@strungoutheart percabeth wedding
We as a fandom have really been sleeping on the fact that the Disney+ Percy is canonically an artist. It’s one of the first things we’re given about him as a character within the first 10 minutes of the show, and I loved seeing the giant page of Greek doodles. Anyway, I feel like there's a ton of potential for this to be used in the future, so here are just a few of my ideas on possible ways to bring it back.
Percy, who can’t for the life of him remember what a monster is called, so he quickly sketches it out so Annabeth and Grover can play a guessing game on what he’s talking about
Annabeth finding Percy’s notebook filled with sketches of her and other little memories from their quests (cough cough, Spider-Verse)
Percy absently drawing a picture of the random girl who keeps appearing in his dreams, only for Annabeth to look over his shoulder and gasp at the spot-on image of her big sister
TTC Nico, seeing Percy stress doodling what Dr. Thorn looked like and immediately begging him to draw other monsters or Gods that he’s encountered
Rachel Elizabeth Dare and Percy bonding over art in a way that totally DOESN’T make Annabeth’s eye twitch
SON Percy desperately trying to draw out the blurry memory of Annabeth only to crumble the paper when he can’t get her features exactly right.
I honestly doubt we will see it used again, but if we did, I would be delighted.
I feel like not enough people understand equity versus equality when it comes to representation (or anything else, honestly, but im sticking to representation for now).
I'm gonna use the new little mermaid movie as my primary example here because it seems like that's what people have been up in arms over these days. One of the arguments I'm seeing is, "If you made Tiana or Moana white, you guys would be mad." You mean Tiana, whose background is rooted in being a Black woman in 1920s Louisiana? You mean Moana, whose entire story is based on her being Polynesian? You're comparing them being made white to a character whose only story-specific trait is that she has a fishtail being Black? Really?
But aside from that, this argument also comes up with different fanart interpretations. I see it on platforms like TikTok, mainly when a Black creator shares their fanart where they made certain white characters Black or mixed. The comments are filled with more of the same. "But if it was the other way around, there would be a problem."
People don't understand that for many, many years, white people were the default in shows, books, and other media. The other day, I was talking to a friend about how the media I consumed as a child made me assume that everyone I met online was white until proven otherwise. People of color have needed to create their own representation through fan content because where else would we get it? Being the "default," white people have an advantage. There are seven white Disney princesses (depending on who you ask). There is one Black Disney princess in the form of Tiana. If you make Ariel Black, NOTHING changes; there are still seven white Disney princesses because the original Ariel the Mermaid is still there. She does not go away. But if you make the live adaptation character Black, it adds to Black representation.
At the end of the day, if you say that it isn't actually equality because Black can't be made white but white characters can be made Black, you'd be correct. It's not equality; it's equity. There has to be equity because giving everyone the same treatment when one group has a higher advantage isn't equality anyway.
But why not make something entirely new for representation instead of replacing others?
This is a sentiment I've seen a few times, not just on this post but others.
First of all, when it comes to live action adaptions, or adaptions in general, nothing is being replaced. All of it is additional; the source material is still there. Nothing is being taken away, just adding.
Second: we would love new stories. The fact is our stories do not have an equal chance of being told, because most of the people who are running these studios do not care about Black and brown voices. So part of it is taking what we can get, and another part of it is proving to studios that these stories can sell and are worth being told by more than just one token person.
And actually, when we do get original stories, white people complain anyway! They complain about movies like Across the Spiderverse which is packed with diversity. They complain about too much "wokeness" (which is a dog whistle for Blackness, btw) in Hollywood. They complain that they can't relate to the characters. They complain about "Black Panther" because there was only one white guy and a colonizer joke and say the movie is overhyped anyway. They complain about movies like Blue Beetle which has a Latino main character and say "does every single aspect about his life have to be tacos?" That is a REAL QUOTE from a so-called movie review on YouTube (I am not linking it because I don't want to give it any more attention). In that same review, they trivialize the very real examples of racism depicted in the film. They complain whenever a movie is centered around a culture other than their own.
The bottom line is, we still have a long way to go in terms of reaching equality in representation. That is why we have equity.

My take about percabeth is that yes it is "girl with abandonment issues"/"boy with loyalty as a fatal flaw" but I also think it's "boy that has never thought of anything for himself"/"girl who is ready with a powerpoint presentation of their future together"
Like, percy does not have any ambition. One of the first things he says about himself in tlt is that his life is "short and miserable". He has very low self steem and view of himself, and even though he has his mom, and friends, is not until he falls in love with annabeth that he gets an idea of what a future for himself would look like. The only times he imagines it is when thinking of annabeth. When rejecting inmortality, when in new rome and in the lete, when annabeth asks him what he wants to study. In tartarus, imagining marrying her and having children.
It might sound far fetched, but for most of the books he seems to be living his life as if just trying to survive day to day. He doesn't mind dying for the prophecy very much. Is only her voice that brings him out of the styx. Is only her that makes him want to look beyond what he is and makes him think of what he could be.
You're so right.
ily the hunger games <3
I just love Annabeth Chase so much. I love her flaws most of all. I love that she’s proud, and can’t spell, and is a little mean, and gets jealous. I love that, despite these very common flaws that so many teen girls have, the books show over and over that she is a good, kind person who deserves to be loved anyway. I think that letting Annabeth be flawed, make mistakes, and occasionally act on her worst behavior, and still be the hero and love interest is one of the best, most significant writing choices Rick ever made.

