always an angel never a god.
imagine 7 year old annabeth becoming a child soldier and seeing her big sister die and thinking it was her fault. 14 year old luke seeing his younger sister sacrifice her life for his and annabeth’s and getting so angry at the gods, especially zeus for turning his daughter into a tree and hermes abandoning him and his mother when he could have easily helped. percy dragging his unconscious best friend up a hill then seeing his mother ‘die’ after being abused by gabe for so long and then becoming a soldier and basically a water boy for the gods. silena after finding out her boyfriend died and that its all her fault because shes helping luke, the traitor of camp. clarisse getting verbally abused by her father because shes a girl then seeing her crush die in her arms because she wouldnt help. jason after being abandoned by his mother at two and being raised by wolves then having his memory taken away and dying before he got to say goodbye to his best friend. piper after being sent away to a wilderness camp when all she wants is attention from her dad and then he gets kidnapped and almost killed. leo after gaea kills his mom and he has to run away from all of his foster homes. frank after his mom died in war and before he hoes to her funeral he finds out the only thing keeping him alive is a piece of firewood and his father is a god. hazel after dying and spending over 70 years in asphodel before her brother finds her and brings her back from the dead. nico after he realizes he’s gay but he’s in 1920 italy, his mother dies, gets his memories wiped, he’s dumped at the lotus casino, he gets out a goes to a military school, he develops a crush on percy, finds out he’s a demigod, his sister abandons him, he finds out his sister died and his crush tells him, he tries to hate him but he cant because it was his fault that his sister died, finds out his sister chose rebirth, finds out he has another sister and brings her back from the dead, goes back and forth from cj and chb because he doesnt belong, goes to tartarus willingly, gets trapped in a jar for 8(?) days, watches his crush and his crush’s girlfriend fall into tartarus, then not preventing an accidental su!c!de, then watching his best friend die.
always an angel never a god.
as far as everyone was concerned. percy had a year left to live in tbotl. and i know that we didn't see what that like for him because it didn't matter plot-wise. but i would have loved to read it. give me percy who is hardly speaking up at the dinner table. half-asleep and behind on last week's homework. give me percy who is clearly losing the will to live and trudging around the apartment like he doesn't care where his feet takes him. give me percy who is sneaking out of the house and visiting montauk. sitting along the beachside shore. wondering why his only purpose in life is that of a soldier and not of a kid.
IM GONNA CRY
Do you guys ever think,
when Percy dies, Grover will die at the same time. But unlike the others, they'll never be reunited in Elysium because Grover's a satyr who never get into Elysium, they turn into a tree.
And, if Annabeth is outlives Percy, she won't just grieve the love of her life but one of her best friends as well, one of the first people who believed in her, outside of luke and thalia.
One more thing, When Percy dies at least Annabeth will know she gets to see him again in Elysium but she'll also have to live with the knowledge that she'll never see Grover again even in death.
And if you don't want to think abt this, then:
Then don't think about her throwing away the collection of tin cans she and Percy probably kept for Grover.
Don't think about her using something from a tin can and thinking "I'll save this for Grover" and then realizing she'll never get to give it to him.
Don't think about her never being able to eat blue food or enchiladas again.
Don't think about her and Juniper holding each other and crying.
Don't think about Juniper momentarily hating Annabeth for getting to see her husband after she dies before forgetting all about her anger because they both lost their loves, damn it!
Don't think about Annabeth "Always Six Foot Ahead" Chase knowing death is approaching and making a list of what she wants to be burnt with so that she can give them to everyone who she has ever cared about. Adding "Tin Cans and Enchiladas" in the list before breaking down again.
Don't think abt Percy reaching Elysium, being greeted by all of his friends, looking around for grover before registering why he wasn't there.
Don't think about him mourning his best friend, his brother even when in Eternal Paradise.
Don't think about it.
make his hair longer I BEG YOU PLEASE 🙏
sorting out my percy design

For those asking why I punched an alien official. He looked punchable. I totally was not hearing them shit talking the BOM behind our backs. That totally did not happen. Totally.

There's... There's another cat in the manor? When did we get another one?
ME TOO
Ice takes up way too much space in drinks. I prefer more drink than ice, thank you. I find myself annoyed whenever the ice hits my lip too, at this point no ice please. I think I just hate ice?

im listening to the ithaca saga again and whenever i get to the part of the song odyseuss where he goes “no” i keep imagining viktor from arcane saying “no” like he did when him and jayce were at the bridge and the whole “the undercity is dangerous!” “im from the undercity” thing happens
Btw Israel let Palestinians celebrate not one (1) holiday in peace. They didn’t grant Christian Palestinians access to Jerusalem on Palm Sunday, they actively attacked families who were already starving at Iftar during Ramadan, and now there are several reports of families being killed on Eid al-Fitr—a sacred multi-day holiday practiced by lots of Arabs. It breaks my heart imagining the Palestinian families in Gaza right now, most of whom are spending Eid mourning loved ones who were taken by Israeli strikes. Most of us will never understand the sheer magnitude of that pain.
and i mean this in the nicest way possible
thinking about… jason grace leaving his glasses on while he fucks you, claiming it’s to “see every inch of you”. and he so keeps that statement, trailing his sky blue eyes down ever single centimeter of your bare skin, sending shivers down your spine as he does so. you would die like this, you’d let him kill you just so this would be your last sight. and additionally with the way every once in a while his fingers would spark, even better if their plugged inside you, sending a literal shock wave through your senses…
fair enough
My love life is dead like Jason.

zeus:
