why are PJO characters most consistently measured in scales of Michaels?
Like. this is some of the most specific height information we have out of most characters, besides maybe Percy being an inch shorter than Jason. The Michaels Scale...
#pjo#riordanverse#nico di angelo#michael kahale#michael yew#clarisse la rue#this is some of the most specific numbers we get#also for the record i did the math and inferring based on multiple factors#(average height of a 13 year old boy / average height in 1930s italy)#so implications are: a.) Nico is absolutely never gonna break 5'6''. he is probably 5'2'' at best in HoO#and b.) presuming that. the math does add up that in comparison Michael Kahale is about 5'8'' which would put him at ~50lb heavier than Nic#with the *generous* estimate that Nico is like 120lb. which is average for 5'2''#but knowing that Nico weighs like. Nothing. he is Skin and Bones. lets guesstimate that Nico is 120 soaking wet. hes probably closer to 110#i do too much math for these books. anyways enjoy that. wiki i want the heights updated with sources on my desk by tomorrow /j

anyway, going insane about octavian and michael kahale again. michael was shown to be relieved and kind of sorry about octavian's (really fucked up) death. but if he kinda pitied the guy, why did he stay with him? how much did he really agree with octavian, and how much was just him staying loyal to the shell of a friend he once had? did he think he could save him? convince him to act a bit better? save the others from him?

After the battle with Gaea
michael kahale: I’ve had… a day… Reyna, rubbing her eyes: What’d you see? Michael: Well, I saw Octavian accidentally commit suicide… and I saw Nico get flirted with, on the battlefield. Frank: He didn’t (cackling) Michael: A Greek son of Apollo. Reyna: Welp, time to round up the 7 for the most terrifying shovel talk.

I wasn't super convinced by the Michael Kahale was the traitor theory but now I'm reading the scene again... I'm starting to really see it.
Not only did Octavian not make the order but no one in the legion was following his orders at that point!!
Michael Kahale was the traitor 🤯🤯🤯

So i was scrolling through the drew tanaka tag as one does and found this post by @curseofdelos that i was like !!!!! about, and i read through it and I was like. Yes, but also…
So this is my also. I suggest reading the post first as it does very well in explaining the issues with Piper and Drew’s writing and why that’s harmful.
But I’d like to take it a step further and extrapolate to the bigger picture of cabin 10.
What about the boys?
TL;DR: There are a lot of in-text and meta negotiations of masculinity versus femininity that occur in /influence PJO/HOO, and that leaves boys in the Aphrodite Cabin in an awkward limbo.
Before we get into the nitty gritty, I first want to establish that masculinity is not femininity. Which like, duh, but that means that anything that is not masculine can and will be considered feminine. Point blank, no nuance (There is a literature backing, but I think its a bit too much, so I’ll just put it at the end if you wanna find the article I’m referring to).
And that’s what Rick is operating on, while you can’t deny it is a spectrum, at the time of writing TLH and such, there was a general societal understanding of masculinity as being macho and strong and rejecting softness for hardcore or whatever. And this positioning is where femininity comes in, and where we can begin to talk about Cabin 10.
Rick writes Cabin 10 as inherently feminine, thus attaching “beauty” to this narrow idea; best shown through describing the cabin as a Barbie house and Piper's claiming ordeal. It is a place where there is nothing “masculine,” leading to the stereotype of Aphrodite kids not being able to fight, since war is masculine and thus out of their purview.
This does deconstruct with Silena and then Piper, but the existence of Drew proves that it is still upheld and important enough to the story.
I do believe that Rick tried to have his “oh you can still be feminine without being hyper feminine!” moment with Piper & Drew’s conflict, however, he failed to give Drew enough agency to make it seem like there was a genuine conflict rather than just “mean girl v girl-next-door.” (again, @curseofdelos explained it very well, go read!).
Now with the girls out of the way, the boys are kinda… lost in the sauce? The only Aphrodite boy we get is Mitchell and it is very telling that a lot of people hc him as gay… which again is the posturing of masculinity vs femininity and whatever is not masculine is therefore feminine. And being gay is being attracted to masculinity and this feminine etc etc (according to societal norms). The fact that he is the only male Aphrodite kid rep is again, telling and really affirms the inherent femininity of Cabin 10.
“Hey! He’s not the only ‘Aphrodite’ Kid! What about Michael!” And Michael just further proves my point! He’s the son of Venus, and Roman counterparts are considered as more “warlike” than their Greek ones. War being considered masculine and a rejection of femininity, as established earlier w/ Cabin 10 kids not being warriors. Now, Micheal exists as a (hyper) masculine counterpoint to Drew’s (hyper) feminine, making the Roman Venus a direct opposite as the Greek Aphrodite.
This is actually, kinda commendable in terms of plot, since it helps reinforce the differences between Greek and Roman and how extreme they were. Great storytelling device, bad everything else.
One more thing I want to touch on is the vilification of femininity, and why it must be rejected in the pjo/hoo. You can only fight if you adopt masculine traits, and therefore not fighting and still surviving means that you are doing something dishonorable like, abusing charmspeak (Drew) or using magic (Circe, Medea, etc) or even spying (Silena). Which is a very masculine idea, of how things should be solved by violence ( i mean, look at violence perpetrated by men compared to women in our society…) I think I’ve said this before, but in Piper’s arc, there needs to be an antagonist to prove how she doesn’t “fit in” at CHB, and create that tension of her either choosing to save her father and betray or continue the quest as is; and that antagonist ended up being Drew, and that makes sense bc Cabin 10 is against what Piper is characterized as, and she just is a rejection of that femininity.
Anyways, let me not get away from myself. Basically, within the story, there is no real opportunity for the characters to reject gender stereotypes without falling into others. And Rick wrote himself into that hole.

