#“she met a pinecone's fate”

[drberfarious]

percy looking off to the side at annabeth right before he's about to sing the consensus song 'cause he's a twelve-year-old trying to see how the girl he likes is going to react to some dumb shit he's about to do yeah I see you man

#“watch this trick” energy fr #ep4 edit: it's all fun and games until annabeth gets disowned by her mom #sometimes the humor does get in the way though #“she met a pinecone's fate” #i'm not gonna rant #because a lot of people have said what I want to say #but the show does make me laugh sometimes #pjo #percy jackon and the olympians #percy jackson #annabeth chase #pjo tv show #pjo tv series #pjo disney+ #walker scobell #pjo tv spoilers

show percy will eventually make another very out of pocket comment about the fact that zeus' best idea to save thalia was turning her into a tree but that time he'll add the fact that his dad grabbed him from a free fall instead of turning him into seaweed or a seagull or a horse and i live for the reaction of whoever is on the receiving end

#bro has the capability #he doesnt like the gods enough as it is #she met a hero’s fate #no she met a pinecone’s fate #at least her dad did something to save her 🙄 #so did mine but you don’t see me green and rooted to the ocean floor #😨 #pjo tv show #pjo series #percy jackson #pjo poseidon #thalia grace #pjo zeus #percy jackson tv series

"she met a pinecone's fate" was hysterical the first time around and it's still funny but the longer I think about it the more unsure I actually am about the line

#it just feels so. callous. or like. it doesn't FEEL callous cause it's not portrayed that way and you laugh and I'm still laughing #but like. it's callous that is a callous thing to say and it's not like percy doesn't have dickishness to spare #but on this specific thing? really? he's not like that #like. this is after being told the full story so he knows what happened to thalia #and his response to effectively hearing about how this girl died for her friends and not just any friends but the people he's with rn #is “she met a pinecone's fate” a like. dismissive joke about what happened to her #like in the books percy empathizes with thalia's situation he feels for her it's tragic it's a somber moment😭😭 #she was a demigod more powerful than the others she was hunted even more than they usually are (percy relates) #and she died for her friends (definitely something percy relates to and would value lol) #and on TOP OF THAT. to say this in front of grover and annabeth? who clearly loved her a lot?? #like. percy doesn't like annabeth atp but he doesn’t hate her enough to be crossing those sorts of lines?? #and GROVER. is literally his best friend. can you not figure that thalia's death probably weighs on him #oh wait I just remembered at that point in the episode he doesn't know grover was with them lol sorry ignore that bit #anyway. like I get it it's funny and they have a lightly antagonistic relationship in ttc so it's funny!! #like haha he's ALREADY getting his digs in!! #but. idk. feels a bit mean :/ #pjo #pjo tv #dropping episode 3 thoughts mere hours before episode 4 lmao #I'm not gonna be able to watch 4 tonight though lol

do you think thalia could still hear the ppl around her when she was a tree

#does this mean she heard percy say she met a pinecones fate #percy jackon and the olympians #percy jackson #annabeth chase #thalia grace

[team-half-blood]

Zeus, what did we mortals ever do to you?

Your Thalia already met a pinecone’s fate.

#pjo tv show #zeus #she already met a pinecone’s fate

[mischiefmanifold]

watching pjo episode 3 and everyone is really ganging up on thalia holy shit

#percy: “she met a pinecone's fate” #alecto: “a bunch of squirrels are making her their home” #like holy fuck man leave her alone #pjo posting

[joyglass]

Percy is SO sassy in the show it's driving me insane

#'she met a pinecone's fate' #'Canadian or from Chuck E. Cheese's' #'strongest being in the universe's best idea to save his daughter was to turn her into a tree?'

[sixofbabycrows]

i know “she met a pinecone’s fate” gagged everyone but also i don’t think it was meant as a dig towards thalia but more so towards zeus and the gods in general - like this was not “hero’s fate” and they shouldn’t be thinking of it as zeus saving thalia cause if that’s all the most powerful god can do for his own child then the gods highkey suck

SHE MET THE FATE OF A PINECONE

#pjo #thalia grace #percy jackson #percy jackon and the olympians #😭😭😭😭😭😭 #IM DYINGGGG #percy gave exactly 0 fucks #he said idc that’s one of your best friends she still deserves to get roasted for being a fucking tree #posts of lark

[ofswordsandpens]

it feels like the show is nailing certain aspects about the characters but only at the completely wrong time because Percy saying "she met a pinecone's fate"... don't get me wrong, the moment feels very true to the part of Percy that is a little shit <3 and it is funny, but it just stands in such stark contrast of his canon kindness and sympathy when he first learned of Thalia's fate that I'm just sitting here like ???

Like when Percy learns about Thalia in the book, he's very moved by her fate:

So comparing this reaction to the onscreen portrayal, its just like wild that the writers thought this was a "faithful change" lmao. Even if the line is criticizing the gods, it feels as if it comes at the expense of Percy's sincere empathy. imo the pinecone line feels much better suited to a future season where there's active animosity between Percy and Thalia, not when Percy is learning about a girl who died saving her friends.

#I edited cause I feel like I wasn't being clear enough <3 #like I get he's being critical of the gods? but it still it doesn't quite hit the mark #also I am such a dick!percy truther #and this just doesn't feel right #pjo adaptation #pjo #pjo show crit #percy jackson #thalia grace

[hailperseusjackson]

annabeth having a quiet moment with thalia’s tree and grover talking about her sacrifice and annabeth saying “she met a hero’s fate” only for percy to come back immediately swinging with “she met a pinecone’s fate” fucking incredible no notes

#he’s SO FUNNY!!!!! #they’re all so perfect!!!! #also we love a ‘pinecone face’ TTC reference #percy jackson #pjo #pjotv #pjotv spoilers #pjo spoilers

“Percy…” Imagine

Day 20 of celebration marathon

Percy Jackson x Sibling!Reader

-♡I have no clue. I’m rewatching pjo and the thought of smacking his head as his siblings just makes sense.

-♡ warning: short, sibling slightly fighting, Percy being insensitive.

You hated staring at the tree annabeth leaned her hands on. Knowing that could have been you, or your brother somehow. All you wanted to do was keep him safe but this quest seemed like it wasn’t going to be easy. And Percy liked to run off on his own.

“So the most powerful beings best idea to save is daughter,” you turn your gaze to your shorter brother. You couldn’t imagine what he was going to say, “was to turn her into a tree?”

“Percy..”

“She was the bravest Demigod I ever knew,” the three of you turn to look at annabeth approaching. “She fought valiantly, and she met a hero’s fate.” You sympathize with her. You could tell they were sister of some sort and to think of Percy like that..

“She met a pinecones fate.” Never mind, you’d turn him into a tree now.

Your hand launched forward and smacked the back of Percy’s head and he let out a yelp in pain. He mumbled but you flick his forehead again.

“Keep talking like that and I’ll put you in the ground myself.” Percy rubbed the back of his head and didn’t bother looking up at you, knowing the glare you’d be giving him.

“Alright.”
