oh. my god. ok heres a rant for you: chloe legally having rory's last name be morningstar does not make sense at all. not only is it an asshole move (@sccoobydoobers ily babe) but it isn't even the way that angels get last names.

lucifer gets his from his title of 'the morningstar' and lux from a latin version of his 'the lightbringer.' HE GETS HIS NAME FROM HIS TITLES. michael gets the last name 'demiurgos' because THAT IS HIS TITLE. it's his power, what he's most known for in his 'verse. i've even seen some people use his moniker of 'sword of god' to be the last name 'sword' BECAUSE THAT IS WHAT ANGELS DO, AND HOW THEY GET LASTNAMES. (god doesn't have a lastname to give them, lol.) ipso facto, if rory was going to get any of her parents last names, it should've chloe's! as in, 'decker.'

it's like saying that since elaine belloc was michael's daughter, that she should've immediately been referred to as 'demiurgos' as well because its his last name! (i know she doesn't exist in show but pshhh) but no, she keeps her own last name, even using it as the name she weaves into the universe, because she literally didn't have any 'titles' that would've become her defacto last name.

tldr; aurora 'rory' morningstar should've been a decker, instead.

I hate hate hate the trope where a new cast comes in and completely makes fun of the old one. Like with Percy Jackson. When the HoO cast comes in they completely destroy any lore that was established in the first series. Yes, new established lore is GOOD, but not when it contradicts the old ones. Like - Piper, Leo, Frank, etc being these all-new magical Olympian kids with World-Domination powers, it was ESTABLISHED in the first series that only Children of the Big Three have that type of power, hence the ban on their existence in the first place.

While Piper's, Leo's and (more dubiously) Frank's might make sense in the series, my point is that in the first book series, it is heavily established that big three kids are more powerful than any other. there is a major reason, beyond the prophecy, that big three kids were banned in the first place. in canon, they were literally the cause of ww2 with hades kids vs poseidon and zeus kids. you can go see how much damage percy causes alone in the first book, and more over, he defeats ares at 12 years old. Not only that, Thalia runs away and survives in the mortal on her own for years, knowing that she is a half-blood. in series, that is unheard of, especially since big three kids have a bigger scent range or more appeal to monsters. not to mention nico, who brings a giant statue plus two other people across the world in just about a few days.

piper and leo, namely, only survive so long in the mortal world because of their status of being the kids of less 'appealing' gods, combined with heras intervention, combined with their own unknowingness of their whole lineage. frank is immediately brought to camp jupiter upon leaving his grandparents house, and not without leaving behind a trail of dead bodies in his wake as well.

about the powers thing, we may not see charmspeak or hear about the myth of firehands in canon but with silena and charles beckendorf being such major deaths for the series (a great redeeming sacrifice and the mark of war respectively) would we have not had it hinted at? even if hoo was unplanned to continue pjo (which is definitely true) we still would have gotten more of an insight to these powers, that rick supposedly did not just pull out of his ass to create new characters.

i think the fact that Garroth never bothered to change his name lowkey indicates that it’s at least a somewhat common name throughout Ru’aun. I mean sure it could’ve just been a himbo-brained thing to do but the idea of it being a popular name really could’ve been used for peak comedy. 

Like imagine a juror getting sent to a random village thinking they’ve found the right Garroth and it’s just some dude.

Even funnier to imagine none of the jurors have met Garroth personally or really knows what he looks like so they have to drag whatever guy they found all the way back to O’Khasis show him to Zane and be like “is this the right one”

[stellisketches]

I now present to you an incomplete list of Garroth-accused people that have been dragged into Zane’s Office:

Roughly 12 twenty-something year old guys who where just minding there own business farming or some shit

2 ten year olds

A dude named Garrett who had really bad handwriting

An actual baby

An 80 year old man

An 80 year old man with dementia who genuinely thought he was the real Garroth

3 blondes who weren’t even named Garroth they just had G names and Ivan was in the neighborhood

2 strippers

A blonde werewolf

The chicken shaman

An incredibly buff woman

A guy who was pretending to be Garroth because it got him free drinks at a bar

A mime

2 bartenders who had a specialty drink called a “Blonde Ro’Meave”

A really good hairstylist

The chicken shaman (again)

A dog

Feel free to add on
