was thinking about next-gen kids and decided to doodle a couple. elaborated thoughts below:
Iphis is named with the same naming conventions that Sally used when naming Percy - primarily, mythological figure who had a good fate. Nice for Percy to honor his mom by naming his own kid the same way and Annabeth gets a fun nerdy mythology name. Also sending good vibes to their kid. Plus middle name directly in honor of Sally, of course.
Specific myth is Iphis and Ianthe, with the idea that a.) it's gender-neutral so works regardless of kid's gender and b.) not only does Iphis have a good fate, but arguably nothing bad happens to them ever and they get helped out by like three whole pantheons who show up in a literal parade and they live happily ever after. Percy and Annabeth are pushing for the BEST vibes possible.
(Also I am a very strong proponent of the "I don't think they'd name their kids after dead family/friends" so none of them have that)
Iphis of course inherited the Jackson family early grey hairs <3
Virginia is named after Juniper (cause Juniper is specifically implied to be Juniperus virginiana). She's probably been childhood bffs with Iphis since Iphis was born.
Chuck is Chuck. I gave him a Yankees jersey cause you know he's being raised as a sporty kid.
Do you ever think about how OP Frank and Hazel's kid would be. It's ridiculous. Quadruple legacy, including 2/3 of the Big Three. Frank by himself was already so OP the gods had to nerf him. Hazel came back from the dead and Frank kinda just said "nope" to dying that one time. Hazel presumably has every power that Nico has which is. A lot. Not to mention what Hazel has been shown to just be able to do on her own (including but not limited to SINKING AN ENTIRE SMALL ISLAND). Ares/Mars kids can functionally be completely invulnerable sometimes and also have some limited necromancy. Combo that with Hades/Pluto kids also being hard to kill and having necromancy as one of their main powers. Not to mention how Pluto geokinesis might combo with Chloris (goddess of spring) powers? And this kid is 100% being protected by both Nico (who is probably a deity by that point) and probably Pluto himself as well? Hello?
Anyways Hazel and Frank's kid is a total powerhouse. Possibly functionally immortal. Easily strongest demigod of her generation.
I like to think the latent Chloris legacy would crop up (probably in combo with Mars and Poseidon's plant aspects) and give them an accidental Persephone-type theme and that's fun. Frazel's goth daughter who takes after her grandmother (and uncle).
Figured since Frank is Canadian and Hazel is from Louisiana they'd go for a French name. The flower theme was not intentional on their part it just happened. Law of demigod naming conventions appears nonetheless.
I figure Leo might not have kids of his own but he probably still hangs around with Hazel and Frank so of course he's going to make their kid a cool thematic robot pet. He's probably her godfather or something.
Ronan is literally just some kid who showed up at the Chase Space who coincidentally was a legacy of Freyr and could shapeshift. Magnus and Alex obviously can't have kids cause they're dead, BUT some orphan with essentially a combo of their powers just shows up on their doorstep? Their kid now.
The ironic part is of course their shapeshifting powers just happen to be because they're distantly related to one of Annabeth's friends. Ronan finds himself suddenly gaining two parents and two cousins (Iphis and Lily) in rapid succession.
He only picks up Magnus' last name though cause Alex has 100% disowned her mortal parents.
He has a seal flipper cause shapeshifting and apparently "Ronan" means seal. I just wanted to draw those two showcasing their shapeshifting a lil bit.
Might try to doodle the other next-gen kid thoughts I had at some point but idk when. anyways yeah.

Jumping on to the Danny the ghost king reincarnation vacations prompt. Danny is reborn in the PJO universe as Sally Jackson's Uncle.
-When Sally's parents die when she is young she goes to live with her eccentric Uncle Danny who actually cares and loves her. Because of this Sally didn't dropout of high school and went on to college.
-Sally still gets pregnant with Percy at 23, Danny is not happy about the father not being involved or Sally getting involved with the Gods but he supports Sally's decisions. Up until she decides she is going to marry Gabe for his monster repealing scent. Danny puts his foot down he will not have his niece marry such an abusive/ misogynistic asshole.
-Danny talks Sally out of marry Gabe and moves in with her to help raise Percy. Also while Danny might not have any of his powers, he still carries an aura/scent of someone powerful and that keeps monster away and masks Percy's powerful halfblood scent
-Percy grows up calling Danny Grandpa. Danny finds the incidents that keep happening to Percy that keeps getting expelled from school hilarious. Reminds him of his luck when he was alive the first time.
-When Grover meets Percy's Grandpa for the first time, he is scared out of his mind. He is not sure what he is smelling but it making all his instincts say run.
-Danny is in the car with Sally, Percy and Grover as they are racing to camp halfblood being chased by the minotaur. Danny dies protecting them from Zeus bolt of lightening. Everything progresses the same after that with Sally being captured/ transported to the underworld, Percy defeating the minotaur.
-Since Danny died technically his vacation is over, but he decides to stick around for a little bit longer to take care of unfinished business. While Percy is asleep in the halfblood infirmary, Danny decides to presents/disguise himself as a new teen halfblood camper.
-He make sure makes friends with Percy and supports him when the camp ignores him when they find out he godly parent is Poseidon. He barges his way onto the quest, ignoring Chiron's advice about 3 people being the best number for the quest. No way is he not supervising Percy's first quest especially after so little training and knowledge.
