Your centaurs differ pretty wildly from the base DnD centaurs, but what I am curious about is old people. DnD centaurs travel in migrations that last generations and just leave the old or infirm behind to keep on (at which point they become Chiron types); how do your centaurs handle the elderly?

I actually had no idea that DnD centaurs did that, kinda cool, kinda wild cultural practice?? While I have always encouraged folks to use my workarounds and patches for centaurs in their TTRPG games, I actually have very little idea of what ideas are already in any of the systems that do actually include centaurs! my advice on centaurs is usually much more niche daily life stuff than most game developers and story writers tend to delve into.

For my centaurs the elderly are treated much like any human elder, what do you do with them? You cherish them!! Particularly with my centaurs, who across all their cultures depend a lot on family and group dynamics to compensate for the challenges that come with having a horse body. So elders would be an important font of knowledge and cultural memory! Now MY centaurs in particular tend to be pre-history to medieval style cultures, with access to higher medicines pretty much limited to the Port city of the Merchant's culture so living to a super advanced age would be fairly rare, but that would just make those who DO get to that age generally more important and respected (at least according to Nana)

As mobility issues arise with advanced age, there's lots of options to keep Nana mobile and healthy, from supportive corsets and harnesses to support the back to senior comfort hoof trims and special shoes- but most end up opting for being (literally) carted around in small wagons by the grandkids. Or the more independent minded seniors may drive their own carts with pet ponies and donkeys (or even goats!)

Of course wheelchairs are also an excellent choice to help with mobility at any age!

And even in my semi-nomadic Rider culture, elders are simply packed up with the yurts and tents and travel in the carts that way. No reason to leave them behind when you have stuff to be carrying anyway in my opinion!

they cast a 28 year old for Tyson 💀

[relevant rants: here and here]

yeah, i saw - i wasn't holding onto hope of them casting a disabled actor for Tyson (still disappointed, just not surprised) but casting a 28 year old for a middle schooler is really out of left field. It's just an odd choice? Particularly given how much they've been emphasizing age-accurate casting so far.

It makes me really wonder what major rewrites they have planned for Tyson's character. Because as things stand currently there's no way to make Tyson's existing character work with this casting. Tyson is supposed to be in Percy's grade, but Daniel Diemer sticks out like a sore thumb against the child actors. Tyson being in Percy's grade is pretty important for the entire arc of Sea of Monsters with the main character arc being Percy combating internalized ableism and establishing him as a character who stands up for other marginalized kids. If they remove that, what's Percy's arc going to be for that entire season? At what point are they going to establish that about his character? Or are they just going to exposition it at us like usual with nothing backing it up and no actual character progression? And in later seasons the age gap is only going to be more prominent - like how is Tyson going to work in BoTL or TLO? Are they planning on removing his character entirely for those scenes? Are they going to remove him as a recurring character in general? It'd be really weird if they killed him off or something.

I'm also afraid for if they do try to keep Tyson's disability coding in some form - cause there's kind of no good way it can go at this point. Either they completely erase Tyson's coding because they cast an abled actor for him and that messes up the entire arc of the book and his character particularly in relation to Percy, or they have an abled actor attempt to portray a character heavily coded as having down syndrome (and i believe they're already doing similar with iirc Chiron's actor is abled but they're doubling-down in the show on Chiron being disabled) and given how they've written the neurodivergence themes (or absence there of) in the show so far there's just no way that'd end well. Like, Tyson's characterization is a little questionable to begin with in the books, but given the show's writing so far it just feels like we're very rapidly ramping up for an extremely ableist characterization of Tyson. Like i'm sure Daniel Diemer is a great actor, but... i'm just getting real tired of the show erasing the entire premise of the series :T

anyways as per my initial post about pjo tv tyson casting theories i guess it's time for me to start tearing stuff apart with my teeth ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

[ask-modern-patrochilles]

Hey Pat this is a bit personal question. Feel free to choose to not answer me since it might be an uncomfy topic for you (im sorry im just a bit too curious)

How is your relationship with your dad. Also what do you think about fatherhood.

Patroclus: I haven’t heard from my biological father, or seen him, since I was 10. That’s when I was taken in by my adopted dad, Chiron. He’s never once made me feel like I wasn’t his own son, and we’ve been close since I came to live with him. We talk on the phone nearly every day, and Achilles and I go up to his cabin every once in a while to spend the weekend with him. The relationship I have with him is nothing like the one I had with my biological father.

