mfs just now discovering percy jackson as if it wasn't my one of my greatest middle school hyperfixations that catapulted into me being obsessed with greek mythology, cuisine and history for a long while which inadvertently changed the course of my life as it inspired me to study other cultures to gain a deeper understanding of humanity around the world
love how people are remembering that in everyone else's pov percy is described as this scary super powerful demigod and then in his own pov he's thinking stuff like "I wonder if blue mac & cheese will stain my teeth"
I loved how Annabeth was like “I’m sorry” before she pushed Percy in the water, that was so Annabeth of her. She knew her theory was right but she didn’t want him to hate her.
the Percy Jackson series was actually specifically created for the girls who read the books as bookworm preteens and are now adults who haven't touched a book in 5 years
I started watching Merlin under the assumption that I’d get some fun history nerd moments and that Merthur was just another fannon mlm ship with little canonical basis but HOLY SHIT I’ve literally seen cannon straight couples with less sexual tension than whatever the fuck those two had going on.
