I just started watching Young Justice season 2 and while I am enjoying it, I keep crashing out over Tim's hair because WHERE IS IT ALL?? I need comics now to recover from boring-hair Tim but I don't have the money to get any comics 😭

[shadowywitchdestiny]

So, um, my brain went a bit too far with the Tim Drake thing and decided to make a crazy person board (Idk if that's actually what they're called but it's what I call them lol, it's just one of those boards with all the red string and stuff pinned to a board) as a visual representation of how he connected the dots of the whole Dick Grayson being Robin thing because of course I have to go over the top with this and I can't jist do this on my phone or try and look something up. Wish me luck and send help, I've already tried drawing something for this and it did not turn out well so I'm using Pinterest for any other pictures

This, I'm okay with the noise of the plates clanking against eachother but not when I can also hear people talking, the fridge humming (gods, I hate the fridge humming), CARS DRIVING BY, and everything else making noise, all over the top of my music

Hehe I'm writing this down for my sad gay musical. Prepare to suffer in like a decade when I finally get around to making it

To this day,

"if she's your girl then why is her leitmotif part of my theme" "to highlight the tragedy of how she'll never love you back"

is one of the most brutal pieces of play banter that I've read on this website. One of those shitposts that keep coming back to you. Damn.

This, nudity isn't inherently sexual, it's people that make it sexual and ruin stuff for everyone

you'd think "nudity on its own is not taboo in many cultures of the world" is essential trivia that everyone encounters by the age of ten, which informs people how taboos are non-rigid social constructs. but no, every day you will meet people containing a lifetime of informed opinions and moral frameworks, whose world views would be shattered by telling them "nudity on its own is not taboo in many cultures of the world"

I've been getting into DC recently and all I can think of when I hear/think about that one song that goes, "Sometimes people leave you halfway through the wood, do not let it grieve you, no one leaves for good,"(I forgot the name lol) is Jason Todd and I have no idea if it's in an angsty way or a, "This is hilarious," way

Demigods being called by their parent's Epithets

Demigods being called by their parent's Epithets

Demigods being called by their parent's Epithets

For some, like Jason who is named Ivppiter Tonans (Thundering Jove) by 'allies' and enemies alike, both in reverence and in horror and Annabeth who is titled Makhanitis (Deviser, Contriver) for her plans, it is an honour.

For others, like Luke who is praised with 'Promakhos' (the Champion) and Eriounês (Luck-bringing) by his 'comrades' and hears 'Klepsiphrôn' (Deceiver, Dissembler*) and Phêlêtês (Thief, Robber) hissed bitterly by 'enemies', it is a bitter, annoying thing that he cant quite seem to get rid of.

For Nico who hears Aidôneus* (Unseen one) hissed by monsters right before he steps out of the shadows unseen and strikes them down and Percy who is called Ennosigaios (earth-shaker) in pure dread by monsters after his feat at Mount Saint Helens was spread around.

...

It is a reminder of their strength and power (derogatory). It is not a positive thing.

*Dissembler — someone who hides their real feelings, intentions or true facts :)

*technically not a epithet but an alternate name but shhh. There arent many titles I could find of Hades.

me stepping outside and feeling the light stab my eyes like a hundred knives: huh. apollo inspo *taking notes* I bet this but x100 and through the whole body and soul is how it feels to be near him when he's angry at you

No one:

Me on a random Thursday: You know what, Artemis Fowl gives me he/they vibes

Im convinced Apollo is actually talented at literally everything, it's just that in Toa he's somehow convinced himself that he's bad at everything.

Meg humbles him cause she knows anyone with that much talent and skill would have a giant ego. Most of the time.

She doesn't fully realize he freaking hates himself.

That's my hc that's basically at least half canon.

Apollo occasionally sniffing/smelling people is one of those random character quirks that kills me.

If its true that memories are strongly paired with scents, could it be that Apollo is just building a mental portfolio of how all of his loved ones smell so he’ll remember them more vividly two centuries from now? Possibly.

