hey guys!! just a little update: my uploads may be slow and kinda inconsistent for a bit because i made the lovely decision to get a new full time job on top of being a full time student!! (i had to, unfortunately) iā€™m doing good, but while i get adjusted to this new packed schedule of mine i have to put this blog on the back burner, because unfortunately steady finances and education comes first over my passions and hobbies :,(
i can at least say that at the moment iā€™m working on or planning out:
ā˜† requests (my current top priority!!)
ā˜† some requested c.ai bots
ā˜† the next part of subj3 called ā€œblank spacesā€, which will span from the rest of the readerā€™s high school career to the end of college
ā˜† a longgg mcd x reader fic called ā€œkismetā€ (that will have laurance as the love interest)!
ā˜† maybe some more sims?? i love love making them but i will see if i have the time sighh
but anyways! thought iā€™d let yā€™all know what iā€™m up to and why i havenā€™t sent out any more requests </3 i hope youā€™re all well and staying warm & safe! love you all!!

can it be love if itā€™s only been a night? ā™„ļø (steddie au; āœØmeet-cuteāœØ on a train šŸšž)
Itā€™s not that itā€™s the last stop. Itā€™s notĀ evenĀ the last stop. Itā€™s more than Eddie feelsā€¦suddenly-and-not-suddenly-at-all, like itā€™s the last chance he has to pivot the whole trajectory of his life. To look down the diverging road toward where heā€™d planned to try and end up, versus the opportunity to reconsider that maybe he hasnā€™t started his life at all, yet. Maybe all the years heā€™s had so far have just been a waiting space. For this.

Tumblr media Tumblr media
Itā€™s not that itā€™s the last stop. Itā€™s notĀ evenĀ the last stop.
Itā€™s more than Eddie feelsā€¦suddenly-and-not-suddenly-at-all, like itā€™s the last chance he has to pivot the whole trajectory of his life. To look down the diverging road toward where heā€™d planned to try and end up, versus the opportunity to reconsider that maybe he hasnā€™t started his life at all, yet. Maybe all the years heā€™s had so far have just been a waiting space.
For this.
Because fuck himĀ blind, heā€™d got on that trainā€”whole-ass adult, rockstar wannabe, still canā€™t drag your ass on a plane?, his band had razzed him bad for it while they headed out day-of to meet with the label whoā€™d shown interest but, well, yeah, to all of it: almost 30, still does not trust tin cans in flight, the train is a more than acceptable alternativeā€”and heā€™d lucked into one private room with a bed left, and for an almost-two-day journey heā€™d fucking needed it, and so heā€™d settled in, heā€™d ripped his Sweetheart carefully in the corner, and the whoosh of the doors to his little cabinette had startled him, because theyā€™d already checked his ticket, so what, and whoā€”
But then his brain had stilled. And heā€™d met soft honey eyes in midafternoon light.Ā So sorry, had come the kind of voice that put the music Eddie loved by in his veryĀ soulĀ to shame;Ā I think they double-booked this room-thing.
And itā€™d turned out they had. But there were two beds. And both of them were headed the same direction. Same destination, even. Union Station to Union Station. The attendant had apologized up and down, promised at least partial refunds but Eddieā€¦
Eddie had, likeā€”
Those doors had opened. And it was likeĀ his lifeĀ had walked through. He hadnā€™t even known he was waiting on it until right here it was.
Eddie doesnā€™t want aĀ refundĀ for it; goddamn.
The afternoon bleeds into evening. His cabin-buddy, his life-person, his maybe-soulmate or somethingā€”Steveā€”gives up on the book heā€™d pulled out about thirty minutes in; better than Eddie, who thought heā€™d watch the country slide by in the 40-some hours between Chicago and L.A. Feel his heart stirred by the purple-mountain majesty, pastoral grandeur, however that shit translates to his genre of choiceā€”but basically, heā€™d been hoping to glean some poetic lines for the ballads he knows they need to at least consider, to balance an album pitch.
But he doesnā€™t see shit, in terms of the sights and scenes. In terms ofĀ inspiration, though: Eddie stares at Steve like heā€™s hypnotized. Caught blissfully in a gravitational pull that outstrips anything heā€™s ever know.
