i think a lot about how patrick and tashi’s fight was something that seemed big in the moment but really wasn’t, however it was enough to make both art and tashi leave him behind in the scale of their lives.
he was her boyfriend, he didn’t cheat, didn’t lie, he was there and she was talking about tennis instead of being intimate and it was her overreaction to his request that brought on the fight. so she didn’t bring her a-game to the game that caused the injury and she blamed him? and that was enough for his best friend of soooo many years to dump him too?
art and patrick, with a great history, friends since they were twelve not keeping in contact after one little fight that didn’t even involve him? patrick zweig, who wore the same shirt when he was at that hotel the first time tashi cheated. he missed her, it wasn’t out of the box that he missed her, she left him over some stupid fight and misplaced blame. patrick zweig who was finally committing to a girl having all of that AND his best friend leave him? over the pettiest little fight.
in this movie nobody is innocent. that’s a fact. not one of the three is without fault. but we can agree that they all have their innocences and things they did not deserve. patrick lost his girlfriend and his best friend in a fowl swoop to EACH OTHER. i think that’s a little devastating.
i think about this picture every day
whoever styled him this day: thank you. white tank, nips hard, biceps OUT, hair perfect, bisexual swag. good golly!
he gives off 5’6 energy
Mike Faist always gave me short king energy
for some reason it seems like he's so much shorter than josh like it's kind of baffling

I like to think about Camp Half Blood and how its probably full of old hidden kid structures
It's an ancient sacred valley, that has trained and housed children for thousands of years, many of those kids coming from artisan backgrounds and gods. Kids build things, kids make forts and rope swings and tree houses. Kids need hidy holes and pretend play boxes and secrets.
I like to think about walking in the CHB woods, off the trail in a place you think dryads have only ever been to. And then you come to this tree with wooden planks nailed to it. You look up into this old oak and above you is a few more boards, just enough to make good seating hidden in the branches. There are initials carved in the bark, no one you recognize, and doodles on the boards. You don't know who built it or when, was it put up last year or fifty years ago, but someone dragged 2x4s miles and miles through the trees and made a place just for them. Your reminded that this place has always been here, that so many half-bloods have come and gone, but all throughout the valley there are still echoes of them
‘I was here’ says the little jerry-rigged bridge over the creek, ‘I mattered’ says the rope swing into the lake, ‘Even if I'm forgotten’ says the crumbling fort in the woods, ‘I left something behind’ says the initials in the tree
