I just love the idea of Percy inheriting his recklessness from Sally Jackson instead of Poseidon like obviously she had become calmer over the years but it would be hilarious if no one believed it like

Poseidon: Your child sent Medusa's head to the gods

*flashback to when Sally figured out she was pregnant and yelled at the sea for an hour while flipping it off*

Sally: I hear the sea doesn't like to be restrained

Poseidon: I said it once -

Or when Percy asks about how they met

Poseidon: Your mom saw my trident and tried to steal it and kill me to figure out if I'm real or a figment of her imagination

Percy: Yeah right my mom would never hurt anyone

Poseidon: ...SALLY -

ok but what if the other gods also get involved in this like

Apollo: Your son snuck on a quest

Poseidon: Sally's son

Apollo: ...She baked me blue chocolate chip cookies

And then Poseidon decides to confront her so

Poseidon: You have got to take some responsibility

Sally: I don't know what you're talking about

*flashback to when Sally had managed to steal the trident and kill a monster*

It makes me happy when they listen

"Miles never went anywhere without carrying an air of his mother’s love about him, always obviously a boy who was loved. And to learn how to love at the table of a woman like Rio and a man like Jeff was to care and care and care until it became devotion."

When it comes to phrases and sayings, I've noticed that a good way to test their validity is to see if they also work in reverse.

"What doesn't kill you only makes you stronger" - If something isn't making you stronger, it's killing you.

"If it looks stupid but it works, it's not stupid" - If something looks smart on paper but doesn't work in practice, it's still stupid.

"Treat others as you would wish to be treated" - Don't treat yourself worse than you would treat a stranger.

"Any job worth doing is worth doing well" - if something's not worth doing, it's not worth half-assing either.

"When there's a will, there's a way" - If you truly do not want to do something, it will be impossible no matter how easy it should be.
