Exactly, I had to post an essay having to explain to someone that calypso is a weirdo. It’s just crazy we have to say that someone is a weirdo. I feel like it’s just ppl who can’t stand a woman being as bad as a man. And I bet they’re the same ppl who hate Zeus and Apollo for what they do LOL
The day people can openly say that they think calypso is a weirdo without someone yelling in their ear
“What about Apollo with Reyna?!”
Or
“Well Nico is technically a weirdo for dating Will!”
Is the day world peace will start…
Anyway Calypso has the mentality and maturity of a teenage girl because that's how the books framed her. By definition, she did not "mentally and emotionally grow up" as you say. Sorry, but that's how the books are written.
Funny how you say that “it’s how the books are written” but I bet you don’t like Apollo confessing to Reyna, right? But I could say Apollo isn’t a creep for that bc the books don’t depict him as a weirdo. So “that’s how the books are written”.
I could say that ares is an asshole who hates and abuses his daughters because “that’s how the books are written”.
I could say that Apollo is a sex-addict whore who neglects his children and allows them to suffer and die bc “that’s how the books are written.”
Don’t you know how stupid you sound? We’re talking about a literal predator that preys on young boys and vulnerable men. It’s clear that you have no idea what you are talking about because I had a seizure reading this.
So give me an example of how she is a victim in any way shape or form EXCEPT FOR THE FACT that calypso didn’t deserve being put on the island or being cursed. But it is SO clear that you don’t know how her fucking island works it hurts. I swear I got taken back to kindergarten by reading this. So since you can’t comprehend what a mythical island works, let me tell you!
Calypsos island is NOTHING LIKE the lotus casino. NOWHERE does it say that she is permanently a child. Nowhere does it say she is brainwashed into not knowing how much time has passed. And don’t tell me “Google told me!” And an AI comes up first or a CHB Reddit page comes up as well bc that doesn’t count because the AI probably took it from the Reddit post. It’s said that it COULD be possible. Not IS not CERTAINLY, COULD. MEANING THAT IT COULD NOT BE TRUE. If you’re reading through that Reddit and AI post.
So if your argument is “calypso didn’t age because she’s immortal!” Then Apollo hasn’t aged, Zeus hadn’t aged, Athena hasn’t aged and are all mentally INFANTS. So what about that? Since you say that calypso didn’t mentally age how would the olympians and other gods work bc they were born immortal. My argument is that she didn’t mentally or emotionally age because there was nothing to say that it didn’t let her, while in the lotus casino it literally TELLS YOU why nico didn’t emotionally or mentally grow.
This argument is so idiotic it hurts. Just because a book said so doesn’t mean that it doesn’t exist. Did the books say that she doesn’t mentally age? Bc all the books I’ve read so far it doesn’t! It only says that she only eternally looks like a 15 year old! Just bc she looks like it doesn’t mean she thinks that way!
But also that makes me wonder, if she doesn’t mentally age in the books, why does she act like the way she does? Why is she obsessive? You could say “it’s her curse!” But an innocent teenager wouldn’t try to use an underaged boy as a green card then abuse him! And yes, she abused him, no teenage girl in love would constantly degrade her boyfriend. Realistically by your argument should be she should be head over heels.
But also, didn’t she HATE Leo when he came onto her island? She didn’t want him? So your argument if it was written in the books; calypsos’s curse is only that she can’t leave the island and is immortal! Meaning that the books say (at least the ones I’ve read) say that she says or implies she doesn’t fall in love with them when they wash up on shore!
Doesn’t say that she didn’t mentally age, didn’t imply it, didn’t do anything. At least with Nico you could CLEARLY TELL Nico did NOT mentally age! So tell me this, if calypso didn’t age, she was under a curse in the books, she didn’t know what was happening, then why did she try to guilt trip Percy into staying? Why did she hurt and abuse (I’m using abuse because a lot of other ppl agree, but you could say mistreatment.) Leo? Why did she manipulate and use Leo as a green card?
