Being a pjo stan should be a protected class of minorities. Protected from Rick himself.

aw, coffee
i think a reyna solo series where she like rises to praetor and is like “alright everyone thanks for electing me i’m just gonna reform the shit out of this” & starts like making the legion less awful and not allowing child soldiers in anymore, would be cool. so no one has to go through what she went through again :(
YES RETWEET………
[image description: a digital drawing of reyna, a teenager with light brown skin and dark brown hair in a braid wearing gold armour, holding a smoothie in one hand and a variety of signs in her other that say “reform legislation”, “no kids in the f*cking army”, and “band child soldiers. it is captioned “[offscreen] Uhhh… whatcha got there, Reyna?” at the top, at the bottom Reyna replies “A Smoothie.”]
More >:)
the post abt sadie wearing airpods has lived in my head rent free since i first saw it (sadie’s shirt is inspired by this)
[ID: three digitally drawn images that feature carter and sadie kane. the first image is carter yelling, “are you even listening to me?” with a hand raised, looking frustrated. the second image is of sadie flipping her hair back, asking, “did you say something?” with her eyes closed. the third image is zoomed in on sadie’s face. her hair is pushed behind her ear, revealing a glittering airpod. a speech bubble coming from off-screen reads the word “stop,” which is underlined. carter has dark brown skin, short dark brown curly hair, and brown eyes. he’s wearing an unbuttoned blue flannel shirt and a grey t-shirt underneath. sadie has light brown skin, curly brown hair streaked with blue, and dark blue eyes. she’s wearing a brown leather jacket, her tyet amulet, and a black t-shirt that reads “i eat oil paintings” with a minimalist drawing of a paintbrush and a paint palette underneath of the text.

i did all the math for nico's pjo timeline for rick and he should pay me. rick apparently said that nico's birthdate is (undecidedly) january 28th of 1924, but in house of hades, nico states that he, bianca and maria visited diocletian's private estate when he was 6 years old, around 1938, putting his birth year around 1932 rather than 1924. the oath of the big three was formed after the end of world war 2, in 1945, which hades agreed to despite having two underage children left alive. zeus attempted to kill bianca and nico in response, which resulted in the death of maria, and hades then hid bianca and nico in the lotus hotel and casino. if nico was born in 1932, he would have been 13 in 1945, and if he'd been born in 1924, he would have been 21. the titans curse takes place in 2007, 2 years before the 2009 battle of manhatten, meaning nico and bianca were in the lotus hotel and casino for roughly 60 years, not 70 years, and for nico to have been 10 years old in the titan's curse, his birthdate would have had to have been january 28th of 1935. in conclusion, rick riordan doesn't fact check or reference his own work, and he very much so can't do math.
i mean,, we all know that people good with english are terrible in math and the other way around,,
nah i'm good at english and math, he's a professional author with an editor and a huge publisher behind him, this is just lazy
that feel when you find out your demigod son can clean 100 tons of horse poop out of some random monster's stables but not clean his room
remember me love, when i’m reborn as the shrike to your sharp and glorious thorn.
Obviously I know ableism exists obviously I’m aware it’s not the biggest problem in pjo but it’s so written into the story you can’t remove it it’s in every narrative every character every plot point..
Also to be actively reminded of its existence even in this fantasy world like..growing up loving this series but knowing by the nature of the books by the thing said and unsaid, everything implied that like this isn’t for you, you can’t exist here you can’t even play pretend because chb doesn’t have cr*pples it has magic eugenics instead, kids who heal differently, kids who unlike you don’t scar and the ones that do are evil? It hurts man it does like I’m an adult I’m fine but there’s that lil 10 kid in me that knows I’m not going to chb, that knows I’m not going to hogwarts, that wonders why every fantasy doesn’t include kids like me-wonders of our absence is what makes it better for everyone else
Edit * was asked yes this is ok to rb
ready for another quest?
These are from January 2019, I’ve been meaning to post them since then, but I had no idea how to go about assembling them since there’s so many. I thought I’d just start off with the first 3 I did and see if you guys want me to post the rest of them. Anyway I came up with the idea of “what if PJO were an RPG game” and ran with it. Keep in mind that these designs are a year and half old so they might not reflect how I draw the characters currently.
this has been sitting in on my desktop for too long which means I won’t work on it anymore so 🤷 alcmene….. 2!
the fact that i have NEVER drawn silena and beckendorf together is a crime they deserve the world
pjo fans when the official art said nico was ugly: 😠😤😡😭😰
pjo fans when the official art said percy was white: 🤩😍😘🤪😋
if you guys were capable of disregarding the official art back in 2014 then you’re capable of doing it now. stop adding irrelevant comments on fanartists’ posts because you can’t handle the idea of percy being anything but white.
nico addams 😌
