The Star Wars Original Trilogy is peak fiction because they took a fairy tale and set it in space, then they gave the princess in distress a GUN. But even better they gave her a sharp tongue and the power of revolution. They made the ādragonā a depressed cyborg father with asthma who doesnāt understand his own emotions and does murders because of it. And they made the knight a blond Barbie boy who attempts to solve problems with the power of love like heās Sailor Moon or something.
And then they said, āoh yeah theyāre all related btw. All the galaxyās problems are this one familyās fault. Hope this helps šā

reminder that satyrs can canonically read emotions. meaning that grover probably read annabeth's crush on percy when she was 12. meaning that percy probably had feelings for annabeth but didn't realize them for a while but grover knew. meaning that grover watched percabeth pine about each other for 4yrs.

The Mark of Athena except, instead of it being a coin given to Annabeth by Athena/Minerva, itās a tattoo burned onto her forearm.Ā Hear me out.
The tattoo has a tribal design of an owl, an olive branch, and the Greek letters A.Ī.E on it. And it's carved and burnt onto her skin. It glows red when Annabethās alone on her quest, and it would slightly hurt as the red glow would also be burning on her skin. It would look like a regular tattoo on her arm when itās not glowing.
Their encounter wouldāve been like:
Athena grabbed Annabethās right arm and dugged her nails onto them causing a burning sensation surging through her arm. āFollow the Mark of Athena,ā She said. āAvenge me.ā
āMomā¦ā Annabeth winced in pain as Athenaās nails dugged deeper into her skin. āWhat are you talking about? What mark?ā
Then she saw the mark Athena meant. Her mother was placing the mark on her. On her skin, she saw a drawing of an owl, an olive branch and the greek letters, A.Ī.E. It looked like it was carved and burnt onto her skin.
āAvenge me or leave me.ā Athena had said.
Annabeth had to pull herself from her motherās grasp and ran without looking back.
She had tried scrubbing and washing it off, but to no avail. And ever since that day with Athena/Minerva at Grand Central, she only wore long-sleeved shirts to hide the mark on her forearm, as it would only remind her of her last encounter with her mother.
She didnāt tell anyone about it. Not the Head Counselors, or her siblings, not Jason, Piper, and Leoļ¼her crewmates in the Argo II before sailing for New Rome, and not even Chiron.
Annabeth tugged her shirt's sleeve when Ella the harpy recited the prophecy concerning the Mark of Athena fearing anyone will know about it. Wisdomās daughter walks alone, the Mark of Athena burns through Romeā¦
She discovered that the mark on her arm glowed a fiery red while she was at Fort Sumter in Charleston. There was also a mark of Athena that glowed on the walls when she became trap inside a dark room with the mark burning spiders away.
No one else knew about it until Piper asked her what the Mark of Athena was while the seven of them were in a meeting in the Argo II's mess hall. She pulls out her sleeve and shows it to the rest of the seven. Some of them were fascinated by it to the point where Leo says itās dope and I want one!Ā Others, particularly Hazel and Percy recognizes that it looked like it was burnt on her skin.
After the 2nd Giant War, the tattoo faded and now permanently looked like a wine-stain birthmark after the Athena Parthenos was returned to the Greeks and placed on Half-Blood Hill.
Her Dad, Frederick freaked out when he saw the birthmark-esque tattoo, and her cousin, Magnus basically snorted and said, Your mom placed a mark on you? Oh, my gods, Couz, what did you do?
So, yeah, just a thought. š

My Thoughts on Ep.06 - We Take a Zebra to Vegas, A rant (SPOILERS AHEAD!)
Actual Iris-messaging on screen! Good way to start the episode.
Yes, toss the drachma, SEAWEED BRAIN!
If you want the godsā attention, you have to pay for it. Eh, not surprised since itās kinda how children have to do to get their parentsā attention these days.
Wtf is Luke Castellan doing in Chironās office?
We know who stole the bolt. (Book-readers, we know who stole the bolt!)
*Calm expression* How do you know? and not *gasp* Really? Who is it? Very sus. š¤
I do have a love-hate relationship with Clarisse La Rue as a character, but accusing her as the lightning thief? OH, HELL NO!
This convo:
Luke: Guys, what is this?
Percy and Annabeth: What?
Luke: When did you turn into an old married couple?
