Hi. My name is Hercule Poirot. My problem is kind of interesting but really hard. Well, a person called Mr. Abernethie died because of his illness suddenly. Everyone thought that was the reason except from one person. Mr. Abernethie’s sister, Mrs Lansquenet. She said after the funeral “He was murdered wasn’t he?” At that time everyone didn’t care much of her words. But the next day this time she was murdered. The murder seems to end here but the murderer didn’t stop. Several days later her companion receives a wedding cake steeped in arsenic, a poison. Luckily, the murder ended in failure. Don’t you think this is interesting? Can you give me some suggestions or advice for me? S'il vous plait Mon ami.
ReplyDeleteGood night, people call me The Vampire. I am facing a big problem. I have trapped six teenagers inside my house to feed myself. Now, since I feel nice, I gave them the chance to chose one victim for me and I will let the others free. As nice as I was, they will not chose. Teenage is a difficult time, but these are even worse. Two have tried to escape, one falling off a window and the other disturbing my nest. In consequence, now my fellow vampire from the shutters is awake too, and wants to eat as well. He could end up being dangerous if I don't feed him... but one of the teenagers has to be mine. Also, one of the teenagers, whose name I believe to be Lacey, is always rude and will not recognize that the only way to leave is for someone to die. She keeps arguing with me and being insulting, and because of my promise I cannot harm her yet. Because I was still too nice, one of the teenagers, Randy, is now free, since he voluntarily offered to die, and so needed to be rewarded. They will not choose, and I grow weaker as they waste my time. I am really in deep trouble and I don't know how to get out of it. Could someone help me?
ReplyDeleteGood evening, Mr. or Ms. Vampire. My name is Hercule Poirot. I understood your problem is deep like an ocean so I would like to make a suggestion to your problem. First of all since you’ve made a promise between the teenagers, I suggest not breaking that promise. The teenagers will be ashamed of you. I also suggest making another promise or rule so you don’t get weaker and weaker. For example, force them to choose before the next full moon. I’m afraid that I cannot suggest much because well, I don’t really like the idea of killing a teenager. That is because they still have a lovely future waiting for them. So I would kindly say that it would be better if you could free them all and trap someone else rather than teenagers. If this is impossible for you, you might have to make a decision.
ReplyDeleteI hope a good look and a great decision.
From Hercule Poirot
Hello everyone! How's life? My name is Rosemarie Hathaway, but everyone one calls me Rose. Well, I am a seventeen-year-old who is in desperate need of help on taking a decision. I go to the Saint Vladimir's Vampire and Dampire academy, where we are supposed to learn and improve our skills as guardians (in my case, since I’m a dampire). Dampires are a mixture resulted from vampires and humans. In six months, I will have graduated, meaning that then I will be assigned to Vassilissa Dragomir as her personal guardian. In case you guys are wondering, Lissa is my best friend and the last vampire left from the Dragomir Royalty. Lately, there has been this crazy, fanatic and masochistic maniac trying to kill her family, which he was actually able to do unless for her, the last member. Here is my tough decision: shall I save her and run away from the academy, or tell our headmaster what is happening and leave it all in his hands? Well, vampires are in constant need of blood, meaning that if we ran away, I would have to become her "source". That is forbidden, but who am I to constantly follow the law? I see it as a suggestion, not a demand. If I told the headmaster, there could be that he does not believe me and therefore is not eager to help, leaving us to then watch as Lissa slowly dies. The only problem, that is the same time a solution, in this situation is that my friend is very special: all vampires come with the gift of being able to control one of the four elements, but she controls a new one known as spirit. That wouldn’t be such a problem if she hadent resurrected me after a car crash, leaving me to then become one of the rare cases where a person if shadow kissed; she died but somehow someone brought her back. That is unnatural, meaning many might want to use her after knowing she has the power to heal, so thus no one knows. Anyhow, would any of you guys bother to give me some guidance? It is a very hard choice that might affect not only my future, but also Lissa's. Help, please?

