No, because it really does!! If we subscribe to the headcanon/theory about how Yakov and Lilia are like Victor's "adopted parents" then him being like that can also he explained by being mostly raised by a soviet era skater and soviet era ballerina!

Do you ever stop and do the math to realize that Victor was born before the fall of the soviet union?? Cause I just did and it's wild...

Like, he turned 28 in 2016, which means he was born on December 25th 1988.

The soviet union fell on December 26th 1991. The day after his third birthday....

This is wild to me, and idk why 😭😭

I don't think they would know WHY the person is saying that. Unless they see that as like a threat in demigod culture. Like "I will pray to my parent that you die" or some shit like that

@man-i-dunno you know how random people with come up and try to lray for dosabled people?

Please now imagine that idea but with a demigod. Like rhe level of offended theyd be*given that being disbked is a sign of glory.) If someone walked uo and went "ill.pray fir you to heal."

To be fair, usually to me and op people point out typos pretty nicely. For some reason, people are absolutely dipshits when they point out your typos... like... absolute monsters, some of them. I'm so sorry, you have to see those comments

not to be controversial bc I know this is like…not in line with shifting opinions on fanfic comment culture but if there’s a glaring typo in my work I will NOT be offended by pointing it out. if ao3 fucks up the formatting…I will also not be offended by having this pointed out…

‘looking forward to the next update’ and ‘I hope you update soon!’ are different vibes than a demand, and should be read in good faith because a reader is finding their way to tell you how much they love it. I will not be mad at this.

‘I don’t usually like this ship but this fic made me feel something’ is also incredibly high praise. I’m not going to get mad at this.

even ‘I love this fic but I’m curious about why you made [x] choice’ is just another way a reader is engaging in and putting thought into your work.

I just feel like a lot of authors take any comment that’s not perfectly articulated glowing praise in the exact manner they’re hoping to receive it in bad faith.

fic engagement has been dropping across the board over the last several years, and yes it’s frustrating but it isn’t as though I can’t see how it happens. comment anxiety can be a real thing. the last thing anyone wants to do is offend an author they love, and that means sometimes people default to silence.

idk where I’m going with this I guess aside from saying unless a comment is outright attacking me I’m never going to get mad at it, and I think a lot of authors should feel the same way. ESPECIALLY TYPOS PLZ GOD POINT OUT MY TYPOS.

I know he did Hercules quest cause his dad gave it to him, he stole the lightning bolt and the helm(I think) (honestly, power move. Thief of the millenia), I know he tried to kill percy and that he joins kronos after being plagued by his voice in his sleep convincing him to turn against the Gods.

I know something bad will happen to him in the end, but idk what yet. My vibes are saying a fate worse than death but Idk exactly what

@princess-from-another-galaxy

Could i get a run down[explantion] of what you know of luke castellan's stoey so far?

Anting to make aure i dont spoil things for you and trying ro fifure outt whst things to tag you in and what not to when it comes ro my dsmigod culture post

[princess-from-another-galaxy]

Sounds like a cute outfit!! Nothing like what we see Annabeth wear in the show

I was rereading cotg and noticed something

...Annabeth was wearing cargo pants, a tank top, her backpack, and a pair of running shoes...

It's true guys, Annabeth wears things other than chb shirt

I can die happily now

[princess-from-another-galaxy]

Oh, yeah, definitely. Annabeth the biggest culprit, but several demigods did it, like... Luke was the one raising those kids

Annabeth: It just doesn’t make sense! Malcolm, the ultimate sibling: It would if you were smarter Annabeth, clawing at him: you take that back Malcolm: NO Annabeth: BASTARD Malcolm: I KNOW YOU ARE BUT WHAT AM I Annabeth: ALSO A FUCKING BASTARD YOU DICKWAD Connor and Percy, eating popcorn: Percy: do we stop them? Connor: not until they bring ou-- Connor: there we go Connor: NO WEAPONS

[princess-from-another-galaxy]

Maybe not, and she subconsciously knew it, so she only used when Luke wasn't around even tho she didn't really know it was offensive

Okay i know demigods brains are hardwired for ancisnt greek..but all languages have slang thst eveokves from the original language and bdcomes sort of its own thing.(i dont know what the french hsve going on eith french slang but if any french speskers would be so kind as to direct me to some respurces futher explaining that because ive hesrd it kmnrioned 3 times now and im confused. But i dont speak frenchaside from being ale to cross reference with the little spanish i do know. I belive its called verlan? )

So there are srill going to be times where a demigod hears an ancient gteek word and doesn't auromatically know what it means. I think some are borrowed from latin.

