Listen, listen, transfem Percy is the version of what a beautiful woman should look like in ancient Greece. First, they're stunned by her beauty, then confused when they're told she's a man (transphobia), and then they don't care because they see her as a cute boy (transphobia again). Let's remember that in ancient times there was a lot of homosexuality and love for effeminate men (a lot of transphobia and pedophilia). Basically, it was normal because men were great and glorious, and it was okay to admire such beauty (a very strange way of saying you're gay, but who am I to tell them anything?). But here's the important thing: transfem Percy looks like Helen! And it's hard to see the resemblance because of their facial expressions, so when they both act the same way, they look incredibly alike because they're cousins! And I just want to see everyone nervous and acting silly in front of the second most beautiful woman in Greece, and Helen defending her cousin because she loves her and she's her COUSIN, and she'll kick anyone who says otherwise.
Helena and Percy may not look that much alike physically, because Percy is definitely taller, but they probably share some noticeable traits.
Triton and Poseidon? šš
You won't give me any hints about what their future relationship will be like? Won't they feel any affection for this new little sister? Will they torture any transphobic or degenerate person who looks at their lovely little sister/princess with lust or disdain?
ANON, Anon you cannot be clocking me like this š«µ
YOU CANNOT GET AWAY WITH THIS!
HOW DID YOU GUESS SEVERAL PLOT POINTS š«µš«µš«µ
1) I am planning on using Helen (whether in name or in person) and her relationship (familial) to Percie for SEVERAL things (mostly appearance but also a couple of other things including , PERHAPS, being Helenās parallel)
2) You are correct in that I am using Ancient Greeceās ā¦UNIQUEā¦ Misogynistic, vaguely PEDOPHILIC view on homosexuality to then go into the intricacies and struggles of transfem Percie
3) Not a plot point, but is a fair bit taller than Helen (and many of the men)(which will also somewhat play into the transphobia)
4) Triton rarely gets to know his demigod siblings and so for most of the beginning and probably much of the middle he wonāt really interact with her but he might be mentioned (no comment on their relationship)
5) Poseidon during this time is still in his vaguelyā¦ Unhinged Era (cough typical Greek Pantheon behavior cough)(you know what Iām talking about), he also hasnāt been introduced to modern concepts of feminismā¦ and equalityā¦ and not treating your children as extensions of yourself (he was a fairly good father for the time, but that was for the time) and while he may protect her thatās more for his own pride
6) Percie is not only an older but much more experienced version of canon!Percy (in addition to the obvious) and she is not a woman to be played with (I wonāt be saying anymore besides youāll see)š
Anyway, thatās all for nowš