ReplyDeleteMr. Vampire, I completely understand your point of view. By my analysis of your writing, I would presume you are a Strigoi type of vampire, so therefore any of this choices would be perfectly suitable for you and your nature. Well, as you get weaker and your hunger and cravings for blood increase and you start to enter a state of desperation, I advice you my first very simple solution: play a game with the teenagers, and the looser is the one to stay with you and die. Russian roulette is always a good solution since the one who stays is the one who is certainly dead, and thus he is not able to complain. Another solution would be, well, suicide. I am sure that among all your greatness, you have killed many before, and possibly it is time for this carnage to stop. Fire is a fast death, and there is a fire place in this mansion of yours, I am sure. A wooden stake stuck right in the heart is always a very useful and fast method too. A third solution would be freeing all of the teenagers since you seem to be a very merciful soul (if you had a one), and therefore you can surely go to any other mansion where there are sure to be plenty of stupid teenagers who want to prove themselves brave. Also, if you feel like breaking your promise, you can keep all of them and have a majestic dinner, having the teens as the entrance, main plate and dessert. There are a plethora of choices, now it is only to you, Mr. Vampire, to choose the one that pleases you the most. Believe me, I have indeed a good experience with vampires, assuming I protect them and am partially one, and therefore any of these methods shall work perfectly fine for you.
ReplyDeleteHey! I’m John Conlan, and I have a very hard problem to solve. I have no idea about what I should do. It all started when Lorraine and me very at Mr. Pignati’s house and we were roller-skating, and Mr. Pignati fell down the stairs. An ambulance picked up him, but he gave us privilege to stay in his house. The next day, we decided to have a party there with two other friends. But the party turned out to be a really big one, and we partially destroyed his house, and when he got home, there was no smile in him. He was very sad and mad. Now my problem is that I don’t know what to say to him. Should I just let it be? Or should I call him and ask if he needs helping cleaning the house? Please someone help me, because I really don’t know about what do about this. Can some please respond and give me an idea of what I should say to Mr. Pignati. Thanks a lot! Greetings from John Conlan.
ReplyDeleteHey! My name is Arthas, I am a death knight that is going to become the lich king, extremely strong unholy warrior and supreme leader of the legion's scourge, army of dead people raised back to fight for me. Now I am about to face the hardest challenge so far, kill my own father and slay my people. I need help because I am not sure if I should slay my father for supreme power and control of a whole unstoppable army. Also there is a person talking to me through my rune sword frostmourne saying that he will make sure that I won't die until I reach supreme power. There are demon lords who help me raise the dead and tell me what to do next. So I am wondering if my father’s death plus my people’s death is worth supreme power plus an army that can’t be killed.
ReplyDeleteJohn Conlan I think that you should call him and ask if he needs help since it is mostly your fault. Now if you don’t want to you don’t have to but it’s a good thing if you don’t want him knocking on your door with a weapon in his hands. Also think about how you would feel if they did that to your house. I would like for the person to apologize to me since they partially broke my house. So just consider the points and maybe give him a call later on throughout the day.
ReplyDeleteHey guys, I’m Percy Jackson and I have a problem, better, a decision to make. Some days ago, I was battling some demons in Mount Saint Helen and was losing the fight, almost dying. With all my power, I summoned the water forces that I still had (my dad is Poseidon, the Greek god of the seas) and got out of there as a meteor of water, fire and ashes. This is where things get difficult: I fell in an island called Ogygia and met a very nice girl called Calypso. She helped myself to heal and we became friends. The problem is: I’m in the middle of a quest together with my friends to save Olympus (my divine family) from the evil Titans who want their power back. These friends (Annabeth, Tyson and Grover) are risking their lives to save our family and they are in a lot of danger. Now, here comes the worst part: Annabeth kissed me before she disappeared in Mount Saint Helen (she was fighting there also) and Calypso is showing that she loves me too! Now, what should I do? Should I stay with Calypso or should I go save my friends? For the gods, can somebody help me?
ReplyDeleteDear Vampire, here goes my solution to your problem. First thing: why did you make this promise? I know you were trying to be nice, but, if you wanted to eat, why didn’t you just went and ate the teenagers? In the Modern Greek world, monsters are not as merciful as you. Anyhow, let’s solve your problem. There are many things you can do to decide who you’ll eat and even like this be fair, just and, well, kind of merciful. Let’s start with a contest: you can decide a theme for a contest and propose to them, for example, an athletic contest; who loses gets eaten. Another way is random selection: ask them to choose a number from one to ten and then you choose a number. The one who gets picked first gets eaten. How you see, there are many ways to solve your problem! One last tip: monsters in my world don’t have mercy and always break their promises. So, if you want to continue being a respectable monster (or whatever you call yourself), just break this promise and eat them all! I hope I helped you; if not, try to find an empousa, or Greek vampire. For sure they will have brand new techniques of killing mortals! Believe me, I met them in last July and it wasn’t any fun! Wishing you the best meals ever, Percy.
ReplyDeleteDear Percy Jackson, I believe your decision can be simplified into on simple word: morals. Calypso, by one side, has helped you heal and might have fallen in love with you, but wouldn’t Annabeth do the same thing for you if she could? It has probably been a short time since you have met this new island girl, but I deduce you have known Annabeth for a longer time, so you should then stick with her. Grover has been your friend and guardian since the earliest times. You trust him and at the same time you evidently do indeed care for him. From my personal experience and my previous mistakes, I'd then make an assumption: Calypso is probably a temporary crush you are currently suffering, but Annabeth and Grover are obviously friends who have always been there for you and that you know you can always count on. If you were in Annabeth's position and she met someone who helped her and she fell in love, wouldn’t you want her to still come back and risk her life to save you? Well then, based on the following facts I do believe that it can be noticeably proven the best choice would be leaving Calypso and going to the rescue of Grover and Annabeth. The choice is to be taken by you only, but I believe this would be the most suitable choice to be done by you, Percy Jackson.
ReplyDeleteHey Arthas! I read your problem and arrived at an obvious conclusion: of course you shouldn’t kill your father and your people to stay with the power! I tell you this because I’m passing by the same thing in my life. Two sides of my family (which is huge) are fighting for power and are trying to kill each other: fathers betraying sons, marriage betrayal...this is current in my family’s world. But coming back to your problem: it is not nice either to kill your father, the one who generated you, to get power and an invincible army or your people, the ones who support you everyday! Have you ever wondered who pays the taxes of the kingdom? And who works hard everyday for you to have food and comfort? Your people, of course! If you become a mean ruler who kills everybody in front of you for power, your people will revolt against you! Another thing: it is much better to have loyal people who are not so powerful to your side than to have a supreme kingdom full of despair, desire of vengeance and civil war! Wishing you take the right decision for you, your father and your people, Percy.

ReplyDeleteLife is so hard. Hi, my name is Aurelia and I'm Ceasar's daughter, the princess. My father gave my a tiger, as for a pet and I called him Boots. He is my lovely animal, who is trained to be a pet and couldn't live being a wild tiger, mainly because we took his fangs and left him with poutches. A big problem I had to face was my father, Ceasar. He admires the gladiators and doens't care about the dead animals, who are killed at the Colesium. How can he be that mean and don'care about the innocent animals? Also, Julius, a slave, takes care of my tiger and just because he is in the last class of the hierarchy, my father treats him so badly. How come? Ceasar wants to take Boots from me, now, thinking he is not safe. I hate my father and dont love him anymore. I DON'T LOVE HIM!He acts in a such a mean way. Actually, I don't know what to do! Can somebody please help me?
ReplyDeletePercy Jackson,
ReplyDeleteYou should go back to Annabeth since she helped you out throughout the quest, didn't she? I bet Annabeth and Grover have always had your back and tried to save you when you were in trouble. From what I read from a book about Greek Mythology in Uncle Morris’s basement, Calypso is a cursed immortal that will always have a one-sided love towards the ones who end up in her island. Why waste time on something you now know is impossible? I find Calypso an evil queen that is trying to corrupt you. New people can be deceiving, so don't let them come into your mind. Don't worry; my camp director is the same. An evil, incomprehensible dictator. Just simply say to her "I prefer not to" when she asks you to stay. Now, can someone please help me with my problem?
John Colan,I have aa solution to your problem. Even though you and Lorraine shoudn't have done the party at Mr. Pignati's house, you should call him and apalogize about the huge mess you guys left at his house. Also, you should help him organize his house, especially his collection of pigs. because it was all yours and Lorraines fault. If you decide to not talk to Mr. Pignati at all, then you will lose his friendship and maybe another huge problem could appear.

Unfourtunately, I have come up with my own problem. My name is Torak, and i have been expelled from the clans of the deep and open forest. I am now living as an outcast, and have no idea what to do. I was expelled becasue I bear the mark of a Soul Eater, which are evil mages who use their powers to try to conquer and rule the world. I bear their tatoo becasue last time i went to spy on them they caught me and forced e to wear this tatoo. Now, my people think im a Soul Eater and, as I said, outcasted me. I now think the only way to convince them that im not a Soul Eater is to find the one that did it to me. But right now he is trying to kill me. Please can someone tell me what to do or give me more options on how to make peace with the clans?

