Here is a list of books that Project 2025 is looking to ban and the reasons for each.

These are the books they are afraid of. These are the books we need to be reading.

PJO Trauma Candy Salad Part 2!

Part 1

Piper McLean is both an agent of chaos and a woman of the people. After the success of the seven’s trauma candy salad video, she begs (and bribes) a few of the others to join in. The video goes viral, and they end up as a trending topic for 3 days.

Reyna: Hello, my name is Reyna, and I got kidnapped by pirates after Percy Jackson destroyed my home…I brought peach rings.

Will: Hi, I���m Will, and my dad and I are the same age. I’m putting in fruit gummies. 

Rachel: Hey everyone, I’m Rachel, and the first time I met Percy, he tried to stab me with a sword. I’m adding nerds gummy clusters. 

Percy: My name is Per-

Piper (behind the camera): Percy, you already went last time.

Annabeth (also behind camera): Just let him do it; he needs this. 

Percy: My name is Percy Jackson, and I was kidnapped by my aunt and assumed dead for six months. I brought shark gummies!

Clarisse: What’s up, I’m Clarisse, and I was one of four survivors of a boat explosion in the Bermuda Triangle. I brought some warheads extremes. 

Magnus: Hey, I’m Magnus, and after my mom was murdered by wolves in front of me, I spent two years living on the streets. I’m adding sour patch kids. 

Nico: Nico just stares directly into the camera for a few seconds while pouring in black chocolate rocks. "I know what hell actually looks like."

[the-revival-of-dionysus-sorta]

Okay, hear me out: The seven decide to do a trauma candy salad on Piper’s social media, and within a day it becomes her most liked post and starts 6 new conspiracies.

Percy: Hey, I’m Percy Jackson, and when I was 12, I accidentally blew up the gateway arch, and there was a nation-wide manhunt for me because they thought I was a terrorist. I brought Reese's Pieces.

Annabeth: My name is Annabeth, and when I was 7 years old, I ran away from home and lived on the streets with two other kids until one of them was murdered in front of me. I brought starbursts.

Leo: Hi! I’m Leo, and my mother died in a warehouse fire, but my entire family blamed me for her death, so I was put in foster care. I brought skittles!

Piper: I’m Piper, and my dad was held hostage, and his kidnappers tried to blackmail me, so I brought the m&m's. 

Jason: My name is Jason and I was abandoned in the woods and raised by wolves. I brought some Swedish fish.

Frank: I’m Frank, and when my mom died, my grandmother kicked me out of the house and told me to go to California. After I came back to ask her about our family history, the house burned down and she vanished. I brought some gummy bears

Hazel: When I was 13, I died. I’m putting in life savers :)

Not completely unfounded though, the girl thrives in chaos and I’m tired of pretending she doesn’t

It makes no sense but imagine

LEGIT WHAT I’VE BEEN SAYING YA’LL

theres lots of underrated and underestimated characters in pjo but absolutely no one does it like Frank Zhang. My man is descended from not one, but two major gods, was so good at archery that he was convinced he was descended from another god, can LITERALLY turn into ANIMALS, went from Probatio to Praetor in less than 2 months, and had his life force tied to a peice of wood because he was deemed too powerful by a literal GODDESS. if frank isn't your favorite or most interesting character that makes sense, everyone has their favorites, but I'm sick of people acting like he's not one of, if not the, most powerful demigods in the series

Normalize it in a severely mentally unstable way.

Normalize being a Bacchus/Dionysus child in a theatre kid way and not a partier way (though I do love planning parties)

[the-revival-of-dionysus-sorta]

Yes, but he’s never been the best with writing his characters. He always gives them a ton pf potential but never follows through ig? I think that’s the best way to put it

Ya’ll are sleeping on my boy Franks potential for angst.

- body dysmorphia (blessing of Ares, not being traditionally what people expected of a Roman, etc)

- lack of identity and self doubt (so much, so, so very much)

- parental trauma

- grandparent trauma

- emotional insecurity

- being asked to go on a life-altering highly dangerous quest he was almost prophesied to die on while being fully convinced he was gonna die less than a month or 2 after his mom died, only for his grandma to die(?) as well due to the quest

- alienated by all his peers and friends for being the only one who’s truly Roman

- etc

Like when you think about it he’s quite similar to Percy, but he gets overshadowed by everyone because uncle Rick didn’t flesh him out properly (imo)

I’m genuinely angry about that. Like everyone else gets good development and character growth (aside from Jason but he died and got development then) aside from Frank, really. He had so much potential with it too—

[the-revival-of-dionysus-sorta]

Yeah. I totally understand that.

I’m not asian but I’ve always been a bigger, socially awkward person, and I struggle with body perception (dysphoria not dysmorphia but still) and Frank was just sort of relatable to me.

Frank was good representation, and I think the whole ‘blessing of mars’ thing could’ve worked if they’d even just given him time to adjust.

Like imagine your entire body changing into something that it never would have been naturally without your consent (ngl trans experience energy even if I don’t hc Frank as trans)

Even just acknowledging that would have an impact on his mental health and social perception could have given his character so much more depth—

Definitely. I love the books but Uncle Rick isn’t always great with the actual character development parts.

I also just feel like, even if they weren’t really developed in canon, the fandom has salvaged most of the 7 (and other MC’s) but always seems to leave Frank, Reyna, Octavian, Ethan, and Rachel out when they have so much potential.

But yeah, it is sad how most of the 7 (+ Nico & Reyna) aren’t all that developed in canon and most likely never will be.

Probably tbh. The only one I’m not sure about is Hades and that’s just because I feel like Zeus would be monitoring him

PJO/HOO Hot Take -

So I’ve been seeing a lot of discussion about who’s the best godly parent, specifically father, in PJO. Most people either say Hades, Poseidon, or Apollo and imo those are all incorrect, here’s why -

1. HADES - straight up, while he payed child support (shocking), he also…

- told his only living child (Nico) that he wished he’d died instead of his sister

- has manipulated him many times, stole his and Bianca’s memories (ethics on this can be debated)

- basically did exactly what Hermes did to Luke and May but with Hazel and Marie

2. POSEIDON - didn’t even pay child support smh

- only began a relationship with Percy after he was singled out by Zeus ( + didn’t defend him in the slightest)

- only continued said relationship because of necessity

- left Sally and Percy without any defences making them turn to a literal abuser for help

- generally just a deadbeat dad, also what about his other kids? Last PJO book he admits he has like 13 demigod kids and we just..never see them? (Uncle Rick probs forgot but I’m still blaming Poseidon for continuity or smth)

3. APOLLO - while he does care about his children he also…

- wasn’t there for the funerals of any of his kids

- had never even spoken to most of his kids despite having visited camp on multiple occasions

- straight up only started fathering after being turned mortal and he wasn’t even good at it (of course people grow, I’m not hating on Apollo/Lester as a character just as a father)

Rather, the best dad in the series has been there since day 1 - Dionysus. Here’s why imo -

- Has been present in both his sons lives since birth, as well as having essentially joint-custody of them

- literally just the whole thing about Castors funeral after the titan war

- genuinely cared about them and claimed all his children without being asked (those were the only 2 he had)

- as well as making sure they were safe and cared for (aside from the war but shit happens)

- understands the issues that come with being a demigod/parenting a demigod because he was one himself

- there’s more but I have a hand cramp rn so yea
