Honestly, the redrawn au just takes everything good that came out of BATIM and turns it into the real perfect 30's cartoon based horror game we could only dream of.

I Want to Take Time to Talk about What I Love about the Third Books in Rick Riordan’s Quintologies

The third books in Rick Riordan’s quintologies all create massive paradigm shifts within their respective series. In all of the third installments the stakes become real and the heroes are faced with decisions that alter the courses of the series and change the tone moving forward. I want to talk about each individual book and express my thoughts on how they change the status quo of the series and characters as well as what I liked about what was done and how I think they stand apart from the first two entries and set up the rest of the series.

First up is the Titan’s Curse. Many people, myself included, remember this book fondly because this is where Percy Jackson and the Olympians got serious. There were hints here and there about how dark the series could become, but no death stuck until this book and the deaths present carried lasting effects as the series continued. Bianca’s death affected Nico from this point up until the Hidden Oracle where he had finally made peace with what had happened. And even after the quest was over there is a hanging sense of melancholy and foreboding of the losses that had happened and the ones yet to come. This is where it hit that the trials would only get harder and more emotional from here. I really liked that the deaths in this book weren’t cheap and that they weren’t reversed. Bianca’s death had the biggest impact on the story moving forward of any of the death in any of Rick’s series (we’ll have to wait an see the ramifications of Jason’s death, but I think it may surpass this one in terms of personal impact on the characters). Zoe’s death is, in my opinion, the most emotional death in this book and really set the tone for the sacrifices that will have to be made in the future.

The Mark of Athena signalled the start of the seven questing together. This book gave us Annabeth’s solo quest, the beginning of greek-roman relations falling apart, and the iconic fall into Tartarus. This book probably changed the status quo of the series less than the other two books because the stakes were already built up in the two books leading up to this installment, but this book succeeds at building up to the following installments and showing the heroes both what they will have to endure and the trials they will have to face. Unlike the Titan’s Curse there isn’t a sense of mystery and foreboding because you know what trials the heroes will have to face moving forward. We know Percy and Annabeth will have to trek through Tartarus to get to the doors of death and we know that the rest of the seven will have to meet them on the other side, but it’s the fact that this is how it will play out that surprises us. It succeeds because this is the first time Gaea’s threat becomes real, where things don’t work out for the heroes and there isn’t some sense of momentary safety. It ends with the heroes in their most precarious situation, Annabeth and Percy are plummeting into Tartarus and the rest of the seven guided by Nico must find the doors of death, both of which are built up to be the most difficult tasks the half-bloods will have to face. I believe this book does a great job of paying off on the stakes set up in the previous two books and while there isn’t a sense of loss for characters who died it gives us a sense of loss over the fates of Percy and Annabeth, two characters we have followed since the beginning, with the knowledge their suffering is far from over.

The Burning Maze completely changed the tone of the trials of Apollo series and in my opinion for the better. I didn’t really like the Hidden Oracle. I found the Dark Prophecy to be good, but not anything special compared to Rick’s other books. The Burning Maze blew me out of the water. This book gave us the most radical shift in tone and changed the main players within the story permanently. Piper and Apollo change the greatest throughout the course of the story and I was captivated by how much they changed within the span of one book. Apollo, throughout the course of this book, truly learns the pain and suffering demigods go through because of the gods and by the end had resolved to remember what it’s like to be human. This is such a radical shift from the arrogant self-centered character we were introduced to in the Hidden Oracle. There were deaths that changed the characters and I hope carry through and guide the characters actions going forward. I really liked that Grover, Jason, and Piper all came back for this book and it was a really good move on Rick Riordan’s part. While a lot of people are mad Jason died in this series and not the heroes of olympus I really liked the decision. I liked Jason in HoO and having him die after surviving all the trials he was put through by being brought into yet another quest and having him stand up for Apollo in HoO it made it have more meaning to Apollo specifically. It also helped to emphasize the message that the gods are unfair. Jason was put through trial after trial and in the end it was Apollo and the god’s mistakes that did him in and makes Apollo realize that he has to remember what it means to be human in the mythological world. Piper was really compelling in this book and the development she was given in this book alone put her in my top 5 favorite characters in Rick’s mythological series.

Piper Intro

Part #1

[Character info is under the cut.]

