What ever you do don't think about Percy reading Estelle a little kid version of 'The Odyssey' because that's what Sally read to him but he doesn't want to scare her. Don't imagine Sally looking on with guilt in her eyes cus she HAD to read him the real one so he knew what to expect. Don't think about Sally looking down on her little girl with tears in her eyes cus she doesn't need to worry about snakes in her bed or teachers being Cyclopes. Don't think of Sally seeing Estelle with Paul and having to leave the room cus when Percy was that age they had Gabe. Don't think of the unimaginable guilt that Sally must feel for being relieved that Estelle's biggest battle at 16, is her Dad being her teacher. And whatever you do don't think about Percy feeling like an outsider in his own family even though he gets constantly reassured that he's part of it and loved.

The big three kids will likely be one of the last ones i'll do in my Demigods meet their godly siblings series, but i'm just realizing
HOW THE FUCK DO I DO HADES KIDS?
like we know Melinoe exists in pjo but what about Zagreus? how would Zagreus work in pjo even if he isn't dionysus.
Are the furies Hades's kids in pjo? That'd be fucking hilarious tbh
Nico: Hey Percy, meet my big sister, Alecto
Percy: Your what

i’m still thinking about that post about how Gramore hunts but doesn’t use everything she kills. And I’m thinking about how the other witches are so fucked up over the witch of the world’s heart and so think everything she does is weak. And I’M SAYING get yourself some enemies that hate you so much they ruin their own lives ambiently, not even in the attempt to screw with you. They hate you so much, they think you’re so cringe, they don’t ever want to do what you do, and what you do is bathe, cook, and have access to useful cover from the elements. Like they’re gonna get tetanus, rabies, AND lyme disease trying to come for you.
Whoa WHOA WHOA! maybe Ame’s ambient aura IS like home and a warm bowl of soup, but if you roll a fierce enough crit on that you fucking HATE soup. most people wouldn’t even roll, they’d just say “hey! Soup!”

just finished the wyll romance in game
i knew he had no content but DAMN he has NO CONTENT!!!!!!!!!!! fucking MIZORA wants to fuck me more than he does. the proposal scene is incredibly cute i loved it but DAMN was that it ?? also i fucking hate how the romance is linked to saving his stupid dad fuck you ulder. it should be linked to finishing the wyrmway quest. other companions stories were so much more impactful in act 3 his is so flat.
edit i forgot to say they make.him becoming duke seem like the bad choice cause it would turn wyll power hungry or something???????? that really feels like them pushing to moralize something that really isnt. like that idk. like WHEN has wyll EVER been enticed by power he SAW what happened to astarion. ALSO his shit is so bugged i had to make that decision twice and then they acted like his dad was dead?? mcscuse me. his shit is so buggy. ALSO ALSO the choice for him to become duke or blade of avernus shouldnt be presented as the moral choice idk why they even did that. wyll should be able to choose on his own when asked to save himself or his father. like THAT is what's clearly a good and a bad choice. and u know how every companion chooses the good choice when asked on their own. yeah. that wouldve been so simple to do idek why they made his whole act 3 quest tie to his father and the wyrmway was secondary.

I'm really trying to understand. I know Joshua does take good pics but some of his pics are awful and they still get so much praise. I'm seeing comments "I know the pic is blurry but it fits Louis' tour aesthetics". Seriously? Is that the excuse now? "This pic looks like shit but it fits Louis' tour aesthetics". Since that pic Harry posted on IG that was super super blurry, which I think he was trying to make a point with. That fans don't control him. I thought Lloyd's pics have got better since. They show more of the audience. I really like his recent pics that show Harry and the audience. They give a vintage postcard kind of feel. Old school. But he's still being trashed as ever. Sometimes I'll see a pic and think... that's not that bad so surely they won't be trashing that. But they will be, always are. He can't do any right. But Joshua can't do any wrong. I think it could be partly because Joshua talks to the fans on twitter. So they feel 'closer' to him. They're still incredibly bitter about the iHeart? tour photography award going to Lloyd, while also saying that it means nothing. If it means nothing then why still so bitter? Why the desperate push to vote for Joshua? They say that Lloyd only won the award because of Harries. Well yes. If Joshua won the award it would be because of Louies and Larries. That's how fan voted awards go. If anyone does like Lloyd's pics they get insulted for having bad taste. They really despise Lloyd and they just don't stop complaining about him. Why is it always like this? That everyone Harry works with is hated by the fandom and everyone Louis works with is loved?
I'm sitting here, nodding my head as I read this like a goddamned kitsch toy dog on the dashboard of someone's bitchin' Camaro because yeah, YEAH. I have some thoughts about it that I'm sure I'm not all that articulate about, so I'll take it to the tags and let your ask just shine up here, uninterrupted yet fully appreciated

Never have i felt rage worse than when i learned carrie fisher was sent to a fat farm, on the demand of fox studio executivess who put it as condition to have her cast cause they insisted on someone thinner (hi casting practices are deeply evil in fatphobic transphobic and racist ways- and that has only mildly improved since the fucking 70s) prior to filming a new hope, to lose 10 pounds, which was far from an exceptional practice in the film industry at the time. And lucas told it in the film bonuses with no shame or apology, they even interviewed carrie about it as if that was some fun anecdote-fuck lucasfilm all the way off for that. And to this day dieting for roles in blockbusters still is the norm (remember that anecdote of her telling john boyega to go break his diet and eat an energy bar from her fridge on the set of the sequels 30 years later ? we progress so fucking slowly)
In general Hollywood obsession/morbid fascination with actors modifying their weight to unhealthy degrees for roles sucks and so does the way journalism and the audience feed the mythos and reward those movies with press and promo about it (still haunted by that star trek press tour where benebitch cabbagepatch was asked continously about dieting for a scene not even in the movie, meanwhile the female actress who had a gratuitous scene in underwear it was just a normal thing, hello gender inequality). anyways as soon as i hear an actor had to diet i lose interest in ever paying for the media. no movie or series is worth the human suffering and its prevalence is yet another symptom of the dishonesty of art under capitalism
