Reasons to love Piper McLean (Feel free to disagree)
She is a freaking BADASSS. She challenged and defeated Drew Tanaka so she could give her siblings a better head counselor.
She isn't powerless this queen has got peerless fighting skills, and an enchanted singing voice. She could literally yeet you off a cliff within seconds.
Piper plays a vital role in Gaia's eventual defeat. On top of that, she is able to broker peace between the rival Greek and Roman demigod camps. (Something nobody else is able to do for a millenia or something)
Piper is a Mary-Sueâ Here is why Piper is NOT a Mary Sue: Piper does, in fact, have flaws. She used to be a klepto, she felt (maybe still feels?) that her dad ignored her and has low self-esteem because of it, and she is a little bit of a hypocrite (because she does think about clothes and appearance even tho she doesn't want to lol-)
âPiper is uselessâ Useless, you say? Then I take it you do not care at all about Percy or Jason? Because she saved both of their lives MULTIPLE times in the Mark of Athena. First when they were possessed by eidolons and fighting each other and then again when they were drowning. And some people say that it was Piperâs fault that Percy and Jason were in these situations to begin with, but actually, people: No. She saw the images in Katoptris, but didnât understand them. It wasnât her fault.
Also, Piper helped save Hera in the Lost Hero. If thatâs not useful, then what is? If Hera hadnât been saved, the world would have been doomed.
âPiper is a whiny brat!â When does Piper ever whine? Out loud, I mean. She definitely complains a lot in the first book about her dad not paying attention to her (but who wouldnât if their parent was ignoring them?), but she RARELY voices her complaints. And so I donât think that she is a brat because it. If she constantly whined to Jason and Leo about her dad in The Lost Hero, then YES she would be a brat. But she kept it to herself, which shows that she doesnât want to burden other people with her problems. Someone please tell me how that is âbrattyâ.
10) âPiper is a downgrade of Annabethâ Letâs think about thisâŚPiper and Annabeth are not similar enough for either one to be a âdowngradeâ of the other. Annabeth is strategic, athletic, and brave, while Piper is driven by her heart rather than strategy, a little rebellious, and also brave. But all demigods should be brave. They sort of have to beâŚPiper and Annabeth are totally different characters. Neither is a downgrade of the other.
Thanks for coming to my rant. Feel free to disagree with these UwU no, hate will not be tolerated.
