Jason Grace

Every once in a while, there'll be a post that says something like "Guys I just realized Percy and Annabeth are cousins." So, I'm guessing a few people are still confused on whether gods have DNA or not. I'm going to try to clear that up in this post.

I'll be using two sources to explain. Drew's explanation in The Lost Hero and a Read Riordan article.

First, here's Drew's explanation:

"“Then you’d be my half brother, silly. You can’t date somebody from your own cabin. Yuck!” “But aren’t all the gods related?” Jason asked. “So isn’t everyone here your cousin or something?”“ Aren’t you cute! Sweetie, the godly side of your family doesn’t count except for your parent. So anybody from another cabin—they’re fair game. So who’s your godly parent—mom or dad?”"

Basically, she says that only your parent counts. Not the whole godly family tree. So two demigods with the same parent can't date each other, but if they have different parents they can.

The 2nd explanation comes from a Read Riordan article. It says this:

"The godly side of your family does not count, genetically speaking. You could drive yourself crazy if you thought about it — everyone is somebody’s cousin, nephew, half-brother, uncle, or whatever. But gods are special beings. They don’t have DNA and each god is a force unto himself/herself. They pass on some of their power to their demigod children, but not the entire bloodline of the Olympian family."

This is a bit more detailed. Essentially. gods don't have DNA. Therefore inter-demigod dating isn't a problem.

There is one question I think some people might have. If gods don't have DNA, why do demigods share similar traits to their godly parents?

That's a good question. I'm going to base my answer off of this sentence

"They pass on some of their power to their demigod children, but not the entire bloodline of the Olympian family.""

I think the gods have a weird kind of godly DNA, The whole bloodline isn't given, but the traits of the parent god (like powers or eye color) are passed down.

I hope this clears up any confusion. And if you have questions, ask away

Annabeth had a crush on Luke and Percy at the same time. Reyna had a massive crush on Jason but briefly considered Percy a romantic partner. Does that make them less loyal?

I just watched Avatar the Last Airbender, and the main protagonist, Aang, has only ever looked at one girl romantically. Would that make Aang more loyal than Annabeth and Reyna?

Percy was raised on a shield and became the Praetor of Camp Jupiter. Percy admits that he was only Praetor for "2 hours" in the MoA, but the rank was still his. So how did Jason promote Frank to Praetor in the HoH when Percy was the current praetor? Should Percy promote Frank? Was Jason still praetor the entire time?

Im going to do one more lyric thing thats JUST with Taylor swift lyrics. thanks @Acciocookies for recommending some of these lyrics.

Annabeth to Percy: “Show me the places where the others gave you scars”

- Willow, by Taylor Swift

Annabeth to Percy: “It's a cruel summer with you” -Cruel summer, by Taylor Swift

Reyna to Jason: “Guess you didn’t cheat, but your still a traitor” -Traitor by Olivia Rodrigo

Reyna To Jason: “I’m right where you left me” -Right where you left me, by Taylor Swift

Nico to Will: “You must like me for me” -Delicate, by Taylor Swift

Annabeth to Percy :“When you are young they assume you know nothing, but I knew you” - Cardigan, by Taylor Swift

It was... something else. I'll be trying this with my other friends so part two coming to FANDOM near you.

Exactly what the title says it is.

Challenge #1:

If you go out in public anytime this week, be on the lookout for people that look like Riordanverse characters. Inspired by @Bluehairbrushninja 's post about Will at Chick-fil-a. Please report back.

My cousin looks like kinda like a younger Jason, but with curly hair.

Challenge #2:

Name the bad points of your favorite character and the good points of your least favorite character. Good luck.

Challenge #3 (cause why the heck not?):

Name as many Hephaestus campers as you can.

Alright so I introduced my cousin to Percy Jackson and it's awesome.

So I put pics of the Viria art on my phone and I showed it to him and said, "Okay, guess who this is."

So we started the game and the results... I can't even.

The actual character| What he said

Percy Jackson| Uhhh... Jason? (BRUH WHAT THE HECK)

Piper McLean| Annabeth? (why me, guys.)

Nico| Percy

Hazel| Reyna?

Leo| ....Leo. I only got that 'cause of the toolbelt.

The others weren't drastically bad, he just had the name on the tip of his tongue and couldn't remember.

I disowned him as my cousin for thinking Percy was Jason. I still love him, and we've been best friends for years, but sometimes...

PIPER: We all love you just the way you are

PIPER: Even if you should go to therapy

PERCY: Ok but if you press the accelerator and the brake of a car at the same time do you take a screenshot?

