okay cool i see many of us are talking about the scene where annabeth gets rooted down in the fields of asphodel and we all wanna know what she regrets so much so here’s my two cents on what i thought it meant

the obvious answer is thalia, thinking that she could have saved her (even though she was seven. annabeth has always been an overachiever with impossibly high standards for herself we all know this). but i think it goes deeper than that. i think it’s about her worldview and relationship to the gods. let me explain.

annabeth has worked with the gods’ system for Years. she followed all the rules and fought for kleos and became head counselor at the age of TWELVE. she wants so badly to be recognized and seen by her mom, and i’m so glad she uses her yankees cap as often as she does because it really shows that she treasures this one gift from athena. and then percy shows up.

and he’s impertinent. and angry. and does not give a single shit about what the gods expect or want. openly shit-talks his father. and yet, when he’s in danger poseidon comes for him. meanwhile athena LET ECHIDNA INTO HER TEMPLE AND LEFT ANNABETH TO DIE DUE TO SOMEONE ELSE’S ACTIONS. and suddenly, annabeth feels all her efforts to be the perfect demigod daughter crumbling while percy ‘pay your fucking child support’ jackson gets not only acknowledgement but his father but aid for all three of them. she tells hephaestus as much: percy isn’t like the rest of them, he’s better than that. and she doesn’t want to be like them either. and think about it: that turns her Whole Worldview on its head

she never saw herself as deserving of her mother’s attention, even if she craved it. she believes love is transactional, and now she’s learning it doesn’t have to be. and that’s a Lot to process in such a short amount of time— realizing that all that time, effort, and energy, all those pieces of herself, that she gave to the gods were useless. that so much of her life was wasted on the gods’ fucked up cycle of neglect. it’s HARD to look back and realize “i deserved better,” and regret putting up with it all

it’s even harder to realize someone else deserved better. in the beginning. of the series, annabeth saw thalia’s fate as an honorable, even enviable, one. a hero’s fate. dying in battle, for glory, and having a god intervene in the moment of your death. i think she sees that very differently now. i think she realizes just how cruel zeus and the world were to thalia, and how fucked it was that she idolized thalia’s “hero’s fate”

and guess what! percy’s worldview only really started making an impression on her like . three days ago. she probably feels so much guilt on TOP of all this regret and anger, because it takes a long time to break out of mindsets like hers. she hasn’t deconstructed it all just yet, and in giving up her blind servitude to the gods and her mother, she’s probably struggling with the feeling that she’s not allowed to be angry, that she’s ungrateful, that she’s severely insulting them. i think this absolute tsunami of emotions is more than enough to bog her down in the fields of asphodel and would align with her character development as she starts seeing the gods for what they really are

(but what do i know, maybe this scene is just foreshadowing some crazy tv annabeth tragic backstory that we get to see later)

#I JUST HAVE A LOT OF FEELINGS OKAY #the way she tells percy ‘i trust your dad’ and you can FEEL her pain because you know she’s thinking of athena #and how she couldnt trust her mom #there’s LAYERS TO THIS OKAY #LIKE AN ONION #(is someone chopping onions in here bc my eyes are getting watery) #percy jackson and the olympians #percy jackson #pjo tv show #pjo spoilers #pjo tv spoilers

Does Geoffrey know he's into the dom/Sub play in the bedroom or is that something he also discovers during his building relationship with Marion?

It's actually Marion who first brings it up if the player chooses the relevant dialogue choice. Geoffrey knows who he is, but it's not something he's thought about before because he hasn't been into anybody in that way before.

I wanted D/S play to be a possibility that Geoff finds he's very into if Marion is as well, but it's not an immutable part of his nature and he's perfectly happy with a Marion who is more assertive in bed. In other words, nobody has to feel like Dom Geoff is canon or that Geoffrey would be unsatisfied in a more vanilla relationship.

He's still 100% going to take the initiative in bed because that part of him is rather well-defined. But he equally enjoys a Marion who wants to be dominated and one who meets him at his level or sexily challenges his authority.

I want Amir to sweep me off my feet 🥺🥺🥺🥺

(Truthfully and Genuinely, no act. See also: I want to love and cherish him and be his safe person and feel comfortable being honest and vulnerable with me. I want vanilla sex that makes us both cry. I want him to light up when he sees me across a room. I want him to gently sweep my hair up and tie it when I have his cock in my mouth I want to make coworkers jealous because my office is filled Great Gatsby style with my favorite flowers just because. I want to hear him talk for hours about art. I want him to hold me as I weep after watching some stupid Nicolas Sparks-esque movies because my heart is too tender. I want him to know love again and know he can love again even though it has to be terrifying after what he’s been through.)

Yanno just the normal stuff.

We are very normal here about passionate beautiful men who's heel clacks send everyone running in terror/awe/horny fervor. I love extrapolating on amirs relationships with his clients very much but I also love that his relationship with MC is totally different. He definitely wants something more comfortably intimate out of a relationship he's in just for the love of it. He doesn't feel safe around 99% percent of people and even after he knows them for a bit it's still very rare that he drops his walls or his mask and be his fully honest self. (Frankly, it's been a long time since he's been that person). So honestly emotional vanilla sex, goofy nick sparks movies that make you ugly cry... I mean that's a level of openness and trust amir hasn't felt in a long time and Frankly i think he probably thinks that's too good for him. But I also think he sees all the same appeal in that that you do.

#i love amir hes so complex #like an onion #the layers #thank you for asking! #amir #maybe spicy

Chief is a funny character. To me

He’ll put a gun to a man’s head and pull the trigger, then they’ll go to a bar and flirt with some hot guy for a little while, and then they’ll go back to just the most depressing flat you’ve ever seen and be just. An absolute piece of limp lettuce. Just the saddest guy on the block. Sleeps on the couch because he was so tired and doesn’t deserve the bed. And then they’ll go out and be a cocky bastard to the reporter trying to expose the criminal organisation he works for

I just found out: writing from the POV of Titus Drautos is hard.

That man got layers and digging through them is a real challenge. Fingers crossed that it won’t become an incoherent mess.

I really hate the "only the female character from her friend group hoards the brain cell" headcanons. not only is "the only woman in a group has common sense" trope overdone, but if you're in a friend group and you're about to do something stupid, then you wanna join in on the fun. no matter how intelligent you are.

smart female characters that will join her friends in their stupid escapades >>>>>>

I have come to the conclusion that the Targaryen family tree is not even a wreath, it is a hedge maze.

Diego used up all of his clothe privileges in season 1 that’s why he barely wears them in season 2 and 3

When the Seas Sigh and the Sands Weep: Update!

Hey! The next bit is on its way to you tomorrow!

It was completed ages ago, but I'm taking my damn time with publishing and fixing the post because that's what works best for me and how I plan to do things from now on.

I did not yet update my Masterlist on here, so if you're looking to reliably read the first chapter you can do so on Ao3!

My masterlist will be entirely reworked as it's getting big enough that I want to split it up.

I've been writing a little... which is better than previously when I was unable to write at all, so works are slowly being... worked... on.

xoxoxoxo,

Plex
