New List!: Thing I don't really understand about Fanfic, but they make me laugh anyways
1. Submit an OC. It's kind of amazing how people can be so creative while making new characters, and giving them a whole new life. Kudos to you.
2. Excessive profanity. Personally I try to avoid cursing too much but some authors put those yucky words in every sentence. Let's see what a conversation looks like with my new profanity filter!
Exhibit A:
Percy and Annabeth are just about to kiss when…
Athena: Take your hands off of her, you son of a fish! You can just go to Hades! Don't you mess with me, Kelp Spawn. (A/N: lol get it? Fish? Kelp? Spawn? Poseidon? Ahaha…I'm not funny…)
3. Overly graphic make out scenes. If it's more than 5 sentences, then it just gets awkward for the reader.
4. Stories in which Percy and Annabeth are married. I like stories in which they're ages 15-19. I don't mind them being engaged but if the story starts off with them being married then I just find it a little weird. I'm biased towards teenagers XD
5. Thalico stories that go like this:
Exhibit A:
Thalia's POV
I stared into those gorgeous black eyes. I was in love.
Nico's POV
I stared into those gorgeous blue eyes. I was in love.
Thalia's POV
We just met but I knew we had a bond.
Nico's POV
Hottest hunter I've ever met.
Thalia's POV
Screw you Artemis! *leans in to kiss Nico*
Nico's POV
She kissed me! This was the best thing ever!
Thalia's POV
*POOF!* Aww crap it's Artemis!
Nico's POV
Artemis roared, "Thalia! Why are you with the Death Spawn!" I knew our love would never last.
Thalia's POV
"I hate you Artemis! I'm quitting the Hunters to be with my one and only love Nico, who I've known for about 5 minutes!"
Third Person POV
Thalia and Nico lived happily ever after.
LOL…it's funny how in some stories they fall in love instantaneously.
6. Percabeth fluff. Alright, I admit I think it's adorable. But sometimes it's hilarious how much Percy resembles a golden retriever.
Exhibit A:
Percy's POV
Annabeth walked into the mess hall and came to my table. Gods, she was beautiful. Even more beautiful than Aphrodite. *boom boom* Sorry. Her golden, blond curls floated around her head making her look like an angel but the only thing that made me believe that she was real was her eyes. How I love those eyes. Stormy gray when angry, but light gray, like fluffy clouds when she was laughing. Her laugh. It was so musical that Apollo himself must have tuned it himself. She was amazing. I would follow her to the ends of the earth and into the Underworld. Come to think of it, I've already done that…I'd do it again. I love her.
Annabeth's POV
Uh…why is Percy staring at me like that? o.O
7. Siblings of Percy. Usually it's a girl named "Posy" or "Perci" or something really similar to Percy. And the girl is always exactly like Percy, only a bit shorter, more feminine looking, and sometimes younger. Occasionally they're lost twins.
8. Stories that are 5+ chapters long and at the beginning there's a really long disclaimer about how said author doesn't own PJO. It's funny to read although I don't see why you need to put it at the beginning…of every single chapter.
9. Tratie. I personally love this couple but I don't really see how it came to be, because I don't think it was in any of the books…BTW, question. How come no one writes about Conner+Katie?
10. Stories in which Percy disappears for 1000 years and then comes back…how come he hasn't died by now?
11. High School stories in which there are no demigods. How is that a fanfic? But I have to agree, some of these are really well written, but they're kinda irrelevant to PJO.
Review! Suggestions for the next chapter? Thanks for the 18 reviews!
AnnabethChaserocks: I agree, Annabeth Chase, rocks.
Ireland89: thanks :)
Perseverance: Thank you! Yeah I don't like it when they always call each other Seaweed Brain/Wise Girl...it bothers me.
yes: I'm just a biased Thalico fan XD
WiseGirl747: IKR? Rick Riordan basically told you by the end of chapter 6 in The Lightning Thief that Annabeth and Percy were going to be together lol
Anti-Banana19: I love your username. I agree, there are some really well-written songfics out there, but about 90% of them bother me
DemigodWitch96: I like high school stories, but I kinda don't see the point if they aren't demigods.
Daughter of Hypnos: What's a 'nerd fighter'? Thank you! :)
HermesPotter: Nice username. I did look at it! It was pretty good :D
Moglin: Thanks! You inspired me to add the list of stuff I love about fanfic! :)
SeaChick: Yeah songfics…not my thing XD HP FTW!
Lafd: Sorry, I'm not an anti-Bieber though. Just used him as a convenient go-to. (are you WiseGirl747…? Because they have the same Annabeth's not a cheater comment…)
Suzie: Your review just made my day. LOL, Aphrodite and Hephaestus are married but I'm pretty sure they're siblings. Btw don't you just get annoyed by stories in which Artemis and Apollo fall in love? They're twins! And yes, I did see your ice-cream review in ASP XD Are you a Thalico lover?
