Who else here have confidence issues b/c of a YA book series?
>throughout middle school read whole Percy Jackson and the Olympians series at least 5 times
>mc Percy Jackson has confidence issues
>think Percy Jackson is coolest guy ever though
>he also gets blonde tsundere qt3.14 gf by end of series
>pretend in my head I'm actually the son of an Olympian God too, and that soon I'd end up having adventures over the summer with my goofy best friend (didn't actually have any friends at that time though) and qt3.14 tsundere friend to save the world
>base entire personality ( and appearance to a degree) off of Percy Jackson except I'm super shy so I'm way less outgoing and not able to make corny jokes like him without people looking at me weirdly
>For a while didn't even want to grow that much b/c Percy wasn't that tall
>do this from 5th grade into early sophomore year of high school
>told no one else though cause I'm not that retarded
>tfw confidence issues are for real now and not me trying to be like Percy
>tfw only got out of my obsession of Percy Jackson by becoming obsessed with Anime (keep powerlevel hidden though b/c not retarded)
>tfw you will never adventure across the country with your goofy best friend and qt3.14 tomboy friend
> tfw you will never slowly fall love with Annabeth slowly over the course of puberty, from meeting her for the first time after you defeated the Minotaur when your 12 to defeating Kronos at the Battle of Manhattan when your 16
> tfw don't become hardened, confident hero after defeating the Titans
>tfw Heroes of Olympus series (the sequel series to Percy Jackson and the Olympians) was shit
