#son of neptune trio

[beans-core]

Percy, finally getting to meet his younger sister after questing alongside Hazel and Frank, thinking: “it feels like I’ve already been trained a bit to be an older brother”

okay but?? is anyone going to talk about Hazel and Percy’s relationship?? they were really close?? like?? Hazel kissed Percy on the cheek?? Percy saw her as a younger sister and was extremely protective of her?? what happened?? where did that go?? I want more of this??

Frank on Argo II: "I used to have a crush on someone who was a lot like Jason. Hey, maybe that’s why I like him so much!"

Percy: "Frank..."

Hazel: *raises a hand to prompt the 17-year-old to not continue speaking* "No, don’t…I wanna see how long he can keep it up."

Jason Grace, so much potential...

Actually this goes for the entire lost trio. The AMOUNT of TRAUMA these three had and the potential for character development they had too is UNREAL, yet nothing was done. Let us begin my personal beliefs

Leo:

-Delve into his trauma of his remaining family deciding he was the devil at age EIGHT and refusing to take him in-abandonment issues

-Have his constant feelings of invalid-ness and being the unneeded member of the seven be corrected by giving him CLOSE FRIENDS HE PIPER AND JASON NEED TO BE CLOSER AT THE VERY LEAST and conversations when he realizes he is wanted and needed

-Don't have Calypso storyline in there-he didn't need a girlfriend to solve his problems, if you have it, have it as good friends-another member of his support group

-Make him gay and have valgrace or slowburn/implied valgrace(the two of them pining then like kinda tragic as Leo dies)

Piper:

-Have her lesbian storyline occur in HoO where she's a main character-it's an important storyline for her character that deserves a spotlight and time that ToA couldn't give it

-No Jiper! This relationship was toxic and founded on fake memories-if you're going to do it, do it as a part of her LGBTQIA+ journey and Jason's as well

-Don't have her demonize femininity! She can wear dresses! She can wear makeup! She can present more feminine and still be the same character and her hatred of any and all things feminine is not good representation! Make her a feminist, please! Or at least make her less against femininity as a whole.

-No kaleidoscope eyes! Give her brown eyes and also have her rediscovering her culture storyline as a part of HoO too!

Jason:

-Make him a better fighter than Percy. He has been at Camp Jupiter since the age of three and spent a year with wolves before then. He has spent his entire life in a military setting training, he should be a better swordfighter than Percy 'I show up to summer camp at age 12 to 16 and only really use my sword then' Jackson.

-Give him more powers. Or Percy less. Children of the big three should be equal in potential power, not Percy being OP and the others having lightning or shadows powers some of the time. Percy needs less power and Jason, Thalia, Hazel, and Nico need more. Jason should have more power than Percy as he has had longer to train it.

-Give him a personality. His storyline in HoO should be a journey of self-discovery. He has always been another member of an army, with constant pressure on him to be the best at everything and a strong confident leader who doesn't make mistakes as a son of Jupiter. His entire life has been dictated by those around him. For the first time, he is free of that and he needs to be discovering things like how he likes to dress, his style, his sexuality, his likes and dislikes, and his personality. In my opinion he should be kinda shy with a feral edge, side effect of the wolves, who is always trying to people please. When he stops doing this, he becomes significantly happier and a greater use to the team. Plus valgrace;D.

-Also, make him despise Percy at the beginning. He worked his entire life to be an afterthought that nobody looked for when he went missing for months, while Percy was looked for by everyone after only a few days. Percy achieved everything he wanted in a matter of weeks in New Rome and he was happy and had friends and a life. Percy has everything Jason doesn't. They need to have a moment where they are locked together and Percy goes "why do you hate me" and Jason breaks down because "You have everything I want and you don't even have to try!". This would create a better relationship for them and be the turning point for Jason as Percy hears what he has to say and validates him. Also Jason personality.

-Don't kill him off and continue his self-discovery journey in ToA.

-Make him and Thalia have a closer relationship that in the months between TLH and TSoN, it is implied that they spend time together. He should feel safe with her and they needed more interactions as they are SIBLINGs, god damit.

-Make him and Reyna just friends-she wanted to look for him but couldn't 'cause Octavian(the bitch) and someone needed to be Praetor in his absence.

-Also give him history with Octavian-ex-friends or something give me drama.

why was she getting jealous over ella giving frank her feather 😭😭😭 girl he gave u his LIFE. IT'S IN YOUR POCKET

[tending-the-hearth]

the chb counselors would pull frank and hazel into their little group SO quickly once they meet them after the war

this is a group of people who remember little twelve year old percy walking around chb with the widest eyes and naïveté. they've heard his snarky comments, have seen him stand up to bullies, they watched him panic searching for his closest friends, they've witnessed his breakdowns and tears during the summers where he just couldn't do it anymore.

everyone else at the camp has a view of percy as another god, or as an untouchable being. they only see him for the hero he is, but they don't see the real him.

frank and hazel, however, got to see the real percy on their quest. they saw all his little quirks, heard every quip and sarcastic comment, watched him freak out over other demigods and legacies getting hurt, and they saw how percy is so much more than just a hero.

not saying that the rest of the seven wouldn't all be welcomed by the chb head counselors, but frank and hazel would immediately just click with all of them because of their connection to percy. there's a small group of people who know the true him, and they're part of that, and it just brings them into this little special group. they'd be invited to the sleepovers and told every single embarrassing story about percy while he just groans and attempts to commit murder by smothering clarisse with a pillow. frank and hazel would get introduced to sally and paul and just be immediately folded into their little family.

frank and clarisse would become an inseparable duo. hazel and chris would become so close, not just because their partners are siblings, but also i think they'd connect on their shared "being trapped somewhere for an unknown amount of time after being manipulated by someone i cared about" experiences. travis and connor would ADORE frank, i think for some reason pollux and hazel would get along really well. there would just be an automatic camaraderie between all of them so quickly.

yes, nico is the go-between for the camps, but i think frank and hazel would just automatically be so completely and utterly trusted by the entirety of camp half-blood purely because percy completely and utterly trusts them.

