Hello,
How do you do ? I hope to be in a good condition.
This is my special campaign
We hope to help us by donating or sharing to others.
Every donation makes a different even if it a small.
As you know, the war began on October 7 and lasted ten months. During this period, we were unable to obtain food, drink, or treatment because we did not have money.
There is no source of income for the family at the present time, so we are unable to buy food, clean water, and medicine, especially after we are afflicted with the ongoing infectious diseases spread in the north like Hepatitis C disease.
Our house has been damaged a lot since the beginning of the war. We are from the north of Gaza and we are still in the north and have not displaced to the south. We displaced 10 times from place to another seeking to safety .
We hope for your help and support, even if only a little.
This is the link if you would to read our story well 👇👇
https://gofund.me/4e896ac1
Thank you all
HELP EVACUATE OLA’S FAMILY FROM GAZA
please please please check out their story and donate if you can !!! every dollar counts !!!

THINK FAST prompt 9 with frenemy luke castellan
here comes the final piece of the sunburn event! enjoy!<3
luke castellan x demeter! fem! reader
“You know, for a child of Demeter you’re not that bad with a sword.”
Putting the weapon back in its sheath, you sigh before turning around.
“Castellan ! What an awful surprise. I started to think I wouldn't hear your voice today. Guess Hermes had other plans for me.”
His frown is deep enough for you to understand that he doesn’t like that answer. You nudge his shoulder.
“Wanted to see me fail eh ? Sorry Luke, not today.” you grin as you walk away.
He’s by your side in a few strides, hands in his pockets.
“I mean, it’s fun seeing you struggle against me when we’re playing capture the flag, but no. Silena wanted to organize some kind of party or gathering and she told me to tell you that you’re invited.”
“You’re also a postman now ? Impressive. Did you get your own invite ?”
Luke shakes his head, fighting back a chuckle. “Of course I'll be there. I can’t let you miss me too much.”
“Yeah right.”
You and Luke have always been like that. Endless rivalry accompanied by friendly banter. No one really knew whether you hated each other’s guts or were simply concealing feelings to hide others. And no one really questioned it anyway. They knew that one was always in the vicinity of the other, whether you liked it or not.
“Where are you going ?” he suddenly asks, hands still in his pockets.
“Why do you care ? Do you have something to say to me ?”
He tilts his head and you can see his jaw tick.
“No…? Can’t a guy just walk with a girl ?”
You stare at him, eyebrows raised but you don’t grant him an answer, simply giving him a smirk. Luke shakes his head, chuckling.
Silena’s party was great. Luke was sitting next to you in front of the bonfire but to everyone’s surprise, you didn’t mind. His company was enjoyable, the absence of snarky comments surprising your friends. Your eyes strayed over to his face, his sharp features illuminated by the firelight. As if he felt the weight of your gaze, he turned his head, a knowing smile on his lips.
“Like what you see ?”
You nudged his shoulders. “Shut up.”
You didn’t move away, shoulders touching, hands grazing each other.
The fire was fading to a small flame, a few people going off to bed. Only Luke, you and a couple of your friends remained outside. The low chatter and the warm summer breeze lulled you to sleep. You tried to fight the tiredness but to no avail. Your head slumped to the side, unknowingly meeting Luke’s shoulder.
“Your girlfriend’s fallen asleep Luke.” Charles laughs at Luke’s startled face.
“She’s not my…girlfriend.” he frowns, looking down at your sleeping form.
“Yeah right.”
Luke doesn’t miss the knowing glint in Charles’ eyes but no one around the campfire misses the soft smile gracing his face.
Yet, he thinks.

HOW MUCH IS WEED with percy and the prompt “i couldn’t stop missing you even if i tried” <33 requesting for a bit angst hurt/comfort with a happy ending..congrats on a 100!!
here you go anon!! <3
percy jackson x reader
You didn’t think it’d go this far. A simple disagreement about something mundane led to an almost screaming match as you stood in front of your boyfriend, arms crossed.
