Did You Hear About The Octavian Discord Server :3

did you hear about the Octavian discord server :3

I did hear briefly of the Octavian discord server- not a lot, just a couple posts like. Way back- but I did hear of it :3

Ok now we have a booping feature I propose to tumblr next ides of March we have a stabbing counter and the person with the most stabs gets crowned Caesar and the blog with the most stabbings gets crowned Brutus

Reading Tyrants tomb is like sobbing in despair and also giggling and gnawing on my new bone that has been giving me new content, context and ideas.

Anyways uh, SoN re-imagining stuff will be like- out-? Even if it’s just talking about some of the random changes and not my current story overview draft

hot artists don't gatekeep

I've been resource gathering for YEARS so now I am going to share my dragons hoard

It shows real people at different weights and heights to give you a better idea of what these abstract numbers all look like. Free to use.

Random bits of SoN re-imagined!!

I have no motivation to write out the plot overview draft for the CJ part of SoN re-imagining because I’ve already written several drafts on paper and converting them to digital always sucks but I still desperately want to talk about it and I’m stuck at home sick right now so this seems like the best time to rant about cool parts of it before I can put it into formal words,

Uhh, starting off Bryce Lawerence gets a character. Since HoO re-imagined expands the timeline by a few months overall he gets to have his moment to shine doing things like; manipulating Percy into decimating everyone in the war games with his powers even though it’s not the Roman way even though Dakota asked him to please not because he wants to try and win this genuinely (ties into hcs about how camp views power usage and stuff-) uh, he’s the one that stabs Gwen, he gets to have a family heirloom Pilum and stuff and like- yeah.

Octavian and Michael get to be shown as being actual close friends!! They pretty much get to be vibing together; silly friends, pals, friends, bros. Idk what I was getting at there, but uh, Octavian gets a character-

Dakota and Gwen also get a character. For plot purposes and characterization Gwen gets to be a daughter of Mithras; they get an extra chapter to actually be focus characters for a second and Gwen gets to like- say more than a few bits of Dialogue!

That’s all of the stuff that I really am excited about, uh. Yeah :3 this was a really weird post but like I said, I still need to type out the full Camp Jupiter part of the SoN re-write
