I get the criticism of the Hunters of Artemis from a narrative perspective—it sucks that it essentially boots interesting female characters out of the story—but it always baffles me when people viciously hate Artemis for *checks notes* doing damage control.

Like. Thalia explicitly goes with Artemis to avoid the prophecy, and I definitely think that’s the reason Artemis tried so hard to get her to join—hell, you can view the hunters trying to recruit Annabeth as a way to get Thalia to join. And Bianca? You can’t convince me that Artemis didn’t guess there was something up there and react accordingly.

If Percy or Nico were even a little bit girl-adjacent you bet your ass she would be all over them to join. No one actually wants to risk the Great Prophecy happening, and Artemis is doing a hell of a lot more to stop it than anyone else.

#riordanverse #pjo #percy jackson #Artemis pjo #hunters of artemis #crack fic idea: Poseidon and Zeus have broken the oath several times before Thalia Jason and Percy. Artemis has just been hauling ass across #the country each time it happens. they have been so fucking lucky that their kids have been girl or girl-adjacent so far.#Artemis gets her info from Apollo (who gets pinged whenever a new potential prophecy child is born)#the hunters weren’t at westover to hunt thorn or even recruit Thalia. they were ACTUALLY there because Artemis got a text from her brother #like ‘lol the di angelo kids are out of the lotus hotel’#and Artemis is like gods FUCKING damnit hades I thought we had an understanding #OTHER fic idea: Bianca joins the hunters in the 30s and Nico goes to the casino alone #OTHER OTHER fic idea: Artemis can tell people’s gender sometimes before they can and now she has to crack trans Percy’s egg before she turns #sixteen so she’ll agree to join the hunters and put the prophecy off once again.#anyway. this has been my defense of Artemis.#eli rambles #eli writes

I hope you have the courage to...

"I hope you have the courage to keep loving deeply in a world that sometimes fails to do so. In a generation that orders up attention like they order up a meal, in a generation that has started to love with one foot out the door, I hope you have the courage to believe that genuine connection still exists. And I hope you have the courage to stand up for that, to open yourself to it when you start to feel it bloom within the heart of you. I hope you have the courage to appreciate it for all that it is, to not approach it wearing a mask, to not try to desensitize yourself to it or to play it cool. Please, I hope you have the courage to crash your heart into the people life gifts you. I hope you have the courage to believe that goodness still exists, that there are those who have the capacity to love the way you do, and that there are those who will see you, will grow you, and teach you more about the world. I hope you have the courage to fight for connection. I hope you have the courage to go deeper. To never exist on the surface of your life, even if it’s easier or more convenient. At the end of the day, you should leave this world with a heart that is worn-out and soft all over. A heart that is bruised from loving, and feeling, and caring in the best way possible. At the end of the day, you should be proud of your inability to be anything but open to the world. You should be proud of who you are.

I hope you have the courage to do the hard work. I hope you have the courage to sit down with your demons, to befriend them; to look them in the face and to not feel fear. I hope you have the courage to stop picking or numbing or avoiding the wounds within, and I hope you choose to heal them instead. I hope you have the courage to understand yourself, fundamentally—to open up the deepest, darkest parts of your mind, to unhinge your rib cage revealing the gritty parts of your soul, the parts no one else claps for, and I hope you have the courage to clean them out. To forgive yourself for what you had to do to kill your sadness. To forgive yourself for the ways in which you didn’t fight for the person you were becoming. I hope you have the courage to nurture your pain, to not disregard it or sweep it under the rug of distraction or convenience. I hope you have the courage to heal yourself, even when it hurts.

I hope you have the courage to know when to end things. And I hope you have the courage to see endings as beautiful, transformative stepping stones. I hope you have the courage to let love and opportunity move through you like rain. To not grip, or seek to change it, to not ask people or circumstances to be more than they can be for you. I hope you have the courage to see endings as the cornerstones of the chapters that changed you without needing them to be a part of the rest of your story. And when that is done, I hope you have the courage to give yourself closure. To be your own home. To be your own safe place. I hope you have the courage to not let the losses destroy you, to not let them burrow into the heart of who you are and convince you that you failed, or that you are unworthy of the happiness you are standing up for in your life. I hope you have the courage to see the way in which you loved and tried and fought for something as a testament to just how deeply your capacity to feel is, just how beautiful moments can be when you appreciate them for what they were instead of nullifying them or letting them harden you to the world. Please, I hope you have the courage to move forward. I hope you have the courage to walk away with grace.

