 * Tribes Discussion **

[|**Reggie.Gomas**] Nov 23, 2011 2:02 pm Percy is a 17 to 18 year old teenager that thinks and acts differently comparing to regular teenagers. He has a friend named Elissa and a mother that has an interesting occupation. As of now I see him as a very interesting character. [|**Reggie.Gomas**] Nov 23, 2011 1:42 pm By reading the three descriptions before choosing a book to read, I thought that it would be an interesting story out of the three books. Seeing the size of the book, it might be easy to follow and understand. [|**Reggie.Gomas**] Nov 29, 2011 1:21 pm I think it's some culture thing that releases the pain. I can tell he's been stress by the situations he's been facing. [|**Reggie.Gomas**] Nov 29, 2011 1:29 pm I think what affected me is that Percy is going to graduate and he's spending his last days by going to parties and events that he's never been able to go to for his past years in high school. By the way he acts, he's not a person who would go out and have a good time. This makes me think about myself. Since I'm graduating too, I think about if I've had a satisfying high school life and makes me sad knowing I have to be more responsible and moving on to another stage of my life. I’m thinking Percy is taking a chance to do something different before his last year of high school come to an end. [|**Reggie.Gomas**] Dec 12, 2011 1:33 pm Elissa is Percy's only best friend after Will died. She's one of the people that is important to Percy. She cares for him and supports him through whatever situation he is in. Because of Elissa, Percy would have no one to talk to about his problems, observations or just someone to talk to. Mr.Verplaz is the guidance counselor in his high school. He helps Percy of the problems he might be facing and is willing to help him by asking questions to seek for a solution. But I think Elissa is helpful comparing to Mr.Verplz because of the bond and trust Percy and Elissa both have. <span style="color: #404040; font-family: 'Arial','sans-serif'; font-size: 15px;">[|**Reggie.Gomas**] <span style="color: #666666; font-family: 'Arial','sans-serif'; font-size: 12px;">Dec 6, 2011 1:39 pm <span style="color: #404040; font-family: 'Arial','sans-serif'; font-size: 15px;">She's very attracted to Percy by reading what she does to him, so if she keeps this up, then the more Percy might develop feelings for her.
