oh great oracle, pray tell
01. Name Emily

03. How did you find out about the Percy Jackson series? Well, my brother had heard from a friend that it was good. Me, being the book addict that I am, picked up the book once it got home and I WAS HOOKED. I read it before my brother got to it, even though he had originally wanted it. Oh well, he still read it eventually. I instantly loved the series and every single page was awesome!
the oracle
04. What do you wish to accomplish in life? I'm not quite sure, but someone worthwhile. Yeah, that sure would be nice.
05. What type of magical object would you like to have? An invisibility cloak. Hey, what can I say? I like Harry Potter, and if I had an invisibility cloak I could get away with anything!
06. What makes you like or dislike a person? A funny personality is pretty much what I look for in someone. Or if they're nice. If they're mean or controlling, I don't like them very much. The reason for the controlling? Yeah, I like my freedom.
07. Are you a leader or a follower? It depends on the situation. Sure, if we were stuck in an elevator, I might try to lead, but sometime I just can't be bothered doing all the thinking and I just go with the flow.
08. What would you consider your fatal flaw? Being lazy, or just being way to confused. When I get confused I get lazy and I just go with things, and then anything can happen. Absolutely anything.
09. What do you think are your top five best qualities? 01. I try to help. Even though sometimes I actually make things worse, but hey, it's the thought that counts, isn't it?
02. I'm kinda witty, and some people say I'm smart.
03. If I try to do something hard enough, I can do it...eventually. Though usually I can't always be bothered trying...
04. Reading. Some say it's nerdy, but it's fun for me. I can also remember random facts, but those are the only things I can remember. My memory is absolutely terrible for everything else.
05. Eating. I like eating, but that's not saying I can eat a lot. I get full pretty fast though. Yeah, unusual, but at least there's no chance of anorexia in my world.
10. What do you think are your top five worst qualities? 01. Being lazy as heck.
02. Sometimes being too shallow.
03. I'm kind of out of it. No one tells me anything important. Well, not that I can remember...which isn't very much.
04. My memory. It sucks. Period.
05. I don't always do what people say, and I have a minor habit of bugging people. Personally, it's fun but somehow I don't think it's so enjoyable for the victim...my bad.
the series
11. Who is your favorite character in the Percy Jackson series? Percy. He's funny, he's naive, and the story's told from his point of view. Okay, maybe that puts a slight bias on things, but I reckon he's still pretty awesome. Annabeth comes a close second.
12. Who is your least favorite character in the Percy Jackson series? I'd have to say...Kronos. He's evil, he's manipulative and he gives little kids nightmares (literally). Really, he's like a Greek version of Voldemort!
13. If you could spend a day with one of the Percy Jackson characters, who would you choose and why? Nico. He's pretty awesome himself, even though he was kind of moody in the Battle of the Labyrinth, but honestly, from the books I got the impression that not many people hung around with him.
14. What is something you would change about the series? Nah, it's pretty much good the way it is. Though maybe, I might put Thalia in a bigger role, but that's just me personally.
15. What is something you would never change about the series? The plot and the characters. It's all awesome and it flows fluidly.
etc
16. Pick a fictional character from any book/movie/tv show/etc. Which cabin would you place them in and more importantly why? Hermione Granger. First character that popped in my head. Well, I'd definitely say Athena, Cabin Six. Definitely. She's smart and a bit of a know it all. Yep, Athena.
16.Sort these words in order of appeal to you: beauty - glory - security - power - wealth - self-fulfillment - freedom. Explain your answer. Self-fulfillment, because if I'm happy, I'm happy; security, because keeping safe and secure is a must; power, because hey, who doesn't like a little power?; wealth, because it can get you places, no matter what others say; beauty, because well, it wouldn't hurt; and finally glory, which is last because glory is what others think of you. Sure it's nice, but it's not very necessary.
17. Which god do you feel the least likeness towards? Ares. Because he's all war-y. And stupid. Sorry, Ares, it's the truth.