Piper has an explosive personality, in every sense of the word.

She has anger issues that she tries to control but ultimately isn't successful at it, no matter how many motivational and calming monologues she tells to herself.

The only thing she somewhat remembers about her life before the circus is that she used to be an active smoker, which she isn't anymore because it's not kid friendly so Caine doesn't allow it. It was apparently such a habit that she asked if anyone had one shortly after entering the circus. Instead of cigarettes he gave her a bubble pipe. She was pissed about it at first but eventually it became a trademark thing she always carries around, looking at them calms her down and it entertains her a bit.

This is also where her name came from. She's named after the pipe. The bubbles, since she doesn't have a mouth, show up when she presses a little button on the pipe. The bubbles then float around her until they pop.

Due to the fact that she shows appreciation for the bubble pipe, Bubble has developed a very weird one sided crush on her. She doesn't care about an npc so she just pops him each time. But no matter how many times she rejects him, he doesn't give it up. (For the record this isn't a ship, I just thought it'll be funny-)

She doesn't like her digital form, because no one takes her seriously because of it. Despite the fact that she's older than most of them, at 46 years old. She doesn't try to help with anything anymore because no one listens to her anyways.

The more progressively mad she is, the more her fuse lights up. Whenever it reaches the end, her head explodes, leaving her without it until Caine spawns a new one for her. It can also go back to not being lit if she calms down.

Whenever she's headless she's tehnically able to talk, but only throughout silent movie text cards. While us, the audience, see the text card on screen, it appears as an actual physical card in the circus.

The explosions cause her to have a constant headache, which means that her being at least grumpy is always the default.

She often breaks things in a fit of anger, like the pipe, the text card... or anything that's close by.

Her head is detachable from her body and any action being done with it makes her feel dizzy.

Currently, she just tries to get it all over with each day as fast as possible or she tries to not get involved all together... which never really works out, much to her dismay. She's often used for cartoony jokes.

Her design is inspired by old black and white cartoons, all of those old bomb explosion Looney Tunes cartoon gags and basically any majorly mad cartoon character archetype ever. Her fancy demeanor is supposed to be a contrast to her opposing personality.

Piper!! :D

There she is!! You made her look wonderful!!

Thank you very much!! ❤️❤️❤️

I like the way you made her clothes look more detailed!! It looks neat!! :0

I also like the shine on her shoes!! I wonder why I didn't think of highlighting them like that-

I'm glad you think she's cute!! 💕💕💕

The eye design? Thank you!! When I designed her I was concerned that her eye might look too weird but I'm glad it doesn't!! ✨

@reblogging-random-stuff-i-like Here's Piper! They're cute, I really like their eye design

If ya like what I do, consider commissioning me. Ya receive the image file: a signed copy and unsigned copy, a speed paint video with my music, and a copy of the background if there is one.

@moth-moon7

...is this the most random idea ever? Yes.

Did I draw it anyways? Also yes.

My brain just went: Wendyn like sandwiches... Piper likes burgers... it's all coming together.

Caine put them in these for who knows what reason, they're both very tired of his %$C!#-

They can barely move in these, so they're kinda just standing there-

Bonus under the cut!

Credit for the censor bar.

If somebody saw Piper and Bubble wearing something that looks basically like couple costumes, she'll never be able to lie it down...

...and of course, Jax was the first to see it.

The mental image of a burger struggling to beat up a rabbit is sure an interesting, funny and depressing one.

Piper Intro

Part #2

The thing with her as a character, is that she basically has two different sides to her that don't seem like they'd be the same character at first glance. In her first post I went into the stereotypically angry side, because every tadc character is supposed to be seen as a stereotype at first, now let's get into the other one.

Piper is a bit of a nerd when it comes to some things. She spends most of her free time in the circus conducting various experiments trying to answer the most random of questions about the digital world. Sometimes these experiments end up being useful, but they most often just serve as a tool for Piper to pass the time since she has nothing better to do. She's aware that she could ask Caine about it, but then she'd get the answer too quickly, and that just ruins the fun.

She keeps notes/folders of these experiments in her room all alphabetically organized in a giant cabinet. She always carries around a notepad and a pencil in case something noteworthy happens during the adventures. She's generally interested in things one would consider boring.

