la vieja chusma del fandom

Percy es argentino, no tengo pruebas pero tampoco dudas,falta que Riordan lo confirme /j

Riordan no sabe ni de sus propios personajes así que lo vamos a tomar como canon. Y ya que estamos algunos hcs:

What do you think of Like redemption? His death was well written,but I think it wasn't an act of atoning,but rather a point of no return.

Of luke’s “redemption”, I’m assuming? I guess it depends on whether the reader:

I personally think luke’s death is less about redemption and more about forgiving. He fucked up, he did a last effort to make things less wrong (bc luke hated the gods, letting them keep their power wasn’t the “right thing” in his mind, perhaps by that point a lesser of two evils tho)

“Did you love me?” not only allowed for a bizarre interpretation of his relationship with annabeth (which hadn’t been shown to be romantic up to that point, nor do I exactly think it necessarily meant that either but topic for another time), but also I think we would’ve got more from him asking “will you forgive me?”

Not in a christian ‘forgive or burn’ way, but in a young man desperately needing reassurance as he died that altho he fucked up big time, his only family would have it in her heart to forgive him, to acknowledge he did want something better for the demigods but he made lots of mistakes on the way and he was actually sorry..

So no, I don’t think luke’s sacrifice was only done bc “I’ll die anyway, might as well play for the good side for a sec” but he was honestly sorry for the consequences of his actions

what are pjo's characters happiest childhood memories?

This is such a cute ask to think about! I’ll go with some of my favourite og pjo characters:

Thalia: she loved her babysitter to bits, so her favourite memories where the sleepovers she got to spend at the woman’s house when her mother wanted her out of the way

Clarisse: her maman and her spent a year in France, her favourite memory is her birthday there, they got this amazing almond cake from a bakery near their flat

Luke: whenever his mum was having a good day and she’d hold him and stroked his hair until he fell asleep

Nico: the weekends with his mamma and Bianca at his nonno’s place, specially the time they went shooting and found an ugly mutt puppy his nonno didn’t want but eventually allowed him to keep in exchange for Nico making an effort in his French classes. The mutt was called Comte Hideux

Annabeth: when her father taught her to play chess, she was six and awful at the game, but her father was patient and explained how each piece moved time after time

Percy: when he was five, he was taking a bath and cured a bruise his mum had on her arm, he used to think it had been some bizarre dream, but he can still remember the fruity smell of the soap they used for bubbles

For the character ask: Clarisse La Rue and Nico Di Angelo

Clarisse La Rue

Nico di Angelo

For this ask game!

Do you have any headcanon on how Luke's personality was,aside from "angry at the right things, wrong on how he acted on it" and "guy wanting to destroy Olympus until he regretted his choices"? I'm talking mostly about how he acted towards other people in a day to day basis and whenever he was alone,quirks, mannerisms.

There’s not much talk about Luke in the fandom nowadays but whenever there is he’s either called a pedophile or he’s stripped down to “goodish intentions, wrong means”, he was a lot more interesting than that, imo, but some of his qualities aren’t even hcs of mine

In canon, he was charismatic, friendly, impulsive, persuasive, quick to help, passionate, made sure people felt included, determined, ambitious etc

Headcanons:

Annabeth had no right to tell Magnus to forgive Randolph, especially since she did not want to make up with her father for years

strongly agree | agree | neutral | disagree | strongly disagree

I agree that Magnus has the right to keep a grudge against whoever he chooses, and while hate leads nowhere, there’s big difference between telling someone to stop hating a person, and telling someone to forgive that person

I disagree that Annabeth in particular has no right to say so because, like you point out, for years she didn’t forgive her father but when she did she clearly felt happier and more stable. Let’s not forget she tried to give her father a chance before TLT, and then again later on, so her unforgiving period was really as a child, I wouldn’t hold it against her.. if anything, forgiving too much seems to be one of Annabeth’s faults

What would you change in Luke's death scene(besides the "Did you love me" BS,of course)? I saw that in your blog,and it made me curious.

What do you think of Like redemption? His death was well written,but I think it wasn't an act of atoning,but rather a point of no return.