-When the four get to the underworld, Danny tells Percy to take Sally and leave. Percy is very reluctant to leave Danny, but does as Danny asks. Hades was against this but as Danny stares at Hades, he knows instinctively not to stop them. When the group leaves, Danny unleashes his aura as the Ghost King and goes off on Hades for kidnapping his niece. While Danny is not the technically Hades boss, he is more the more powerful deity.
-After Percy's quest is over and he is reunited with Sally, Danny meets up them and comes clean that he is Grandpa/Uncle Danny. He wanted to say some final goodbyes to both of them. That he would be watching over them and they were both welcome to join his realm when they died. That due to his status as Ghost King, he was limited in how he could interfere with the living realm, but would be keeping an eye on them.
-Also before Danny totally leaves, he makes sure to appear before the other Olympians. To give Zeus a piece of his mind in how he goes about blaming innocents with out looking at the facts. Also he gives Poseidon a belated shovel talk about Sally.

Was thinking about a baby Percy AU where a heartbroken Sally, terrified out of her mind that her baby will die, wishes for her to be sent somewhere she will be safe, even if that means away from her (a la Moses).
Thus Baby Percy gets sent to the ROR verse and is found by the guards patrolling the Bifrost who mistake her for a purely human baby whose soul got lost in their way to the human part of Valhalla upon death so they sent her packing to the correct heaven. Who do they deliver her to?
Why, Adam of course. Father of Humanity, anyone?
And Adam immediately knows something is off about the little girl the guard gods just shoved into his arms (be more careful, will you?!) besides the fact he’s 90% sure she’s alive but. Well. It’s Free Baby.
Adam accepts the baby and doesn’t say a word. The Guard Gods pat themselves on the back for a job well done.
(Meanwhile back at the Bifrost, Zeus and Hades look around in confusion because they were sure they’d felt Poseidon arriving.)
Fast forward a couple years and rumors about a growing child starts seeping out of the human part of Valhalla. Adam and Even had another child, they say. A daughter, they say. A daughter alive and growing and that has powers no human should ever wield.
A daughter, Hermes realizes with horror when he’s sent to investigate, that feels an awful lot like his Lord Uncle Poseidon.
Back at the Bifrost, the Guard Gods feel a chill run down their spines. They don’t know how or why, but they just know they fucked up.
I FUCKING LOVE THIS IDEA?????? adam as percy's father omgggggggggg 🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺 this is such a cute au 😭💖💖💖💖
i can just imagine the reaction on adam and eve's faces when percy starts manipulating water despite the fact that they're 90% sure that she's supposed to be human and shouldn't be able to Do That, but adam just going "oh well" and just going with the flow 😭💖
AND THEN THE FUTURE CUSTODY BATTLE BETWEEN ADAM AND POSEIDON ASFHJHFGVHJG
rhea and hades are gonna be so pissed with poseidon tho: "YOU HAD A BABY AND YOU NEVER BOTHERED TO TELL ME?! HOW COULD YOU ABANDON HER?!"
poseidon: i didn't even know she existed 😐
hades and rhea: *beats him up*
this is gonna be the custody battle of a lifetime and i feel like this would also cause ragnarok 💀 the humans want baby percy to be raised by their best dad adam and the gods want percy to be with her godly father 😭

700 Followers Milestone Event - yandere!poseidon with mitsuri!daughter! short story 🍡
Tumblr media Tumblr media
warnings: toxic family environment, toxic relationships, ooc, infidelity.
The intention of this story is for entertainment purposes only. The behavior exhibited here is inappropriate and unhealthy, hence it should not be encouraged. There are also triggers, so please take caution. You are responsible for your Internet consumption!
You tried to be a good daughter.
You were the second eldest child of the great god Poseidon and his wife Amphirite. While Triton is the heir apparent, you fawned over him and your younger sister Benthesikyme when the rulers of all the oceans wasn’t around. You tried your best to be there for them, shouting with joy when they achieved something, big or small, comforting them when they needed a big hug or wanted to share a yummy meal in the empty dining hall because they were lonely.
But sometimes…it wasn’t enough. The love of an older sister, that is.
Triton wanted your father’s approval. Bethesikyme wanted your mother to look at her instead of waiting for your father to come to her chambers when she knew he hadn’t been there in years, centuries even. Neither of your parents were concerned about you…especially after your hair had changed from shimmering [Hair Color] locks to light pink with green ends as a result of eating too much sakura mochi.
No one wanted a wife with such a hideous blend of colors or had a large appetite, much less pass these traits down to their children, even from a daughter of Poseidon. At least that was what the last person had said to you during a marriage interview. Their remark…it hurt a lot. Proteus had to walk you out of the seashell garden after standing in a shocked state for almost four hours.
So you tried to change. Dyeing your hair black, cutting back on how much food you consumed, and working super hard in your lessons to become someone your father might be proud of…but it didn’t make you happy. Quite the opposite, actually.
Because no matter what you did, you would never become the perfect child in your father’s eyes. He told you as much with that cold stare of his. You were not perfect, nothing more than a speck of sand that was hardly worth noticing.
When that happened….well, as stupid as it sounds now….you left. You just left the palace without saying good-bye, leaving only a letter for your siblings, Proteus, the cooks, and all of your tutors, thanking them for looking after you and hoping that they’ll find happiness someday.
You found refuge in Valhalla, and for the first time in a long while, you could breathe. You could style your hair in any manner you desired, ate as much as you wanted, and even found a job working for the Demon Slayer Corps! It was a little weird at first, asking your uncle to help adjust into this place without saying a word to your father, but he was someone you could trust.
