Hermes: Hey, can you teach me to play the trumpet?
Apollo: Why?
Hermes: Because I want to follow Zeus around and annoy him with it.
Dionysus: Technically you don't need to know how to play the trumpet to do that.
Hermes: You're so right-
I could very much see Logan Lerman as Poseidon in the new show. The gods don’t age unless they want to so why not look as young as him. Like just picture it Logan Lerman with his long hair and facial hair in a Hawaiian shirt playing the biggest beach bro in Olympus getting the character right, unlike the constipated serious shit the movie tried to pull
“I choose the prophecy. It will be about me.”
In my opinion, this quote from The Titan’s Curse is one of the most important moments for Percy’s character in the whole series. Here he is, still a kid, pushing down his fear and choosing a prophecy that could easily end in his death, all to protect Nico from that very same burden. He admits in the next few lines that he doesn’t want it, but he steps up and claims it anyway to spare a kid who hates him. It’s the selflessness and compassion that Percy displaye here in willingly shouldering such a heavy burden that, to me, truly makes him such a remarkable hero. There are so many stories about heroes having a great destiny, but Percy really stands out here because of his choice. He accepts the personal pain and suffering that could potentially come out of this prophecy and doesn’t shy away from it, just to save Nico. To me it’s this moment that truly shows that Percy is the child of the prophecy, not just because of his choice, but because of what his choice proves about who he is - a courageous, selfless person who is truly strong enough to fulfill his destiny and lead the demigods. I honestly still feel proud every time I reread this scene.
they: my child is completely fine
the children: decided to sue disney if they don't cast Logan Lerman as Poseidon

Percy: Estelle found out she could sneakily put post-its on people's backs without them knowing
Percy: But she doesn't know they should say things like 'kick me', so they all just have smiley faces on them

things i forgot about the sea of monsters
things i forgot about the titan’s curse
things i forgot about the battle of the labyrinth
things i forgot about the last olympian
Remember in BoO Percy thought about being a pawn of the Olympians?He thought about Luke,about how much this guy resented them for using him. Than,Percy thought that the same thing happened to him
And literally in TLT Medusa warns him about this
"But remember, boy, that a kind act can sometimes be as powerful as a sword."
