Hiccstrid is crazy because it's Hiccup "would kill for her" Haddock and Astrid "would die for him" Hofferson, not the other way round.

Yeah in any other case it's Hiccup 'would die for a cause/person' and Astrid 'would kill for cause/person' but when it comes to each other? Hiccup has canonically been ready to kill for Astrid, as in blast-a-man-to-bits with Toothless and let a nearly extinct dragon be slaughtered. And whenever Hiccup is in danger and Astrid is there she's the one who pushes him out of the way, endangering herself. Like with the Death Song, the Light Fury, girl was ready to sacrifice herself for the young chief.

I just think it's cool how much these two love each other they're willing to go farther than they ever would in any other occasion.

Pretty sure all the gods low key bribe Hades and Thanatos to leave Annabeth Chase alone, because they know that she’s 99% of Percy’s impulse control and he would burn down the world if she died

Things Percy Jackson remembers in Son of Neptune:

If you really think about it, The Titan's Curse is basically Crooked Kingdom had it been written in Kaz's first person POV. Y'know like, "I know we have this really important life-or-death mission ahead of us, but my unofficial girlfriend was taken right before my eyes and all I care about is getting her back", and I think that's beautiful-

Shoutout Percy Jackson who got amnesia from a goddess and only remembered his girlfriend’s name and that he despised Ares. That’s true love and true hatred there <3

percy defending annabeth but the level of severity gets worse with time 🫶🏼

please excuse the horridly drawn CHB logo

Insp. by the Watch Party video ( around 12:00 )

i cannot overstate how formative the scene where percy chooses to fall into tartarus with annabeth was to my taste in fictional romance as a teenager

here's hoping people never stop asking

fun fact! when you say jokes or laugh with someone, your heartbeats synchronise! and it happens even if you're not physically close to one another!!

do you think this is why angels welcome us with song?

SPECIAL PLACE IN HELL FOR CALYPSO CURSING ANNABETH OVER A 14YO BOY THAT LEFT HER TO

S A V E T H E W O R L D

Percy straight up grabs Annabeth’s arm when she tries to get on the gold throne and sacrifice herself. He was not having it at all.

i don't think some of y'all understand how significant it is that annabeth chase, the leading lady in an IP/brand as big as percy jackson, is played by a black girl. she is not some sidekick or comic relief. THEE annabeth chase, one of the wisest, intelligent, brave demigods and love of percy jackson's life, is played by a BLACK GIRL!!

but you're so hateful and caught up with book inaccuracies and changes that you can't even offer a sliver of hope for things to improve in continuing seasons, and instead immediately resort to wishing the show gets cancelled because they didn't do that specific thing in that specific scene in the books. makes me think there might be another underlying reason as to why you want it to fail.

and before someone starts, this isn't to say you can't have criticism, but if you really love percy jackson, why wouldn't your hope be for things to get better?

"i hope this show gets cancelled" yeah girl fuck you

Rick Riordan said a lot of great things and asked important questions with the Percy Jackson books, but my favorite of them all is and always will be "what if you met your best friend when you were twelve years old and also btw she's your soulmate?" and i'll always love him for giving us that

orpheus and eurydice..

Sometimes we could all use a reminder. (source)

[A twitter thread reading, "Has anyone taught gen z not to feed the trolls? I feel like us millennials have failed them in this capacity. We were the stewards of the internet and we never told then them the big main rule"

"If someone is posting incendiary nonsense on the internet and you can feel yourself getting angry and wasting an hour of your limited time of this earth typing some SCATHING reply that you know in your heart they won't read: take a deep breath and simply don't engage."

"It's not worth it, it's never ever worth it. Block them and spend the time you'd otherwise have wasted …i don't know, fixing yourself a warm drink or petting a cat. Despite what they say a troll doesn't "win" when you block them- they win when you waste time and energy on them."

"I feel Don't Feed the Trolls was a core tenet of the internet until platforms realized they could serve more ads to people engaged in lengthy debates. Each time you ignore and block someone spouting some bad-faith bullshit imagine yourself stealing a dollar from elon's pocket."]

       “I almost didn't recognize her. She was wearing a sleeveless silk dress like C.C.'s, only white. Her hair was newly washed and combed and braided with gold. Worst of all, she was wearing makeup, which I never thought Annabeth would be caught dead in. I mean, she looked good. Really good. I probably would've been tongue-tied if I could've said anything except reet, reet, reet. But there was also something totally wrong about it. It just wasn't Annabeth.

       She looked around the room and frowned. ‘Where's Percy?’

       I squealed up a storm, but she didn't seem to hear me.”

~Percy Jackson, SoM ch. 12

“no matter how badly you think you’re doing it, someone else has done it a lot worse and been fine” is applicable to a wide, wide range of things and i say it to myself all the time

"bigger idiots than me have done it" is a phrase I live by

“Not to change the subject, but I’m gonna.”

Percy Jackson and his inability to talk about his feelings concerning Annabeth has started, let’s all take a moment to celebrate and also prepare for five years of obliviousness
