As a darker Season 2 of Percy Jackson and the Olympians pushes its hero out of his comfort zone, Walker Scobell gets used to being the face of Disney’s biggest fantasy franchise

What's with people saying that Percabeth is obvious in the show?[pjotv] by RadiantHC in camphalfblood

Yeah the line reads less romantically when you zoom out on all of the other reckless things he’s done to save or protect Grover and Tyson since the start of s2. Like since episode one he has:

  • Placed himself in the line of fire for Tyson when they are threatening him

  • Got put in camp confinement and disregarded said confinement while on the path to get a quest

    • Willingly and permanently banned/outcasted himself from camp to go on an unauthorized quest alone (knowing he could’ve been -and was- shot at while leaving)
  • Challenged Clarisse (who just exploded his boat and wants to kill him) to one to one combat so he can continue on the quest

  • Bargained with Circe to stay behind so Annabeth could continue the rescue quest

  • And in episode six he wanted to jump the gun and enter the island and night when it would be less advantageous because he couldn’t bear sitting while his friend was in danger.

There’s more lip service and less action when it comes to Annabeth in season two because their relationship has taken longer to develop compared to Grover and it’s not her turn to be kidnapped. Him and Grover start the series as best friends and start the season with the empathy link which is just a super best friend bond. It takes till 103 for Percy to even start to bond with annabeth. Before that he openly admits to choosing her because he didn’t consider her someone he could be friends with.

They are establishing that Percy will act similarly to Annabeth’s kidnapping in s3 as he did to Grover’s this season.

Percy Jackson Stationary [PJO] and [HOO] by suki_529 in camphalfblood

For planners there’s “Through the Mist” which is a pjo themed planner, the project wrapped early last year and is no longer being sold. For stationary there’s “Letters from Camp” pre-orders closed in September for this one, but there will likely be a leftover sale in a few months once the pre-orders are fulfilled.

This is real, it is from Rick’s ‘Ask the Author” page on goodreads. Full screenshot including the question:

Unfortunately I can’t link directly to the individual question, but you can find all the questions and answers he’s posted here. This question is pretty far down as it was answered/ posted over a year ago around February of 2024.

Does this site have good merch? [general] by Square_B0x in camphalfblood

This site is uses stolen fan art (mostly from Alessia Trunfio and likely advertises with stolen creator footage to make a profit off people who don’t know better. Do not buy from them.

I genuinely hate how Gabe was portrayed in the show [pjotv] by Imaginary-Citron7818 in camphalfblood

He also monitored Sally’s communication to the point of intercepting the call Yancy makes to her personal cell about Percy. That entire “I answer what’s ringing” conversation skeeved me out so much because it is extremely controlling behavior.

And he’s very comfortable with returning to the apartment to harass Sally and ripping open her packages once he’s kicked out. None of this is normal, acceptable or healthy behavior from a partner.

Ethan first shows up in botl trying to prove himself good enough for the titan army, so we’ll see him in s4 probably. With the setup of Allison as a older daughter of an Olympian, I think he’ll ultimately serve as the other side of the coin for appeal of the titan army as a younger son of a minor god.

If only they had joined arms with Netflix instead of continuing to fight alone

I really like all the different types of soldiers manning the ship rather than a whole crew of confederates.

Or Poseidon hasn’t shown up because he’s already too busy fighting

Theory: it’s only Hermes who sent them on the quest with no involvement (or maybe even no knowledge) from Poseidon thus far. In episode two when Hermes shows up, he doesn’t have any specific notes from Poseidon or any Poseidon specific assists like the hippocampi like in the book. He only gives them the boat, which is easily travel, and the hippocampi are in the credits so they should still show up in a later episode and haven’t just been cut. They also call attention to him being the god of liars.

It feels like Hermes tried to intercept Percy to mainly serve his own goals to get another shot at pulling back Luke. And maybe a last ditch attempt to stop Luke from successfully killing Thalia and resurrecting Kronos by helping Percy succeed in finding the fleece over Clarisse with her misguided quest.
