#they’re literally some of the only poly rep out there which is. sad

[applebees4prez]

i can’t wait for the coming out arc of literally every fantasy high character there are so many that seem imminent

[secretagentspydetectiveninja]

I like how we've got 5 heavily-implied LGBT classmates (Nath, who's basically canon, Juleka, Max, Chloé, and Alix {pretty much all different reps too!) and two more with a reasonable possibility(Rose and Sabrina). That's half the entire class! (And you won't even pry demi Alya out of my cold dead hands). And please don't let these be queerbating.

Omg yes I’ve been watching this show with prying eyes and let me tell you:

Marinette: blushes very prominently when a hot celebrity idol, Clara Nightingale, is talking to her -- blushing is pretty much always portrayed as romantic in this show so it seems Marinette is indeed into girls, and that’s not even mentioning all her ship tease with Alya, Chloe...

Alya: as Rena she straight-up (bi-up?? gay-up???) asked for Ladybug’s number when Chat tried to flirt with her. Also all that ship tease with Marinette? wlw.

Nath: like literally dating a boy. it’s literally actual canon, he’s into dudes. also he liked Marinette and Ladybug before so BI/PAN REP

Marc: his full name is just a pun on “rainbow”, he wears a rainbow shirt, he’s based on a bisexual genderfluid person, he has eyelashes and lipstick (which the boys don’t usually have), he has a canon crush on Nath and is apparently a couple with him in Frozer, he’s canonically neither straight nor cis and I love it so so so so so much

Juleka: has never shown interest in a boy, makes heart eyes at Rose all the time, is dating her by Frozer (or at least Adrien considers it that way), she’s gay. there’s just no way to deny that she likes girls at this point. have you seen her and Rose at like any point in season 2 at all?? Rose was sitting in her lap in Frightningale!! they’re a couple!!

Rose: she kissed Juleka on the lips on Zombizou!!! I know we didn’t technically see it but their faces were close together, their arms were wrapped around each other, Juleka was covering her mouth afterwards and didn’t have a zombie kiss mark anywhere else, the fact that they didn’t show it onscreen... Julerose IS canon and it’s been proved again and again, whether Rose is bi/pan or whether she’s a lesbian and her interest in Prince Ali was platonic, I love it either way

Luka: the bi flag behind him in the concert scene, we spotted that one zag, very sneaky, I like it

Adrien: as Chat Noir in Weredad/Papa Garou he was all like “I’d totally marry myself if I could” which, if we ignore the fact that that’s literally selfcest, he... maybe likes guys then? eh whatever screw it he’s bi/pan I mean he had that meet-cute with Luka

Nino: this boy geeks out FULL ON when Chat Noir’s around, in Horrificator he was even more excited to see him than to see Ladybug, methinks he has a crush and I 100% support it

Chloe: it’s no coincidence that so much of the fandom considers her a closet lesbian or bi -- her “crush” on Adrien is so overly performative and clingy whereas the times where she values his friendship are shown to actually be heartfelt and true, she flirts with Ladybug constantly, she is Into Girls okay, and plus you can make the BEST pun: lesbeean

Sabrina: may I remind everyone that in Antibug when they were cosplaying, Sabrina was literally the Chat Noir to Chloe being Ladybug ahem ahem... also in Evillustrator the way she treats Marinette does indeed seem like she has a crush on her, especially the “breakup” part too, which is honestly quite sad, please zag give this girl some friends I’m begging you

Max: those heart eyes at Kim in Dark Cupid!! the fact that he’s the ONLY boy in the class who hasn’t shown interest in a girl!! the only one to be upset when Kim got dragged underwater in Syren!! telling Kim about Markov before anyone else!! all that ship tease, on Julerose-levels!! Kimax may not be Officially canon but gay Max is canon in my heart and soul

