Annabeth is the type of person to buy Percy flowers whenever she leaves for a while or just whenever she feels like it and Percy absolutely adores it. He has a collection of pretty cases so he's always ready for a new bouquet, and even presses and dries the flowers before they can wilt so he can keep them forever.
#He has this photo album just filled with pressed flowers#random headcanons#percy jackson#annabeth chase#percy and annabeth#percabeth#pjo fluff#(i was thinking about my late great grandma today and how she and I used to press wild flowers and leaves that grew in fields aroutour house#-so heres a Percabeth hc regarding flowers)

two indisputable facts about the walls of the curtis house:
1. there is a long line of crayon drawn from one end of the hallway to another. soda’s bedroom door has a crudely-drawn horse on it, underneath the crayon line. the crayon mark is referred to as “load-bearing” and cannot be removed.
2. the doorframe to the kitchen desperately needs to be replaced, but it never will be, because there’s a makeshift height chart on there with little markings for every member of the family that date back to when their dad was a kid, because it’s the house he grew up in and grandma curtis made sure to keep track at least once every year, and darrel kept up the tradition after his parents died. darrel 6/7/30—3 y/o—shoes on. darry jr. 4/17/58—11 y/o—shoes on. sodapop 8th birthday—no shoes. ponyboy 11/14/53—4 mos.—sock feet. mama curtis has an entry from after she and darrel sr. got married. the gang all get initiated into the family via being measured on the doorframe. soda has never been measured in shoes because he refuses to wear them. nowhere was an actual measurement in inches or centimeters ever used. just a line and a silly little note. so many people are included over the years that it’s unreadable and the gang’s kids will have to start a new list on the other side of the doorframe
#im gonna be sick thinking about that second one I miss my grandma’s tiny battered down hundred year old house.#the outsiders#the outsiders musical#ponyboy curtis#darry curtis#sodapop curtis#curtis brothers#the outsiders broadway#my post#wish desperately I could provide a visual for the second one but alas I would doxx myself bc for some reason I wrote my last name on there#and the video I took of the whole thing would never upload#by the time i was born we had to start writing around the corner bc I have so many cousins on my moms side#so my brother and I and the great grandkids got the other side around the corner lmao

Batfamily as things that have happened in my house Part 2
Dick, at Bludhaven Police Department, talking to another officer: Man things sure have been crazy recently.
Officer: Yeah, I have to write 10 reports just from today.
Dick: Golly, that's a lot.
Officer: Did you just- did you just say "Golly?"
Dick, getting flashbacks to when he was Robin and was told not to swear all the time: Yes?
Masterlist
#My coworkers tease me about saying golly all the time#or holy hannah#its like i get possessed by my great grandma or something#just full on small town talking#dick grayson#nightwing#bludhaven#officer dick grayson#batman#robin#batfamily shenanigans#Light's house as batfam

Still not over the april fools drawing that it's technically canon(?) that juwan becomes a young dad
#no home#집이 없어#park juwan#eunyung#think he'd be a great dad :) the one who actively partakes in the kids interests#while eunyung is her favourite uncle i think haejoon might scare her at first but eventually warms up#“you mean none of my uncles are related to me.” “no sweetie they aren't. “ ”my whole life was a lie.“#“you do have an uncle though.” “what.”#"my brother that you saw a few years ago at grandma's house.“ ”seriously? The guy you talk to once a year?“

Did u grow up poor or rich? How do u think that affects how u see money today
Poor, we got almost all our food from the church at many different points (for a hot minute they even payed our rent so we could get out of the house my Dad had keys to), and at many points my mom worked multiple jobs to keep the family afloat.
It's definitely made it so I have spent money on things that I don't need but I wanted so badly as a kid (a Kit Kitredge American girl doll probably tops the list). I'm also more likely to be willing to spend money to do something fun, like go to a concert. But, I think it also made me paranoid about saving. I used to overhear my mom and stepdad talk about money, and I started having panic attacks over the bills when I was 10 or 11 (and then got banned from being anywhere near the discussions because "you are a kid this is not your problem") so I have like this deep seated fear of us needing money to keep the electricity from being turned off again that I started saving my own just-in-case money.
#the turtle gets asks#why we had to leave the house basically over night is a not great story#lets just say that my mom and the bishop at church had reason to believe he would harm us kids#... because he said he would if my mom divorced him#so we moved while he was visiting my grandma

making infants a thing in the sims 4 is the worst thing that ever happened to me. like theoretically i agree with babies no longer being literal objects but as the worlds' number one toddler gameplay hater, introducing Toddlers 2: Even Less Independent Version has been my personal nightmare. my family is on baby number 2 now and i actually hate his little face. make it stop
#i have loathed toddlers since the ts2 i can still hear them screaming and pulling at the bars of their crib if i close my eyes#i know i can just age my sims up and skip it but i need the reward trait for freakishly fast skill gain okay#i got lucky though because apparently sometimes family members will randomly stay over for a couple of days before/after a baby is born#but since i sped through the pregnancy and the baby phase theres now 2 great-grandmas in the house who autonomously take care of the infant#btw the great grandmas are vampires and theyre accidentally dating their step-grandchild because i forgot and then it was too late.#no one is married though so the game doesnt recognise them as family at least...? 😭#personal#the sims

do you think that the guerra household has money now? i dont mean like rich kind of money but enough to be comfortable? to own beachfront property, right off the shore of a popular tourist town (and probably vacation destination) is expensive, even if her grandfather owned it and its been passed down. would the rewritten narrative be that fransisco and his wife decided to splurge on a plot of land on the beach or perhaphs an old lighthouse and he built the house himself? do they have people make offers on the house to the tune of millions that they keep turning down?
#paranatural#my grandmas house is in san diego and is in a great location (on a hill looking out over the ocean. not even on the water)#she and my grandpa bought the plot of land back in the 50s and built it themselves. when they died it went to my mom and my uncle#he lives there and unfortunately hes thinking about selling it which hurts my heart but. we cant buy him out of it. its worth like. 1.7 mil#WHICH IS ALL TO SAY. her house is worth a lot. even if its some monstrosity built up by the dojo students or hasnt changed since the 70s