Even though she spent so much time in the circus, she can't get used to the sheer unpredictability of it. She can't help but just be confused as to how or why something is happening.

Is very bad at comforting people, but she feels bad for them so she always has awkward attempts trying to make them feel better. It usually makes things worse even though that's not the intention. Isn't the best at social situations in general.

Doesn't like physical touch, has to keep reminding the others a lot to not touch her. Her reasoning behind the dislike is that it's unsanitary. Her disgust sensitivity is pretty high. (It doesn't make a difference that it's all digital, she can feel disgusted and uncomfortable anyways.)

When she's angry her strength and speed increase. Otherwise she's not very strong or fast. In her running animation she'd be slightly behind everyone else.

She has a drawer with an endless amount of bubble pipes in her room, and she keeps a few of them in the pockets of her dress. The dress also has a white petticoat/underskirt underneath.

Has a soft spot for sweets and pastries (especially anything with cherries or chocolate cake). Has a hard time rejecting them from Bubble... sometimes she doesn't, even though she made a rule for herself to not accept anything from him.

Her fingers are surprisingly sharp and can scratch and cut through an impressive and concerning array of things if she tries hard enough. This isn't very useful since she sometimes damages things on accident.

Is afraid of heights, but you can scare her pretty easily with anything else too. 

Her favorite meal is a burger with fries, and she likes herbal teas, especially chamomile tea.

GDHGJJBKUGNKJBKVJBLNHZGCUCIGGIHIHGFGHJJGGHJHZGNKKJJKB-

First of all, this is already the second animation you've made for me Jesus Christ RMB you put so much effort into these and it's very apparent-

Bro Piper is like dissociating rethinking who knows what meanwhile Pomni and Jax are experimenting :'D

Piper is like those dogs and cats that are asleep but they still eat the food that the person puts in front of them lmao

I'm just imagining the aftermath of this after Piper snaps out of it:

*eating cookie*

"Eh, a little too hard for a cookie if you ask me."

"..."

"...wait, why on earth are you two doing this-"

It's good that Piper didn't realize that Jax of all people touched her head, otherwise it wouldn't be pretty-

IS THAT KINGER IN THE BACKGROUND WITH A MIC??? THE BUBBLE AND THE OTHER STUFF THAT FELL OUT THE HAT?? THE BOOTLEG CAINE PLUSHIE?? PFFFFFFFTTTTTT I LOVE THIS- :'DD

The attention to detail is very cute!! :D

I like the way you drew Pomni and Jax too!! It's very cute as well!! :DD

Especially their reactions!! :>

Thank you so much for this!!! Don't worry about the lip syncing, it's great as it is!! 🖤🤍🖤🤍🖤

Happy (late) Birthday @glitch-pep!!

I really wanted to have this lil animation finished for yout birthday, but unfortunatley class happened...

First time doing mouth animation so it's a bit wonky (have an earlier version that was too fast and I don't know if I overcorrected...), but I hope you like it anyway.

It's based on this of course.

Some Piper stuff I made a while ago!

Her door icon.

The character name text from this video.

Her pixel art!

Aaand this creature. Will I make one of these for every single oc of mine with autism? Yes I absolutely will-

This is a part of the lore that I need to discuss, so here we go.

[Explanation as to how Piper's fuse works is under the cut!]

The process that leads up to the explosion has 6 different stages, each becoming progressively worse. Piper is the one that made up all of this, she wanted there to be some sorta explanation as to how it works. She fully understands Stages 1-4, but her mind is always blurred after Stage 4, so everything afterwards is based on what the circus members told her.

After explaining it to the others, saying 'She's on Stage (insert number)!' has become a normal occurrence within the circus. (Not everyone says it but some do.) It would briefly get explained again due to Pomni not knowing about it.

Although in the show it would be simplified only to the stage names, I'll give you a longer version with the full explanations.

Piper doesn't count this one, but it's still worth mentioning.

Stage 0 - Tranquility (The stage before her fuse lights up. Or, to be more specific: a peaceful, calm state, without noise or violence.)

Stage 1 - Activation (The stage where her fuse starts lighting up. This is the stage where her calming down and the fuse going back to not being lit is the most common, and the most easy.)

Stage 2 - Annoyance (The stage where whatever she's mad about really starts to get to her. Her calming down is only possible up until this stage.)

