Jacob Peralta stating the facts as always

Even when they get together she's all "I am never ever going to make things easy for you, Seaweed Brain. Get used to it."

And then after being dragged through hell being in a coma for months, being homeless for months, not remembering a single thing about his life and immediately getting forced on a quest and then a huge battle, he has to put up with Annabeth being rough with him.

like my boy Percy was in desperate need for a long nap and a hug, an actual hug not one after being punch over the floor, but nooooo

Mh, ngl, I considered just deleting this ask because it's ridiculous. But sure, on the pissing-on-the-poor website, let's answer it.

I love Percy Jackson and the Olympians. I have a lot of beef with the sub-par writing in Heroes of Olympus and I did, in fact, stop engaging with Riordan's writing after that series because it kept getting worse. That doesn't make me stop loving the characters or the world though.

Unsure what made you think I don't like PJO, can only assume you came across my Riordan Critical tag posts.

And if that's the case then, damn, I'm just a fan of not... mindlessly consuming media, I think that it's fun to apply my critical thinking brain to the things I consume. And, quite frankly, for a lot of Riordan's bad decisions, I do think they need to be called out. The majority of flag he gets is for bad representation and it would be horrendous if people just... sad down and ignored it. I'll not do that, as a woman and as a queer person, and I will stand with every POC who feels misrepresented by him.

I also have yet to find the perfect piece of media that isn't worthy of any form of critic. That doesn't exist. Even for my most favorite show, I could make you a very lengthy critical post right now.

I don't know why there is this assumption that if you find flaw in something, and if you voice the flaw, then you must not like it. It just means you have... reading comprehension and critical thinking??

Lastly, I don't really know how I feel about your choice to call it a "children's media", because it comes off like an attempt to mock me for still engaging with it when, in fact, probably two third of any given old children's media are usually adults who used to grow up on it. At the very least half of this fandom is by now in their thirties. Don't act like just because a book published in 2005 that was aimed at preteens then has an exclusively preteen fandom now. That's ridiculous.

Clark: [laughing] That's because we are already dating

[collectively yelling WHAT]

Clark: [changing into Superman] hate to leave like this on our first meet but Metropolis needs me

You wouldn't be saying that if the genders were reversed.

You wouldn't be saying that about Gabe hitting Percy because what could a regular human do to a demigod.

You'd be calling for Percy's head if he ever hit Annabeth for something as petty as not picking up on his hints that he wanted to dance.

You'd be calling for Percy's head if he ever victim blamed Annabeth for her kidnapping.

You'd be calling Gabe's abuse of Percy abuse if he stuck around for more than one book.

Annabeth hitting Percy is not okay.