ANNABETH: It’s damn four AM

PERCY: I need to know

ANNABETH: GO TO SLEEP

(It actually was four AM, I'm not joking)

LEO: Once upon a time there was a werewolf hamster that wanted to write something on Wattpad but had no clues. The end.

NICO: Ehi, what are you saying? I am the one with a bad attitude

WILL: I think our relationship works by osmosis

REYNA: Maybe he was gay, like all my crushes

(I know they weren’t all gay but I just thought of her when my friend wrote me that XD)

LEO: Two seconds ago I was about to drown because of my hair

NICO: I’ve done a test “what’s your sexuality”

NICO: 30% pan, 30% ASEXUAL I MEAN WTF, 20% S T R A I G H T, 10% homosexual and 10% bi

NICO: ME ASEXUAL? ME STRAIGHT? I’M LAUGHING

(Jeez I love my friends)

LEO: I was about to put my headphones on and almost stuck the metal part in my ear

PERCY: First time? Here, have a crab

PIPER: Animes with subtitles taught me how to watch in two different places at the same time

LEO: Excuse me, after ten PM my brain doesn’t work

LEO: For example, now, instead of “brain” I was typing “phone”

REYNA: Somebody has to die

NICO: *joins the chat* I don’t know what you are talking about but I volunteer

WILL: Do I really sing that bad?

*Three people left the conversation*

LESTER: YOU, NIGHT CLUB ATTENDER SCAREGROW

MEG: YOU, UGLY FEMBOY WITH HAIR ON YOUR LEGS

PERCY: ANY ADVICES ABOUT HOW TO STUDY 45 PAGES FOR TOMORROW?

LEO: YOU GIVE YOURSELF TO ALCOHOL

RACHEL: You don't understand the magic of putting so many lines together and creating something

JASON: Why am I the only one who is not a group admin?

JASON: I’m the one who made this group

THALIA: Boys don’t have brains

REYNA: They have, but they don’t use them

PIPER: My spanish teacher was telling us about the passive form

PIPER: Are we studying Nico? I’m confused

Some of them were mine too lmao

Tell me if you want a part two

I saw a post about this yesturday and looked into it. Reyna had a crush on Jason for years, but then he disappears. Reyna tries to makes moves on Percy but is rejected, when she finds out Jason is returning, she starts to crush/love him again. After finding out about Jason and Pipers relationship, Reyna felt betrayed and hurt. But she literally did the same thing as Jason and made moves on someone else. The difference is that Jason was lucky and she wasn't.

Does anyone else think Reyna was shady about her love life?

My brother hasn't read the books yet, so I asked him to rate some of the characters just by their official Viria art.

Percy Jackson

Brother: So this guy is the MC?

Me: Yeah.

Brother: He looks like a bro, like a homie. He seems chill and easygoing, and quite smart tbh. He is also really handsome. I feel like he's really sarcastic, his smile looks evil lol. I will rate him 11/10.

Annabeth Chase.

Brother: I like her name. She looks a bit scary, but she is also pretty. she seems like a "no nonsense" person, and serious too. Her knife is shiny. I like her 8/10

Jason grace

Brother: He looks buff. and his sword looks so cooooool. His hairstyle is a bit weird though, and damn, he's got a tattoo. He seems a bit like knife girl (He means Annabeth), like, the seriousness. He doesn't seem as much as a homie as the MC, but a homie nevertheless. he looks chill, 8/10.

Leo Valdez

Brother: Definitely the character who is playful and a comic relief. he is more pretty than handsome imo. Is he on a boat or something?

Me: ig yeah.

Brother: he seems like someone who does mechanic things, judging by the nails on his mouth. He definitely has Wii music playing in his head. 7/10

Frank Zhang

Brother: WHY HAS HE GOT DA BEAR PAWS?

Me: He-

Brother: He looks really scary and intimidating. I wouldn't want to pick a fight with him. He can throw me across a volleyball court in 2 seconds and I won't even have the chance to say "Please don't". Nope, I don't like his vibes. 4/10.

(Poor Frank my boi)

Piper McLean

Brother: Knife girl part 2, what's up with the girls having knives?

Me: Idk-

Brother: She looks rude. Rude and pretty. Seems like she will call me ugly in my face and I won't even deny it. She is quite intimidating but not as intimidating as bear paw guy. She seems ok, 5/10.

Hazel Levesque

Brother: Aye a girl who doesn't have a knife but a sword. She seems like a baddie. I bet she's really strong. She doesn't seem intimidating but she is obviously not someone to mess with. She is also beautiful. 12/10

Reyna Ramirez Arellano

Brother: Ok, my favourite girl till now. she looks Amazing. absolutely amazing. she gives really majestic vibes, like she's born to lead people. and I am sure she does a damn good job in it. 100/10.

