❂ jolene mcgowan was a metalsmith, by trade, she created beautiful jewellery by smelting gold and silver, set with precious stones and shards of sea glass she collected near her home in the coastal town of cherryfield, maine. she crafted beautiful blooms with leaves which would never wilt, never die, blew glass, she mended timepieces, clocks and pocket watches with deft and reverent hands. these are the soft calloused palms that hephaestus fell hopelessly into; warm and welcoming and good-humoured.

❂ 1943 dawned, rough and unkind as she fought with her family to protect the identity of the father of her baby, born out of wedlock in a small town. the little boy would never make it over the brow of the hill in long island, halfway through massachusetts he falls.

❂ she didn't learn the lesson, though she was stripped of some of the light that drew the god to her in the first place, they reunited yet again and another child was to be born from the glint in their eyes.

❂ red hair and green eyes like her mother, billie is full of fight from the minute she stretches her mouth open and begins to scream, her mother joking that she always had something to say ever since.

❂ wilhelmina, a mouthful for such a small child and even harder to spell, shortened to mina and then through protest changed to will, then to billie.

❂ billie watched her mother hollow out before her very eyes, harden herself to the inevitability of her daughter's demise. if jolene drew back far enough, fast enough, she wouldn't be hurt when the gods didn't favour her offspring once again. wilhelmina yearned for attention, to feel that warmth fall over her once more but instead, she struck out, becoming a problem.

❂ this rejection seared her edges, though the fall from her mother's graces wasn't as far or as fast as her father's fall from olympus, she vowed to herself to always stand up for what she believed in, no matter the personal cost. cowards irk her, though of course, the greek doesn't fall far from the tree, she can be a hypocrite.

❂ billie was a constant flight risk, disappearing for days at a time on a whim but the concern their family felt ebbed, even when they started to see things, when inexplicable things began happening to them.

❂ it took a year and a half to make it to camp half blood, billie never running with crowds long enough for satyrs to catch hold of her. disappearing like smoke between their fingers. billie has some pretty extensive scarring over most of her body from her years on the run but spite is a powerful motivator, the fire she draws from within helped her survive and still does. (might have some collateral damage from this use of flame, she tries not to think about it.)

❂ strode into camp with their head held high, and attacked every part of training with unwavering tenacity no matter how many times they were knocked down. not the most naturally skilled fighter but she makes up for it in spades with ferocity, dogged relentlessness and sheer power. billie never knows when to stay down.

❂ is often caught intercepting tourists and mortals by yelling extremely creative obscenities and insults at them, it gets them to leave, at least she stopped draping her hair over her face and running at them screaming in tongues when chiron asked nicely.

❂ the chip on billie's shoulder is big, anyone who knows her can see it but she's filled in the cracks with liquid gold and moves with the hurt. her word is her bond and though trickery is almost a sure shot, she'll never let you forget that you're a liar and you'll be paying until your final breath. billie hates bullies.

❂ an excellent craftsman and smith, billie will usually help anyone with the forges if they ask, for several years refused to partake in her cabin and father's vocation out of pettiness but now loves the way it takes her out of her head to bear something new into the world.

❂ pinball champion, has never worn a matching pair of socks in her life, feeds the raccoons around camp, used to be a state champion gymnast, will fire-eat and fire dance for special occasions like her friends' birthdays, can remember all the lyrics to any song she hears and hoards music like gold, spends a ridiculous amount of time and money on taking polaroids and buying film, will burn your monopoly board, drums on every nearby surface at all times, accidentally burns things to a crisp when she sneezes, can and will nap absolutely anywhere it's kind of ridiculous.

Born into a name and legacy without ever having to work for it, Dante had an ego from day one. as well as his father being the one and only Giovanni Moretti, leader of the serpents, his mother a highly respected member of the gang as well.

Giovanni loved his son and saw him as a mini version of himself from day one, excited to be a part of raising his first born son. from the day he arrived in the world baby Durante never wanted for anything.

As a child he was always seeking trouble, knowing daddy could get him out of any situation he found himself in lead to him feeling untouchable. in both of his parents eyes their boy could do no wrong.

He was a daddy's boy from day one wanting nothing more than to make his father proud of him and doing anything it took to make that happen in any way possible. He began training under his father from the age of 14 to one day take over his position as leader of the serpents and has never looked back.

Dante had been cold and ruthless his entire life, always seeing others as nothing but pawns in his games and tools for his own purposes just as daddy taught him. when the news broke a few days ago of his father's death Dante didn't feel sad, he only felt anger. He vowed to do whatever it took to avenge the man who taught him everything he knows. After all... his learnt his ruthlessness from the man himself and that was never going to stop with his death.

“Thanks, but I’m Gay” parallels in How to Get Away with Murder and Futurama

[westallenss]

I loved how the show ended the same way it all started. Christopher becoming a professor at Middleton Law School just like how Annalise was. Annalise teaching him and becoming his mentor. Him teaching the same class she has been teaching. Annalise having been there since the first moment he was born. Without her he would have died when he was born and now she lived long enough to teach him. Annalise becoming such a huge part of his life. Annalise watching over Christopher while he’s teaching and looking proud just like how she used to be proud of Wes. I loved how it became full circle. That ending was beautifully done.