ReplyDeleteDear Arthas,
ReplyDeleteIn my opinion, anything is worth supreme power and an immortal army. First of all, not having to kill any more of your army would pay off for killing your people. Think like this: you kill some now, and you won’t have to kill any later! Besides, who cares about a few souls? Also, supreme power is so great that you will not need your father. My power is reproachfully limited, and still I enjoy it very much. With supreme power, no one can blame you for your father’s murder, and people will obey you even if you ask for forgiveness. I am willing to kill as many teenagers as I need to keep the little power I have, why should your father bother you? Finally, an army of dead people will not be of any threat to you. Humans are dangerous, and their ambitions and ego will lead them to rise against you. They will want your power, or simply to show themselves to be superior, like ignorant animals driven by instincts. Dead people do not have ambitions or any ego, so they will never be a danger to your unlimited power. Demons, after all, can be helpful and want to help you, for obscure reasons which I cannot decipher. Therefore, you should kill your father and your people in cold blood, and enjoy your army and power.
I hope this helped,
The Vampire
hi, my name is Richie Perry and i have a couple of problems. My first problem is that I am stuck in the middle of a war. I am here on Nam for 4 months now and im sick of it. My second problem is that I dont know how to handle what I did yesterday. My squad was responsible to save a village from an attack by the VC. They want to prove to the southern vietnamese that us Marines can not protect them. When we arrived in the village the charlies had already struck. every thing was burning and dead bodies were lying around every were. We were suposed to check the huts for charlies hiding. When i entered my hut i turned around and looked into thee muzzle of a gun. i heard the trigger clicking but the gun didnt shoot. He then tried to hit me with his gun. I froze but when i was hit in the head i came alive. i ripped up my gun and emtied two clips into his face. Today I cant really handle my action. i dont know if i did the right thing or not. Somebody help me!
ReplyDeleteMr. John Conlan this is Hercule Poirot. I think it will be very nice to simply say sorry and volunteer to clean his house with your friends. It would be better if you and your friend give him something to show apolgize better. I hope you to have a good decision and both be happy.

ReplyDeleteDear Richie Perry,
ReplyDeleteI think you should simply continue on doing exactly what you are right now. Personally I don't like war either, since I have no emotional control of my enemy directly, neither can I drink their blood in peace. I understand though that you are not a vampire like me, so this should not bother you. Therefore, you should simply keep fighting as long as you can. There really is nothing you can do to escape military service now, I assume. About the charlie, you should not get upset about it. He would have killed you if possible, and even tried to, so you simply tried to defend yourself. Also, I don't see any problem with killing enemies in general. If you want to stay alive, you should have realized that a few lives have got to go down. This is why I say that you should not worry about anything. Just keep going.
I hope this helps,
The Vampire
Hi, my name is Percy Jackson and I have a problem that is... a little different from the others. I have an immense poblem controling myself. I'm impertinent, I just don't think when I say stuff. For example, the god of war Ares asked me to do a mission for him. At first I really didn't care. Then he convinced me. So I said that I accepted his mission. Then I asked him what was the problem and I told him "What interrupted your date? Something scare you off?" This is one thing I would of regreted in a normal situation. But take my advice, never talk to a god like that, especially not to Ares. Otherwise trust me, you will regret it.
ReplyDeleteI also have another problem with fighting. When I was in school, I would defend my friend Grover from being bullied. So obviously, it all ended in a fight. And you know what's the best part? The blame would always fall on me. Or I get expelled, suspended or in really big trouble. So please someone help me with my problems.

ReplyDeleteDear Richie Perry,
ReplyDeleteI can give you advices on your problems. I think you should keep on fighting the war whether you like it or not. First of all, your not doing this for you, your doing it for your country and for your honor. And second of all, don't you think it's going to be kind of hard to withdraw yourself from the war? No, if you can, than it would probably be laborious. Also about the village, I think that you did the right thing.The man would of killed you anyways, the only thing that you did is save your life. And anyways, you're in a war, you're here to kill your enemies, not kiss them or hugh them. So, I beleive you did the right thing.
Your friend, Percy Jackson
Dear Arthas,
ReplyDeleteI can maybe help or give you some advice on your problem. So,if I understood your message, you're saying that you can kill your father and your people for extreme power. Now I think that that is extrmely simple, you should KILL your father. You should do it because first of all, you said you were unholy, which means you don't beleive in God.So if you kill your father, God won't punish you, you don't even beleive in him. Another reason is that your father is going to die someday or another. He's probably old enough now, it's his time to die. Also, if you're supreme lord, you can conquer the world, and I mean how cool is that? No limits, no boundaries. Everything is yours. So, take my advice and kill your father.
Sincerly, Percy Jackson
Hey Guys!! My name is Annabeth Chase and I am a young demigod, daughter of the god Athena, which I really hope you all have heard about. I'm going through a really rough time in my life right now and I was really hoping you all could help me. So lately my best friend Percy Jackson and I have been dealing with many negative things. So the main thing going on right now is that Kronos, the Titan Lord has resurrected in someone else's body, and he is about to strike Olympus in about one week or so. You might all be thinking, "Oh, that's no problem, the Gods already killed him once, why won't they do it again!", well it's not so simple like that. Together with Kronos, the most feared monster is also coming to strike Olympus, Typhon. The gods are trying to deal with him and, in consequence, us young Demigods are having to deal with Kronos. We are getting all the help possible, such as from mythological creatures like Satyrs and Centaurs, but it really doesn't seem to be enough since Kronos has a whole army of monsters. The biggest problem is, that it my life, right now, I’m going through some serious emotional damage. So remember how I mentioned how Kronos took someone else's body, and not his own. Well, the body he took belongs to one real close friend of mine; he was the closest think I had to a brother, Luke. That seems like a lot to take, but it's really not all. Percy, my best friend, has seem to have found a new friend, Rachel. People are saying I'm just being annoying and that there is nothing going on between them and that I should stop being jealous. Well I am really not willing to lose another friend, especially the friend I have the biggest crush on. I started getting the idea that he likes Rachel ever since I tried to get him to go out with me and he pretended nothing happened. I might be going a little over board with all this jealousy thing, but there is a prophecy that says the next child of the big three to turn sixteen will make a decision that will either destroy or save Olympus, Percy is a son of Poseidon and is turning sixteen in one week, so that might be where he is getting all nervous about, I really hope that’s it because if it’s not, I will probably become crazy just right about now. So, can any of you guys help me out?
ReplyDeleteTo Arthas
ReplyDeleteI think if the will for supreme power is so great you should kill your father. But if I were you i would try to reach the supreme power by the way every one does, by fighting thier way up. And that dude talking to you over your sword, dont trust him. I have heard of cases like yours before and i learned that trusting demons never pays off. You should not kill your father just for power and an unstopable army. In history many men reached immense power and most of them reached this through thier own hard work, not because of some demons trickery to gave them power. In the war i am fighting in Vietnam, our army is not invincible, but we can still win. Anything is possible if you work for it.

