#xio the Sunbearer trials

[definitely-a-human-being]

THE BOY HAS BEEN SPOTTED

[via-rant]

READING THE SUNBEARER TRIALS (Author Supports Palestine!!) AND JUST THINKING HOW AWSOME IT WOULD BE IF THEY MET PJO CHARACTERS!!

DEMIGODS MEETING DEMIGODS!

Like! Niya would love Hazel! Pick her up and adopt her as her sister! Nico would listen to Xio talk about his cards all day! (THE MYTHOMAGIC AND HERO CARD PARALELLS???)

Percy and Teo would get a long super well! Not only do they look similar, Teo is the most Stubborn guy ever!

I LOVE THIS BOOK SO MUCH!

Leo and Reyna being able to have full conversations in Spanish!

Piper and Dezi!! (HC that Piper knows sign language!)

Also the way they all exist to be sacrafices!

Edit: I have not finished reading TST (The Sunbearer Trials) so not spoilers!

The gang taking a nap. just sone happy little teenagers, what could go wrong

I was gonna make another version where Teo fell asleep and Aurelio walked in and wrapped a blanket around Teo and Xio but I was already having a hard time finishing this so I gave up. Maybe I’ll make a comic one day but for now this is it

Wha’? She’s carbo loading‼️

One of the best scenes in the first book lmao( I started painting this thinking it was the first time they had breakfast so that’s why he’s not in uniform just ignore that 😭)

Also Teo’s shirt is inspired by an Audubon Society T-shirt thought it suited him perfectly

Spoilers for The Sunbearer Trials

Alright, since Celestial Monsters cover just got released, gonna share some theories I have, mostly centered around Xio.

•Xio’s power is vengeance due to his parent being Venganza and he wears a bracelet for good luck to either evade Mala Suerte’s powers or try and prevent his own from affecting people.

•When people’s eyes go black is Xio’s powers affecting them, Ocelo losing it because Teo taunted them and they wanted revenge, Aurestela attacking Teo cause she’s angry at him for keeping Aurelio’s attention, Atzi angry she’s losing, Xochi upset she didn’t get to the stones in time. Along with that, Xio tells the story of how when a couple girls in his class were making fun of his hair they both ended up getting really bad lice and having to shave their heads, Xio wanted revenge so it happened. His powers make bad things happen to people he’s upset at and causes people around him to become consumed with a want for vengeance.

•Throughout the book it’s hinted repeatedly that Xio is not Mala Suerte’s son. It’s pointed out that he’s the only one of the kid’s who doesn’t have straight black hair, during the second to last trial the floor tiles have Venganza’s symbol on them, Xio doesn’t go to see a doctor about transitioning.

•Xio doesn’t medically transition because his blood is black and it’d give away that he’s an obsidian.

•Xio was trying to lose the trials on purpose so he can free the obsidians, but his powers affecting the other contestants was making it harder since the trials search the hearts of a person and Xio is failing to keep them from becoming spiteful and vengeful.