I maintain my headcanon theres some wkrd to request someone infodump.

I don't know what otber slang there might be? I really am unclear as to how exactly slang develops

It was just funny and cute, why make it sad???? 😭😭😭

I mean.... puppets are objectively creepy ngl

Okay so apollo is the god of truth.

I dont know of its a fear or just a rage thing but at least one apollo kid despises pinnochio eith such a vengeance it turns into a hatred/fesr of all puppets bevause of the corruption of their fsthesrs domain feels like a horror film to themm[if its a fesr thing]

Or its a *that is nkt hoe habing to tell the truth all the time works* hatred if its a sie effect of the demigod nature that they cant lie at all or very well.

at least once this keads to an aefument avout if pinnochio is good art or not and everyone just knows to leave the apollo kods alome when they start rapid fire debating in ancient greek about "good art."

Luke said it so often that for a long time she didn't even know there was a non offensive word

Ohhhh, I didn't know that!!! The fact that morbius is actually a pretty shitty movie makes it even better ngl 😂😂

"What was *that*" Ella complained. The movie not at all what she had exoected.

"Neber seen a suoerhoe movie before?" Right. Mortal weren't demigods. They had their own world. Even if Ella didn't understand it. She had rold herself she would try. She really missed camp. The apollo kods made better movies. And ancient greem captions were on all of them. Espcially the ones that weren't already in ancient greek. she had spent bakf the movie translatin words she didn't recgonize. Or trying to. And the othrr half wondering if she had misheard the name kf the movie.

"That movie was not a romantic comdy." Her mortal friend laughed.

"Why did you think it was?"

"Because thats a thing you call your..." what was the word in englosh again? Amare? No thst was latin! And not even the word she was going for. "Love friend." Close enough? Maybe.

"Partner?"

"That! It means adventurer. Love or baby or honey in emglish i guess?"

"That's kind of cute." Her friend knew how much demigods valued glory and bravwry. Even if she didnt kno anything about the mythical world being real. "Eseoially from what youve told me about it. "So, have an adventurer in your lofe?"

Ella hoped that meant her friend was flirtinf eitb her. She had no coue how mortals flirted.

[princess-from-another-galaxy]

😭😭😭

i have spoken a *lot* about how important Luke’s relationship to his siblings is to his character. How much Luke really does love them. And as much as i believe that he loves them

He still abandoned them

He let them down, broke promises, scarred them and then left them with two kids who are both canonically Percy’s age and younger in charge.

And as much as we love Conner and Travis they shouldn’t have had to be running the largest cabin by themselves especially when that cabin—who is family—just went through a massive trauma because of Luke.

Not to mention what Luke did to their reputations. He made the cabin that welcomes in the unclaimed and the minor demigods untrustworthy, even 4 years after he left Travis and Conner and the rest of Hermes cabin are still being accused of being traitors.

Luke loved Annabeth, he loved Thalia, he loved the kids he took care of in Hermes. He loved them enough to leave to make what he thought would be a better life for them. But he didn’t love them enough to stay.

He had to choose between Family and Glory. And Glory wins everytime

[princess-from-another-galaxy]

He just wants a better life for demigods!!!! Is that too much to ask for?!?!? 😭😭

"luke's a master manipulator, he had everyone thinking he was on their side--" shit UP fam he's a master manipuator because he IS on their side he cares SO MUCH about all the demigod kids he truly believes this is the best thing for them this is a METHODOLOGICAL CONFLICT

[princess-from-another-galaxy]

Ohhhhh, I like that!!

So, someone told me about New Rome awhile ago, and I just saw a post talking about what would happen if the Greeks also built a city. And they were talking about it being called New Athens (or New Sparta).

And like.... wouldn't New Delphi make more sense????? The Oracle of Delphi lives at camp. The strawberries company is called Delphi something. Apollo literally has his own book series.

If Rick does make the Greeks create a city like New Rome (which I think he should), then I think it should be called New Delphi.

[princess-from-another-galaxy]

What was the movie title??? That would work for a super hero movie AND demigods term of endearment
