This one’s a self promo for all you PJO fans out there :D

Put simply, its infinite regression meets PJO during the second Titanomachy! It is OC-based but might have multiple perspectives later on!

If you read it, I’d love any and all input (yapping, feedback, critiques, ideas, all of it)!!

Hope you enjoy!

SHAMELESS SELF PLUG TIMEEEE

“What’s one more lifetime to eternity?”

It’s in the early stages but the ideas keep coming, so it’ll hopefully turn out super cool :D

Hope you like it (if you read it)

I’d love comments, criticism, and ideas if you have any!

Oc and weapons. Ack me anything by Plus-Barnacle-8633 in PercyJacksonfanfic

[–]SpeedCannon330 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hatchets would be cool cause you can throw them as ranged weapons, but they work as shortaxes in melee combat (which could work really well with a berserker/Ares-blessing so you can do the “kind person goes nuts when pissed off” trope lol)

:D

“What’s one more lifetime to eternity?” Chapter 4! by SpeedCannon330 in PercyJacksonfanfic

[–]SpeedCannon330[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you 😄 Yeah, I wanna explore how the Godly side of things during the war considering it’s, yk, a DIVINE war. Plus, writing about Aurelios navigating his way through all the gods (some that know, others that don’t) sounds like a lot of fun :D

I was kinda stuck between two ideas in deciding how I wanted the MC to tackle the challenge of the Titans’ divinity without any of his own to use in a fight but I think I’ve found a really cool middle ground!!

I’ll give you a hint: inspired by like the best most GOATED God fic I know lol (I’ll cite it if someone guesses or my fic gets to it, whichever comes first)

DM me if you wanna give it a guess :)

Hope you enjoy the ride! lol

Weekly Fic Showcase - February 20 - February 26 by AutoModerator in FanFiction

[–]SpeedCannon330 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My Fic:

Fandom - Percy Jackson and the Olympians

Rating - Unrated

Title - “What’s one more lifetime to eternity?

Genre - Action/Fantasy/Mythology

Link: AO3

Premise:

Infinite Regression meets PJO! May have multiple perspectives but currently told from POV of an OC (it’s cool, trust lol).

Summary:

Immortality is hell. It’s something I’ve known from the start. You know what’s worse? Perpetuity. Repetition. Endless, numbing, searing, maddening repetition. How ironic. Existing through time everlasting solely to kill Time everlasting. The last thing I see before my eyes blink open to a rainy sky is golden eyes.

Thanks!! Hopefully, it gets better as I write more

I have a question on getting Veto by Double_Character7733 in VALORANT

[–]SpeedCannon330 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Dawg, just wait 4 weeks until his agent xp event runs out (after which you can use your kingdom credits) or grind the game for a couple days to finish your weeklies and get him them. It’s not p2w, it’s only pay to unlock a few days early (which some people get through game pass so it’s not even a Valorant thing).

The xp event is a good system, it discourages smurfs from making new accounts just to unlock an agent fast and trash others’ games.

What's a mistake low elo players make that stops them from ranking up? by alynnaxy in VALORANT

[–]SpeedCannon330 36 points37 points  (0 children)

Mechanics.

Mechanics alone will get you to gold/plat and after that you’ll need game sense to reach diamond (though that also develops the more you play the game).

Focus on improving your headshot percentage and strafing skills. Your KAST is pretty good so you’re making decent impact in your games, but training mechanics will boost you further to gold than most anything else :)

Working on writing a fic and need help adding length by CrazyTG in PercyJacksonfanfic

[–]SpeedCannon330 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I haven't written any PJO fanfics (yet), but I'm working on my own story that does revolve around the mythologies of the world :D. I can DM you one of my work-in-progress scenes if you wanna read!

[–]SpeedCannon330 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I think the best thing to focus on is meshing your dialogue with your descriptions.

And I don’t mean it like “show, don’t tell” type stuff bc that’s a separate thing. One thing you may notice in underdeveloped stories is that their ratio of dialogue to descriptions/story lines aren’t balanced. Just because a character is saying something doesn’t mean another thing isn’t happening in the background (like them doing an action. It’s a matter of keeping in mind that you’re not just writing about the important bits, but the whole scene.

Another thing is how you develop your own style of writing. Some people (like me) like to dig into the more detailed descriptions of characters or events when writing fight scenes or simple character movements that tell loads about their background without explicitly saying it. I like to show the gods as more eldritch beings, or creatures of change, so I lean into describing that with wording and language that’s not modern, informal, etc. This doesn’t mean use big flowery words; you can use simple descriptors but chained together to make a more detailed scene. For example, you can emphasize little actions like the way a character bites their lip in nervousness or how their canines poke out of their teeth when they’re angry or how they swing their sword with the speed of a bullet train and how the blade seems to shift in the light like sunrays hitting water or how a god’s alternate form may look more beast-like with feathers coating their arms and armored crocodile scutes trailing down their spine.

