LET'S TALK PERCY JACKSON

how did you find out about PJO?: LJ friends several years ago.
favorite PJO/HoO characters, and why: I really adore Percy. He sees the word in a tongue-in-cheek way, never taking things too seriously unless it's really warranted. He's very down to earth and well adjusted. He loves his mother and his girlfriend. His fatal flaw is that he can't give up on this friends. What's not to love? I also love Poseidon because I find him hilarious, and I love it when he is awkward because it doesn't happy often. Sally is a flawless character, a goddess among women, a self-sacrificing mother who eventually comes into her own. I also like Annabeth because underneath her brainy and brave exterior she's really just insecure and lonely. Oh gosh, I just adore everyone. I could go on forever.
favorite PJO/HoO books, and why: I guess I really enjoyed The Titan's Curse because it has some interesting new characters, but really it's hard to pick. The Lost Hero was my least favorite ( ... )

Your answers! I love them. And your characters, and ships, and the fact that we're both from Minnesota, haha.

Just saw the fic you wrote for mediate89 in December and I'd love to see more of that! Friends?

Hi! AtLA is one of my favorite shows!! I can't wait for Legend of Korra. :D

Well, I don't know what you've watched yet but I like My Girl and Greatest Love! I'm currently watching Shut Up! Flower Boy Band and I'm really loving it! If you've seen my tumblr you will see me gush all about it. xD

My friends have also rec'd me You're Beautiful, Wild Romance, and Scent of a Woman. I haven't watched any of those but their tastes are pretty similar to mine so.

Also if you're into jdrama, but I would also recommend Hana Yori Dango! :D

I approve of a great deal of this. Especially Gundam Wing and Sherlock and Jason/Tim. So basically yes, we should be friends.

LOL I always need more friends.

Sorry though if my journal updates are super random and sporadic.

how did you find out about PJO?: I've learnt to trust my best friend's little brother's taste in books!

favorite PJO/HoO characters, and why: Annabeth is my girl. I love that she's so tough and snarky but she cries at things that, you know, would make you cry. Nothing annoys me more than the equation of NO EXPRESSION OF EMOTION EVER with strength in characters (or, like, real people). I approve of the occasional shed tear.

favorite PJO/HoO books, and why: Difficult question, but I'm going to say The Last Olympian because it was just a really satisfying ending... and of course The Son of Neptune, because, Percy.

favorite moment from the series, and why: Such difficult questions! I think it's got to be after the Battle of Olympus and the gods are trying to be all generous and Percy just totally shuts them down and the gods are all like, 'wtf who do you think you are, puny demigod?' and Annabeth had her hands over her mouth. Her eyes were shining. And ( ... )

how did you find out about PJO?: I saw the preview for the movie and what like WHAT IS THIS? IT LOOKS AMAZING, I LOVE GREEK MYTHOLOGY. Then I went out and got the first book from the library (after I saw the movie) and the rest is history.
favorite PJO/HoO characters, and why: I'm in the "norm" when it comes to favorites in this series. I love Annabeth the most. She's just such a BAMF. I love her strength, but then I also love the vulnerability that she tried to hide from the world. She gets to be a strong fighter who doesn't need the hero to save her. I have a lot of feelings about her (and about people who hate her as well). And then I love Percy. Because he's Percy and he's funny and listening inside his head is the best thing ever. I can't imagine the books without him and part of the reason HoO isn't quite the same is because it's missing Percy's little snark comments inside his head! Oh and I also really enjoyed Beckendorf and Sally.