Kim: listen... he took Max to the zoo and showed off at him for like literally no actual sensible reason, and I know Kim’s just Like That, but still... also in Gamer he was the first one to be upset at Max losing (after showing off for like 5 minutes about how amazing and awesome Max is) and in the original animatic he actually cried real tears when Max lost, and that’s on top of all the other Kimax ship tease so hmm... bi Kim?? since he’s liked Chloe and Ondine?? and if he does date Max too then POLY KIM COME ON ZAG YOU CAN DO IT, KIM HAS TWO HANDS

Kagami: pushing Marinette’s boy love interests out of the way to help her up and then whispering in her ear is a very gay power move. and she stared at Ladybug so in awe after being rescued by her, not to mention she uses a sword... a SWORD... it’s almost like lesbians using swords is a meme or something

Alix: while her being all “ew romance” in Gigantitan on its own might not count though it totally does, this is a VERY shippy show which freely gives minor characters love interests and ship tease all over the place and yet specifically not Alix?? also she wears green and black?? and is the only classmate to have definitely not kissed anyone in Zombizou?? doesn’t even have ship tease with her classmate pair?? even her webisode didn’t mention anyone aside from her family, unlike the others?? someone stop me writing an essay about how aroace she is because otherwise I’ll do it I swear, I got plenty more

Lila: again, her crush on Adrien can be read as comp het due to how over-the-top it is in combination with her personality as a trickster so it might not be all that genuine anyway aside from wanting to be popular and wanting people to like her, and also... that scene in the bathroom with Marinette was uhh kinda gay, not gonna lie

Wayhem: okay maybe not the best example because his crush on Adrien resulted in a lot of trouble and he was kinda a weirdo stalker for a while and yeah. BUT he was getting ice cream with a boy in Glaciator, remember?? GAYhem

Nora: we haven’t seen much of her, yeah, but her whole aesthetic... it just gives me that lesbian vibe y’know

In conclusion: Miraculous Ladybug said gay rights!!!

[winteriron-trash]

Ok, so that fanfic questions ask meme? You wanna do ALL OF THEM?!

YES, LET’S DO IT, HERE WE GO, PREPARE YOURSELF I’m copy and pasting answers I’ve already done just so I don’t have to retype them and there’s a break because god this got long. I might link this on my About Me post, cause holy shit I spent time on this

1. What was the first fandom you got involved in?

Actual fandom? Probably DC. That’s when I started reading fanfiction and really poked my head around online communities dedicated to media and all.

2. What is your latest fandom?

I don’t know, probably Marvel? Maybe Riverdale, but I was a fan of the comics before so

3. What is the best fandom you’ve ever been involved in?

If I’m assuming this question is about the actual fandom and not the source material and the people in the fandom and its community as a whole? Probably the Percy Jackson fandom. Not really into it anymore so I don’t know the state of it now, but it was a pretty wholesome and positive community. Any community that calls it’s creator “Uncle Rick” has gotta be pretty dope.

4. Do you regret getting involved in any fandoms?

Oh lord save my soul for admitting I like this, but definitely Five Nights at Freddy’s. The indie gaming, creepypasta, underground subculture as a whole is something I regret getting into. Don’t get me wrong, I usually love the source material, but the fandom is just so bad. You probably know what I’m talking about, the fangirls who insist they’re insane and are in love with Slenderman or something.

But specifically on FNaF, lord, I don’t even know what the fandom is anymore. It’s a meme, a fetish, and a hellspace all at once. And I’m not gonna fucking lie, I’ve been in this hellhole long before any of that. Like, I can’t even try to escape it, I’m in it for the long haul. I was just someone who joined for the lore and now we’re here with fucking casual bongos and trash gang and fuck I didn’t ask for this. I can’t escape. I know so fucking much about the franchise it hurts my fucking soul. I remember when the FNaF 2 trailer came out and we were all micro-analyzing London Bridge Is Falling Down. I remember when Springtrap didn’t have a name and we called that fucking Spring Bonnie or Golden Bonnie. I survived that era and I have PTSD from it, trust me. I remember when we were naive enough to think FNaF 3 was the last game. I know what channels were born and what channels died because of that series. I know it all.

