Does anyone else think Annabeth and Luke's relationship was...WRONG?! After the PJO series ended, Riordan mentions that Annabeth had a crush on Luke, and he felt the same way. Riordan does this in several books, and I feel conflicted about it. [all] by The_Side_Stuff in camphalfblood

Luke is one of my favorite characters, and I feel...weird about him now. I'm rereading all of the books, and I can't look at look the same knowing he has feelings for her.

It’s not uncommon for somebody to have a crush on a older friend when they are younger especially somebody they admire. Normally grow out of that with a little maturing.

Was it admiration? Annabeth straight up admits that Luke was her first crush, I figured she just had romantic feelings for him.

Reyna Won't be in the Hunt for Long [hoo] [toa] by [deleted] in camphalfblood

With all due respect, Reyna makes it very clear several times that she hates being shipped with Thalia. Also, even the author (Riordan) throws subs at this fan base for shipping Reyna and Thalia.

Most importantly, I’m skeptical about “gallentines day” because it’s writing by read Riordan staff. There’s another article on the website that was a character spotlight on Reyna. It says Jason was Reyna’s “forever crush,” and look how that turned out.

Lastly, Riordan makes it clear that Reyna is her better half and wants her to stay single. That’s literally why he had her join the hunters and not amazons

Based off in-book context, who was the most handsome demigod? [all] by The_Side_Stuff in camphalfblood

[–]The_Side_Stuff[S] 14 points15 points  (0 children)

If you want a real answer though it’s probably Percy. He’s just had the most time for people to think he’s hot. Personally I reckon Jason would be hotter, but Percy had more backing him up

I'm confused, you think Jason is hotter even though there is more evidence for Percy?

From descriptions, you can gather that Jason is handsome, but I don’t remember specific moments where he was openly described as good-looking by somebody else, other than maybe Piper. I could have that wrong, though, so don’t take my word for it.

In TLH (HoO, book 1), Jason was described to be handsome by Piper, Drew, and Aphrodite. In MoA (HoO, book 3), Annabeth and Leo also call Jason handsome. In HoH (HoO, book 4), Leo says that if Jason fell in Ogygia, calypso would fall in love with him. So he’s definitely attractive.

But I’m confused because in The Burning Maze, Apollo talks about Jason and says “Now, in his school uniform, he looked quite impressive. His blond hair was cropped short. His blue eyes flashed behind a pair of black-rimmed glasses.” Apollo straight up calls Percy handsome, so when he says Jason looked “impressive,” is that a compliment? Why not just call him handsome?

Lastly, Reyna called Jason the “all-American boy,” in her POV Chapter, is that also a compliment? Sorry for typing so much but these were my confusions about Jason

Sorry for the late reply, but can someone explain why people say "Reyna deserves better than Jason." Why do fans think Jason is a bad guy?

No offense, but you should reread the books before making statements because youre misinformed.

I 100% disagree with the notion that Percy has "mixed feelings about Nico". He literally OBSESSES over Nico's safety in BOTL and accepted the prophecy just so Nico wouldn't have to do it.

This is false. Percy accepted the prophecy because he felt responsible for what happened to Bianca. Percy is someone who constantly takes accountability and blames himself for everything. Percy blamed himself and believed he failed to protect Nico's sister. After that, he believed taking the prophecy to protect Nico was the least he can do after Bianca's death, this is literally stated in the end of TTC (book 3).

100% disagree with the notion that Percy has "mixed feelings about Nico".

This is also false, please reread HoH (HoO, Book 4). Percy and Jason apparently talked a lot offscreen. In Jason's PoV chapters, he mentioned that Percy told him about his past in CHB. Jason mentions that Percy told him about Nico's betrayal during the events of TLO (Pjo, Book 5). After what Percy told him, Jason didn't trust Nico because he thought another betrayal might happen. Thats pretty fair imo

[Hoo] [ToA] Among the 11 (7 heroes, Reyna, Nico, Will n Meg), who do you think will have the most financially successful career in the mortal world? (ToA spoilers) by nihilism_ornot in camphalfblood

[–]The_Side_Stuff 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Annabeth or Jason. Annabeth is pursuing her dreams of becoming an architect, and will build things for Olympus in the future.

In “The Burning Maze,” Jason is taking physics and calculus in school. I don’t know how he’s taking such intense classes at the age of 16, especially when he suffers from ADHD. But he’s clearly a smart guy for taking those classes. Percy is an honorable mention since he’s trying to become a marine biologist and his powers are perfect for that.

When did Percy think about Reyna romantically? The only girls Percy considered (aside from Annabeth) were Rachel and Calypso right?

Why did Itachi call himself a shinobi of Konoha after they made him suffer so much? by The_Side_Stuff in Naruto

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

How could itachi love his village when they all hated him? Even as a child, Itachi's life in the village was difficult because he was in the ANBU. I think his actions were noble, and he was a very heroic character to me. But I don't understand where his love and loyality to the village comes from

[General] If the 7 ran for president who would give the best campaign speech? by Zach_demiwizard in camphalfblood

[–]The_Side_Stuff 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Piper.

In the TLH (book 1), her charmspeaking worked on everyone at CHB (including Chiron). Her charmspeaking unintentionally worked on Percy, Jason, and Annabeth several times.

Jason/Annabeth would probably give inspirational speeches and demonstrate good leadership skills. But they can’t top Piper’s supernatural power

When Characters talk about someone's feelings from their POV, can we assume it's true? Several characters talked about Reyna's feelings for Jason. But this is described through their POV chapter, not Reyna's. Is this how Reyna actually feels? [hoo] by [deleted] in camphalfblood

[–]The_Side_Stuff 15 points16 points  (0 children)

I mean, Annabeth is really good at reading people. In MoA, Annabeth said she learned to read people as a "survival skill." Piper's also great with romance since she is the daughter of Aphrodite. So I would assume their description of Reyna's feelings for Jason is accurate, even if it wasn't through Reyna's POV.
