***tfatws ep 6
It made me so happy that they changed it from falcon to captain America, but did it bug anyone else that they didn’t change winter soldier?
Like I thought we established that Bucky and the winter soldier were two different people.
I think it would’ve been beautiful if it said
Captain America and The White Wolf

Why the Greeks would have won during the Roman Invasion at Camp Half-Blood
From time to time I think about the worst case scenario in which the Greeks and Romans actually fight on Half-Blood Hill.
Throughout the series, the way they describe the legion is as an unstoppable force that would make the Greek demigods falter and be crushed in that they were out matched in every sense - sheer numbers, skills, and tactics, but I actually think that the Greeks would win, hear me out.
1. The Greeks live in a camp with a forest that comes stocked with monsters to fight and train against. They live in near constant danger.
2. Because all the Greeks are 1st generation demigods they are likely more in touch with their godly parentage. (There’s not a whole lot of evidence of this, but if Octavian is the Augur for the romans and he’s a distant descendent I’m inclined to believe that not many of them have much control over their parents domain/sphere of influence)
3. The Greeks - 30-40 strong defended Olympus: against hordes of monsters, titans, and turned gods and goddesses - ALONE. And since then the survivors have been training along side the newer campers, teaching them how to stay alive.
4. When Percy first arrived at Camp Jupiter and played in the legion’s war games, none of the Roman defenders knew how to defend or stop Percy’s fighting style - which is VERY much Greek. (Yes I know he had the help of a miniature hurricane, but mainly kept projectiles away from him. The romans utilize numbers while the Greeks utilize surroundings.
5. Half-Blood Hill is where the Greeks are strongest. Literally a home field advantage. Almost every Greek demigod reaches Thalia’s Tree against the odds of a pursuing monster.
6. The Greeks have always been more attuned to other creatures in their world. They have more friends - both beast and human. Percy can call upon the Cyclopes in Poseidon’s Forge (because let’s be honest- you hurt Percy’s home Tyson will kill you dead), Grover can rally all the nature spirits in a 5 mile radius as a Lord of the Wild, Chiron could theoretically ask for the aid of the Party Ponies - which would really terrify the Romans as centaurs are seen as evil beings to them (also noted by Percy that evil centaurs felt wrong to him), worse comes to worse, Thalia and the Hunters of Artemis would likely lend a hand too, despite their grudge with the campers -which was eased during the battle of manhattan to a friendly rivalry (also, the hunters were very much a Greek tribe of warrior women) because CHB is their second home — basically what I’m saying is that the Greeks could easily rally enough supporters to triple or quadruple their numbers, enough to match those of the Roman camp
7. But Matt… what about the roman’s Eagles, their elephant, and the Amazons? Listen. The eagles are very good at scouting and recovering but they make easy targets for the Apollo cabin to shoot out of the sky. The Amazon’s have no stake in the squabble- it’s unlikely that they would come to the aid of a conquering force: the amazons have always been known as defenders - their own homelands, Coming to aid Troy - they always get something out of it. And I’m sorry but Hannibal would barely make it up Half-Blood Hill before Peleus ripped him apart.
8. This is definitely not the first time the Greeks have been ambushed at CHB. The will have tons of defenses laying in wait. Many, even they forgot we’re there. After Thalia’s Tree was posioned Monsters could break through the magical barrier protecting camp - showing how quickly the Greeks could respond to an attack, and how deadly they could be be even in pajamas and half armored up. Not to mention how rapidly they were able to establish a countermeasure for the Battle of the Labyrinth at Zeus’ Fist.
9. The way CHB is set up, gives each cabin a voice, a way to promote their strengths in times of need - the Athena and Ares cabin would easily dominate the warfront and strategy talks while the other campers race around thickening the brush in the forest, added more gadgets and automaton defenses, prepping weapons, laying distractions, setting up hunters perches in strategic places, fortifying camp and adding bunkers and hideouts to sneak around (we all know the Greeks are cunning- it how they survive when numbers are low - think Trojan War, Battle of Manhattan, All of Percabeths time in Tartarus is just showcasing the inherent trait they all share.)
10. The Roman legion is literally without proper leadership. Both acting Praetors are off field - yes Reyna is returning, but even she would likely not support the attack on CHB after learning everything she has and traveling with the the Statue of Athena and fighting alongside Greeks.
11. And let me say- I know we had more time with the Greeks but even the powers that some of the halfbloods at camp Jupiter have seen relatively unimpressive: the most spectacular being Jason who can control the winds - but the Greeks can bless and curse weaponry (Ares/Athena), necromancy and mist manipulation (via Hecate cabin), and the ability to put others to sleep and plague their dreams (Hypnos) to name a few. The connection to the gods was always stronger in Greece than in Rome.
12. The Greeks fight with no rules. Everything is about survival. And they (as a whole) always survive. The romans fight was a kind of respect, for a lack of a better word.
13. You better believe there would be some monstrous tag teams from the Hephaestus-Hermès co-op that would do some SERIOUS damage… and no one wants to be on the receiving end of a Hephaestus machine or a Hermès prank.
14. Culturally speaking, if the romans could even destroy the Greeks it would entirely decimate their own culture. Their gods only exist because they were adopted from their Greek forms - some were literally just pull straight over - ie Apollo (didn’t even get a name change smh). The Greeks could theoretically decimate the Roman camp and remain unaffected by the blow back as their pantheon would remain intact. (But that’s hypothetical)

One of the most Australian things in existence, is how we took the song and lyric ‘Am I ever gonna see your face again’ and we respond with ‘No way, get fucked, fuck off,’ and no one knows how that actually started.

