when are we gonna stop using the word “abusive” as a synonym for “just being an asshole”
hate 2 break this 2 yall but the world isnt split up into nice people and abusers. being cruel or manipulative in the absence of an observable pattern of behavior and an established power dynamic isnt abuse. sometimes people are just shitty
OKAY BUT CHIRON BEING CONFUSED AS HELL BY THE VINE REFERENCES
Especially when Percy is screaming fuck off to the ocean
But consider:
Chiron not knowing that the campers are referencing things, but seeming to understand them.
Percy at the ocean: Fuck off
Chiron: Ah, yes, reasonable, considering all the stress he’s been under. At least he has an outlet.
Nico: I don’t have enough money for chicken nugget.
Chrion: He is a young boy with access only to Greek money. I will see if we can have chicken nuggets for dinner tomorrow.
Leo: Road work ahead? Yeah I sure hope it does.
Chiron: It’s so refreshing to see campers so invested in the basic infrastructure of camp and Long Island.
The apollo campers once their dad becomes human: *banging pots and pans* I DIDN’T GET NO FUCKING SLEEP ‘CAUSE OF Y’ALL! YA’LL NOT GONNA GET NO SLEEP ‘CAUSE OF ME
how did this get 4k notes
Some more examples:
Clarrise: What up my name is Clarrise, I’m 19 and I never fuckin’ learned how to read
Chiron: That’s a shame Miss La Rue. I could provide additional tutoring to help you master such a life skill
Piper: Hi, my name is Piper Mclean and I’m your freestyle dance teacher
Chiron: Piper if you wanted to start an extracurricular exercise class, then you only had to ask so I could put it on the schedule. Now nobody has turned up.
[During an intense sparing match between Jason and Percy]
Kyla: Can I get a waffle? Can I PLEASE get a waffle?
Chiron: You do know that I prohibited snacking between meal times. I could change tomorrow’s breakfast to include waffles on the menu is that a compromise?
[After said sparing match]
Will:(gesturing towards the loser) He need some milk
Chiron: Well I thought ambrosia would be more effective but I suppose you are a better medic than me
Connor: Hey, today my brother pushed me so I’m starting a kickstarter to put him down. Benefits of killing him are I would get pushed way less-
Chiron: Now I get why you’re angry but killing Travis is not the solution
Me, a child of apollo, pointing at the sun:
You are my dad,
YOURE MY DAD!
boogie woogie woogie
Leo: FUCK YA CHICKEN STRIPS!
Chiron, defeated: please do not participate in such actions
percy, buried in sand up to his neck: I am the sand guardian! guardian of the sand!
grover: posideon quivers before him!
percy, yelling at the sea: FUCK OFF
chiron: but?????? his dad?????????? is?????? posideon????????
Percy:YOU READY TO FUCKIN’ DIE?!
Thalia:I’M A BAD BITCH, YOU CAN’T KILL ME!
It just keeps getting better
Frank: You know, school’s not important, be whatever you want to be. If you wanna be a dog *turns into dog* -RUFF- *turns into human* ya know?
Chiron: *gives up*
Chiron, driving the strawberry truck into town with some campers in the back: Oh look, a Del Taco. Is anyone hungry?
Kid, in the back seat: FRESHA VACA DOO!!!
Chrion: My dear child, that says ‘fresh avacado’
—- Mitchel, at lunch : And they were roommates
The entire Aphrodite table: *gasps* Oh my gods, they were roommates
Chiron: ???? What just happened ??? They were all in sync ???? Roommates ???
—-
Demeter cabin, crowded around a lettuce: cabbasu, cabbasu, cab-a-su! LETTASU, LETTASU, LET-A-SUUUUUUUUU
Chrion: Yes that does appear to be lettuce, but why are you all yelling?
Son of Hypnos: It’s Wednesday, my dudes! AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHH
Chiron: No, Wednesday was yesterday. It’s Thursday. On another note, you must be hungry. Come, Nico wanted chicken nuggets.
*an camper says that athena is better in her roman form*
Annabeth: that is not correct because according to the encyclopedia asjsjskkkskakksk
Chiron: *fucking runs*
Dionysus: Two shots of vodka *pours half a bottle*
Chiron: Where did you even get that-
Percy, jumping into the water, pointing at Chirons hooves: WHAT ARE THOSEEEEEE
Chiron: I’m slightly concerned that you’re not able to realize those are my hooves. Perhaps your ability to see underwater is somehow diminishing? I think it may be in our best interest to get you to the infirmary.
—————————————————————————-
Jason: [doing cool wind tricks]
Leo: [blows it away]
Jason: Adam–
Chiron: Adam? I’m. Unsure if we have an Adam currently here, mr. Grace. Unless this is young Valdez’s new nickname, than I am happy to oblige.
When Apollo showed up at Percy’s apartment door:
Percy: Why.
Percy: Why?
Percy: Why!
—————————————————————
Leo, about Percy and Jason: Two bros, chillin in a hot tub, 5 feet apart cause they’re not gay!
OR, maybe, just maybe, and hear me out here, MAYBE the actual reason is that not as many people in this day and age feel a pressing urge to spend money on mediocre food at an exploitative business just because some boobs are under a t-shirt in the same room?
This promise was an exciting novelty only to a pre-internet and wealthier generation which simultaneously felt far less shame in leering at or catcalling women but far more shame in looking at porn. Hooters was softcore pseudo burlesque for married Christian men and the culture permitting its success will likely never be repeated and shouldn’t be.
Hooters always seemed really weird for me for this exact reason. It’s like this bizarre fusion of strip club and family restaurant that no one asked for. The food isnt great, everyone is fully clothed, even the staff exists in a creepy limbo where they’re not actually strippers, but they’re only there because of their tits. Its like if someone decided to turn exploitation into a chain restaurant.
Millennials go to an actual strip club or burlesque show if that’s what they’re into, and then to a good wings bar after. There’s no need for a completely mediocre combination of the two
How dare they accuse us of not liking boobs. How dare
