[holds softly]

Just OG trio things <333

counter argument:

DO IT GROVER ITS WORTH IT YOU'LL END UP IN A WEDDING DRESS WITH A CYCLOPS TRYING TO MARRY YOU

"No one's ever botherd to check the seas"

DONT DO IT GROVER ITS NOT WORTH IT YOU'LL END UP IN A WEDDING DRESS WITH A CYCLOPS TRYING TO MARRY YOU

now that we have season two confirmed, please present your dream grover dresses for consideration

Its Canon. I've decided it's Canon so therefore it is. /j

headcanon that grover and percy are just completely incapable of arguing. might as well be canon too, cause like everytime in the books there's some conflict, it just goes like this:

percy: *narrating* i am so annoyed at grover. i am literally shaking with anger right now. I don't wanna talk to him 😠

grover: *sad brown eyes* sorry, percy 🥺

percy: .....

percy: what are you SAYING, it's all MY fault for getting mad 🥺 what is WRONG with me i'm so stupid please give me a hug 😭 you did nothing wrong ❤️

I'm rewatching ep 3 and the parallels between Medusa and Sally and the way they talk about each other has me in a chokehold

Where is my AU fic where Medusa and Sally are dating and raise Percy together?

They are going over strategy

you know what i think would be fucking hilarious? if percy was fighting a monster and instead of using his sword or some other demigod powers or magic he just straight up clocks it in the face. like he just starts throwing hands. he’s a new yorker. he got kicked out of multiple boarding schools. like fuck all the proper demigod ways of fighting, just BAM! have an unexpected knuckle to the face bitch

pjo spoilers

"we're here" grover that tree is at least three miles away what do you MEAN

At the Hoover dam

I tried to find a scene where I could draw the new Percy Jackson actors but I think I’m done with them now lmao (they’re cool and all, but I’ll stick to my design… also Annabeth isn’t in this ig)

Also couldn’t be bothered to look up a reference sorrynotsorryyyy

I never draw them usually so take it in boys. It’s the main three but as the new actors (really exited for the series to come out ayooo, apparently they are (or already have) filming the last ep btw)

Anyway, I know that Grover is 12 physically, but he's the best representation of someone in their 20s; anxious, trying to do things and to get others' shit together. Can someone give him a raise? And a snack? He really needs that

I always have been such a fan of pjo and i have to say ...totally hyped for the show😌👀👀

guys i just found my favourite response to the casting announcement.

love how no matter what, in all the pjo adaptations, grover has been nonwhite. filipino grover in the musical, black grover in the movies, and desi grover in the tv show

On a book hunt

The writers of Disney's Percy Jackson could do the funniest thing... Do you know how Percy mocks Athena with the posh english accent? They could let Toby Stephens keep his accent, his very natural and very posh english accent.

Then, when they meet for the first time, with Annabeth and Grover in tow, and Poseidon open his mouth... the poor boy would be so mortified and ashamed that his deadbeat dad speak with that accent, that he would momentarily forget about his quest for child support: "Stop that sound you're making with your mouth. You're so embarrassing"

And yk what I was waiting for? Charon to actually act like the underpaid employee that he is and Percy promising him that he'll talk to Hades about that raise. Which he does.

This is scene would be remembered with fondness.

This was the silliness missing in the episode! Was waiting for it the moment Charon appeared.

OH MY HOLY GODDESS SALLY JACKSON, YES! YESSSSSSS, WE NEED THIS. ARGHHHHHH YESSSS

My truest hope for PJO season 2 is that they put Grover in the full bridal saree and not a white gown. Aryan would look quite pretty, i think.

Sally Jackson really said "drop everything now meet me in the pouring rain" and Poseidon answered

I FUCKING KNOW RIGHT. LIKE, THEY WERE SO ICONIC FOR DOING THAT AND WHEN I TELL YOU I SQUEALED LIKE THE TEENAGER I BARELY AM I MEAN IT

THE START WITH LUKE DOING A SIMILAR MONOLOGUE TO PERCY THEIR PARRALLELS AND THE REVEQL SCENE WAS SO DRAMATIC WITH ANNABETHS CAP AN THE MOODY LIGHTIBG IM GONNA GO FERAL IM GONNA SCREAAAAMMMMM!!!!!!! JDBDJSBSHDUUDUHDDHDUIEHEHD

When I tell you I judged myself so bad for being that attracted to, like, a guy. And that too a Greek God.