He knew that the reason you ate so much isn’t because you were a glutton, rather it was due to possessing an abnormal muscle condition that required a lot of calories and daily exercise to maintain. Six months later, you advanced from the Final Selection exam and were currently being mentored by the Flame Hashira Rengoku.
The humans who were part of Uncle Hades’ organization were so sweet and cool, how could you hate them? They accepted you for who you were and never made any harsh judgements towards you. Even their big boss, Lord Ubuyashiki, said that your talent was a gift! A gift, not a burden.
Goodness, it still brought a tear to your eyes when you remembered his words. But now isn't the time to be distracted! Today was your first solo mission, and you had to make Rengoku proud! Being a Demon Slayer means protecting people, and that’s what you’re gonna do!
Anyone who hurts others, even demons…they will receive no love from you. Not even a speck of mercy.
Bonus Content:
Unbeknownst to the Demon Slayer, however, it was getting difficult for Hades to keep lying to his little brother about the whereabouts of his niece. After [First Name] left the ocean, Poseidon had been searching for her, demanding answers with a scowl etched across his face. Hades did not have children himself, yet in a way he can understand that everyone needed space, or needed to leave a toxic environment in order to thrive…but why in Gaia’s name would [First Name] even think that her father hated her?
Poseidon adored his daughter.
He chased away suitors with ill intentions, increased the difficulty of her lessons so as to remove her limitations and thrive under pressure, even hired more palace chefs to cook her meals!
Whenever he was away to do some business that did not involve an illicit affair, he’d always bring a trinket back for her, but Amphirite snatched it up under the belief that the gift was her.
The sea goddess was still desperate for his attention, even when their love for each other had waned over the last couple of centuries.
Now that [First Name] was on the path of becoming a Hashira, the lord of the underworld had an obligation as both the divine overseer of the Demon Slayer Corps and as a brother, to tell Poseidon the truth. And yet…was it even the right thing to do, when all the reports he’s received from Ubuyashiki showed that leaving the ocean allowed his niece to be the happiest she’d been in a long, long time?
There was no doubt Poseidon would drag her back home to be punished, and that smile of hers would disappear as soon as she dove under the waves. The pressure to be perfect is a crushing one, even for the child of godly perfection.
Hades sighed softly, pressing his fingers against the side of his head as he felt a migraine creeping in. What should he do?

Ares x (GN) reader
Plot: Ares discovers the best hair oil in his life. 🤍
A/N: Ares said, “We need more Cécred!” 🗣️
Warnings: none
Quiet mornings were the best.
Ares, the god of war was sleeping in.
Tumblr media
The morning sun had already risen as the handsome, well toned god was sleeping peacefully as he kindly snored a bit. Laying beside him was his lover, his beloved and a sweet lover of many years.
Ah, but even the gods can’t always have everything.
The bedroom door opened as a familiar god entered, used to waking up his brother from his sleep. “Wake up!” Throwing a pillow at his brother making Ares choke on his own spit waking (Name) in the process.
“What’s going on?”
Both Ares and (Name) asked in unison still waking up from their sleep, Ares blonde hair was essientally all over the place. Hercules, sighed as he informed Ares that he was sent to get Ares as he had a meeting today and the other gods were waiting for him.
Panic set in as the god of war rushed to find his clothes, sighing Hercules mentioned he told Ares about the meeting yesterday and not to forget. Ares yelled while in the bathroom that he didn’t forget he was just sleeping.
“Well, since I’m not needed..I’m going back to sleep.”
(Name), like anyone else, decided to get back in bed and sleep. Meanwhile, Ares had quickly managed to get dressed and being pressed for time decided to grab whatever. Luckily, Ares grabbed some hair oil in a fancy bottle as he quickly read “Cécred” “Nourishing hair oil.” Ares didn’t think nothing of it as he was pressed for time and added the hair oil in his hair.
“…Hey.”
Ares quickly looked in the mirror and noticed his hair was shiny and his frizz was gone. It actually looked really nice, his hair strands were smoother and even his curl that was in front on his face was bouncier. Before Ares left he gave (Name) a kiss on the cheek and thanked her for the oil. Once he left, (Name) arose from the bed realizing that Ares meant the nourishing hair oil that (Name) bought and a few days ago.
“…He used my Cécred?!”
Checking the small bottle (Name) could tell Ares used it, and while most people probably would have been upset (Name) was more concerned with how Ares looked as (Name) was still half way asleep and didn’t get a good look at Ares.
In the meeting, Apollo was the first to notice.
Technically, it was Hercules who noticed but from the gods it was Apollo who noticed how well put and beautiful Ares hair was. The god of light complimented so much Ares that Hermes took notice.
“What did you use?”
“Do you have anymore of that hair oil?”
For once Ares was bombed with questions from the gods and since he liked the attention he mentioned that it was (Name)’s hair oil and that he just grabbed it without thinking.
“Yes, but what it called? The name of the hair oil?”
Apollo asked as he really wanted to know so he could get some of his own. Ares, squinting his eyes as he recalled the name on the bottle and came out with several names that wasnt the name until he finally said “Cécred” Apollo and Hermes had never heard of it before but would make a visit to ask (Name) themselves.
Throughout the day everyone complimented Ares on his hair, and felt proud his beloved had great quality taste in hair care.
When he returned home that morning (Name) was waiting for Ares, Ares could tell his beloved used the hair oil because of how beautiful their hair looked. The two shared a kiss while Ares embraced his beloved in his strong arms.