Mike: I ran into Octavian in the kitchen at 1 AM last night and when I asked him what he was doing, he just shrugged, said “these are my roaming hours,” and wandered off, strumming vaguely on his guitar

Tavi is doing his best to paint mike's nails, but his shaking hands make it messy. Luckly Michael doesn't care, he just enjoy the moment.
I just wonder why Tavi's shirt is so big 🤔

octavian wet cat headcanons
@odysseus-crewmate-number38 and i have decided that there has been enough of rick's writing which transparently only made octavian an object onto which to project hate, rather than a character. because i am the sexiest and smartest person on the planet, i understand octavian better than rr, and know that what he is actually meant to be is a traditionally queer-coded, camp, homosexual villain, who enjoys being a villain immensely. the following are a compilation of ody and mine's absolutely true and fully verified octavian facts (he told me):
his little augur rituals are like drag performances
in which i don't means he dresses up in drag but rather that he's exaggerated and dramatic
he does the thing where he rubs his grubby little hands together
he's the type to say "well well well look what the cat dragged in"
light in the office opens dramatically as octavians spinny chair turns to the door
’i’ve been expecting you’
he’s done this 12 times already
he says the same name of. the person who hes been expecting. he eventually is right
WHY does octavian's wiki page say his ancestors are VENUS, JUPITER (also apollo obviously) and. a bunch of mortal guys like hercules? what the fuck. guy must be so inbred
his ancestory is just the olympus family tree
but i mean he's a legacy of venus so that explains everything. he's just suffering from a terminal amount of prettyboy syndrome
octavian would wear so much gold. 90 pounds soaking wet 138 pounds with all his robes and jewelery on
he'd get things covered in gold leaf just because he can
his closet takes up the space of like three entire barracks of the cohort
‘where did the funding for the new buildings in camp jupiter go’ . new suspiciously closet shaped building implemented:
BRO COMMITS EMBEZZLEMENT JUST SO HE CAN BUY NEW OUTFIT
not that he doesn't already have enough money. he just likes doing it like this
nobody else is allowed to touch his clothing though. high treason actually
one of his henchmen (bryce) can bc he knows exactly how to handle it and which setting on the washing machine to use with which detergent
oh he’d watch the devil wears prada and base his personality on the boss from that movie
his room has a shrine dedicated to meryl streep actually .reyna accidentally walks in on him once and sees him praying to her. they never talk about it
octavian could deify miranda if he tries hard enough
oh my goddd. do you think his biggest internal conflict during hoo would be "can a girl like me really have more than ONE evil henchman?"
how is he going to strut down the halls in an iconic triad formation if he only has ONE henchman . he has to follow in his ancestors footsteps (heather chandler, chanel oberlein, regian george-)
his henchman no1 is michael kahale, son of venus, who's canonically fit as fuck and pretty close to octavian, headcanonically a gayboy who rolls his eyes and sips his starbucks drink waaaay too loudly when people he doesn't like are talking (he does this in the senate meetings)
his henchman no2 is bryce lawrence, legacy of orcus, god of punishment, who was canonically banished from camp jupiter bc he killed someone, but in boo, octavian takes him back. he's supposed to be really big and burly, with some "traditionally unattractive" traits (which i've decided to allow, as long as michael and octavian call them pretty in a totally infatuated way)
edit: someone said that since he doesn't have a last name, it should be octavian gallo (since it means rooster), and i'm making that canon now