Nico di angelo

Brother: Reyna and Nico have amazing names.

Me: Nico di Angelo's full name meaning is "angel of the dead"

Brother: Ugh thats so cool. I wish I had such an iconic name. Nico looks like he needs a hug.

Me: He needs a hug.

Brother: he looks small. I feel like he would kill me in my sleep lol. Definitely a grumpy guy. I think he should go to sleep. The dark circles around his eyes are THICK. Nice dude 15/10.

Will Solace

Brother: Gosh he's so bright, looks like the sun if it was a person.

Me: He is a child of Apollo.

Brother: That explains SO much. He looks carefree and warm and huggable. and I think he would smell like coffee or sunshine. his hair might be as fluffy as a cat's fur. I wanna hug him. I think he's a positive guy.

Me: He's Nico's boyfriend.

Brother: Wow, they both are really different. Nico would have to wear sunglasses every time he looks at Will. Will looks like a dog person. Anyone who's a dog person is acceptable to me. 10/10

Annabeth and Reyna are the only characters to have romantic feelings for multiple characters simultaneously. Annabeth loved Percy and Reyna loved Jason. But did Annabeth also love Luke romantically? Did Reyna love Percy romantically? I saw this on the character wiki's and wanted to hear other thoughts.

I just realized something....

I was rereading Hoo and currently I'm on MoA and I was on the part where Jason and Piper go to meet Hercules. So, until Jason mentioned that Hera was the one who gave them their quest, Hercules was fine. But after that he mentioned it, Hercules got rlly mad and told them to break Achelous's horn, hoping that they would get killed in the process. Idk how I missed this!

Well, That's all I wanted to say.

Can we all agree that if we switched Jason and Percy around (meaning that Jason was the one with a whole series and all that fun stuff) that the fandom would treat Jason like Percy and Percy like Jason. IDC if their personalities are the same, Percy has thicker that iykyk plot armour, and all that, we would still treat Percy like the devil and Jason as if hes the second coming of Jesus.

(BTW, can we just say that it was extremely stupid to Greekify Jason, like he's been at Camp Jupiter since he was 2 years old and after spending not even like 1/2 a year there, he leaves Reyna - who hes known for at least 4 years, and unlike Percabeth they saw eachother all the time because Percabeth really saw eachother during the summers and quests - for a Greek girl he only knew for 2 months that got mad at him for reminiscing about the place that he practically grew up in, and ends up choosing to stay with the Greeks - just because of Piper, mind you - over the Romans. If that happened to Percy - or in this case, Jason since he's the one with the glory - we would literally f*****g riot as a fandom because of how dumb that would be. Just my opinion.)

Have a good day yall👋🏿

It seems to be the general consensus that Percy is the strongest demigod. I beg to differ. Jason is the strongest. Why? Simple

He can fly, while almost no one else can

Jason vs Piper

Is there really a contest?

Jason vs Annabeth

Again, no contest, Jason is far more powerful

Jason vs Reyna

Again, same thing as Annabeth, Reyna has no real powers, and is not as good as Jason combat wise

Jason vs Leo

Jason is faster, could doge Leo's fire balls, and Leo can't summon much fire before tiring out. Plus he could block the fire with his sword, and he could fly up so Leo can't reach him and lightning bolt him

Jason vs Hazel

Hazel's mist powers take time and energy to summon. Jason could kill her before she reacts with his sword, or with lightning

Jason vs Frank

Tough one, but Jason is a better duelist. Both can fly, since Frank can shape shift, but I do think, eventually, Jason would win. It's probably his hardest fight though.

Jason vs Nico

Here's where the flying becomes useful. Jason could fly up before Nico touches him, and Nico will be literally powerless. What can Nico do to Jason from the ground? Jason can them lightning bolt him, or just use the winds to throw him into the air a few dozen feet up, and then when he comes down and hits the earth, bye bye Nico

Jason vs Percy

Again, same thing. Just fly up, throw him up with the winds, lightning bolt him, or just let him fall back to the ground. Percy can' touch Jason is the latter flies up like 50 ft up. Even if Percy is fighting by the sea, he can't win, cause how cold he touch Jason if he flies up? Jason could again do the wind thing, and toss him around, dazing him. The he could lightning bolt him while Percy is dizzy. And if that doesn't kill him, he'll still be stunned, and can just swoop in and cut his head off.

Which is why I think Jason could beat everyone. This is the thing with these kinds of fights. If Person A can fly, and Person B can't, Person A immediately has a massive advantage. And for those of you who say "oh but Jason can only summon like one lightning bolt, and Percy could block it and then Jason would be tired", well Jason could just leisurely sit in a cloud and wait for his strength to return, and what could Percy do?