And then my final question, if she truly was mentally a teenager, then she should learn from her actions. Not mentally or emotionally aging doesn’t mean she’s permanently like that. What I mean is that they don’t learn from their actions or mistakes or they aren’t given the items to learn and grow mentally. Where does it say she permanently doesnt mentally or emotionally age?
Because it seems PRETTY WELL she learned from what has happened! That she didn’t love Leo when he washed up and tried to gaslight Percy and explained to him her curse!
Your argument is basically “my eyes were closed while typing this”. Because if you’re talking about what’s written in the books, SO MANY THINGS SHOULDNT APPLY. ares is a daughter abuser, Athena is a selfish person who doesn’t care about Annabeth or any other of her kids and more!
Yall are pissing me off atp bc you come in here anonymously spouting things out your booty hole that you clearly don’t know what is written. So please, if you’re going to argue that calypso shouldn’t be hated on for these things, look at what the books say. And please think before you type and try to annoy me.
If I seem pissed off I am bc you’re typing none-sense, and I’m gonna tell you all the sense. You can think calypso is an UwU little innocent girl; but you cannot say Apollo is a weirdo, Zeus is a weirdo and etc. and you can tell by the lack of emojis im typing I’m so serious .
If you’re going to try to defend calypso, at least have a good argument.
I feel like a lot of “feminist” retellings aren’t even feminism. It’s just “what if I make a woman terrible to men?” And it’s 545 pages of a woman, who is nothing like the retelling, shitting on and dunking on men and using feminism as a selling point….😭
"This extraordinary, brilliant, world-changing feminist Medusa Retelling..."
It's already 2025 and we as a society are not evolving.
I hate when I’m in an argument with a calypso defender and they say smth like “but what about Nico?! He’s just like calypso!”
Nope! Let’s bring in the good old Greek mythology! The best way to sum up the lotus flowers/lotus casino in one sentence in epic the musical! Quote “It's a lotus, it controls your mind and never lets you free”
Which is literally what the lotus flower does. The flower eaten causes forgetfulness and makes them loose their desire to return home. Nico was 10. He was a literal CHILD. Not teen, not pre-teen, CHILD.
The lotus casino pushes the lotus flowers into the air so they forget how long they’ve stayed there for. 70 years in the real world could be two weeks for Bianca and Nico. But the difference between Nico and calypso is one thing.
Nico didn’t mentally or emotionally grow up. Calypso did.
Yes both their ages stayed the same but Nico still was mentally a child. A 10 year old. Calypso is immortal and knew what was happening and mentally and emotionally matured, Nico did not.
Nico literally didn’t know what was happening but calypso DID. Yes technically Nico would be a senior citizen but he didnt mentally, physically or emotionally developed while in the lotus casino. Calypso did.
Now I do sympathize with calypsos curse, it’s terrible, but that shouldn’t be an excuse to defend her from the terrible things she has done.
But like redditors are either the most helpful or more illegal ppl on earth theyres no inbetween
Chat am I for the streets 😨😨😨

I think the second craziest thing was me having to explain to a guy that him dating a 16 yr while being 25 is him being a weirdo that could send him to prison technically…

BRO IT VANISHED SO IMMA TYPE IT IN HERE
a person on Reddit said that my SA story was invalid bc me and my SA’er were minors at the time (still am) and they defended them saying that they were probably just curious and that I was a terrible person for calling them my abuser when I hadn’t even said the full story yet. They physically, mentally, emotionally and sexually abused me for almost two years straight and some random mf on Reddit wants to say it ain’t true 😭

“Always have a writer friend it’ll be fun!!”
NO. TWEAKING RN BC I HAVE MORE THAN 12K WORDS, 25 PAGES, AND 66,714 CHARACTERS AND IM WORKING OVERTIME FOR ONE PERSON. ONE PERSON.
IM WRITING THIS LIKE THIS WILL KILL ME ALL FOR ONE PERSON WHO CAN ACTUALLY READ IT. Wanna know what’s worse…? ITS NOT EVEN ON CHAPTER FIVE YET.
