[m4gp13]

Al, explaining why Hecate, a maiden goddess, has demigod kids: Yeah so me and my siblings are actually formed from rocks, think the whole 'man being formed from clay' thing, and my mother brought us to life with magic. It's actually where I get my name from.

Ethan: Oh, that's interesting :)

Ethan, in his head: If someone licked him right now would it taste like a stalagmite? Would I chip a tooth if I bit him? Does he have organs?

actually very happy that chris rodriguez character is being fleshed out more in the show, instead of just being randomly dropped into the story in sea of monsters. that we get to see him and luke interact, we get the feeling of how close they are, we get an insight into his personality, humor & wit.

Pushing my Chris Rodriguez has a fascination with monsters agenda (not like the thing between Luke and Kelli tho) and yes this is all based on that one line of his in Sea of Monsters.

Chris Rodriguez who adores animals, who has a fascination with monsters. Who kept trying to befriend the sentient ones. Who has a scrapbook he filled with all the things he learnt about them. Who knows the best way to end conflicts with them without getting eating or fighting, knows the regular wingspan Stymphalian birds, food preferences of empousai, the exact PH of various dragons acids and how their reactions. Who regularly went into Princess Andromeda's cargo hold to sketch the monsters and spent hours there. Who gifts spare scales, feathers and tusks he finds to Ethan and Alabaster.

Alabaster doodling runes on his scrapbook. Ethan adding in information about poisons. Chris keeping the photos of his friends in the same book. Even after Ethan dies. Even after for all he knows Alabaster hates him. Because he may have left the Titan army. Doesn’t mean his memories did too.

#he has that book always on his nightstand ok #he took it with him to the labyrinth #he misses his friends #he adores Mrs. O’Leary too #in mortal aus he would be a veterinarian probably #pjo #chris rodriguez #alabaster torrington #ethan nakamura #yes they are friends #(nm that ethan joined the ta after chris left) #pjo headcanon #the titan army #titan army

Topics I’d like to see as short stories (pjo-edition):

(just a reminder these are my thoughts)

Thalia’s time at Camp Half-Blood (so between Sea of Monsters and Titan’s Curse) (probably Thalia’s pov)

The Hunters of Artemis (post-ToA) (anyone’s pov, though it’d most likely be Thalia’s)

A random story at camp starring the side/minor/background characters (either during HoO or Post-ToA) (kinda like Camp Half-Blood Confidental)

The Winter Solstice Meeting/The day the campers were allowed to go onto Olympus (pre-TLT)

More Thalia and Luke adventures (before meeting Annabeth) (anyone’s POV)

Backstory of Thalia and Jason (anyone’s POV, most likely Thalia’s)

Stuff that happened on the Princess Andromeda/The Titan Army things (post-TLT, pre-TLO) (Anyone’s POV, though it’d mostly be Luke’s)

Thalia, Luke and Annabeth adventures (before Thalia turned into a tree) (Anyone’s POV)

Thalia, Luke, Annabeth and Grover going to Camp-Half Blood (anyone’s POV)

yes, most of these include Thalia, but we need more details. context. we need to be fed more.

One of my biggest fandom pet peeves is how five books of world building explicitly written to tell us that the Gods aren’t necessarily good and Luke & the Titan Army aren’t necessarily evil only for this to be thrown away in the last chapters of TLO when Rick seemingly realized his villain was far too convincing. What’s almost even more frustrating is how such a large portion of the fandom seems to buy into this with no question.

For five books straight we hear about how terribly the Olympians & Co treat demigods, they’re deliberately shown as blood-thirsty, harsh and uncaring. Zeus murdering Maria di Angelo, Hades killing Thalia, both Zeus and Hades attempting/threatening to kill Percy, Hera being willing to let Nico die in the hands of Geryon, the list goes on and on. It’s endless bloodshed where children are the currency. The Gods may be the lesser of two evils, but that’s just the interesting part; that there isn’t an inherently moral choice, there isn’t good or evil, just winners and losers. 

I want to talk about one of my favorite parts of the Percy Jackson & TO - series, which is the chapter in BOTL when Percy’s stuck on Ogygia with Calypso. Specifically, the conversion in which they’re discussing Calypso’s imprisonment;

This is the first time in the series that Percy recognizes that he’s chosen the Olympians' side of the war because they’re his family, because of his loyalty, and not because he necessarily believes in their values or their cause, not because they’re good. Percy himself does realize this and wishes for the Gods to better themselves, which is symbolized specifically when he asks the gods to set Calypso free. Despite this, we soon see in the following series that the Gods are once again beginning to forget their promises, and neglect to fulfill them. But still, the demigods who turn against them are constantly villainized. I just find that the plot would be so elevated if the morally gray themes from the OG series were allowed back into the plot, albeit in new forms. I really think they were such a big part of what made PJO so enthralling compared to so many of its contemporary series.

Thinking about Luke's thread being cut before Percy even got to camp, thinking about Al's siblings being dead already by his first on-page appearance, thinking about Ethan having made the trade that sealed his fate before we even met him, thinking about The Oresteia "This was always going to happen. She's been dead since the beginning." thinking about John Darnielle "Their fate has already staked its claim on them from the moment they appear on-screen." thinking about Matthew Stover "This story happened a long time ago in a galaxy far, far away. It is already over. Nothing can be done to change it."