[vinyhaaa]

I absolutely hate when people act like percy and annabeth can't have any other bsfs other than grover , like the number of times i saw people say, "jason wasn't percy bsf !!!" Or "piper wasn't annabeth bsf" LIKE PLS SHUT UP they were absolutely bsfs literally everyone on the Argo were super close and people need to understand that 😭 i alsooo very much hate when people act like nico & leo were bsfs , don't get me wrong i love the idea of them being friends but , I'm pretty sure they never really interacted , like even frank & nico were closer but anywayyy srry for the little yap session 😓

[lavenderfairiez]

Unfortunately I am once again thinking about heroes of olympus and the seven and more specifically the lost trio and also the son of neptune trio and then like how they come together and the dynamics and I just love heroes of olympus so much

[hazellvsq]

percy swearing on his life to the romans that the greeks meant no harm. and hazel standing for percy in front of the legion meaning that she would face whatever punishment he did. and she only stood for him because frank wasn't allowed to. and she was carrying frank's life in her coat pocket.

Thoughts on rereading The Lost Hero vs The Son of Neptune

TLH

The name :/. Very uninspired

Is Percy here yet?

Huh, Piper doesn't seem to be too happy with Leo??

A N N A B E T H

THEY JUST DO. NOT. CARE. THAT COACH HEDGE DIED

Piper isn't as cool as I remembered :(

Piper and Jason just ... don't like Leo. Why does he even bother with them??

Wowwww I'm so invested in Jiper sooooo invested

Is it over yet?

TSoN

P E R C Y

Omg Frank and Hazel? Are so much cuter than I remembered??

Eww Octavian ewwww

Reyna is trying to replace her old situationship with a new one? 😲😲🫢

The budding Frazel 🥹

I LOVE Frank's grandmother

"And you make a very handsome elephant" stop omg

Not them killing two giants when the lost trio couldn't even kill one

Percy is praetor now? You don't say. That makes so much sense, he's been here for a whole ... *checks notes* week. Ah yes.

Leo, Jason and Piper might be the best trio in any of rick riordan's greek mythology books. All three of them speak to me on a fundamental level, and I love all of them. Their friendship is beautiful, and it's almost the aspirational goal for a friendship, in my opinion.

Once I read the Son of Neptune, I might end up equally as fond of Frank, Hazel and Percy too. I remember really liking Frank and Ella the Harpy. But until i can get around to reading those books and determining that, i'll just say i love the lost trio a lot.

[percytheseaprince]

Many people say that the Seven would say that "Percy is not good enough for Anabette" But I think otherwise. I think Frank and Hazel would think Anabette wasn't good enough for Percy. Like they almost betrayed their homeland for him whom they had known for a week. They are absolutely on Percy's side. 100% . The three of them are my Roman Empire

Piper

So this is real random, but in my earlier post about the Lost Trio (this should work as a link: https://www.tumblr.com/memysoulandi/754162180906270720/jason-grace-so-much-potential)

and anyway I feel a need to elaborate on Piper's character as someone said something about her demonizing of femininity understandable to her character and past.

What I meant by this was sort of have her like the dresses, but not the implications of wearing them.

For example, when Aphrodite put her in a gorgeous dress to claim her along with some makeup, instead of her going 'ewwwww I hate wearing dresses and makeup feels so horrible this is so embarrassing gods I despise dresses' instead be like 'Piper didn't like looking this perfect as it reminded her of all the models and actresses and singers who threw themselves at her father and made fools of themselves for a bit of cash'.

Given what kind of movies we can assume Tristan Mclean does, movies with men sweaty and shirtless and woman being helpless stupid love interests who dress in impractical clothes for the film, scream in fear, and wear heels 24/7, Piper probably didn't have the best view of the actresses that she would meet, as she associates them with the 2000's helpless love interests films they act in. She associates being feminine with being weak.

I feel like her journey to accepting herself and her femininity would probably begin with Reyna or Annabeth-Strong powerful woman who are feminine enough-both can rock dresses and war armor just as easily and are, on the outside, sure of themselves and are well-respected. Her lesbian journey should begin with her kinda despising Reyna because she has a crush on her, and everyone mistaking it for jealousy.

On a different note, I feel that Jiper couldn't work out BECAUSE they are opposites, and both are gay.

Piper rejects all stereotypes she faces-being pretty and caring about appearance because she's a woman, the whole 'mess' with being Cherokee and the 'oh your so involved in ur culture ur weird' shit that goes on, being self-absorbed as a daughter of Aphrodite. She makes herself the opposite of these so much, and she turns it into her personality in a way, probably because of negative experiences with Hollywood.

Meanwhile Jason conforms to all his expectation, at least at Camp Jupiter. Be a good leader, be praetor, date Reyna, be strong, be caring, be the best, be handsome, be kind, be straight, be perfect. He's a people pleaser and a perfectionist, and he changes who he is to fit other expectations.

Also their relationship was set up by Hera and Aphrodite and what not healthy for either of them.