I love my pookies tho I’ll always do this for them 🥰💛
“Just use ai” the man with Cheeto dust on his face and fingers say, running his meaty fingers through his greasy 4 strands of hair before putting on his fedora and typing to his discord kittens
I then smacked him with a galvanised square steel bar in his hideous face, I then started to scream and yell at him as I bash his head with my hello kitty Nintendo switch
“Ai is stupid, and it’s cheating” I saw as I look him with my darkened eyes, my pupils fixated on his hatsune miku gaming chair
“Ai is real art!” He said protestingly, he almost sounded like a nerd emoji
I then proceeded to feed him to the meat worm 😋
(Sending you good vibes to help finish 👹)
Only AI I will support 😔✨✨

I once had someone say I should just use ChatGPT if I was tired of writing and that’s like telling someone you cooked and ate their dog. HELL NAW.
THAT IS THE HIGHEST INSULT FOR A WRITER
It’s annoying bc there’s these writers and artists who are genuinely creative and talented but get overlooked by “just use AI!”
Just because AI is simpler doesn’t mean it’s better. You truly don’t appreciate how a human draws/writes things until you see AI destroy a piece of art of writing.
I HATE AI. I LOVE USING IT TO CHEAT IN MATH BUT NOT IN YK WORK FUCK OFF CHATGPT

STOP DONT MAKE ME CRY.
Honestly goated Ares you go my man
Still love Apollo tho and I love his stuff but I think the funniest thing is how all his Bfs/Gfs are all big buff people that could crack him in half with one move
Also I just found out there’s an Apollo statue where he’s dressed as a woman and….you go dude, you love amazing work it ✨✨
This is just a personal opinion but I HATE IT when ppl draw Apollo as some little white dude
BRO IS LITERAL SUNLIGHT GIVE HIM SOME COLOR PLEASEEEEEEEEEE 😭😭😭 DONT MAKE HIM THE COLOR OF PAPER
(I once saw someone draw him as one of those twink child white boys and I wanted to judge so hard but then i remember my art looks like dog shit so I don’t ❤️)
*gag* Apollo 🤮
No but fr, he was literally described as tan 😭😭😭 the ONE TIME he was described as pale is when Hyacinthus died 😭
Also!! Fun fact: Hyacinthus had four kids and a wife that he left for Apollo, which I find interesting. I can’t find much detail to as if it was non con, or Hyacinthus was just a weirdo? But I’d like to think that his kids grow hyacinths 🧐🧐🧐
(I need to stop hating on Apollo,one of these days I’m gonna need him, and he’s gonna send me a plague or something 😞😞😞) (please apollo, have mercy, I’m a MINOR 👹👹)
Thank you @little-ghostgirl-31 for the free commission! It is amazing! Please go support them please go support them as their art is AMAZING!!
This reminds me of the time the two got turned mortal together and it was just chaos between them LOL
how i imagine things going down
In your Steven AU universe, for some reason, I believe that before Apollo's "death", Will and Austin lived with him and not with their mortal mothers. [I imagine that Apollo did something very meaningful and useful for Zeus and he allowed him to really raise his several future children].
It was a very cozy and peaceful place, some small town by the sea or a quiet, prosperous area, - cozy apartment or a beautiful little house. [Will and Austin were created from clay and revive by Apollo, so Naomi and Latricia were unaware of their motherhood].
Imagine what a happy little family they were - two wonderful sons and their wonderful loving father. Then Apollo fell in love with Darren and Kayla was conceived...
Will and Austin hug desperately, clinging tightly to each other under the door of the room where their younger sister is born. Then they listen to how the newborn Kayla screamed, and grandma and aunt started crying...