Thinking about Richard Siken "You're going to die in your best friend's arms. And you play along because it's funny, because it's written down, you've memorised it, it's all you know. I say the phrases that keep it all going, and everybody plays along."

Thinking about how fate is a tangible and unavoidable thing in the pjo world and every single time, it stakes its claim no matter what the characters do to avoid it. The three Fates know when your string will be cut and have full control over it. The oracle always knows who will die, where and when, while the people in question can only cross their fingers and hope the prophecy isn't referring to them. Because if it is, then it is.

[olympus-bitch]

imagine what a blow it must be to your confidence to finally meet your dad for the first time only to find out that to him, spending time in close proximity to his children is considered a divine punishment 💀💀

[phoenix--flying]

do you ever sit and think about how the survivors of the core titan army members represent the two major factors for the start of the titan war?

Chris Rodriguez was an unclaimed demigod stuck in the Hermes cabin, wondering who his father was, wondering if he'll ever get claimed. He was tossed aside and forgotten.

Alabaster Torrington was the son of a minor goddess, he didn't have a cabin, he didn't have respect. His mother was ignored, cast aside and he couldn't be claimed, he was stuck in the Hermes cabin just like the unclaimed kids.

Unclaimed demigods and children of the minor gods are the two biggest reasons that the titan war happened, maybe I'm overthinking this but it's really interesting to me that these two were the only survivors of the canon titan army members. It's also interesting to me that they're both traitors yet they had a different outcome, a different judgment.

#chris rodriguez #alabaster torrington #my loves #i feel like this is some of #symbolism or something idk man #it's probably just a coincidence #considering alabaster is very questionably canon #and not even made by rick #but its interesting to think about #titan army #pjo #the titan army

[everythingwasalreadypicked]

I got a very disturbing Pjo idea after watching TBOSAS trailer and since nudging the people in the Ta server wasn't enough for me, I'm putting it out here.

(Very excited for that movie btw)

TW: Dehumanisation, murder, child death, general things you would see in THG

Okay so you know how THG was inspired by the Thesus and the Labyrinth myth?

And you know how the Games were started to punish the Districts for rebelling?

And, and what army was technically a rebellion? That’s right. The Titan army demigods.

So, what if instead of massacring the Ta kids; the gods put them thorough similar games. I mean Hephaestus TV is a thing, they canonically watch demigods as entertainment. Wouldn't be the first time they made them fight for entertainment either. Remember Bachus?

"After all, if they're so willing to raise up arms against their fellow demigodkind killing their friends and fellow comrades shouldn't be that hard, right?" — Zeus (and Kai thanks for the dialogue)

So those who didn’t immediately joined back the camps gets rounded up and imprisoned somewhere before they got thrown into the arena to fight monsters and eachother to death.

All the while the gods are watching their new family entertainment. Hey, it's free :D

Apollo takes it upon himself to do the interviews (like Ceasar) which half of it has to get censored before it reaches Zeus.

"Hecate, your son fucking bit me!"

"Good." — she's not happy about the situation at all.

Of course, they would group the kids and do more than one run: Prolongs their fun and the traitors's suffering.

Not that all of the kids are sent to fight. The Olympians who have children there are more likely to spare their favourite ones and hold it over their heads for the rest of their life. (And leave the ones they don't like to die)

Sponsorships still happen, it's an effective way to break the comradeship. You're more likely to receive one if 1) Your godly parent is an Olympian and/or 2) You’re more willing to put up with whatever the gods throw at you without a fuss.

The current run is broadcasted to the imprisoned demis as a further way to break their spirits, and so they can see their friends kill eachother, sometimes without hesitation.

The winners gets paraded around Mt. Olympus. They're free now that won the gods's bloody bullshit, right? Wrong. Sure they're being "celebrated" for killing their friends but they're nothing more than shiny trophies. Just props for entertainment :)

Of course, with the way things are broadcasted to the other members of army make it seem like one of their own being treated like a celebrity for turning on them, which further drives wedges between the victors and them.

The winners gets to watch their own run, too. They can't turn on Olympus if they're too busy self-loathing :)

The kids are prepped up before their interviews, a courtesy of Aphrodite (so what if some of her own children are there, they should've knew better than treason), but they’re sent to the arena with basic white chitons. The Olympians get nostalgic all right, they’re old. (And it does make the Ta demis feel even more degraded and patronised.)

The Arena itself is really pretty, too pretty for what's happening inside. I'm talking about polished marble Greek columns, giant statues of the gods, intricate carvings of silver and gold.

[It is of course designed by their newest architect. Not that Annabeth knows what it's going to be used for. They petition for "a shiny arena for godly games" and she does it. Not knowing it's going to be used for demigod bloodshed. She can't be imprisoned like her half-brother Daedalus however, they can't have either of the camps know about what's going on. (Those in Ta who knew her recognises her work, however causing them to think the Camp is on it) So, Hera kindly takes it upon herself to wipe the memory. She needed practice for her future exchange program anyway.]

"Why are you protesting that "we're forcing you to kill eachother" Torrington, we aren't the ones who are holding weapons."