Both having shiny and well moisturized hair.
Tumblr media
“What is this?!”
Apollo saw his two uncles Poseidon and Hades with shiny and moisturized hair sitting in the meeting room. Hermes, also had his hair styled differently, with his parted one side as he informed Apollo he tried the Cécred and he liked it. Hades and Poseidon had managed to get their hands on the bottle and recommend Apollo try it.
Apollo grabbed Hermes and told him to take him to the place where he could get this amazing hair oil.
Apollo needed to get his hands on that hair oil at all costs. Human made or not.

alright I have a weird headcanon idea I really need to get off my brain so that I can focus on studying:
how about a "bring your parent to school camp" - day and the Big Three are forced with the Small Three into some weird competition games but like "get in touch with your uncle" - style (bc Chiron read about an amazing "family bonding" technique he wants to try). and the teams are the worst but also the funniest like:
- Percy and Zeus
- Thalia and Hades
- Nico and Poseidon
just imagine their dynamics showing off like: Nico and Poseidon having a blast with each other bc "damn my emo and almost dead looking nephew is super smart and cool, ofc he's strange af but don't you tell him he is trying all his best and bruh he has so much potential you made a good one there Hades". These two are winning at every goddamn game but are just talking about how Nico's life is going, how hard shadow travel is and how exactly it works, if he wants to visit Poseidon's palace one day and- "WHAT YOU DIDN'T LEARN HOW TO SWIM IN THE 30s?!?! My great Boy, I will teach you-"
Hades is jealous as hell bc his son has more fun with this slimy oyster bitch than with him and Thalia becoming Hades #1 therapist and giving him all the best parenting advice (bc her dad is one of the shittiest of them all-) from a lifelong teenager perspective. They both have the most comfiest and deepest talks about how hard it has to be dealing with depression and how the right communication helps to understand each other.
And then there are Zeus and Percy just arguing with each other, completely failing at every game bc Zeus is Zeus-ing again and gotta tell our favorite boy how "it has to be done" and makes everything even worse. They even lose after Thalia and Hades, who are both just ignoring the games, sitting near the Hades cabin, continuing their deep talk. They argue that hard that Zeus sets something on fire due to lightning and Percy refuses to put it out (it's Hera's cabin-)...
... I'm sorry, but this exists rent free in my head. I really need to draw that lol okay bye!

Poseidon's demi-god child is now named "Umiko" (child of the sea) While her hero name is "Maris" (based on the latin phrase "Stella Maris"! meaning star of the sea) Anyways, can I have Poseidon's reaction to his demi-god child having some admirers? (aka all of class 1-A just having a crush on her) Like part of him is proud that she's attracting people but another part of him is like "Must.Protect.Not.Worthy". Poseidon is a total girl dad, I'm calling it-
-The portal opened in Valhalla and Zeus lit up, “Umiko!!” you beamed brightly, looking so unlike your stoic father, “Uncle Zeusy~~!!” the two of you embraced warmly.
-Poseidon rolled his eyes lightly, trying to hide that he was amused, “Must you two do this every time Umiko comes over?”
-You both turned in unison, still hugging, Zeus pouting, “I haven’t seen my cute little niece for her whole life! I’m making up for lost time!”
-Poseidon chuckled but tilted his cheek up as you pecked it in greeting before you moved to Hades who smiled warmly at you, embracing you.
-Zeus then took notice of the large bag by your side, “What’s that Umiko?” you grinned, setting the large bag down on the large table in the room, “Chocolate from Valentine’s Day!”
-You explained Valentine’s Day to them, as they didn’t know the holiday, while dumping out so many different boxes of chocolate, some handmade and some store bought, “I got way too many so I figured I would share with everyone here!”
-Zeus leapt up with a cheer, making you grin before you felt a dark aura behind you and you turned, seeing Poseidon glaring down at all the treats, “These are all from admirers?”
-You scratched your cheek, a bit embarrassed, “Yeah, most are from my classmates, but there are some from other classes, and a few upperclassmen too.”
-The three men froze, hearing this, that you were getting gifts from older boys before they turned to Poseidon, who was stone faced, but his fury was very apparent.
-Zeus, seeing this as a way to tease his brother, “So~ did you give anyone any chocolates?” Hades turned on his youngest brother, silently asking if he was crazy.
-You beamed brightly, “I did! I made cookies for everyone! I even have some for you guys!”
-Zeus cheered again as you pulled out three bags of beautifully wrapped chocolate chip cookies that were cut in the shapes of hearts, handing each of them one.
-Hades and Zeus both thanked you, but your father was still frozen as the door opened, revealing Ares, Hermes, Hercules, and Aphrodite, who all lit up, seeing you there.
-You immediately ran over and leapt into Ares’ arms, which made him tear up that you hugged him first as the others approached the table, seeing all the sweets.
-Ares bawled into his elbow, holding the bag of cookies you just gave to him like he just received the meaning for his life.
-Aphrodite poked Poseidon’s cheek, thinking it was amusing that he was frozen that you had so many admirers.
-When he finally broke, his hands were quickly on your shoulders, “They all like you, but do you like any of them?” you could hear his tone, one that only spelled out pain to whoever’s name you spoke.
-He instantly deflated when you grinned up at him, “I like all of my classmates, but only as friends. I’m not looking for romance at the moment.” He sunk into his chair, a hand over his eyes as he breathed a sigh of relief.
