I Think It's The ALMOST Canon Ships That Get The Best, Most Intricately Woven, Beautifully Told Fanfiction.

I think it's the ALMOST canon ships that get the best, most intricately woven, beautifully told fanfiction.

those nearly-kind-of-almost-maybe-could-be canon couples

the ones that make it almost painful to live with the knowledge that if just one or two things had happened differently, just one or two things: if one of them had said something differently here, done something differently there, or if certain events had shifted a little, just a fraction, they'd have been together - undoubtedly.

you can see it. everyone can see it. but it's not enough - they're still an almost-but-not-quite, maybe-but-it-was-never-confirmed, kind-of-but-annoyingly-ambiguous

fanfiction writers take their potential and they hold it close and they lovingly craft something amazing and beautiful with it - finally giving them the chance to be together like everyone knows they would be in-canon if the story wasn't against them

they spring out entire novels from canon-divergence in the places where just a little step in another direction could have led to them being together

they build whole intricate Alternate Universes where the characters are able to meet in an entirely different way and still fall for each other

what I'm saying is that the insanity of a ship where it was almost-canon drives writers to a specific kind of creative madness that produces the best fanfiction....

so if you check out my graph here you can see the line for the more almost it gets vs the more unhinged and motivated it makes the writers both rising in a wonderfully clear diagonal line and today I will be discussing the

This is why...

All right, let’s break his down @netflix. I’ve worked it all out and I want to present it to you because I REALLY think it’s worth it. You NEED to turn Percy Jackson into a TV Series.

Percy Jackson and the Olympians Five books = FIVE SEASONS

The Lightning Thief = 22 chapters The Sea of Monsters = 20 chapters The Titan’s Curse = 20 chapters The Battle of the Labyrinth = 20 chapters The Last Olympian = 23 chapters

This makes a total of 105 chapters. Chapters = episodes. 105 EPISODES!!!!

!!!!!THEN!!!!! If you continue on to the Heroes of Olympus series you get:

The Lost Hero = 56 chapters The Son of Neptune = 52 chapters The Mark of Athena = 52 chapters The House of Hades = 78 chapters The Blood of Olympus = 58 chapters

This makes a total of 296 chapters. That means AT LEAST another 296 EPISODES!!!!

If each chapter feasibly fits into only one episode that makes a grand total of 401 EPISODES!!!!!

This does not take into account the Trials of Apollo. Plus the 14 short stories that, more than likely, take place between the books.

For the love of the Gods, I beg you, please make this a reality!
