01. Name: Dan
02. LJ Username ruins_of_sodom
03. How did you find out about the Percy Jackson series?
My kid cousins were crazy about the book series and have been egging me to read since the first book was released. Following my resignation from my last job and being really really bored, I decided to take a crack. The rest is, as they say, history.

|THE ORACLE|

04. What do you wish to accomplish in life?
Anything that helps people, particularly children. Specifically, I want to help children in preventing abuse and coping with the trauma of abuse, and grief.

05. What type of magical object would you like to have?
Magical pen, so I could draw or write wherever I am and not have to worry about losing any of that. Like, you just write in the air and all that information is stored for later retrieval.

06. What makes you like or dislike a persoN?
Close mindedness, really. Especially when they aren't considerate of other people's feelings, orientations and stands and they wouldn't even dream of listening to The Other Side.

07. Are you a leader or a follower?
Leader! I want to be involved, take charge, command and conquer. I want direct involvement in a project.

08. What would you consider your fatal flaw?
Self-criticism. I am horribly self-critical about anything, from my writing to my looks. I always feel as if I'm inferior to everyone with no specific point of reference.

09. What do you think are your top five best qualities?
01. Enthusiastic.

02. Cracking jokes, at even the worst possible moments.

03. Being creative! Writing and drawing are my guilty loves.

04. Loyalty

05. Facing fear with a straight face, a dirty joke and a harmful object (trufax)

10. What do you think are your top five worst qualities?
01. Mercurial nature. I'm extremely chatty one moment, and the next I'm invisible on every messenger

02. Unable to sugar coat things

03. Procrastination

04. Short temper

05. Being really bad at words

|THE SERIES|

11. Who is your favorite character in the Percy Jackson series?
God of Awesome, Apollo. Just reading about him makes me feel good about everything. He is that AWESOME.

12. Who is your least favorite character in the Percy Jackson series?
I'm being literal when we say 'least favorite' because they all appealed to me so much but the character I clicked with the least was Annabeth. She's a good character but I just can't connect very well with her.

13. If you could spend a day with one of the Percy Jackson characters, who would you choose and why?
Hermes. I want to travel, see a lot of things (lets just not mention my fear of heights and my fear of large bodies of water OKAY) and I'm sure Hermes knows the most interesting little spots in the whole world.

14. What is something you would change about the series?
Their ages, I guess. I was rather skeptical about people that young going on such a dangerous adventure, not to say that I don't think kids couldn't. But it's hard to wrap my mind around a 12 year old doing battle.

15. What is something you would never change about the series?
Everything else! I loved the series very very much and fell particularly hard for the characters. Always awesome to see such modern characters.

16. Which god do you feel the least likeness towards?
Aphrodite, I suppose. While I'm a believer in Love, I just don't care that much about my appearance. I'm a 'open drawer, pull out first shirt on top' kind of person. I barely even comb my hair or style it.
