Hey guys,, what if like in the next episode Omega gets taken away again?
Hahahaha,,,
and what if, what if–hear me out–it's a result of tension between Hunter and Crosshair and them still unable to forgive each other and their beef leads to her being recaptured??
ahahahahaha,,,
and then they double blame themselves now because had they not been little shits they would've still had their little sister with them
ahaha,, ah..aha...
also I would kill for a scene where maybe Cross is trying to explain himself or something, or maybe he's fighting with Hunter, or trying to push them away and Wrecker just,, Wrecker just goes up and hugs him,,
Just,,, no words,, fucking just walks right up and pulls him into a hug
and Crosshair just fucking breaks.
yeah,,,
god i'm not ready for tomorrow.

Ain’t no way people are having temper tantrums for a cc leaving after an event for less than half an hour to go enjoy a chill PRETTY MUCH NONCANON event somewhere else.
Bitch? Let someone have fun? Holy shit these people are unreal. Stop yapping about a creator. They aren’t going to stop streaming because you personally don’t like them. I have ccs I don’t personally vibe with and I’ve never bitched about ‘em because I’m not a toxic freak?!??
Nobody asked you to love a creator, but it would be great if you stopped spreading misinfo and baseless hatred in fan spaces.
I feel like part of “don’t send hate to a cc” should also be like “don’t be unreasonably hateful towards a cc where they could see it” because I feel like no one wants to hear your takes. Keep it to yourselves or in private groups, because what we are seeing right now is unreasonably hateful people speak out and normal people seeing it and forming opinions on creators they’ve never watched. Just kind of a shitty thing to do I think.
Just sit back, relax, and watch cubitos play.
Or seethe. I don’t care. Just don’t make it our problem :/

Okay, I can't wait to offend so many people with this chapter and I do encourage you to share this with... certain people.
So, this is mainly about Annabeth, which kind of helps my point with this.
If you didn't know, Annabeth Chase and Grover Underwood were recently cast, and Annabeth is black, and Grover is desi. Which is an amazing thing, by the way.
But, this of course comes with backlash.
Here's the thing: People fucking hate the casting for Annabeth
I, personally, think it's really odd and a double standard because when Grover was cast as Black in the movies and Southeast Asian in the musical no one gave a shit. And it's really weird because that means that you are fine with poc so long as they are in the sideline or are perfect
Which is kind of racist.
But we aren't here to speak about Grover. I mean, this is the PJO fandom when do we speak of the G-man.
We are here, however, to speak about Annabeth and your reaction to Leah.
One of the first arguments as to why she shouldn't be black is because in the books she was white.
Utter bullshit. Annabeth was just described as having blond and curly hair, that can mean a very wide variety of races. Y'all just assumed.
Annabeth being black would be a very reasonable assumption since... I mean, have you ever seen black hair? And you can dye it blond. It's not that hard, though it can be very damaging.
Also, braids exist. Like, literally Beyonce had blond box braids and wore them on her lemonade album cover, you can look it up, and every black girl I know has had them in at some point, myself included.
And it lasts a long time. It'd probably be the best option for Annabeth because it requires zero (0) maintenance and can last a month or two. You don't even need to wash it that often.
This is the most basic and utterly pointless argument I have seen when it comes to Annabeth, and one that takes no effort to put down., and doesn't often lead to people taking offense to the truth.
However my next point can and will.
Everyone says that Annabeth needs to white because of what she represents when it comes to stereotypes in women. She should be white because of feminism.
This is one of those times where I step back and think of what feminism in America is and what it represents.
To answer that question, no it's not for "all women." It's for white women. Almost all mainstream feminism is white feminism.
If you've never heard of the term, allow me to explain. White feminism is feminism with no regard for intersectionality. Most people automatically pull the race card, but that isn't always true. Intersectionality is two minorities in one person. So, white feminism is for anyone who is cishet and white.
It's important to note that not all white people who are feminists are white feminists. So long as you acknowledge that literally everyone else has it worse than you, you're good!
Now, if you don't think white feminism exists, you are most likely a white feminist.
When it comes to Annabeth, her feminism comes down to this: being underestimated and delivering a much better result than anyone else.
And, yeah, that's fucking powerful. And as women, this can happen.
However, it doesn't happen to blonds.
The whole "dumb blond" trope is something expelled into the media to promote the "not like other girls" agenda. We can see this in almost any media that has a strong female lead.
In ACOTAR, Feyre is different from her sisters because she is modest. In Shadow and Bone, Alina is different because she struggled and doesn't care about looks. Hell, Taylor Swift during her yeehaw phase was different because she wears t-shirts and is on the bleachers.
It's something constantly thrown onto women, that's rooted in the fact that women can't do anything right.
For example, if a girl wears makeup, she's an attention seeker. If a girl plays sports, she's trying to impress a guy. If a girl likes science, she's a socially dead nerd. A woman can't do anything without it being something bad.
So to have Annabeth embrace her femininity and still be this intelligent and strong person is bound to speak to everyone.
But it hits so much harder when you're a POC. Allow me to explain.
Black people in general have a lot of stereotypes. I can give you a list right now:
The drug dealer, the whore, the innocent, the sporty, the murderer, the angry black woman, etc.
The most prevalent black stereotype is that black people simply cannot be smart. At all.
And black people are always seen as less than white people, even if they don't mean it.
For example, people have asked to pet me.
Yes, you read that right. Fucking pet my hair. Not touch. Pet. Like a fucking dog.
And it can end up going so much deeper than that. Take a look at BLM! Black people are seen as disposable, and we aren't.
Do you know what it feels like to learn that the same people who claim to fight for your rights hate you? Do you know what it feels like to be tossed around a group of white women who want to pet you? Do you know what it feels like to never be seen as smart? To never be seen as kind? Do you know what it's like to see a black woman in media and only see the angry black woman? To only be seen as either perfect or just a flaw?
No. You don't. And you never will, because you will always have the privilege.
I am always underestimated, no matter what I'm doing.
So you will never understand the joy little brown girls will feel when they see someone just like them. A girl who has melanin and is dragged through the fucking mud for it, but still goes on. She goes on and becomes better than them. Better than the lady who asked to pet her hair. Better than the man who said black women can only be angry. A girl who triumphed and is allowed to breathe. She's amazing but she's allowed to be too prideful and too impulsive and she is allowed to grow.
When I was little I would've cried. Hell, I cried today.
Every single movie and book and show is catered to you and to your ideas of feminism. So you can fucking spare me with your "blond rep" bullshit.
