thinking about how percy was SEETHING with anger as soon as ares mentioned his mom. and later luke was INSTANTLY angry and attacked percy when he mentioned his dad. both are angry when their parents are mentioned but for such different reasons… and how that is the crux of their characters… percy fights because of his loved ones, in defense of them, to protect them. he lets his anger fuel him to do good, to try and make the world a better place. luke fights because of his anger and resentment towards the gods, even if his choices will hurt his loved ones. he lets his anger fuel him to go down the wrong path, lets it take over and leave rational thinking behind. yeah
