*Most of it was written before the Earthquake rant, but finished afterwards, so... just ignore that last part*

So, I was rewatching PJ&LT the other day and realized...
Chiron said that the cabin had been built for Percy.
... What? How? Why?
The Greek demigods have been going to Camp Halfblood for literally millennia. Why would you not have a cabin for one of the Big Three?!
You would've had something for the hundreds of demigods Poseidon had definitely sired throughout the years, it would not have been built specifically for Percy.
If the Poseidon cabin got destroyed because of the oath they took, okay, that kinda makes sense as to why they'd need to build a new one. But Zeus' cabin is still standing. So why would they destroy one cabin and not destory the other? Simple. They wouldn't.
Besides, Hera and Artemis still have a cabin, so the other two should still have their cabins.
And if they did wreck Zeus' and Posedion's cabins after the took the oath and rebuilt them once a child was found, wouldn't destroying the Big Three's cabins be disrespectful to them? (As Chiron does explain to Percy in the books... Or was it Annabeth? I can't remember.)
So if, by some weird planning, they did not have a Poseidon cabin before... Where did the thousands years worth of sea-demigods live before then? In a castle underwater?
In that case--What, is Percy not special enough to live in the underwater castle? He has to live on land instead of the cool underwater castle because he is the Hero of the Prophecy, or some shit like that? Seems legit...

Now for the actual layout of the cabin.
There's no walls! It's literally a shack. There's no privacy at all. You can stand at the front of the cabin and see anything! Clarisse would find it really easy to steal the minotaur horn, or the Stolls to put itching powder in Percy's bed. They could walk straight in.
How would you ever trust it to get changed in there, for fear of someone watching you?
Also... may I just point out... In the whole of those two minutes we see in the cabin... No bed! Where's Percy supposed to actually sleep, since, you know, that what cabins are usually for. Unless you're Athena's kids, or Hephestus', or Ares', or-You know what? Let's just ignore that point. A lot of CHB kids use their cabins for everything but sleeping.

There's fishing stuff all over the place, sure, but Posideon is also the god of earthquakes. Where's that side of Percy's heritage?
${% ... That is actually a very good point. You should keep that for another rant chapter. @|+
Thank you. I think I shall.
