Writing/rereading my dissertation: omg it’s so longggggg whyyyyyyy

Looking at the word count: oh if this was a fic on ao3 I wouldn’t even glance at it because it would be too short

Hades siblings meme.

[hpandcarbs]

I like to imagine that Hades is real nice to Jason, yknow? Partly out of spite cuz he doesn't like Percy and partly to genuinely show he appreciates how well he treats Nico and looks after him. And I think that would make for some hilarious conversation like Jason goes "Yeah Hades is pretty neat I had to pop around a cemetery for a quest and he showed up out of nowhere, said he was just passing through, ended up helping me out and even bought me lunch" while Percy is just "he threw me in a dungeon once". ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

I mean we know Hades picks favorites and is capable of learning to be a better father/uncle sooooo.

Nico: Hey can I invite Will to our scheduled dinner next week?

Hades: I'm sure we can find an extra seat for him.

Nico: Can I also bring Meg?

Hades: Demeter would enjoy seeing her daughter.

Nico: Can I bring Jason?

Hades: Of course you can bring Jason.

Nico: Can I bring Per—

Hades: No.

Kayla: Hey dad, who's your favorite kid? And be honest.

Apollo: Nico.

Nico: What?

Austin: That's a surprise, I thought he'd say Meg.

Will: So did I.

Apollo: Meg laughed at me earlier when the piano cover fell shut on my hands, so she's been demoted.

Nico: I'm not even yours.

Hades: If it helps, you're my favorite too.

Nico: When the fuck did you get here?!

y’all ever read a fanfic that you cannot believe an author just wrote for free?? what an honor it is to read a piece of someone’s soul they shared out of nothing but love for a piece of media. what a privilege it is to be allowed their talent because you share an interest!!

Percy finally claiming the prophecy he doesn't want to protect a little boy who needs it. He doesn't take on the curse to save the world, he does it to save one friend. And right after Athena told him that his fatal flaw is personal loyalty...

Will Solace is actually a very bossy, reckless and controlling character but y’all aren’t ready for that conversation…

Like, even Nico was surprised at how someone could answer him BACK. The son of Hades, used to other’s getting intimidated by him and their rejection towards him, was surprised by someone actually rebelling against how he expected him to react to his command.

Just PAGES before meeting Will, Nico noted that he enjoyed seeing Dakota and the other girl intimidated by his presence. And then Will came along and told him straight in the face to piss off, he forced Nico to accompany him instead of shadow traveling and criticized him for wanting to leave camp.

THAT is what initially attracted Nico to Will. The fact that someone could stand up to him and not cower away. Nico lets Will lead him to the infirmary after the battle, he lets Will do some action instead of him attacking those Roman soldiers, he lets Will take him to Octavian. He lets. Nico di Angelo never lets people do anything with or to him.

It’s because Will insisted and basically forced himself onto Nico’s life that intrigued Nico. Because no one has acted like that with him, because no one at camp has tried to get close to him unless it is for dire help (cough Percy)

I hc they always bicker and fight as a way of flirting, but when it gets serious, Nico is the first to give in. Not just because he doesn’t like seeing Will angry, but because Will is a stubborn mf who just won’t let go of an argument.

Plus, Nico is more of an “internal fighter”, instead of wording his grudges he keeps them in him, only mumbles them (until he explodes, i.e. Bryce). Will is the opposite, he would never hold a grudge, but boy does he whine and fight about it when it comes up (this is more of a hc).

feel like every so often in therapy exes au nico will casually drop another thing from his past that would be individually worthy of going to therapy all on its own but he fully forgot to bring up til that moment and then he gets to watch arthur (his therapist) try not to say "are you fucking kidding me" out loud

HI!! CRYING

I need to KNOW THE STORY BEHIND

"gang sues will for malpractice" WHO DID THIS HAHAHA

"Saturn devours your mom" crying crying this is so fucking funny

What was the 3rd-25th wheel development 😭😭😭

I can't stop shaking this is so funny oh my god

LMAOOO no one actually sued will for malpractice, I think probably either he started med school and finally took an ethics class and was like “wait fuck” or someone else was pondering it and pointed out how fucked up that whole system was, and someone titled the gc that as a joke (it quickly got changed back, they don’t usually keep gc titles that are about specific people for very long)

Saturn Devouring Your Mom as gc title was definitely a creation of the stolls (which katie probably got grumpy about because of the original gen goddesses that got devoured demeter is the only one with kids, so someone else changed it to “let’s eat grandpa”). and Annabeth And Percy’s 3rd-25th Wheels came up as an affectionate & celebratory joke when percabeth got engaged, but someone changed the name to that and then Percy was like HEY NOW THAT’S NOT FAIR TO GROVER (who was not in this groupchat at the time, since it started out as just the wartime counselors keeping in touch) so then Annabeth changed it to Annabeth And Percy’s 4th-26th Wheels instead <3

what are your twenties if not an endless string of the ghosts of who you thought you would become

[hpandcarbs]

oh fuck *falls back into old habits* *screen fades to black* *level loading* TIP: your belief that you are incapable of changing for the better will become a self fulfilling prophecy if left unchallenged

@aidanchaser regulus in the everybody lives au

My favourite trope has to be:

I sacrificed myself to save you. I didn't plan to survive. I burnt all the bridges. I intended to break your heart with my death, but that would be all right, because I wouldn't be around to see you. I pretended that you'll mourn me for a while and move on. I convinced myself I was going down in the blaze of glory. That my deed was appreciated. That everything was going to be all right afterwards, and I didn't need to be there to see it.

But I survived. And now I have to look you in the eye. I have to pick up the pieces of the life I shattered and figure out how to put it back together. If it can be done at all.

Yalllllllll omg THIS SERIES!

So you know how it comes up often with YA series that it’s unrealistic to expect teenagers to all end up marrying the person they first fell for in high school? This fic takes that and actually fleshes it out in a real way! Adult Will and Nico, years after high school break up, finding their way to be friends (and more???) again after figuring out who they are as individuals first. The characterization and world building is unreal. It’ll make you nostalgic for your first love in a way you didn’t think possible