Percy and Annabeth:
Everyone in the fandom:
Luke channeling his big brother energy by teasing Annabeth, his little sister, to a boy her age. Annabethās going through that older-sibling-embarrassing-you-in-front-of-your-crushĀ stage. Itās just typical sibling stuff.
Annabeth, externally: *pokerface*; Annabeth, internally: STOP EMBARRASSING ME!
Confirmed: Luke ships Percabeth. š„°
Percy changing the subject because heās also embarrassed.
Annabeth cuts off the connection before Percy can mention Hermes and tells him Luke and his dad arenāt on good terms.
Grover just figured out that the truck is driven by animal traffickers and insists that they free the animals is absolute peak characterization.
Theyāre like artists.Ā Proceeds to release the animals in the middle of traffic.
How that convo basically went:
Percy: Idk about this, man.
Grover: Oh, theyāll be fine. I gave them the satyrās blessing so theyāll be able to reach the wilderness safely.
Percy: Dude, I meant for these people.
Grover: Oh, uh, itās fine. These people destroyed nature so idgaf about them. But the animals are fine, so letās go!
Percy: So, which hotel is the Lotus Casino? It could be any building-
Annabeth: Duh! Obviously, itās the one with the giant lotus blossom on it.
Percy: Seriously?
3 minors walking into a Casino hotel. Totally normal and not suspicious at all.
Dua Lipaās Levitating instead of Lady Gagaās Pokerface. I aināt even mad.
WISE GIRL! WISE GIRL! WISE GIRL! HE CALLED HER WISE GIRL! šš„°
Of course, Annabeth insists Percy goes with her. Percabeth! š
Annabeth tells Percy about May Castellan, Lukeās Mom. Itās kinda early to know about this, but Iām not complaining. It just justifies Lukeās resentment of Hermes in the show.
Grover: *finds Augustus, a fellow Satyr* *Forgets everything*
Please tell me someone else heard some kid calling out BIANCA in the background. It's not just me, right? Please tell me it's the di Angelo siblings in the Lotus Casino. UNCLE RICK, WE NEED ANSWERS!
Percy explaining his nightmares and asks if they are real.
How that convo went:
Annabeth: Hmm, idk
Percy: How do you not know?
Annabeth: I may be smart but there are things I donāt know.
Percy: Wtf does that make me then?
Hermes/Alexander Hamilton not throwing away his shot. How does a bastard, son of a god and a Pleiad. Grow up to be a master trickster, according to Homerās Illiadā¦
In Vegas you can be a new man...apparently, not.
Hermes: Iām not doing this again. Youāre on your own, kids. Bye!
Annabeth: Weāre friends of Lukeās.
Hermes: *surprise pikachu face* Damn it, letās talk.
Hermes being an epitome of another crappy absent godly parent. Not surprised.
Annabeth doing what probably Luke taught her to do:
Annabeth: So I stole Hermesā keys.
Percy: You what?
Annabeth: I turned invisible and picked his pocket.
Percy: You stole from the god of thieves?
Annabeth: Yes, Iām multi-talented. Lol
Percy: *lowkey falls in love*
The lotus fruit being pumped into the air is something new.
Percy: Grover got really old. š¤£
Percy and Annabeth chases Augustus around while Groverās playing VR games.
Grover forgetting things because he was alone, while Percy and Annabeth remember because they have each other. PERCABETH!
Grover acting all carefree like a dentist just sedated him with nitrous oxide, while Percy and Annabeth are frantically looking for Hermesā car will never be not funny.
TO THE DUMB KIDS. Yep, that note is for you.
Percy: So, whoās driving?
Percy and Annabeth turning to Grover because heās the adult.
Grover: *still high* Idk man. Idk what we're even doing here.
Percy: Ok, Iāll do it. How hard can it be. If I killed the Minotaur, I can drive a cab.
Percy: How hard could this be? Proceeds to hit the car on several columns.
Percy getting angry because another car didnāt slow down and nearly hit them, then slamming the horn. Bruh, youāre inner New Yorker is showing and Iām here for it.
This scene: ššš
Me, watching this scene:
Percy and Annabeth smiling at each other then realizing the carās scraping the wall. This shit cracked me up.
The truck nearly hitting them gave me a mini-heart attack. Good thing theyāre in Hermesā cab.
Percy half-nervous and half-excited to finally meet his Dad only to find a Nereid instead, giving him 4 teleportation pearls as a gift.
