status: closed for @athenarhea​ ! location: the nemean hall, olympe. event: the hall of hidden knives ! 🛡

he’s here in pursuit of hypnos. keeping track of everyone hasn’t been an easy feat, but achilles has managed so far. he could probably just text hypnos, but what’s the fun in that? sometimes it’s fun to sneak up on someone and see what happens. he hasn’t actually been in the nemean hall, before. the hall’s ceilings seem to rocket upwards past the point of reason. everything is a strange, golden hue that makes him feel like a headache’s on the way.

people walk by at breakneck pace, their heads bowed as they review... whatever it is that’s related to the news, probably. he doesn’t know. cutting through the sea of faces, he spots athena rhea. she’s easy to spot, recognizable as any of zeus’ children are from the sway of nepotism. achilles weighs his options, connects the dots in his head, and then decides to throw logic and reason out the window in favor of poking around in business that isn’t his. that’s half his job, after all. her quick exit from tartarus and tisiphone’s subsequent change in mood hadn’t slipped his notice. there’s no better day than today to figure out why. “athena!”

                    now playing ... ♫   “  𝙒𝙊𝙉𝘿𝙀𝙍𝘽𝙄𝙏𝘾𝙃  “

       𝐜𝐚𝐬𝐬𝐢𝐞 𝐬𝐚𝐧𝐝𝐬𝐦𝐚𝐫𝐤 + social media ... spotify account !

𝐓𝐀𝐒𝐊    #𝟎𝟏.   a look at cassie’s playlists   /   links +  meta under cut.

music is a major part of cassie’s day to day life,    as  it’s  the  main  method  she  uses  to  help  manage  her  emotions.   she’s  incredibly  poorly  adjusted  to  life,   not  to  forget  inherent  anger  issues  ( only  worsened   from  her  year  of  being  manipulated  by  ares )  , and uses  music  to  help  channel  her  feelings  when  they  become  too  much  for  her  to  handle.  her  other  coping  mechanism  is  violence,   which (  unfortunately  )  is  not  always  an option.

  she  has  playlists  for  every  person  and  every  occasion.  she  also  listens  to  them  exclusively  on  ipod  nanos,  she  has ... so,  so,  so  many  of them. however,  as  a reflection  of  her  emotions  she  never  shares  them  with  anyone.  and  never  lets  anyone  listen  to  music  with  her.  it’s  a  private  affair  and  how  she  communicates her  feeling,   it’s  like  a  little  diary  that  only  she  gets.   and  now ...   i will expose her. 

𝗽𝗹𝗮𝘆𝗹𝗶𝘀𝘁 𝟭:    liked  songs.    (    aka.   the  main  playlist.  )  /  60  songs. -  songs  that   cassie  simply  just  vibes  with  /  whether  for the  lyrics,  meaning,  or  melody --  these  are  just  her  go to fave  songs.   

𝗽𝗹𝗮𝘆𝗹𝗶𝘀𝘁 𝟮: god sent me as karma.   (  the  workout / bad bitch jams. )  /  16 songs. -  the songs  cassie  uses  in  her  workout  classes   /  self  defense  classes  or  when  she  really  needs  to manifest  the  right  vibes.

𝗽𝗹𝗮����𝗹𝗶𝘀𝘁 𝟯: mind your business.  (  u wanna talk about repressed feelings babes? ) aka. fuck u athena / 18 songs. - when a guy has you tearing out ur hair and you kind of want to scream and kind of want to tear out your hair and kind of want to wallow in your self-depreciation of never feeling you’ll be good enough.  ft.  a song  breakdown of the first 10 songs because these lyrics do be hitting !! it is embarassing how dow bad she is, yes.

01.   good  girls  don’t  get  used  /  (  if you adore me, why do you ignore me? i liked it better when you sent me "sorry" when i was sad.  stop saying, "it's my bad" you're acting like your deadbeat dad  )   02.  don’t  delete  the  kisses  /  (  and i like you, and i'll never let it show and you won't wait, and maybe i won't mind i work better on my own and now i'm home, a little bit drunk and i ask myself what if it's not meant for me? love )  03.  bored&blind / ( honestly, i'm kinda burned out i've been waitin' so long i guess i've just been watching your mouth try to form the words of a love song )  04. unrequited love & other cliches /  (  i guess i'm a fool, you're so tricky i really believed you were into mei guess you fooled everyone )  05.  achilles heel / ( loving you's my achilles' heel drop my guard when you're with me, i can't deal i just hate when i walk on these pins and needles i want to kill this achilles' heel ) 06. i shot cupid / ( you broke my heart when i told you not toand now i keep on crying in the bathroom and in the club too, it's like a monsoon i wanna hate you (hate you) ) 07. want me  ( i wish i thought that i was pretty so that i could turn you on i had a dream you called me pretty and i told you you were wrong / i'm twenty something so i tell myself to just grow up ditch my pathetic fascination with this unrequired love ) 08.  the knack  (  so, tell me how to do it tell me how to love like that does it take a lot of practice? or do you gotta have the knack? )   09.  bodybag  / ( don’t  know if i hate you or want to date you wanna kiss you on your cheeks but also punch in your teeth. )