And his heartā€™sĀ moreĀ than stirred.
Steveā€™s eyes meet his once he zips his bag back, tucks it until the lower bed.
ā€œWas not expecting motion sickness on a train,ā€ Steve comments wryly, massaging his temples. Eddie would like to volunteer for that role, immediately if possible.
He digs out some Advil and one of the complimentary water bottles in the drawer near the head of the beds, and hands both to Steve.
He, despite his condition, smiles so goddamn bright Eddie thinks he can feel it in the marrow of him like soft simmering, like starlight.
He pretends to write in his little notebook he takes everywhere, beat to hell but trusty, little lyrical snippets and campaign ideas heā€™s kinda afraid heā€™ll never have the party to set into motion, but still needs to get out of his head just to keep this side of sane.
Right now, his pen is justā€¦sketching.
If it looks like the line of Steveā€™s jaw, fuck you.
Eddie can do what he wants with his own notebook.
He manages to keep quiet, which is a feat for him, but also speaks to this unnameable things heā€™s already associated with thisĀ Steve, a near-cellular effect heā€™s having on Eddie that he can neither articulate or even attempt to explain, to quantify. Heā€™sā€¦
ā€œI know you didnā€™t sign up for a roommate,ā€ Steve doesnā€™t break the silence, his voice pitched low like a whisper when itā€™s just the two of them; ā€œbut if you wanted, since weā€™re here,ā€ he shrugs, and his lashes flick up near-hopeful, too close to shy for the wrong reasons:
ā€œMaybe we can get to know each other a little? Past just first names and that I apparently canā€™t write on a moving vehicleā€
And Eddie, who is loud and abrasive as a rule but keeps the things that matter pressed close to the vest even with his closest friends, his flesh and blood: Eddie?
Eddie scoots over on the lower bunkā€”itā€™s still set to be a sofa-type thing, for now, and where Steve had settled in a chair across from it presumably out of courtesy, Eddie pats the space now open next to him. Hopes like heā€™s forgotten he knew how that Steve will stand, and sit, and let Eddie feel warm in his orbit.
He does. All three things in a breath.
Eddie feels a little lightheaded. A little breathless.
But Steve is very warm, and Eddie feels immediately at ease like heā€™s pretty sure heā€™s never known. They dive in to the real stuff, donā€™t really start with small talk, just sprinkle it in along the way almost just for variety, for flair. Their hopes, their fears, their ambitions: what theyā€™d both ordered for their shitty included train meals. Life and death and loss: Steveā€™s year-long engagement broken off three weeks beforeĀ I Do; Eddieā€™s guilt over his mom, for losing her when maybe if heā€™d somehow managed to pull their family name from poverty in time where no one else had ever swung it, her last days wouldnā€™t have looked like they did. Steveā€™s pwn parents, alive and hateful; Eddieā€™s uncle, stubborn, and all he really has.
Steveā€™s hand grabbing his when he says as much; Eddie wanting to believe itā€™s deliberate, that it means something.
That Eddie could haveā€¦more.
This, even.
Poking at each otherā€™s food with their forks, trading vegetablesā€”why order it if you hate the carrots?because the rest of it sounded good, duh;Ā how can you not like broccoli? They even gave you cheese sauce!Ā thatā€™s any insult to the word cheese, for one, and to the main point: trees should never be considered edible, and in miniature at thatā€”end of.
And then theyā€™d fuckingĀ laughed, and Eddieā€™s heart had swelled, and Steveā€™s eyes had never left his face and, andā€”
The move on to their dreams, which account for a lot of why theyā€™d both got on the train in the first place: Steveā€™s a writerā€”not published, heā€™d tried to dodge, to diminish himself, but Eddie wouldnā€™t have it:Ā you just want to add that part; youā€™re soulā€™s always an authorā€™s soul, youā€™re neverĀ notĀ a writer if itā€™s written in your bonesĀ and Steve had flushed so magnetically, all Eddie had wanted was to reach and feel its warmth; and Eddie of course is trying to be a musician, butĀ trying?Ā Steve had turned his own logic straight back at him;Ā youā€™re a musician because itā€™s written in you cells, Iā€™d say. Your fingers have been tapping rhythms since I sat down. Iā€™d bet my whole wallet that little Moleskine of yours is bleeding lyricsĀ and for a moment, Eddie thinks heā€™ll reach for it. He never lets people read his notebook. Steve would find the sketch of himself there, on top of it all.