Something that really bothers me is how TV shows deal with trauma.
Their family member was murdered, not on a holiday. They were tortured, not massaged. People who have been assaulted don’t just move on.
I feel like it could bring so much more awareness if they dealt with it the right way.
I want to see them flinch everytime they get touched, and react badly to certain words, and pick their fingers till they bleed. I want to see them excessively folding laundry until they break down, drinking until their friend pulls the bottle away, I want to see them tear into the person they love because they can’t just get over it.
Before an episode, I want the number of helplines, and messages that this is not okay, but you will be.
I want to see this stuff because it makes characters more relatable and the storyline better, but also because how much it could help real life people with PTSD, or even just struggling to come to terms with things.
And it can’t just be one episode either. Trauma isn’t only important when it’s relevant to the storyline.
People don’t just come out the other side with a smile and a rainbow. They’re still drenched from the storm.

Therapist: now, I understand you have your differences, so we’re going to try a different tactic. Pretend you’re in your siblings shoes, say how they feel.
Luther, falsetto: Hi, I’m Vanya, I tried to murder my sister, and when my brother stopped me from hurting anyone else I blew up the moon-
Five: Oh yes of course the moon
Luther: - and killed everyone in the process because daddy didn’t love me.
Diego: low blow
Allison: she’s your sister!
Five: and Luther’s in love with you so obviously that ‘sibling’ stuff doesn’t matter
Klaus, falsetto: hi, I’m monkey man, and I’m the reason everyone died because I forced my sister to relive her trauma after she came to me for help
Diego: hi, I’m Luther, and I spent four years on the moon so I think it gives me the right to treat everyone else and their trauma like shit
Therapist: now wait a minute
Ben: hi, I’m Klaus and i have no impulse control and makes Ben’s ghostly life miserable and doesn’t care about his feelings.
Klaus hisses, then: you love me.
Therapist: Klaus, who are you talking to?
Klaus: hi, I’m Space Boy, and I think that because I was named number 1, I am the first and best at everything and can do no wrong, and even tries to make excuses for the father who abused us
Luther: I feel attacked
Five: hi, I’m everyone, and I don’t care the five had to literally see our dead bodies and we just make him face all our problems and if it doesn’t work out, it’s also his fault
Allison: hi, I’m Diego, and I push around everyone pretending to be a bad boy when in reality I’m the softest most precious dude ever so I really need to stop being mean to the people who love me
Vanya: hi, I’m -
Luther: hi, I’m
Vanya: Jesus, shut up! Hi, I’m Vanya, and I grew up wishing for a family when in reality I was 1 of 10, but I was so unloved that I don’t even know how to love myself!
Everyone: ...
Luther: you did it wrong.
The other six: shut up Luther!
Therapist, shaken: I think we have a lot to unpack here, but we won’t do this exercise again.
Allison: thank the lord

You know what I want?
I want Percy to almost die because a monster was begging for it’s life and he hesitated, because he’s been there, he knows.
I want him to feel the weight of the curses every time he swings riptide at a monster.
I want Annabeths hand to constantly stray towards Percy just to make sure he doesn’t disappear again.
I want Leo to flinch and his chest to tighten every time a sudden, bright explosion is near him, the feeling of death scarred into his mind.
I want them to face what they’ve been through, to break down realising, how are they alive? How did they make it through? I want the worst of them, and the worst of what they’ve been through, to hit them like tsunami that even Percy could barely survive.
I want them to break.

We’re the generation of stolen dreams
We look to the future and see barely paying jobs, no health care, wwIII, global warming.
We look to the future and see nothing but a broken world.
Fame means nothing if there’s no one to love you
Degrees mean nothing if there’s no one to teach
Teenagers have to fight for their lives because the adults refused to
And our stolen dreams ignite our rage
We dare to dream for a steady job
We dare to dream of even being happy
With a lifetime of fixing to do and no one willing to help
Our skin is turning bloody and our fingertips raw
Hope is just one of the things that was taken
We gave up a long time ago
I hear the crying, I see the brutality
twelve year olds are laughing in the face of death
We’re facing a hopeless future
How do we stop this?
You did this to us
You stole our lives
We are the generation of stolen dreams

One thing that never really stuck with me was that Reginald made Vanya think she was ‘ordinary’ because she couldn’t control her own powers and they were too much for her to handle.
I think that’s a load of bullshit because all he wants is power, and she can control her abilities in the right circumstances, e.g. not abusive circumstances.
I think he made her do that because he was afraid of her. Not her abilities, but her. Because she hurt him when he pushed her and she was in a bad mood. Reginald knew he treated them like shit and they’d learn to hate him like they’ve never hated anything before. But Vanya? Who, even though all their traumas are just as relevent as each other’s, he treated the worst? Her ‘lashing out’ would kill him. He was afraid of Vanya, and the result of his abuse.

Basically I’m gay for Vanya
I don’t really understand how people don’t like Vanya like bruh. Her abilities are incredible, she’s gay as fuck, and she’s awesome in general.
Her personality isn’t ‘bland’ it’s reserved after years of abuse
She caused the apocalypse twice - uh, actually, the second time didn’t technically happen and wasn’t her fault because she was tortured, and the first one? I honestly just see that as a result of a panic attack. Like she lost herself, and when blank and numb, and then stupid people (Luther) that actually caused that panic attack, attacked her at her most vulnerable.
Obviously she doesn’t have to be your fav character but I don’t understand how people blame her and hate her
Vanya man