I’m sorry, I got off topic. BUT I DON’T GET TO FUCKING RANT ABOUT IT ENOUGH, FUCKING FUCKSHIT

Oh, and a lot of bandoms I was in too. I went through an alt phase where I’d only listen to shit like BVB, BMTH, MCR, PTV, SWS, and so on. Once again, that sort of fandom was the same as the indie/creepypasta in being ‘different’ and ‘insane’ and all that and I was no different. I was a weird fucking kid when I was like 13. I regret all of it.

5. Which fandoms have your written fanfiction for?

Marvel, DC, and a couple Riverdale. 

6. List your OTP from each fandom you’ve been involved in.

Not in many fandoms but

Marvel - WinterIronDC - SuperbatStar Trek Voyager - Captain Janeway/Seven of NinePercy Jackson - Solangelo

7. List your NoTPs from each fandom you’ve been in.

Marvel - Stucky, Stuckony, Romanogers, Clintasha, any incest ones, (save me for admitting this) SpideypoolDC - Any batboys shipped together, Bruce/Talia

And I don’t really have NOTPs for my other fandoms? Marvel and DC are really the only two things I’m invested in the fandom of. I guess you could count Wincest as well for Supernatural.

8. How did you get involved in your latest fandom?

What even is my latest fandom? Um, we’ll just say Marvel because I’m really not into joining fandoms much anymore. Honestly, I was a big DC fan who felt the need to hate Marvel because no shit. Eventually, I just got sick of the absolute shit movies DC had and I decided I had nothing to lose by just watching Iron Man. When I watched it I realized “wow, superhero movies can actually be good???” and I just binged the entire MCU in one month and was ready to see the next movie in theatres and I think I’ve seen every single MCU movie in theatres since Civil War? Definitely since Homecoming. I gave up on DC movies. The new Aquaman looks like shit, I’m so fucking pissed they redid Mera’s look when she looked perfectly fucking fine before and now she’s oversexualized and it’s gross. I’m excited for the new DC Batwoman TV show because I HAVE BEEN WAITING TO SEE A LIVE ACTION BATWOMAN SINCE THE DAWN OF FUCKING TIME

9. What are the best things about your current fandom?

Probably the Tony Stark Defense Squad. As a collective whole, I think the Defense Squad is one of the sweetest, nicest corners of the fandom. We’re incredibly kind to each other, write great meta and fic, and it’s just a great community. Of course, there are assholes, but you know.

I might get flamed for saying this, but also the HYDRA Trash Party corner of the fandom is actually really nice? Like, they understand consent and abuse aftermath and all the real shit better than the rest of the fandom, not gonna lie. Like, for as dark as the fic is you’d expect the people to be fucking nasties, but I have never met a rude HTP enthusiast. Or even one who’s unaware of how consent and whump work. They’re all very aware and kind. It’s bizarre, considering the source material. They get an awful rep though.

10.  Is there a fandom you read fic from but don’t write in?

Literally any fandom I’m in besides Marvel and DC. I think I wrote like 2 Riverdale fics. Getting into reading fanfic and getting into writing fanfic are two entirely different ballparks. I don’t really read that much fanfic anyway, especially not anymore. I read Marvel and DC, but even then. I think it’s hard because sometimes you can’t switch off the whole ‘reading like a writer’ thing. That’s why I enjoy classic literature. I’m a slut for some good ass prose and symbolism.

11. Who is your current OTP?

WinterIron, of ducking course.

12. Who is your current OT3?

I’m not really a fan of OT3s, to be honest, I find I’m personally pretty weak with writing poly relationships and I don’t really enjoy reading them because one character is usually focused on a lot more than the other two. But if I had to pick, I would say T’Challa/M’Baku/Bucky only because I am solely responsible for the creation of that abomination and you have no idea how much people begged me for a series after the first one, it astounded me.