-Hermes then spoke, “Why do some of these say Maris?” you turned with a grin, your hands on your hips, “That’s my hero name, it’s derived from Stella Maris, or Star of the Sea! Most of the upperclassmen only know me by that name and not my actual name.”
-Hercules beamed down at you, as he was one of the proudest of you when he learned that you were training to be a hero.
-As everyone helped you eat the chocolates, your cheeks turned pink in bashfulness as they all told you that your cookies were the best, which made Poseidon smile, seeing you so happy.
-You breathed a tiny sigh of relief that you managed to fib to your father, as you didn’t want him to kill your crush, before you notice Aphrodite looking at you and she gave you a small grin and a wink, silently promising to keep your secret which made you smile warmly at her.

Can u do the rapunzel reader from the platonic yandere gods fic where they get attacked like a deep gash on her arm bc someone wants her hair to heal or make them younger?
Thx.
It's not safe
Fem! Reader
💚Ask💚
Tumblr media
POSEIDON who took you straight to the infirmary, he didn't scold you he'll leave that to Zeus.
ZEUS who uses this as an example as to why he needs you to be close to him all the time.
HADES who takes the one who hurt you and gives them not a harsh punishment, but rather a long one and let time deal with them. After all, mental punishments are more effective then physical.
ADAMAS who while he agrees with Hades on punishing the person, he much rather cause them physical punishment.
HERMES who takes care of your injuries while your father and uncles "take care" of a the person.
APHRODITE who makes sure you take you to a spa day and plays with your hair, she makes sure you're comfortable and that everything goes the way you want. You're her adorable niece and you must be traumatized, you're just so innocent you can't handle such a traumatizing experience.
ARES who seems calm and takes the time he needs to go after this person's family. Ares needs you to be comfortable so he's the one who dropped you off in Aphrodite's care after Hermes took care of your injuries.
HERACLES who joins Ares in making sure you get justice, how can someone be so cruel and selfish to harm his innocent sister?
ODIN who doesn't do anything, but rather let's Loki do all the work, he let's Loki do everything that he normally doesn't allow him too.
THOR who also let's Loki do all the work, why put so much pressure when Loki can slowly mess with them?
LOKI who makes everything seem like a "prank", he slowly messes with the person's mind while Hades also makes them lose their mind.
SHIVA who also uses this as an excuse as to why you "can't be out on your own", now now don't get him wrong he's doing this for your own protection, it's for the best that you stay either with your dad or one of the "mayor" gods. Besides, you can play with Ganesha all you want and you'll be safe.
ZERO who only figured out you were harmed cause of Buddha telling him, he was clingy for the whole day and wouldn't stop crying, plus, how could you say no to your best friend? He only wants what's best for you.
BUDDHA who knew the consequences of telling Zero and did it anyways, he knows you're one to not do what your father tells you, so why not make sure you listen by making Zero clingy after all, he knows how prone he is to crying.
BEELZEBUB who puts tighter security all around Valhalla and the pantheons, at the request of Zeus obviously. Now there's no place you can go without having several watchful eyes on you.

PJO Show Thoughts. Episode 7: We find out the truth (not)
Alright. I just don't even know. I thought the pacing was marginally better here. Scenes flowed nicer. And I thought the dialogue wasn't so useless.
Yay!!!! Crusty scene!!!!!!
Literally right off the fucking BAT, the first words in the episode are percy explaining exactly what's going to happen, who crusty is, no shenanigans, no mystery, no fun villain scene, nothing. oh my FUCKING GOD, it's every good scene THEY RUIN IT its CRAZY. ACTUALLY CRAZY.
It's the same shit every episode. Oh, fun monster scene where the monster tries to trick them and the fight builds while we figure out who the monster is???? NOPE!!! it's actually complete bullshit. it's ridiculous. where's rick????
Okay I see the red ball. yay!
I'll live with the plot changes even though it sucks. I'll live with it. it's just bad show writing that i'm annoyed with now.
OH MY GOD WHY IS SALLY SUCH A BITCH !!! lolollollL
I did miss the scene were percy bribes charon to let them pass. why change that. why take out a fun bit like that. instead they're like, take everything charon!!! we're so stupid, just let us into the underworld so I can save my mom !!!!!
The cerberus scene was way more complicated than it needed to be lol. but I think the underworld was cool
Back to 3 pearls.... I think rick is just trying to annoy us now.
I do like the flashbacks. My dumbass is just hoping that it all transitions very beautifully into percy's fallen hero arc but these are just my dumb dreams !!!!!!
So annabeth is gone? okay
The root/regret/ thing was completely unnecessary psychology that was stupid
The tartarus, shoe bit was good
"is this our stop, or?" LOL
Hades is weird and awkward and way to cheerful. this god is supposed to be a scorned, jaded ass, lazy, arrogant, bastard, dripping with grease and jealousy and grudges.
DID YALL SEE WHERE HADES WAS LIKE, FOLDING LAUNDRY??? LMAO WHAT
Hades sucks
I just wanted the line, "I'll find your helm, Uncle. I'll return it." nope!!
