Hades offering them something to eat literally killed me. Hades is like "the smart one's gone" and immediately tried to keep them there forever.

Something I think about a lot is how Rick Riordan very rarely uses "girlfriend/boyfriend" to refer to Percy and Annabeth within their perspectives. They're so intertwined, even Annabeth says in hoh that the word boyfriend isn't strong enough, because Percy was a part of her. They are a singular soul, too wrapped around each others' fates that regular labels are far too weak for them. But, Rick Riordan uses "boyfriend" a lot in Nico and Wills perspectives, not because they love each other less than percabeth, but to show how much the word means to them. Nico uses it any chance he gets- "his boyfriend," "he actually had a boyfriend," because Nico has never been able to say that before. Their struggle with their queer identities mixed with Nico's catholic guilt and chronic everyone-hates-me disease makes the fact that he has someone to call his actual boyfriend so much more important to his character development.

I hadn’t drawn the house of hades boys in years! Curse me! This isn’t exactly a remake of an old painting but it’s in the vibe of how I used to draw them all the time. Poetic and stealing kisses

why is hades better?
I love how hades is supposed to embody death and all the negative things in the world and is supposed to be this evil monster who tortures heroes and is a overall weird gloomy underworld dude who is surrounded by death. But people prefer him over zeus and poseidon for one simple reason :
he is loyal to his wife and he loves her.

The fact that Percy said if something happens to Annabeth he'd march in Hades's palace to bring her back AND then he jumped into, Tartarus, the darkest pit of hell when she fell.
He kept his word, he followed her to the House of Hades, like he said he would.
AND HE PARALLELED HIS RELATIONSHIP AND LOVE FOR ANNABETH TO ORPHEUS AND EURYDICE.
Shut up, don't talk to me, he's so in love with her. I'm emotional.