When camp half blood got that burnt message saying percy and Annabeth were is Tartarus everyone was worried of course
Not even gods dared to venture there, they all thought they were as good as dead
No one could ever in the past accuse Clarisse about caring for percy, but maybe if she was twitchy since she found that out, people pretended not to notice
they also pretended not to notice how she would hold her boyfriends hand extra tight during the meetings, and stare at the aphrodite cabin.
No one would mention how she wasnt rude to athena cabin for once, or how she didnt make fun of percy when he was brought up
and maybe she would refuse to say it to anyone but chris but percy was the only one who wasnt scared of her or her father, actively challenging her and making her work
and maybe she had known annabeth for so long since they were both young, playing together and fighting like siblings.
Maybe she had grown closer to annabeth helping her look for percy and was a little worried
and maybe she yelled at people when they brought up how they could be dead
but she would blame that on the on coming war that she had to plan for
And no one would push
because they all understood too, but clarisse wasnt one to talk about feelings
especially not since silena died.
And just maybe. MAYBE. clarisse hugged percy extra hard when he got back, and maybe she cried a little on annabeth. but no one would mention it, but they knew. everyone knew.
Have you seen those videos of kids that think their mom’s names are ‘my love’ or ‘sweetheart’ and other terms of endearment their dad calls her? I was thinking that in your future fics the kids might just start parroting what Percy and Annabeth call eachother without knowing what it means
tl'dr: good luck telling a tiny baby who's 1/4 Athena and 1/2 Annabeth that she's wrong about something

Ms. Sasha was helping the kids fill out their mother's day worksheets. The holiday was over the weekend, and so the pre-school class was making crafts for Mom, and filling out little worksheets to take home.
"Sophia, what's your mommy's name?" Ms. Sasha asked. Sasha did have favorites, and Sophia was up there. She was precocious and reliably potty trained already at two years and ten months and actually very good at sharing, although not so good at nap time.
"Beautiful," Sophia told her confidently.
"Aw, that's cute. But that's not your mommy's name." Sasha knew her name was Annabeth, she dropped her girls off at the daycare every morning.
"That's what Daddy says," Sophia said. She was a good talker too, with a big vocabulary and solid pronunciation for her age. "Hi, Beautiful."
Sasha knew Percy too. He picked the kids up around four every day. He was the hottest daddy at the daycare. Everyone knew him.
"That's a very nice thing for your daddy to say, and your mommy is very pretty, but that's not her first name," Sasha tried to explain. For a moment, she thought about just writing Annabeth on the paper and telling Sophia it said beautiful. But with Sasha's luck that would be the moment that Sophia informed them she knew how to read.
"It is!" Sophia yelled, her little temper rising.
Sasha tried to calm the brewing storm, offering to just write "Beautiful" anyway, but the battle was already lost. Sophia hadn't slept well at nap time, or eaten the snack of pears afterwards, meaning she was sleepy and hungry. Ms. Sasha's usually bright and loving Sophia was, to put it simply, turning into a cranky little nightmare.
Ms. Sasha hated to send her off to her dad while she was still crying, but Percy showed up early, like he usually did on Fridays, coming in at three instead of four.
"Daddy!" Sophia said, running up to him, her melt down starting up all over again. Percy placed the car seat that held her baby sister down on the floor to scoop Sophia up.

After drones repeatedly hovered over the ‘Madleen’ last night, we need people of the world to help tag and email their foreign ministry. The volunteers aboard are delivering life-saving aid to Gaza. They are unarmed, carrying only food, medicine, and baby formula, and acting fully within international law.
It’s time for world governments to step up. Demand they protect their citizens aboard the ‘Madleen’ and stop enabling Israel’s war crimes.
Safe passage is a legal obligation, and a moral one.

My secret is that my wife was in an extremely bad period in her life when she entered into a contest for knitting supplies. She loved knitting as a teenager and wanted to get back into it as an adult, but felt like we couldn't afford it. She wouldn't buy anything, and wouldn't let me get anything for her because it would be "a waste of money." So when she got an email from a knitting newsletter she followed talking about the contest, she entered and won third place - a little basic kit that got her excited to start and started pulling her out of her dark place.
This is when you go "aha. You cheeky devil. Did you cheat slmehow? Is that your secret?" But no. My secret is, I faked it all. I created a fake knitting blog, and sent it to her as "something I found." I ran it for a few months talking about made up craft projects with photos off the internet and things. Then I faked the contest, sold some of my possessions to buy the "prize" and let her win. Six months later I stopped posting and she didn't even notice. She still talks about that prize she won as turning her life around, and she'll never know I invented the whole thing.
Now this is some real lover shit!!!

No, actually I will never be over Annabeth throwing her knife into the ocean hoping Percy will notice and come help only to have Percy, king among boyfriends, make the most dramatic ass entrance, knocking out attackers with a giant wave, ocean waves cascading behind him as he casually walks up onto the beach to Annabeth, hands her her knife and says “I think you dropped this.” Fucking legend.