The title implying they took a Zebra to Vegas but we see no zebra? Come on! Anyway, that was a good episode. Can't wait for the Percy vs Ares showdown next week.

My thoughts on Ep.5 - A God Buys Us Cheeseburgers, A rant (Spoilers Ahead!)
First of all, the chaos with what happened in the Arch was expected, but Annabeth seeing the Fates was not expected.
Annabeth insisting that Percy is alive, and went to find him near the water.
Percy casually greeting them hi. Like he wasnāt stung by the Chimera and fell off the St. Louis Arch. This will never be not funny.
Annabeth rushing to hug Percy and didnāt even care that he was soaked.
Me, internally: PERCABETH! PERCABETH! PERCABETH! šš
Percy just now realizing that a god could not have stolen the master bolt and might have been helped by someone. Grover and Annabeth looking at him like, seriously?
This convo:
Percy: Why are you being weird with me again? I thought weāre not doing that anymore.
Annabeth: Iām not being weird.
Percy: Yes, you are. Youāve been weird since we left the Arch.
Again, thatās their relationship.
Percy assuming itās because of the hug. And Annabeth being like, No idiot I saw the Fates! Percy, honey, youāre the one being weird about it.
At this point, Imma give Grover some popcorn while he watches them argue.
Biker Ares casually asking 3 kids if they need help. Definitely not sus.
Percy, Annabeth, and Grover hiding behind the road barrier like, uh, no, weāre good. Idk, but thatās funny to me.
Ares snorting and saying theyāre behind schedule and offering to help his little cousin.
Ares immediately recognizing Annabeth as Athenaās kid. Ares being like, Omfg she sounds just like my sister. Thatās definitely her kid.
So a biker offering to help 3 minors in the middle of nowhere and offering them food. In other peopleās perspective, thatās definitely sus.
Ares being a Twitter Troll is something I never knew I need.
Percy and Annabeth being so unimpressed with Ares was so funny. Like,Ā so this is the god of war? Really?
Gabe painting Percy as a fugitive, and Percy being pissed about it. Not surprised.
Ares being pumped that thereās a war coming.
Percy and Annabeth fucking ready to fight Ares, and Groverās just there like,Ā letās all calm down.
You left your sheild? Like, forgot it on a merry-go-round? Girl, youāre talking to a god.
Negotiating with Ares 101:
Ares: Okay, the satyr stays here while you two get my shield.
Percy and Annabeth: No!
Grover: Okay, sure.
Percy and Annabeth: wtf
The Waterland giving off steampunk/horror movie vibes is something Iām here for.
Percy making plans to take Annabeth to see a movie in the middle of their death quest just because she admitted to never having seen one is just so sweet. PERCABETH!š
Annabeth being fascinated by Hephaestusā engineering.
Groverās therapy session with Ares to get more info is also something I never knew I needed.
The f*cking Thrill Ride Oā Love! ITāS HAPPENING!
Book fans rn:
Annabeth: Donāt you even try to tell me not to be weird about this.
Percy: I didnāt say anything.
Annabeth: I can feel you thinking it.
Oh, my babies. PERCABETH! š
Percy calling the Thrill Ride Oā Love a ghost ride is something I agree on.
The awkward silence while they ride the rowboat though, and then suddenly you hear, WHAT IS LOVE? BABY DONāT HURT ME...Ā That shit cracked me up.
The light projections in the tunnel telling Hephaestusā story.
The ride turning into a horror boat ride to a whitewater rafting ride was so unexpected. Iād pay to see that kind of boat ride rather than an actual tunnel-of-love ride.
Them having to jump and Percy unknowingly pulling Annabeth to safety with his water superpowers. Heās a waterbender and he doesnāt know it. LOL
Ares, the literal god of war, just ranting off to a random satyr he found in the middle of nowhere about his overachiever sister and her feathered pet will never be not funny.
Annabeth not hesitating to sit on the chair, and Percy stopping her.
SEAWEED BRAIN! SEAWEED BRAIN! SEAWEED BRAIN! SHE SAID THE THING! THIS IS NOT A DRILL!
Book fans:
[Spoiler] To non-book-readers, that's her nickname for him.
Percabeth arguing about a life/death decision. This is their relationship.
Percy giving Annabeth Riptide. He trusts her. Aww. š
Percy having to sit on the chair, while Annabeth gets the shield.
Annabeth nearly backing out at the last second, while Percy assures her that heās okay while trying not to cry.
