Hey, Quick Question If You Don't Mind Me Asking But What Are Your Thoughts On Drew Tanaka As A Character

i dont feel anything about zoebrina. i think it’s kind of fucked up how the writers are determined to make zoe take everything chloe had instead of being her own, actually interesting character.

dont get me wrong, i like zoe. but thats it, i like her. i am not invested in her character and i doubt i WILL be invested in her character, especially if this plot of her having a dark past parallels chloe. because thats just rubbing more salt in the wound.

take her place in the group. take her old miraculous. TAKE HER WEIRD GAY SITUATIONSHIP WITH MARINETTE. and now she’s taking sabrina too! these two never actually interacted as far as i’m aware. i cannot get invested in their relationship.

imagine if you have a really toxic friendship with someone and you’re obsessed and dependent on them. one day you FINALLY stand up to that friend, with help. they fuck off out of your life. you never get proper closure about it. their SIBLING is suddenly everywhere and yeah fuck everything that just happened you’re in love with the sibling now!

am i the only one who finds that weird?

You got me sobbing in public, thank you very much for this 😃

When did it end? All the enjoyment, I'm sad again, don't tell my boyfriend. It's not what he's made for.

What was I made for?

'Cause I, don't know how to feel. But I wanna try, I don't know how to feel. But someday I might. Someday I might. I think I forgot how to be happy. Something I'm not, but something I can be, Something I wait for. Something I'm made for, Something I'm made for.

Got this notebook cuz it reminded me of Annabeth lol (ignore the bad pic quality my phone is shit)

Yes, and those who don't... Well... 🤷‍♀️

so we all agree drew was underused and was a teen girl suffering from the trauma of her dead older sister being a spy and she and piper made up after hoo/toa right

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

Jason's character arc was... something. In The Lost Hero, his quest for self-identity was promising and intriguing. But, the problems start seeping in with the House of Hades, where his arc is tied haphazardly and nebulously to a single choice: Greece or Rome. Now this isn't that bad per se; if it had been in skilled hands, this choice could've resulted in a somewhat satisfactory character arc. But since it was Rick, there were issues. For starters, the conflict regarding his choice between the two sides should've been fleshed out a lot more than it was in canon. There was hardly a paragraph or two dedicated to the conflict, and it was rather disappointing.

Secondly, Rick could've made it so much more interesting, or used this choice to develop a more intricate character arc. For example, maybe Jason has false expectations of freedom at camp halfblood, only for him to realise that it's hardly better than camp Jupiter, and that demigods are pawns regardless of their parentage. His arc could than be based around him addressing and dealing with this disillusionment.

Because I'm the same, I'm gonna interpret this as Daring purposely sitting behind Lizzie so that he could stare at her without looking obvious 🤭

*sighs* me and my delusions holding onto every crumb of dizzie I can get

Sometimes I do wonder if atla fandom like the REAL Zuko at all because the nonsense i'm reading about him....... 😭

"He's a prodigy" nope that's AZULA, that's the point of these two characters and he's also the weakest bender of the gaang

"He's friendly, charismatic and charming" that's Aang 😭

"He's the perfect boyfriend" he's possessive and jealous, that's why Mai dumped his ass and she was RIGHT

"He did nothing wrong" i'm not saying anything here lol

"He's the most mature person of the gaang" ??? PEOPLE BE SERIOUS

This character is crazy mischaracterized, like Aang actually 😭

I fucking hate my Dyslexia because it's not just letters and words that I read wrong, sometimes I somehow also read NUMBERS wrong.

Like a few hours ago I was making pancakes using those pancake mix that come in a box.

I was reading the instructions and read 1/4 cup of water (I decided to use milk instead because it's better)

So I poured a 1/4 cup of milk in my batter and when I looked at the instructions again for the next step, I notice that it actually says 1/2 and not 1/4.

I stared at the box to make sure that I wasn't going crazy and yup, it says 1/2

So to fix my mistake, I poured milk into my 1/2 measuring cup, and then I poured milk from the 1/2 measuring cup to the 1/4 measuring cup and made sure not to spill.

Once the 1/4 measuring cup was full. I poured whatever was left on the 1/2 measuring cup into my batter.

The pancakes turned out great but god damn was it a hassle.

Because seriously, how the fuck does one read NUMBERS wrong?

Here it is! So far it only has one chapter but I'll try to update this regularly

So there's this WebToon called "Batman: Wayne Family adventures" and I absolutely love it, I loved it so much that I sorta wanna write a crossover fanfic about it about Drew Tanaka becoming a Robin after the battle of Manhattan. I also wanna add some Drew x Leo in there if you know what I mean, not just because I like the ship but also because I wanna give my boy Leo a better life

Yes it will extend this fic to the events of TLH and I'll make Drew go on the mission instead of Piper

I already finished writing the first chapter but I'm posting this to ask if anyone would be interested in reading it because I need validation, so tell me if you wanna read it.