13. Any NoTPs?

As before listed, Stucky, Stuckony, Spideypool, Clintasha, Romanogers

14. Go on, who are your BroTPs?

IronWidow is my top BroTP, but I also like WinterWidow as a BroTP. Stucky is good as a BroTP too, as well as Tony & Rhodey.

15. Is there an obscure ship which you love?

Literally any ship I have. Yall I’ve been here since WinterIron was obscure. But to name a specific one I’m just gonna go with Pietro/Tony. I don’t know, I just had an idea I was writing for them and I was thinking about how much missed out potential there was between them. And with Pietro as a whole, but you know. Marvel has to kill off the only good Maximoff they had.

Oh, Natasha/Pepper too, but they aren’t as obscure, I guess.

16. Are their any popular ships in your fandom which you dislike?

Stucky, clearly.

17. Who was your first OTP and are they still your favourite?

Stony, and no. They fell apart for me, at least MCU-wise.

18. What ship have you written the most about?

By now, WinterIron, I believe. I recently passed my count of fics for Superbat.

19. Is there a ship which you wished you could get behind, but you just don’t feel them?

Pepperony, probably. I think it’s actually a cute and sweet ship and I like their in-canon moments, but I just can’t get behind reading fanfic of them? It never works out for me, I don’t really get it. It sucks because I do enjoy seeing their cute moments.

20. Any ships which you surprised yourself by liking?

I’ll do a different answer I thought of besides the first time I answered this. But Thruce was a big shocker for me. I didn’t even think about it during Ragnorak but then I saw an incorrect quote for it and I was like? Oh? This? This is a good, pure ship right here. The funny thing is, I actually wrote a fic with them as a side ship long before they hit it big so like, I was shocked when they came out of nowhere. But hey, I’m fucking here for it. I’ll probably never write it, but I’m here for it. 

21. What was the first fanfic you ever wrote?

Goodnight, My Angel. It was a Superbat fic and really sad, but I still love it.

22. Is there anything you regret writing?

Probably... You Deserve Love And You’ll Get It. No, I won’t link it because I hate it that much. I’m not even gonna talk about it.  It’s my most popular fic too why

23. Name a fic you’ve written that you’re especially fond of & explain why you like it.

Super dorky, but The (Un)Wanted Kiss. It’s my first finished chapter fic, and the first chaptered fic I did on Tumblr and it just brings me a lot of nostalgia. It reminds me of where I was as a writer when I started it and it was an entire fic spawned from people wanting more of a simple 500-word prompt and that just blows my mind. It reminds me of the power of fans and how much love and support I got from it. It really kicked me off as a “serious fanfic writer” I think.

24. What fic do you desperately need to rewrite or edit?

All You Are Is All I Need. That is a hot fucking mess. Probably The Red Halo too.

25. What’s your most popular fanfic?

*sigh* You Deserve Love And You’ll Get It

26. How do you come up with your fanfic titles?

I bullshit my way through them. My most recent fics have actually followed a trend of being named after songs.

27. What do you hate more: Coming up with titles or writing summaries?

Summaries. I always make them so fucking corny, I hate it.

28. If someone were to draw a piece of fanart for your story, which story would it be and what would the picture be of?

One Foot In Front Of The Other, probably. Just because I want more fem!WinterIron fanart. I can’t say what scene because spoilers but.... yeah, anything from that would be great, really.

29. Do you have a beta reader? Why/Why not?

Sort of. I make some of my friends like Pizza read over my shit before I post it, but that’s not often, only when I think I need it. I don’t just because I write a lot and I’d feel bad for constantly annoying someone with making them read everything I write. I hate inconveniencing people.

30. What inspires you to write?

The better question is what doesn’t. I never stop thinking like a writer. My brain forgot how to turn off that feature.

