I keep thinking every time I see a "they knew Percy was going to die at 16" post that actually, they didn't, and it's worse than that. Even if Percy accepts the prophecy as his before he knows exactly what it says, he knows it happens after he turns sixteen--and that's the key.
No one knew Percy was going to die at sixteen because no one knew if he'd make it to sixteen. What they knew was that if he made it to 16, he would die. But honestly (the way they were reading the prophecy) making it to sixteen was the best case scenario for Percy (other than the whole prophecy coming true part). The child of the prophecy is after all supposed to be making it to sixteen "against all odds," so it's unlikely he's actually going to make it at all.
It's not Annabeth befriended a boy she knew would die at sixteen. It's Annabeth befriended a boy who would probably die before he was sixteen. It's not Poseidon came to Percy's birthday because he'd die when he turned sixteen. It's Poseidon came to Percy's birthday because one way or another he wasn't going to make it another year, and he was fucking lucky to have made it so far.
I just feel like everyone says "Percy was going to die at 16 and everyone knew" but actually as soon as they saw him at twelve they knew he wasn't going to make it past 16 but probably that they'd lose him before that. Like I feel like Chiron was probably worried about Percy being a summer-only camper because of the way his power would attract monsters throughout the year, but also feel almost like it was a good idea because it gave him so many more opportunities to die before the prophecy could come true. Maybe that would be kinder, more humane. Like, unlike Harry Potter where the child of the prophecy is raised "like a pig for slaughter," Percy is raised with the expectation that he'll die before he's old enough for the prophecy to apply. They're hoping he's not the pig and they won't have to slaughter him. Idk

it has always been so cute to me that even tho a war has just happened half of camp is destroyed or dead that the campers still thought it would be fun to bully percabeth
like did we ever learn why all of camp was just there when annabeth and percy kissed ??
like did annabeth recrute ppl to help ??
like maybe annabeth got malcom to help with the cupcake and he started the wildfire that was “annabeth and percy are sitting really close ALONE together for his birthday” so everyone went to eavesdrop or smth
or actually tyson definitely did that by accident now that i’m thinking abt it like he just told ppl who asked and everyone was like “thanks for letting me know >:)”
i always kinda thought maybe clarisse knew it was percy’s birthday and was planning on being a menace but when they pulled up annabeth was already there then the kiss happened and everyone was like “holy SHITTTTT”
like maybe the plan was to dunk percy in the water but they couldn’t find annabeth so they showed up late just to witness the kiss some kids probably cried a little but clarisse was like “sick now i can dunk BOTH of them” so that’s what they did
to me i always loved that clarisse was the one to be the head of that bc throwing them into the water to celebrate wasn’t for her - personally i don’t think clarisse could give two real shits abt percabeth actually dating or not (not that she doesn’t think they should- it’s just not her buisness) but yk who did ?? selina
there were probably long talks where all selina talked abt was the percabeth tea
“i have insanely hot gossip right now. >:)”
“ooo really?? >:)”
“yeah and it involves your two favorite people >:3”
“oh…really…… :|”
i like to think that was for her and i love that

Things I wished was brought up/talked abt more in the books and fandom
Recognizing the fact that Percy wasn't the only one who was abused in his home as a child
Chiron gaslighting both Percy and Jason
Thalia's childhood and overall importance to the narrative
Bianca was a 12 yr old girl who made mistakes and shouldn't be hated for her decisions
Hylla -Twice Kill- Ramirez Arellano
Phoebe the Hunter
EVERY Big Three Kid getting the chance to go all out on a person or a monster!!! Not just the boys, I mean Thalia and Hazel too!!
Annabeth's rocky relationship with her mother and how they should have a conversation abt it
Hazel should've been allowed to explore her powers over precious metals instead of letting her use the Mist e.g. controlling weapons (yes ik the rating was for kids but come on there's a bunch of ways you could've done this)
The potential of Octavian, Reyna and Jason mirroring Luke, Annabeth and Thalia
Camp Jupiter being fleshed out more
Percy and Jason shouldn't have fought over leadership
Jason literally being replaced in his own camp and getting mocked for no longer being Roman even tho he was replaced by a Greek
Reyna and Jason's friendship
Dakota
The potential of Thalia and Nico being friends
Percy's mistreatment throughout the first 5 books from CHB
Thalia should've been in the room during the final fight in tlo
Rachel Elizabeth Dare is a wonderful character and doesn't deserve the hate just bc she threatened Percabeth
The only couple that should've been on the Argo II was Percabeth
I'll add more I just need to recharge my brain

everlark falls in love in every universe.
a universe where katniss is a history teacher and peeta is an art teacher? they get assigned as the teachers in charge of the annual school play. they spend so much time together discussing script changes, approving customes, and designing the scenery, they start seeing each other in a different light.
katniss is a commoner and peeta is the prince? they meet after one of peeta’s escapades leads him into katniss’ parents shop, hoping no one recognizes him. katniss, unfortunately, recognizes him instantly. however, her silence is secured with a deal: if he can use her store as a refuge when he is mentally exhausted from his royal duties, he must also sneak her into the castle occasionally
katniss is a soldier and peeta is a nurse? after katniss suffers a catastrophic leg injury, she's forced to spend a lot of time in the makeshift, under-eqquipped mobile army hospital. katniss’ closed off and grumpy demeanor is eventually softened by peeta’s rare-to-encounter-in-these-environments kindness and gentle personality
katniss is a professional tennis player and peeta a tennis fan? they meet at a sports bar after one of her matches, where peeta pretends not to know who she is, despite feeling starstruck, so they can have a normal conversation. she sees right through him, and finds his stuttering and inability to meet her gaze so endearing that the night ends with her inviting him to spend the night at her place
peeta is a baker at a little coffee shop where katniss stops by every friday? after many free pastries, coffee cups adorned with heart doodles, and memorizing the times she visits, peeta finally asks katniss out on a date, who was expecting for him to make a move since the very first day
there’s not a single universe where peeta doesn't fall in love with katniss since the first moments, and katniss isn't in denial trying to hide her obvious deep feelings for him

