#breaking hearts is getting old

[chaotic-theatrical-weaver]

On the wrongs we commit in love and how we (fail to) cope:

wanting to take it back

fixing everything in rewritten memories (featuring the recognition of failure and of fantasy)

destroying yourself

despairing under the weight of a being whose sole purpose you believe is to harm

okay but what if seeing quirkless pro hero Deku on the news inspires quirkless former-pro Takami Keigo to try the whole hero thing again, but this time on his own terms

I just love whenever Jinx is in her zone. Creating. Fixing things. In her flow in every sense of the word.

And I think it's pretty significant that she's wearing claggers goggles here.

It's a sign that she's healing. At least a little bit. At least significantly more healthy than a creepy voodoo doll. But then this happens.

The monsters show up. And worse. Her sister has become the monster.

The monster she always swore she would protect her sister from.

Now she's leading enforcers. Into Zaun. To hunt Jinx down. It's by far one of her worst nightmares.

But I think this moment is what really triggered her. Vi picking up those goggles and claiming them as hers. A symbol of Jinx moving on. Maybe forgiving herself just a little. Of course she had a panic attack. Of course she hesitated.

And it was only really after this moment that she decides "to finish off the last of my family." It's only after this moment she decides to go on her suicide mission.

What ever you do don't think about Percy reading Estelle a little kid version of 'The Odyssey' because that's what Sally read to him but he doesn't want to scare her. Don't imagine Sally looking on with guilt in her eyes cus she HAD to read him the real one so he knew what to expect. Don't think about Sally looking down on her little girl with tears in her eyes cus she doesn't need to worry about snakes in her bed or teachers being Cyclopes. Don't think of Sally seeing Estelle with Paul and having to leave the room cus when Percy was that age they had Gabe. Don't think of the unimaginable guilt that Sally must feel for being relieved that Estelle's biggest battle at 16, is her Dad being her teacher. And whatever you do don't think about Percy feeling like an outsider in his own family even though he gets constantly reassured that he's part of it and loved.

One of the many unintentional, understated moments of dark humor in this series is this little bit after Ray’s changed into clothes that aren’t drenched in lighter fluid. His mind is such an utter mess he spent the whole time changing thinking, “okay, maybe Emma didn’t quite get what I was saying during my earlier speech because I was being a little bit too over the top. I’m sure if I explain more calmly why I need to and deserve to die, she’ll understand and agree with me.” (The little slump of his shoulders when he starts that second line, too. Granted, it takes a lot to undo years of such belief and self-loathing, but the resignation in his voice and body language is crushing.)

Her of all people. As if she didn’t just immediately dart out and save his match from hitting the floor without a single second of consideration spent on the damage it would do to her hands.

And her response is to slap him hard enough all the remaining lighter fluid in his hair flies off. 10/10, comedy gold, bawling my eyes out!

I was re reading a bit and looking back camp half blood DEFINITELY has some sort of hazing going on.

Cause you look at characters like Percy and Piper and start to wonder.

Like, a LOT of people forget, but Percy was NOT well liked when he got to camp. He was the newbie, unclaimed, AND he was getting attention because he killed the Minotaur. Clarisse wasn’t the only one out to get him. It took Percy until the third book to get the reputation that he as with the campers because they didn’t like him.

He was mocked for everything, for being a new kid, for not knowing anything, for killing the Minotaur, for being a child of the big three.

And you have to realize that outside of the big three thing, they were ALL in his shoes before. So it’s almost nonsensical for them to give him a hard time. Unless it’s a type of hazing.

This behavior is never brought up again but it’s actually one of the reasons Percy likes Luke so much in the first book. Outside of Chiron and Grover, Luke was the only one being nice to him.

Because he was being HAZED.

And it would’ve been a one time thing but I think each Cabin has there own niche of hazing because you then get Piper and get a look into the Aphrodite cabin.

Firstly, you have to break someone’s heart in order to be accepted, weird. You have to do everything Drew says or else your on cleaning duty or want to wake up in the middle of the lake or smth. And your start at the bottom of the pack before working your way up by becoming one of Drew’s minions. It’s like every stereotypical sorority film.

There’s also the fact that it’s mandatory that you get robbed when you first stay in the Hermes cabin, need to get glory in order to STOP being bullied, and kiss a boar when you first get to camp (deleted chapter)

Like throughout the series, I think the only people we don’t see go through this are the Zeus kids (privilege), Annabeth (seasoned camper) and Leo (nice siblings).

And like Nico kept leaving because he thought no one liked him because he was a Hades kid. So imagine if, no, it wasn’t being he was a Hades kid, he was just getting the mandatory hazing. Like he thought everyone hated him but they were just fucking with him the whole time.

But yeah, CHB definitely hazes people.

Have any of you ever had this heart-wrenching experience where you see an amazing fanart of some character, that dies in canon relatively young, but is depicted in their would-have-been old age? Fanart where the character has grey hairs in their head, fanart with expression lines and textured skin, where it is undeniable that the character lived.

I remember the first time when that happened to me with a character I adored and really wished they could have had the opportunity to live and enjoy life, not just survive.

That shit brought me to tears.

can't believe this hasn't been said before but unhinged!scarlett and unhinged!dave would be an iconic duo. shame pi didn't get a second season bc these two in an alliance would basically succeed in destroying the island, they'd wipe everyone out

the fact that they're both versions of the nerd character so they're already smart in their own ways, the fact that they have absolutely zero fucks to give anymore, their individual darker sides have come out (whether it was hidden consciously (scarlett) or unconsciously (dave)), and they've each attempted to kill/seriously injure one or more contestant(s) (and mess up the island in the process) just to reach their end goal. imagine if these two found a common goal somehow, literally nothing could get in their paths (except possibly each other)
