WHY DOES NO ONE TALK ABOUT THE FACT THAT LEO AND REYNA ARE SIBLINGS?!??! ON TOWER OF NERO REYNA CALLS LEO HERMANO!?!?!?? AND CALLS HERSELF (AND I QUOTE) "a big sister who isn't afraid to smack him when he gets out of line" ???? CHAPTER 38??!??!? I CANT TELL YOU TE PAGE BC I READ ON KINDLE???? BUT THEY'RE SIBLINGS YOUR HONOR

AND JO AND EMMIE ARE HIS ADOPTIVE FOUND FAMILY MOMS??!? HE LITERALLY CALLS JO MOM??!!?!

WHY AM I THE ONLY ONE TALKING ABOUT THIS THEY'RE SO CUTE

[litwafflehouse]

Can we take a moment and appreciate how Jo and Emmie in TOA foster Leo after losing his family so many times due to being a demigod is just *chiefs kiss* best found family trope.

Cuz not only is Jo a professional mechanic witch leo can relate too and bond with, Emmie is kind and treats him with such love that Leo deserves, Lityerses too. And I will always always ALWAYS claim til this day him and lit are brothers and lit feels so bad for what he had done in the past and helps leo mourn over Jason (telling him how he stabbed commodus and trying his best to be there for leo)

Anyway lit, leo, and Georgina best siblings they are my babies

[lesbianbanana]

Emmie and Jo: welcome to the waystation!! *Gestures to Georgina* this is our adopted child Georgie *gestures to Lityerses* and this is our other adopted child Lit

GUYS GUYS GUYSSS-

Currently reading Tower of Nero for the first time, and I'm on like the last page of chapter 24 so don't spoil anything m'kay

But guyssssss, APOLLO WAS WILLING TO GIVE UP IMMORTALITY.

In Dark Prophecy when he was talking to Jo/Emmie? One of them. He asked why she would give up immortality, and she's like giving this whole like reason he doesn't get or seem to understand, BUT now I think he might just understand why a person would give up immortality... AND ITS SO... AHHHHHHHHHHH

Holy Hera-

Kay bye! off to finish the book. And if Nero does anything to MEG-

[via-rant]

Haven't finished ToA but I really really wanna see more of Leo being loved by Jo and Emmi and Georgie.

[sugar-r-rush]

Leo and his family <3

These took like 3 hours but they are small doodles because I never see any talk on them so

When I was saving these to post I forgot to add leos big scar mb mb

[goldrushenthusiast]

The marauders fan urge in me to focus on the most basic background characters ever and have them be my favs

[just-a-little-bit-of-sugar]

Jo and Emmie and If We Were Vampires and maybe time running out is a gift and getting to grow old together and the necessity of an end and and and

[holly-natnicole]

Yup!!

I feel like Hemithea would have taken Josephine's surname because she didn't have one… no one in Ancient Greece did.

[poppitron360]

I’m reading TOA for the first time and HOLY SHIT WE DON’T TALK ABOUT JO ENOUGH!!

Like where is the Emmie/Jo fanfiction? Where are the headcanons? Where is the fanart?

I mean two badass old lady lesbians? Why are they not fandom-favourites? I freaking love them!!

Properly developing and writing LGBTQ ships.

Ok, but when have we actually SEEN a good LGBTQ ship being DEVELOPED AND WRITTEN PROPERLY?

Like with Percabeth, you can see their development over the course of the series. WHEN HAVE WE SEEN THAT WITH GAY MALES OR LESBIAN FEMALES? I've never seen it (if you have, though, tell me please.)

We almost never get gay characters as major characters. Sure, Piper Mclean is bisexual, but we never knew it until the literal END of Trials of Apollo even though she was a major character in HOO and even starred as a side character for Trials of Apollo. Was her POV in HOO about discovering her bisexuality and coming out? No. Piper's representation is so shoved in that it barely counts, TBH. Though that is just my opinion on this matter-no need to agree with it.

And Nico di Angelo is gay, but his rep was handled terribly. A forced coming out, and being paired off with a random side character to 'prove' his gayness. Also, Will being a terrible partner for Nico (sharing his medical information without authority, and being someone's doctor and boyfriend is problematic for boundaries. Nico could have had another doctor. Seriously, are there no Athena kids in the infirmary, or no trainee Apollo kids?).

I'm just saying that I'm not sure if Solangelo is good representation because we don't really get any development and whatever development there is on Nico's side is somewhat deteriorated. We don't even get much of Will as a character. No development at all.

And with the lesbian couple, Jo and Emmie, in ToA? No development-plus they got kicked out of a supposedly safe space for being lesbians. Very problematic.

And Piper and Shel? NOTHING. No page time. None whatsoever. No development or good writing.

Lavinia and Poison Oak? We're told, not shown. We don't even see Poison Oak.

Fierrochase is the only developed ship, and even then, it's a little rushed. (Just my opinion).

no one:

absolutely nobody:

me when Leo calls Jo mum:

[the-star-rigel]

Let’s talk again about how Hermes tells Percy in TLO that immortals can’t change and then Rick hits us with Bob and Damasen. And then after we’ve cried over “say hello to the sun and stars for me” he hits us with an entire series about people breaking out of the narrative where the protagonist is the god of prophecy.

[apollosgiftofprophecy]

I think it's time to put this out there :3

EDIT:

To clear up confusion, I left off Apollo & Nico because

1) Apollo would SLAUGHTER everybody on this poll because He Is The Queer Rep and

2) Nico is very very popular and the poll would be rigged if I put him in, giving him a very unfair advantage over Every Other Very Very Good Queer Rep we have here.

Also apparently Reyna is AlloAce instead of Aro...huh. To me she gave off some strong Aro vibes ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Also, I understand Will Solace is Bisexual in TSATS- however, in as few words as possible, there are so many retcons in TSATS that contradicted canon, so I do not see TSATS as canon. Reasons why are a whole essay that I do not want to write.

Because of this, I still see Will as Gay, as do many others in this fandom. There is absolutely no disrespect intended from this-remember, this is a fictional book series about fictional characters. We are allowed to interpret characters in different ways, and I just so happen to interpret Will as Gay.

Please do not get upset over this, all character interpretations are just as valid as yours. Thank you.
