"Thoughts On Women?" Yeah Pretty Much Constantly

Leo Valdez being a good cook means EVERYTHING to me. Like, this guy has been practically on his own since he was a kid; of course he’d have survival skills like cooking. One of my favorite small scenes in The Lost Hero is when he made the tacos for Piper and Jason because it really is such a great way for him to show his love and support for his friends despite everything else going on. I just keep imagining Leo noticing his friends are stressed and dropping off gifts of food without even acknowledging it. Imagine Annabeth coming back to her cabin after an awful day of searching for Percy only to find her favorite food sitting on her bunk in a container or Jason being silently handed a wrapped homemade meal after spending the day helping Leo on the Argo II. I just need other people to see and understand my vision here.

After years of waiting, nothing came.

“The Good Still Finds Me”

I used to think healing meant feeling nothing—

no ache, no fear,

just clean slates and steady hands.

But healing, I’ve learned,

isn’t quiet.

It’s crying in the shower

and still showing up.

It’s being afraid

and doing it anyway.

It’s doubting yourself

and choosing to try again.

Sometimes,

it’s laughing so hard you forget

why you were hurting.

Other times,

it’s getting through the day

and calling that enough.

I still stumble.

I still carry the weight.

But life keeps showing up

in little ways—

a stranger’s kindness,

a song I forgot I loved,

sunlight that lands on me

like it meant to.

I used to search for signs

that things would fall apart.

Now I look for proof

that I’m still becoming.

And I find it—

in my softness,

in my strength,

in how I keep going

even when it’s hard.

No, I’m not fully healed.

But I’ve stopped calling myself broken.

The good still finds me.

And this time—

I let it stay.
