Um, if Tartarus is made up of his body, and they were walking towards his heart, and went through his intestinal track.... does that mean they entered Tartarus through his butt?

Ben *eyeing Alex planting explosives*: You know you that would be a war crime, right?

Alex: Can I commit a war crime, if I myself am a war crime?

Ben: Yes.

Give me Alex Rider’s politics teacher just being absolutely...astounded by the amount of knowledge this kid has on not only the socio-economic climate of literally every freaking country but the most freakishly good instincts of how each new politician that comes along is going to fare. It’s at the point he now has a secret cabinet of sticky notes on Alex’s off hand comments of each new public figure because God Dammit he always turns out to be right.

Give me Alex’s Riders politics teacher who stands up for him against others in the staff room because his essays provide the freshest viewpoints he’s seen in over 20 years. Ethics, politics, morality, social structures, negotiations, public figures, military influences and ulterior motivators; Alex Rider handles each topic with a grace and insight he hasn’t seen since university. Quite frankly he doesn’t know whether to be impressed or terrified. He settles on curious.

Give me Alex Rider’s politics teacher who’s family served in the army, who recognises the shadows of war in those dark brown eyes even if he can never understand why. The only one that seems to notice that seeing Alex’s controlled, efficient steps through a boisterous crowd of school children is like watching a ballet dancer glide through a swarm of drunk seagulls.

Give me Alex Rider’s politics teacher who let’s the poor kid take a nap in class or snack when he wants to (partly because 50% of the time he looks ready to drop) but mostly because deep down they both know there’s nothing that he can teach him here. Alex had an already pretty unusual and impressive grasp of foreign affairs before his uncle died and in the years since then? Well, he’s pretty sure Alex speaks more languages fluently than he has fingers.

Give me Alex Rider’s politics teacher whose subject gives him more of a glimpse into his talents than most people are allowed to see; who takes one good look at his extra little piece of the puzzle and thinks yeah. This kid is brilliant.

The only time I truly appreciated Rick’s portrayal of Piper was when she and Annabeth were in those caves fighting against the children of Ares and she was like “chase the emotion, don’t run away from it” because that was super cool. THAT’S a cool representation of Aphrodite that I can get behind, of focusing on emotion, on chasing one’s feelings and emotions in order to get the most experience from life. Wanting to feel everything because why live a life where you don’t feel anything?

Rant about the Potential of Piper McLean

Okay, as much as I love Rick, he has a bad habit of placing stereotypes in his book. Like instantly villainizing Drew Tanaka as a “popular girl with perfect makeup”. I feel like he could have made Piper a daughter of Aphrodite who corrected the mistake he made of stereotyping the children of Aphrodite in PJO. In PJO, he made them airheads who just talked about boys all the time (like silena who betrayed camp half blood at first because Luke was attractive?). Piper could have been such a cool character, who was half cherokee, who was beautiful, who wore makeup because it made her confident, who wore makeup in cool ways because she could change her eye color depending on the eye shadow or the reflection of the clothes she wore. She could have had such a cool aesthetic and been such a cool person who used her image, her confidence as a show of beauty. She could have been an upbeat character who spreads love to whoever she can, and also seeks the attention of boys to have a companion, rather than just to have a hot boyfriend.

I collected a bunch of "haha I don't have 2020 vision" "oh God not like that" posts

You think Anthony Horowitz was trying to say something by having his latest Alex Rider villain saying he wanted to “Make Britain Great Again”?

Yeah me neither...

I love when celebrities are like smoldering, blue stealing, and like trying to look serious and hot for photos on the variously colored carpets...

And then their best friend joins them and they can’t help but smile 😊 it’s honestly the cutest

You create a murder mystery with a very specific clue

Has anyone noticed that July, August, September, October, and November’s initials spell the name Jason?

How come Tony Stark wasn’t in his notebook? I know Tony’s gone, but it’s weird he was at the funeral. Also, I think it was strange that he didn’t try to make amends to Stark’s family for that...

The only reason I rewatch Knives Out is to watch Chris Evans say “eat shit” like 7 times in a soft cable knit sweater
