“I thought about May Castellan, alone in her kitchen, baking cookies and making sandwiches for a son who would never come home.”

I think Percy meeting May Castellan is so fucked up because he wasn't just seeing what happened to her, he's seeing what could've happened to Sally.

He's seeing Sally Jackson baking endless batches of burnt blue cookies, waiting for her Percy to come home.

That maybe he was better off for not having Poseidon back in his life at all.

thinking about the parallels between Percy and Luke. thinking about their relationships with their parents, with their mothers, with how their fathers left their mothers. thinking about how everything Percy does is because of and for his mother. thinking about how Luke sees himself in Percy. thinking about how Luke never got to have the type of relationship with his mom that Percy has with his bc of the gods. thinking about how Luke visited his mom one last time before getting possessed by Kronos

Ok so since Charlie Bushnell (Luke Castellan) is part Japanese, petition to change May Castellan to Mai Castellan.

idk i just think it would be neat.

I will always wonder what happened to May Castellan after PJO. Did her madness go away when Hades wiped the curse? Did she find out that Luke died? How does she pay for her house/get food etc? (Hermes maybe?) Just so many questions and I hope she is doing okay

okay but the may castellan scenes in tlo broke me. i mean. did may watch her luke take his own life? did she see that luke was his own undoing? did her baking countless of cookies for her son remedy the surge of despair? grieving a boy who has not yet died but will never return?

I can't believe we are already touching on May Castellan. In fives years (or more) we are going to finally see her and find out what happened-so rewarding.

may castellan is sitting there in her house with her peanut butter sandwiches and cookies and kool-aid, waiting for her son, her baby, her little boy to come home for lunch, but he isn't. luke isn't coming home. he's been gone for more than thirteen years, and he isn't returning. he's dead now, and yet she still waits because she still believes he's going to come back to her. her precious son.

I have read the PJO series many, many, many times over my life, and so objectively I knew the ways in which Percy and Luke were two sides of the same coin- even Percy himself recognized how easy it could have been for him to have ended up in Luke's place. But, I just watched an animatic on TikTok that kind of blew the lid off of it for me. The funny thing though? After watching the video, my first thought wasn't about Percy and Luke; my first thought after it looped was wow, I never realized how paralleled the lives of May Castellan and Sally Jackson are.

It doesn't require much delving into fandom content to come across any one of the myriad posts touching on Percy's "mama's boy" title because he is one- plain and simple. However, this particular TikTok had granted the title to Luke freaking Castellan- something I had never seen, or perhaps never cognized, before. Naturally it got me thinking: how would Percy react if May's fate had happened to Sally, instead?

Sally Jackson has true-sight; it's what led to her meeting Poseidon in the first place. And much like Hermes wanting to stay around/with May- Poseidon, too, wanted to keep Sally around. He went as far as offering to build her a castle on the sea floor for her to live in so he could come visit her.

I've struggled with Luke's anger towards Hermes about May's fate for a long time. I struggled because, while I knew that some of it was simply the irrationality of human emotions and the fact that Luke was a child, I couldn't get over the fact that Luke so blatantly chose to overlook the fact that Hermes was against May's attempt to take on the Oracle's spirit. Now, however, if we look at it from the perspective of "if it were Percy and Sally" I can understand that Percy would blame his father because by simply existing and being in her life he condemned her to this fate.

Perhaps Luke did know/understand that Hermes had tried to talk May out of her plan to become the oracle. Perhaps Luke just didn't care; what if his issue was with the existence of Hermes and the rest of the gods and the simple existence of their world? If the world of the gods and demigods and CHB had never come into contact with his mother's world- if the world of Olympus had never existed at all, then May Castellan would have been totally fine.

This might be nothing, or maybe everybody has already come to this realization and I'm just arriving late to the party. May Castellan was also born with the gift of prophecy whereas Sally was not- so it's not even like an exact parallel. I had just never looked at Luke under the scope of a boy who loved his mother the same way that Percy loves Sally, and it kind of blew my mind. Anywho, if anyone reads this sorry for subjecting you to my stream-of-consciousness; I just needed a sounding board (to write it out) in order to organize my thoughts.

Starting to understand how and why May Castellan went insane. I KNOW Luke’s fate, I KNOW the choices he makes, and his MOST IMPORTANT, his FINAL choice, but seeing him here, reassuring Percy and promising to always be on Annabeth’s side, He’s just my baby boy! My heart! My Son!

It’s so crazy to think how Percy could have ended up like Luke - their situations are so eerily similar, only a few years seperate them and it makes you wonder. What if Sally had been the one in May’s place?