To Percy Jackson(Arthur)
ReplyDeleteI think you should try to get of the island and go back to help Annabeth. You should not leave your friends in your little war all by them selves, that is the worst thing you can do. And about your two other problems, you should not leave Annabeth just because you met calypso. You might hurt her but help more than only one person. Go and do the right thing dont leave your friends in that mess all by them selves. During my war I have learned one thing; do not leave your friends under any cicumstance. They are the one thing that will allways give you energy and support.

Dear character who just recieved the information that their uncles beutiful and 45-year of construction towers are going to be destroyed. Even though the new lawyers got into Epiphany and want to destroy your uncles construction, because it is not autorized, you should try to save it. First of all, you should get more detailed information about this lawyers, just to check if they are actually a real lawyer. Then, try to convince them it is a work of art or a historical building by giving them lots of profes. Before they tear the towers down, you need to find as many experts to try to proove your point. You can´t let them destroy such a munificent tower!Go for it and don´t wast time.
ReplyDelete- Aurelia
Dear Percy Jackson, (Arthur)
ReplyDeleteAs mentioned by many people, you should choose going back to Annabeth. When she kissed you before she left, she showed how much she really loved you, now Calypso has only known you for a couple of days or months, how are you sure she really loves you? If you go back, you might regret leaving Calypso, but if you stay, you might regret staying. Hopefully you still you remember your brother, your mom and all of the people you love. Have you thought about that? Have you thought about what they are feeling, they miss you Percy, they love you a lot and I know that they all want you to come back, and I also know that deep inside you know that the right decision to make is leave the island and go back to your loved ones, continue the mission you were in save Olympus and all the gods, and for once, don't look back.
Your Dear Friend,
Annabeth Chase
Dear Arthas,
ReplyDeleteI believe the right decision to make is to not kill your father or your people. Being human we all want power, though deep inside, we all want love to. Your people probably love you and so does your father, if you kill them I know that you will regret your actions, and that having supreme power won't help in anything. I have recently lost a really close friend of mine and I know exactly how it feel. It's painful, it hurt every second they come to your mind, which, by the way, is a lot. So listen to me when I way give up power, and never ever kill any loved one in order to get it.
Greetings from Annabeth Chase :)
Hello to everyone. I am Margaret Rose Kane, daughter of the Clarion State University teacher, Naomi Landau. Firstly this summer, she had to go to an archeological research in Peru, and I was left here. She created the “What to do with Margaret” problem. I always could go to my great-uncles´s (Alex and Morris) house, them being Hungarian. They love me because I can understand them and I can be their friend. They also love me because my name, Margaret Rose, is the same name as their sister (my grandmother´s name), that died. But this year was different. They had travelled to Mexico and couldn´t stay with me. I had to go to Camp Talequa, where I was bullied by the Alums, who went to camp ever since they were children. They played pranks on me, like wetting my bed and clogging toilets and blamed it all on me. The director, Mrs. Kaplan, always used “we” instead of “I” and “us” instead of me. She was a dictator, and I love singing “God save the queen” (British national anthem) dedicated to her. My uncle came to my rescue, and got me out of there. Mrs. Kaplan´s son, Jacob, helped us get home by car and when he got there, he got to see my uncles’ tower that was 45-years-old. He fell in love with them, as he said to me, and is coming now every Wednesday to finish the painting in the ceiling of my own room in Uncles’ house of a rose, my middle name. After escaping this huge tower, I discovered something. I have a huge problem. I love the incomplete towers in their backyard. There are pendants, different colors and a whole story about them. Now, some lawyers that moved into Epiphany want to tear them down since it has no blueprints and was not authorized. They don't consider it a work of art or a historical building! Please help me save the towers! What should I do? The demolishment is next week!
ReplyDeleteAnnabeth Chase, I have a solution to your problem about Percy and Rachel. You could show him that he really means a lot to you, and show all the love you have towards him. I bet you that Rachel is just a pebble in your path of being together with Percy. If it doesn´t work, just follow another path, like someone else. It may take a while to know another one and get over Percy, but that´s how life is. As my Uncle Morris says when he explains to Jake about the towers, “I found time by not rushing through”. Find time and reason to do what I´m telling you to. If he likes you back, he will respond to you, but he can still be still with Rachel, so be calm. You can show your feelings to Percy or find another romantic interest. This is how you can solve your problem, okay?
ReplyDeleteGood luck,
Margaret Rose Kane
Hello.... I'm Nicko Di'Angelo and I have a problem. My friend Percy well... he asked me a favor, my dad Hades, Greek God of the Dead doesn't want to help the gods in the war against the Titans. I helped Percy already when he bathed on the River Styx but now he asked me to convince my dad to fight on a war which he doesn't plan to. You see, us, son of Hades and our dad have a fatal flaw of holding grudges (which i did for some time with Percy) and that is why he (Hades) won't fight.So can someone help me on what should I do to convince my unwilling father to fight this war?
ReplyDeleteDear Percy( Max),
ReplyDeleteYou should try to keep your cool even if you have ADHD. Also, your fatal flaw is to be protective to friends, that's probably why you get in so much trouble. Just to tell you, some gods are annoying as you see with Ares and my dad, Hades. Then remember you are a demigod and life will always be hard. I think you'd have a problem with Ares before if you hadn't accepted his challenge but now he's your enemy so be careful. Control yourself, I know it's hard and i'm personally not really good at it but just try it out.
Your Friend,
Nicko
Percy ( Arthur),
ReplyDeleteIts your choice actually but I think its better to return to the real world and your friends. Calypso has a curse that she can't break and if you stay with her, then what will happen to the real world were your family, friends are. I for one value friendship a lot since I mostly pass my time with the dead. Calypso will be only a temporary memory, a dream. Remmember what Annabeth did for you before you left, you know her for much more time than Calypso. Also think, will you seriously abandon your friends to stay in an island, give up your friendship with Annabeth, Tyson, Grover and others? Think twice before choosing, you are the one of the prophecy after all, so, will you give up and stay or go for it?
Your friend,
Nicko
Hi, my name is Dylan Schoenfield, daughter of Alan Schoenfield, owner of Beverley hills and West Hollywood. I am the princess of L.A’s posh Castle Heights High, and besides being the richest of all, I have the cutest and also most popular boyfriend! His name is Asher; he’s a surfer and all of the girls are extremely jealous of me. My main specialty is fashion, I love to shop all the time and I also enjoy doing makeovers on people. I could consider myself a Shopaholic, because I never leave a store without buying something. OMG!! You would not believe the cutest bag I just bought! Its brown and it’s got little silver strings, and it made out of leather! It has so much space inside and it is also like my red one, that Josh, a geek, rescued when it fell into a fountain. Although, I’m rethinking the bag now. If you were me, would you go with a bag that was in the brown family, or something that was more…I don’t know…tan? Anyways, I could go on for days and that’s not my point right now. Oh, yeah, btw, rule 210 you should know about me : unless they come in shopping bags that say Fred Segal or Kitson, I’m not big on surprises. I prefer routine.
ReplyDeleteGetting back on to my life, well, the other day, I was walking n talking with my girlfriends and I suddenly swung my arm, and my red bag, that I mention before fell in a fountain! Well, then, Josh, this geek got it out for me, and in return I had to do this stupid documentary with him on popular people. I mean, seriously, could my life get any worse? So, I was forced to do it by my father, which I could not believe he agreed with doing it, where, who know, this geek may be a perverted person? Oh, and that’s not the worse part, he carries this inhaler thingy, just gross. Rule number 567: don’t carry tiny gross objects around when talking to girls, because boys are only boys are gross and they don’t mind seeing those things. Well, obviously besides my handsome boyfriend and his friends.
So, heres my problem, I dont want to do this documentary thing!! OMG! OMG! I cannot beleive it! Two seconds ago, my boyfriend just told me he was going to break up with me!! What a selfish jerk!
Now, whenever i walk down the halls, where everybody would always talk to me, everybody is ignoring me!! What on earth am i going to do to get myself to the top rank again? Will I ever get there?? UGH! I hate life sometimes!

