Listen when people say they want Percy to go on a villain arc most times I see it as they want him to go dark, want him to start murdering, maiming, going full Luke, etc. And I support that. If anyone deserves to kill people it's this kid.

However, let us be realistic for a moment, because I quite like the other alternative. Villain arc Percy usually entails "he's finally had enough of the Gods bullshit & will do things his own way". Let us think on this. What would Percy most likely do in this situation? Would it really be murder right off the bat?

I think he'd be the pettiest, annoying little shit there is. And because one can't usually threaten the Gods in a way that truly matters, but they can make them sweat really hard.

This goes beyond ignoring their calls and leaving them on read. He refuses to give food offerings unless it's the nastiest shit known to man. Bribes the cyclops into hucking huge objects up Mount Olympus before they all scurry off. Finds the olive tree Athena gave to Athens, and while he wouldn't have the heart to destroy it, he'd for sure rip off a branch & mail it to her (Annabeth nearly had to put them in witness protection).

Eventually it gets to the point he has Nico on speed-dial and offers him a shit ton of fast food & a 'get out of Percy's quest bullshit free' pass if he could hop into the Underworld and yoink up some annoying spirits or dead monsters to piss off the Gods. When the Gods get pissed at him Percy just silently pulls out some safe-for-demigods phone like "hang on I wanna see how many happy meals I owe Nico for bringing Typhon back up". They know he is not bluffing.

Could the Gods counteract him? Yeah, sure, Hera gave him amnesia and it was like 90% effective for a while. However, he kind of went off the rails, everyone else went off the rails, and then they had even more Roman nonsense to deal with. If anything it both solved but also made even more problems. And a much angrier Percy. So, frankly, they're very confident it could work, but they're a little worried about what the aftermath would be.

Ares suggests just killing him. Poseidon takes offense to this. Artemis scoffs and says even Ares couldn't beat him. Everyone stops for a moment. The question is not asked verbally. But it is seen in the darting eyes and shifting seats.

Can they kill Percy Jackson?

Well, sure, they must be able to. He's a powerful kid, no doubt, with powerful allies, but they are Gods. Of course they can kill him. So that's not the real question, they wouldn't dare really entertain such a thing to ever confirm if it was true, but this is rather the layer of frosting hiding the real atrocity of a cake underneath it.

What will they lose trying to kill Percy Jackson?

What will remain standing in the face of some 18-year-old who lived one of the hardest knocks of life, loves so much it makes them sick, is so completely unaware of his own strength not even they know its full extent, and currently has absolutely zero fucks to give about the end of a reign longer than he will ever understand?

They decide to quietly shut the lid on that whole fiasco and let Percy do whatever he wants.

Unfortunately, they can't exactly ignore everyone else. And everyone else is who Percy cares about the most. So, think of it more like leaving a grenade in a locked box in the attic. Just hope and pray you've moved out before something gets curious and starts rummaging around up there.

#percy jackson #pjo #percy jackson and the olympians #rick riordan #dark percy jackson #ideas #talk #text post #greek gods #annabeth chase #nico di angelo #typhon #pjo headcanon #to be entirely clear percy is still someone who did just like manipulate bob into murder #and poisoned Akhlys thru her tears fully intending to kill #among other things. hes still that person. however hes also the guy who helps leo make some weird machine #and they try to test its flight by riding it off a cliff over the lake w bamboleo by gipsy kings blasting #hes still totally that guy (under stress but i say that not as an excuse just as an 'he doesnt do it on a whim. but he still Can')#but hes also like. stupid. & u gotta get him at the right Vibe before he starts to get like Really concerningly murderous about things #usually hes the regular amount of murderous like most halfbloods are bc they deal w too much on a regular basis #i think that a percy turning 'dark' would b him looking the gods in the eye & saying 'no lol. also u suck. L + ratio.'#& then when they try to fight him on it only THEN does he while still holding eye contact begin to make the ocean levels rise #specifically targeting important places to those gods & havin his ocean buddies destroy the place #u wanna dance god boys? he will spare humanity on some rock but he Will destroy everything else #he is one-shotting monsters bc hes not dealing w this. some bs happens & he just grabs some monster by the throat & makes them spill #if that doesnt work he just walks into olympus w pandoras box 2.0 & starts to open it until the gods will talk to him. they start talkin #bs again. he slowly opens it again. they talk. he shuts it. they spew more bs. he opens it a little faster. they give in #dark percy to me is someone who doesnt DEFAULT to violence but who realized 'oh i can just do whatever i want' & found that gods react #best when its violent. he only does this w gods & monsters bc he chooses fastest route to get what he wants. but he recognizes violence Bad #so he just looks for the most receptive response. & then he abuses it relentlessly. but he also hates the gods. come stop him btch u wont

Ferryman of the Silverlake / The Mountain King

Not much is known about this god-like being, not even its true name. It appears to be some sort of king, prince, mountain spirit or maybe a long forgotten god.

