But seriously though, Riordan could have done much better with a Child of Aphrodite, she might as well not be in the story

So tell me then...

What other God would the ability to use manipulaton make sense then?

EXACTLY! She's a complete Mary Sue (Even has all the obvious markers of a Mary Sue! Drew is one of them!)

Empty term honestly...

Seriously, I do like Piper and I can see where the concerns are...but Piper doesn't fit any hall-marks of a 'Mary Sue'.

I would have loved it if a character like Drew was in Piper's place, it'd be refreshing from all these characters that start of with "no real flaws" to have so many (like, pride, vanity and essential "Drewness") that would give her so so much room to grow as a character, now, most of her chapters are about how she loves Jason and what she see's in her special knife (A child of Apollo could've done that).

I understand in this series, with so many main characters, some have to be a bit, 2D, but it's just so annoying to have her there.

Exactly! Especially when all these great characters love her even though the only though passing her mind is only Jason.

It's not the only thought, but it's a pretty damn big chunk

Yeah, it's like "I had this random sweet conversation with a random character that made them love me more, but oh LOOK! HERE'S JASON! I'M SO LUCKY. HE'S GORGEOUS. WE'RE IN LOVE!"

It does get annoying
