I'd Like To Think That As Percy Grows Older, He Starts Resembling Poseidon Way More Than Anyone Expects.

I'd like to think that as Percy grows older, he starts resembling Poseidon way more than anyone expects.

And not today, modern, chill fisherman Poseidon, we're talking ancient Greek God Poseidon. This also includes some...unique features.

Sharp teeth, sometimes when he gets agitated and frustrated his irises become sharper and thinner. His hair gets pretty dang long, going to the middle of his back; kinda symbolic of the ocean with waves and curls. (Which Annabeth loves braiding or playing with. Percy does not cut his hair.)

One time he's on a quest for 3 months and is not in any position to shave, so he is rocking a beard while visiting Olympus to give back whatever item the gods need at the time.

Suffice it to say that Apollo has a heart attack, Zeus nearly faints on the spot, Hermes is sitting in a corner holding up a cross and reciting the entirety of the Bible, Athena has Athens flashbacks and Ares re-evaluates his entire life in two consecutive minutes.

Poseidon is incredibly proud.

I also have a headcanon that the more a demigod takes after their godly parent, the more it pleases said godly parent.

It's like a claim on the kid, in a way to tell the other gods that "this is my kid, mine. Look at him and all the ways he resembles me."

So Poseidon is watching Zeus have a midlife crisis while he's giggling and kicking his feet. He tells Percy to definitely keep the beard.

i came across this quote by jeffrey eugenides, "Can you see me? All of me? Probably not. No one ever really has." and my thoughts immediately went straight to huaisang. that mask of his is so well crafted that i don't think even wwx has truly seen through it. even in the cloud recesses, huaisang was seen as basically the coward and slacker, and wwx probably didnt think much about who he actually was, aaaaaaaaaand now im sad. great. because its likely after canon no one trusted him enough to actually get to know him, and thinking of nhs living his entire life with no one understanding him truly...

Rebuilding Live: A Mother's Plea for Hope and Safety in Gaza

I'm Nour Alanqar, and reaching out to you during a time of unimaginable hardship. I am 26 years old, married to Ashraf Ismail, who is 32, and together we have three beautiful children: Hussein, 6, Rajaa, 5, and Youssef, just 10 months old. Our lives have been turned upside down by the devastating war in Gaza, and we desperately need your help.

•My daughter Rajaa is a radiant beam of sunshine, bringing boundless joy, warmth, and love to everyone she meets.

On a dark night at the beginning of the war, our area was subjected to massive bombing. The explosions reached our home, forcing us to flee into the night, running amidst periodic explosions and searching for survival. We made our way to southern Gaza by morning, seeking refuge in Rafah.

•This is our home, filled with our memories and moments of joy and happiness, now reduced to rubble. Its destruction shattered our hearts.

In Rafah, we found shelter in a crowded warehouse filled with strangers, all of us struggling to find basic necessities like food, water, safety, and cleanliness. Despite these challenges, we were again hit by direct bombardment. My husband was injured in the shoulder, and the scene around us was filled with blood and corpses. The cries of my children in those moments still echo in my head.

•A fragment of what it once was, and now, what it has become.

We moved several times to places described as safe, only to face new tragedies. During this period, my precious daughter Raja contracted hepatitis, adding to our suffering.

It was incredibly difficult for me to endure these disasters, especially as I was in the process of giving birth. Youssef was deprived of proper breastfeeding and the necessary nutrition for his age. Hussein's right to education and a safe childhood have been cruelly taken from him.

•My baby Youssef, whom I clung to throughout the war, running with him through the rubble of shattered homes to escape.

•At an age when Hussein should have been enjoying his childhood, all his rights were taken away from him.

Our situation is dire, and we need your support to rebuild our lives and provide a future for our children. Your kindness and generosity can make a profound difference. Your contributions will help us secure safe shelter, access to medical care, and the basic necessities of life.

Please, consider helping us during this critical time. Every donation, no matter the size, brings us one step closer to safety, stability, and a chance to rebuild our lives.

ok but what if. what if huaisang actually did grow up, but kept pretending to act helpless for the plan? what if hes actually a good sect leader under the mask he puts up? just thinking about it because after canon lxc is in seclusion, nmj and jgy are... well. and wangxian fed wont help, jc is out of the question, so even if the helplessness in terms of sect leadership wasn't an act, (because cmon nhs orchestrated and planned and acted for a decade he can handle managing a sect) he would still have to either learn or step down. i doubt that he would step down anyway, so he'd likely learn but yeah, that's my thoughts on nhs

tldr: nhs might actually be a really good sect leader

i was looking at mafuyu cards today, and i realised something.

before mafuyu left her mother, her expression in her cards were more or less all very severe, sad, angry, or a mix. they were also very sad, dark, depressing backgrounds, etc. but after she left and escaped to kanade, the cards become lighter, happier, brighter. she's even smiling in a cat-eared ghost guide untrained! not only that, she's not frowning anymore, her eyes also have more light in them. in almost none of them is she actually frowning, more so just having a neutral expression, but its already an improvement. it just feels like she's slowly healing away from that bitch and with niigo, and thats amazing. just...a thought i wanted to share :D