“No, this isn’t how it works Percy and you know it !”
he scoffs. “Yeah right, because you know me so well don’t you ?”
It takes you a couple of seconds to retaliate. Without another word, you pick up your bag and your coat laying on the back of Percy’s couch.
“I’m out. I don’t want to deal with this anymore.”
As you storm through his hallway, your boyfriend is still in his living room, rubbing his temples. “go ahead!” he bites
With your hand on the knob, you turn back one last time.
“Don’t call me for a while. I think we need some space.”
Still blinded by his own anger, Percy snaps. “Fine by me!”
The last thing he hears is the slam of his front door. Falling back on the couch, Percy holds his head into his hands, his harsh words running through his mind.
You’re no better, angrily wiping tears as you head home.
You kept your word and stubbornly avoided any contact with Percy, yet a small part of you still looked for him in your notifications.
After a couple weeks without seeing the two of you hanging out, your friends started to plan something to get the two of you in the same room again. “You used to be practically joined at the hip! This can’t go on!” was what they all said.
And unbeknownst to you, they did plan to get the two of you together again. You were all supposed to meet up at the cafe on the corner of your street but no one was there when you arrived. Guessing they were late, you pulled out your phone when you suddenly heard a voice you haven’t heard in what felt like ages.
“Sorry I’m la- Y/N ?” snapping your head up, you’re face to face with a disheveled Percy, cheeks red from the probable run from his block to yours.
“Hi. I don’t think the others are coming.” you tell him blankly, already gathering your stuff to leave.
“Wait!” Percy starts as he sits in the chair across from you, laying a hand on your wrist. “Can we… talk ?” his eyes are almost pleading and you nod.
“Listen, I- I can't stop thinking about our argument, and about us. I messed up. I know you said you didn’t want me to call you so I didn’t but it was so hard trying not to look through all my notifications thinking about you.”
You smile at that, glad he felt the same way you did. Shaking your head, your hand reaches for his.
“It’s okay. I’m at fault here too. I shouldn’t have stormed off like that. I should’ve talked it out,” you pause “we both should’ve talked it out.”
“This won’t happen again.” he answers earnestly.
You laugh, “I hope so! It was so hard trying not to miss you.”
His hand squeezes yours. “I couldn’t stop missing you even if I tried.”

Hiii im sorry i forgot to put an au for prompt 70 and tbh none!!
hi anon! i ended up choosing an au that fitted the prompt! hope you like it <3
tennis player! percy jackson x tennis player! fem! reader
Percy Jackson and Y/N L/N, rising stars of the tennis world. That’s what every headline had to say about you. Fierce, competitive and unstoppable were the adjectives used to describe you and Percy. With a few trophies already under your belt, you could only grow and win more. The same thing applied to Percy. But although the two of you were seen as superstars, able to match each other’s strength, things weren’t as smooth off the court.
“Are you kidding me ? There’s no way I’m playing with him!”
Your coach sighs, pinching the bridge of her nose to avoid an oncoming headache. “Listen, there’s no other player your age with the same stats as you who can replace him. This is also, let me remind you, the opportunity of a lifetime. You told me you wanted to play in the Olympics and those doubles are just the beginning.”
“But he’s a jerk ! He was insufferable even when we were in boarding school together ! Doubles are all about understanding your teammate and working with each other ! He's so stubborn and so annoying! Do you think he’s going to even want to listen to me ?”
Pulling her chair back, your coach stares at you, a small smile on her face. “I think you’ll make him work just fine.”
The first time you step foot onto the court for your first practice, you hear him before you see him.
“Believe me, I don't want to be here either.” he bites and you roll your eyes
“I didn't expect anything else from you Kelp Head.” you answer as you turn around, putting a couple of tennis balls in the pocket of your shorts.
Percy scoffs at the old nickname.
“You’re still calling me that ?”
Ignoring him, you went to your designated position behind the net.
