When I First Read The Books As A Kid, I Interpreted Fails To Save What Matters Most In The End As A Reference

when i first read the books as a kid, i interpreted “fails to save what matters most in the end” as a reference to percy’s failure at saving sally the first time around but with the changed betrayal scene in the show and percy mentioning this line along with his appeal to luke (“this is not you, this is kronos”), it makes me think that maybe that line refers to luke. maybe luke is the one percy fails to save in the end and obv, that responsibility doesn’t lie with percy but this prophecy is tailor-made for his perspective and i don’t doubt that the percy we see having that conversation with luke wouldn’t have felt regret over failing to persuade luke to not turn his back on them. which is just...so painful to think about.

Everyone talking about how they are the most excited to see Grover in a wedding dress (if/when) we get a second season of the Percy Jackson series. And I understand the excitement for all the giddy moments that are to come from that, as the book is adapted episode per episode :,D. BUT BUT !! I myself am actually more excited to see that one emotional conversation that Percy has with Tyson at the very end of The Sea of Monsters :,). That conversation is so precious to me, and I hope it makes it Final Cut of the series. I want the scene to be brought to life beautifully and accurately.

I want to see Percy go and apologize to Tyson for feeling ashamed and annoyed of having him as a half cyclops brother at the beginning of the book; only for Tyson to tell him that he had asked Poseidon for him.

“You asked Poseidon for… me?”

"For a friend, young cyclopes grow up alone on the streets, learns to make things out of scraps. Learn to survive … Makes us appreciate blessings, not be greedy and mean and fat like Polyphemus …. I prayed to Daddy for help. Soon the people at Meriwether found me. Mey you. Biggest blessing ever. Sorry I said Poseidon was mean. He sent me a brother. ”

Annabeth: If I had a nickel for every time I went to a funeral and the supposed deceased showed up, I'd have 2 nickels. Which isn't a lot but it's weird it happened twice.
