I’ve seen a lot of bad faith critiques of Percy Jackson and the Olympians. Genuinely, how do you expect a show to demonstrate internal monologues in a 3rd person narrative. You show it through dialogue, and suddenly, there’s “too much talking.” You dont show it enough, and “the kids are way too smart and jumping to conclusions without any reason.” Im not saying these aren’t valid criticisms by any means, but some people clearly wanted to hate this show before it even came out.

Hi everyone! Welcome to my page! My name is Saxony, I'm 30 and I live in Minnesota in the good ol' U.S.A. I'm also an ace/bisexual. I'm a HUGE "Merlin" fan and I also love "Sherlock" and "Doctor Who." I'm also a huge "Disney" nerd, and I absolutely adore the "How to Train Your Dragon" (as my avatar suggests). My ultimate dream is to be a writer so, if I feel brave, I might post some of my work here (key word: might).
Got a question? Fire away! Please, keep them appropriate and clean, that's all I ask. Wanna be friends? Not a problem, the more the merrier! I'm also here as moral support, so if you need to vent or share, send me a fan mail and I will do my best to help you!
Well, that's about it, I suppose. Thanks sooo much for popping in! Keep smiling and have a wonderful day! :)
Ask me anything
The worst thing in the entire world is when you’re sweeping a big pile of dirt into a dustpan and it leaves that little coke line of grit behind. No matter how you position your pan or your broom and no matter how many times you sweep over it your outcome cannot change. As immovable as fate. I hate it so
Get a wet paper towel and wipe up the last line of dust with it. No fate is so immovable that we cannot change it.
“No fate is so immovable that we cannot change it” is a raw and inspiring quote I did not expect from a post about a minor chore annoyance xD

This is really sad, but it’s at least kind of encouraging that he’s still trying
Absolutely. The spirit of learning should be nurtured at any age. Read on, info warrior!
Hey, this is exactly how you expand your vocabulary - stumbling across new words, looking them up, and then remembering that. And they’re still having fun reading the book, so they’re probably going to remember the words they pick up. This is good!
I see y'all in the notes making fun of this, don’t fucking shame people for learning stuff late. It’s not like this guy can go back in time and do more reading as a kid/teenager, do you want people to learn new things, or do you expect everyone to just wallow in ignorance if they weren’t lucky enough to be taught things as a kid/teenager? And they don’t need an easier book either, if they’re engaged with this one and understanding it, they’re fine.

Do you ever wonder what would have happened if when Merlin declared himself the sorcerer Arthur had believed him. Not the entire court just Arthur.
Arthur, yelling during a bandit attack :Merlin, there are too many of them. Do something
Merlin(panicked): Starts throwing logs at the bandits and creating butterflies to distract the bandits because god damnit Arthur, Sir Leon is just there
I know it’s been a long time, but I WILL STILL NEVER. EVER. MOVE ON. From what we could have had in Disney’s 100th celebration’s Wish.