“Practice isn’t gonna start by itself.” you sigh, bouncing a ball with your racket.
That first practice was almost catastrophic. Hadn’t your respective coaches been there, the whole thing would’ve ended in endless bickering. You both reluctantly promised to make it work, for the sake of the whole team.
And you did, to some extent. The arguments were limited to the beginning and the end of practices and you were pleasantly surprised to see how well you played with Percy, looking forward to the actual competition.
After postgame interviews and celebratory pictures with your gold medals, you and Percy rush to the rest of the team who’s excitedly pulling the two of you in a bone crushing embrace. As the entire team cheers and celebrates the well deserved win, you pull back, admiring the sight in front of you. You’re moving away when Percy catches your wrist.
“Hey,” he calls out your name. “I uh, I wanted to apologize. I haven’t been that nice and… I guess I feel bad because you’re an amazing athlete and a great person too. Do you think I can make it up to you sometime soon ?” he shyly smiles.
A small grin is etched on your face when you answer him.
“Sure! I guess I haven’t been really nice to you either, Kelp Head.”

dancing in the courthouse with percy jackson with these lyrics from enchanted by taylor BUT WITH A HAPPY ENDING
This is me praying that
This was the very first page
Not where the story line ends
My thoughts will echo your name, until I see you again
These are the words I held back, as I was leaving too soon
I was enchanted to meet you
Please don't be in love with someone else
Please don't have somebody waiting on you
Please don't be in love with someone else
Please don't have somebody waiting on you
there you go lovely!!
percy jackson x reader
The booming music and the crowd of people were starting to get on your nerves. It’s been a couple of hours since you walked into Rachel’s house, your friend nowhere to be seen. She had greeted you as you stepped foot into the house, only to disappear immediately, drawn by the idea of a game of beer pong. On your own in a room full of people who knew each other, you were starting to feel uneasy. You did find some acquaintances as you walked along but none came up and talked to you.
Checking the time on your phone, you planned to stay another half hour and head home afterwards. Tucking the device in your pocket, you made a beeline to the kitchen, set on getting a drink in your system to calm your nerves. As you elbowed your way through the crowded hall, you were met with a broad chest and as you lifted your head, a pair of green eyes.
“Sorry ! Didn’t see you coming” you apologize, shy smile on your lips.
“It’s fine, I probably shouldn’t be hurrying down the hall like this anyway” he answers.
“Are you trying to escape someone or something ?”
“Eh, sort of…” he rubs his neck. “Rachel is trying to set me up with a friend of hers so I’m trying my best to hide. I don’t have the heart to ruin her cupid ideals.”
“Classic Rachel,” you laugh. “you’re lucky she hasn’t found you yet.”
Upon finding the two of you were friends of Rachel and desperately trying to enjoy this party, you immediately seemed to get along.
“I’m gonna get a drink, wanna come with ?”
“Sure ! I also found a quieter spot than the kitchen if you want”
Drinks in hand, you followed him to the place he mentioned. You gave him your name when he asked for it, softly repeating it to himself. His name lingered on your tongue as well while your eyes scanned his face, admiring his green eyes. As you made small talk, your new acquaintance named Percy intently listened to your voice, gaze roaming over your cheekbones, intently looking at the way your hands moved whenever you talked about something you were really into.
Minutes turned into hours and soon enough, all your attention was directed towards Percy. He had so many funny stories and everything he said was captivating. You talked about everything and nothing, from your respective majors to your favorite season. You both seemed to never run out of things to say, the uneasiness of earlier having slipped away and instead being replaced by a warm feeling of comfort. The cups were almost empty and forgotten somewhere as the night went on.
The buzzing of your phone suddenly broke the serene atmosphere surrounding you and Percy. A text of your roommate was an abrupt reminder of how late it was.
“Oh my, I uh, I probably should get going. I didn’t think I’d stay this late !” you smile, standing up.
