Why is everyone so determined to hate piper? People say that she was a Mary-Sue with No faults and is therefore and unrealistic character but then she shows flaws just like everyone else, like Jason, like Annabeth, and like your precious Percy.

Piper is confident in her abilities and thinks it is her fault when people get in danger? Is that a bad thing? Of course not. Here is the reaction of most people (Percy was so brave to think he should have protected the others *sigh*) If Piper did the same (Oh, blech! She is too overconfident and she complains a lot!) Notice the difference?

Second of all, (She seriously woke up the dragon by words?) Yeah, she did. She was the one who saved the members of the ship (all of them except Leo). And why is there a problem if she woke the dragon by words? Did you want it to be... water to wake him up?

Third of all, she cant fight! *Ahem?* Last I remember, Hazel taught Piper how to sword fight and by the beginning of the Blood of Olympus, she destroys an entire flock of harpies. Even Jason, who faught better things off called it a "feat".

Next, please stop hating a character because they are not Perseus Jackson. Oh, god even he has a list of flaws but I notice non of you listen to them, do you?

Of course, everyone is subject to their own opinion and this is just what I think!
