Dear Mortals

by jayan0706

The characters from PJO and Kane Chronicles send us fanfiction authors letters on their opinions about some of the stuff people are writing. Read on if you're not opposed to being threatened or dying of laughter.

40. Chapter 40

Thanks for the reviews, everyone! Keep them coming. (And the requests too, if you have any.)

Dear Mortals,

Now pardon me if this comes out the wrong way,- I'm not see to talking with mortals, or magicians, or demigods (if any would actually write these horrid stories!), or any organic life forms, really. But why do you always seem to be off pairing my son with people?

My wife Aphrodite has caused enough trouble in my life, thank you, so keep all this love drama away from my son. Or any of my children.

I remember Beckendorf and his girlfriend, Silena. I bet Aphrodite thought their story was romantic and sweet and all of that junk, but if you ask me it was too tragic for my liking. To me, two dead demigods equals two dead demigods and not some grand fairy tale.

Bottom line: Keep all this tragic, death stuff away from my son. If you're going to play around with his head like that, make it some nice, And-They-Lived-Happily-Ever-After stuff. I've already had to deal with one son dying, and don't want to cope with another!

Godly yours,

Hephaetus

P.S. Love is overrated. I should know.