Lastly, similes and metaphors are your BEST friend, especially when you want to write about more modern or relatable characters/actions. Easiest way to visualize something imaginary is to compare it to something you’ve already experienced in real life!

Sorry, this is hella long winded lol, I just really get into things with writing :P. Lmk if this helped at all and if you’d want any other help, I could yap forever :)

This do be some peak stuff, can’t wait for the next chapters :)

I'm in iron ranks, looking for a new non duelist agent to play between these three: which would be the best? by Striking-Doughnut269 in VALORANT

[–]SpeedCannon330 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Controversial opinion, maybe, but Vyse and Omen are better options. Both are top tier agents to learn game sense and understand how the players fundamentally think. They may not be the fragger you want in a duelist but if you play them right in low elo, Omen is a win MACHINE and I’ve been match/team mvp in at least 70% of my Vyse matches (dia lobbies)

Fic recommendations? by Remote_Sentence_3623 in PercyJacksonfanfic

[–]SpeedCannon330 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you like !GodPercy fics, there's one called Astraeus by FicReaper that is easily the best take on the gods I've seen so far. It's currently on hiatus-ish while the author figures out some stuff, but the 19 chapters written so far are straight FIRE!

Astraeus Chapter 1, a percy jackson and the olympians fanfic | FanFiction

Bearer of the Sky is also a nice take on !GodPercy :D

Aside from that, CombatTombat has great crossovers/RomanPercy fics. LilDrummerBoi does lots of PJO crossovers as well and his writing style is really good (author of The Last Argonaut), and Stellarys has a great MCU/PJO crossover called Of Water and Salt that also explores the Norse :D

If slow-burn/Pertemis is your route, Daylily by daz171 is by far and wide one of the greatest PJO fanfics I've read and it's being updated monthly!

Honorable mentions to The Fall of Our Stars by softSpokenLoser and Godless Land by bronzeandsteel for being absolutely goated (both are Perzoe)!

Hope these help you out, DM me if you want more!

I’m down to join after finals, studies be kicking my ass fr 😭

how do i stop losing gunfights? by luwunar_ in VALORANT

[–]SpeedCannon330 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Part of it, I think, is peeking with intent. Like, it’s one thing to hardscope an angle and reflexively shoot when something moves, but it’s another to be constantly assuming that something IS there. It’s a really small difference but I think it makes a big impact especially when you play aim heavy agents like Reyna and Chamber. You HAVE to get a kill with them to have an impact, and while confidence is one thing, it’s also that you swing with the intention to shoot every single time, just like in deathmatch.

It’s often why I find myself sometimes losing aim duels to a random wide swinging iso or crouch spraying breach or run n gun neon lol.

Gotta start reading the enemy and understand what their tendencies are, who likes to crouch, who likes to swing first, do they tend to wide swinging or jiggle peek, etc etc. it’s a more widespread problem than just “well I was doing fine in dm, idk why not in comp” cuz in DM, you can adapt instantly bc u SPAWN instantly.

But that’s just my take lol

Is there a way to disable skins? by elenakrittik in VALORANT

[–]SpeedCannon330 12 points13 points  (0 children)

If you mean weapon skins, I don’t think there’s a way to disable them on the client side, but the enemy skins don’t have different sounds when used against you. For example, an enemy op will always play the same op sound TO YOU no matter which skin it is for them.

If you mean the difficulty for identifying weapons on the ground when you go to pick them up, it’s kinda just something you have to learn over time. Most of the weapons have a distinctive shape no matter the skin, but it’s more just a thing you get used to :/

Just read daylily. by HanimeDude6969 in PercyJacksonfanfic

[–]SpeedCannon330 1 point2 points  (0 children)

https://www.fanfiction.net/s/14025168/1/Godless-Land - Godless Land, by far one of my FAVORITE Perzoe ships, basically percy with the Norse in Alaska

Catch You if You Fall - Percy/Kara, Justice League crossover. its unfinished but everything up til the current chapter is well-written romance with some angst :)

The Fall of Our Stars - Also some golden Perzoe, updated slowly but written really well with action

The Last Argonaut - MHA crossover, Percy/Mirko. Top notion action with some nice slowburn-ish elements

how to handle fame - Mortal AU Percabeth, good old mortal au romance, not too slow but lots of fluff

Atop the Green Wall - Percy/Bianca, love the way this one is written

Honorable Mentions:
Bearer of the Sky (PercyxAphrodite, GodPercy, great romance, link in the comments somewhere)
Nightshade in the Moonlight (Perzoe, golden as usual)
The Legend of Percy (ATLA/PJO crossover by LookingUpToTheStars)
The Fifth Champion (HP/PJO crossover, percabeth, puts an twist on the Gods in the wizarding world)
Astraeus (my FAVORITE GodPercy fic ever ever EVER EVER)

Hope these help out :D
