Inktober Day 12: Remote

TIM finally had the guts to introduce himself to his crush the other day! The next day she gave him a one-way ticket to a remote island by boat! Can you believe that? Just because TIM said, "Hi, I'm TIM. How are you?" She didn't even answer him right there (or that day). She answered the next day with expensive tickets! TIM thinks his crush might be into him!

It's Sizzlin' in the South

I read that more than 30 million people remain under heat advisories across much of the southern and central U.S. Officials have linked at least 13 deaths to the heat wave. The near-record temperatures are being driven by a weather phenomenon known as a heat dome — when pockets of hot air become trapped in place for days or weeks by variations in the jet stream. Temperatures are expected to…

Keep seeing people confused by Agatha letting the world believe she traded her son instead of telling the truth, but…kinda tracks, tbh. Not for the rational mind, of course. Not if you’re looking at it clearly.

Which Agatha isn’t.

She did the worst thing, in her mind. She fell asleep. She fell asleep, knowing Death had bookmarked her son for later, and when she woke, found him snatched out from under her. She failed him as his mother. She let go. And all the power in all the world wouldn’t be enough to bring him back.

So does the wildly grieving woman who has just lost her only child (to presumably her greatest love, but that’s a city-sized suitcase for another day) let herself go through the process of coping with and adapting to that grief? Fuck no! What is she, common?? She goes on a power bender! Even though the kid she prized in her heart of hearts seemed less than into that very thing! Even though that kid may have been able, given enough time, to convince her to stop! So now, not only did she fail him, but she also opted to speed race down Murder Road! For power! That she still won’t ever be able to use to get him back!

It gets muddled, after decades and centuries of this feeling. It grows teeth. In a way, she did trade him for power. In a way, she’ll always have that sitting on her chest. Never mind that it’s not true. Never mind that she wasn’t a bad mother at all (in this respect, anyway). Never mind that he was sick, and this was always coming. For Agatha, who has been stewing on this story she’s been telling herself for centuries, it is what happened. She traded her son. She did the unforgivable. She fell asleep.

JUL.8 POST NB EXPLOSION

hehehe Son of Neptune was my fav pjo book.

Some loose lore

To prevent the fucked up timeline, CW hints that he can find his family in… California?? And seeing as he just saw them EXPLODE HORRIBLY.. idk he’s not doing anything else, might as well check it out.

After some time he happens upon his cousin Percy being chased by two snake ladies wielding knives and food sample trays. Things just get more unhinged from there. He’s tasked with getting his cousin to some sort of ? Camp? But so many more questions arise during their time on the street there’s almost no time to even tell his cousin about the whole. Yknow. Being dead thing.

Bakely’s cheeks puff and her eyes grow big. Her palm closes into a gentle fist, cradling Sun’s message close to her pulse. “So, it was okay?”

Sun makes a show of looking around for anyone overhearing, then leans in close and makes a pinching motion with his thumb and index finger. “A little.”

Sometimes I watch a clip of the show again and I’m like oh yeah actually Sam was the one who rarely spoke about his emotions and the idea of him being the emotionally intelligent one is just because sams way of coping is intellectualizing his feelings and distancing himself from actually feeling his emotions when he talks about them.

Guy in the men's room at the library today got Big Mad that I came in to use the stall. He kept saying, "This is the men's bathroom" and "I know I'm a man; I was born with a dick" and various other transphobias. Kept talking shit to the point that I couldn't focus on peeing & getting out of there.

I finally yelled at him to shut the fuck up in my deepest, butchiest voice. He was arguing with me, saying he needed to shit (he had been standing talking to himself in front of the mirror before I came in, so I sorta doubt it). I told him to leave me alone so I could use the restroom. Or that he could use the women's bathroom himself. Thankfully, I'd texted my partner, who came in to help. A librarian also got involved. And this guy kept saying that I was harassing him and that I'd looked like a girl when I walked in. He threatened to call the cops (but didn't). The librarian told him he had to leave, and after some arguing with them, he finally did so. I'm very thankful I had support and allies around me.

So, idk where this fabled male privilege that I supposedly have was in that moment. Maybe it was hiding in my long hair. Maybe I left it home with the binder I barely ever use. Maybe my beard and voice weren't enough to make me pass. Maybe it was too high for me (a whole 5 foot nothing) to reach when I needed it. Or maybe, just maybe... people clock me as trans and therefore my would-be male privilege is extremely conditional based on how much I'm able or willing to conform to the gender binary (which I have no interest in doing).

Give me widower Mav who has come to terms with his husband’s death and now gets to make jokes and comments about it which makes people uncomfortable while he finds it hilarious pls

As someone who lost their father a long time ago I have reached that point where I can make jokes and comments and like to my close friends it’s funny but to someone I don’t know it’s… strange cause they don’t know how to react and it’s truly a small moment of absolute joy cause they make it weirder than it needs to be

Here is what I mean:

Fanboy: Hi Mav! I like your hoodie!

Mav: thanks, it belonged to my dead husband

Fanboy:

Mav: he’s not gonna use it so

…

Hangman, pointing at the ring on Mav’s dog tags: you’re married?

Mav: I was, but sadly he died on a terrible accident

Hangman: oh I’m sorry—

Mav: I’m kidding, he didn’t die on an accident

Hangman: oh thank god I thought I—

Mav: he died of cancer

…

Mav: my husband used to hate this movie

Phoenix: what made him change his mind?

Mav: oh he didn’t, he just died

…

Mav: I miss my husband

Coyote: why, where is he?

Mav: I want to say heaven but he was a weird man so honestly I don’t know

…

Cyclone: Maverick where is the paperwork I asked for

Mav: oh I’m sorry? I was mourning the death of my husband, in case you hadn’t noticed, the audacity, I cannot believe you would come for a widower like this—