I hope you have the courage to do things differently, to be the kind of person who takes the risk, to be the kind of person who leads with their heart and shows up in their life with a ruthless dedication to learning and growing and enjoying the hell out of their moments here. I hope you have the courage to never let comfort or apprehension convince you that you are better off staying still. I hope you have the courage to trust the part of yourself that knows there’s more out there for you, the part of yourself that is easy to quiet when you’re trying to live by the rules and the expectations of a world that has bred so much dissatisfaction and sadness. I hope you have the courage to trust the part of yourself that seeks freedom from those trends, from those boundaries, and I hope you have the courage to go after whatever it is that genuinely makes you want to get up in the morning. I hope you have the courage to find the things in life that ignite you and deepen your understanding of the world and those within it. I hope you have the courage to fight for a future that inspires you, even if it doesn’t look the way you thought it would. I hope you have the courage to change. I hope you have the courage to trust in the person you’re becoming."

I will never be over bianca di angelo I fear. I read titans curse when I was like 10 years old and it has stuck with me ever since. she loved her brother more than anything and yet he is all she ever knew. she just wanted to know more. she was 12 and she could tell you everything that he loved but she couldn’t tell you anything that she did because she didn’t know. and what do you do when your sibling is gone? what if you can’t be there to know what he loves anymore?

#time for my monthly di angelo breakdown don’t mind me #truly nothing hits me harder than these two #I understand bianca so deeply I read her when I was 12 and I think about her now at 20 with my brother off at college #bianca di angelo #nico di angelo

In your bonus section, you said that sae did consider dating bianca 😱 Out of curiousity, what does he like about her or made him consider that? (Not that I think negatively about her (yet); I trust you’ll make her a great/interesting character to the story!! I just don’t know how to phrase it right) But is it her personality? Beauty? Or did his interest just seem to happen organically? Or was it just all of it lool

so that was asked to him when they’d gotten to know each other for like, a year? by then they’d already gotten pretty close (subjectively, because it’s considered close for sae but if you spin it around and compare it to yn and eita for example it’s nothing like that). there’s a few things he was thinking of.

yeah, he found her pretty, for sure! and their first meeting… well, he already saw her bare chest so 😭 100% he finds her attractive, physically. their friendship happened because bianca was persistent—unlike how it is currently with yn (arguably, not just friendship, it seems), the sae that bianca was trying to get to know was a little less receptive; in the sense that she would have to be the one to try. if she didn’t, they would’ve drifted by now. it’s because of that that sae saw that she’s making an effort and he should too. she’s tried multiple times to hang out and get to know him that he feels bad if he doesn’t reciprocate. so he did, and now here they are. as you guys can probably guess, she leads a lot of the planning in their friendship. this is something common with sae; the guys have to be the one to invite him, or else he’d be just fine all by himself sitting in his room and doing whatever he wants alone.

so when they asked him about dating bianca, he’d honestly never thought of it. he’s oblivious to any potential romance between them (as we all know), but he thought exactly this: it wouldn’t be the worst thing in the world. since sae is the way he is, that’s saying a lot for his case. he thinks she’s fun to be around, and from what he sees, she’s not a diva which is a blessing—but there is something he doesn’t really like about her. there’s this one quality he has an issue with, which is not okay to him especially because it’s done behind his back. (i’ll expand on this in the future chapters dw !!) it’s part of what irritated the guys too. sae tried to make it so she would feel comfortable not doing it, but he could never shake it off a hundred percent. aside from that, there’s technically nothing he finds wrong with her. but sometimes, especially with sae how he is in priceless, the organic feeling that comes naturally is what’s important to him.

#me organising my thoughts again haha #bianca is special in the sense she was the first he reciprocated to #but sae for the sake of him can’t understand the difference between his efforts yet hahaha :’(#mail : anon !

PERCY DOES NOT DESERVE TO BE BLAMED FOR BIANCAS DEATH! HE WAS FOURTEEN AND SHE SACRIFICED HERSELF THERE WAS NOTHING HE COULD HAVE DONE!!!!

