#Roman Legacy

[too-young-for-maturity]

Jason was just 2 when he was adopted by Lupa's pack. He probably could identify words and make sense of what was being spoken but could not speak, knew a few words but could not speak. When he reached camp Jupiter all he could do to communicate was snarl,growl and maybe a few easy words like 'hello', 'jason', 'mommy', 'tha-lia'. The boy so young, so abandoned, someone who cannot speak reaching the camp only to be bound by the strict roman legacy which tells you to be selfless, it all makes me so sooo sad I can't even T.T

Gaunt Portraits in Haunted Hogsmeade?

I am an Xbox player, so I only recently got to play the Haunted Hogsmeade quest. Before that, I avoided it like the plague because I didn’t want any spoilers. The other day I was watching a clip I recorded and a portrait caught my attention.

I had seen posts in the past that said that Gaunt Manor is mentioned in the game files, and I am 100% convinced, these portraits are ones dropped from Gaunt Manor.

Or perhaps, this entire room?

The portraits are found here. And because Ominis playing piano is practically canon, the piano definitely fits.

This portrait, is the one that originally caught my attention.

Like… tell me those don’t look like two little Gaunts. Specifically, Marvolo (left) and Ominis (right).

Imma break this one down because the more I look at it, the more I’m 100% convinced.

Here are a close up of their faces, and the first thing that struck me were their noses. They look JUST like Ominis’.

But also, THE MOLES!!!

Like!!! Compare the right boy’s moles to Ominis.

Anyway, here are the other portraits in the hall and what I think they could be.

I am convinced this is Aunt Noctua

This could either be Ominis’s mom and potential sister, or, since it is across from the above portrait, it could be a younger picture of Noctua with Ominis’s grandmother.

Now this portrait isn’t in this hall, but it screamed Gaunt to me. I used it to be Ominis’s dad in my video, but the attire is probably too old? Honestly, none of the attire could be time accurate to my theory because I am not familiar with the mid to late 1800s.

Okay, I reached the 10 picture limit, but let me know what you think!

PJO ROMAN DEMIGOD HEADCANONS:👟 MERCURY: GOD OF TRAVEL AND COMMERCE, GOD OF MERCHANDISE AND MERCHANTS, THIEVES, MESSENGER OF THE GODS ✉

Author’s Note: Out of everyone, writing the Mercury kids was so hard. Not because of what to do but literally Mercury's aspects are so restricted in the sense of how New Rome and Camp Jupiter is run. ROMAN DEMIGODS H/CS MASTERLIST LINKS: [TUMBLR] // [AO3]

So unlike Hermes, where the Greeks saw him as crafty, cunning, and resourceful hence the whole trickster aspect, the Romans saw Mercury more of a god of commerce and trade. So as a legacy of Mercury and a child of Mercury himself, there’s more pressure for them to be good with finances and trades, then being a trickster. Especially in a Roman camp where they value discipline, they see tricksters as pranksters and aloof then cunning, therefore believing it is harmful to the integrity and structure of the Roman military and see it as a nonsense; which they will immediately double down anything trickster and doll out punishments to cut off any thought of joking around. If you have a joking personality and whatnot, you have to suppress that part of yourself because once your superiors know you have the blood of Mercury in you, they will be harder on you and the punishments will be unfair.

So don’t be surprised if you see a lot of children of Mercury being the opposite personalities then the children of Hermes. It’s not because it’s inherent, but their environment making them sour and serious. However, like Larry who was sceptical and judgemental and stern in the beginnings of the books, once given the opportunity to be free, he is goofy and lighthearted like their Greek counterparts. Don’t let yourself be squashed by others so you can fit the mould; you’re just as quick footed and free like Hermes and Mercury should be.

Otherwise, everything else seems pretty much the same with Mercury with Hermes. In terms of Roman use though, there’s more emphasis on Mercury children being communicators and on the battlefield, you’re either shouting orders to the legion or you’re running communication lines. If there’s ever a time to see a child of Hermes/Mercury running on the battlefield, it’s this. You’ll be zooming across the battlefield, bopping and weaving through your obstacles with letters and messages in hand. 

And in the senate, the trickster side of Mercury still shines through as your silver tongue allows you to have sway in the meetings, and you remember every meeting because after all, Mercury is still the god of Merchants, Thieves, and Messengers; you remember every transaction regardless its form and you know its value better than anyone.