ReplyDeleteDear Mr. Vampire,
ReplyDeleteI completely understand your problem about that you promised to only eat one of the teenagers. But since you’re a vampire, you actually don’t need to hold your promise. I mean what r they going to do, if you decide to just eat them all. And about Lacey, I think u should just eat her, and then maybe eat the others or just let them go. I believe so, because if she keeps on being rude and argues with you, you should just make her life to an end, she deserves it. If you really don’t like this solution, I have another idea for you, put the teenagers under more pressure. Like say that you will kill all of them if they don’t pick one to be murdered. If they have a hard time picking someone have them vote out one person. Have each one of them write the name of the person they would like to die on a piece of paper and you will just eat the person who gets the most votes, and either let the others go, or eat them later. Just don’t care about that promise you made!

ReplyDeleteVampire,
ReplyDeleteFirst, before I give you any advice, eating other people is just disgusting! I mean, common, give them a break. Like they could be doing other stuff like shopping and having me makeover them! Then again, since you are a ..vampire, you are facing some problems indeed. Well, if i were in desperate need of blood, I would make them face some difficult challenges. Like, make them decide on two bags! Yes, this will totally work out!Ok, so get two bags and ask them which is the prettiest, where you already know which one is better. Then, you will test their stlye in fashion and the one who is stylish, will get..eaten. Of course, why would you want to be as gorgeous as somebody else, you need to stand out.
But, then again, that might not work. So,give them a limit of time to choose the victim, and if they don't well, you can just simply eat them all. Anyways, that is rather harsh, since you did promise. Your right, also, you have to feed your fellow vampire, so, put them in challenge. Tell them: its either now, or all of you will die!
Yes, that might work, but again..gross. Good luck and dont forget fashion is what matters!

Dear Percy, (Arthur)
ReplyDeleteI think that you should go and help your friends to safe your divine family. That makes much more sense than staying with Calypso, because as I understood, you’ve only known her for a short period of time, and you never know, she might change, and you start hating her. By then it will probably be too late to go and help your friends to safe your divine family. Your old friends are always going to be your friends since you’ve known them for a long time, while Calypso is a new friend of yours, and you never know what will happen to her. Also I think that it is better if you go and save your family because then you will get famous, and everyone will like you because they will understand that you are a hero. Your friends are also going to get happy because they will understand you like them much more than anyone else. About Calypso, you shouldn’t bother, she is not going to get very mad if you leave her, but your real friends would!

