i see you jonathan steinberg with your kleos vs nostos i see you percy starting out trying to gain kleos (glory--trying to gain his father's attention) when what he really wants is nostos (homecoming--finding his mom)

#pjo #percy jackson #percy jackon and the olympians #all he wants to do is to go home ok #i also think it's important that it's *luke* who introduces percy to the concept of kleos #re steinberg and having the central conflict in a story often revolving around kleos (luke) vs percy (homecoming)#and luke dying for glory vs percy being named after/trying to live a happy life #no hero ever gets to be happy if they value l #kleos over nostos or whatevee #anyways thats just a theory a *gunshots*