Stage 3 - Frustration (Some might argue that this is the same as Stage 2, but unlike that stage in this one she has the goal to get rid of whatever is annoying her, which she ultimately isn't successful at. She becomes more hostile than she normally is.)

Stage 4 - Anger (She gets concerningly quiet is this one. No one knows what's on her mind.)

Stage 5 - Enraged (She starts to lose control and take action.)

Stage 6 - Furiosity (This one lasts for the shortest amount of time, but leaves the most damage for everyone involved, especially her.)

Piper doesn't count this one either, but it's still worth mentioning.

Stage 7 - Deactivation (The stage where her head explodes and she's left without it. It makes her feel weak and tired. When she gets her head back her headache is worse than before.)

Piper's concept sketches!

These are pretty messy and inconsistent, but I'm happy that I actually saved them for once-

The general idea has basically remained the same, just some details are different.

The story behind her creation is under the cut! :>

The first tadc oc idea I had was a jack in the box based character who was supposed to be named Jack, Zack or Dice and he had two different versions, one that was basically depressed and always dizzy and scared, and the other was a crazy scientist type of character that kept doing weird crazy experiments to keep himself distracted. The depressed one had a black/white/red color pallete and the other one was more colorful. I didn't fully like this idea so I decided to do something different.

Since I saw that making a fortune teller type character is common in the fandom I wanted to give it a shot for the fun of it. I ended up with a character that had similar proportions to Piper. She had a magic 8 ball as her head and wore some sorta purple/black outfit, and all of her limbs and her head were deattached from her torso. Her main gag was basically that she's pretending to be an extravagant fortune teller, and that she tells false fortunes to the cast just to create drama for the sake of entertainment. Her name was supposed to be Magica, and she was supposed to able to float, which was a bad choice when you consider that Caine can float. Thing is she had too many similarities with Mina, and I don't wanna create the same type of character too many times so I scraped it.

Eventually I was like alright let's look at the cast what can I work with. Then I realized that there isn't really a significantly mad character between them. Yes, Zooble is grumpy and irritable but I was like... let's crank that up to a 100. And boom, Piper was born. (I also took bits of inspiration from the other canon characters, but I won't go into that.)

Although some beta names for her were: Miffy, Blaze, Flare, (I almost went for this one) X, (from explosion) Bonnie, Bo, (from bonfire) Minnie (inspired by Minnie Mouse) Maddie (cuz she's... y'know, mad)... and that's all I can remember.

I was also debating wether her color pallete should be fully black and white or if I should add a third color, like red, yellow or grey in the form of a bow or a different accessory somewhere to match with the fire that forms when her fuse lights up. I also had the idea to make the bottom of her dress look like a lemon, to signifiy that she's sour. But I decided against these ideas for the sake of simplicity.

YOOOOO THIS LOOKS SO COOL!! :DDD 💯💯💯🔥🔥🔥

Thank you so so so much for drawing Piper and Charlie!! :DD ❤️🧡💛💚💙💜

They both look as fabulous as ever!! I like how ya added Charlies catchphrase, and the bubble's for Piper, you don't miss out on adding any details and I think that's really neat!! :>

I like how Piper is leaning on the border, and how Charlie is holding onto hers, I love it whenever artists make the characters use the borders in some way, it makes it look really fun!! :D 🎉

I'm sorry that Charlie gave ya trouble, I struggle to draw her sometimes too-

I like how you actually gave Charlie a nose, I never imagined what she'd look like with one cuz of the sm art style having no noses-

Everyone else looks great as well!! I love everyone's poses and expressions!! Especially Trucy, she looks really pretty in this style! :3 ✨

Keep cooking, this looks great! 💕

And it's done!!! (click for better quality)

Thanks to everyone that lent me an OC, I loved drawing them all ❤️❤️❤️

and yeah, I did expement a little with the style just bc it's been so long since I've done anything digital, so any weird inconsistencies are from that

written by @baby-blue-bubbles and illustrated by me!

percy is playing minecraft when piper and annabeth enter the room, debating about something. Percy, focused on the grind, barely pays attention until Piper asks him something.

“can you repeat that? i wasn’t paying attention,” says percy.

