ATLA Characters As Royalty

everyone talks about Nico and hades and Persephone and Thalia and Zeus and Hera and Thalia’s billion half-siblings but what wouldn’t I give to have Thalia and Nick witness the Silent, Awkward Family Dinner between Poseidon, Percy (Poseidon’s Favorite Son), Triton (Not Poseidon’s favorite son), and Amphitrite

we’ve talked about this already, i know, but i have to let you know i’m still obsessed with poseidon getting Bold and wanting to both impress percy and piss off his brothers by inviting nico and thalia into his domain for an Extended Family Dinner, and like. triton’s so fucking mad. triton’s like “father is it necessary to house these...... these cretins -” and poseidon’s laughing like “triton! you make the funniest jokes! of course it is necessary” because i think the most integral thing about poseidon is that he exists to flex on everyone around him. he’s got to be (marginally) a better dad than all those other shittier olympians, he’s gotta flex on triton by reminding triton that percy is the favorite, he even flexes on his own son by being better than percy is expecting. this dude exists to go “you thought and that was a mistake”

thalia’s in it for free food and a night off, and she’s kind of expecting dinner with a show. she does also enjoy doing things that will make zeus go wild. nico, too, enjoys free food, and also dinner with a show, but when percy asks him and makes those big baby seal eyes the remnants of nico’s ludicrously intense crush on percy make themselves known and nico’s like uh uh uh uh yeah uh uh yeah sure. thalia slaps nico’s back three times. she’s convinced he’s choking on something. so nico is convinced to do something that will undoubtedly piss hades off and endanger the hard-earned respect he’s gotten from hades after the titan war, but, you know, things sometimes happen that way when percy jackson makes big baby seal eyes at you.

but i think we both agreed.... this dinner is chaos. percy spends most of it unintentionally winding triton up, and tyson’s just excited to have everyone around, and thalia’s shoving food into her pockets because she can see a vein in triton’s neck bulging. nico is looking between percy and triton and poseidon and trying to figure out why triton is blue, and also trying to come to terms with the fact that percy and poseidon look a lot alike, and that’s a super uncomfortable thing to know about the guy you had a major crush on. percy’s telling tyson a story about how he fought phobos and deimos and poseidon is BEAMING and triton interrupts it to spear the table with his trident shouting YOU DON’T DESERVE FATHER’S AFFECTION!!!!!! and amphitrite is like triton we just replaced this table after the last time you broke it, which was the last time perseus was here. and percy’s like......... he sticks his tongue out at triton and triton goes absolutely feral

poseidon notices nico’s thousand-yard stare and claps him on the shoulder, laughing a low rumbling laugh, and says boys will be boys! percy has jumped over the table and he and triton are just wrestling in the water, triton’s screaming obscenities and percy keeps repeating EAT MY PANTS in latin. tyson is clapping and cheering for percy. thalia, professional shit-stirrer, starts cheering for triton

sorry I’m still thinking about that anon who said they were up til 6:30 reading angsty Tim Drake fic and I respect that. the angst market is booming for a reason. but were I EVER to get back into writing fan fic I would contribute exactly one (1) thing to the DC fandom and that would be transcripts of Bat Watch, the Batman conspiracy podcast that Tim and Steph record in Tim’s closet while taking fat rips off a bat bong

Their war is their life. And their life is a weapon.

in superman adventures #19, there’s a villain named multi-face who can convincingly disguise himself as anyone, even tricking dna tests and x-ray vision. Superman initially can’t stop him

and the only reason he gets caught is because multiface decides to disguise himself as, of all people, CLARK KENT i’m screaming

Me @ Lucasfilm it’s not that hard you guys

reblog and make a wish! this was removed from tumbrl due to “violating one or more of Tumblr’s Community Guidelines”, but since my wish came true the first time, I’m putting it back. :)

Why not?

this is the money dog, repost in the next 24 hours and money will come your way!!

I know in the books it’s already like, a Thing that Percy’s relationship with his godly family seems to be abnormally good- like, Poseidon’s not dad of the year but he’s also made it clear he deeply cares about Percy and has tried to warn/protect him in the past, there’s been brief references here and there that after tlo Percy started spending time in the underwater palace occasionally, he calls Amphitrite his step-mom and says she bakes him cookies and doesn’t mind that he’s messy when he stays over, he brought back that pendant Annabeth wears, little stuff like that- but tbh I wish it would be expanded on more because apart from the fact it’s sweet, it’s also like, kinda funny? when you think about how all the other gods are just. messes. about family. like let me just SEE him interact with his family more, it has such potential. He casually mentions he’s meeting his sister Kym at starbucks later and Jason’s like ‘she sold you out to a giant that wanted to murder you’ and Percy’s just like ‘yeah but that was months ago and dad made her apologize we’re cool now’. Annabeth still hasn’t forgiven her mom for the whole Mark-of-Athena-Suicide-Quest thing and they had a huge fight on Olympus the other day, the first time they had seen each other since the war ended, and Annabeth’s complaining about this to Percy, who’s Iris Messaging her from the bottom of the ocean because it’s Poseidon’s custody weekend. There’s a mandatory parent bake sale at school to raise money for a field trip but Sally’s on a book tour and Paul was prepared to just quit after he set the kitchen on fire, only for Amphitrite to stroll into the school the next day and ruin every PTA Mom’s life. Percy telling his friends to stay out of the water for a few days because he called Triton a bitch in the family group chat and he just wanted them to be careful. Percy trying to figure out if a bunch of Greek gods are expecting Christmas presents or not and wtf to get them if they are. Triton wanting to get Percy back for the bitch comment but knowing their dad won’t let him drown someone so he instead shows up at Percy’s mortal high school and does The Most to embarrass him. Tyson begging Percy to let him help babysit Estelle. Poseidon showing up at Career Day with absolutely no warning and trying not to laugh at Percy’s reaction. Percy getting his dad a fathers day card like he wanted to do in SoM!! Like it’s a dynamic I don’t want pushed to the side as much as it is!!! There’s so much to work with there!!! I want more! 

Gosh dammit muffin! Now I can't get the idea of long haired andorogynous zuko out of my head, and I'm like "what if he'd never done the bald ponytail thing and just let his hair grow back, so by the show he had long ass hair" and then I was like "what if he joined the gaang after crossroads and figured that the best way to go incognito was as a woman since people were looking for the PRINCE. Anyway now i'm staring down a blank google doc so thx.

Yesss.
