#but god the amount of emphasis Annabeth puts on Seaweed Brain drives me insane

I absolutely love how casual the Seaweed Brain name drop was! It would have been so easy to make it a big moment, or to have Leah put emphasis on it, but no. Because to us it's huge, but to the characters it doesn't mean anything yet. It was perfect.

#i just think about it compared to like #the MCU or recent star wars stuff #which will name drop just to get the audience excited even if it doesn't make sense for the characters to care #and it makes me really happy that they just slid Seaweed Brain in to the middle of a sentence with 0 fan fair #percy jackson #percy jackon and the olympians #percy jackson disney+ #pjo series #pjo #annabeth chase #seaweed brain #pjo tv show #especially compared to the way they do it in the musical #don't get me wrong I ADORE the musical #but god the amount of emphasis Annabeth puts on Seaweed Brain drives me insane
