The season of fandoms

Autumn. The season of fandoms~


 "Percy Jackson and the Greek Heroes" 
I've been reading Percy Jackson series since.. Form 1? I think, followed by Heroes of Olympus which turns out to be one of my favourite stories that came out ANNUALLY.
Seriously. In "Mark of Athena" the author threw the otp of series into hell literally and we have to wait for another year. 
Good thing they survived. ♥

Okay, about this book.
Same with "Percy Jackson and the Greek Gods", the whole book is about Heroes in Greek mythologies, written by Percy Jackson. 
All hail the king of sass~

Since Percy is a teenager who's about the same age with us...he probably knows about fandoms and stuff.  
Something like:
The Hunger Games

I actually lol-ed when I read this sentence.

And Sherlock.

经典!


I can imagine Percy and Leo watching movies and TV shows together, knowing that both of them watches Doctor Who.





Summary...If any of you are interested:

This is a world divided by blood - red or silver.

The Reds are commoners, ruled by a Silver elite in possession of god-like superpowers. And to Mare Barrow, a seventeen-year-old Red girl from the poverty-stricken Stilts, it seems like nothing will ever change.

That is, until she finds herself working in the Silver Palace. Here, surrounded by the people she hates the most, Mare discovers that, despite her red blood, she possesses a deadly power of her own. One that threatens to destroy the balance of power.

Fearful of Mare's potential, the Silvers hide her in plain view, declaring her a long-lost Silver princess, now engaged to a Silver prince. Despite knowing that one misstep would mean her death, Mare works silently to help the Red Guard, a militant resistance group, and bring down the Silver regime.

But this is a world of betrayal and lies, and Mare has entered a dangerous dance - Reds against Silvers, prince against prince, and Mare against her own heart..

There are some arguments about this book for those who've read it.
The idea is not new. The story is kinda mash-up from those popular stories.
I've read a couple of stories about rebellion before. An organization target to overthrow the government with their base in a "radioactive" place? Seems very Hunger Games to me.
People who'll be killed due to their special powers? The Young Elites??
A stubborn, poor, but clever girl, who went into a palace and was announced to be the future princess? I know it's not totally the same, but this makes me thought of The Selection.

Still, this book is undoubted a five-star to me.
It's very well-written and easy to read, which causes me unable to put down that book until I've actually finished it.
THE PRINCE(s)

帅!!!!!!!

Mare's controlling her powers which turns out to be lightning (pika pika)


Numerous PLOT TWIST


And I need to wait a year for the next book [sob]




Doctor Who.
I've been wanting to write a post about it cause Series 9 had finally started. But after watching the first episode "The Magician's Apprentice"..
 
I DON'T UNDERSTAND

They've been killed?? But they didn't die?? And how come Missy didn't die during the finale of last season where Doctor killed her??

And did Doctor kill Davros? But killing Davros leads to a crucial change to history of both Daleks and Time Lords??

???????

Whovians. We're permanently confuse.

Coming to the part two, "The Witch Familiar's", most questions had been answers. Some have left unknown.

Besides the feels which came in like a wrecking ball (and realized everything is just a lie. Hmph! I really believed Davros for some moment when he said he's going to die and begged to see sunrise the last time with his own eyes.) , another iconic scene for this two episode:





lol
Let's don't forget Missy's sass.


Ouch!

She saved Clara, but turns out nearly killing her the next moment. With her evil laugh and sass..hmm kinda psychopathic.
Still...



#ship her with Clara as brotp
Can I have a spin-off story where both of them went for an adventure??!

The first episode I've ever seen is about Oswin Oswald (who'sClara in another life)
being trapped on a planet. Sad truth: She didn't realized she was dead and transformed into a Dalek until the Doctor came.
And told her everything she's seeing now was only a dream. She dreamed because she denied to accept the reality.

For this episode, Clara was trapped inside a Dalek, unable to get out, and nearly got herself killed by her best friend, the Doctor.
Everything word she said automatically transformed into some "Dalek language" (which contains like.. ten words? For one of the deadliest race in the universe their vocabulary really sucks )


Haha I don't need my heart at all~~


For other fandoms..
Pottermore had changed totally, with new infos about Potter's family, and "something" about "Fantastic Beast and Where to Find Them" will be released later. Looking forward to it~

Season 5 of Once Upon A Time had started. But I'll wait for my dad to download it cause I'm not really into it anymore.

Sherlock?
... still waiting for Christmas..