Appearance

He takes the form of a young man or child, yet his mature behaviour and serious facial expression create the impression that he has lived through numerous human lifetimes. One of the most remarkable visual characteristics is his hair, which shimmers in a shade of green, a colour which is entirely unnatural for both humans and animals. Complementing this extraordinary hair color, he wears a tiara crafted from silver adorned with an array of gemstones. He also wears a mantle decorated with emeralds and a belt made from corals. In his hands, he wields a luminous staff, scepter, or spear crafted from a single, large gemstone.

He is accompanied by a small boat with its keel made out of the red hues from a sunrise and its sails are blue like the heavens themselves. The boat features a golden mast and golden oars. Inside, the boat is lined with silver moss.

Behaviour

When the Mountain King makes his presence known, it begins with a violet light that gradually intensifies and transforms into a calming blue, eventually filling his entire cave or realm.

He travels by boat across an immense underground silver lake, where the most beautiful rainbow stretches from one side of the lake to the other. Additionally, small blue flames hover above the lake and a captivating and melodious tune can be heard. The gigantic cave is full of precious stones and its roof is like a starlit night sky.

It appears that the Mountain King is cautious of humans and endeavors to discern the genuine intentions of those who find themselves in his domain. However, he also seems eager to ensure that any worthy humans who enter his realm depart with a precious gift from him.

Environment

The cave in which the ferryman appears is difficult to reach. Inside the cave is a gigantic lake behind which an enormous gap appears. Behind the gap is a treasure hidden, which is guarded by two goats.

Origin

This figure originates from a tale in Styria, situated near the city of Weiz, but not much is known about its mythological background. In folklore, this being is regarded as a mountain spirit. However, it stands out as such spirits are typically depicted as gnome or dwarf-like creatures that either aid or disrupt miners.

The description of the Mountain King incorporates several motifs. The presence of the rainbow is reminiscent of Irish Mythology, where it signifies a treasure concealed at its end. In Norse and Greek Mythologie, rainbows symbolize a connection between Earth and the Realm of the Gods.

The concept of a silver lake or a vast underground lake is a recurring theme in Alpine tales, as seen in the Ladin Fanes Saga. In these stories, such lakes often hold magical items like arrows that never miss, or they feature mythical beings guiding humans to a treasure hidden beyond the lake. In some tales, the lake and the cave vanish once the human departs, adding an element of enchantment and mystery to these narratives.

The association of water with the dead in Alpine tales, along with a possible interpretation of the hovering flames as souls, adds depth to the symbolism surrounding the Mountain King. In this context, he can be seen as a figure similar to Charon from Greek Mythology, who serves as a ferryman transporting souls to the realm of the dead.

Due to a lack of sources, the truth about this being will remain a mystery, leaving its nature and origins open to interpretation and imagination.

Kingdom Hearts Lore is So Funny a.k.a. Uh-Oh Sisters I Looked At the Kingdom Hearts Tag For A Milisecond and Caught the Brain Rot Again

Imagine many hundreds of thousands of years ago you wake up bright and early in your undersea kingdom. It is another sunshiny day for you, King Triton, ruler of the vast oceans of the Land of Fairytales. You gain word as you sit down for breakfast that there’s a civil war breaking out somewhere on the overlands.

Ah, yes, those silly mortals on that one island with the giant key-things and the tower. Whatever they’re quarreling over, you’re sure it has nothing to do with your territories. You resume your kingly duties. It’s a fine, effective day- Kelp productivity rates are up. Seashell imports are happening as scheduled...

A shadow sets in over the castle, and you frown and look up. Odd?... The sun doesn’t set for another three hours, and there’s no eclipse scheduled. It becomes obvious that this is not some regular lunar eclipse when a GIANT HEART-SHAPED MOON appears way above the waves in a blood-red sky. This is about when the shaking starts.

By the end of this crisis, your vast kingdom of oceans will have been cut down to the size of a Super Mario Galaxy planet, and about 1/20th of the country of Denmark. Beyond that is the vast empty darkness of space. What in the absolute fucking Poseidon just happened?

#and then tens of thousands of years later a fourteen year old kid shows up with one of those keys #and you unceremoniously tell them to fuck off #you are now the proud ruler of a FUCKING LAKE #of course youre afraid youll lose your daughter you lost like EVERYTHING ELSE #oh my god did the other gods make it out ok you cant even find a way to reach hera or zeus!#Kingdom Hearts #Kingdom Hearts Union Cross #Kingdom Hearts Unchained #Kingdom Hearts lore #Kingdom Hearts story #i do love that this implies Britain got split up like 5 different ways #But does Wonderland have 1/5th of England on it?#Did Alice just teleport there? Can you imagine Alice somehow using the Lanes Between or whatever #freaking ASTRONAUT ALICE LIDDELL #Star Trek's United Federation of Planets but it's filled with people like the Red Queen and Halloweentown's Mayor #Donald Duck: Sora you cant break the Prime Directive!#The Little Mermaid #King Triton #while im here im psyched for halle bailey ariel thar be big mad racists out there #but its a disney live action remake so the hope only swims so far #hey remember when monstro survived his entire world going to sleep and became a space whale #Kingdom Hearts I #kingdom hearts sora #kingdom hearts spoilers #kingdom hearts dark road #KH: DR #kingdom hearts union x #Lost Masters #The Foretellers #more like the Loretellers

