Votes for Piper

 * 1) It seems like I'm the only one for Piper.... I don't hate Reyna, or think that she's a bad warrior, but I think that Piper has something extra, because, Piper's one of the Prophecy of the Seven and Reyna isn't even on it! She may be a strong leader but Reyna doesn't have the emotion? Piper seems to actually take peoples feelings more into consideration DaughterofAchelois (talk &bull; contribs) 21:03, February 1, 2013 (UTC)

 * 3) Piper, my vote got moved to the audience chamber. She's nice:) HunterofArtemis12  ~Daughter of the Hunt  00:12, February 7, 2013 (UTC)
 * 4) I don't have anything against either of them, so I guess I'll vote for the underdog. There is nothing really wrong with Piper in my eyes. Sure, she complains a little, but that's a habit of all maturing heroes. She will soon figure out how she's acting and take charge. Both Piper and Reyna are well-written characters, but I've seen Piper do a lot on her own, which is pretty good for a complaining Aphrodite kid. itankburger1235 (talk &bull; contribs) 11:34, February 7, 2013 (UTC)

I like Piper a lot and Reyna. It's a tough call, honestly, but Piper is probably the most powerful Aphrodite Demigod, she's Greek (Go Greeks!), she's got charmspeak, and she isn't completely useless with a weapon. She has the advantages, and she isn't self centered like some other Aphrodite kids, which means something. I really do like Reyna, she's so sad sometimes and Roman, tough and a good leader. But I see more from Piper's view, maybe because she has chapters from her view. Who knows? Anyways, I also feel bad for her. Piper, is also very truthful and confesses what she thinks. Reyna, will hide it to herself and try to stay strong, which isn't good for trust relationships. It was a close call! HunterofArtemis12 ~Daughter of the Hunt  23:46, February 6, 2013 (UTC)

I guess Piper has some good qualities, but she's also quite selfish. "Jason this, Jason that." That's all I read from her point of view in the Lost Hero. It got really annoying. Then, when the eidolons possessed Jason and Percy, Piper considered letting Percy die. Why would she think like that? I think Reyna is much more powerful and wise. -- ✿Brittney ~ Fata Della Natura✿  09:11, February 8, 2013 (UTC)

I know, this is an old fight but I have something to add. Nobody can be perfect, Piper isn't afraid to think about her insecurities. Reyna is too powerful and wise. And she may not seem that way, if we had to read a chapter from her point of view. besides she is a Daughter of the war goddess, and Piper from the emotional goddess, Aphrodite. I know we all, favor Percy more than Jason (no-duh) but she hadn't even known Percy that long, and she'd known Jason longer, and liked him. Don't tell me, you probably wouldn't consider the same thing? HunterofArtemis12 ~Daughter of the Hunt  23:30, February 12, 2013 (UTC)
 * Reyna must have obviously thought of her insecurities, especially when Jason the idiot asked Reyna to show Piper around New Rome. Reyna made a move on Percy, because she like the rest of Camp Jupiter was convinced Jason would never return. So why should I get mad at her, if she didn't know that he had a girlfriend? Piper may have not known either, but Reyna accepted that he has a girlfriend, unlike Piper who didn't even regard that he may have been dating someone and continued to flirt with him. (Talk Here) HC (Stalk Here) 20:43, February 13, 2013 (UTC)
 * Oh, no we never said that Reyna was perfect we call her flawless because we stan her duh, but at least her whole entire thought process is not:  omg jason love me i have to be perfect for jason omg jason omg i'm useless gee wonder why jason omg love me jason i said i love you now say it back GET BACK HERE AND LOVE ME JASON. I'm biased, of course, but you get my point. Reyna has shown that she does in fact have emotions she's just better at holding it back. And Reyna "liked" Percy because he was 1) power person who seemed like a leader 2) her only damn company was Octavian 3) Lbr, Percy is attractive okay. Hey, I admit she was butt-hurt about Jason being with Piper, but at least she's keeping a whole entire camp together. SayuriDarling   ~ And she tried to survive living her life on her own.   01:52, February 13, 2013 (UTC)

What I meant about the Percy thing was when she was going to let Percy die to save Jason. And Jason doesn't love Reyns back he likes Piper, because she's Piper. And Piper as I said is a daughter of Aphrodite and Reynas a daughter of Belonna. I admit I like Reyna a lot but Piper gets so much flack you almost feel bad for her. But since I know her backstory she is also easier to relate to. Normally I might choose Reyna just because she doesn't have a Boyfriend at te moment and could be awfully useful to the Hunters.
