EYO! WHAT'S SALLY JACKSON DOING AT THE ROOKIE??!
Her Character is just... 🥺
Thank you for providing a logical answer to my question lmao, but let's drive away from logical and think of some crazy fun shit.
Example:
Imagine if a mosquito bit a child of Aphrodite and it turns them into the most 💗gorgeous💗 mosquito by mosquito beauty standards!!
OR
If it bit a child of Apollo and that mosquito just starts ✨illuminating✨
Imagine if this mosquito is seen by another demigod and is like- "Hey Will, look! It's the mosquito that bit you!"
THE POSSIBILITIES!!
Random PJO thought: Would a mosquito die if they drink a demigods blood? Since Like- you know, they're half divine OR would they become ✨Super Mosquitoes✨
I AM INLOVE!!!!
Winx inspired Drew Tanaka🤓
It's no longer a head canon as I deem this to be 100% true
Hc that Drew is extremely bad at comforting people
Isn't it ironic how Ever after high, a show adamant on promoting the idea of creating new stories instead of retelling the same ones, was shut down by Disney, a studio that's obsessed with remakes and retelling the same stories ?
Don't mind me. Just venting for the millionth time about a cartoon that didn't get an ending and was basically murdered.🥺🥺
Facts 😌
Lizzie:Â Do you want to explain the text you sent me last night?
Daring:Â It was autocorrect.
Lizzie:Â Autocorrect wrote "You're so hot. Please step on me."?
Daring:Â Yes.
THIS! I FRIKIN HATED THIS!
Rick is an amazing writer but why the fuck didn't he utilize the Aphrodite kids better? Why did we never got to see how the other Aphrodite kids react to Silena's betrayal?
Why did we never get to see how the other kids view the Aphrodite cabin after the war?
We know that the Aphrodite kids weren't respected much at first but did the other cabins start to fear them because they realized what they could do? Or did they start to hate them and began to associate them as the cabin who housed/ are related to a traitor and a spy?
Drew was the only one who showed any kind of reaction to Silena's betrayal and her totally valid anger was portrayed so negatively that it pissed me off
I know that Rick Riordan only used Drew (and to some extent, the rest of the Aphrodite kids) as an accessory to make Piper look better. But what he should have done was use Drew and the other Aphrodite to actually make Piper better.
Piper was clearly a lonely kid who wanted a family, and the Aphrodite cabin could have been that family. Aphrodite is the goddess of love for crying out loud.
Rick could have made Piper be like "These guys are my family". He could have had Piper walk into the Aphrodite cabin and notice that they were a total mess (despite what the other campers say) divided into two groups, the ones who believed that Silena was a hero who gave up her life to save them. And the ones who believed that Silena was a traitor who tricked and lied to them.
Neither side is wrong of course but the Aphrodite kids refuse to believe that.
Since Piper is new, she could have been the fresh perspective they needed who isn't biased because obviously she hasn't met Silena and never will.
She could have asked questions, listen to stories, and offered a shoulder to cry on. Piper could have made them realize that neither side is wrong and that they shouldn't start hating each other because of another person's actions, while she herself realizes that ones own actions could affect others much more then she originally thought. She could have thought back to all the people she caused trouble for as well as her dad. She could have realized her own faults and immaturity, and become someone that represents storge. She could have helped the Aphrodite cabin truly heal.
rick not doing anything with the aphrodite cabin in relation to Silena and her betrayal of them in HOO with Piper as a POV character??? coward or idiot? i wouldn't be surprised if it never accrued to him to explore those emotions because he would have always planned to have them be a budget mean girls
imagine you are drew tanaka in the middle of a losing battle and being told that your sister, your big sister who you trusted, was a traitor.
imagine hearing everyone call her a hero and not understanding because she was a traitor. she was a traitor and people are dead and how many of them wouldn't be dead right now if not for her?
imagine you are all of fourteen, maybe fifteen, and you are put in charge of all your siblings during a battle many of them are going to see the end of all because your sister sided with the enemy.
imagine feeling like a monster in your own skin. imagine holding in this gigantic hatred for a person everyone is calling a hero. imagine watching the flames on your friends funeral pyres die out and wondering if they would've survived if Silena never defected.
imagine four months later, a girl comes in and tells you you're wrong to feel this way. a girl who never knew silena. a girl who was never stuck in a war in new york for days on end while the enemy attacked from all sides. imagine she tells you silena was a hero when she doesn't know what it's like to be betrayed by someone who was your sister.
imagine she takes the responsibility of a dozen or two campers off your back by becoming the new cabin counsellor and you can't help but feel thankful for it.
Don't mind me just posting my fan cast of Silena Beauregard for season 2 of Percy Jackson even though it's to late and they probably already have a Silena.
Half-Blood's and Mortals I present to you,
I found her while binge watching "The Rookie" and though she was gorgeous
PERIOD! ✨✨✨✨✨
Drew: beauty is in the eye of whomever is looking at me