31. What’s the nicest thing someone has ever said about your writing?

Ummmm, I can’t think of an exact thing? I get so many beyond sweet comments and messages, it’s hard to pin down one comment. I think if I had to pick, I once got a message from someone on Tumblr who was old enough to be my mother complimenting me and telling me I didn’t write like a teenager and I think that was really sweet.

32. Do you listen to music when you write or does music inspire you? If so, which band or genre of music does it for you?

Yes, yes, yes, yes. And honestly, any genre. I listen to everything. Everything. But specifically, Emilie Autumn has inspired a lot ideas/fics I’ve written.

33. Do you write oneshots, multi-chapter fics or huuuuuge epics?

All of the above.

34. What’s the word count on your longest fic?

Around 23k, I think?

35. Do you write drabbles? If so, what do you normally write them about?

Yes, and whatever I get prompted for, really.

36. What’s your favourite genre to write?

For fanfiction, I guess romance? I mean, that’s really all my fanfiction is. Otherwise, I’ll write quite literally any genre I feel like. I go wherever an idea takes me. I’m character based, not genre or plot based.

37. First person or third person - what do you write in and why?

Third. I fucking despise 1st person. I just do. That’s an entire rant we ain’t here for today.

38. Do you use established canon characters or do you create OCs?

Usually canon characters. I only use an OC when I absolutely have to, to make the plot do the plot stuff.

39. What is you greatest strength as a writer?

Nothing. My writing sucks. All of it is shit.

40. What do you struggle the most with in your writing?

Everything. I screech the most about pacing and sentence structures though.

41. List and link to 5 fanfics you are currently reading:

Most of these are actually on my to-read list but whatever.

Winter's End by ali_aliska Winter is Coming (aka Fifty First Avengers Dates) by 27dragons, tisfan My Love is Vengeance by seikaitsukimizu The caged Hawk by asamandra Fertile Ground by 27dragons, tisfan

42. List and link to 5 fanfiction authors who are amazing:

27dragons tisfanChiaki_Hamano arianapeterson19 thepartyresponsible

43. Is there anyone in your fandom who really inspires you?

Not really? I’m not knocking any of the other ‘big names’ in the Marvel fandom, but I don’t really draw inspiration from other fanfic writers. Not for plot, and definitely not for writing style. I get inspiration from fanart I see sometimes, but it’s never one main artist who I stalk to be inspired, just whatever I happen across online.

44. What ship do you feel needs more attention?

WinterIron, duh. I will not rest until WinterIron is the biggest ship in the Marvel fandom.

45. What is your all time favourite fanfic?

I’ve mentioned this fic before and honestly, it hasn’t been topped yet, but  In the Company of Monsters by Chiaki_Hamano. It’s not even a Marvel fic, and it’s not even a ship I like, but god, I fucking adore it. I’d love to write something like it, but with WinterIron if I had the time, I think the entire world and setting would fit WinterIron beautifully.

46. If someone was to read one of your fanfics, which fic would you recommend to them and why?

Well, that all depends on what they’re looking for in my fanfiction. If they’re looking for WinterIron, I’d probably tell them to start with The (Un)Wanted Kiss just because that’s one of my most loved fics and I think I did really well with it. But if they just want a general fic, A Great Connection is one I’m really proud of and I still get gushing feedback about.

47. Archive Of Our Own, Fanfiction.net or Tumblr - where do you prefer to post and why?

For just writing fanfic, Ao3. Tumblr can be a pain in the ass, and I don’t even use ff.net.

48. Do you leave reviews when you read fanfiction? Why/Why not?

Yes. But only if 1, I really, really loved it or 2, I don’t think the fic has enough attention. It also helps if the writer responds to comments. I don’t see the significance of saying “I loved this!” if the fic has dozens of other comments saying the same thing. As a writer, I know what comments writers prefer. Longer ones, deep comments pointing out what things they liked, and so on. However if I write a comment that long, I like to get a response because you know, I love seeing the writer talking about the elements of the story I liked. 

