What A Weird Little Guy Hephaestus Is For Making An Amusement Park With Traps And Have The Tunnel Of

What a weird little guy Hephaestus is for making an amusement park with traps and have the tunnel of love be a trauma dump about his rejection while playing an 90s pop song in the background. Like all of those were deliberate choices made by him.

The Percy Jackson series is a giant screw you from teens to adults who treat them like shit telling them to not question orders and do as they say without explanation or consent, I find it so important to have in 2024 and I'm genuinely happy that kids have this show

The way percy just got up in the literal god of war’s face and tried to threaten him, in all his five foot-one preteen rage. Iconic behavior. But I think, on a more serious note, that that’s something the show is not just touching on, but exploring deeply. Percy’s anger.

There are a lot of moments in the book where you can see he’s angry. At the gods, at his shitty life, the situations he’s been put in repeatedly because the gods simply don’t care. But in the show, he’s so much more pissed all the time. He realizes the ways he’s been wronged, how unfair everything is for demigods. He points it out constantly to Grover and Annabeth, the unjustness they face, the way they’re forced to comply in a messed up system, at the whims of a messed up family. And he wants vengeance, he wants to fight Ares, the first god they come across. He’s a week in, and he’s done.

The comparison they’re drawing between him and Luke, and how alike they truly are in their ideals, is so fascinating. We see that Percy definitely could have ended up like Luke, maybe in an alternate universe.
