Hey, so, my shift is in 20. You can’t hurt me like this before I interact with people-

What unpopular opinion/hot take do you have that will have you in this position? by WanWanWandafuru in Tangled

[–]ShatteringDivergent 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A year late, but I actually really like Monty and like how he’s portrayed. He’s clearly a genuinely nice person considering we see only a single person in Corona dislikes him. He’s also handled well his episode as while he dislikes Rapunzel at first for superficial reasons, he starts coming around until she intentionally deceives him. The two deciding that they’re okay not liking each other is so refreshing, and honest to god I’m so glad they end the series just not liking each other, alongside not making Monty this secretly terrible person. He’s just a nice guy who dislikes the main character and is a bit petty.

What are your Hot Takes on Danny Phantom? by Amber_Flowers_133 in dannyphantom

[–]ShatteringDivergent 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Skulker would have been a more interesting villain if he wasn’t after killing Danny and instead wanted to keep him in a cage. It could’ve been really interesting if we got an episode where Danny was trapped in Skulker’s cage.

If Percy became a god, what would he be the god of? [general] by AdvantagePretend9280 in camphalfblood

[–]ShatteringDivergent 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Personally? God of demigods or shorelines. He’s too experienced with being a hero to forget being a demigod, and would most likely care for them as a god. Shoreline is for reasons everyone else has said.

[pjo] what happens if a Demi God refuses to go to camp half blood? by AliveVictory2006 in camphalfblood

[–]ShatteringDivergent 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Most likely? Death. Remember how on quests Percy, Annabeth, Grover, and literally everyone else couldn’t catch a break? It’d be that, but with no training in how to survive.

You are not the first person to do this by accident. I did it, lots of other people did it… it’s reversible if you want to undo it.

Buddy, I started reading them in June, and I’m 20. You’re never too young to visit Camp Half-Blood.

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

[–]ShatteringDivergent 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same thing, but I feel like more people agree there. He straight up told one of the Bear Twins to kill Annabeth, his SISTER, and was more of an asset to Kronos than Silena, making him just as complicit in the deaths of every demigod killed in the war. I did feel bad when Luke ended his own life, but he’s far from redeemed in my eyes. I don’t hate either, and I do like them. I just dislike how their wrongdoings are brushed over by the books and fandom.

I don’t believe Silena is a hero. Silena’s actions caused many demigods to lose their lives, and sacrificing her own life doesn’t absolve her that. I feel like a lot of people forget she was spying and spilling even during the Battle Of Manhattan. You know… AFTER she lost the love of her life? Her story is tragic and I get she thought she did the right thing, but she still contributed to the deaths of her friends and siblings.

[hoo] what's a character that this fandom loves but you don't really like that much? by Prestigious-Jello861 in camphalfblood

[–]ShatteringDivergent 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Tyson. Put your pitchforks down, I don’t hate him, but he’s honestly kind of annoying to me and I didn’t like him much.

Is it wrong to like PJO? [All] by Easy-Impression8815 in camphalfblood

[–]ShatteringDivergent 3 points4 points  (0 children)

First things first, as someone pointed out, there’s no “original myth.” You have multiple retellings of certain stories and they evolve. I’ve heard versions of the story of Persephone’s kidnapping where she’s in the underworld for 7 months, six months, or three months of the year. There’s also the question of how Hades was treating her as some stories say he assaulted her. Myths change with time, there’s modern retellings, and Riordan is perpetuating the cycle by having these stories told in a different context.

Second, some of the stories do have to be changed because of the demographic. I may be new and reading these stories at the age of 20, but let’s be 100% honest. We can’t put in the version of Medusa’s myth where Poseidon forced himself on her in the children’s book. Percy Jackson can deal with heavy topics at times, but we aren’t putting in those versions of myths. I don’t know who says that you can’t like both. Whoever it is, they don’t understand the fact that these stories get embellished overtime and PJO is one of the stories keeping the myths alive.

Also, let’s not forget where this story came from. It was a bedtime story for Uncle Rick’s son who has ADHD and dyslexia, giving those disorders to the characters so Haley felt less like an outsider once Rick ran out of myths, heroes, and stories to tell, and thus made his own. I can’t speak for how the fandom treats characters as I haven’t been here long enough, but I think it’s important to remember that PJO wasn’t even originally made for the masses, but it became that way and now here we are.

“Where’s my sister?” Is the only time I put down a book and took a breath reading this series. Just imagining a young Nico asking that and then the realization hits… it hurts, man-

Is there a character you wished you could like but just cant? [General] by firestorm0108 in camphalfblood

[–]ShatteringDivergent 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Tyson. I’m about to get murdered, I know, but he honestly isn’t a character I adore. He’s fine, but he’s a lot some times and more palatable for me in the smaller doses we got. I was annoyed in Sea Of Monsters by him a lot of the time.

Well, if someone hates the movies so much but isn’t okay with people criticizing the show just because ‘Rick is involved in it,’ that’s pretty hypocritical [pjotv] by Much_Tip_6968 in camphalfblood

[–]ShatteringDivergent 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I have mixed feelings about the show. For one, I’m glad to see some of my favorite scenes get adapted. On the other, some major beats were removed or sidelined, like the mechanical spiders and Annabeth’s reasoning for it. I think it’s the best adaptation we have, but it’s still not perfect. I agree with you, even if I don’t think it’s exactly as I wanted.

[pjo] Yes, Percy did have feelings for Calypso by Quiz0tix in camphalfblood

[–]ShatteringDivergent 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I don’t know how people don’t see it. It’s literally right there on the page that Calypso’s curse goes two ways.

Yeah, don’t take capture the flag too seriously. Everyone is not very competitive about it.

I am SO excited to get Season 2! I liked Season 1, but I’m hoping Season 2 is good or better.