49. Do you care if people comment/reblog your writing? Why/why not?

Not really, to be perfectly honest. Yes, I love and cherish every kudos and note I get, and the sweet comments make me want to die of joy. But I write for me. Even when I take prompts, in the end, I write because it makes me happy. Yes, I love the validation. But even without it, I would still write. I do not write fanfiction for you, I share fanfiction with you. There’s a difference. Writing makes me happy. If I only cared about the validation, I wouldn’t have a folder reserved of fics I’ll never post but I wrote just because I wanted to. I write to write. The moment I start writing for validation, I might as well stop writing, because it’s not worth it.

50. How did you get into reading and/or writing fanfiction?

Ummmm I think I was just curious? I was new to internet culture, I saw fanart of Superbat and I discovered Ao3 and was like “wow, this stuff exists??? Words for free????? About my favourite characters being happy and dating each other??????????” and it was a downward spiral. I was like, 11 when I read my first fanfiction. I was obsessed with Superbat fanart, and I thought, what would it hurt to try actually reading it? Like, that was so taboo to me. And now we’re here. Tadaaaaaah

51. Rant or Gush about one thing you love or hate in the world of fanfiction! Go!

Oh, a chance to ramble. Yay. I’m gonna rant because I’m a rant-y person.

I think something that annoys me about fanfiction is not necessarily a probably within fanfiction, but rather the outward view of it. Fanfic has an awful rep within the real world. The one-time fanfiction really took centre stage was when Fifty Shades came out, which only hurt the platform by furthering the stereotype that it’s all porn made for horny freaks who just want to get off.

I should not be ashamed to say I write fanfiction. I should not feel childish saying it to myself. No one should. At least half of my ‘fans’ are nearly a decade or more older than me. It’s clearly not something that’s immature or silly. Of course, it can be, but any hobby can be dumbed down to a kiddy version.

But fanfiction at its core is ignored for what it really is. When adults talk about fanfiction they belittle it and only see a tiny subsection of it, ignoring what it’s supposed to be about. It’s about creating transformative works for media you’re passionate about.

Fanfiction gets a worse rep than other transformative works such as fanart or whatever. Writing as a whole does. Fanfic is painted as this utter trash.

I’ve read fanfiction that made me cry, laugh, feel shit. I’ve read fanfiction that tackled heavy topics. Even on a sexual standpoint, I’ve read fanfiction that was willing to write erotica that published authors wouldn’t fucking touch. Both in a kink sense, but also in terms of how the relationship functions. I’ve read shitty fanfictions, sure. But I’ve read fanfictions that were better than 90% of the published books I’ve read. Even fanfics I didn’t like.

To put fanfiction into perspective, the average YA novel (the age group fanfiction is generally but not always aimed at) is 70k words. I’ve read fanfiction that blows that word count out of the water. And it takes fucking skill to write something that long. It’s not just writing a bunch of porn or cute scenes, that takes serious world building and character arcs.

Fanfiction kills so many tropes that are common in YA and literature in general. I read a YA after reading nothing but fanfiction for a long time and I was fucking appalled? It was a popular YA too. I won’t name what one because you could literally imagine anyone and it’d probably fit. The characters were flat, the romance was outright manipulative and toxic, the plot was dull, even the writing itself was bland. This was the type of book years ago I would’ve loved. But compared to most (of course, not all. Shit exists, but I think in fanfiction, we’re able to better filter out the shit) fanfictions, it was fucking trash.

When I started reading fanfiction, I assumed it’d lower my standards. The first time I picked up an actual novel I was relieved, excited to not have to deal with the problems that are in unpublished writings. But I quickly realized it was the complete opposite. Fanfiction threw my expectations through the roof. I expect fiction to include representation, fresh plots, interesting characters, thrilling romances, and decent fucking sex scenes if they’re there. But it just wasn’t there. It all fell flat. As someone seriously into the writing and reading community I hear so often that it’s hard for plots to be original and you shouldn’t judge on originality, but then I read fanfiction written by fucking teenagers that’s fucking mind-blowing with plot twists and original ideas, and I have to wonder is it really that hard? It’s clearly doable, you just have to take away the fanfiction part.

