I have been posting a lot today but i love the headcanon of gender fluid percy. i might just be projecting on to them, but i still love it.

lol one time i played a song about kissing girls and internalized homophobia in front of my dad before i came out and he didn’t even realize it. it just went over his head.

I think this has already been said but why do people don’t like frazel because of an age gap but then ships percabeth which is abusive and toxic? I don’t really have an opinion on frazel so don’t come after me, i just don’t understand some people.

so I got into grad school today with my shitty 2.8 gpa and the moral of the story is reblog those good luck posts for the love of god

it’s not that i don’t think percabeth would work, they would, it’s just that rick wrote it in a way that fucked it up. i am mostly fine with their relationship in percy jackson and the olympians, but heroes of olympus books were written horribly. i’m going to put this under a cut so people who don’t want to read it don’t have to.

in heroes of olympus, percy’s personality was just being in love with annabeth. he was suddenly thinking about having a family with her at 17 and in the middle of a war. and the judo flip?!?!? if percy did that to annabeth everyone would call it abuse but because it was annabeth, a girl, who did it, no one cared and thought it was really romantic. the fact that annabeth probably knew about his ex-stepfathers abuse and still did it makes it worse!!! also, it feels like she controls him a lot and keeps him on a short leash when there shouldn’t be a leash at all. she also constantly made jokes about how he wasn’t smart

onto percy jackson and the olympians. in this, i feel their relationship wasn’t as toxic as it was in heroes of olympus. but the battle of the labyrinth book really irked me though because of the way annabeth was treating rachael just because she was percy’s friend. after everything percy’s been through, i think that he deserves on friend from the mortal world to keep him grounded but because annabeth had a crush on him, she kinda fucked it up. also the name seaweed brain, percy was emotionally abused by gabe and constantly told he wasn’t smart. that nickname is definitely not it.

that being said, i think if rick actually knew how to write a healthy relationship, i would like percabeth but right now i don’t.

EDIT: i forgot to add that annabeth’s childhood trauma does not excuse any of this behavior. if you want to be in a healthy relationship with someone, you have to see that trauma and deal with it (perferably with a therapist) so you don’t hurt someone that you like/love
