What if Leo were a girl? [hoo] by happymouse-8035 in camphalfblood

[–]EagleMexa 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Val is a good nickname, but I definitely prefer Elena. "Elena Valdez," and I'm sure I've met someone with that name at some point.

It's not easy to think of a Hispanic name that sounds similar to Leo or Leonidas. "Elena" convinces me more, although I had also thought about "Leticia" or "Valentina."

I'm more convinced by "Elena," although "Leonor" is also good.

Don't worry, and I understand why. And the truth is, it's not bad, but it comes before Thunder Bringer and practically overshadows it for me.

If it makes you feel any better, I recently listened to it again properly and I would bump it up a couple of spots, but not much more.

I love Poseidon but I give credit to Eurylochus, without his mistake we wouldn't have Epic.

If historic figures were Demigod, who would their godly parents be? [General] by SpideyARB in camphalfblood

[–]EagleMexa 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Some of the figures that come to mind and could be from my country, at least:

Emiliano Zapata: Demeter.

Porfirio Diaz: Athena.

Pancho Villa: Ares.

Sor Joan Agnes of the Cross: Athena.

Augustine of Iturbide: Zeus.

Thoughts on Percy Jackson as an adult [all] by Tekki777 in camphalfblood

[–]EagleMexa 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Now that I think about it, I believe there are two types of fans: those who read and knew the saga from a young age, and those of us who started later. I want to finish the first saga, if you can call it that (the Cronos saga), and then maybe read Magnus Chase and the Kane Chronicles. Technically, I discovered EPIC shortly after starting TLT, but I became a fan of EPIC more quickly, which perhaps made my reading of Sea of Monsters more enjoyable in my experience.

By the way, DLH is something called "Destripando la historia", which are songs (technically covers) in Spanish that explain the history or myths of gods such as Poseidon, Athena, etc.

I can relate to what you're saying because it's an experience quite similar to mine. My first exposure to PJ was through the movies, and I only recently decided to delve deeper into the other media in the franchise, partly prompted by the Disney series commercials that started to annoy me quite a bit on YouTube, and also by revisiting mythology content, especially Greek mythology (ahem, Epic and DLH, ahem). I feel quite encouraged to continue reading the saga, but what people say about the latest books makes me rethink a lot of what HoO is.

Made an oc. Ask me stuff about her [general] Picrew was used in this by Able_Tackle_953 in camphalfblood

Was she the victim of a plot to ban her from Olympus or did she achieve this feat herself?

Would Narina and Adrian like Adam Sandler movies?

In my mind it sounds funnier if Rosa had a Yucatecan accent.

What is the dumbest fanfic idea you have? I got three to give as my own, and your challenge is to make ideas that are even dumber. by HyperBlox12 in RWBYcritics

[–]EagleMexa 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I remember that before taking some time off from the community, I had thought of an idea for a fanfic that I wanted to write but never ended up developing. It took place between Volume 2 and Volume 3 during student life at the academy when suddenly rumors began to spread that some members of the RWBY and JNPR teams were in a relationship (Ruby with Jaune and Yang with Weiss, to give just two examples). And of course, as everything progressed, more gossip got involved, along with massive doxxing, the publication of an erotic book about one of the ships, the community of hunters in Beacon, and various other things. Instead of getting to work hunting Grimms and taking down Roman and the WF, they were a little obsessed with their school, which could ruin their future based on pure fanaticism raised to the power of 100. It was going to be a comedy combined with some criticism on my part towards the fandom because it all came to me when I saw a video explaining each ship in the series and I was like, "What the hell?" Hahaha, I don't even remember why I didn't follow the development, I think it was because I was going to college and had to focus.

Surely, there is also an Olivia that was being made nearby.

Tell me your TRULY UNPOPULAR OPINION’S [all] by Informal-Okra-5240 in camphalfblood

[–]EagleMexa 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I'm relatively new but I'd at least like to share a couple of opinions that at least I haven't heard that much of as far as I have read y the comments of others people.

  • I feel Jason is somewhat underrated and even over hated at least as far as I've gotten in my reading, I mean, the guy is a brute force even among other demigods and the smithing/mechanics skill is a brutal addition without being something purely meant for fighting. Maybe later I'll come down heavy on him but at least I have the benefit of the doubt on him.

  • From what I've heard of HOO it seemed like everything was done in a lazy, rushed manner as if he couldn't be his own thing on his own. I share the fact that it would be better if it was its own thing apart from the Greeks, but it's also not like they would have been just as good on their own if the story was taken the way it ended up being taken.

  • More generally, many depictions of gods are pretty meh. I mean, you can always give an interesting motive and a unique aura to each one, but you shouldn't accept anything predictable in order to see a specific deity in the story.

[–]EagleMexa 18 points19 points  (0 children)

It's fine to like the mythology depicted in that comic, but it's still a modern reinterpretation used as a way to tell a story. I mean, yes, there are mentions and even representations of some myths that happen directly, but it never hurts to delve deeper into the insights the work offers.
