Not Now Kitten, Daddy Wants To Kill Herself Painfully And Slowly

first chapters out!!!! i dunno if its ooc cause I made my friend who does NOTTTT watch hermitcraft or the life series read it over

Its hard to believe im the only Jdfgamer fan on tumblr

Because im not, they just dont know what to post about him

okay i know i said joel should be the charioteer but im lowkey rethinking, i feel like he could be a black hole. Simply because Joel represents the core of humanity; resillence and love and a black hole sometimes symbolize the unknown and the human expierence. Theyre also incredibly destructive (just like joel) and bright (just like joel, hes so loud you can probs hear him from a mile away) idk im still high and lowkey bout to pass out

I think it'd be fun to do some kind of Life Series AU where they're ALL enhanced individuals (superpowers) but are afraid of telling anyone due to stigma. Then the plot would be everyone slowly realizing other people have powers too until it clicks that everyone has them.

But that's not the fun part. The fun part is I think Joel's "superpower" is that when he looks at someone, they are unable to use their abilities. But he doesn't know that. So there's an unbelievable amount of hijinks around people trying to prove to him they have superpowers while he continues to call them delusional.

DEAR EDUCATIONALLY NEGLECTED HOMESCHOOLERS

I’ve gathered some resources and tips and tricks on self-educating after educational neglect. This is only what I did and what I know helped me. I’m about to graduate college with honors after having no education past the age of 9. I wouldn’t be here without the following. Everything is free, and at/well above the standard for education in the US.

The holy grail: Khan Academy. Nearly every course you could take is available here, in order and by grade level. Their open-source free courses rival some of the college classes I’ve taken. This is your most solid resource.

For inattentive types: Crash Course offers a variety of courses that are snappy, entertaining, and extremely rewarding. They work for my ADHD brain. They also have college prep advice, which is essential if you’re looking to go to higher education with no classroom experience.

To catch up on your reading: There are certain books that you may have read had you gone to school that you’ve missed out on. This list is the most well-rounded and can fill you in on both children’s books and classic novels that are essential or at least extremely helpful to be familiar with. You can find a majority of these easily at a local library (and some for free in PDF form online low key). There are a few higher level classics in here that I’d highly recommend. If it doesn’t work for you, I’d always recommend asking your local librarian.

*BE AWARE* The book list I recommend suggests you read Harry Potter books, and given their transphobic author you may or may not want to read them. If you choose to, I’d highly recommend buying the books secondhand or borrowing from a library to avoid financially supporting a living author with dangerous and damaging views.

TEST, TEST, TEST: Again, Khan Academy is your go-to for this. I don’t personally like standardized testing, but going through SAT and ACT courses was the best way I found to really reveal my gaps so that I could supplement.

Finally: As much as you can, enjoy the process. Education can be thrilling and teach you so much about yourself, and help shape your view of the world. It can get frustrating, but I’d like to encourage you that everyone can learn. No pace is the perfect pace, and your learning style is the right learning style for you. In teaching yourself, be patient, be kind, and indulge in the subjects you really enjoy without neglecting others. You are your teacher. Give yourself what others chose not to.

100 Books to Read Before You Die

It's morbid, but have you ever wondered what books to read before you die? Start with this list of 100 must-read books.

this but i like to think its victoria due to the fact that he literally changes the tide of the war in all 3 series, not single handed but still he was the mvp of all 3. I might be wrong but oh well

Nico is a Roman legacy

I’ve mentioned this before, but never made an actual post about it. But think about it:

He was able to trick an entire camp of Romans that he was one of them for almost a year

Terminus allowed him into the city without any trouble, even though he had initially refused to let Annabeth, Piper and Leo into the city for being Greek

You could say that applies to Percy as well, but Percy has no memories. He believed he was Roman, and the whole gods thing only works because of belief. If no one believes in the gods, they disappear, like Pan did

Also, he was allowed in because of Hera. Even without the belief thing, his queen had just ordered for Percy to be allowed to stay in New Rome

Nico knew he was Greek, he didn’t believe that he was Roman. But Terminus gave him no trouble about getting into New Rome

The only way that should work is if he is Roman. He’s a son of Hades, but he most likely is a Roman legacy

Plus, he’s Italian, which is ‘a slave of Rome’ (it’s a line in their national anthem). Italy is the closest to Rome that exists in the world. Why wouldn’t the Roman gods travel there all the time?

They can manifest in places where their domain runs high, so Italy should be a breeding ground for Roman gods and goddesses, right?

The Roman in him would have to be relatively close to when he was born (ie grandparent or great-grandparent). If not, the Roman would be so slim that Terminus wouldn’t have let him in so easily

I really like the idea of Nico being super close with his grandparents, so I’m going to say it was a great-grandparent for that reason. I don’t have any actual ideas on that, or reasoning other than I like Nico having a good relationship with his nonno and nonna

Now, who is he a legacy of?

I have a few ideas

Bacchus

Somnus

Venus

Achelois

Bacchus because Mr D didn’t punish him for calling him ‘wine dude’ and starting that whole thing. Plus, I like Mr D and Nico as family, and it would help support my trans!nico Headcanon for how Maria accepted him

Somnus is the Roman form of Hypnos, if you didn’t know. This is because of how much energy is drained from Nico using his powers, when it doesn’t really affect anyone else. Also, he can travel through his dreams and sleep for days on end, which seems a little like Clovis to me

Venus because I love Aphrodite Nico. Plus, he seems to be able to calm people down and talk them into doing things a lot (getting an Achilles Heel, promising to protect his sister, letting him shadow travel the Athena Parthenos to America, etc)

And Achelois is a minor moon goddess, which would explain why Nico and Bianca both got along with Artemis so well from the get go. Like, he hates the hunters, but he seems to not be able to hate Artemis. Also, in pjo she hates men a lot, but she seems to like Nico. Him being a descendant of a moon goddess would explain that

Thank you, and I hope you enjoyed this! Which god do you think Nico is a legacy of? I really like Bacchus or Somnus, but what are your opinions?
