#both the praetors just disappeared overnight and left him in charge. good luck with that bud!

the discord brainstormed a "HoO plot but better" au where it's more focused on being the Gigantomachy + The Odyssey (like how the first series was primarily the Titantomachy + The Iliad, particularly TLO) rather than the awkward Gigantomachy + 7 Against Thebes + Argonauts juggling, and i literally have not stopped thinking about it since. someone remind me to explain it at some point because i'm obsessed with it. it's just extremely fun.

#pjo #riordanverse #au #the main thing with it is instead of it being the gods swapping characters #its the giants just. yeeting the heroes into europe #for prophecy reasons cause the good ol' ''accidentally sealing your fate by trying to avoid a prophecy'' #giants: they cant stop us if theyre across the sea! #the 7: we should fight them for throwing us across the sea #also in this version there's more reasoning for percy and annabeth to be there #and also Reyna gets to be there from the start! #and even Octavian ends up with a better character #because in this one it makes Total Sense what his motives are and why he acts the way he does #both the praetors just disappeared overnight and left him in charge. good luck with that bud! #im just rotating it in my brain man #its so SILLY but also works surprisingly well really easily
