At some point "fanfic can be as good as professional writing" became "fanfic should be as good as professional writing" and that's caused major damage to fandom spaces.

I truly hate the word "unalive." There are so many other euphemisms that fictional Italian mobsters worked so hard to provide you with and you just ignore them.

Why do we like things? Like, genuinely… why? Cause I know I like Percy Jackson and Star Wars and Taylor Swift and books and the color pink. But I cannot for the life of me articulate why I like those things. I just do.

My mom asked me (after my hundredth Taylor merch order arrived) why I like her and my answer was that I like her music. But WHY??? Why do I like her music? How am I supposed to know why these things bring me joy?

Okay but force ghosts hanging out with Leia and Luke arrives and is like, “Hey Leia this is the guy I was talking about” and a man removes his helmet and says, “Hi, I’m Korkie Kryze” and force ghost Obi Wan is like:

And THAT is how he finds out that he and Satine made a gorgeous child all those years ago!

Force ghost Anakin is trying to comfort him like, ‘sometimes you just meet your adult kid that you didn’t know existed’ (but your friends did and didn’t tell you)

I have to commend my store manager for not seeing herself as above her own “policy”. Because she makes you feel like absolute shit if you call off due to any kind of illness, but the past few days she’s been showing up despite clearly being sick with something and sounding absolutely awful. So. Kudos to her I guess?

Dave Filoni says that Korkie Kryze is the son of Satine’s brother.

It is common opinion that this is bantha-spit.

I propose a harmonious solution.

Qui-Gon, trying to be empathetic: I sense you have come to…care greatly for the Duchess.

Obi-Wan, deflecting (aka lying through his teeth): She is like a sister to me.

Satine, narrating: And I resolved to tease him about that particular comment for the rest of our natural lives.

Just take a moment to imagine family dinners at Obi-Wan and Satine's place if nobody died and everyone was happy.

Like, on one hand you'd have Korkie and Bo-Katan. On the other, you'd have the entire Skywalker clan plus Ahsoka. Then, after the twins have grown up, add in Han and Chewbacca (and Mara Jade if we're counting Legends). And either Luke or Bo would eventually bring Din and Grogu along...

This is 100% a "we don't talk politics at the dinner table!" family. Like, they've finished all the wine by the end of the starters, there's an argument going on somewhere, gratuitous misuse of the Force occurring left right and centre, Bo and Ahsoka in the corner spilling the hottest tea in the galaxy, Anakin is freaking out that his daughter's dating a smuggler, something's probably on fire.

The newest additions to the family feel so welcomed and also slightly scared.

And Satine and Padmé just look at each other like "Yes, regrettably these are our beloved idiots."

Trials of Apollo au in which everything is the same but Apollo has braces and has to find a new orthodontist every month since he’s always on the move.

And also because Zeus wants him to suffer.

Saw this while scrolling and just had to draw it as Percy. Leo took the picture 💀

Put a finger down if one time you were at Barnes and Noble to get a book that the website said they had but you didn’t see it anywhere in the section it was supposed to be in, so instead of talking to the employees who are there to help, you have a moment of very high anxiety and just cannot fathom asking someone for help nor can you fathom allowing anyone except the cashier know what you’re purchasing (even though it’s not even something one might want to hide in the first place, like it’s pg for sure), so you place a hold on it online and wander around Barnes and Noble for the next hour until you finally get a text that it’s ready, but you have to wait like ten more minutes so they don’t know you did all this convoluted planning instead of just asking someone, and then finally you can check out and you’re so flustered you just shove everything into your membership bag and once you get in the car you think about how stupid you were being while you rearrange the books nicely and into two separate bags.

it makes me INSANE that when annabeth met percy she was a love-starved, serially abandoned child who was no one’s priority, and four years later she was percy’s tether to mortality and the only memory in his brain that a goddess couldn’t erase

[thetimetraveler24]

IM SORRY?!?!?!? WHO WAS GOING TO TELL ME ABOUT SOM DELUXE COLLECTORS EDITION????

ITS BEAUTIFUL!!!!! 😍😍

[thetimetraveler24]

Not me answering a year later…

I think Grover and Nico both asked and Percy’s internal monologue was pouting about not getting asked and getting virtually ignored in favor of Thalia.

Now we all know why Apollo didn’t want Percy driving his Sun Car.

Do it do it do it!

Has anyone written a bad batch fanfic where Omega actually does go to Echo at the end of season two so Hemlock takes Hunter and Wrecker. And then Omega and Echo are just an unhinged duo fighting to get them back? Like canonically, it’s in character for both of them to release a massive dangerous creature as a distraction, so we know they both share some of the same brain cells.

I don’t know. I feel like this would be a great fic.