“Alright, I’ll see you around then ?” Percy’s thankful for the low lighting in the room as he faces you.
“I hope so !”
That same night, long after he’s gone home, Percy is tossing and turning in his bed, the thought of you running through his mind. He regrets not going after you, not asking for your number.
In the following weeks, his hopes of seeing you again were dwindling. He was leaning on the counter of the campus coffee shop he worked at on Tuesday afternoons, sulking when the bell rang. Standing up straight, he opened his mouth to greet the new customer but his voice was caught in his throat.
“Oh hi Percy!”

HOW MUCH IS WEED
❛ your heart is beating so fast right now. ❜ with jason grace
jason grace x reader
Jason tried to hide his crush from you as best he could. But unfortunately for him, you noticed all the signs. Turning his head when you lock eyes with him, somehow always being around when you need him for something, looking slightly annoyed whenever you mention any other guy that’s not him. Jason was undeniably attracted to you. You figured it out a while ago but never acted on it, too scared to be misguided.
You met Jason a couple years ago through a mutual friend. You instantly clicked and never left each other’s side. Over the years, you were the first one to notice how he grew into his features, how considerate he was and how obvious he was with his crush. The constant arm around your shoulders and the way his jaw ticked whenever you mentioned another boy were dead giveaways. You often looked at him with a small smile on your face, heart hammering in your chest at the idea of being in love with your best friend.
During one of your weekly movie nights, you decided to act on your crush, for your sake but also for Jason’s. The two of you were always lying close to each other but you needed to get even closer to him. Readjusting your position, you ended up with your head on his chest. As if he’d done that a million times before, Jason laid his hand between your shoulder blades.
“Your heart beats so fast” you smile, lifting your head to look at him. He’s already looking at you.
“You’re the reason why.” his answer is simple but honest and your smile widens.
Putting a hand where your head previously was, you ask another question, although you think you already know the answer.
“Does this happen often ?”
Jason shrugs, and his answer makes your head spin.
“Whenever you’re around. You have no idea what you do to me.” he smiles, his hand coming to rest atop of yours.

thank you so much anon!!! hope you enjoy reading this<3
percy jackson x reader
Long before you and Percy started dating, everyone around could see that the two of you were meant to be. You both complete each other, as if one was the long lost puzzle piece of the other. You did everything together, all the time. You introduced him to your parents, and so did he. Every moment shared with him was treasured and turned into a precious memory.
Your first summer together was particularly special. Sally had insisted you came with them on their vacation in Greece. And you couldn’t pass on that offer. Having visited before, Percy was an amazing tour guide, while you were an amazing photographer, your boyfriend being your main subject. Always the observer, Sally managed to sneak a picture of the two of you playing in the sea, too distracted by each other to notice the shutter of the camera.
The Jackson family has always been caring, mother and son always ensuring you were at ease. On the last night out of the trip, as you were all on the way to a restaurant Sally had noticed on the first day, Percy wrapped his arm around your shoulders, pulling you closer to him.
“I’m glad you’re here.” he smiles at you and you can’t help but let your eyes roam over his face. The setting sun highlighted his tanned skin and his curls were still damp from the last hour he spent in the water.
“I’m glad I’m here, with you.” you answer and he beams, dipping his head to press a kiss to the corner of your mouth.
During dinner, you and Sally were engaged in a long conversation when Percy left for the bathroom. She looked at her son with a sly smile on her face, as if she was waiting for him to be out of earshot. She then turned back to you, reaching for your hand.
“You know, I’m very happy Percy has you. And I’m so glad that you’re here with us. You’re family now ! I hope you know that.”
At a loss for words, you only managed to mutter your thanks, squeezing her hand as Percy returned to the table.
Later that night, the two of you were laying in bed, the opened window blowing a soft breeze. Playing with his hair, you softly told him about the conversation you had with his mom.
“I know, I heard you.” he sleepily mumbled.
“Really ?”