Eddie had wanted him to reach. He hadnā€™t, though.
Heā€™d asked instead why the fuck Eddie was wearing Reeboks when the rest of him screamed Doc Martens. Which then slid so naturally into a genuine masterclass on the evolution of the unquestionable supremacy of the vaunted Nike.
Itā€™s long past moonrise before they realize the time. Thereā€™s no excuse to have lost trackā€”save for each other.
Given theyā€™d both booked the cabin as single occupants, the linens are only for one of the two berths. They could ask, easily, for another set.
Eddie makes his bed on the top and asks if Steve wants to share, against the chill creeping in.
Itā€™s midsummer. Thereā€™s no such thing.
Steve climbs the ladder, flicks off the lights. And Eddie canā€™t ignore it anymore. The way the veins and tubes, the arteries and capillaries and mechanisms folded in around his heart have disengaged, and the unchained thrumming of the wayward muscleā€™s flaring like a freed balloon, too much helium and no clear direction save upward, upwardā€”
More.
Steve hesitates, only briefly, before he tucks into Eddieā€™s chest. The moonlightā€™s dim but Eddie can read the thing on his features: confusion, too small and inconsequential to have even the slightest chance against a gaping-uncomprehending shade of wonder.
ā€œTell me you feel it.ā€
The lips that speak move against the proud bone that runs the center of Eddieā€™s chest, protects his heart as it feels to be growing weaker, more vulnerable every goddamn second he breathes beside this man.
But itā€™s in that moment that he learns thatĀ SteveĀ is brave, theĀ hisĀ heart is the kind legends live for.
ā€œYouā€™re like magic made flesh,ā€ Eddie confesses, because his words tend to live in the clouds a little, but he means them soĀ true; he gently, slowly threads fingers through Steveā€™s hair and pulls him close to actually be able to chart the heartbeat heā€™s lined up to; that heā€™s wholesalely responsible for the way itā€™s lost everything it knows about pumping to a point.
ā€œIt feels like my heartā€™s beating something better than blood,ā€ Eddie whispers, after Steve can feel the evidence for a moment or two, toĀ know; ā€œlike you breathed somethingĀ moreĀ into me, like I was waiting for you.ā€
ā€œLike we were meant for this,ā€ Steve finishes the line exquisitely, pure perfection, his lips dragging against Eddieā€™s skin before Eddie canā€™t bear it, has to reach, to tip Steveā€™s chin up and try and find what he doesnā€™t know how to name.
Save that he finds it, immediately, in those eyesā€”like they were just waiting.
For maybeĀ him, specifically, and the very notion thumps hard in the center of his chest like a track change, a divergence.
Like this is the moment to look back upon when he decides, and soon, if the world is going to change; of the path is gonna reshape itself beneath his feet.
ā€œAm I insane?ā€ Eddie asks, because his head adds everything up to that conclusion, but every part of him feels more at ease, more set to rights than heā€™s remembers knowing ever, not once.
And Steve considers him before he cups eddies cheek, tender. Like home.
ā€œEntirely,ā€ he concludes, without a shadow of doubt, and Eddieā€™s chest feels buoyant again, and his cheeks hurt for beaming, andā€”
And then Steve leans, and kisses him, and the world changes. He can feel it. Because nothing ever felt wholly right before; Eddie sometimes thinks his life this fa head just been chasing anything that felt like it fit.
And now thereā€™s this man out of nowhere, who feels carved to match his very bones. Who exhales when he breathes in. Whose heart thumps his counterpoint so thereā€™s never anything save life beating between them: unceasingly.
Like home, Eddie had thought, as if heā€™d found itā€”but no.
No, he thinks theyā€™re making it, here between them now.
