Spotify Is Raising Prices Again Here's The Apk That Gives You Premium For Free

irritating that both the percy jackson movies and the tv show take things that annabeth did (showcasing her personality and her dimensionality and whatnot) and giving it to percy or grover

like why write a female character if you’re going to butcher her in the adaptation

like they did the same bull shit to katara in the avatar movie and the live action show

#stopbutcheringfemalecharacters

no because i dont think you understand the absolute god maydayparade8123 is to pjo fanfiction

You know what? I don't want to change my VPN every six months cause it was caught selling information. I don't want to go deep into the settings of every website I so much as look at. I don't want my internet browsing to be a constant leap through hoops so that companies can't do things which should be illegal anyway. I want privacy to be the default and for it to be difficult to take it away, not the other way around. Is that too much to ask?

Just a reminder as we're all becoming continuing to be feral for season 2 of PJO

They're kids.

And as much as I love all the "omg he's totally Percy!!", just remember that he's not. They're actors. They're doing a phenomenal job and we're really lucky to have them as a fandom, but... remember that they've signed up for a big job at a very young age. It's our duty as a fandom (especially a fandom with a lot of adults in it) to protect them, make sure that they are being respected, and (APPROPRIATELY) call out inappropriate and/or disrespectful behaviour when we see it. If anyone needs it, I've put some examples below the cut.

✅Appropriate ✅

"Walker is such an incredible Percy!!!" "Leah does such a great job portraying Annabeth!!!!" "Their dynamic is amazing!!!"

"I don't like the way Walker plays Percy - I always saw him as XYZ." "I don't like Lea as Annabeth. It's just not how I saw her." (borderline. consider why you can't see Annabeth as anything except white. but if you're being polite, I'll give you a grudging pass)

Fully clothed/non-sexual fanart of the actors (in or out of character) (romantic is okay)

Posting/reposting consenting photos, (respectful) edits, etc of the actors in or out of character

Discussing details of their personal lives that the actors have chosen to share with the public (but don't make it weird, ok?)

❌Inappropriate❌

"Walker and Leah need to date irl, they have so much chemistry!!" uh. no. You're seeing *acting*. Leave their personal lives out of it

"Annabeth being played by a black actor is ridiculous, wokeness is getting out of control" or any variation upon that sentiment. Honestly just fuck off. Also (and yes this is a sub tweet) recolouring fanart that depicts Annabeth as black? Absolutely not. If you absolutely have to, go do your own fucking artwork like a normal human being instead of a racist POS.

Raunchy/suggestive/sexual fanart of the actors (in or out of character). Nope. They are children. Stop it. Don't care if you're "aging them up". Imagine how that feels for them.

Posting/reposting photos where the actors aren't/don't seem to be consenting to the photo

Speculating on or pressuring the actors to reveal ANY DETAILS about their private lives. This includes, but is far from limited to: their contact details/locations, their sexuality, their relationships, their diagnoses, their politics (they're still really young... idk about you guys but my political opinions were hot garbage at 16. they get a (moderate) pass until they're at least 18)

These are obviously non-extensive lists. Please use your brain, and, if in doubt, don't post it.

Also, if you see inappropriate behaviour, please don't be an idiot about it. First course of action should always be politely talking to the person in private. After that, yes, it may be appropriate to start publicly calling them out. Having said that, remember that teens can be dumb (speaking from lived experience...), so let's give them some grace. Ignoring, reporting, blocking, and not engaging is sometimes the best thing you can do for dumbasses, especially if they're attention-seeking.

I love you all and I have complete faith that we, as a fandom, can rally and make sure the cast knows that they are loved and respected.

I do sometimes think about all the smaller ways Sadie has been let down by other characters.

I think about how she was too young to understand that her grandparents tore her away from her father and brother.

I think about how she internalized that as abandonment by her dad, and that scar never went away even when she was old enough to understand.

I think about how she was in a bad mood at the beginning of the first book because most of the time with her dad was already gone.

I think about how she initially perceived her dad taking her and Carter to the British Museum as prioritizing his work over being her dad.

I think about how Sadie questioned if her dad and brother even still loved her.

I think about how she's always the one to be unfailingly loyal.

I think about how she trusted Bast when a magician accused Bast of abandoning her duty.

I think about how she believed Amos was in control of Set's power at the climax of the third book when everyone else doubted.

I think about how she still visited Bes's comatose body, despite not liking places like hospitals and nursing homes.

I think about how no one really extended her the same.

I think about how her grandparents didn't fight to keep her at home with them in Britain.

I think about how Carter chose to go after Zia instead of going with Sadie to find the book of Ra.

I think about how that made Sadie cry.

I think about Sadie, who feels abandonment extremely acutely, was forced to sacrifice her dad.

It's just something I think about.

Nico who, as he gets stronger, starts hearing voices saying his name. The first time it happens, he's just arrived back at camp and it's Will’s voice in his ears so of course he turns to find him in the dark and fears the worst when Will is nowhere close, because the dead have been calling his name for years.

He would have felt will's death, he knows that, but everything has been... off. Will is alive, of course, and so is Chiron, the next person Nico hears saying his name when they're not around him.

It takes a while, and he almost convinces himself he's gone insane first, but they figure out that he can hear when someone talks about him, much the same way gods can. For now, it's only when they're in the same general area, and he can only catch his name, but he's getting stronger. He can't help it.

The more powerful he gets, the farther away someone can be and still reach him. He starts to hear more than just his name, like a radio has been switched to a new broadcast channel every time he's mentioned, and he can tune in to hear what they say about him. They tell his stories; some friends, some enemies, many strangers.

As he gets stronger, he has to learn to shut it out, or it will break him, and he wonders if this is why the gods never seem to answer.

The first time he hears a prayer addressed to him, shakily whispered in a voice he's never heard before, he answers immediately. The younger sibling of a Roman camper he's met only in passing cowers in a corner, hiding from a monster and throwing our prayers to every deity they can think of, every name mentioned in a bedtime story about heroes who fight monsters and get gifted immortality for their efforts.

Only the Ghost King, whose rise to power was unsanctioned by the gods, unwanted, an act of rebellion, answers. Because it's not the gods who grant immortality, it's the storytellers.

they must be french
