that scene in tlo where thalia tells percy he can't start feeling sorry for luke bc luke made his choices. and thalia reveals that the reason they couldn't make it to camp in time for all of them to make it to camp was bc luke kept picking fights. and annabeth never saw this as wrong bc luke was her hero. so thalia had to pick up the pieces. and percy thinking both that luke was put in a cruel position and that luke was putting others in a cruel position. and percy is the only character who understood both sides of luke bc annabeth sees only the best of him and thalia sees only the worst. and that's why percy is the prophecy kid and the one who gives luke the knife. bc annabeth had spent the entire series essentially giving luke the knife when he didn't deserve it. and thalia was never going to give luke the knife. but percy is the only one who can see exactly when luke deserves the knife.
the bond between a girl and their favorite fictional man is both an unstoppable force and an immovable object
Percy Jackson but Hestia has a cabin. that is where the unclaimed go because she goddess of home and family. Demigods get claimed faster because when they show up Hestia glares at her siblings, nieces and nephews untill they claim them.
no bc putting sally just chilling out in the storm when percy came home from school, bc she fell in love with the stormbringer god. it was just a really especial detail and a little wink for the real greek myth nerds. well done guys
No but Nico is going to be down BAD in S3. This really cool kid saves him and his sister from a monster?? And he’s kinda cute?? AND he’s into the same card game that Nico is obsessed with?? And this girl he seems really close to just fell off a cliff?? So he asks if she was his girlfriend and he says no?? He’s going to have a field day
pjo tv show please canonize clarisse/silena bc their patrochilles parallels are the underrated best part of book 5 i am begging you i dont care if its a KYG
Annabeth running the Athena cabin is actually one of the most realistic things about CHB to me because autistic 12 year old girls are another fucking breed. At 12 years old I would wake myself up at 5:50 before making myself a healthy smoothie and scrambled eggs and then leaving for school at 6:50 to be over an hour early and go straight to the library. Can you imagine if I’d had another six kids under my command? No wonder they’re winning Capture the Flag so much.
IF WE DONT GET A NICO AND BIANCA CAMEO AT THE LOTUS HOTEL IM GOING NUTS
my mistake is that i thought everyone would remember me as i remembered them
i tried to make a digital journal, but i can’t i need a physical notebook. I need to feel the pages with my fingers, i need the smell and i need the sacred feeling of writing in a blank sheet of paper
I love you emotionally closed off/distant/reserved characters who are SO full of feelings and love but have trouble expressing it or just dont want to, I love you you are everything to me
its baffling seeing people on here being all shocked about how other ppl didnt have sex or do drugs or drink or go to parties etc etc in high schools like. sorry i was too busy getting bullied to do all of that stuff i guess. why are you surprised that there’s losers on the cringe loser website
im on my third day strike of binging.
I want to hurt myself
Marguerite Duras, from The Lover
Text ID: I think I'm beginning to see my life. I think I can already say, I have a vague desire to die. From now on I treat that word and my life inseparable.
— November 20, 1913 / Franz Kafka diaries
literally though if you feel like your life is slipping through your fingers and every day goes too fast… try doing hard things, not just taking the easy route, like reading and making art and exercising and cooking a meal from scratch and journaling, doing these things without distraction, without being absorbed on a screen… the time will stretch and you’ll be reminded that life is long and beautiful if you make it so.
Oh my fucking god I forgot to stay silly
ok so how do you continue a conversation after saying hello
sometimes im fine and the my dad arrives, tells me something that’ll hunt me for life and leaves. He won’t remember anything in an hour.
i’ve been alone most of my life and still have the speaking skills of a 13 year old
“It’s not ‘natural’ to speak well, eloquently, in an interesting articulate way. People living in groups, families, communes say little–have few verbal means. Eloquence–thinking in words–is a byproduct of solitude, deracination, a heightened painful individuality.”
— Susan Sontag, As Consciousness Is Harnessed to Flesh (via the-book-diaries)
Virginia Woolf, from a letter to Violet Dickinson written c. June 1907
"there are only two sexes, it's literally third grade biology!" and pronouns are taught in kindergarten and you dont seem to understand those either
Part of getting older is realizing how absolutely insane it is that basically every form of media is constantly trying to convince us that the most interesting moments of the lived human experience are happening in HIGH SCHOOL…… girl who gives a flying fuck what 16 year olds are doing.
LIFE HACK: if you call things beautiful then they become so . Immediately in front of your eyes
i think we as a society need to start accepting that fictional love stories need to be a bit toxic for us to go insane over them… like, sometimes you kinda need the two parties to be obsessed with each other and fucked up and willing to bring each other back from the dead instead of moving on and go to therapy i’m sorry😔
if i ever get my first kiss, i want ti be as you all describe it. As poetry talks about it :(
sometimes you listen to an orchestra and you’re like maybe the magic i stopped believing in when i was eleven does exist in some form