ReplyDeletePercy Jackson (Arthur),
ReplyDeleteI am pretty certain that with my advice, you will be all ready to work things out in your life. As you know, I am great in relationships, ever though my boyfriend just dumped me!
Ok, so, your friend Annabeth, well she is your friend and even though the other girl, Calypso loves you and you may love her back..friends go first. So, go an fight with your friends and if you just consider Annabeth as your friend and nothing more, tell her that it may not work out. Then, if you have survived from fighting, which hopefully you will, go back to Calypso. Even though you friends might not like this, they will have to be friends and support you.
On the other hand, if you like Annabeth, tell her and then even though, when you were very ill and hurt and she helped you cure yourself, tell her that thank you for everything and that maybe you too weren't going to work out.
This may help, if not, tell me! I have been having some problems myself, that are very disappointing, but I will figure them out, as always.
Good luck,
Dylan Schnoenfield
Hello , my name is Arthur de Caldicot and I thought I was the son of Sir John , a knight vassal to Lord Jonathan, untill little time ago. I was about to become a squire and receive a land of my own, being the son of a knight, when I discovered shocking things. Yesterday, on the first day of the new century ( Year 1200), Sir John told me I am adopted! He told me that he is actually my uncle, and that my father was Sir William , his brother! So that means my brothers are actually my cousins and my cousin, Grace, who i wished to be bethroted to , is my sister. Well, actually half-sister. I had to be adopted by my uncle , Sir John, because Sir William had me outside his marriage. I hate this change in my life, for Sir William is such a temperamental and rude,gross,stupid person! I never wished he was my father! And Grace, my ´´ex-cousin´´, is actually my half-sister and so I cannot be married to her. Last but not least, the worst of all, is that Lord Jonathan was called to the crusade , and having just become his squire I must go! Ow my god , aid me in this matter of utmost importance! Now , all angels, the nine spirits of heaven and all people out there, I ask for your help. What should I do? Should I accept Sir William as my father , forget Grace and focus on the Crusade, or is there another solution to my troubles? HELP!
ReplyDeleteDear Hercules Poirot,
ReplyDeleteYour problem is interesting indeed, and you have two choices. First, you could put yourself , and people around you , in danger if you decide to investigate the murder. Second, you could mind you own business and forget about everything that ever happened , being safe but with a heavy conscience. Personally , in case any of the two people who died were important or dear to you , I would investigate. I think you should be stealthy and work alone , being carefull not to be harmed and to not endanger people around you.
Good luck,
Arthur de Caldicot
Dear Nicko,
ReplyDeleteWell, if Percy is really your friend and if the war is really importante , i believe you should convince your dad. About how to do that , you should give your dad reasons to fight in the war , such as gaining respect and admiration from the other gods in case he did well. Also , tell him how he will be harmed if the gods lose in the war and he does not help. Show him that , although he does not want to , he is invovled in the war one way or the other. Make it seem as if he will only have benefits participating in the war...
Good Luck,
Arthur de Caldicot
Hi guys, my name is Jenny Greenley and I have a problem, since every one considers me a good and trustful person, which is not bad, but the problem is: everyone gives me important things to do. An example would be on the school newspaper, at first I just had to take care of the outline, but now, since people say I’m good with giving advice, they decided that I had to be the Annie, which is the advice columnist of our newspaper. Well, I didn’t mind it that much, since I love giving advice and helping other people. But what is really bugging me is the fact that a super famous artist called Luke Striker is coming to my school so he can see how high school is like for his new movie. The teachers decided I would be the perfect guide, since they consider me trustful. The biggest problem is that I have to keep it a secret, I don’t mind keeping secrets, since no one can know I’m Annie, but the problem is , my best friend, Trina, is his biggest fan, and she says she is in love with him. I would really like to tell her, but I just fell like I would be disappointing too many people. My other problem is that Luke, or Lucas which is the fake name they gave him, wasn’t me to change, but in a good way, I guess. He said I had to make changes about how people treat Cara, which is a girl that everyone annoys and call names. He also wants me to do something about the senior prank, since Kurt, the popular guy from my school, stole Betty Ann, which is Mrs. Mulvaney doll, and she loves it a lot. Luke said that since everyone form school likes me, which I’m not so sure about, I could be the one to make a difference, should I?
ReplyDeleteDear Annabeth Chase,
ReplyDeleteI think that you should tell Percy how you fell about him, but only before you are sure weather you really like him, or it’s just a small crush, since it might ruin your friendship. Well, about Rachel, maybe Percy is just not sure about how he is feeling right now, since like you said he is going through a lot of things during his life, and you should give him some times, so he can think things though. Don’t worry about Rachel getting in your way, since you were Percy’s friend for a longer time, and he won’t forget you, don’t worry. Also, about Kronos, you and all the other demigods will make it, you just have to calm down and concentrate on what you have to do, and don’t let all your love drama get in the way. Hope it helped,
Jenny Greenley
Dear Percy Jackson (Arthur),
ReplyDeleteWell, about you problem, I think you should go with our friends, since they are risking their lives for the same reason you are risking your life. Also, when Annabeth kissed you, she was showing you how much she cares, and how much she likes you. About Calypso, if you want to chose her, then you have to be sure you like her, since you also have to think about your friendship with Annabeth, and how you can ruin it by choosing Calypso. But if you are sure you really like her and you want to choose her, you have to talk to Annabeth and explain her how you feel, and don’t forget to make sure she is fine with it, since she is your friend and you have to think about her feelings two. I hope this will help you.

