is it just me or does anyone else fall in love with the way rick wrote annabeth in cotg
she's living her best architect life in sodnyc, she doesnt have a physical description, she has a roommate who is her friend, she's a busy person who has to get to classes, she regularly visits the jacksons, she was so sweet, she hyped percy up when he was insecure about being an older stepbrother even though she had so much trauma associated with her step siblings, she tears up when sally complements her, she's the top in all of her classes, she has new hobbies like baking, SHE HAS A FREAKING FANCLUB AND PERCY IS KNOWN TO PPL AS HER COLLEAGUE, she was one of the funniest characters literally i ate up all of her stupid little cheesy puns (its not radioactive, honey!!!!)
i just love to see our girl flourish and i feel like her appearances in trials of apollo and the kane chronicles crossover last book just felt like she was there to be the abeth in percabeth

world series defense is one of my favorite episodes overall but also one of the best macdennis episodes. I've been told this is an unhinged opinion but perhaps you guys simply do not understand macdennis the way I do or perceive what I perceive

FILM SET DETAIL — Albus Dumbledore’s Defense Against the Dark Arts office from
FANTASTIC BEASTS: THE SECRETS OF DUMBLEDORE (2022)
“Instead of a desk, Dumbledore works on a round table that is stacked with students’ class assignment notebooks (color coded by house), end of term reports, letters from fellow professors, and a page on knitting patterns.”

This episode they really showed how Uea wants sex to distract himself to make the bad feelings go away for a while and King is the only safe option (not the best way of coping maybe atm but it gets better). Hope they will make him talk about it because I feel many in the audience still don’t understand the link between sex and comfort and coping especially for an abuse victim who always turns to it after triggering events (still think this part is more about the mom, cause whenever the stepdad is part of the trigger he can’t have sex or cuddles ... at least can’t enjoy it as we have seen in this episode). Shortly said, an orgasm gives you dopamine, and it’s all your mind and body focuses on in that moment. Reasons why this could end up in an addiction under the wrong circumstances. Under the right ones it can be therapeutic and have an antidepressant effect.
Uea is a bit torn with King. The caring side of King is an unexpected surprise for him every time. He doesn't really expect kindness from people. But he's glad whenever he receives it from people he trusts. Which King became a part of way too fast for Uea to admit (he’s a player after all). That’s why he rarely shows King his smiles when he’s fond of him. I think the cake scene was one of the rare moments he truly showed him this kind of vulnerability to him (him being truly happy, it’s a delicate feeling easily snatched away under his circumstances). He also took a long time to even understand that King really means it, that this birthday cake is really for him because King really wants to make him happy and he’s allowed to take it. I wonder if the little cake fight and unceremonial bite into the cake is an emotional defense from Uea to not get too deep into vulnerable emotions and turn it into fun / silly & sexy moment instead while still keeping the good vibe.
He’s not ready for an emotional bond with him yet when they clearly stated from the beginning this will just be about sex and they don’t even like each other (we all know that’s a lie). I suspect Uea has trust issues as well since his stepdad always acts nice, caring and misunderstood... so Uea needs a while to learn if people really mean it or if they just want something from him.
I bet that will become a big issue at some point, when they both think the other has no feelings while they secretly do have feelings. I fear Uea will push King away for a while when their feelings get clearer.

My mom told me that she saw S1 of IASIP around when the show was first getting popular and disliked it (her words were 'hipster garbage'. Which is a little weird) but expressed interest in watching another episode with me when I told her that S1 was just kind of bad and it gets better.
But like I'm quickly realizing that it is literally fucking impossible to come up with a good introductory episode that is a) funny b) a good showcase of the show c) nothing that will scare people off before they can get accommodated to how horrible everything is

Im rereading nona and i am baffled anew by people who listen to jod recount every single agonizing step in his slow and terrible descent and are like, "wow John was always an awful irredeemable liar and his reluctance to admit that he set off the nukes was not, in fact, him struggling to accept the magnitude of how completely and terribly he failed and became the very person he was trying to stop, but was just another calculated lie because he's a Bad Man. if it were me i would have simply not done that." I have to assume these are the same people who read "**When our backs are against the wall and everything is falling apart we rarely become heroes" and were like "huh i wonder who thats for"
**approximate quote from memory because I cannot for the life of me find the exact excerpt but it was one of Wake's "letters" that only Harrow could read while they were in the bubble