Rich guy in an asian drama: I have no interest in love or romance and I think dating is a waste of time.
Plucky ordinary girl: You suck, your family and friends suck, you make me miserable and I’m in love with another guy.

Love how tumblr has its own folk stories. Yeah the God of Arepo we’ve all heard the story and we all still cry about it. Yeah that one about the woman locked up for centuries finally getting free. That one about the witch who would marry anyone who could get her house key from her cat and it’s revealed she IS the cat after the narrator befriends the cat.

Am I the only one who thinks about how The Lightning Thief would have gone if instead of Grover, Percy picked Luke to go with him and Annabeth on the quest? Luke, who was sick of the idea of doing quests that had already been done was just picked to go on a unique quest by this demigod who he was planning to manipulate, and the quest was unique because he helped to make it so. And while he'll likely be plotting to hide the fact that he's a lightning thief, reworking things to take heat off himself, one of his quest mates would be Annabeth, the half blood he personally saved and brought to camp, whom he would have to work like hell to hide his deeds from.
listen I'm loving the comedic potential of this because in my heart of hearts, I feel like Luke's too enamored with the idea of razing Olympus for him to doubt what he's doing, but balancing that razors edge where he's actively trying to sabotage the quest and kill Percy while not tipping off Annabeth, and also trying to plant seeds of doubt and discord both between Percy and Annabeth and also about the gods while trying not to be too obvious about it because maybe, just maybe he can convince Annabeth to side with him.
except as usual Luke's nefarious plans are constantly being foiled by 2 tweens and its embarrassing cause they're not even trying. Percy's not wearing the shoes and keeps making up polite reasons on why he can't without seeming like he's rejecting Luke's gift (cause that would be rude) and Annabeth's like "well I'm gonna wear them then" and Luke's panics like "NO" but he also can't wear them so then they just stay in the bag untouched. then Luke keeps directing them into the paths of monsters in the hopes Percy's gonna get taken out but holy hell this kid just won't die. Like literally just escapes mortal peril by the skin of his teeth and doesn't even realize it. It's like an old silent film where the entire front of the house falls off and the guy survives because he just happened to be standing right where the open window is.
Then Luke's also trying to stir up some anger at the gods, testing the waters with Annabeth, but she's so in the height in the idealization of her mom it's getting no where. Luke's trying to be subtle like "hey... don't you think it's kinda of fucked up that the gods are..... uh... blaming? percy for this? and that he has to do this quest to set things right" but annabeth's like "what do you mean by that? 🤨 this is what heroes do this is how we prove ourselves" and unfortunately Percy is the only one vibing with the "hey don't you hate your dad" comments that's Luke's throwing down and that makes him fond of Percy against his better judgement but he's still gotta kill him so you know, bummer
anyway, in this quest AU Percy perceives Luke as the Responsible Adult cause he's 19 (lmao) and thus feels a little less pressure to be responsible for things himself and so when they get to the Underworld, Luke's like smirking, grinning, cause a. he's in in the Underworld and how many heroes have achieved that? b. the shoes in Percy's bag are about to drag that kid to the depths of hell or c. the lightning bolts about to appear in the bag and Luke will throw Percy under the bus to Hades (he's been practicing his betrayal speech) except wait "Percy... where's your backpack??" and Percy's like "oh I forgot it at the hotel 👉👈" and Luke loses it and picks him up to throw him into tartarus himself (he is unsuccessful)

oh and I sincerely believe that Poseidon telling Percy "You're my favorite child" was absolutely a manipulation tactic/power play and it worked

🐑 send me a fake set of fic tags, and I’ll try to come up with a summary for it!
highschool au, journalist!katniss, wrestler!peeta, academic rivals, suggestive content (😉), locker rooms, all nighters at the library, school sportsfest
Love it!
Summary: when they’d divided up assignments for the school paper, Katniss had requested covering the wrestling matches specifically. There’s nothing she’d love to see more than that stupid grin whipped off her fellow Valedictorian candidate, Peeta Mellark’s face as he’s pinned to the mat.
At least that’s how it started,
But lately she’s begun daydreaming of being the one doing the pinning, and to her dismay, the thought is a much more satisfying one.

The ship names for the love triangle in THG are sooooo appropriate because you have:
G@leniss which is like, this ship is just about Gale. Katniss's desires, personality, values, characterization, etc. have to be cut out and/or minimized to give Gale his fantasy.
Everth0rne because this ship is forever and ever a thorn for everyone involved.
Then there's Everlark, which is poetic and beautiful, invoking a mythical bird of fate.
And Peeniss. Because Peeta is the only dick Katniss wants.
