Leo has fire powers, and it is in fact a big deal
Or, Leo ii
Leo meets his big crazy family. Lots of names. He may have trouble keeping them straight.
There is a curse on Hastephus cabin, that's interfering with the workings of things they are trying to build. They don't feel satisfied by their weapons, and other things seem to malfunction. It seems to have dampened their spirits. That and Chris's death. Do they have artists block?
Dead amigo Chris's Dragon is malfunctioning, and tearing up the camp. They hate to have to kill it, but it's too much of a danger to keep around.
The last Child of Hastephus with fire, started a major historical fire. That ability is rare. They are seen as harbingers of disaster. Leo asks for a moment alone, and reveals to the reader audience that he has the fabled fire.
Now here, the odds are stacked very much in the favor of the party. Leo has fire. Jason is the Roman son of one of the big three. And Piper has corrosion +50- I mean super rare charmspeak-, important dreams, and a direct, by her name prophecy. Not that the first of Pipers has been revealed yet, but I do remember that being a thing. Also, they are the children the gods dropped the ball (deal) on.
Let's look back. Sadie had a massive magic bost, coming from the god of magic being her patron. Wouldn't it have been cool if Carter was the best mage, due to the gods going into others heads. Warrior chicken Sadie! Or maybe, other gods, and new roles to play. Zia was a bad fit for the one she got, after all. Anyways, they were both wizards, and while they could pull off some bullshit, it had rules.
Percy's powers came from being a child of the big three. Annabeth had “god given” smarts, and an invisible hat, and pulled off her magic by being Goddamned Annabeth Chase.
Piper and Leo have both been made the most powerful of their godly parents' children. Can one of them be a badass normal please! Leo is a gadgeteer genius who builds problems, and creates things to solve his problems. Maybe he could build a fireproof suit, instead of being fire resistant.
Maybe Piper is too charming for her own good, and through has her beauty and her wits gets into just as much trouble as out of it, and has to work for her other achievements.
Maybe the third person on their quest is a son of Hermes, whose loyalty is consistent. I'll imagine more on this later, I'm sure, but for now, imagine.

Me aged 10 (because I apparently read these books much younger than I thought), reading The Lost Hero: "Where the fuck did Percy go?! Who's Jason?"
Me aged 21, reading Nona the Ninth: "Where the fuck did Gideon go?! Who's Nona?"
#you can tell why these two series are such hyperfixations for me#incidentally. both Jason and Nona die tragically young.#I mean Nona didn't technically die. but she kinda did. we'll never be able to see her again#and if you're about to say that Gideon wasn't the narrator in HTN then reread the fucking book my guy. she was narrating the whole time!#the locked tomb#gideon the ninth#harrow the ninth#nona the ninth#alecto the ninth#tlt#pjo#pjo tv show#pjo fandom#pjo series#heroes of olympus#the lost hero#jason grace#tlt or tlt?

Rick Riordan seems (in my personal opinion), to try to paint Rome as more brutal and cruel. Constantly reminding us that they don't tolerate weakness. But I don't see that as true. I really don't. Rome is not worse, and Rome is not cruel and barbaric. Rome is more regal and just, if anything! Rome is home to fine culture and good rulers. Rome is probably better then Greece to me. New Rome sounds way better than Camp Half-Blood. So don't try to tell me about Lupa the wolf who kills the weak. Don't give me that. I know the truth, and the truth is that Rick Riordan made Rome sound super appealing.
#fair warning: i haven't actually started rereading the son of neptune yet#this is just my impression based on what rick wrote in the lost hero#and i still think rome sounds amazing (besides lupa)!#new rome/camp jupiter sounds better than camp half-blood#percy jackson#pjo#pjo hoo toa#camp jupiter#new rome#roman gods#roman mythology#anti lupa#heroes of olympus#hoo#heroes of olympus series#rick riordan#riordanverse

~ books read in 2024 ~
#13: The Lost Hero by Rick Riordan
Even before he got electrocuted, Jason was having a rotten day.
Rating: 5/5
Three Sentence Review: I am so excited to start my re-read of the Heroes of Olympus series. It has been a while, so my memory of how some of the specific plot points in this story were connected was a bit hazy, but it made it almost like I was reading it anew. The expansion of Riordan's universe into Roman myths still stands up quite well this many years after I first read it!

