genuinely stunned at the fantastic choice for Percy not to pray to his absent and unknown father—like he did in the books—but to his mother.
the show is really taking us to one of riordan’s central theses straight off the bat.
parenthood isn’t about power and legacy and the recognition of shared blood.
It’s about the incredible act of showing up for your child—again and again and a-fucking-gain. That’s how you inspire respect. That’s how you become a child’s patron and beloved god.

love that fabian and riz were originally designed to be the quintessential preppy jock and outcast nerd stereotypes, but with each new season riz is more of a cool guy while fabian becomes increasingly lamer <3

fabian’s insistence on calling someone to tell them about lucy & yolanda because he thought people just deserved to know, out of respect. both deeply sweet & incredibly gutting. (bill seacaster move over that’s MY darling boy)

before I played Disco Elysium, I thought Harry du Bois was a co-worker in the precinct you work at and, reading about him being such a fucked up guy, I was literally planning on avoiding him as much as possible in my playthrough... colour me surprised when I found the badge and found out the main character's name

So during the epilogue, if you romanced Gale, talk with him while he’s near Tara, and choose this during your discussion:
“You know me. I prefer you with your clothes off.”
He’ll immediately get flustered and say:
“Ahem. Not in front of Tara, please.”
…which I love. But what I DIDN’T realize (until I started playing around with the epilogue conversations) is that if you wait until he’s walking around the party and away from Tara, and then do your conversation, that same dialogue:
“You know me. I prefer you with your clothes off.”
Will get THIS response instead:
“I’m not entirely certain that would fall under the definition of ‘smart casual’, but I’ll be sure to indulge you when we get home…”
…
Tav, two minutes later: (slaps hands on thighs, stands up, stretches) Welp, it’s been a great party, but it’s time for us to go
Withers: Thou just arrived—
Tav: TIME FOR US TO GO

no because i’ve read this story so many times and there’s really something to be said about the way i believe luke so much in episode 2. he says a lot of offhanded little gripes about the gods and it feels almost common place and i understand his anger, i’d be angry too and i know how his story ends but oh my god would i side with him because it feels to easy to be mad