I guess hades is offering to protect them? because there's going to be a war with kronos and he wants the master bolt for protection ?????? SLOW YOUR ROLL WRITERS. WE'RE NOT FUCKING THERE YET. EVEN WHEN THE WAR WAS A C T I V E L Y occuring hades didn't give a FUCK. whatever. now i'm anger. plus, nothing about how hades sent the furies.... it didn't seem like hades thought percy stole his helm, which was like,,,,, teh whole ass point. jesus christ
Poseidon is meh
Sally is meh
I guess their convo was fine, i didn't mind it. I liked when poseidon was saying that he'll be there for percy, when he knows who he is. Which is cool, even though who percy should "be" is very different to sally. I can't wrap my brain around what the writers want me to be thinking, you know?
no mention again of how they're past the solstice deadline??? you'd think that would have been a bigger deal but OKAY
ares is the best god by far at this point
overall, I really shouldn't be spending so much of my limited free time writing these long posts about the episodes, when I have been getting well, not a whole lot of pleasure watching them. but these characters are still my babies, and I will continue to support the making of the show even though it's blowing chunks. Rick
See yall next week for episode 8: Where's the Damn Fishing Chair Throne

Crafting the most controversial ranking of the olympians (including Hestia and Hades)
DISCLAIMER: THIS POST WAS INSPIRED BY @wanderingmind867
APOLLO: He's just fucking AWESOME???!!! What can I say? He's such a easy to like god when you don't let the stupid retellings poison you. He's the god of writing and music (both topics that I love) and just SO much more. I can't even grasp how much the greeks fucking loved this guy and so do I. In a more fanon-y way, in my head he's the best possible protagonist out of all the olympians for a story. There's so much nuance with him, and I just love psychoanalyzing him. I also think his relationships with other gods and every mortals is so INVESTING and intense if you think about it in the right way. Also I love blondes. Blondes are hot.
ARES: The more people hate him, the more I defend him. He gets so much undeserved bullshit, he should've been the Hades of our modern generation, he deserves it way more imo. He's a great father, a great lover, and he dances! DANCES! He's probably the god with the most misinformation besides maybe Hades. Ares kind of gives me the underdog affect? Yes he's this big huge god, but he loses FAR too much to be considered the "bully" like the myths advertise. And I get that it's supposed to be a message "brain over brawn" but quite frankly I could care less. Ares is treated bad by his parents, he just deserves so much more I love this guy. I love paralleling him with other gods too like Athena or Apollo or Zeus. He's just so fun to write.
APHRODITE: I feel the exact same way for her as I feel for Ares. I used to hate her SO MUCH, until I realized how misled I was. APHRODITE IS FUN. The only thing is that I'd defend her wrongs because I don't give a shit. "Aphrodite was petty" IDC!!!! I hate how authors (Rick.) write her. She's SO much more then what she's reduced too. She's SO powerful. I think the only reason she's not equal to Ares because I don't know a lot of her myths. She's serving cunt ALWAYS.
POSEIDON: Poseidon being so high is probably a disservice to society. BUT HES SO COOL AND SO POWERFUL????!!! Yes he does shitty stuff I'm not gonna pretend he doesn't, but seeing him in stories is just so entertaining. I typically like reading fanfics with him during the titanomachy or just fanfics where he's being a great uncle (so... super not accurate but it's entertaining). Ngl I giggled when he asked Apollo to fight him during the trojan war and Apollo said "nah im good". Poseidon is a BEAST in the fight with cool ass powers and a BEAST in bed (um.. when it's consentual... fuck I hate greek mythology sometimes). STORMBRINGER (i hope that's Poseidon and not Zeus???) GOD OF THE SEAS
HERMES: Hermes is kind of low, but NOT BECAUSE I DONT LOVE HIM. I tend to like gods who are a bit... violent if it wasn't obvious by the top 4? And even though I know Hermes can be violent I never see him BE violent. He just seems too perfect for me? Name one flaw he has that the other gods don't also have. HOWEVER he's so fun to read about, I don't like Percy Jackson but when I saw Hermes in the tv show I jumped out of my seat. I really like him with Apollo though, it brings a level of complexity that I LOVE.
zeus... I can explain. OKAY SO, I LOVE COMPLEX CHARACTER RIGHT AND GUESS WHO IS A VERY NUANCED GOD IN MYTHOLOGY??? ZEUS! I specifically like him from the titanomachy, because I like to think he was just... different when he was younger. Kind of like one of the typical heroes until the power he has changes him over time. I wish someone wrote a retelling because I'd love to see Zeus and Rhea or Zeus and Cronos interactions during the war. Disclaimer, I'm aware he does shitty shit but so does everyone on this list besides like Hestia and...that's it.
DIONYSUS: His low ranking is more to do with the lack of knowledge but also I'm not too interested in the domains he involves himself with. Never went to a party, never did drugs, never drunk alcohol, etc. HOWEVER I love when Dionysus is completely unhinged. God of MADNESS GUYS!!! ITS IMPORTANT! I love the myths where he's genuinely just being scary as fuck, I love how powerful but underestimated he is.
HERA: She deserves better. If I was her I'd do worse, but like... not to innocent children and women. That's all.
ATHENA: I don't find her that interesting. She just kind of reminds me of that one girl in the class who reminds the teacher they have homework. I am aware that I AM biased though, my top 4 gods consisted of 2 gods that are at odds with her. I just don't like how biased the myths were in her favor, it kind of makes her boring. If Ares or Athena lost equally I wouldn't mind her, but she wins every single time. Even when she loses, Zeus doesn't care and let's her get away with it anyway. Athena, for me, absolutely requires other gods to add complexity to her character.
DEMETER: I like her out of spite because I don't like Hades x Persephone shippers from modern retellings. In particular I don't like the Hades x Persephone shippers that hate on Demeter as if they know anything about her. She's only low because I like a lot of other gods better and I just feel like I'd never be able to write anything with her as a main character because I've never "psychoanalyzed" her like I did the other gods.
