED YOUR BOAT A LITTLE???" (Non of yall should be surprised I got into Epic)

Would love to see Haley Riordan's face when he realises that the short story he wrote when he was 16 has it's own corner of the fandom that absolutely obsesses over it
tips on kill gods?
im about to murder (it’s not a Greek one tho)
[JACK, I SWEAR IF THAT’S YOU- LEAVE FREY ALONE!]
Luke: Unfortunately, by their definition, gods cannot be killed. But you can make them wish they could be. You can torment them for eternity, make their immortality a curse rather than a blessing. You be can give them fates even worse than death. Twist by their power, use it against them. Reduce them to strokes of blood in history’s pavement, torture them for your own entertainment. Just like they did to you. Only then justice will be served.
Silena: Unlike Luke, I believe that gods can be killed. You just have to take their power away from them. Poseidon is nothing if the ocean dries out, because Poseidon is the ocean. Sink yourself in worthless labor, and you’ve already killed a part of Dionysus. Let hate slide into your heart, and you’ve already killed a part of Aphrodite.
Ethan: Gods don’t need to be killed. They need to live long enough to see how their paper empires fall under their own weight, and let themselves be crushed under the reality of their own worthlessness and vanity. You don’t need to kill a god, you need to let him do it himself. That’s how you balance things out.
Alabaster: Gunpoint. The ammunition must be properly enchanted beforehand. Aim for the head, let them be bleed on the sidewalk.
Glad I put your feeling into words, I enjoyed reading your words, and they made me think of more words to add!
So if Percy and Luke are Blue and Red, Percy and Annabeth are Green and Red; True opposite complimentary.
Red and Green, when mixed neutralize each other, Percy’s green grounds Annabeth’s lofty ideals, and Annabeth’s red opposes Percy’s raw power. Seeing how Annabeth was treated by the God's and how she handled it was the humbling a young and angery(angrier)Percy needed not to raise olympus to hell on his own. Likewise, Percy was the stability Annabeth needed, especially after Luke left. I'm not anti-Percebeth for the record, because Dommy mommy topping a man who could easily win in a one on one fight is inherently appealing to my bisexual fancy, but yeah I enjoy the headcannon of them breaking up to work through their trauma before it gets to toxic
Luke Castellan wants to see Percy Jackson go ape shit and this is a hill I will die on! If Percy’s being *Chaotic energy tm*, Luke will match or exceed that energy every time. They do have the same ideals. They see the world in a lot of the same ways, but act on these ideals in very different ways.
The best way I can explain it is:
She thinks she's making him better, and He thinks he's making him worse, but in reality it's the opposite, and they all need FUCKING THEREPY!
Ugh I love my traumatized babies.
You know how people have red and blue ships? What would luke and percy be? Percy and Nico are like ocean and earth, shadows and ocean. Black and Blue ships. But what would luke and percy be?
Honestly, I don't see them in a duality sense? They give me a "kindred free spirits" that can go anywhere, be it travelling on land or sea, they'd never get lost coz they'll always know exactly where they are (geographically).
Oh, I'm jumping in on this one. They're the Prince and the Theif.
The Captain of a Sea Fairing vessel and the Pirate captain.
The Dream and the Consequence
They're Blue like a crystal clear lake and Orange like a setting sun.
The monster and the hero, but neither is sure who is who.
Opposites in theory, but complement each other inherently by the fates design, two sides of the same coin in a universal currency. One soul in two bodies, separate because the Gods fear them reuniting once again... but like that's just my take.

Sitting on so many drafts and finished sections, I refuse to do anything with them lmao.
Do y’all ever reread an old unpublished fanfic you wrote and then get invested on the storyline but get sad because you never wrote the next part of it, just me?
It's not cringe anymore (it SHOULDN'T be cringe anymore), just do it. You're doing something you enjoy, who cares what anybody else says! So spread the words my fellow internet brethren.
Spread the Word :)