Patroclus: He was actually a pretty good father the first few years of my life but once my mom got sick, things changed, he changed. After she died, I think the grief was too much for him to handle, and I reminded him too much of her. He couldn’t stand to be around me and was always short-tempered with me. I’m pretty sure he moved back to the small town in Greece where he grew up, but other than that I don’t know a thing about his life now.

Patroclus: And to answer your question, I think fatherhood sounds a little daunting— having to be responsible for an entire human being— but I’ve always wanted children. I hope when the day comes, I can be the father that I wish I had then for my kid, and create a home for them where they always feel safe and loved.

[pain-is-too-tired]

the thing is with apollo is that it makes sense he never touches on his grief in depth or more than he has to. because if you noticed, apollo narrates in a way that actively tries to get the reader to dislike or be annoyed with him via setting himself up with over-the-top dramatics or somehow getting them to pin blame onto him. his actual pain and suffering are often put aside to push his “anti-apollo” agenda, and apollo often is nuanced in a way where his flaws are completely exposed. touching upon his children’s death puts apollo in a sympathetic light (because he literally lost his kids in a situation completely out of his hand, no amount of reaching will actually make him be the bad guy) and exposes too much of who he really is, and therefore does not work for apollo’s purpose of antagonizing himself. (plus other reasons i don’t readily prepared)

Fair enough. Still feels wierd that he doesn't even casually think of them in some way. Or that we don't even get vague hints of their previous existence at camp. Especially in the cabin. Even if we didn't get Apollo fully grieving them, seeing evidence of the other three having grieved would been interesting. Or just vague hints of it.

I do kinda like hc of when children of Apollo grieve hard enough Hythcinths or some other plant related to Apollo's own grief grew around them. Would've been cool if the Hythcinths they had in the windowsill were ones that grew around the cabin after BoM. Something like that.

Idk. Feels wierd that we didn't even get hardly anything about any other children of Apollo in Toa. Even if small.

Like-fun fact- Chiron raised Asclepious! Would been sweet if they had small lighthearted chat about Asclepious as a Lil kid. Especially when later on they mention the story of his mother. Just small things like that :3

[tsireyast]

I feel like we dont talk about one of the main reasons nico was ostracized at camp, not just because hes a son of hades.

Camp half blood is small enough so that rumors and information spread fast, but that doesn't mean they are always right. So imagine you're a random camper, and you're told nico, one of the new campers, gets in a big fight with Percy. During which he makes skeletons appear and somehow opens a huge crack in the floor. But percy wins and nico leaves camp.

Don't you think it would've rang a bell?

Don't you think it would've reminded them too much of two summers ago, with luke?

Dont you think everyone would've been even more scared, because now they know nico is a child of hades, one of the big three, and therefore very powerful?

There must have been so many rumors that summer of nico being part of the kronos army. Betraying camp just like luke did.

Of course after the battle of manhattan many people would've changed their minds. Hes in their side now, after all. But there are probably still many campers who think nico left them to join luke, before he changed their mind and helped them win against luke and kronos. People who still hold a grudge against him for joining the "enemy".

I always see people saying that Chiron in the 5th house can be indicative of fertility problems or even miscarriages, I have this placement and my Chiron is in Capricorn. My Saturn is in Cancer, could this also be another indication? Since Cancer is ruled by the Moon and the Moon symbolizes the mother

Thank you 💞

Greetings!! 👽

🛎️Chiron in the 5th “can” indicate the potential for trauma surrounding childbirth/matters of fertility, but the 5th house encompasses so much more than that as well. Chiron in the 5th is similar to Chiron in Leo in that it is a wound of self expression/creative expression in some capacity. This can mean the creation of a child but this can also point towards childhood wounds of feeling stifled and your talents and creative expressions not being nurtured or encouraged. You could’ve been told that your talents or interests in sports/hobbies were a waste of time and that you needed to focus on more “practical” pursuits by your parents or made to feel that you weren’t good enough at them. I have my Leo in Chiron and this was very much the case for me in many ways. The 5th house is ruled by Leo and it is the house of sports, romance, pleasure, self expression and creative ventures.

