In my head the crows don’t have that big of a hight difference. Except for nej and Jesper.

The hight ranking in my head is:

Jesper, Matthias, Nina, Kaz, Wylan and Inej.

Nina and Kaz are actually the same height, but because of his limp Nina is visually taller (like a few cm taller).

Jesper and Matthias don’t actually have that big of a hight difference, Jesper is like 5cm taller and Matthias always hunches over ever so slightly, which makes Jes look even taller compared to him.

Wylan and Inej are also close in hight, but Inej wears a lot of black which makes her look smaller, and her shoes are pretty much sole-less, while Wy wears shoes with such big sole it almost looks like a platform. Wylan also does everything he can to look taller, like ruffling his hair to make it stand up, always have a perfect posture, ext. which makes their 3-5cm difference seem like a head difference.

Nina, Kaz and Matthias don’t have a big hight difference, Wylan is a bit shorter that Kaz and Nina, but it’s only noticeable if someone points it out. Inej and Jesper however…. Jes is twice her height. She’s not even tall enough for him to use her head as an arm stand.

Do you think Sevika didn’t have such a hard time carrying Isha with just one arm in ep4 because she had to drag around Jinx/Powder when she was younger?

Dear Otto,

I wonder if this letter will reach you.

When I first woke up I was alone, and I wasn't in the hospital, I was in another one of my dreams. I was in a mansion, dark and gloomy, there weren’t any kids here. At least at first.

Although I was alone in the room, I heard noises coming from the door. Looking around I saw an opening in the wall a few feet away, I just needed to climb up the drawers of a closet that stood near me. As it turned out it wasn’t just an opening - it was a ventilation shaft. I crawled forward for I don’t know how long, but when I finally got out I was suddenly standing on a ledge. It was a narrow wooden plank, that could’ve been a shelf if it wasn’t so high up, and it was covered in dust. While looking around for a way to climb back down to the floor I saw another opening, but it was much lower than mine. Then suddenly I realized what caught my attention in that vent, it was the movement. There was someone in there.

Then I saw more of this person, and she was… odd. She wasn’t like any of the other kids I saw here - dull colored, sad, hair usually short and greasy - but bright and radiating with energy and determination. I guess that was what ticked me off, she was too different, and usually in Nowhere different means danger. It felt like alarm bells were going of inside my head, and I knew - the only way to stop them would be to run.

Only later, when I managed to catch my breath, I started thinking about that girl. I thought about her braided hair, and her raincoat. It reminded me of the sun, or maybe a dandelion, a bright yellow stain on the wall. I thought about how warm it must be, something my own asylum rags could never compare to.

Have you ever thought about it? How everyone in there was always dressed so light? Imagine if there was a fire and you’d need to lead everyone outside. We’d freeze to death. Would you or the guards give us your jackets? Or would you rather stay warm yourself‘s while we suffer?

Although we had crossed paths many times during my time in the Mansion, I had never mustered up the courage to talk to her or even shout to her to ask for a name. Each and every one of our interactions consisted of my seeing her and running as fast as I could, in fear she would call for one of the creatures roaming those halls. I only found out her name closer to the end.

She had spoken to the mistress of the house - a small girl, dressed all in white, with clean, tight curls in her hair (you see now, Otto, why unusual is a bad omen in here? Of course you don’t. I had asked too soon) - and had told her the name to call her. I thought I would faint when I heard it. I couldn’t believe it. The one who is the reason for my imprisonment in this realm and is the cause for all my suffering, is standing there, talking to one of the creatures, like it’s any other day.

I had decided to run, but it had turned out to be my fatal mistake…

At that moment I wished I hadn’t ran when I first saw her.

She helped me, and I tried to help her.

But I didn’t know the cliff would crumble under her feet.

I saw her drown, Otto. Your Cece.

Noone

Re-blog this if:

- you’re gay - can read - support gay people - want to hold a match between your fingers as you wander the halls of an ancient castle because it’s your only source of light amidst the ghosts of people long past - are an antelope - or want a chocolate bar.

No one will know which applies.

“All is hell well in the Afton family,”

this is a redraw of a 7 year old piece of mine, this time with the found-family Aftons too. crazy to think of how much my designs and the AU in general have changed over the years.

Sometimes social queues feel like an act.

For me the best interpretation of them is this:

Imagine you walk into a classroom, and greet your teacher, but then you suddenly realize that your teacher is a crocodile. And no one else acknowledges it. Not even him. Everyone, including him, acts like he’s a human. And you realize that you need to do so as well, because if you don’t people will look at you like you are the crocodile.

