so are we gonna ignore the fact that Rick Riordan wrote in Percy saying “find someone who loves you the way my girlfriend pushes me off a cliff. Without hesitation” knowing that in a couple months we’ll see a different take on a moment in their early relationship where Annabeth pushes Percy into water as he questions “what is wrong with you?”. Like is the growth from this suppose to be backshadowing? Reverse dramatic irony?

I hear the wind talk
But I speak the language of rain

it’s called hypnagogia. the amount of times i’ve nearly shifted with this method is UNREAL.
hypnagogia is a state between wakefulness and sleep.
have you ever been watching a show/movie etc. and you keep dozing off to sleep and keep waking up, yeah it’s that.
usually in this state people hear/see scary stuff but it ain’t real
when you are on the brink of sleep, try not to move so you don’t get rid of that drowsy ness
lay in a comfy position and you can
say affirmations
visualisation
use 5 senses
listen to music that reminds you of ur dr
you will almost feel symptoms instantly because you have been detached from your CR and this makes attaching to your DR more easier.
this method really works litch tried it in school and felt my surroundings change but i got scared my teacher would snitch and woke up…
but hope this helps !
When we finally make it to confirmed romantic Percabeth and Athena pulls the “I don’t approve of your relationship with my daughter” bs card, we’re going to watch Percy’s war flashbacks in real time a split second before he says the equivalent of “DISRESPECTFULLY, choke” as he proceeds to turn down godhood and launch himself into hell.
It didn’t hit as hard in the books but the tv adaption of the Echidna sequence? Athena punishing Medusa because of Poseidon and then punishing Annabeth because she can’t punish Percy? Percy “Annabeth would push me down a flight of stairs” Jackson uno-reversing and pushing her into the arch stairwell because he knows what sort of bullshit is it is to be punished for something you didn’t do by a [step]parent who’s made you desperate for their approval? We haven’t even made it out of book one and Percy has already shown Olympus just how much he does not care about them, but especially when it comes to the safety of his friends.
I love that the show is giving Grover so much more screen time and is really diving deeper into his character. Particularly his reaction to his uncle’s death.
In the books, he was a little shocked when he first saw his statue at Medusa’s place but he quickly moved on.
In the show, he was visibly grieving and the first thing he said to Augustus was that his uncle died and he doesn’t know how to talk about it with his friends. Or rather, he doesn’t think they’d understand.
There’s just this clear divide between his perception of the world and Percy and Annabeth’s perception.
I just love the use of bestie here😂😂😂
it just occurred to me that nobody bothered to tell Annabeth about Ares and the helm and the bolt since she was in asphodel.
Girl saw her bestie challenge a god to combat with no context a couple hours before her oldest friend tried to kill her bestie. The girl must be confuzzled.
But you know what he still did? Blindly trusted that Grover couldn't possibly be the friend who betrays him from the prophecy. It never even crossed his mind that Grover had stood against him even if it was for protecting him. Because, I mean, I don't think any friend would just accept it that easily. Ykwim?
Percy’s face when Sally mentioned Grover playing a role in getting him kicked out of school…
The way his face scrunches up really tight before relaxing? That’s anger.
But not the kind of anger we see in him in the last episode.
This is the kind of anger that makes you cry. The kind that’s underpinned by embarrassment and hurt and feeling like you’ve been treated unfairly.
Percy knows he didn’t push Nancy into the fountain and he thought that, if anyone would have his back, it was going to be Grover. And then he didn’t. And it’s unfair to Percy. It’s Wrong. Because no one believes him, apparently not even his best friend.
And the way he closes his eyes and takes a really deep breath? That’s a tactic that’s literally recommended to stop yourself from crying when you’re angry. It allows your body to “catch up” with your mind.
What do you wanna bet that Percy learned that from a school counselor?
SOMEONE HAS PROBABLY SAID THIS BEFORE BUT THE SHOW FOCUSES ON PERCY SEEING THINGS RIGHT?? LIKE THE BOOKS WERE MORE “THIS INEXPLICABLE STUFF HAPPENS TO ME” AND THE SHOW WAS MORE “I SEE THESE INEXPLICABLE THINGS” RIGHT?? AND IN THE SHOW PEOPLE ALWAYS TELL HIM HE’S IMAGINING IT. AND IN SOM HE CARRIES A PICTURE OF ANNABETH AROUND TO REMIND HIMSELF THAT SHE’S REAL. SO IN THE SHOW IT’S GONNA BE LIKE. “I DIDN’T MAKE HER UP. SHE ISN’T SOMETHING I IMAGINED. SHE’S REAL. SHE’S REAL.” I’M NOT GOING TO MAKE IT