“Hmm.” he nods “And I agree with her, but you’re more than family.”
Propping yourself up, you expectantly wait for him to continue. He looks at you, lifting a hand to cup your cheek.
“You feel like home to me.”

okay so this is the last one, I SWEAR, dancing in the courthouse with jason grace (i just need more fics with him).
lyrics:
I don't wanna look at anything else now that I saw you
I don't wanna think of anything else now that I thought of you
I've been sleepin' so long in a twenty-year dark night
And now I see daylight, I only see daylight
i LOVE jason sm thank u for requesting him!!
jason grace x fem! reader
Jason never believed in love at first sight. He’d seen enough movies to set his standards to impossible levels. And he’d also seen his mom desperately hanging on that man she swore loved her yet couldn’t even stay around or remember her birthday. But even though he built barriers around himself, Jason Grace was also a romantic and dreamed about love and being seen.
He swore he forgot how to breathe when he ran into the prettiest girl he’s ever seen. You were walking out of the grocery store, bags in your arms and chatting with a couple of friends when Jason was about to go in, holding the door for you and your friends. Turning around, you met his eyes, thanking him. The blonde simply stood there, watching you disappear at the corner of the street.
For the next couple of days, fate seemed to be on Jason’s side. He seemed to find you everywhere he went. You ended up introducing yourself while your friends were ordering some drinks at a cafe nearby. Jason repeated your name out loud once but it was the only thing on his mind. The two of you made small talk until your friends dragged you away.
“See you later, Jason!” the way you said his name made his heart race. He’d expectantly wait for the next time he’d see you around town.
You and Jason ended up exchanging numbers after he’d sheepishly asked for it while your friends were giggling, shaking your shoulders when he left. Afterwards, you were the one asking him to hang out, his eager answer bringing a smile to your face.
Jason then learned that you were staying in California for the summer and that you were actually studying and living in Chicago. He also learned that your favorite color was orange, that you hated cucumbers but always had a sweet tooth. On the other hand, he told you about his childhood in Pasadena, his older sister and that he was studying at Caltech. The more time you spent with each other, the more you felt drawn to him.
You freaked Jason out. When he realized how easily he let down his guard around you, how easy it was to be with you and how he felt like he could tell you anything it was already too late. He fell hard. Every second spent with you felt like a breath of fresh air.
During the last few weeks of August, you dreaded the end of the summer, but most importantly, you dreaded leaving Jason behind. The idea of him being a simple summer fling felt so wrong. So when he asked you to meet him one evening because “he had something important to tell you”, you immediately agreed, stomach turning in anticipation.
The two of you ended up walking on the beach, watching the reflection of the moon on the waves. The conversation flowed easily, until it didn’t. You didn’t want to force the words you waited to hear out of Jason and he obviously seemed conflicted about how to voice his thoughts. Suddenly stopping, he turned to face you, grabbing your hands.
“I uh, I’ve been wanting to tell you this for a long time but I couldn’t find the right time to do so. I know now is not the best time anyway but… yeah.” he takes a breath and you squeeze his hand in reassurance.
“There’s no bad time with you J, don’t worry” you smile
He lets out a little laugh, not letting go of your hands.
“I like you, a lot. You’re probably the best thing that’s ever happened to me. I, I can’t see anyone else now that I saw you, heck I don’t even want to think of anything else now that I thought of you ! I know you’re leaving soon and I should’ve told you this earlier but… yeah” he lets out a shaky laugh, rubbing his neck.
You stare at him dumbfounded, completely taken aback by the sudden confession. Upon noticing your silence, Jason pulls back.
“It’s fine if you don’t uh, feel the same thing you know…I… Just needed to tell you before you left—“
He doesn’t even have time to finish his sentence when you’re pulling him into a hug. Your voice is muffled by his shirt.
“Of course I feel the same way! You haven’t left my mind since the day you opened that door for me.”
You can’t see Jason’s smile but you feel his arms tighten around you.