“I said I think you would look so great with an earring. And Annabeth thinks so too but is too embarrassed to say it.” Piper motions to Annabeth who sighs before pinching the bridge of her nose.

“whatever, i just think—“ Annabeth cuts herself off before she blushes,

”Nevermind.” She’s about to leave when percy mutters something that surprises both her and piper.

“I had a piercing. in like…7th? Grade? Yeah, around that time.” Then goes back to playing his game.

Piper, shellshocked by this groundbreaking news turns slowly to annabeth, her hands slowly making their way to her surprised face before she whirls around and shrieks at percy, “Proof or it didn’t happen!”

He huffs a laugh before smirking and fetching a picture from his bag nearby.

“Yeah I had a piercing at my boarding school, and I was digging through old pictures and found one of younger me with, guess what, an eyebrow piercing.”

percy hands annabeth a blurry, ripped, old school picture print. annabeth recognized the boy in the picture. it was percy. maybe about 13 or 14. he was standing infront of what looked like some kind of boarding school, and he looked to be standing in a group of classmates. he looked pretty goofy in the school uniform, annabeth thought. but that wasn’t what caught her attention. it was the tiny, glaring piece of metal hooked around his eyebrow. annabeth almost gasped out of shock. how had she never known that percy had a piercing? why didn’t he have it now? why did she love it so much on him? Piper stood up and raced to annabeths side, trying to snatch the picture out of her hands.

Annabeth is silent while piper stares in awe at the picture.

“How did you pierce your eyebrow in boarding school???”

Percy: “Well, uh. Funny story. There was some kid doing piercings in the bathroom of this school, and during some passing period I just went in there and got it. Didn’t even hurt. But when I went home to see my mom a couple weeks later. Well, I forgot that I had it. So when I walked into the apartment and she ran up to me, her hair got caught on my eyebrow. I didn’t say anything, and when her back was turned, I kinda just ripped it out and forgot about it,” percy shrugged.

annabeth studies the picture closely. piper wasn’t lying, she really did like the way it looked on percy. the small metal ring contrasted nicely with Percy’s dark eyebrows, and it really did compliment his freckles. but really, the best thing about it was how much more attractive it made him look. annabeth looked back up to Percy, imagining how it would look on him now. a dark blush spread across her face.

annabeth cursed under her breathe, “di immortales.”

Percy was staring at annabeth as she seemed to take in the old picture of him. He remembered how cool he thought he must have been when he had the eyebrow piercing. he truly had forgotten about it though. should he go get it done again? it certainly didn’t hurt and by the look on annabeths face, well, she certainly loved the idea of it. Percy smirked as a dark blush ran across his girlfriend’s face, while an idea popped into his head.

*About two weeks later. By this time, the conversation was well forgotten by everyone. Everyone except for Percy, that is.*

Annabeth is sitting on percys bed, watching her iPad intensely. Percy knew she was probably looking through some kind of building plans, or even some of Daedalus’s old blueprints. Percy walks in, sporting his new piercings. he walked up to annabeth, smiling at the reaction that he knew was coming.

Percy: “hey ‘beth((in my head this sounds more natural almost like he’s saying ‘nabeth, as a nickname for her)). watcha doing?”

Annabeth: “‘m just looking through some blueprints, why…what do you wan-“

As annabeth was talking, she looked up at percy and jumped up suddenly, her jaw dropped in shock. her eyes raced across his face, looking at two very new and very good-looking piercings. on his eyebrow was a dark blue metal vertical bar, and in his ear was a black standard tragus piercing with a blue opal gem in the center. Percy smirked, the look on annabeths face priceless.

Percy: “I got these today. We were talking about it the other day and I could tell how much you liked them. Also, I think they look cool. What do you think?” Percy asked, knowing very well what she thought of them.

Annabeth blushed darkly. She loved them. Probably more than he did. Definitely more than he did. She reached up to inspect his face closer, seeing how the blue opal shined iridescent in the light. she saw the redness surrounding the piercings, knowing they were still sore and healing. She adored the way the dark cool blue metal stood out against his tan skin. She studied his face and the confident but still slightly nervous look, probably wondering why she hadn’t said anything yet.

Annabeth: “what do I think?

Percy hummed a yes, patiently waiting for her answer.

Annabeth: “I think that you definitely should have gotten these sooner,” she laughed.

**THE END**
