I think it's because the riordan series is from Percy's perspective. Due to the father/son dynamics between him and the mc, he's inadvertently whitewashed a bit. lt's pretty much confirmed that poseidon did everything he did in the actual mythos in the books as well, but nobody ever calls him out. Like, how can people shit on Zeus and praise Poseidon when their way of operating was virtually the same.

Since it's not specifying on what type of crime to stop, I would just go take a walk and stop people from jaywalking or littering.

Cam is such a trooper.

Is he gonna use Zeus's lightning as some pseudo heavenly tribulation to advance towards the next stage?

He's lucky that this version of Poseidon seems to be similar to the movie version of him because the book version is just as selfish and horrible as Zeus.

little bro is starting to turn this into a cultivation novel.

You're just plain wrong. As far as I remember, this fic never went into explicit detail explaining the mate bond. You're just filling the blanks with your own headcanon. Also, he was a not magical being before getting transported to twilight, and it was only after he became a shapeshifter that he encountered this problem. a.k.a his newfound magical nature is influencing him into taking actions he otherwise wouldn't have taken. Kinda like how jacob fought the family of a newborn child because of some non-existent perceived threat to her. No rational person capable of self-control would do that. You can't classify that as just "changing" by any metric of the word.

Wasn't he supposed to be able to gain points by training? Did he just not train at all in the supposed 3 days they had to rest?