I have YA novels sitting on my sheld I know I’ll never read and enjoy because fanfiction just made my expectations too high. Which is good in a sense because I pray some of these amazing writers, when they get older will go on to write mind-blowing original novels and I hope that this generation of writers will put out great literature in ten to fifteen years, but for now I’m just… underwhelmed. I think it’s why I read a lot of classic literature too. Shit was better back then.

And yet despite all that, fanfiction is still made to look like shit in the modern media. It sucks so badly for fanfiction writers not to look like serious writers. I could publish one book, have it get the amount of attention my biggest fanfic got and be considered a serious author. My biggest fanfiction currently has 40k notes on Tumblr. Imagine if that were a published short story. It’d be a fucking hit. And there are others that make my numbers look small. And yet it’s brushed aside as unimpactful.

I think a lot of that stems from the fact that fanfic writers do generally start out younger. I’m 16. Others either are or were my age. But age does not equate to skill in writing. Sure, that is a factor, but it is not the entire story. I know a 14 yr old who writes some of the best prose I have ever seen. And even if younger fic writers aren’t on level yet, fanfiction is what’s helping them grow as a writer. But because we’re teenagers, we’re turned away just because of that. Even more specifically because we’re teenage girls (for the most part, I’m not saying other genders and/or age groups aren’t writing/reading fanfic) and we all know how society feels about them. It’s just a fucking shame that fanfiction can’t be respected for the legitimate form of writing it is because of the stigma. I’ve seen fanfic writers say they aren’t real writers because of the stigma, it’s awful. We feel the need to tear ourselves down for an admirable hobby. I can’t say my favourite book is a fanfiction I read, when I has every right to be a valid answer.

We’ll cut this ramble off here because wow I really went on didn’t I.

[thetimetraveler24]

The Red Pyramid

Carter and Sadie are 110% white. Don’t lie, you know they would have white washed.

They would also be aged up.

Sadie and Anubis would probably meet in like some club or something.

Because the god that can only manifest in graveyards would totally be in a random club. It’s a well known fact that clubs are actually graveyards.

Honestly, idk if they’d do the whole gods possess you shtick.

Oh my gods they’d totally mess up and be all, “lol they’re demigods like Percy Jackson, what’s a magician?”

Carter Kane, son of Horus.

Sadie Kane, daughter of Isis.

Set would be overly evil.

They’d probably beat him at the end rather than that talk down in the book.

It’s the real Zia, but she’s badass with her… water powers?

Completely ignoring that her fire favoring tendency would not be compatible but whatever.

The Throne of Fire

Walt and Jaz have a torrid affair.

Because that gives Sadie jealousy.

Even though she’s definitely having her own torrid affair with a god.

They’re definitely going to cut out the retirement home.

Instead it’ll be like Tawaret and Ra were having a torrid affair.

Everyone’s having torrid affairs.

Idk Felix is probably having one with a penguin.

Somehow they do something to get rid of Zia’s water powers.

They make Bes hot.

He and Bast also have a torrid affair.

Throne of Fire? More like Throne of Torrid Affairs and Sexual Tension.

By the way, suddenly Set is a good guy.

The Serpent’s Shadow

Walt and Anubis hook up.

Also the writers have figured out the difference between demigod and magician which is good because that would have made Walt/Anubis awkward.

Sadie is #betrayed.

No, literally, she says that.

The Kanes call up their good buddy Set to help them out.

Those evil magicians start the end of the world.

Apophis who?

Just kidding, that’s who the evil magicians decided to resurrect or whatever they do that didn’t happen in the books.

Walt almost dies fighting evil magicians.

