the way Percy's friend group is literally -

4 monsters:

half-goat who's technically twice his age

one-eyed brother who's technically half his age

surprisingly lovely giant dog from hell

strangely devoted flying horse who can talk

and an odd assortment of people:

his mama

immortal lesbian who was a tree for a few years

scary buff girl who bullied him a little

autistic kid who radiates death and had a crush on him

nicest demigod ever whom he had a crush on before he... died

allegedly normal girl who now randomly tells the future

autistic girl who tried her absolute hardest to hate him then promptly fell in love with him. now they're soulmates

goddess of hearth

when you realise James only learns Regulus’s name 10k words into the fic you’re writing that was just meant to be a one shot.

well done to me if I ever get this out 😅

i dont think about the 3 years ethan spent thinkin mia was dead.

i dont think about how he seemingly dropped everything the moment he saw her email. i dont think about him drivin all day to go to some old haunted estate in louisiana, or him bein sleep deprived and fatigued from drivin. i dont think about him feelin anxious or jittery or hopeful.

i dont think about him ignorin all the creepy gross shit he keeps seein, cause mia told him she was there. i dont think about how he musta felt when he saw her in that cell, how worried and scared and relieved he musta been. i dont think about him immediately needin answers, immediately askin what was done to her, immediately questionin everything the moment he knows mia is there and alive. i dont think about how he knows shes not tellin him somethin.

i dont think about his fear and confusion when mia suddenly attacks him, and i dont think about him anxiously pacin around the hallway and bathroom pickin up the phone and not knowin what to do what he should do and i dont think about how he felt when he thought he killed her i dont think about him reachin to her i dont think about him drawin back before he touches her i dont think about him afraid and confused and tired i dont think about his brain stutterin, strugglin to keep up with all the shit that just started happenin i dont think about him holdin the stump of his arm walkin around tryna get to the attic cause a stranger on the phone told him maybe he can get out that way. i dont think about him runnin away from his wife, scared that shell kill him, confused what shes talkin about, still bleedin out. i dont think about him pickin up a gun and shootin his wife, because now hes seen her get up after dyin. i dont think about him only bein there cause he desperately missed his wife.

i dont think about him dying there.

skraelroc werewolf au

(give me an au and i'll give you five headcanons; thank you for the ask!)

we're going with "general canids" here because

bellroc is obviously a maned wolf (chrysocuon brachyurus) bc they likewise are 90% leg, have a magnificent ruff, and just generally give off an air of "you expect them to be giving off shoujo manga sparkles."

skrael is an arctic fox (vulpes lagopus) because literal years ago i sent a rp partner a picture of an arctic fox stealing an egg like "that's your boy!" and now. that boy is now my boy. egg-stealing trickster bastard but so cozy comfy in the cold (plus summertime gothmode) and soooo cute.

nari, of course, is a tanuki (nyctereutes viverrinus) because nobody remembers tanuki are technically canids AND ALSO while that's true of all three of these species, racoon dogs are more closely related to foxes than maned woofs. also also, per wikipedia: "they are reputed to be mischievous and jolly, masters of disguise and shapeshifting but somewhat gullible and absent-minded." hello.

fox!skrael showing up on the lake family doorstep because he loves causing problems. barbara coos! picks him up! jim come here look at this little man. i'm gonna have to start getting him the good food. do you think people would like him on instagram? jim, meanwhile—merlin's champion woofhunter…?—immediately calling arcadia animal control,

bellroc. gets. a king arthur squeaky toy. they deserve it.

…perhaps not the truest to the spirit of the prompt (wee crow was a vampire lad), but. bork bork. grrr. awoo!!

Alright uninformed rant time. It kind of bugs me that, when studying the Middle Ages, specifically in western Europe, it doesn’t seem to be a pre-requisite that you have to take some kind of “Basics of Mediaeval Catholic Doctrine in Everyday Practise” class. 

Obviously you can’t cover everything- we don’t necessarily need to understand the ins and outs of obscure theological arguments (just as your average mediaeval churchgoer probably didn’t need to), or the inner workings of the Great Schism(s), nor how apparently simple theological disputes could be influenced by political and social factors, and of course the Official Line From The Vatican has changed over the centuries (which is why I’ve seen even modern Catholics getting mixed up about something that happened eight centuries ago). And naturally there are going to be misconceptions no matter how much you try to clarify things for people, and regional/class/temporal variations on how people’s actual everyday beliefs were influenced by the church’s rules. 

But it would help if historians studying the Middle Ages, especially western Christendom, were all given a broadly similar training in a) what the official doctrine was at various points on certain important issues and b) how this might translate to what the average layman believed. Because it feels like you’re supposed to pick that up as you go along and even where there are books on the subject they’re not always entirely reliable either (for example, people citing books about how things worked specifically in England to apply to the whole of Europe) and you can’t ask a book a question if you’re confused about any particular point. 

I mean I don’t expect to be spoonfed but somehow I don’t think that I’m supposed to accumulate a half-assed religious education from, say, a 15th century nobleman who was probably more interested in translating chivalric romances and rebelling against the Crown than religion; an angry 16th century Protestant; a 12th century nun from some forgotten valley in the Alps; some footnotes spread out over half a dozen modern political histories of Scotland; and an episode of ‘In Our Time’ from 2009. 

But equally if you’re not a specialist in church history or theology, I’m not sure that it’s necessary to probe the murky depths of every minor theological point ever, and once you’ve started where does it end? 

Anyway this entirely uninformed rant brought to you by my encounter with a sixteenth century bishop who was supposedly writing a completely orthodox book to re-evangelise his flock and tempt them away from Protestantism, but who described the baptismal rite in a way that sounds decidedly sketchy, if not heretical. And rather than being able to engage with the text properly and get what I needed from it, I was instead left sitting there like:

And frankly I didn’t have the time to go down the rabbit hole that would inevitably open up if I tried to find out

okay i just marathoned the entirety of ATLA live action & i might do an actual review of it explaining my thoughts more in depth, but the TLDR version basically boils down to this:

I see you got Astolfo to 120! Congratulations!

Thanks! Your message made me realize id forgotten to post about it on here. After a long struggle with bond points i have finally perfected my paladin. He is level 120. His skills are 10/10/10. His append skills are 10/10/still need more servant coins for this last one but it doesn't matter bc its just a random bit of anti rider damage. He is Np5.

It's

Your Friends Astolfo.