Hi my name is Tyson the cyclops. I just passed trough a relly hard period right now. Firt I was a homeless kid, I was disgusting and had a really bad education from lack of school. Then there was Percy Jackson the was a good friend and helped me from being bullied afterthat we fought giants that would throw fireballs at me. Then there was Annabeth... haaaaaaaaaaaaaa Annabeth. Sorry for that. Then I discovered I was Percy´s half-brothe and had to fight monsters and go in an adventure. I almost died. What should I do? Continue and help Percy in the adventure and risk my life or and go back to normal, homeless kid?
ReplyDeleteDear Percy Jackson,
ReplyDeleteI think you shouldn´t let love break your relationship with friends because they are always there for you. Also, your friends help you a lot in your adventures fighting monsters. About Annabeth and Calypso, you need to make the decision follow your heart. I think you should save yuour divine family and save the world.
Your good friend,
Tyson
Dear Arthur de Caldicot,
ReplyDeleteI think you should focus on the crusade first and then think about familiar issues. First you need to reconquer the holy land of the muslims and jews. Then with your family, if you don´t like your new father you don´t need to accept him or visit him or even see him,and keep your uncle as your caretaker and ask him advices to deal with your problems.
Sincerly,
Tyson The Cyclops
Hi, I am Hercule Poirot and I am having a very hard time! There is this murder, which is irritating me allot. He is killing people by their names and where they live in alphabetical order. For instance: he will kill first Alice Ascher who lives in Andover. All start with the letter "A". He actually killed that woman. But the interesting and most irritating is that he always leaves a note saying where he will kill the next person, but I always arrive to late. Can somebody help me get this guy and discover whom he is?
ReplyDeleteDear Tyson,
ReplyDeleteI think you should continue helping Percy Jackson than being a homeless kid. Since you were a homeless kid and had no will to live, maybe you should try something new and maybe be successful and get famous around your city then maybe someone will know about and will want to adopt you and you will have a new and happy family. Now is your time to choose, I already gave my opinion. I hope that helped you.
Sincerely,
Hercule Poirot.
Dear Nicko Di'Angelo,
ReplyDeleteIf you agree with Percy Jackson and also wants your dad to fight on the war, then you should say to your dad things that will make him think that fighting the war will help someone or something. For example: you could say that if Hades goes, fights and win, he will be a greater God, will have more honors, and will be honored. I don’t know if this is a perfect example, but at least you understood the message, I hope so. Well, I also hoped this helped you and maybe Percy.
Sincerely,
Hercule Poirot
Before I tell you anything, let me, Lena, tell you my story. It is all about the beginning of this summer. One day, my friends and I were talking together in Carmen's room. Wait, you don't know my friends. Well, there names are Carmen, who is going to visit her father, Bridget, who is going to a soccer camp, and Tibby, who is staying home and working. Anyways, we were in her room and then we saw these pants lying there on her desk. We all tried them on and magically it fit on all of us! It was amazing, and it looked great on each one!! Then we made the Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants. We would go sending it from person to person over the vacations. We made up some rules and I got to bring them first to Greece, which is where my grandparents live. We all left sadly, but happy to have the magical pants traveling with us. As soon as I arrived to Greece, my grandmother had a party for me, as a “Welcome to Greece”. I put on the pants and headed downstairs, but them my grandma told me I had to change. I was mad because no magic would work, but it was okay. My grandmother introduced me to a man, named Kostos who supposedly is a "nice man." My grandma wanted me to fall in love with him, but I didn't want to get into a relationship. Never mind that. One day, I went to go paint at a lake, which I thought was all to my self and it was "my" place. It was too hot that I want to go in the water, and once I was in, I heard a noise in the bushes. There, I saw Kostos and he was looking right at me. I got so mad because he had followed me the hole way. Well, that is what it looked like. I ran home and I told my grandmother:
ReplyDelete" Kostos is not a nice boy." My grandmother misunderstood me and thought that Kostos had done something to me that was bad. She told my grandfather and Kostos grandfather got into a fight with mine. They started punching each other, but thankfully stopped. I don't know what to do!!! They think something worse happened when it really didn't. Kostos liked me when I first arrived, and now.... he hates me.... I suppose. Please, anyone out there in the world. Tell me what to do!! I can't think of a reason for me to not talk to him, but I am not brave. I have passed down the pants to my friend, and I had a failing start. I can't let my sisters down, and I need to change things here. Help me! AND, I think I am starting to fall in love with him, but I have no courage to tell him. Some may say I am shy, but I need your help, no matter from what. I would never do this, but the mail here takes too long to write to my friends and ask them for help. They are busy with there own adventures. So, I am in a huge problem, and I need your help. Please...
Dear Tyson,
ReplyDeleteI know this is my perspective from a girl, but it might help. My name is Lena by the way. Well, first of all, what would you do if you were already born as the brother of Percy Jackson? It is your brother for crying out loud. He helped you in becoming better educated, why don't you help him, even if it were to risk your life. I would totally do that, but its not my case. Go and tell you brother how you feel. Tell him that you are not sure if you should help him or not. Maybe even ask him if he truly needs help, which I garanette he does. At the begining, when you were a homeless kid, did you need help? How would anyone want to help a kid like you? He did. No matter what he thought of you, he did go and help you. Now it is your turn to say thank you, not only by words, but by an action and risk your life for him. He changed your life, now you change him. So, I would go on the adventure, even though you could get killed, but he is your brother and he "saved your life." Again, I know I am a girl, but I hope this is the right advice. I need your help on my problem. I already wrote it in, but your a boy. Doesn't matter. Hope you take my advice.
Okay, slow down, Dylan....
ReplyDeleteYou are seriously exaggerating. No offense. Why can't you do the documentary with the guy? Its not like he is mean. Rule one for me: Never judge a person by how they look. Common! Just because he carries a little object with him does not mean he is a bad person. Rule number two: Geeks do not equal gross. Give him a chance. Do the document with him and don't waste that opportunity. I wouldn't have had my dad to force me to do it, I would have just said yes straight away and did it. Next, why do you have to be in social top class? I am not even in the middle!! Everything does not have to be perfect!!! And you ex-boyfriend was probably the typical show of, popular guy. Don't get mad at him, probably you were the one who spoiled it all.. no offense again. Rule number three: If a guy does not like you, he will ignore you. Like I like this guy named Kostos, and apparently he hates me back after what happened and just ignores me. Rule number four: Don't be a show off. Okay, yes I am sorry for all the insolent thing I said, but face it, you have to move on and do the promises you said you would do. Rule number five: don't lie. All I am saying is that you should forget about your boyfriend and give the geek guy a chance and help him out with his documentary. Isn't you purse so precious? He "saved" you purse, so help him. And being shopaholic... how ever you spell it, it pretty weird. It would be best if you stayed in middle or even lower class and actually have true moral friends, and maybe have a munificent, caring, geek boyfriend. Who knows? I am just trying to help. Read my story and I would really like to see your perspective, which might be really different from other, but I would like to give you a chance to help me..hahah... sorry. Hope you take my advice.
Lena
Hey, my name is Claire Lions, and I'm facing some problems. Since I moved here with my family, I have had some trouble making new friends. I only have Laine, who is really cool, don't get me wrong, but I can't deny my desire to be popular and have tons of friends. I mean, everybody loves Massie and her friends, most referred to as the Pretty Committee. I would just like to be a part of it, so I could see what it is like to be adored by everyone. If Massie or her friends do anything wrong or stupid, wrong and stupid becomes the new right and cool! But, if me or any "losers" do anything, it's just pathetic! I've tried to get over this obsession and wish to be popular, but everytime I spot Massie, I just can't help and want to be her! That's what I don't get; are they adored just because they are rich and wear cool clothes? Help me! I need advice on how to get more friends!