HESTIA: *shrug* I don't know her that well, and she doesn't seem to really have any myths to jump off from. The lack of myths and personality puts her low on the list. Though I do love how sweet she is.
HEPHAESTUS: ...he bores me. He doesn't offer anything to me whatsoever. I don't necessarily feel bad for him for the Aphrodite situation either, and I hate when a lot of people who like Hephaestus ignore VERY IMPORTANT details on the myths to serve their purpose. The majority of it is just plain boredom, but I hate how everyone villainized Aphrodite and Ares.
HADES: ...sigh. He's a bit of a unfair one. I'm not someone who can seperate the god from the people who like the god. A lot of Hades fans tend to just piss me off based off the most obvious misinformation in the entire world. I HATE how they try to hate on the other Olympians as if Hades is somehow better then him? He has no myths that doesn't make him better, we just don't have a lot of him. I don't find him necessarily interesting, and I desperately wish for the retellings for him to end. It's not really fair because it's less the god and more the "fans" but whatever it is what it is.

Percy Jackson & the Olympians episode 7 spoilers
If you asked me which part of the books I would cut from the series adaptation I would’ve told you definitely Procrustes. The thing is… Uncle Rick made sure that the whole scene with Procrustes wasn’t just a dumb trap on the side of the road like on the books. No, it was a confrontation between brothers about the theme that permeated the entire season, that is: how ridiculously f*ked up and dysfunctional the Olympian family is. And it’s amazing!
Having Grover lose the fourth pearl links with how he always gets the blame for himself in the first book due to his failure with Thalia. It works to remind us that he feels like he should be the most responsible person of the group, but can still make mistakes. And, seriously, it’s lot more in character for Poseidon to give them four pearls.
Somehow this adaptation makes me feel like the characters make a lot more sense than the original work they come from. Sally teaching Percy about Greek mythology from a young age sounds a lot more like Sally than just letting him grow up completely clueless about what he’ll have to face someday. Having her praying to Poseidon when she sees no other choice, and having him coming immediately to answer her, but not dare to see Percy in fear of the consequences looks a lot more like the Poseidon that loves Percy, but preferred to keep a distance for his safety. It sounds a lot more like the god that is still in love with Sally, but doesn’t want her involved in the family drama.
And can I have a round of applause for the most accurate depiction of Hades in recent history?! This man is just chilling in his house, living his best life away from the family drama, the dysfunctionality. He’s just thriving in his realm, alongside his wife (for half the year) and his dog, you know. Hades is just vibing, sipping his wine and watching his siblings fight over the most ridiculous things through TVHepheastus. And I love him for it!
This entire episode the only thing I was thinking is just how it’s all within the adaptation theme and all just makes so much sense for all the characters. Even the small chances they made for the adaptation had a positive impact that left me thinking it actually makes more sense if this character had made it this way in the source material too.

i was wondering what happened to boss design of elden ring?
and on the other note, would you like in hades 2, depiction of aphrodite as patron of cosmic/maternal love? with more body fat etc?
The semiotics of body type in character design is always such a thorny thing, because it's this constant push and pull between calling on existing meanings and associations in culture, vs pushing boundaries and trying to redefine those meanings and associations.
Aphrodite isn't really associated with maternal love I believe (classics nerds can correct me in the replies), more like erotic and romantic love, pleasure and passion. I think her design is well served by simply Being Hot™ in whatever way most readily communicates that "this character is meant to be hot" visually to the audience. It is annoying and shitty that "hot" almost always means "skinny" to a general audience, but that's those troublesome semiotics.
I cite Dionysus as a character who's a natural fit for a soft body, too. To me, it sort of doesn't comport that he of all gods has a gym jacked physique - specifically because of the amount of self-denial and struggle it takes to achieve that kind of physique. Again, not to say that Dionysus HAS to be fat because fat = hedonism (it does not), but I think it is a flaw in his visual storytelling to make him Gym Ripped because my man in a party boy who likes his drink and his food and his f... rolicking, and does not like getting up with a hangover at 6am to run 5K and do a crossfit regimen. That's more Ares' or Hermes' kind of style. Dionysus, at least in Hades, is more about softness and self-indulgence and letting loose and being cool about things, letting stuff slide and just having a good time.
Zeus or Poseidon, with their affable patriarch / unreliable uncle characters, also would make good fits for dad bods. Specifically, the bodies of dudes who used to be extremely gym fit, but who have gotten comfortable and gone a bit softer around the edges now that they no longer have to show off and prove themselves all the time. Zeus perhaps along the lines of a powerlifter, Poseidon more like a former competitive swimmer.
For Hades himself, on the other hand, I think it DOES make sense to keep him muscled up, low in body fat and jacked, because the man, as a character, is such a self-denying, self-punishing workaholic. He fills the emotional void in his heart with Fulfilment Of The Duty, which includes being the final gatekeeper of the underworld who must be ready to defend it. Like, yeah, he WOULD have a rigid, inflexible diet and exercise routine optimized to keep him in peak shape to do battle if the duty should call him to it, because he does not think he deserves to take a rest, he does not think he deserves softness or pleasure or joy. That's part of the resentment he keeps taking out on Zagreus as the game opens.
Anyway, the semiotics of body type in character design is inherently problematic from literally every angle, there is no perfect or morally pure way to do it, we live in a complex web of conflicting meanings and cultural assumptions and we all just have to do our best with it.