I mean he's fictional so at least there's that-

“the sea does not like to be restrained”

i squealed

did the show just delete the fact that percy was a wanted criminal in the entirety of the lightning thief? gabe gave an interview, blaming percy for sally's dissappearence, which made him the primary suspect. like the police was after him when they blew up the bus and his iconic 'my stepdad is a really sweet person' speech to a journalist after jumping from saint monica arc, people conspiring that they were manipulated into a t*rrorist group after his fight with ares. like????? where's all that?? where's the good stuff???

Lotus Casino: We have the power of the Lotus flowers to make people forget that we have been perfecting for years. What do you have?

Percabeth: We have the power of......✨️Friendship✨️

percy and annabeth resisting the magical powers of the lotus flower through the Power Of Friendship ™️

Ok, but you know what I absolutely loved? The whole I'm a big fan thing that Grover did, like, such a classic manipulation move. I just love how much Grover truly understands the human(+god) nature. And I love how subtly he made Ares let out about how he actually knew who the real thief was and I just loved how Grover knew the exact words about it. I mean I'm pretty sure he has negative idea who the actual thief is but we can't really blame him for that. That's a shittona trust they're gonna have broken. They wouldn't have had intrusive thoughts about. Never. But yeah. This, this is a, sort of, mini Grover appreciation post. I wanna appreciate him more but I just thought of something else, but yes.

one thing that drives me absolutely insane is that ive seen so many comments talking about how tvpjo!annabeth isnt their annabeth bc shes not tan and blonde but i dont see people complaining about literally anyone else!! there are SO FEW characters if at all that stay faithful to their book descriptions! luke isnt a blonde guy, percy doesnt have black hair and green eyes, grover doesnt have a rasta cap on, chirons horse end is black not white, echidna is NOTTT supposed to be a conventionally attractive older woman i could keep GOING.

at the end of the day these people are portraying these characters essences incredibly, and this tv series is by far one of the best adaptations ive ever seen of any popular book. to take that for granted and complain because of different hair and skin, especially singling out ONE twelve year old girl is so childish and frankly! disgusting.

Percy "I am SALLY JACKSON'S son" Jackson

percy "i am impertinent" jackson

I feel a certain way about Percy choosing Grover as quest-mate—even as he remembered the prophecy specifically told him he would be betrayed by a friend. Even as he knew Grover had hidden many things from him as a friend before.

Loyalty is his flaw. His strength.

Percy trusted that his faith in Grover went above the oracle’s words because his priority wasn’t truly the quest at heart, it was his mother. And he believed trusting Grover to care about that was the best thing he could do

Okay but if the Mythomagic cards were so accurate about the Minotaur and his underwear, and Grover used them to “train” Percy, does that mean the satyrs designed and mass produced these cards themselves? Whose idea was it? Did they like have a big meeting about recruitment and go “What do the kids like these days? Pokey-man? Let’s make a Greek myth Pokey-man game. That’ll help,” and they interviewed a ton of campers like, “Hey, I know that time you almost got killed by a Gorgon was super traumatizing, but we just wanna make sure our cute little card design is accurate. Were her snakes green or purple? Also, would you classify her as Class A or B in power?” Did the campers get super into it too? Was it a group effort? Do they have to update the decks regularly based on new information? Which generation of Mythomagic cards did Percy use? Is the OG packaging limited edition? How popular are they in normal life? Do they get covered by the Mist, and people like Rachel think they’re just insane when they see Mythomagic in a shop window, and everyone else thinks it’s a Pokémon deck? Are there satyrs out in the world running game shops, and whenever someone asks about Mythomagic, they’re like “Do you come from a single-parent household, and also do you want to be friends?” How deEP DOES THIS GO??

Everything else aside, you know what else is fucked up? How Athena let ECHIDNA, the literal MOTHER of all monsters and the freakin CHIMERA into her "temple". And for what? Annabeth "embarrassed" her??? By letting her demigod quest companion do what he wanted with HIS battle ruins??? AND SHE KNEW THERE WERE CIVILIANS???????

I am having such a hard time picturing me wanting to take the Gods' side in season 5. I just don't see it happening.