everyone remembers the glory and the spectacle in the story no one remembers the love that was its foundation and shadow and heart no remembers that the love was there but even then its still important that it was. stories and statues might last forever in the minds of men but what truly matters, the only thing that can grant us any kind of peace, is loving and being loved in turn.

#and at the end of the finale merlin doesn't have faith in the prophecy because it's just a story. he doesn't care about that anymore.#he goes to the lake because he loves arthur and nothing more. to ME.#god remember j*lian m*rphy being like the man he loves is dying so he's holding him. not a king or a hero but the man he loves...#killing myself fr #merlinposting

“it’s just lazy writing because it’s a bad adaptation” no. to YOU maybe. to ME they were so in love in their previous lives that in reincarnation their atoms intermingled and now they share pieces of the other’s soul. so like shut up… some of us think the implication that king arthur was queer is genius sorry that you’re not on this level smh

#also i saw that in the book she was supposed to be the lady of the lake? why would the lady and king arthur be in love.#they are like siblings to me. like cordelia and alastair. oh my god why the fuck did i just say that hold on post cancelled #beth.txt

there's just something so delicious about friends-to enemies-to lovers

barely teenage steve and eddie who have a devastating end to what they both thought would be a forever friendship. maybe it's a misunderstanding or maybe it's just teenage angst that felt impossible to fix in the moment.

but i am feral over the idea that the only reason steve ever became 'king steve' strutting around with tommy and carol with his aloof, semi-mean girl attitude was because of the falling out with eddie. that he did it so he didn't feel so much hurt over it. still has no idea what he did to make eddie suddenly hate him.

same with eddie. he definitely liked metal and nerdy shit all along, but maybe he only leaned into the whole 'forced conformity, it's what's killing the kids' freak persona to guard himself. as armor. because he fucking misses steve as much as he hates him. so he glares and makes snarky comments. finds his solace in DnD and his band.

they fight with words and shoulder shoves in the hallway. each of them too proud to ever talk it out and fix things. to the point that their peers don't remember that steve and eddie used to be inseparable. everyone but steve and eddie forget the obvious affection and closeness they once shared.

it takes a bunch of freshmen to put them back into each other's orbit.

it takes the upside down, a dead cheerleader and an evil wizard for them to actually get along again.

because steve is meant to hate eddie but the moment he sees the trailer and hears the word 'murder' he feels like he might throw up.

Please, god, not eddie.

only to find out he supposedly murdered chrissy cunningham. despite all the animosity between the two of them, steve knows in his soul that eddie would never kill anyone.

even when he's against a wall with sharp glass pressed to his neck, heart racing as he looks into the eyes he tries not to think about, steve knows that eddie won't actually hurt him.

steve has the urge to stay with eddie at the lake house and make sure nothing else happens to him. instead, he stops forcing himself to be an asshole towards eddie. it's exhausting and he's never truly meant it anyways. the upside-down shit is threatening the one person he hoped would never be a part of it.

it takes eddie watching steve get pulled under lover's lake and attacked by demon bats to realize that the biggest misunderstanding was of his own thirteen year old self's feelings. that he could've lost steve and he'd have never even told him the truth of why he let their friendship implode over such a ridiculous misunderstanding.

that he wanted more than friendship and that scared the hell out of him at thirteen.

he sees steve bleeding and throwing himself into danger over and over. realizes that yeah, steve harrington is a good guy. his own personal munson doctrine is fundamentally flawed and untrustworthy and he's in love with this stupidly brave man, maybe since forever.

make him pay means i'm sorry, i love you, please be safe, come back.

it takes eddie nearly dying and his steve carrying him out of hell for eddie to realize that steve never hated him either. that what eddie always views as aloofness and superiority was hurt and steve trying to deal. regardless of whatever lays in the past, steve holds him together with his hands and begs eddie to stay. whispers that he loves him, always has loved him, always will love him.

eddie thinks about all the years they lost due to teenage angst and fear. fights to keep his eyes open and stay, because steve his sobbing and begging him not to go.

and when eddie finally wakes up in the hospital, it's steve and uncle wayne next to him. steve won't leave his side, maybe ever again. neither of them with any desire to ever look at each other with anything but love.

#steddie #friends to enemies to lovers #friends to enemies #enemies to lovers #feeling mildly angsty but still a sucker for a HEA #angst