EDIT: Oh, and Elden Ring will be back Soon™

Wouldn't it be fun if baby Percy's first words were related to Uncle Adamas?
As if at a family dinner Hades is joking and rhetorically asking baby Percy who his favorite uncle is and then she opens her mouth and starts babbling, everyone gets tense and excited upon hearing her first word only for her to answer Hades' question shouting "Uncle Adamas, UNCLE ADAMAS!!!"
Adamas would be mortified, Poseidon would be furious, Hades would be jealous and Zeus would be laughing, poor Uncle Adamas would have to hide behind Mommy Rhae to survive Poseidon's assassination attempt, It would be even better if this situation were repeated in the first steps Poor Adamas
Injections and tests? Well, baby Percy only accepts that they are done if Uncle Adamas is with her, this makes Beelzebub's life a lot easier even if internally he is jealous
Who needs Apolo himself to sing her the best children's songs when she can be lulled to sleep by the husky voice of her uncle Adamas mumbling about a new video game?
Visit the Underworld? Well, since she's there why not take the opportunity to go to Uncle Adamas' house, if Hades denies her she'll spend the whole visit crying as if the world was going to end
Being kidnapped to watch Loki's pranks? Hmmm since he takes her to see her favorite uncle she doesn't mind
Baby Percy has already chosen her favorite person in the world, the yanderes are all shaken by this obvious favoritism, meanwhile the platonic yandere Adamas is torn between wanting to protect his niece (who already has suitors despite being just a baby) or between running away far away baby Percy is totally in love platonically with him, his niece loves him very much and this makes him the target of the fury of all the yanderes
just like the other gods he never cared much about age and consent, one of his nieces was courted when she was just a baby (persephone and hades) but now that Percy, his favorite niece, is being courted he no longer thinks the marriage prospect funny, seriously these guys can't wait a few CENTURIES!?!? right now she's just a baby, his baby (platonic yandere speaking)
all the years that Poseidon ignored Adamas came back as karma, he may not have had Poseidon's love in childhood and adulthood but he won baby Percy's love with fervor, if before he had a problem with Poseidon never looking him in the eye now he has a problem with baby Percy looking at him with a perpetual look of platonic love
Tumblr media
SHUT UP THIS IS TOO CUTEEEEEE 😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍
I LOVE PERCY AND UNCLE ADAMAS SCENARIOS SO MUCH THEY'RE SO CUTE BUT ALSO SO VERY HILARIOUS
you know those videos of kids that are running towards one parent, and they spread their arms out cuz they think their kid's running towards them only for the kid to run around them and go to someone else's arms???
YEAH THATS HOW I IMAGINE POSEIDON, BABY!PERCY AND ADAMAS 😭😭😭

HOTD greek mythology thoughts - Harwin as Hades
I love imagining Harwin as the sort of Hades of westeros. A chill dude. Lives in a haunted house where spirits come & go freely (Harrenhall). He enjoys their company even though he has limited spiritual connection to the other side.. or maybe he's just good at pretending while near the living to avoid frightening them and to avoid people gossiping about him. Harwin has no control over the dead, no one does. They are simply his silent companions whose unintelligible whispers have long become his comfort. Alys is the one who actually befriends them, plays with them, learns spells from them, unafraid to be perceived a 'witch'. Harwin tries to be show more restraint, but Lyonel still takes him away at a young age to King's Landing, hoping that if his son has more distance from that house and his older sister, he wouldn't go mad.
Still, Harwin's best friend is an 8 year old boy called Reggie Rivers who sometimes changes into a 22 year old bard singing the most melancholic yet melodious tunes. He is a lonely spirit who has been haunting the halls of Harrenhall longer than Harwin's father has been alive (in canon, I imagine Reggie waits for him to return for years and then he doesn't let the doors open when the fire starts so that Harwin would never be able to leave their house again and they could stay together in the afterlife. The lonely boy comforts his crying spirit and promises him that his sons would be returned to him in less than a decade).
Instead of Cerebrus, a three headed dog, Harwin has his three sons Jace, Luke & Joffrey. Joffrey is the first one to see a ghost despite being the youngest. It's because Joffrey Sr.'s ghost often hovered around him protectively, adopting him from the afterlife while smiling longingly at Laenor. Harwin is surprised because Dragon magic keeps the dead away pretty much.. he never expected his sons to have that side of a Strong in them despite all of them looking like him.
Rhaenyra is his reverse Persephone (more on the reverse part at the end para!) without the incest. Funny how the incest gets eradicated despite it being an hotd AND greek myth au. Though now I'm imagining how much Rhaenyra would enjoy calling Harwin 'uncle' lmfao.
Laenor is totally Poseidon because he's a Velaryon and has a good relationship with Harwin. Larys can be Zeus because shitty rapist little brothers. Alys, along with his other two sisters as Demeter, Hestia and Hera. I like the thought of Alys as another Hades.. or Demeter, since Alys's powers have a more broad spectrum.
Now imagine the Hades and Persephone kidnapping thing but reversed. Rhaenyra kidnaps Harwin, and Alys is pissed because that dragon bitch stole her little bro and decides to cause havok that brings westeros to its knees. So, ultimately Rhaenyra has to compromise so that Harwin spends half an year at the Red Keep and the other half at Harrenhall, keeping both women happy and less likely to commit murder.
PS VERY IMPORTANT! He can punch ghosts in the face! Harwin is the 'breakbones' of both the living world and beyond!
