~Weekly debate #2~
-----------------------------
In the book series Heroes of Olympus, are Leo and Calypso meant for each other or does Leo deserve someone better? Vice versa?

[Jada]

I haven't read the series yet.

[sophia_thesecond (the fate of ophelia ver.)]

he deserves better

[kai ୨♡୧]

leo definitely deserves someone better and honestly, calypso too, imo
and i did not like the fact that he had to end up with a romantic partner to feel his worth.

[kai ୨♡୧]

age gap was also a huge ick

it's all just a fling for them. not a forever kinda thingy
(i'm not defending the gods. i'd never!!)

[Taffy :)]

He deserves better

I feel like they're more compatible as friends and hnstly they need to work out their own issues about self-worth before getting into a relationship w/ anyone- not EVERY great character has to be in a relationship

[Taffy :)]

well maybe the show will inspire you to keep reading

[⋆˚࿔kiki˚⋆ {barely active}]

omg you have to keep reading!!!

and tbh it's been so long I don't even remember anything other than thinking it was cute enough 😂

[haritha (s-ia)]

yeahh I also think getting into pjo is kind of an age thing... if you start it at the right time you can stick with it and re-read as many times as you want

[haritha (s-ia)]

Mhmm i started when I was 12 so I was obsessed lol

[kai ୨♡୧]

i was 20 when i started 👁️👁️

[⋆˚࿔kiki˚⋆ {barely active}]

i think i was like eight ><

[⋆˚࿔kiki˚⋆ {barely active}]

haha yeahhh but tbh even now i think sometimes its so relaxing to read some younger books idk its just simpler 😭

Just had to ask, but one, are you okay? and two, how did you sneak it past your parents? Please help me if you have any tips

[Mila_13 (11:11)]

For the debate : I don’t think they were both meant for each other that’s it. Also Leo doesn’t need a romantic partner to have a confidence and it was sad to see.

[Sophie [I feel like I'm drowning, I'm fine]]

i don't remember any of this.... def due for a re-read

[dhvani [ia]]

I think Leo was too immature for a relationship and didn't understand boundaries. Calypso also got annoyed very quickly. In TOA I really didn't feel like they should be together.

[Maude]

honestly I thought it was good/cute at first but as I get deeper into TOA i feel like they really need to work out some personal stuff before going into a relationship. Leo needs to learn self-worth and also kind of mature a bit, and Calypso needs to have patience (and a bit self-worth as well) and adapt to being a human in a long relationship.

also yeahhh the age gap plus the fact that Calypso has basically hooked up with every other boy that ended up on her island.

[Maude]

but not a horrible ship in general I wouldn't hate you if you shipped it

[Hasa]

when I started reading the lost Hero i kind of hated it in the beginning.but the first character i liked was Leo i was kinda sad when I heard he was going to end up with Calypso I do like Calypso, she is really sweet but she is kinda of a player cuz she falls in love with every dude who end up in the island and she tries to stop them from reaching there destiny . i wish he would end up with someone else who truly likes him for his personality like (Hazel did but frazel is better)
Rachel or someone maybe even Reyna

[Hasa]

but the age gap is kinda of not a thing when you are in that island, you don't age

[haritha (s-ia)]

def some interesting perspectives here 🎀✨ be on the lookout for the next one!!