He slides his tongue between Steveā€™s lips and cradles the moan he earns inside the tip of his quaking heart, so it can live in him forever.
So it can be the foundation of whatever home will mean from this moment on.
Then he dives in deeper, to learn the taste of what home will be henceforth, just as sure.
~
Sunrise is kind of gorgeous, and unfairly soā€”the windows are small and they need a good cleanā€”but also unsurprisingly: of course itā€™s gorgeous. Steve is in his arms, his breath on Eddieā€™s collarbone.
What in this world could be anything less than sublime?
They lounge, mostly hum and kiss and explore each otherā€™s skinā€”it remains the unspoken rule that anything more isnā€™t made for here, but unlike the night before, thereā€™s an addendum Eddie can feel in the drum of his pulse that theyā€™re agreed upon:
Itā€™s not for here. Itā€™s for elsewhere. Itā€™s for later.
Just because itā€™s not for here doesnā€™t mean itā€™s not forĀ them.
And itā€™sĀ thatĀ a fucking thought.
Itā€™s strange how much quicker the time sees fit to pass, upon rising with intention: their lunches comeā€”theyā€™d slept through breakfast, are asked if they want both together, a late bit of brunch and Steve giggles a little, and Eddie says yes.
Because heā€™s decided, just now, that a core tenet of his entire being is going to be coaxing that kind of thoughtless honest joy from this manā€™s strawberry lips.
They stretch the meal out long past it turned cool; they feed each other delicate, wanton, filled with care that makes no sense because it speaks to years, to life, and not hours, not two worlds that never held one another less than a day before now.
That partā€™s filled with a quiet devastation, a mourning: how can you love without your life for yourĀ whole life?
And now, halfway through the journey: they may both have boarded with the same destination on a ticket. But Eddie isnā€™t a fool, not about this: if they disembark in California at the very same platform, theyā€™ll never cross paths again.
His heart arches too hard for it to be anything but true.
The sunset is mediocre, but Eddie thinks it may be his own sour fear that colors it. Heā€™s in Steveā€™s arms, now. Itā€™s not so late, yet. The train will stop soon, let some off. Bring some on.
Then away.
*Ask me not to.ā€
Eddie says it from nowhere, without context. Itā€™s clear though: ask him not to go, ask him not to meet his band, as him not to be anywhere but here, in these arms, ask him not for less than always, ask himā€”
ā€œI couldnā€™t,ā€ and Eddieā€™s breath catches, because his heart does first. ā€œItā€™s yourĀ dream.ā€
And Eddieā€¦itā€™s only been hours, but Eddie feels like Steveā€™s voice is his true mother tongue. He heard what it says below:
whatever I could give you is nothing compared to whatā€™s driven you this long, this far; however I could maybe come to sneak inside your heart would be pale, childā€™s play, and insult to what youā€™ve wanted forĀ alwaysā€”
And Eddieā€™s heart fuckingĀ hurtsĀ to hear whatā€™s underneath, so he kisses Steve with everything thatā€™sĀ trueĀ as best he knows and asks him, lips to lips:
ā€œCanā€™t a dream change?ā€
because youĀ areĀ magic, youā€™re a already in my veins, you make the things I thought I wanted more than air look anemic, feel paper-thin because all thatā€™s real is you, is you,Ā is youā€”
ā€œIn a night?ā€ Steve whispers, breathless, eyes wide.
ā€œWhat other length would a dream ever have?ā€ because itā€™s an honest question. Itā€™s probably why everything feels so deeply urgent all of a sudden in the middle of the night: dreams fade with the daylight.
This one wonā€™t leave Eddieā€™s heart until that heart stops beating for good. But heā€™s deathly afraid of alighting the stairs and losing this.
He needs to lay the bricks of the new road he travels, with Steveā€™s hand in his. He needs it before Steve fades away.
ā€œI want you.ā€
Steve looks at him with tenderness; with far too much resignation.
