Hey there! I'm going to try and fill this out. Assist me, Muses, because I have a lot to write!



#1: Being told I was a demigod would definitely make me wonder which one of my parents was lying to me. The rest wouldn't bother me so much personally, since I know how demigods struggle. (Of course, then I'd have to explain things to my girlfriend and hope to Zeus she didn't get hurt because of my heritage -- which would bother me a lot, to say the least.)

#2: Honestly, I'd prefer being Greek over Roman. They're more free and open about how they operate, and the minor deities (plus some of the major ones) get treated better.

#3: Godly parent, huh...? Apollo -- where else would I get my skill in the arts? (I write a lot.)

#4: Perhaps I am not unlike Percy Jackson in that my weapon of choice would be a one-handed sword, preferably Celestial bronze so I don't hurt anyone I don't need to.

#5: Not so sure about powers, here. Maybe the ability to write something so powerful and down-to-earth that anyone could understand it (could you call it charmwriting?).

#6: My fatal flaw? I HATE not being able to express myself -- i.e., having my words cut off or not being listened to.

#7: Capture the flag sounds really fun. I am pretty competitive.

#8: The food of the gods, in my mouth, would taste either like banana bread or apple pie.

#9: If I encountered a hellhound in Camp Half-Blood, I definitely wouldn't attack it head-on. Those things are huge. If I had friends with me at the time, I'd force the thing to concentrate on one of us at a time until the rest could stab it where it hurts. If I was alone, I'd just have to hope I could outmaneuver it.

#10: At Camp Half-Blood, I'd try not to make enemies of anyone and be generally friendly to everyone (even if the Ares and Aphrodite campers are a total pain in the butt -- no offense, Your Godships). But the one person I'd most like to be friends with is Leo Valdez. He's funny, smart, and very handy, and to be honest, I look up to him as a character.

#11: A quest requires the two people you trust the most to be what you and everyone else needs them to be. I wouldn't take my GF since I'd be putting her in needless danger, but I think I'd take my sister since she's pretty strong and capable in many ways. I'd also take one of my friends who happens to have a good knowledge of mechanics and is a good strategist.

#12: I don't go to public school, but for a bully, I think first off I'd get them somewhere private. Then I'd take out my Celestial bronze sword and swing it at them in some not-immediately-lethal place. If they were human, nothing would happen and it would all be fine. If they were a demigod, I'd offer my sincerest apologies (unless I knew they were allied with Kronos or Gaea -- then I'd bust out the moves). If they were a monster...threat averted.

I kind of picked up that tactic from Percy Jackson, when he encountered that one monster who created those exact six-foot beds (I forget his actual name).

#13: With a world-ending event, I'd first figure out what the actual threat was, because if it was global economic stagnation, then there wouldn't be much I could do. Now if it were a mythological threat from some powerful entity, I'd figure out their plan and find out the best ways to thwart it quickly and without more fuss than necessary. Then I'd do whatever people needed me to do to help out.

#14: This kind of question's pretty dang hard. I guess maybe I'd want to be a satyr, since, for one, I could eat pretty much anything, and for two, I'd be perfectly at home in nature. With that monster-detecting sense of smell, I'd never be surprised by an attack again.

#15: Would I become a god...? No. I don't think I could handle the responsibility. The powers would be awesome (I'd probably become the god of speech or something along those lines) but then I'd be constantly surveying the world and getting mixed up in those immortal fights that always end so badly. I'd really rather be my own person, respected not for my might but for my insight.

#16: What do I like most about Percy Jackson? The fact that Rick Riordan can string together an epic tale that refuses to stop being funny.



And there you go.
