if demigods were allowed smart phones the very first contact percy would make with any of the greeks in SoN would be sending thalia a video of him using the 12th legions eagle to shoot lightning and smirking into the camera. no words spoken. no context given. she's crushing her phone in her hand as she watches it.
What makes this even funnier is that she is in the middle of looking for him. And he probably had to do it from a random phone he ‘borrowed’ (stole).
No because what do you mean Luke and Annabeth had to spend the first few hours of their official first day at camp making a shroud for Thalia?
What do you mean they had to burn it in front of over a dozen campers who didn't even know her?
Do you think Luke tried to say a few words, but like Pollux several years down the line, was too choked up to get the words out and just took the torch and set it ablaze while Annabeth clung to his pant leg with tears falling down her cheeks?
sooo, technically, after the battle of Manhattan, the curse upon the big three children is lifted, right ?
How quick do you think Zeus and Poseidon were to leave Olympus half in ruins to run down to earth and to go hit on all the attractives mortals around ? Let's be honest, Percy, Jason, Thalia and Tyson have now a army of brand new half-sibilling. They are just like, two years old max.
This is what I've been saying! 29 yo Percy is going to show up at camp and find his cabin absolutely OVERRUN with newly claimed 13yos
oh fictional older sisters, you'll always be tragic.
🥲
(I added Andromeda because she's AN older sister, just not the oldEST sister)
✨PJO/HOO characters playing Stardew Valley in no particular order✨
Leo: it's a miracle his game doesn't crash with how many mods he's put in. He has several completed saves, all on different farms with different spouses. If anyone needs tips on the game, they go to him because they just know he has it all memorized.
Nico: he has a shared save with Will. He avoids the mines and the desert casino at all costs. He's mainly here for the cutscenes, Krobus, and the junimos.
Will: he does all the mining for Nico. He enjoys the grind and he relates heavily to Harvey. Him and Nico argue about whether to get a dog or a cat on the farm.
Percy: I don't think even he knows what he's doing. He didn't know he needed to water his crops, he gifts people random things without meaning to, and he put sap in the luau pot because he forgot to bring an actual ingredient. BUT, he knows every way to piss off Lewis and he takes every opportunity he can to do so.
Annabeth: she plans her farm perfectly and beautifully. She stays in the mines until 1 a.m., she ignores every villager but Linus, and she gets to level 100 of the Skull Cavern within a week of unlocking it.
Piper: I bet she's absolutely in love with Emily. Her main goal is to save her from Clint, and she probably marries Emily on Clint's birthday to REALLY break his heart. Also she probably mastered combat before any other skill.
Frank and Hazel: doing them together because they're a perfect team. They have a shared save and they accidentally speed run the game. Within the first two years, they're married, they've completed the museum, they've finished the community centre and the movie theatre, they've unlocked ginger island, and they're best friends with all the townsfolk. They don't know how they did it, it just happened.
Jason: he does the joja route just for shits and giggles, then gets really sad about it and starts a new save where he does the community centre route and marries Penny.
Reyna: she plays surprisingly normally. Nice and slow moving, not doing anything terribly dramatic, just hanging out and growing her farm. She really likes the casual gameplay.
Grover: he just watches other people play. He feels like he wouldn't enjoy it, but he looks things up on the wiki for his friends while they're playing. He knows all the lore just from the wiki and watching others play.
Thalia: honestly she'd probably use the game to live out all the romance she didn't get to experience, just for fun. She'd date all the bachelorettes at once but end up rooming with Krobus because she couldn't bring herself to choose. She'd also loooove fucking with Lewis tbh
"jason is a knockoff watered down percy" NO hear me out, jason actually parallels annabeth immensely, sharing SO many similarities with her personality, not percy, in this essay I will-
He parallels Annabeth, and Thalia definitely saw her little brother in the seven year old girl that she and Luke found while on their way to camp!
Friendly reminder that names have meaning in the pjo universe.
Percy/Perseus- to destroy or avenge, a Greek hero with a happy ending.
Leo/Leonidas - a spartan king who sacrificed himself to save his people.
Jason- healer/to heal, lead the argonauts to the Golden Fleece but died a painful death.
Thalia- an immortal muse of comedy and idyllic poetry.
Castor- to excel/to shine, killed while his twin brother survives (in the most common version of the myth).
Pollux- Crown/ very sweet, survives after his twin brother is killed.
<33
this might just be me but i always thought Thalia was named after the Thalia of the three Graces. she’s the goddess of festivities and daughter of Zeus
Ooo I never thought of that! I just remember learning about the muses and finding ironic that Thalia was named after an immortal and Jason was named after someone who had a terrible death-
<33
Thalia of the Muses is the more well known of the two so Thalia Grace was probably named after her.
I just always found it interesting that Thalia of the Graces was associated with youth and beauty and Thalia Grace is eternally youthful and beautiful (also bc her last name is Grace)!!
You can make an argument that any big three kid is the oldest, except for Jason.
Like, biologically, Percy has aged the most, he’s physically 17, which is more than any of the rest of them has reached
Thalia has mentally aged/matured the most, even if she stopped biologically aging at 15 years and 364 days, and should chronologically be in her 20s but spent some time as a tree where she aged slower.
Chronologically, Hazel was born the longest time from the present day, but she also died, and was in the underworld for decades before being resurrected, so that time didn’t really count for her, and she’s physically like 14.
Nico has been alive for the most time, but for 70 years he was in a place where he couldn’t physically age. He’s like…15 now and is aging normally, but has been alive since world war 2.
And then there’s Jason. Who had no wacky time shenanigans and died and didn’t come back. (Yet) honestly, and outlier who should not have been counted
I’ve literally been drawing Thalia for 12 years now 😭 She’s the reason I started listening to Green Day in elementary school. So I kinda owe my entire personality to a fictional character, but I digress. I’m so excited to see her on screen (the 3 seconds we got of her in the movies does not exist to me)!