ReplyDeleteHey, my name is Ares. I am the god of war. Ever heard of me? Yeah, that's what I thought. Anyways, I hate to ask some stupid little humans for advice, but I guess in the situation that I'm in, it's absolutely necessary. So, you think that as the god of war, I'd pretty much be indestructible and invincible, right? Wrong. The other day I was fighting this little punk named Percy Jackson. He thinks he's hot stuff because he's the son of Poseidon, one of the big three. In case you do not know who the big three are, they're Zeus, Hades and Poseidon. Anyways, me and Percy were fighting, and suddenly he called on some huge wave to come and crash down on me. He then proceeded to stab me in the ankle, making my precious ichor spill out from his body. He must have some sort of special sword or something. So, I need a way that I can kill him. He is unusually cocky, he must have some nerve to challenge a god, and finally, he must be extremely powerful as the little idiot had enough wits and skill to beat me. I think that a few of these traits could be used to my advantage, as sometimes one's strengths can lead to his or her demise. Any advice would be hugely appreciated, though I doubt any of you people could assist me in any way whatsoever.
ReplyDeleteDear Hercule, (Ricardo)
ReplyDeleteIt seems to me that there is a pretty easy solution to this problem. I think that if you didn't have such a pea-sized human brain you would easily figure out that you should completely ignore the notes. They are only leading to your downfall as you are a human and you can't teleport like me. So, what you need to do is instead of going by the notes, you need to go by the pattern, get it? If you know who he will strike because of a pattern, why not skip one person and get a step ahead of him? What's one human to die for the sake of others? Of course, I don't really care. I might as well be on the side of the murderer, as you humans sicken me so.
Dear Margaret Rose Kane,
ReplyDeleteI can see how much you really care about the towers, and how much sentimental feelings you have for them. I think you should try and telling them people who want to get rid of them the importance they have to you, and maybe, if they can relate, they might try to change things. However, if that doesn't work, you should try telling other people the story behind these important towers, and maybe try to get a petition signed. If enough people sign it, you will most likely be able to use that as a document, so that they are legally prohibited to demolish them! I hope this was helpful, and hopefully, these ideas will work, and you will be able to keep your towers!
Claire.
Dear Claie (Maria)
ReplyDeleteHere's what you do. The thing about humans is that they are like dogs. They will misbehave until you show them that you are dominant and that you are able to crush them with just a thought. This is what that girl is doing to you, and you really just shouldn't take it. For all I care, she could be smacking you in the face in front of everyone and then making you eat dirt. What you truly need to do is retaliate. Forget what your idiotic teachers say about self-discipline and morality. You need to go up to her and say: "I am superior to you in every way, and if you don't like it, then you can get out of this school!" and then you need to smack her across her face in front of everybody. This way everyone will realize that the popular girl crying on the floor is just a poor weakling who nobody should ever care about. Follow my advice and you will in fact succeed in life.
Trust me, I'm a god.
-Ares
Dear John Colan,
ReplyDeleteI think I might have a very helpful solution to your problem. What you did was very irresponsible, and Mr.Pignati must be very disappointed. However, to try and make up for the mess in his house, it would be a good idea if you and Lorraine went up to his house, and not just call him, to show that you really care, and that you're worried about him, and volunteer to help. (only if you really mean it, of course) Then, you should clean up his house with Lorraine, until everything is exactly as it was before. Mr.Pignati trusted you, and it's not hard to recover someone's trust after you let them down, trust me. Well, I hope this advice was helpful, and I wish you luck!
Claire.
Hello. I am Lorraine Jensen and I am a fifteen-year-old shophomore from Franklin High School. I really do not think I should be talking to strangers about my personal problems, since you may be a stalker or a serial killer of some sort... but my only friend, John Colan, is in as much trouble as me, so I can't ask him for any advice! Some time ago, John and I met Mr. Pignati while we were prank calling people. We pretended to be charity workers and asked him for $10. When we went over his house to get the money, we discovered he was a very lonely man in his fifties. As you might imagine, the three of us became great friends over time. One day, the Pigman (as we call Mr. Pignati), John, and I were roller skating all over the Pigman's house. While he was trying to catch John up the stairs, since we were playing tag, Mr. Pignati had a heart attack! The ambulance came and thankfully he made it to the hospital. Later, he said John and I could have the key to his house while he was recovering. John had the "brilliant" idea of throwing a party since our old friend wasn't home. I told him we could not do that, but he did not give a crap to what I was saying. Unfortunately, Mr. Pignati returned in the middle the party and was extremely disappointed. The next day, John and I offered to clean up our mess and apoligized. We also invited him to the zoo to visit his dearest baboon friend, Bobo. You will not believe what I am about to say since it is too much bad luck: Bobo was dead! The Pigman, my dear friend, had a second heart attack, but this time he did not survive! Oh my Gosh, how could John and I be so immature and ignorant?! I really need your advice, whoever you are. Do you think it was my fault? John's fault? Oh my... how can I move on with my life?
ReplyDeleteSincerely,
Lorraine Jensen.
Dear Claire Lyons (Maria Clara),
ReplyDeleteI know exactly what you are going through. It is called peer pressure and insecurity. Although I am not a very confident or secure person, I know what you have to do to stop suffering. When I arrived at Franklin High School, during my freshman year, I was depressed and it was as if I was being tortured. I did not have one single friend and felt like a complete outcast. I watched as the popular girls humiliated me and did not do anything about it, because deep inside I admired them. I decided I would ignore those preppy queen-bees and stop being a wanna-bee. It is hard not to want to be popular, but if you really try, you will be able to. I assumed I was not a bit popular and I knew deep inside I did not want to be like those... you know what. Meeting John Colan really made me a happier person. You will stop dreaming about the Pretty Committee as soon as you find a real friend. Try making new friendships with people that share interests or that live in your neighborhood. Follow my advice. If you find a good friend, who will eventually become your best friend, you will become much happier and confident!
Sincerely,
Lorraine Jensen.
Dear Arthur de Caldicot (Gabriel),
ReplyDeleteWow, you are in serious trouble! I feel so sorry for you... but now it is not time to have compassion, Lorraine! In my opinion, although I am never so outgoing and brave, you should run away from this village of yours and take your beloved Grace with you. I know it sounds crazy, but if you go to the Crusades you will probably never come back! You could accept the fact that you are the son of a gross jerk, that you cannot marry the woman you love, and that you have to leave for the Crusades, but that would be stupid! Run away from your village with Grace, during the middle of the night, and go as far as your horse can take you. When you arrive to some decent place, say you are a wealthy Lord and that the King demands you are given shelter and food. If they do not believe you, threaten them with your sword. I hope you do not have to do that, after all, it is illegal, but good luck. I hope you can escape this terrible destiny you are about to face with the my wise advice. God bless you, young squire, and do not give up on Grace!
Sincerely,
Lorraine Jensen.
Hi, I my name is Kristen McKenna, and I am facing a problem: my family is going to be torn apart! And I need to do something about that! It's because of a family secret my mother found out recentally. And, now my mom and dad are not talking to each other! They don't even pay attention to us like before! Once, my little sister Kippy, and I even tried a little experiment to see if our parents were paying attention to us, here's what we did: I said Brad Pitt had invited me to a slumber party and guess what my mom said? She said that you already had your snack. Can you believe it! The experiment started out as a joke, to make her laugh, but in the end,it wasn't. So, as you can see, our parents don't even pay attention to us! And whenever they want to talk to each other, they ask us to tell what they said. To make matters worse, during the summer my best friend Rory left for Summer Camp, and my only other friend in the whole world, Nellie moved away. Now the only thing that was left to happen was my parents to start fighting like crazy! Not! Can someone please offer me some advice?

ReplyDeleteDear Tyson, (Paul)
ReplyDeleteIn my opinion, I think you should continue to assist Percy, because you should be loyal to friends. Also, you mentioned that Percy saved you from being bullied right? So, why not pay him back, by assisting him throughout the journey's/adventures which Percy has? That is what I think, because he saved you, and now no matter what you should stay by his side through every adventure he has Ok? Because he is probably the only trustable friend you might have. And don;t be afraid of being killed in a fight, because what happened before won't happen again! And Percy will help you again in another fight you might have.

Dear Aurelia, ( Natasha)
ReplyDeleteI think you should try to convince your father to stop him from trying to take away Boots, your tiger away. You should convince him not to give that tiger away, to be killed at a game. You should convince him that you love him the most, and you would do anything to stop him! And also, try to ask him why he prefers the gladiators rather than what his OWN daughter thinks! And also ask him why he prefers the gladiators if they kill animals for fun!!!!