ā€œYou want whatā€™s out there.ā€
He had. Thatā€™s true. Butā€”
ā€œI wantĀ you,ā€ Eddie repeats it, tries his best to stamp it into the road heā€™s choosing here and now, tries to explain that Steve is a revelation he wasnā€™t looking for, but only because he didnā€™t know it was there to find:
ā€œI want this, with you, not least because you couldnā€™t ask.ā€
Steve quirks a brow at him, as he fluffs Steveā€™s feather-soft hair behind his ear.
ā€œYou said youĀ couldnā€™tĀ ask, and for my sake alone,ā€ Eddie breathes, hopes Steve can read the distinction, the crucial difference glowing in his eyes like it thrums in his pulse. ā€œNot that you wouldnā€™tĀ wantĀ to.ā€
Eddie wants to feel shame that the last bit comes out a little like a question, in need of reassurance, but before he can give in, Steve leaps, comes alive to rebuke all doubt and itā€™s then that Eddie knows, feels the track click right.
ā€œItā€™sĀ allĀ I want,ā€ Steve half hisses, eyes on fucking fire; ā€œbutā€”ā€
Eddie frames his face and kisses him like heā€™s the most precious thing, which he is; heĀ is.
ā€œLet me play for you while you write your novel,ā€ Eddie narrates the track theyā€™re on, now, the world theyā€™re changing with eve try heartbeat. ā€œLet me sing forĀ you. Letā€™s try all of this together, and see if we canā€™t be better for the whole of it that way, better than weā€™d have ever managed apart.ā€
And he leans in again for a kiss, because he canā€™t help it.
Because in this new life, on this new road: it may well just be that heĀ can, as often as he likes.
ā€œBecause I fuckinā€™ swear the moment you walked in this room, my soul stood up,ā€ Eddie whispers fierce; ā€œor maybe, better said, it slid in place, like itā€™d been lost, at loose ends my whole life,ā€ and he traces Steveā€™s lips, gazing into him with the single aimed to drown forever:
ā€œBecause itā€™d been always looking for you.ā€
Steve stares at him, lips parted a little, and Eddieā€™s breath shudders, maybe he, maybe it was tooā€”
ā€œYouā€™re the writer, you have better wordsā€”ā€
But then Steve breaks, surges into Eddie and is commanding, demands Eddie with his lips, his tongue, his hand splayed on his chest and the other coiled around the nape of his neck.
To call it merely thrilling will be an insult.
ā€œI want my heartbeat to be your metronome, in the quiet moments,ā€ Steve murmurs against his swollen lips; ā€œI want it to be the tempo of your cacophony, on a stage bigger than you can see across,ā€ and then he licks those swollen lips, temptation and possession and the utmost care.
ā€œI want to be selfish with you,ā€ Steve confesses, as if it could change anything, as if itā€™s anything but desired in the whole of him; ā€œand selflessĀ forĀ you To give you everything,ā€ and he slides his open palm over eddies giddy-galloping heart, eyes flickering watch the motion of his own touch, to feel the blood-better for how Steveā€™s already living in it, racing through the chambers and the veins: ā€œkeep the most precious parts of you to myself.ā€
Eddie doesnā€™t have enough breath just then to laugh entirely, but he huffs a little, his smile half-lost to an ecstasy heā€™s never felt quite like this before as he gasps:
ā€œTold you youā€™d have the words.ā€
And Steve: he does laugh.
And Eddie knows this new road is heavenly; is soĀ right.
ā€œYour band,ā€ Steve asks suddenly, but not in the tone from before that was aimed to dissuade. Just a question.
His hand still stretched open on Eddieā€™s chest.
ā€œIā€™ll tell them the train got delayed.ā€
Steve snorts. And Eddie loves him, doesnā€™t he.
Eddieā€™s already so in love him.
ā€œThat informationā€™s public,ā€ Steve points out with a kiss to the notch at eddies clavicle.
ā€œPublic information is wrong all the time,ā€ Eddie flick a hand; heā€™s so far from even pretending to be bothered. ā€œDelays can last forever, if they need to.ā€
And Steve uses the hand on Eddieā€™s chest now to brace himself upward, to lift and hover over Eddie, to stare at him in wonder and declare:
ā€œYouĀ areĀ insane.ā€
And Eddie can only smile, broader than he thought his face could contain, like maybe finding your life for real, and falling in love for keeps, teaches your joy to stretch wider as a rule.
