Take a deep breath, get ready, throw the drachma and ask a question to any demigod you can think of - send them an Iris Message and taste the rainbow.
Please make sure you specify to whom you're asking the question in your message as to avoid offensive answers from rather rude Ares children or nauseatingly long explanations by overly excited spawns of Athena.
Love,
The Oracle.
P.S.: Please, remember, the oracle will only get in touch with *demigods*. Questions to creatures, monsters and gods will go unanswered. Also, please avoid hitting on the half-bloods, this makes the oracle uncomfortable.
IMPORTANT: Because of the big demand on questions, our ask box is now closed. It will be open for access again soon.

When am I officially popular enough that I can ask my fans to just go tell someone they’re being a jerk online? I mean, really,  it’s so annoying.

I just find it adorable when someone from one of my fandoms tries to change my mind about something or someone as if they are more articulated than me.

People, I LIVE to analyze characters. 



Oh and by the way -  

thatu:

anyone else made the connection “Annabeth and her mother have a fight and she gives her something she hates.” with “Beware of Greeks bearing gifts”?

I mean, it’s pretty obvious this whole book will have Annabeth at its center since she’s the one who will have a problem with joining the rest of the prophecy demigods. I’m guessing this book will be about a minor quest that will eventually convince her to go and the next two books will have the seven of them going around in Argo II, landing wherever there used to be a part of Rome (that’s a lot by the way) ‘till they get to Greece. 

Also, I used to assume the “mark” was the same Daedalus had on his neck (?) but RR showed some coins and stuff as “clues” on the panel he read the first chapter so it’s probably not the same thing.

Though that mark WAS Athena’s and it WAS a bad gift. 



I just get the feeling 70% of the people saying they hate Leyna do so because “LEO IS MINE”. 

thatu:

Go hate on a ship because you like the opposite one, people! Let’s keep shipwars ortodox! I mean, having a character be with another NEVER STOPPED US FROM BEING THEIR WIVES. There’s no reason to hate a ship because your relationship is in danger.

Some people say Reyna’s not Leo’s type. 

thatu:

Look, Leo’s definitely not Reyna’s type (that being anyone she thinks competent enough to rule camp with her, really) but Leo’s type? LEO’S TYPE?

Kids, EVERYTHING is Leo’s type.

Kione was Leo’s type.

Thalia was Leo’s Type.

For a few seconds, Annabeth was Leo’s type.

Festus was Leo’s type.

Medea was Leo’s type.

THESE OLD SOCKS ARE LEO’S TYPE:

Really, Leo will take anything. Besides, he’s about to go on a cruise with THREE COUPLES, by now he may be willing to marry the socks.

Most people who ship Leyna take them as a crackship. Arguing against them now is like arguing with people who ship, I don’t know, TysonxRachel? We are just hopeful something’s gonna happen. It doesn’t mean we disregard her feelings for Jason, we actually hope that’s part of the plotline.
As for them not being each other’s type? I’m pretty Leo’s NOT Reyna’s type - I’ll give you that. On the other hand, they have all this potential, it’s ridiculous. Even their godly parents are related power-wise whilst they both like automatons and such but this is not the main point.
The one reason I’m reblogging this is to say:
It’s ok NOT to ship Leyna since right now is a crackship. It’s even ok to dislike it if you’re a Jeyna shipper or something else - I’m ok with Jeyna myself.
However, don’t ever say they are not each other’s type because, even if Reyna hates him, WE ARE YET TO SEE ANYTHING THAT IS NOT LEO’S TYPE.
ANYTHING.
ANYTHING
WILL
DO.

Also, who was that other girl Leo liked on the first book? That pale, black haired, cold personality yet a little feisty goddess? Or that other pale, black haired girl with a bit of an attitude…the one who was Jason’s sister?
Yeah, nothing like Reyna at all.

So, I was looking at the new on-set pictures for The Sea of Monsters…

…and I came across this nice picture of Annabeth/Alex and I loved it:

But it was mainly because of this:



Leo and Reyna soon find out they both share a soft spot for robotic pets.

aphroditecorner wanted a demigod to answer this: "I love your eye tutorial! You make drawing eyes look so easy! What about proportions? The proportions are always hard to get right, and I would appreciate it to so much if you could do a tutorial about drawing the body shape, please!"

I can’t help much with proportions because I’m not very good with them myself because, since I’m in fashion design, we are supposed to use about two heads more than most people and my proportions are a little messed up. However, DA provides a lot of nice, very use tutorials on proportions, here’s a link:

Another good tip is to use pictures of people. I always have a few images checked before I draw something, it really helps. :)