And so you must act just like everybody else does - you have to call the crocodile 'teacher' or 'Mr. smith'; in conversations with classmates you have to act like you see the same thing they do, despite not fully believing that they don't actually see the crocodile; you can't tell your parents about it; you can't ask your teacher about his life as a crocodile, because even he believes he is human.

At the end of the day, it is exhausting.

Actual things that happen in the 1897 Dracula novel, without context:

A character has ominous nightmares and attributes them to eating too much paprika

Dracula first appears wearing a fake beard

The person he was trying to fool with the fake beard immediately realizes Dracula and Beard Guy are the same man, due to both having really firm handshakes

We are told parrots are immortal unless fatally wounded

A Texan cowboy opens fire on a bat flitting around a window, and lodges a bullet in the wall of an occupied room

A woman is called a polyandrist for receiving blood transfusions from multiple men

An incorrectly addressed telegram leads to two deaths, multiple druggings, and several children being assaulted

Dracula, while trying to maintain a low profile, takes a lovely trip to the zoo and freaks out the animals so badly that he gets mentioned in a newspaper article

The one character who knows anything about vampires spends a good two-thirds of the book refusing to talk about vampires

Dracula went to Satan's Witchcraft Academy and somehow this is only brought up in two throwaway lines

A character gets stuck inside a circle of communion wafer crumbs

A major plot point of the book is Dracula (who was said to be a brilliant scholar and has the strength of twenty mortal men) realizing he can move boxes without human help

Someone is referred to as "manifestly a prig of the first water"

Two characters have a hobby of reading train schedules

A hospital lets a mental patient escape to see what will happen

A character starts vomiting up feathers from eating whole birds

A doctor refuses to give a medical diagnosis and instead makes a speech about growing corn

Dracula impersonates another character just by wearing the same clothes, despite being taller and visibly much older. This deception is successful.

A character "cleans" a room by eating all the insects in it

Suddenly: rats. Thousands of them.

The heroes progress in their efforts through "the wonderful power of money," i.e., bribery

Dracula has three other vampires in his castle. Their relation to him is never explained, nor are any of them named.

A character insists his salvation depends on having a pet cat

Dracula is thwarted by flowers on more than one occasion

A group of vampires stand in the hall outside a man's bedroom, talking loudly about their plans to eat him. When he comes to the door to confront them, they run away laughing

Dracula wears an unfashionable hat and gets roasted for it

A group of Romanians encounter a disheveled, shouting man and, "seeing from his violent demeanour that he was English, they [give] him a ticket for the furthest station on the way thither that the train reached."

A boat crashes due to Dracula having the munchies

A wolf is thrown through a window and immediately runs off, confused and covered in glass

Dracula makes a bed

Why not? It could be related to the gods nature, like Aphrodite has fewer sons then daughters, I also hc that he has way more kids then we see bc most of them die before getting to camp.

I think it’s 30d/70s and daughters are first to die, or get stolen on the street. Ares kids have a thing when they make everyone around them angry and violent, so some get killed by parents/stepparents in early childhood the rest get kicked out at around 5-8 and those who don’t get stolen or killed on the streets get to camp which is like 30% of his kids, and daughters are the first ones to die

Ares cabin are the people new campers expect to say shit like "is it the time of the month?" when try see a girl mad

In reality they are the ones who will beat you up if they hear you say that, and there's a reason for that.

Many many years ago there was an incident that older campers still tell to the newcomers like a boogeyman story.

The counselor for ares at the time was 16 and incompetent. Clarrise was 10 and angry. She was the first girl in the ares cabin in 30 years and the guy had no experience with girls, so his first idea of interaction was to tell her to calm down and if she's on her period to go and wait it out, Clarrise’s reaction was.... Unexpected.

She kicked him in between the legs, hit his head against the wall a few times, grabbed him by his hair and proceeded to drag him through camp to the big house where she threw him at Mr.D’s feet and told him to explain to “that sexist excuse for a child of ares how women's bodies work” or she would “sacrifice him in the most brutal way possible in the middle of the dining pavilion.”

The guy apologized to her later and was the first person in the cabin she actually befriended.

She’s the only one named, and all others that appear from other pov’s have something that shows it’s her. Her being the only girl also makes sense because of her parentage and how PJO and pop culture ares is made to look like a sexist, and it fits into a lot of stuff she says, like the chariot not being driven by a girl in a long time, or ares saying ’your brothers’ instead of siblings in SOM
