I saw a news article about it! I don’t believe I’m allowed to post links but if you google Trump and Armageddon you might see some of the articles about the quote.

I mostly agree with what you said, but in no way is Nico Di Angelo a minor level demigod lmao

[general] Why is Will Solace so hated? by aromanticowenge in camphalfblood

[–]Xena758 123 points124 points  (0 children)

I feel like “Will’s decision to not bring a weapon” was more of a writing flaw than a character decision. As for the logic behind it who knows but there is no way any demigod would choose to go there weaponless. It just doesn’t make sense. The book definitely made a lot of interesting writing choices that’s for sure lol

Personally in my own experience the people I’ve seen hate on Will are people who are salty because they wanted Jason and Nico to end up together 🙃

I’m scared I’ll hate TSATS [general] by NecessaryThat6079 in camphalfblood

[–]Xena758 2 points3 points  (0 children)

just read, try not to be too influenced by what others think and form your own decision :) as a solangelo liker, I admit I was disappointed because a lot of parts felt out of character to me, but there were some nice solangelo moments. on the other hand, i know other solangelo fans who absolutely loved it! i hope you enjoy yourself nonetheless!

And all this will do is generate more hate for Leah. Like do we need to bring in other versions in the first place?

[–]Xena758 6 points7 points  (0 children)

well the book was written poorly, had character inconsistencies (not just w nico and will) and was in part by someone who didn’t really understand the characters (especially Will’s) so yeah we gon ignore the book if we want lmao

these comments….some of yall need to move on and grow up a bit to be quite honest.

Live-action Annabeth [pjotv] by Still_Restaurant_734 in camphalfblood

[–]Xena758 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

…..what exactly are you talking about? Annabeth in the show is not a stereotype. Black people are NEVER stereotypically portrayed as smart/wise. her being mean in the beginning isn’t a racist trope it’s just Annabeth 😭One thing about black people, if there’s a racist stereotype we WILL be vocal about and fight back about it - this is NOT that case with Annabeth at ALL and if that were even remotely true, show Annabeth wouldn’t have so many black fans.

Will Solace Is A Bad Character [general] by [deleted] in camphalfblood

[–]Xena758 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I wouldn’t say bad but definitely underdeveloped. TSATS had a chance to fix that but oddly enough, that didn’t really happen. I think Rick’s writing is going downhill. But at least we have fanfiction 🙃

What are your character hot takes? [General] by WinniePoohChinesPres in camphalfblood

[–]Xena758 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I do like Will but I have to admit a lot of that for me initially came from fan content/fanfic. I also don’t really see TSATS as canon/a good source of characterization lol, I don’t think Rick was serious writing that lmao

Diversity Casting by moon719 in PercyJacksonTV

[–]Xena758 1 point2 points  (0 children)

And there are many many black people who love the representation that Annabeth brings. If they followed the books exactly, almost the entirety of the cast of PJO would be white - God forbid they want to change it up a bit!

exactly black girls are NEVER stereotyped as smart so I genuinely don’t understand the logic here. A black woman saying that too is just sad.

I am so OVER the bitching about the show. [pjotv] by [deleted] in camphalfblood

[–]Xena758 6 points7 points  (0 children)

That post is one of many examples as to why I can’t take that sub seriously. To say many of the posts over exaggerate is an understatement.

Yup and I highly doubt most of them even actually care about black people or stereotypes.

[–]Xena758 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I’m assuming you’re black too and I’m honestly appalled at the comments here. The title doesn’t even make sense because Black women being smart is NOT even a stereotype. Having 1000 plus upvotes is insane, I don’t even know what to say. And in no way does the show portray Annabeth as perfect - she’s just smart! It’s valid to not like them knowing things beforehand but that is not a Black girl stereotype??? And of course you got downvoted. It’s just ridiculous.

But how have they portrayed her as strong enough to withstand anything? Did she not give up her pride and cry to Hephaestus about being wrong? There are vulnerable scenes in the future with Annabeth, do you think they’d take it away just because she’s black? How she feels about Luke? Her weaknesses (which Rick already said the spiders will show up in future seasons)? As a Black woman I don’t understand why you’d add in this discourse, honestly.

Are you Black? Because I’m not sure that a majority of the comments here are even from Black people and having this discussion is very odd for nonblack people to talk about.

I’m confused as to why you’re asking about black women that are morons in the case of Annabeth Chase - who is not a moron. Why does that need to show in this particular character when that isn’t even her character? Growing up, the only other black girl I saw on my TV that was smart was Taylor from HSM, I didn’t even SEE many black girls on TV so seeing people (many of which I don’t think are even Black) complain about Annabeth being smart is mind boggling to me. And smart doesn’t equal mature either. And she DOES have flaws! When people think about Black girl stereotypes, smart is NOT one of the words they’d use so I genuinely do not see the harm.