ā€œYeah,ā€ he breathes, and marvels a little that he can reach up and cup this manā€™s face; that he can touch to keep.
ā€œIsnā€™t itĀ incredible?

a katie gardner character study: aka my perception and interpretation of her based on her 5 lines.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
"may flowers grow in the saddest parts of you."
daughter of demeter, infj, taurus āœ§Ė–Ā°
katie had always thought of herself as ordinary. nothing less, nothing more. if you were to ask her what she's confident in, she wouldn't be able to tell you off the top of her head. maybe her possession of a green thumb, but that's intuitive for a child of demeter. they weren't meant to be warriors and she had drilled that idea into her head and for the longest time believed her fatal flaw was cowardice. it was actually her self-doubt. lack of self-confidence. not quite inferiority, because she saw herself as capable enough, just nothing special.
for what she believed she did not have, she made up for it through her leadership. she was a natural, and her siblings adored her as their head counselor, but to her, kindness was the bare minimum. you weren't able to live a fulfilling life without a kind heart, first and foremost. so she was always willing to step into everyone's shoes, execute tasks here and there to keep things in order. she has a familial presence and takes on an reliable older sister role to many younger campers. all the while she'd never recognize the discipline and consideration that she always held, tenderness was just second nature to her. (more details under the cut)
a crucial part of her journey is finding her own courage and to not only be a leader to others but yourself, one that tends to your heart. a discovery of what it truly means to be brave, and how the word does not hold the weight of an end-all-be-all definition. moreover, she grows to feel strongly about breaking the stereotype that demeter kids are meant to be weak.
because of her ability to understand and read people well, many younger campers outside her cabin come to her for guidance.
in general, she's a very intuitive person.
despite the confidence she tries to uphold at camp due to being a counselor, she had always been very shy throughout her school years. she chose to become a year-round camper when she was 14.
she tried to keep in touch and stay close with her mortal family, but they don't return the effort. for a large portion of her life, she had believed that it was her destiny to be alone.
her displays of affection are through acts of service and gift giving, particularly handcrafted gifts or homemade treats, but her personal love languages are quality time and words of affirmation.
she's a creative person with many creative outlets that she incorporates into her day to day life; such as doing her hair and decorating her room.
she enjoys the arts; particularly, painting and crafting. there aren't any rules, and she views them as a way for one to keep themself grounded.
the way she dresses herself is largely influenced by bohemian fashion and she prefers to thrift vintage pieces. she also likes to collect jewelry.
in combat, she's most confident with knives. she likes that the target can be kept in close proximity with her.
her favorite bands are fleetwood mac, the corrs, and abba!
she chose to major in zoology due to her love for animals.
--
if you've made it this far, thank you for reading my ramblings about my comfort character and my favorite girl <3 will definitely make more posts like this about her in the future!

look i don't know how true this is but i hate hate hate in my bones the way that the recent rise of purity culture has intersected with minimalism and irony poisoning
no sex. no dark themes. no "fetishization." no ornamentation. no "unrealistic" lighting and you can't see a thing. actors don't enunciate for shit. no "purple prose" or "overwriting" (it's just an adverb) or "tumblr prose" or whatever the fuck the newest term will be. sincerity is cringe, ew, why would he say that. no colour grading, because we want the big-screen blockbuster to be "realistic," BUT we will shoot it in a room with fake sunlight and slap the effects onto the scene post-production. moral fiction. moral fanfiction. "omg this is craazyyy was the creator on drugs??!!1????" about any form of creative expression. lists of reasons why this short experimental amateur one-shot is Very Bad Writing, actually. s*x smex spice adult fun time p0rn k!ll grape sewer slide.
