Leo was the MC of Heroes of Olympus and you can fight me on that

But Jaso— no shut up thanks. Sorry, just because we opened to his POV doesn’t mean he’s the one in charge or of the most importance.

Percy— nah nah nah that boy had his five books to himself and is basically Riordanverse jesus, sit back down.

Leo’s story intersects and is often a direct parallel with every other characters’ throughout the series, he has the most narrative points and chapters, has a POV in every single book except SON, and owns/is a catalyst for the majority of the lines in the prophecy. He built that damn warship essentially solo and was constantly isolated from the rest of the seven despite them all supposedly being on equal footing.

Gaea didn’t try to kill the other seven’s parents, Hera didn’t watch them as children despite her literally claiming Jason as a champion. Just Leo.

#was this because I saw a fanart of all the Riordanverse mcs and Leo wasn’t there #…maybe #and I could probably go on for hours about Leo and Percy bring narrative foils to each other #but I won’t #leo valdez #heroes of olympus #percy jackson #hoo #pjo #it just makes me mad because Leo cares so much about the people he’s around #and he’s just given the short end of the stick constantly #probably why I write about him so much tbh it’s like rick forgot Leo was the mc
