Sorry, need to get this out of my head:
In Magnus Chase and the Sword of Summer, Magnus mentioned that his family originated from Swedish Kings, or that they are related to the old kings of Sweden.
Now. If he meant from his dads side (aka Frey) then that would make obvious sense, since north mythology is originally from Sweden, Norway and Denmark.
But since he is talking about his mom when he mentions it, we can all assume the Chase family is originally Swedish/ Scandinavian. Which mean: both Magnus AND Annabeth are both related to kings, aka royal/ royal blood.
And my funny theory is that they are related to the one and only Gustav Vasa, who famously slept around with like half of Sweden before he was crowned (and possibly after lmao). In history books, it says that he got 11 kids, but I’m sure that’s just what he knew of lol.
And fun fact: in 2018, a man called Per Andersson, (related to Gustav Vasa) researched and send out a letter to around 24.000 people/families who were related to him as well. Or well, he started when he was 14 years old (now like mid 60’s) but decided to map out the people and send them and their family a letter in 2018.
And according to Wikipedia, there is around 135.000 living relatives to Vasa, and if we count the people who got married into the family and/or lives together with these people, there is about 200.000.
And to think of this, knowing that the first edition of MCGOA came out in 2015, just makes me so happy that Rick probably had no idea what he was writing (or maybe he did, who knows) and then just 3 years later finding out about this is just so funny to me.
So, to think that, if Magnus and Annabeth was real, for them to get a letter just saying: congratulations, you’re related to one of Swedens biggest/ most successful kings, is just hilarious to me. Cuz goddamnit would Percy and Alex and Mallory and TJ and everybody on the 19th floor make fun of them.

I need help!!!
Hello, hi, how are ya? Long time, no post.
So! I’m currently doing a little project of my own, and it involves the characters form the Riordan Universe, aka:
Percy Jackson and the Olympians
Heroes of Olympus
Magnus Chase and the Norse Gods
The Kane Chronicles
The trials of Apollo
Right now I’m reread all of Rick’s books and as always I’m totally in love.
But to the problem!
This thing I’m doing has with “realistic” looks and “social-life”. I’m basically trying to show how the characters would handle a phone and social media. I’m not gonna go into detail to much because, well it’s not an original idea, I’ve seen “how pjo/hoo’s Instagram’s would looks like” and stuff (I’m sure we all have seen something like that right??)
Anyways, I’m currently trying to find someone who would represent Amir Fadlan, aka Samirah’s fiancé in the Magnus Chase series. And I’ve seen very handsome guys who could be him, but I really, really want to stick to the ethnicity of all of the characters (as good as I can at least).
And according to the Riordan wiki on fandom.com:
“Amir is an Arab American in his late teens, eighteen or nineteen. He has slick dark hair, Arabic symbols tattooed on his biceps, and a bright smile.”
And I think it’s obvious, but everyone pictures him, and every other character, different.
I’m looking for a Arab American with a little darker skin, no facial hair and hair down to like the jaw. The tattoos aren’t needed.
I’ve been trying for DAYS to find someone that I personally feel like Amir, but can the the love of god find anyone.
So if you find someone on the internet, could be a model, celebrity or just a random person you find on Instagram or Pinterest, but if you find THAT person, please DM me or like comment on this post.

"I thought horses was your favorite animal?" "Yes, they are. But the I choose a lion because they are a really strong animal. And it will be a reminder for me every time I look at it; that even if I feel like every hope is gone, I will always be strong enough to try again, and that I will win over whatever tries to hurt me."

“Hey, guys?” “Yeah, big guy?” “First of all: don’t call me that. Second: I- I saw a, eh, a ta-tattoo- stud-studio down t-there. A-and I have thought about getting a -a tattoo in a l-long time… and I don’t had the time at home, so-” “Yes.” “W-what?” “Tattoo. Now. I want one.” “Woah, hold on Piper! You want a tattoo all the sudden?!” “Yeah? I love tattoos, and if Frank want one now, why can’t we go get a tattoo together? Who wants a tattoo now?” *Percy, Frank, Nico, Piper, Hazel, Leo, Reyna and Rachel raised their hands* “Okey! Now that’s clear, we’re gonna get tattooed!” “WHAT?!”
Frank has always wanted a tattoo (except the one he got from Camp Jupiter), and it turns out that some of the others also wants a tattoo.
(Note: I LOVE TATTOOS!!! And I think that I have found some ones that the demigods may want to have)