everything is boring, nothing is real, i am fucking sick of it

Ā Leo Valdez x Child of Aphrodite!reader
A/N: I havenā€™t got much to say this time, just a reminder that requests are open and will remain this way for some weeks at the very least:))
Warning: absolutely none (maybe some swearing? But like, two bad words), just pure fluff. Also, reader uses female pronouns
Tumblr media
It was kind of against your destiny to fall in love: Aphrodite is bound to never return Hephaestusā€™ love, so that theyā€™re stuck in a loveless marriage. With the two of you, itā€™s the total opposite
The exact same MOMENT you see the boy in camp, disheveled look, face covered in machine oil and dust, youā€™re, absolutely smitten
Itā€™s the classical ā€œshe fell first, he fell harderā€ type of trope
He notices you pretty early on too, but he doesnā€™t even try to approach you at first
I mean, no way that the prettiest child of Aphrodite could ever even look into his direction, youā€™re wayyyy over his league
It takes Piperā€™s help to start things up, when she accidentally stumbles upon Leo while she was taking a walk around camp. ā€œOh how rude of me. Y/N, this is my best friend, Leoā€
It would be embarrassing to write down just how much heā€™s stumbled on his words the first time the two of you talked, just because of how he was absolutely captured by your godly beauty
He comes to find that youā€™re also a lot more than youā€™re looks: youā€™re funny, smart, clever, strong as fuck, and one of the best friends Leo has ever known
It doesnā€™t take long for him to realize that heā€™s completely and irrevocably in love with you, but oh boy how long does it take him to confess it to you
He had prepared this big, fancy plan to take you by the beach, with candles all around, a circle of rose petals and in the center of it a picnic filled with all of your favorite foods waiting to be devoured
Too bad he didnā€™t check the weather that morning, or he wouldā€™ve seen that a storm was expected right on that evening. He mightā€™ve asked for Percyā€™s or Jasonā€™s help too, maybe they couldā€™ve done some big-god shit to prevent the rain
Nevertheless, you both found yourself soaked wet, standing by a line of extinguished candles, the petals long gone with the wind, and the food watered down to a soup
He wanted to drown himself in the sea right then and there, but he was quickly stopped by your laugh coming from behind him
Oh gods, where you making fun of him? Did you figure out what his intentions were? It mustā€™ve been it, I mean, how could you ever want to have anything to do with him other than simple friendship, heā€™s been so stupid so reckles-
His track of thoughts was interrupted by your hands grabbing the collar of his shirt and pulling him in for a loving kiss, your skilled lips so soft and comforting against his much inexperienced ones
ā€œYou couldā€™ve just told me you liked me at Camp, you know.ā€
ā€œWait, was it that simple?ā€
You laughed again shaking your head at his cluelessness, and he swore the sound of your laugh couldā€™ve been the only thing he needed to live from that moment on
Okay no maybe food too, but you get the idea
You spend most of the time chilling in cabin 9 while he works on his projects, chilling in his bed or peaking at what he was doing
He definitely calls you dove for obvious reasons
Best believe that as soon as you guys are a thing all his flirting with every girl that moves is OVER my boy does not come from the streets heā€™s a loyal mf
After the curfew you usually sneak out to chill in some secluded area in the forest, and cuddle for hours in the moonlight
And whenever it rains, you waste no time to go at the beach and dance in the rain, reminiscing about the day you two got together
Oh, and get ready to see Leo as an emotional wreck anytime one of you is on a quest, when heā€™s unable to text you or hear anything from you for days or even WEEKS
Heā€™s sure thatā€™s worse than Prometheusā€™ destiny
Overall itā€™s like a golden retriever - siamese cat relationship, 10/10 would recommend

Magic is real. It's all around us. It's in the fog, in the grass, in the trees.

Sobs I'm still thinking about the wasted potential of Daisy's powers. Like it'd be one thing if they were just seismic but they're vibrational. Do you realize how overpowered that is?? Think of all the possibilities!! Temperature manipulation, matter shifting, intangibility, sound waves, atomization (or even the inverse!!), et cetera et cetera. Like they're borderline unlimited if you think about it the right way and the show literally just uses them for brute force beams and the occasional earthquake.

When I say Iā€™m chronically offline no one tends to believe me. This was previously expressed by an old manager of mine, a man in his mid thirties. About an hour later he had to explain to me what hawk tuah ment. I think he believed me after that.
