Here’s our MTGinktober for “Sun,” starring Huatli, the Sun's Heart and Elspeth, Sun's Champion! I guess nobody wanted to hear her flappin', double slappin', no-nappin', scrappin', unflappable slam poetry--tough crowd.

i feel like one of the most intimate things you can do with a person is give them your tumblr. especially if they arent someone you know well cuz whatever they see will probably influence how they see you from then on. they will see your embarrassing fanfiction. they will see your crappy fanart. they will see your stupid little incorrcet quotes. and the best part is if they dont judge you for it. like showing someone all of the most embarrassing parts of you and them still accepting you and loving you

Me trying to beat the Apollo Kid allegations but I:

Have been doing Youtube since I was 10 (Spotlight starved fr fr)

Have been drawing longer than I can remember

used to put on talent shows for my entire family

Would read fantasy books but wouldn't DARE pick up non-fiction (I still don't)

Have been writing silly lil stories in my siblings old notebooks since I was a kid

Writing and drawing comics for my siblings

MAJOR theater kid syndrome

literally writing a musical

Been writing music since I was around 10

Ex Choir Kid

Animator

Blonde hair

LOVESS the sun & the beach

Loves music

Literally I have 5 siblings, which cabin has a lot of kids? APOLLO

My room is very cluttered and filled with random posters

I like to comfort others

My favorite game as a kid was playing Doctor

I'm a raging Achillean twink

transgender

ADHD

Autistic

Guys I swear I'm not a son of Apollo I would never be that gay

Writing a book about the myth of Apollo and Hyacinthus and literally yaps abt it 24/7

Ok, so we know all the Apollo kids are all theater kids right and Nico is both gay and Italian so I can just imagine:

Will: I have a big announcement!

Will: This man is gay and European!!

The rest of the Apollo kids acting as the chorus: He's gay (and European!)He's gay (and European!) He's gay (and European and gay!)

Nico, having been dragged into this: Fine, okay, I'm gay
