#sorry if I made you cry

[luna-the-cretar]

When Gideon was really little—let’s say about 5 or so—they had some pigs on the farm. One pig gave birth, and Little Gid immediately got attached to the runt of the litter. His Pa wanted to kill her and spare her, but Gid cried and insisted otherwise. His Pa, not wanting to deal with a sobbing fire genasi (who he quickly learned whose powers get really out of control if Gid’s emotions get out of control—there’s still a good portion of the farm that got burnt down after one particularly bad tantrum), let Gid keep the runt. And Gideon, being 5 and also generally not good with names, named her Oinkee.

Oinkee was Gideons best friend. He would burn the world down for her. Loved her almost as much as Gricko loves Hootsie.

When Gideon was about 8 years old, his Pa handed him an axe, and told him that they needed bacon for the morning. By that point, the only pig with enough meat on her bones to be worth killing was, well, Oinkee.

Gideon doesn’t like to think about that time. He’d rather think about the happy memories. Before the axe. Before he betrayed his best friend.

Gideon can’t help but find himself relating to Oinkee now, in some sick cruel way. She was a small scrawny thing, and Gid—young and not knowing the consequences of his actions—fed her until she got big and strong, before he was handed the axe. Later on, Gid ended up being a small scrawny thing, and Kremy saw him, and fed him until he got big and strong.

Now Gideon is just waiting until Kremy gets handed the axe.

Thinking about how Nico lost Bianca first to the Hunters of Artemis and then to death, and how books later he lost Jason to death, and Reyna to the Hunters, again.

He lost his sister and then his first close friends to the same things.

silena beauregard x reader

"maybe in another universe you lived."

warning: drakon fight silena angst

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

you saw it all happen.

you cried into your dying girlfriends chest, after watching who you thought was clarisse get spat in the face by the drakon.

her blue eyes fluttered open and closed as you cupped her cheek on the side that wasnt burning with poison, and gave her a tender kiss. to your surprise, she actually slightly kissed back.

"its all okay. everything is gonna be fine." you sobbed as she looked blankly into your eyes. to all the gods, you prayed that silena would actually live.

your grabbed her hand, squeezing it to try snd reassure her. percy and annabeth, who had been watching over her were gone now. you didnt blame them, you were in a war right now. you were about to call for an apollo kid, but they had all died on the bridge.

after force-feeding her an unsafe amount of nectar and ambrosia, the burn didnt get better. a minute and thirty seconds had passed since she fell.

"take care of my siblings for me.. okay..?" she managed as she slipped her bracelet onto your wrist. her voice was soft and weak which made you tear up more.

"no. silena please." you choked out, watching her eyes close.

they didnt open this time.

------------------------------------------------------

you stood at the center of the amphitheater, giving your small speech about silena. fidgeting with the bright pink dyed ends of your hair, specifically for silena, you finished talking and sat down. the pink smoke rose into the sky, as the burial shroud burnt. it took all your willpower to not run away crying. she would want you to stay.

you twisted the rose quarts bracelet around your wrist, as tears fell from your eyes.

"im sorry silena. im so, so sorry."

Sometimes I'm sad, watch s2e6 again and cry. Then, I remember that we'll get to know (no matter what happens) how things will end; and Neil said everything will be fine. That's when I smile and tell myself "it'll be okay".

They'll make up. Aziraphale will understand Heaven is shit. Crowley will be valued and loved. Earth will be saved again.

Who knows? Maybe the last 15 minutes of season 3 make us cry again, but this time of happiness. Maybe we'll see our angel and demon joking in a southern cottage. Maybe they'll have a beautiful garden. Maybe they'll both have shiny rings. Maybe Crowley will offer Aziraphale an appl. And maybe, just maybe, he'll take it and smile.

Maybe...

i present to you: the romantic goth byler i was yapping abt

[death-himself]

as someone who’s a very casual watcher viewer (i don’t think i’ve watched any videos in months) as well as being a media major, this situation is so fascinating to me

ghost files costing $50k per episode??? 25 employees??? what do you need a director for to make survival mode? it’s literally just a lets play

seeing people break down their expenses with flight costs, rooming, etc. is really interesting too, i need to ask my professor about this situation, it’s just so wild to me

SOME RANDOM THOUGHTS / HEADCANONS ABOUT MAX COOPERMAN

just realized that aside from jake, most of max's relationships with people were either superficial or transactional which he probably just thought was normal growing up as a rich kid who was a "loser" learning that ppl only liked him when he had something to give them.

of course, when he was younger everyone loved to go to his birthday parties b/c his parents were loaded and they always planned something extravagant to try and make up for the fact they were never really around but, as he got older his parents stopped really caring to put on those parties. after that, no one bothered to give max any attention or befriend him unless they saw his wealth as something useful, or just brought him around so he could be the butt of the joke. and the second they got what they wanted from him they discarded him. being the kind-hearted and naive boy he is, he doesn't really fully grasp it until after ryan beats him to a pulp. he brushes off what happens but it honestly profoundly affects him from then on.

he thought ryan was a friend but turns out he was just being taken advantage of, his parents didn't care to come see him in the hospital despite how serious his condition was, and jake, the only genuine friend he ever had, ends up leaving (prolly bc college) and max later refers to him in passing as "a guy i brought up back in the day" which hints that they likely don't talk anymore.

so college starts. a fresh slate. max guards himself with this macho (with a very small hint of being an asshole) persona. he's got a leadership position as the RA of his floor, got two nerdy "friends" that are very reminiscent of ryan and his guys (remember when they snicker along with him at mike?), and a semi-famous reputation online. he loses weight the summer before college and decides to stop fighting (probably caused by the trauma from ryan) but we see he uses hand grips so even he definitely wants to keep himself strong for his physique and to protect himself. though max is still fairly lean which is likely an insecurity for him. the last thing he ever wants to be seen as is a dork.

let's not even talk about how being conditioned like this affects his views on women and relationships. first off in highschool he only gets attention from baja's friends b/c of his association with jake, then in college he gets all this attention because he's "attractive" now and has this cool car, dorm and fame due to the fighting videos + promotions. he's (mostly) only ever made out with drunk women at parties or events that just throw themselves at him but it never goes further than that.

he likely has made himself believe that he should think of women as prizes (again as awful as ryan was max kind of molds his new self with his influences subconsciously. he had the kind of attention, the girls, the intimidation factor max aspires to have), but if a girl were to ever genuinely like him it would fry his brain. he wouldn't understand the idea of someone wanting to spend time with him, even if he wasn't really doing anything. to intently listen to him and partake in his interests. or how much happier you'd look after just going on a walk around campus with him vs. when he bought you jewelry or flowers.

it left him with a feeling he only experienced once before when jake saved him, and went after ryan.

it just clicks for him like-

oh. this is how it feels to be genuinely cared for.

it's not soon after he realizes that you tell him you love him for the first time, while cuddling in bed (he's sure his mother used to say it to him when he was younger but he honestly can't really remember anymore-- the most communication he has with his parents now is the deposits into his bank account).

once the door closes, and you've left for your classes.. he feels the lingering heat of your lips, your words echoing in his head and the way you looked at him...

and he cries.