holy sh holy sh holy sh AMY YOU LIKE PJO :00000
I must ask
if you could dump blitzo, fizz, and Ozzie into the pjo fandom, what godly parents would they have? (idk why I asked bc they're kinda givens for Ozzie and Blitzo but y'know I got excited)
anyway toodles, stay awesome! :)
HI HI HI! I adore pjo reading the books is how my English got strong XD
R they given for Ozzie and blitz? :0
My first thought for blitz was as a Hephaestus kid with fire powers (like Leo my fav lil guy) and he accidentally burnt his mom (like Leo again XD) and fizz
Like it would be a rly intresting parallel to the accident I think
My heart says kid of Aphrodite Fizz but logically…. He’s an actor and clown, clown would like up with Hermes kids I think…but Dionysus is the god of acting.
I don’t like either of those 😭😭😭😭😭
Apollo is the god of singing I think I which fits fizz well sooo I’ll go with that 🙂↕️🙂↕️
And Ozzie :0 would he be a demigod or like a god? If Demi god hmmmm
Hephaestus again fits but nooot happening (unless blitz is like a Hermes kid instead cuz I feel like that fits him too)
Soooo maybe son of Aphrodite? I feel like that fits best
TO RECAP
🩷🩷🩷
Fizz son of Apollo
Blitz son of Hephaestus
Ozzie son of Aphrodite
🩷🩷🩷
(Unrelated but mammon is son of Zeus and bee is daughter of Demeter if they were demigods)
(Loona hunter of Artemis, 👀. Millie dauhhyer of ares, moxxie son of Athena)
#pansexuallypathetic#also non of them are Roman’s cuz the Roman’s are annoying <3#I say this like I didn’t rewrite the lost hero and Jason’s character until he was one of my favs 🩷#sorry this is so long I think I miss pjo 😭😭😭#time to reread

Get in loser, we are going weapons shopping
or Piper ii
*I like the Jason is lying AU. His internal monologue could have been going “what even is my life, how did a simple trip for information lead me to get abducted by greek Demigods! And now I'm being sent on a quest for them!” Ohh, maybe the information he was looking into was a possible lead on Thalia. And yet here he is on a flying dragon with two newbs, on a quest to save a Greek goddess. He's so done.
Anyways, back to business. ->
Annabeth gives a half hearted tour, which seems to fit the theme in this book, of no one doing anything particularly enthusiastically.
She talks about Claims, and how the gods disregarded the deal in their case. Children should be claimed at 13, as that's when the monsters get interested.
It kind of saddens me that Sally stayed with Gabe to keep Percy Safe, and Yet Piper is fine, and Leo was wandering the streets without being in half the danger.
--
Let's ask a question. How would things be different if Piper were the daughter of Hastephus, and Leo the son of Aphrodite? The gender of their parents could still work, because God's make a mockery of genetics.
Athena's children are thought children, could be either gender parents, just based on godly preference. And given some of the weird, weird things Zeus did, I don't think Aphrodite having a child by a beautiful woman would be all that out of place. And let's say Hastephus liked to hear Piper's dad's voice while working, and decided he wanted a child with those genetics.
So Piper is the one who is always tinkering with things, and Leo is very beautiful and convincing. He has trust issues from manipulative people who want him as arm candy or worse, and Piper, the girl who wants the world to take her mechanical aspirations seriously, and has a famous father people are always trying to be friends with her for.
They became friends after Piper got some girl who was trying to pressure Leo to back off. They bond with each other over their problems with creeps who bother them because they are pretty or female or whatevs, and Leo brainstorms with Piper about machines, and Piper provides what alibi she can for Leo. Leo makes a lot of jokes about Piper's pyromania, and Piper makes jokes about him being a crow, for his attraction to shiny. She reminds him of his mom. They talk shop together. Leo knows a fair amount about machines from his mom.
Piper likes Jason because he seems really interested in the things she builds, and unlike most people doesn't expect her to be into things just because her dad was. She wants to make her mark in the engineering world.
Leo likes Jason because he's really into Roman history, and his voice is amazing, and he respects Piper.
They are both trying to get his attention, because romantically, he's oblivious.
Or still trying to hold his cover.
Whatever works better for the story.
Alright, back to the story
--
Ok, so apparently Piper is planning some betrayal. Based on dreams she had. Wouldn't it be cool if she were like Ethan? That might be a neat twist.
Annabeth finally pops Piper's dream that Jason was her boyfriend. Piper cries about it, and her intended future betrayal, and laments that she can't have anything nice, and wrecks everything.
Annabeth takes her weapon shopping. Piper's interest is caught by the mostly ceremonial dagger of Helen of Troy.
We hear more about Annabeth's dream when talking about Hera. Piper notices a footprint by the door, and decides to investigate.
It's a wild Rachel!!
Apparently the Gods have gone silent. Everyone is unnerved.
Also, it's only been a summer.
Piper decides it might be a good idea to confess about the dreams (finally) when she gets a personal and direct prophecy that uses her name, and… is unusual in content and style of delivery.
Piper whites out.

I love rereading books that I remember very vague details about because it's like I get to experience it for the first time again. What happens next? Who knows? Definitely not me!
