Honest thought that I think some people might not be ready for.

The most likely to become a god is not Percy, it’s Nico.

Percy is definitely up there and right after Nico but I’m talking about most likely.

There is a few reasons for this actually. Some are for the same reasons as Percy, he’s extremely strong and had a great role in the wars. He is cherished by his godly parent, honestly he literally has his own room in the underworld and it’s his safe place.

But on top of that he’s also really important to the underworld. From what I know he’s always doing work for Hades and took that ghost dudes place as one of the judges so is really important to structure of the underworld. Yes he could just die and take on that role but it makes more sense for him to become a god because of the reasons stated and his value to the pantheon.

Anyway that’s all, Percy is definitely a close second but I think Nico is more likely to become a god.

non-writers will never understand the mental illness of writing an entire conversation in your head while doing dishes and then forgetting every word the second you open a blank doc

it’s just hard not to think about the fact that in 1915, JRR Tolkien went to war not with but certainly in the same army and many of the same battles as his 3 best school friends, all nicely upper class young men who had never known much loss, and only he and one other came back alive - and a couple decades later, he wrote a book in which 3 nicely upper class young men (and one very excellent gardener) who have never known much loss go to war together, or at least they start out together, and they all come home alive. (Though one cannot bear it, and does not stay.)

People are so much more sad, and desparate, and lonely than you think. I have had three incidents in the last four months were a technician I was working with was being either dangerously unfocused (we work with high voltage), or just flat out angry with their coworkers, and every time when I just pulled them aside to say hey, this isn't you, you're nice, and you're competent, so something must be up - what can I do to help - they have responded by bursting into tears. One guy was struggling to get his wife moved into a care home, one guy just got served divorce papers, and the other hadn't slept a wink the night before because his daughter had the pukes.

I haven't spent my whole life responding to people being rude, or stupid, or dangerous with knee jerk compassion. It's a new habit. The first time I did that as the lead for my lab, it was because the guy genuinely was so good natured that I knew something had to be off. But the other two times were just me going, alright, lets see if it always goes this well, and so far, it has. I'm almost 30, and I just figured out that the #1 reason people are shitty are because they are going through shit.

I don't think you have, like, a moral obligation to respond to people being jerks with knee jerk compassion. But it has made my life so much easier the last four months that I would recommend trying. For your own sake. Please.

(I'll step off my soapbox now. Enjoy your Sunday.)
