The only fictional relationships I'm interested in and obsess over have the character's s/o's nickname as either:

Love

My darling god/My sweet nemisis

Darling

My dear

My dark benevolent queen

OR something like:

Snob/Troll/Wifey/[Last name]

Seaweed brain/Wise girl

Sarge

OTHERWISE I DONT WANT IT

[writergracethepanda]

Using the word 'wifey' is cringe and mysogenistic unless you are three teenaged girls who just found out your male best friend was your collective wife in a gender swapped past life.

[lucyshypemaster]

we genuinely need more platonic male-female relationships like the one brynne and aiden have

[hazellevessque]

My headcanon is that all of the Rick Riordan Presents books + Rick’s books take place in the same universe so I would like to imagine Brynne, a girl from Manhattan, has offhandedly mentioned “this boy who blew up the buses in fifth grade and got expelled” to the other Potatoes at least once

FREE PALESTINE. REBLOG THE SUFFERING. SHOW PEOPLE WHAT’S TRULY HAPPENING.

TO EVERYONE SCROLLING PAST ALL THE POSTS ON ‘FREE PALESTINE’ I HATE YOU. TO EVERYONE LIKING AND NOT REBLOGGING, I HATE YOU. I HATE YOUR VERY EXISTENCE.

DOES IT KILL YOU TO REBLOG? NO. BUT IT KILLS THEM IF YOU DONT. SO FUCKING REBLOG. IF YOU SCROLL PAST THIS, ALL IT DOES IS ADD SOMETHING TO YOUR CRIMINAL RECORD. BECAUSE OF YOU, SOMEONE MIGHT NOT EVEN BAT AN EYE TO THIS GENOCIDE. BECAUSE OF YOU, PALESTINE COULD BE LOSING NUMBERS EVERY MINUTE. BECAUSE OF YOU, CHILDREN ARE GETTING WIPED OUT.

HOW HEARTLESS MOST OF THE WORLD IS.

I AM NOT PALESTINIAN. I AM NOT MUSLIM. I AM NOT JEWISH, NOR AM I ISRAELI. I AM SOMEONE WITH OPEN EYES AND COMMON SENSE, AND A HEART. AND IT IS TOO BAD THAT MOST PEOPLE, PARTICULARLY PRO-ISRAEL OR ZIONISTS, DO NOT HAVE THIS.

YOU. YES, YOU. CAN MAKE A DIFFERENCE. OPEN YOUR EYES. LOOK AT THE SCARED FACES OF EVER PALESTINIAN AND I DARE YOU TO THINK THEY ARE THE CRIMINALS. I DARE YOU TO THINK ISRAEL IS THE VICTIM. I DARE YOU. DARE YOU THINK THIS, YOU ARE SUPPORTING GENOCIDE.

THEY WANT YOU TO THINK WHAT THEY SAY. THEY WANT YOU TO BELIEVE THEM. IF YOU HAVE SO MUCH BELIEF THAT YOU CAN BELIEVE THESE BLATANT LIES, YOU HAVE ENOUGH TO BELIEVE IN THE REAL VICTIMS HERE.

Would you believe me if I said all of these graphic novel adaptations (except for the whatever after one) came out in 2022?

Very Aru Shah coded

[bberry005]

haven't thought about aru shah in a WHILE but halloween and diwali being on the same day seems like something aru would be obsessed with so i'm thinking about her again

[hazellevessque]

“I can explain…”

“No, you can’t”

“Wait, I know you”

“No, you don’t.”

“You’re were in the infirmary that night,”

“Yes, I’m Annabeth,”

“Are you stalking me, Annabeth?”

“Yes.”

This girl has no chill and I am here for it.

This scene was so Aruden

[thelasttaleofthepari]

I would kill for a small short story book from Roshani about TPQ because there’s SOOOO much she could talk about:

- Kara’s adoptive family before she got taken away

- Suyodhana and Krithika pre-Aru being born

- Brynne, Nikita, and Sheela during the EoT era when everything was frozen besides them?? (I think it was confirmed in SoD that they, at least Brynne, weren’t frozen when everything else was??? Or am I misremembering- still good story potential though)

- Kara’s adoptive family before she got taken away

- MORE HIRA STUFF PLEASE MORE HIRA ANYTHING (I would LOVE to see a story with her and Mini and their brother though)

- Aru and Aiden. Just them. Thats it.

- Hira beating Brynne in a fight because that’s Brynne’s type

- (Aiden POV chapter of Chapter 34 in NOI)

- More self indulgent but I need a story so bad in the POV of some random bystander seeing the Potatoes’ shenanigans

- MINI AND RUDY IN THE CATACOMBS

- DID I MENTION KARA AND HER ADOPTIVE FAMILY BEFORE SHE GOT TAKEN AWAY???

- The two months that Aru was gone. What was going on during then.

One of the many things TPQ does so wonderfully is that these are all characters who have their own depth and their own stories. We see the story through Aru, but the other characters are never once a one dimensional side character who exists just for the sake of the plot. They all have such depth which gives so much to explore that we only got a glance at in the TPQ books! I wish we could revisit the world and see more of the things we didn’t in the series :(
