Every time I remember this I laugh so hard I cry

Sometimes it feels like everyone around me is speaking in a secret language and I'm the only one who doesn't know it.

A letter to little me.

I’m sorry.

I’m sorry that I took everything that made you happy.

I’m sorry that I went from thriving to surviving.

I’m sorry I cut off the long hair you took so much care to maintain.

I’m sorry that I cut people off that you thought would be there forever.

I’m sorry for the words you will say to others.

I’m sorry that you will mean it.

I’m sorry for what you will have to endure.

I’m sorry that you will feel alone.

I’m sorry you are alone.

I’m sorry that it will feel like the weight of the world is on your shoulders.

I’m sorry that your own thoughts, the same ones that make up characters when you play mermaids, will scare you.

I’m sorry that you will have to protect yourself while protecting everyone else.

I am sorry that you will be taken as a joke, so much so that it will become your way to cope.

I’m sorry that not even your own family will believe you until you have taken irreversible action.

I’m sorry that dad’s side of the family will never treat you as an equal.

I’m sorry that you will always be seen for just your autism.

I’m sorry that mum and dad will wave you around like a trophy they did not earn.

I’m sorry that you will have to go through what I did.

I’m sorry that nowhere is safe for you.

I’m sorry that you won’t be able to go out in public without fear for your safety.

I’m sorry that you won’t remember most of your time as a kid.

I’m sorry that you will lose anything that tied you to me.

But the main thing is I’m sorry this happened to you.

You were too young to deal with that.

You

We were too young to deal with that.

I’m sorry that you are me.

I’m sorry that I am no longer you.

Lots of love (and luck because you will need it)

The older you,

Charlie <3

The fact that Bianca di Angelo will only ever be remembered as Nico's sister, and how her character and her death was all created just to further Nico's character and arc, is just so tragic. Because the small fraction of life that we did see was her trying to escape all that. It was her trying to be more than just Nico's sister. Trying to be more than the person who takes care of Nico, trying to have her own life instead of being his caretaker, and then she immediately died. And we talk about her but only in the way she affected Nico. Even when Percy remembers her it's less about her and more about how Nico reacted when he told him that she was dead.

In life and in death Bianca tried desperately to stop her life from revolving around Nico. And then after her death for a long time everything Nico did revolved around Bianca. Morning her death, trying to exact revenge for her, trying to bring her back. Nico couldn't let go of Bianca.

On the other hand Bianca's most memorable decisions were all permanent attempts to solidify her independence. First joining the huntresses of Artemis and then choosing reincarnation. She loved her brother but she was forced to be essentially his mother when she was still a child. She wanted a chance of life without that responsibility. She wanted the chance to live for herself but she knew she would never get that and have Nico in her life at the same time.

Bianca di Angelo was her own person but she will never be remembered for that.
