“It’s never too late to start over. If you weren’t happy with yesterday, try something different today. Don’t stay stuck. Do better.”
— Andy Wootea
it’s sad there is not more “Good Uncle Zeus,” fanfictions out there.
Like, Zeus just being tired and growing more gray hairs by the minute because his nephew refuses to accept god-hood and just makes more of a mess by angering gods and becoming way to powerful.
He’s just so tired, “Poseidon, brother, I do not beg, nor do I lower myself like this, but this is a one time exception that you shall never speak of again.” He would start, “if you do not get that child of yours and give him immortality, I am going to go INSANE.”
He would take a deep breath and give Poseidon the nastiest look, one that you would give your sibling who annoys you to no end, “I’m so close to plucking that spawn up and throwing him to Hades.”
He would have literal gray hairs, as if Percy had just aged him by existing. Percy (if he knew) would find the whole thing hilarious and refuse immortality just to piss Zeus off.
He would give Poseidon a fake smile and disappear moments later, leaving Poseidon reeling from the interaction, wondering if that had just happened or if he was going insane.
i get that miles being sheltered to punk culture/ideas is an easy assumption, considering his parents' attitude towards gwen, but like. i really really want to pose to you all miles morales the graffiti artist, who's incredibly aware that his dad wouldn't defend him if he was arrested, but still believes in and makes public art. miles morales the black scholarship kid at a predominantly white school that treats him in equal turns like a snowflake, a loose cannon and a charity case, who in one of the novels gets suspended for calling out & starting a protest against his racist history teacher. miles morales who in that same novel gave his own cash to a pickpocket he had to stop after giving him a chance to surrender. miles morales who keeps getting told to shut up & back down but doesn't, even if it's "for his own good". miles morales who after being told he'd never fit into a system that should've helped him said "then fuck your system" and electrocuted the leader.
miles morales might not be punk aesthetically, but he gets it. he gets it more than a lot of so-called "punks" do.
Butterflies feeding off the tears of turtles in the Amazon. This is uncommon for the butterflies as minerals such as salt can be scarce in certain regions, so the turtles salty tears give the butterflies the nutrients they need for survival. Photog. Jeff Cremer
How much do I need to pay for someone to write a fanfic where all the big three's children grew up together and their mothers know each other and have their own chat group
Beryl: gurls Jason started floating and doesn't want to come down 😭😭😭Do you know how to get him down?
Maria: Sorry Be, my children just get buried
Sally: A snake got into Percy's crib!!!!
Marie: WHAT???!? DO SOMETHING
Sally: What the hell am I going to do with a snake corpse?
remember the scene where Percy almost let’s himself die during the whole polyblotes fight under water cause he feels guilty about akhyls and opens up to Jason and Jason’s just like yeah i get it :( So what if Percy genuinely thought this was an issue and that Jason needed help? So he hunts down Piper first and is like
Percy: You need to look out for you bf
Piper: Wait why what happened?
Percy (trying to respect Jason’s privacy): He said some pretty concerning things
Then it slowly becomes a whole thing until they all decide to stage an intervention so when Jason wakes up late and sees all their solemn looks (and the fact that he’s not the earliest to be awake for once) he’s just like
Jason: Who died
No one speaks and Jason gets more frantic until-
Percy: We’re here to help you
Jason:???
Piper: We all love you and want you to be here
Jason: wtf is going on
And then everyone turns to Percy in confusion who’s trying to avoid talking about his whole breakdown in the first place so he’s like um.. well…
That’s how Percy finds out Jason is a drama queen who exaggerates
