#and the entire book series

[somnas-writes]

Thinking about how if MCGA gets an adaptation is gonna be either A. toned down/altered to accommodate the sheer amount of violence OR B. it’s gonna be book accurate but have such funny CGI

Like Hearths magic? Alex shape shifting? All the giants and large beings that appear? JACK???

The funny thing about the PJO cabin system is that everyone's always all 'oh the twelve' this and 'the twelve' that but that's absolutely not even remotely accurate. To start, right off the bat it's thirteen, not twelve, because they don't count Hades. But not really because before Percy, there were no big three kids, so we're down to ten active cabins already but it's actually eight because Artemis and Hera don't make demigods.

And of those eight, Mr. D is stuck at camp (thus not really making new demigods all that often) and his only two kids don't even sleep in a cabin, they sleep in the Big House with him.

So, pre-Percy, there are seven active cabins at Camp Half-Blood:

Glee club, the Jocks, the Nerds, the Geeks, the Farmers, the 'Sketchy Kids' and the Popular Kids.

Or, in other words, the Apollo, Ares, Athena, Hephaestus, Demeter, Hermes (and the unclaimed kids) and Aphrodite cabins.

What's cool is that you can already see the cabin dynamics in the show. For example, the Athena cabin allies with the Hermes cabin for the numbers. The Hermes kids plus all the unclaimed kids? It's the biggest cabin in the camp by far. It's a battle strategy. Luke and Annabeth's close relationship is just the cherry on top for Annabeth. It'll be really cool to see how the show develops the differences in the cabins during the series.

okay but. annabeth having having feelings for percy. and KNOWING he's developing feelings for her too. but refusing to act on it until she thinks he's about to die. and she'll never get another chance to. so kisses him. and then he crashes his own funeral two weeks later. and now neither of them can deny the tension anymore. and they still have a year left to see if it's even worth saying out loud. or if he was always destined to leave her. because the prophecy has yet to pass. peak writing.

Ok look, I maintain that the Immortals series (Tamora Pierce) is the best female power fantasy because the protagonist gets to:

talk to all animals (including whales)

befriend dragons

raise an army of dinosaur skeletons

single-handedly overthrow a government in a fit of rage

[some-pers0n]

At this point I no longer want to talk with people who go on about how WoF needs to be more gorey and gruesome I'm straight up going to strangle them through the screen

[percabetn]

okay listen to me LISTEN TO ME. the simple fact that percy thought of annabeth to keep him anchored to the mortal world. how he yelled “no one touches her” when she took the stab for him to protect her. the way he felt “like somebody was poking his heart with a cold metal rod” when he saw annabeth injured. her telling him that she took the knife because he would’ve done the same for her and because she had had the feeling that he was in danger. the fact that he trusts annabeth with his achilles spot because “if he couldn’t trust her, he couldn’t trust anyone”, so he gently guides her hand to the small of his back so that “a thousand volts of electricity seemed to arc through his body”, and even when she removed her hand he was still holding it because she is his lifeline, the person who kept him linked to the world. and how then, while watching the sun rise over the city, annabeth opened up to him about luke and hermes, meaning that they opened up to each other both physically and emotionally because they’re both the person the other trusts the most.

wait actually that would be a really fun in the tags game: do you have any books that are signed / inscribed by the author?

my copy of the slow regard of silent things was inscribed by pat rothfuss, ocean vuong and ross gay have signed my collections of their poetry, and i have a few books by friends and teachers with very sweet inscriptions

mfs when

"we accept the love we think we deserve"

"love is being willing to ruin your good painting at the chance at a great one"

"but do you like me?"

"sometimes, you just have to let people love you"

"this isn't normal. this isnt how life is supposed to feel"

"i know ill never be an ordinary kid."

"maybe i do just ruin people's lives"

"incase i dont see you; good afternoon, good evening and goodnight"

"but they'll never know how tragic and boring and insecure you really are, or how high school was the best your life was ever going to get"

"in the end, he was not Nina or Matthias or Kaz or Inej or Jesper. he was just Wylan Van Eck. he told them everything."

"he didnt make jinx. you did"

"i dont know whats scarier. the fact that everyone in this kingdom wants to run a sword through my heart, or that sometimes, i just wanna let 'em"

All I’m gonna say to anyone who claims to like Bernard or Timber is the very second we see them again or even just Bernard, you’d all better be buying the Fucking Issue

[eskildit]

i think a lot about hot sauce and jeannemary. two young girls so ready to kill and to die. a comparison made all the worse when you recall that hot sauce lost all her family to the cohort, that she can specifically recall fourth style necromancy (using corpses as bombs). a fourteen and thirteen year old that could easily have been on opposite sides of the same front line.

Did a quick page inspired by Armand. The lines are a bit messy, but i like it anyway.

meg mccaffrey not being in the top ten of the book series she co-led in should be considered treason
