@fictiondaily​ mission ii: nostalgic reads (percy jackson series by rick riordan)

athena called, “annabeth chase, my own daughter.” annabeth squeezed my arm, then walked forward and knelt at her mother’s feet.

athena smiled. “ you, my daughter, have exceeded all expectations. You have used your wits, your strength, and your courage to defend this city, and our seat of power. it has come to our attention that olympus is...well, trashed. the titan lord did much damage that will have to be repaired. we could rebuild it by magic, of course, and make it just as it was. but the gods feel that the city could be improved. we will take this as an opportunity. and you, my daughter, will design these improvements.”

annabeth looked up, stunned. “my…my lady?”

athena smiled wryly. “you are an architect, are you not? you have studied the techniques of daedalus himself. who better to redesign olympus and make it a monument that will last for another eon?”

“you mean...i can design whatever i want?”

“as your heart desires,” the goddess said. “ make us a city for the ages.”

“as long as you have plenty of statues of me,” apollo added.

“and me,” aphrodite agreed.

“hey, and me!” ares said. “big statues with huge wicked swords and—”

“all right!” athena interrupted. “she gets the point. rise, my daughter, official architect of olympus.

one last stop by casey mcquiston

“I fell in love with you the day I met you, and then I fell in love with the person you remembered you are. I got to fall in love with you twice. That’s—that’s magic. You’re the first thing I’ve believed in since—since I don’t even remember, okay, you’re—you’re movies and destiny and every stupid, impossible thing, and it’s not because of the fucking train, it’s because of you. It’s because you fight and you care and you’re always kind but never easy, and you won’t let anything take that away from you. You’re my fucking hero, Jane. I don’t care if you think you’re not one. You are.”

books read in 2022 — THE ATLAS SIX, @olivieblake

“a flaw of humanity,” said parisa, shrugging. “the compulsion to be unique, which is at war with the desire to belong to a single identifiable sameness.”

@chaptersnet event vi: rereads

“One day you’ll call me Death. For now, Wrath will do.” [...]

“Unless you’d like to call me His Royal Highness of Undeniable Desire.”

“Are you sure you’re of House Wrath? If I didn’t know better, I’d say you were general to a vacuous, shirtless battalion belonging to House Narcissism.”

It’s Christmas in Bookclub! ❧ the priory of the orange tree for @tanglemagic​

“Some truths are safest buried. Some castles best kept in the sky. There’s promise in tales that are yet to be spoken.”

[danikaquinlan]

I stand at that statue and claim the bodies whose names the world wants to forget. I claim those bodies whose names I was taught to forget. And I claim the unsung bloodlines that soak the ground beneath my feet, because I know, I just know, that if they could, they would claim me.