With your Chiron being in a sign like Capricorn this further emphasizes the suppression of the 5th house themes mentioned above and a wound of a more stoic nature and possibly traumas related to bosses, male figures and paternal figures since Capricorn is ruled by Saturn and rules that as well. Perhaps a father figure was disapproving of your self expression and need to shine in a hobby of some sort growing up and held impossible standards for you to live up to. This can also be wounding in romance and dating as well. I generally interpret Chiron as a deep wounding starting from childhood. Its wounding of the past that stays with you and becomes a point to heal, nurture, and be aware of so you can heal that wound in others as well, since Chiron is named after Chiron the wounded healer in Greek mythology. Look to see if Chiron has any aspects in your chart to know more about the potential for healing and nature of that wounding!

Predictive astrology isn’t full-proof and only highlights potentials; not certainties. We have free will and I look at the chart as a blueprint to help guide us on our own individual journeys. The choices we make along with the mixture of divine guidance/timing help determine the rest. 🙏🏼

***The Saturn in cancer would need to be looked at further and any aspects it makes to other planets and or Chiron and the house it is in to reveal more about the nature/potential of that placement.

I hope this helps and I wish you all the best! ✨

Knight of Olympus

Chiron: The campers have been behaving remarkably well what's your secret Jaune?

Jaune: If Everybody in a cabin doesn't break any rules and the cabin is organized I will answer 1 question that the whole cabin can agree on but not a question that needs a whole hour long explanation more like a fun story

Chiron: ...Ms Chase?

Jaune: Yeah

Mr.D: Last week he was talking about one of those monsters from his world he fought and I actually saw Artemis disguising herself taking notes

Jaune: Oh thank Oum I thought I genuinely forgot one the campers existence

Chiron: What stories have you told them?

Jaune: *Smirks* I told the Apollo cabin about the time my friend Ruby nailed a nevermore with one shot, and I told the Athena cabin about my time in Atlas and how amazing their technology was, and I told Thalia, Percy, Bianca, and Nico about a lot of my adventures with my friends

Chiron: Sounds like you have a lot of stories

Jaune: Oh you have no idea! *chuckles* Though I'm always surprised how interested they are in them

Chiron: Well you are from another world, one much more crazy then our own in some ways,

Jaune: *Chuckles* Yeah, I guess

Chiron: Ale?

Jaune: Sure

*Chiron pours Jaune some Ale and sets the pitcher on the table*

Jaune: Thank you, Chiron

*Mr. D leans forward holding an empty cup in front of Jaune with a small smile and raised brow*

Jaune: *Smirks* Fine, but just this once *Pours Mr. D some Ale*

*the three toast their cups together and then drink once before setting their cups down and then begin to play pinochle*

Dionysus: *Smirks* Now then... let's begin!

[aroaceleovaldez]

That's fair. But, yeah, the movie addition of Grover's crutches were one of the best things that came out of them, and I love that it's a popular idea!

Also, I always thought of Chiron as someone with a disability (hc of mine I had since I started reading PJO), but I don't remember the show giving him one canonically in the show, if you don't mind me asking, what was their reasoning (for lack of a better word)?

I'd suspect the writers-side reasoning was in part due to an old criticism of the series, where the only character with a wheelchair wasn't disabled, it was just part of his disguise (which is part of why we got the random new camper in Tower of Nero mentioned in passing who uses a wheelchair - and why we get next to zero actual information on him besides his name and that he uses a wheelchair, because essentially all he exists as is a response to that criticism).

So in the show rather than just having the wheelchair, which a very iconic part of Chiron's character, just be a prop/part of his disguise or rather than trying to remove it entirely, they went the route of incorporating some of his mythology into an explanation as to why he uses it. Mythologically-speaking, Chiron is often written as either being killed or permanently injured by getting shot in the leg, or otherwise struck with an arrow (possibly poisoned) in the foot/leg/hoof/etc. In the show it's very subtle and they never acknowledge it explicitly, but when he's not in his wheelchair one of his horse legs has a splint on it and he's subtly limping, implying that he does genuinely require a mobility device and is disabled. It's been confirmed in behind-the-scenes stuff and on social media that this was intentional and a reference to those myths as one of the new additions in the show. I personally do like it as an addition and I think it was a good way to address that criticism, but I do wish we got some in-show acknowledgement of it, similarly to how the show is severely lacking in acknowledgement of disability in general (adhd/dyslexia, etc).