#i dont understand percy haters #this boy did nothing wrong #he already had the weight of the world on his shoulders and now a ten year olds sisters life #he deserved so much better #now i love nico #but still percy does not deserve the hate he gets for biancas death #bianca took something when she wasn't supposed to #i am not trying to blame what happened on her #she was a 12 year old girl who wanted to fet something for her brother who was mad at her #i dont think anyone deserves to be blamed for that #thank you for coming to my ted talk #percy jackon and the olympians #percy jackson #bianca di angelo #nico di angelo #percy jackson and the titans curse

rr wrote bianca into the series and killed her off solely for nico’s characterisation/as a way to progress the plot without making her part of the plot -- and that makes her the most intriguing character in the whole series for me.

she was a 12 yo solely responsible for her younger brother for 70 years!! her character motive was to be free of that responsibility. to only have to worry about herself for once in her life, to finally have a support system backing her. yet even after she’s joined the hunters and percy is on a quest with her seeing her act for herself, the narrative always notes her thru reference to nico.

we see that despite being notably drained by him, she deeply cares for nico and only feels comfortable leaving him bcos she fully believes percy and the rest of chb are capable of taking over her role as caretaker. with the hunters we see her grow more confident, taking off her hat - yet her tying her hair in the same braid as zöe and some other ways she shown to fall into the line with the hunters, actually suggest that whilst she’s found a place with them, she’s trying to belong sm she’s pushing down her personal identity. i would’ve loved to see how she came into herself throughout the series.

after she dies (doing something for nico), except from the initial search, her death is always framed as ‘oh no poor nico losing his sister’ instead of focusing on how horrific it is that a 12 yo died on her first quest after spending a week at most at chb. it should have been a radicalising event for percy yet instead it’s just a source of guilt at not fulfilling his promise to nico.

nico spending months in the labyrinth trying to bring her back, and years later making another attempt when the doors of death open, are written in solely as a way to forward the plot but that extent of love for his sister that’s always driving nico is by far the part of his character that makes him most endearing to me. and when he finally makes contact with her ghost and she’s like ‘even in death you won’t let me rest’. PLSS.

hades negatively weighing nico against bianca and saying he’s the one that should’ve died instead, is totally just meant to be a way of milking nico’s sadness BUT LIKE keep talking hades i really want to know more. hades went against the rule that says gods should stay uninvolved in their demigod children’s lives and had a direct presence in bianca and nico’s upbringing but ur just not going to expand on what his relationship with bianca was like?? what he means be telling nico this?? the aspects of her personality and the memories he has of her that are weighing on him so heavily?? any indication of who she was as his daughter???

also the hints that she knew who her godly parent was??? EXPAND ON THAT. did she come into some of her power?? did she remember some of her past despite being bathed in the river lethe?? (why wouldn’t children of hades have some power over the river???)

i genuinely want to know her. the sole reason i’m excited for the upcoming nico book is to learn more about her, i’m not even exaggerating.

#sorry to be anti gay but give me a book about her and her reincarnations rather than a forced relationship idgaf about..#yeah percy’s fatal flaw colours his narrative but there’s no excuse for the readers to hate on her #if ur not the eldest sister back off u wouldn’t understand #let girls be selfish #i hateeeeee how her death is kinda framed as penance #tho the fact nico refuses to see it as such is very satisfying #something so interesting about a daughter of hades who doesn’t want to linger after death #and quickly deciding she wants to be reincarnated #percy jackson #pjo #bianca di angelo #bianca hazel and nico are my big three #this has been in my drafts for DONKEYS omg #icr why i didn’t post ??#probs have more to add to this

btw just because I don’t like pjo doesn’t mean people who do can’t hang out here

I might complain about it but I have nothing against people who like it

#I understand why people like it #it just doesn’t appeal to me because of the inaccuracies #I like the premise though which is why I came up with camp Ichor #certain characters immediately put me off #and I tend to keep my opinions unless it’s fixed later #the first introduction to Bianca being her abandoning her young brother with strangers was not.#that great to me #she probably gets better later

just saying, the only people who can complain about Bianca DiAngelo's actions are younger siblings
