annabeth: this seems impertinent

percy: i am impertinent

keeping the "they'll think we're impertinent" / "i am impertinent" lines from the book???? iconic. incredible. reminded me i have never once known what impertinent means

Percy putting Medusa's head in a box to mail to Olympus:

I love your friend, random person I found on twitter.

Poseidon trying not to lose his shit in front of the other gods after Percy FedEx-ed delivered Medusa’s head to Olympus

Annoyed with another date gone wrong and disappointing, frustrated with the too long sexual draught, you decide to reach for the method of the last resort.

Summoning.

Not some mediocre demon or incubus. No, you were fucking done with half-satisfaction and lowering your standards.

You were going to summon one of the Princes Of Hell. A Fallen Angel. One who has been called the Deity of Lust, Prince of seduction, Sin Incarnate.

Nobody ever dared to do it. At least nobody survived to boast about doing it.

But you were needy and horny and you were fucking determined to get the proper, mind-blowing orgasms that you deserved.

When he finally appeared - truly looking like desire molded into male flesh - he didn't seem happy. Quite the contrary, he was damn furious.

You, on the other hand, were bold enough to not drop and bow, but instead voice your demand.

"Stop cursing and start touching me. I want to finally be fucked properly, before I curse all men with impotency, because I swear it wouldn't even make a fucking difference!"

Thanks to PJOTV for temporarily convincing me that Percy was not going to send Medusa's head to Olympus- genuinely one of the scenes I was most looking forward to in the show- and then delivering it PERFECTLY. Him comparing Medusa's head to a battery? Annabeth and Grover trying to talk him out of it? THE SONG from earlier? Delightful. The details are different from the books, but everyone is still so in character that I absolutely love it.

1. Holy shit I am so happy I found another person who gets how smart Percy is, and gets that every instance of Percy looking/getting called stupid is due to his dyslexia or people not telling him anything.

2. Which book/chapter is this from? I need to bookmark it ASAP and start shouting it from the metaphorical tumblr hills.

3. We really don't talk about how good a mom Sally is? Like yeah she's badass and gentle but like. She respects Percy. When the school system failed Percy, she's the one who still not only believed that he was smart but still acted like it and probably taught him too. Queen mom Sally Jackson right there.

1.) YEAHH EXACTLY. Or his ADHD 😭 It drives me NUTS whenever Percy is treated as the dumb + comedic guy. Like I get what they're saying and why they're saying it, but sometimes his character gets reduced to JUST that and it hurts my soul. I get that he's funny as a narrator and as a character and sometimes he can be a little "clueless" but it just feels like some people like to think of that as either all he is or a huge part of who he is. I believe I've also seen Leo get this treatment despite literally being insanely smart at such a young age so. that's...fun. They can be funny and smart too 😞

2.) It's from the 10th Anniversary edition of The Lightning Thief! It's Rick's cover letter for the first readers of the manuscript & a note from the narrator. I don't have a copy of that edition myself, but I've seen some pictures of it on Rick's blog and someone posted one of the pages on Reddit (where I got it from).

Here's the full page from Reddit (source) & the picture from Rick's blog where the page is visible (source):

3.) YEEEAHHHH I LOVE HER SO MUCH!!! What I would do to get adopted by her rn. The way she talks to him makes me kinda teary-eyed because she's just so...you can just tell how much she loves Percy and that she would do anything to make sure he grew up resilient and kind in a world that's always out to get him. She believes in him so much that it just makes me lose my mind a little. It's just so sweet and I can't help but feel so moved by it.

I'm not sure if you've read Chalice of the Gods, but there's this scene where (spoilers, kinda) Sally talks to Percy after the whole thing with Hebe and honestly this scene makes me want to sob and cry and weep

“You are a lot of things, Percy. But helpless isn't one of them.”

the AnWL guide by dengeki arrived in the mail today and i’m losing my mind so have some Just Rock rough translation stuff

this guide is more thorough and like. official? with cute comics and even an interview with wada… (i translated the rock one asap but gustafa and marlin have ones too! and a bunch of cute pony!!! yayyyy!)

i wanna sit down and translate and format more sections in full when i have time, but for now i’ll just share a few rock snippets then get back to Drawring because i will explode if i don’t!

spoilers for uh… rock mystery solving…?

starting with the point blank shotgun blast to the face because the guide fell open to this page and i was immediately KOd by it!!

i guess that’s not the biggest surprise but i’m more surprised that they just outright said it in his little bio… i think this is the closest to canon closure we’ll get on this mystery

loserboy

the interview with yasuhiro wada is extremely interesting. he breaks down the personalities of the bachelors and their dynamics with the rivals. i want to post it but i’m especially anxious about making a mistake in anything mr. wada says so i want to consult with someone who knows japanese past a sufficient-to-play-farming-game-level first

but i’m confident in these so here

—Rock, Marlin, and Gustafa are the candidates for marriage, but why were these three chosen?

Wada-san: They were picked from among the men in Forgotten Valley by a kind of process of elimination (laugh)

officially just a silly guy

Percy going "they are trying their best" immediately followed up by "I've meet your dad" TO LUKE

ohh baby why would you think that was okay to say it???

navia being one of the only fontainian characters who frequently doesn't bother with any titles or honorifics when talking about furina is sooooooooo good

Okay okay okay but Percy and annabeth in the show Annabeth starts out just following the new kid around you know routine shit and Percy is just so lost he doesn’t have his best friend anymore because he got snitched on his moms fucking gone and he fought a motherfucking Minotaur also apparently his dads a god and then she sees him explode a toilet and okay okay maybe he’s one of the big three let’s see him in action during capture the flag he has no fucking clue what’s going on his only friend is luke he’s in the reject cabin this weird girl is talking him and he has a pen that turns into a sword and also his old teacher is apparently a centaur and the weird girl pulled him away from his friend who told him that the girl is really smart so you know he follows her then she ducking abandons him in the middle of Nowhere and he just chills then he gets attacked by the bully girl and then their team won at capture the flag and then he gets pushed in the water and then he’s claimed by Poseidon and now they’re on a quest and then they get attacked by furies and then there’s Medusa and now they’re friends and now they’re in a train together and then they get attacked by echidna and then Percy is poisoned by the chimera and then Annabeth finds out her mother doesn’t care.

She was embarrassed by annabeths impertinence and so she has to save her two friends, one of which is poisoned. She has to sacrifice herself.

Percy finds out he got Annabeth in trouble. His only friends are gonna die because of him impertinence. He has to sacrifice himself.

A child of the big three sacrifices themself again to save Annabeth and Grover.

An overconfident arch-villain immediately turning into a sopping wet kitty cat when the tables turn is always hilarious to me.

For context, Skeletor spent the whole episode gleefully explaining how he pulled of his diabolical plan to steal the sword of power and become the immortal master of the universe. Then this happens.

really kind of sucks realizing that people you know are living your dream life and not knowing how to ask them about it

anyway getting yelled at by my boss unexpectedly at fucking 9:30am has thrown me off so bad I've barely been productive all day l o l
