I'm about to have this thread for dinner. And I apologise for any digs.

First off, Hubris and arrogance are DIFFERENT. Totally different. Arrogance is more of I'M THE BEST! NO ONE CAN BEAT ME! Hubris is more of okay I'm good. I can do this. Basically, Hubris is the trait of never standing down to a challenge because you think it should be easy for you, also sometimes gloating over victory- this is evident with Annabeth in Mark of Athena when she has defeated Arachne. So Annabeth has Hubris- she is not arrogant. I also saw someone say it is just a trait she picked up. Bull. ALL HEROES HAVE A FATAL FLAW. Hers, is Hubris. Would you say Loyalty is a trait Percy picked up > Or keeping grudges is a trait Nico picked up, when it is clearly stated as the fatal flaw of most Children of Hades and indeed Hades himself? Number 1.

Number 2, Jason is NOT ARROGANT. Sorry, you must be like mistaken. Jason is humble, despite being looked up to all his life as a son of Jupiter. Give me one instance of arrogance. ONE.

Number 3, enough of this rubbish about humble beginnings. Jason didn't even know his beginnings until Thalia came along. Despite his relatively high and mighty beginnings, Jason is still humble. Kudos, Grace.

Number 4, how the heck can you say that his faults are just unlikable, while Percy's or Grover's make them more likable? I understand that Grover's is....whatever the heck it is, and Percy's is loyalty kudos but to say that his fault is unlikable....well, it is a FAULT. Whether it is likable or unlikable, it is a fault. = Bad.

Now, for what I think about Jason? I do like his humility and his sense of humor. He is also very smart, and cool under pressure, which I like. The love ends there.

Jason is insensitive- probably the most insensitive in the series. He knew Reyna liked him. He led her on, advertently or inadvertently I don't care. But he did. What is expected of a gentleman is simple- 'I'm sorry, but I don't have feelings for you. I like you as a friend.' How hard? Then he goes missing, and turns up with a new girlfriend, and asks to show her round the city. Bruh, I felt like slapping some African sense into his insensitive head. He later asked Piper to contact this same Reyna, then doubted openly if they could trust someone's brother who was dying, albeit with Leo. I respect Hazel for storming out. My sword will definitely get to know Jason that day.

Jason is also very silly to think that the Romans should be more like the Greeks. Their respective differences are what make them both strong, so not the smartest statement.

I also don't like his habit of getting hit on the head :p

I'm done. :D
