"My name, Pan... originally it meant rustic. Did you know that? But over time it has come to mean all.

"The spirit of the wild must pass to all of you now. Remake the wild, a little at a time, each in your own corner of the world. You cannot wait for anyone else, even a god, to do that for you."

When i reread pjo in preparation for the chalice (and the movies which i have not watched oop), this scene gave me immense goosebumps... I guess all those years of growth and realisation of how much i care about the environment just made me love this scene so much when i once again discovered it.

I absolutely love the way Rick wove this scene into a YA series which would reach so many young minds. Perhaps the message this little pocket of slow paced plot could be lost amidst all the fast paced battle and stuff (like it did when i first read pjo when i was 13), but i know that there's at least one kid out there who has been impacted by it to make a difference, to remake the wild, a little at a time, in their own corner of the world. And that's just so inspiring for me, an art amateur who seeks to make a difference.

I also screamed at that little detail when Annabeth said "this (Pan's cave) is better than any building", which speaks so much about herself as an architect and how nature can inspire even those who seek to create something man made. And Rachel's presence as a mortal, with her father being a real estate mammoth or smth... All these representations using young kids AAAAAAAAAAAA my heart can't take it-

And so i made the most ambitious ink illustration of my life so far to mark this scene I love so much — almost no references used! (Look I'm still an art baby, this is a massive feat for me heheh)

A full nest! American Robins in Brooklyn Bridge Park.

When C.S. Lewis wrote “but some day you will be old enough to start reading fairy tales again.”

you know what i think would be fucking hilarious? if percy was fighting a monster and instead of using his sword or some other demigod powers or magic he just straight up clocks it in the face. like he just starts throwing hands. he’s a new yorker. he got kicked out of multiple boarding schools. like fuck all the proper demigod ways of fighting, just BAM! have an unexpected knuckle to the face bitch

You know when someone goes through your blog on a mass like-spree for a fandom? I love those like, 19 notifications in a row. it’s like “Ah, I see you’re well into a fixation. God bless.”
