all in all, white blond percy jackson doesn't sit right with my soul in the same way white blond haymitch abernathy doesn't. them right there are people of color! i know because they told me

to make another guest appearance before i disappear for another month & a half til after finals to say: 
          the reason we did not get the national manhunt for percy jackson in the show is because he was played by a white boy & that's just not realistic for the "this was so out of character, he would never do something like this, we never saw it coming" crowd to demonize a white blond kid on the news... SO BASICALLY, what i'm saying is if 1 + 1 = 2 then poc percy jackson canon!

let's play a percy jackson game, y'all, it's called: is this portrayal of the character accurate to the source material, or is it a character portrayal that you just happen to like?

now do not get me wrong, it's not a bad thing to like a character portrayal that is not accurate to the source material... however, let's not go touting it like it is