This is such an amazing perspective of it! It’s so sad tho too which is basically the whole AU lol
In this AU the ancient law of the gods not being able to see their kids wasn’t forced until the birth of thalia, Percy, Jason, Nico and Bianca (I can’t remember who was first, I think Thalia but I’m not sure) meaning the gods COULD spend time with their children
Now they can’t bring their kids up on Olympus out of fear chaos would happen but Apollo was good father. He would bless all the parents he had kids with in some way (like with Naomi he promoted her music career) so that they could live on their own comfortably
In the wiki it says that Austin in 14 while Kayla is 15 or younger meaning we probably don’t know their actual ages. I’m going to make Kayla 13 to make it make more sense.
With this though Will was only 2 when Austin was born and 3 when Kayla was. He and Austin don’t really remember Apollo much, but they do remember his long sunshine golden hair and his singing voice. They never blamed Kayla for what has happened, but they didn’t blame anyone because no one told them what actually happened to Apollo.
Meaning after Kayla’s birth the parents were forced to be by themselves and to support themselves without knowing what actually happened to Apollo. Zeus and the others know but not the parents or the kids.
So, in your Steven Universe AU you said that Apollo "died" when Kayla was born and since we know that Kayla is canonically an Mpreg child doeas that imply that Apollo "died" in birth?
If yes, I can already see the potential for survivors guilt related trauma for Kayla AND ALSO some really interesting family dynamics with her sibs [and maybe even the Olympians (mostly Artemis)]
The Steven universe AU isn’t really a Steven universe AU per to say. But it has a lot of themes from it so I just call it the Steven universe AU lol
But yes, since Apollo technically Mpreg’ed Kayla he did technically “die” in birth.
Ever since Apollos technical death Olympus hasn’t really been the same. Artemis and Leto haven’t been the same. Since Kayla was technically the final nail in the coffin she is mostly blamed for Apollos “death” but technically it was Will who started to get Apollo sick
I’m probably going to rename the AU but I’m not sure yet
Steven universe AU with the Apollo kids except Apollo was slowly “dying” when Will was born, severely weak when Austin was born and finally “died” when Kayla was born.
Except he isn’t dead. Gods can’t die. He’s in a coma like state. But no one knows why.
Headcanon that Apollo occasionally likes to join Artemis and her hunters during hunting seasons because he doesn’t like to hunt alone. The hunters have just come to accept this because it’s Apollo
I need a fanfic where it’s all of Apollos godly and mortal children having to protect him from people trying to flirt with him. And it’s just all of the Apollos kids banding together to protect Apollo
This might be just me but I feel like Hyacinthus could’ve played a huge role in the Apollo kids’s lives. So since I’m mentally unstable and very gay I have an idea!
Instead of hyacinthus being mere flowers what if they possess the soul of Hyacinthus? To mere mortals their just flowers, but to campers if their lucky enough get to see the body and soul of Hyacinthus. Demeter kids can talk to him but people don’t really believe that they can and that it’s a fake myth.
Hyacinths flowers bloom all around Apollo kids and areas no matter the weather. And whenever an Apollo kid is hurt he blooms around them like a barrier and reveals himself to the monster, sometimes being able to signal for help or scare off the monster.
Apollo kids always talk about this “myth” some saying they saw him, some saying they felt him, but no one can ever agree on if he’s real or not.
But one thing is for sure, if he can’t be with Apollo and love him, then he will be the protector of his children.
I JUST FOUND OUT THE TOA FANDOM SHIPS FUCKING APOLLO WITH THE ARROW OF DODONDA. THE TALKING ARROW. THAT ONLY HE CAN HEAR. I FUCKING LOVE THIS FANDOM 😭
Do you ever think that Ares just stresses whenever his siblings gets punished? Like Athena got jumped by Zeus and Apollo got turned mortal and their the FAVORITE KIDS. He is sweating BULLETS wondering what his punishment would be as the HATED KID
Mpreg being in Percy Jackson is hilarious. But it is crazy when you think about it especially with Apollo. Because he will actively get pregnant no questions asked. So imagine how many Apollo kids before the battle of manhattan there was who he literally gave birth to…
I want to be depressing today. HC that hyacinths always bloom/follow Apollo kids. No one knows how or why they just do.
HC that in Percy Jackson that Apollos healing/plague powers work like rapunzels healing and hurt incantations