Anubis is able to save him and does not possessing him.

Hooray?

Walt/Sadie/Anubis sails.

Surprisingly blatant poly rep right there.

Either that or they would just kill Walt off.

Cant wait for the Netflix movies! Netflix, don’t do any of what I put on the list. I will be sad.

So recently I was watching a YouTube video on how badly the Peter Johnson movies messed up and the question of how the film makers expected to continue the series was posed. So I’m going to give you my admittedly crack predictions.

The Titan’s Curse

Emo Nico from the beginning.

Bianca would probably be in love with Percy and refuse to join the hunters.

She’d also survive the quest and then join the hunters at the end of the movie.

The writers would probably skim Nico’s wiki page and see that he’s gay.

We’d have the Cupid scene like six books too soon.

Or worse they’d make him straight and remember some girlfriend he had in the 1930s or something.

Percy would definitely fight Atlas instead of letting Artemis do it.

Luke would probably be a cyborg because Polyphemus definitely ate him when Luke got stuck in his cave at the end of the last movie.

Or in some bs move, Luke would be dead and Ethan Nakamura took over the army.

THE DAM JOKES WOULD NOT EXIST!

Nico’s the villain because as we all know, Hades is evil and so are his kids.

Thalia wouldn’t join the hunters.

She’d go off and join with Luke.

Zoe would be made out to be an asshole not a hurt victim that eventually connects with Percy in a meaningful way.

Or, you know, she’d try to kiss him because that’s what a really devote hunter like Zoe would do.

Also riptide wouldn’t be her’s.

The Battle of the Labyrinth

Nico would try to kill Percy.

Bianca just wouldn’t be in it at all.

Rachel would be a Rich Girl™️ that doesn’t give a crap about the planet.

She and Nico would probably kiss or something. Gross.

Calypso and Ogygia would be cut out.

Daedalus and Nico are secretly working together to take down Camp Half-Blood.

Pan would be cut out.

The Panic would be written in as a power all satyrs have.

No Juniper. We all know Grover’s too much of a womanizer to settle down like that.

No Clarisse and Chris arc. Which would be forgivable because you do have to cut some stuff but it adds to Clarisse’s character I think.

The Last Olympian

No Beckendorf. Percy would blow up the boat himself.

No visit to Poseidon. There’s literally no point since he tells Percy to ask Chiron to hear the prophecy and Percy already learned it in SoM.

Silena isn’t the spy. She was already revealed to be on Luke’s side in SoM.

It’s actually Annabeth because love triangles and Thalia is her BFF.

Ares cabin doesn’t back out of the fight because Percy and Clarisse have their dumb friendly banter and she agrees to fight with them.

Nico kidnaps Percy and shoved him into the Styx without getting Sallys blessing and it works?

Nico shows up to the battle at some point without his dad and offers Luke and Thalia his help. Only to turn around on them at the last minute but he literally summons a fricken legion of zombies that would be impossible for him to do without dying?

During big battle, Thalia removes Luke’s prosthetic arm and stabs him because she had a change of heart and/or was a double agent the whole time.

And everyone finds out Annabeth was a spy but it’s fine because she and Percy are dating now after zero romantic buildup.

Also Thalia joins the hunters because they need to squeeze that in for the spin off series Heroes of Olympus. Apparently that comes up a few times based on the wiki page the writers skimmed.

Apollo cabin isn’t there when Percy destroys the bridge.

(Michael’s death is going to be brought up in passing in The Lost Hero or Will Solace was just head counselor the whole time which totally makes sense because he’s like eleven or twelve when Lee dies)

Rachel would just… show up and suddenly be the Oracle now.

Percy’s wish from the gods would remain the same (except for Calypso since she was cut out) and just wouldn’t make sense because it’s not in line for the character they wrote him as in the movies.

No underwater kiss. It would be on Olympus and everyone (even Athena) would be clapping and cheering.

(Heroes of Olympus crack predictions to come)
