HEY DID U KNOW THAT THERES GONNA BE A NEW TOTAN ARMY OC IN THE TV SHOW!!?!!!
her name is Alison and the description is
"she went to Camp Half-Blood in her youth, but now lives in the mortal world"
Also the casting call is for actresses 18-22yrs old so how old do you think she's gonna be in cannon? im think in late teenager in her first appearance
Also what are your thoughts on the TV show? i like it so far, and i think that it is taking a much more jaded approach. It's leaning more heavily on the "gods are awful" bit and i think it's gonna be different but still awesome
To be quite honest, I have mixed feelings about the show.
Ireally like what they did with Luke and the changes they made to thale confrontation at the end! That shot of Luke’s face with these watery eyes was GOLDEN. It's my personal favorite scene, really shows he isn't a total villain and actually VERY sympathetic.
I just love the Luke scenes in general.
But I disliked the changes they made with the pearls- mostly because personally I just found it unnecessary yk ?
Another thing I disliked (probably the main thing I disliked) is Percy missing the deadline. Mostly because I just think it makes Poseidon and the gods look to good????
Like, to me a core thing of PJO is how shitty the gods actually are. INCLUDING Poseidon (If you really think about it). I don't think him giving up for Percy was really in-character for him.
I do enjoy the conflict it could bring with Luke though, where Percy only gets to really see the good side of his godly parent and thus can’t really understand Luke and his group. Thus we can have a Percy who has that slow realization over the course of the show.
I’m not sure what to think of how the show did Hermes. That whole talk about him being unable to get to Luke because of his fate or whatever….eh. Personally to me that's just a load of bullcrap and excuses- I really hope the show reveals and treats it like that too and doesn't try to make Hermes innocent.
Because frankly said? Luke was comically easy to prevent had Hermes just not sucked SO MUCH.
Like yeah Poseidon advised him not to go but A)Poseidon broke his how much advice with Percy, so it’s canon that Hermes didn’t HAVE to stay away, and B) how could Hermes genuinely apologizing and showing care for Luke and May have POSSIBLY made it worse?
So yeah, pretty mixed bag for me. I like some, I dislike some- I’ll definitely watch S2 though!
As for Alison, I honestly assume she’ll be around the same age as Luke. Possibly as a love interest for him?
Personally I don’t really care much what she’s gonna be exactly, I’m just excited for more Titan Army content!
I’m hoping we’ll get more focus on them in the show, especially when we throw Alison into the mix. The books sadly had the TA quite underdeveloped, which I hope the show can fix.
But honestly? I’m happy if they keep up the Luke scenes to the same quality they were so far. Real 10/10.