Annabeth ignoring the shield then immediately and desperately tries to free Percy.
Annabeth bargaining with Hephaestus. Maybe, I was that way once, but I donāt wanna be that way anymore. I wonāt be like all of you.
Hephaestus releasing Percy was definitely his way of saying, Girl, same. Youāre a good kid. Imma make sure youāre Mom knows that.
THIS PIC! THIS IS HISTORICAL RIGHT HERE! GO BACK TO THIS POST AFTER THIS SHOW HAS SEVERAL SEASONS AND MOUNT ST. HELENS ERUPTS. *wink-wink
Percy and Annabeth going back to the diner with the shield casually, and then like, we got your shield, now where tf is our ride?
Aresā ride: The Kindness Internation truck a.k.a. illegal animals smuggling van.
Thank you for the emotional abuse and the cheeseburgers and the ride! ~ Grover Underwood. Iconic!
Grover telling Percy and Annabeth about his therapy session with Ares: I know who stole the master bolt!
Of course, itās a cliffhanger. But nothing will beat the HoO:MoA one.
Bruh, the amount of Percabeth content in this episode is just *chefās kiss*. Itās all coming together. I canāt even fathom how much of an emotional rollercoaster I was watching this episode. It just keeps getting better and better! š

My thoughts on Ep. 4 - I Plunge to My Death, A rant
First off, Sally and baby Percy scene was so cute. I swear to god, no one will ever top Sally Jackson for being the best mortal parent in the series.
That Percabeth bonding scene in the train. Bruh, I cannot wait for the Kindness International truck and Waterland scenes.
Annabeth opening up about her Dad and Percy utterly shocked that not all mortal parents are like his Mom.
Frederickās college ring on Annabethās necklace. To non book-readers, yes, that's her Dad's name.
Annabeth having to earn Thaliaās respect.
Luke caring for Annabeth right away just makes it more gut-wrenching and heart-breaking with what heās about to do. (SPOILER ALERT) āFamily, Luke. You promised.ā
Grover being super grouchy when he doesnāt get enough sleep. And as someone in their twenties, I totally could relate to him.
This convo:
Percy : Can I ask a dumb question?
Annabeth: It's like you need me to make fun of you.
That's it, that's their relationship.
Mentioning the god of the wild, Pan, and that there are searchers for him.
How that convo basically went:
Train Cop: I donāt think you wanna take that tone with me, little girl.
Annabeth: EXFUCKINGCUSE ME?
Grover: Annabeth, no-!
Echidna calling the cops on 3 minors, just screams typical Karen behavior.
The St. Louis Arch being an actual temple of Athena is a nice change from Annabeth just wanting to go sightseeing.
This convo:
Percy: You've done more for me in the past few days than my father has done in my entire life. If I had to stick with someone, I-
Annabeth: Careful, I think you were about to call me a friend.
Percy: *stumbles because of the poison from the stinger*
Annabeth: *catches him*
Again, thatās their relationship.
Annabeth and Grover splashing water at Percy at a fountain when thereās a big-ass river nearby. Idk, but I find that funny.
Athena letting Echidna and the Chimera into the Arch because it wounded her pride? OH, HELL NO!
Athenaās Logic: Punish her devotee because someone close to them did something that wounded her pride. Medusa=Poseidon; Annabeth=Percy. She didnāt even gave a f*ck that the devotee in question is her own daughter. WTF, ATHENA!
I always thought Zeus has the crown for being the deadbeat absent godly parent, but Athena is slowly giving him a run for his money.
Annabeth deciding to sacrifice herself so Percy and Grover can continue the quest. WTF!
Percy tricking Annabeth into taking the final stand himself. Dude, your fatal flaw is showing.
Annabeth having to deal with a forbidden child sacrificing themselves for her safety AGAIN (With Thalia, and now Percy). Girl must be traumatized.
Grover having to go through it again as well.
The Chimera being terrifying than how non clear-sighted mortals see it.
Poseidon āalways been here/so hard for me to stand backā Daddy to the rescue.
This:
Percy: *gets stuck underwater*
Nereid: Itās okay. You father sent me-
Percy: Oh, hell no! *tries to swim harder*
Percy only now realizing he can breath underwater. Like, of course, he can. He's Poseidon's kid.
We're only in Episode 4 and it's already so good. Can't wait for the episode 5.
