last night i got home kind of tipsy and very much in tears and my mother told me the force you exert to keep someone in your life is proportional to the force with which they will leave your life. if you have to fight tooth and claw to keep them, their leaving will be just as hard, just as harsh, and just as definite.

why are PJO characters most consistently measured in scales of Michaels?

Like. this is some of the most specific height information we have out of most characters, besides maybe Percy being an inch shorter than Jason. The Michaels Scale...

Obsessed with what America and England have going on in HetaOni. America's like "I keep having to watch my dad die from overusing his magic in past timelines and not knowing how to stop it is killing me inside but I'm not going to talk to him about it" and England's like "I can't seem to hold a conversation with my son without insulting him but I won't hesitate to use my dying breath to ensure I can protect him from beyond the grave"

Romano stole his heart his sweatshirt. He can’t keep getting away with it!!

This was for a Romano request (but I couldn’t resist sneaking in some RoMerica). I accidentally deleted the draft post with the ask on it sorry!😭

Also thanks Grem for letting me use your Alfred palette, though I didn't use it to its full extent here.

Bold of JKR to assume we'd find Snape unattractive, based on her description of a hook-nosed, black-haired, sallow-skinned, thin dude

Miss ma'am.

I am Italian. That is what most men in my country look like. That is literally what my dating pool is.

Ma'am.

Please.

After playing Signalis, walking through an Italian island cemetery was a religious experience

[iamthepulta]

Yesterday we went to the church of San Clemente! It's one of the oldest known churches and also an archeological site, headed by the priests there.

The church itself was built in the 12th century, but was built on top of a church built in the 4th century, which was built on top of a 1st century pagan worship site, avenue, water channel, and public building.

The stonework of the 12th century church, shown above, is absolutely gorgeous and highlights stone stolen from the pagan temples and the forum. The red porphyry breccia in particular is the stone of the emperor, and comes from Turkey.

Going down to the 4th century church, you see frescos in Greecian style, from refugees fleeing the Muslim Istanbul conquest of Byzantium (/Constantinople/Istanbul) where they weren't allowed to paint images of gods.

I highly recommend a visit!

been stewing on this one for a while but i said i was gonna post more of my headcanons so here's a little bittersweet tidbit;

childhood was a really rough time for Diomedes and Sthenelus (and the other younger Epigoni as well) full of a lot of grief and sorrow and confusion, and the weight of your father's legacy crushing shoulders too young to uphold it or begin to understand it. Diomedes, for the most part, doesn't even remember Tydeus. All he really knows is the idealized version of him Athena and others hold him to. Sthenelus has fleeting memories of Capaneus but refuses to remember - he only resents. Their childhood was spent being trained up to be weapons.

But even so, I do think there were moments where they got to just be kids. They built their own little fort of escape somewhere they knew would remain hidden. It took weeks of stacking rocks with what little free time they had until it was perfect, and it was theirs, and it was somewhere where they didn't have to be wise beyond their years.

They eventually forgot about it as they got older. They sacked Thebes, Diomedes restored Oeneus to the throne, and then the Trojan War happened, and all the things in between being on the battlefield - getting married, becoming kings, Sthenelus even had children of his own. The fort lay forgotten and untouched, a reservoir of good memories they'd both buried a long time ago.

And then, when they're fleeing Argos, they find it again, reclaimed by the vines and the leaves. All their old stuff is in there still, little wooden swords and shields, animal and soldier figurines, drawings they etched into the rocks. It's the only place they ever had that wasn't overrun by sorrow, where they weren't forced to fill the shoes of men they don't (or refuse to) remember.

But there's just no time left. They have to leave it knowing they'll never see it again. All they can do is hope they can hold onto a fragment of the tranquility their younger selves buried there.

Any idea why J.P and Zoe were on the train alone :_)))))))). Where were they going?

Are you referring to the Train of Hope drama? I want to believe they accidentally met at the station and Izumi got the chance to ask him how he was going at uni. Therefore, she got excited like always and asked him to sing in front of her -this is confirmed by her words-, without pondering the weight of her choice and its consequences lmaooo.

Still, japanese shippers think they were actually going somewhere together and who am I to go against this fantasy of theirs.

I mean, I don’t have any proof. I’ve just got the message the Frontier kids, like the Tamers ones, do not meet that often. Izumi seems the only one who cares about the group and I can imagine her wanting to spend time with everyone. She knows about Kouji’s first journey plans, she helps Takuya with italian, she seems to call or talk to Tomoki often, she keeps in touch with Junpei now and then…Idk what she does with Kouichi, she doesn’t really say anything that relevant about him.

Anyway, nothing stops me from imagining Izumi herself will eventually get off the train with Junpei so they can talk about the big group holiday to Italy.. EHM Izumi, remember Junpei planned everything by himself, so pay him respect and make an itinerary together to surprise everyone at the announcement of the proposal lol.
