it changes the worldbuilding for sure because as poseidon explains/implies, all the gods were able to have contact with their children until poseidon became infatuated with sally and percy and that's when zeus forced them all to stay away. so like everyone bonding over the course of the movie in never having met their godly parents kinda falls on percy and poseidon in that had percy never been born, everyone would've grown up having some contact with their parents.

Heres some babies

This one is less baby

Fun fact. These motherfuckers can kill you

Antis will claim that they are “protecting children” but then call people who harm fictional children pedophiles. But as a victim of CSA myself, I find it super offensive and harmful when these antis throw around the word pedo to anyone and anything that mildly makes their fragile little brain uncomfortable.

No. People who fantasize fictional children are NOT pedophiles because for someone to be that, they have to have harmed real children. A real child that I used to be when I was assaulted.

So by calling everyone who harms fictional children a pedophile, you’re dismissing my trauma and experience by reducing it to ***fictional kids being harmed*** and you’re actually helping real pedophiles who harm real children like me get away with it easier because now people have associated the word with “dark fiction” instead of real life harm, thanks to you.

So it’s antis who ARE harming real children because they want to protect fictional ones. Fuck off.

I was a CSA victim, and I say “let dark ship enjoyers write whatever they want”. They’re not harming real kids like you do.

Not to mention, a lot of victims like me use dark fiction to help us cope with our trauma. So not only are antis helping actual pedophiles get away with harming real children easier, they’re also calling CSA victims pedophiles because we write about fictional things that make them uncomfortable (even though we never force anybody to read our shit).

And she thrives.

Not at first, of course--she's scared, and angry, and incredibly confused by this brand new world she's been plunged into. But life in the Titan army isn't so different from the rigid atmosphere of military school, and since she knows that Nico, at least, is safe, it doesn't take long for her to start appreciating her newfound freedom (so to speak). Housed in the girls' barracks and put through training, she makes friends and a name for herself as a very powerful demigod. She isn't sure she's on board with overthrowing the Olympians--she can't hate her father, she doesn't even know him--but between the respect she earns and the rush of finally, finally being free to be herself, she finds it ever easier to play along.
