I can’t get over the fact that post cannon Izutsumi keeps bringing Laios dead monsters as gifts in exchange for money. Peak stray cat behaviour. I hope she still goes to Chilchuck for snuggles and only eats veggies when Senshi cooks it. I hope Marcille keeps an exclusive brush for when the little kitty comes over for unfair trades.

Thinking about Harry and all the animal parallels that follow him through the narrative. It's true that these animal parallels reflect the way that the brutality of individualist moralism strips him of humanity as someone who has fallen through the safety nets, and his agonised shout of 'I don't want to be this kind of animal anymore' can be interpreted as a direct admission of the RCM's dehumanisation of him as a disabled addict who is no longer as 'useful' as he once was. Gottlieb even directly tells him '[he] lost [his] human visage a while back.' Jean calls him 'the most dangerous animal of them all'. The rabid dog that needs to be put down, the black dog (also a common metaphor for chronic mental illness!) that Mollins shoots as it licks its wounds; the scared, hurt, frightened animal lashing out, chewing off it's own leg to escape the trap that it's caught in. The wild dog is all they can see.
But then there is a flipside to these parallels too; a kindness, a gentleness, almost a freedom in Harry’s animal parallels. He's strong like a 'goddamn ox,' like a bear ('I had to kill the bear to become the bear'). He's a harrier hawk, a name given to ensure his safety, raised up to the level of the aerostatics looking down over Revachol, 'soar[ing] on the wings of [his] spirit hawk.' He's a leopard ('its impossible to know where you end and the leopard begins'), discovering or rediscovering a love of softness and sensuality that he'd not known before via the leopard print leotard that 'speaks to the animal inside [him]' and touches on his relationship with his gender ('Yes, this is the type of animal I want to be.').
He's a 'seagull', a bird that will do 'whatever it takes to survive,' a 'bird of paradise' that tells a story of 'endurance- and adaptation' ('You! You and the seagull are just alike!'). He survives, despite everything, despite the grimness of the world around him. He endures. Even the sea monster comparison is oddly kind ('You've become a sea monster -- giant, hidden and... strangely tender at heart'). Even as a monster, he's still gentle; he still has so much love for this world that has wrung every last bit out of him. As if his tenderness is such an inherent part of him that no matter what monstrous face he wears, no matter what creature is there in his shadow, he cannot help but have some trace of it at his core. His tender soul 'quivering like jello.' The pain he feels is raw and animal but so is the love he feels. So is the hope and the fear and the wonder.

Say what you will about the Disney Percy Jackson series, but if there is one thing that I really like about it, it is the fleshing out of monsters and darker characters so far. Everyone's personality is so much greyer, but staying true to their core that makes it such an interesting adaptation. Yes I am sad that some scenes are changes, different or not included, but I can also appreciate the new ones that we see. You can really get into Percy's head in a way that sometimes I forget as I reread the books. He is well established in my head as older and that much more experienced, a character that i grew up and aged with, but I see now in the Disney series, just how really young he is. How much he is still learning, still growing as himself and how much his interactions are shaping him as a person. I love book!Percy, but TV!Percy is bringing something a bit different to the table that is not bad, just different.

This man loves dogs Like lookit that smile at seeing her being okay
Like, CX404 will never be Roosevelt, and it's clear Cooper is trying to keep that distance by being cold and using CX like he would any other person, but there's no saying no to the love of a Dog
Yeah he stabbed her at the start but idk bout you I've killed many raider's dogs and Blood Eagle's dogs, it's sucks so much cause they're just puppies protecting their owners and they don't know any better.
So I don't fault him there