Could he also just be sniffing people because he’s a weird little freak? Mayhaps.

Peak character.

it really means so much to me that percy's first instinct with bessie the ophiotaurus was to protect, while thalia's first instinct when in contact with bessie was temptation and power.

5 Positive RRverse Hermes Facts.

He respects mortals’ autonomy and decision making. Hermes (canonically in the books at least) respects others’ choices and free will even when he doesn’t personally agree with their actions, words, and desires. He doesn’t want May Castellan to pursue the Oracle role but he also doesn’t threaten her or coerce her to change her mind. He also is willing to peacefully talk with Percy after he’s confused by Percy’s refusal of immortality. No manipulation just a friendly talk between two individuals. Also grants Luke’s request for a quest even when it makes him feel deeply uncomfortable.

His loyalty is one of his greatest strengths but also one of his most fatal weaknesses. Hermes’ loyalty appears when he discusses family with Percy. When he fears for George and Martha’s safety when they’re kidnapped. When he continues to visit May and makes sure she keeps her home, gets disability benefits and checks, and that she continues with her medical care through paperwork and divine intervention.

He is humble regarding his status as an Olympian. Doesn’t smite Luke for his backhanded comments regarding him. Can talk with Percy and other demigods casually. Just rarely loses his cool compared to most of the other gods we meet (aside from Apollo, Hephaestus, Artemis, and Iris).

He perseveres and stays strong despite his difficult personal situation. Hermes is often remembered as Zeus’ right hand messenger. Kind of how a highly educated scribe would be to a pharaoh since they were rare then. His worship and the belief he receives from his followers in PJO is very tied into his messenger duties (almost exclusively). In PJO, the gods can fade if they no longer have mortals believing in them. Forcing Hermes to continually promote a role in which he gets abused and neglected emotionally by much of his family so he can continue to be existing. With his workload to boot, it’s astounding that he hasn’t cracked yet.

He appreciates the simple things. This is implied in canon but Hermes really enjoys simple pleasures. A cold can of coke, a nice evening watching the ocean on the beach, and easygoing conversations seem to be things that he really enjoys.

Someone please write an AU fic like this I'm begging 🙏

The Hidden Oracle has the possibility to be a psychological horror given the many destabilizing things the books contains. The SUN GOD turned mortal,without much powers,for an indefinite period? The oracles got captured and there is a sentient one,calling you and attracting you in very dangerous places? Emperors of a forgotten past are back because they want to be gods? Having memory problems because your mortal brain can't remember almost anything? Doing a run in the Labyrinth without knowing where you are going (and isn't safe)?? Ending in the worst place you could ever end,with your enemy(ies) close to you? Having your children being kidnapped from you and almost put on fire in front of you? Being tormented by the thought of dryads,only to watch how they sacrifice themselves to help you out?

Half of this is like the start of an apocalypse.

Imagine a TOA AU where its not just Apollo falling from Olympus for Octavian

But Hermes too for Luke.

Everything else is the same but Hermes is also mortal, how much would change? Like the enemies stay the same, Meg 'enslaves' them both but what would change?

it's like this

apollo, taking deep breaths: hermes is so fucking annoying lately but I'm being so good about it, if you don't have anything good to say don't say anything at all, if I talk rn I'll say things I'll regret, just ignore him

hermes crying, screaming, throwing up, slinging even more antagonistically unhinged statements: aaaasfyyujjgeeeuuuueee look at me damn it LOO̵̠̤̖̯̹͚̲̒̿̄̈Ḱ̴̛̥̙̖̍̓̇̈̽̀̕͠ ̷̨̛̛̠̫͎̣̖̗̥̠̤̃̋̅̄͋̔͗̉̉̂̕͘Ả̶͎̂̎̉̓̐͠T̴͉̟͗͐̾͒͑͆͝͝ ̷͈͕̱̻̺̃̍͋͗͐̆́̐́͐̽̕͝M̴̮̟̈́͒̉͐͘Ę̶̡͈̯̆́
