People who try to tell me things are ‘not that deep’ fundamentally misunderstand me. I am not a fish desperately in search of the ocean. I am a magpie that roves the canons, searching for shiny things to put in my nest. Whether or not it actually is given deep narrative weight by canon itself is of secondary importance to the fact that it has the potential to be interesting, and thus, I covet it.
I mean, let’s say that the God-gene is dominant and shown with ‘R’ and mortal gene, which is recessive, is ‘r’. Then we can show the demigods with ‘Rr’ right? Be patient, this will make sense soon. In Mendelian genetics, when you cross these two individuals (Rr x Rr), you will have a demigod (Rr) with 50% chance, a normal human (rr) with 25% and with 25% possibility A (RR). I mean, this is just a theory but ANNABETH MAY GIVE A BIRTH TO A GOD. And can you imagine, he or she will have powers of ATHENA and POSEIDON. No, I cannot calm down. And, yes, I am a nerd.

I have come across a few such absolute masterpieces based on the manga. I cannot express with words the kind of love I feel for these artworks.
Shoutout to the original creator.
