percy: i think my mom mixed up our lunches

percy, holds up note that reads: ‘i am very proud of you. love, sally’

annabeth: oh yeah, i didn’t think this was for me

annabeth, holds up note: ‘be good. for goodness sake, please be good’

I think pierced ears and earrings are cool and all, but I’m not a fan of wearing earrings all the time because they allow the evil god of change and war and destruction to influence your thoughts emotions and actions and prevent the god of safety and peace and preservation from helping you and giving you extra superpowers and letting you share references to your favorite book series.

one of the hardest parts about being a demigod that isn't talked about enough is learning how to blend in with mortals. yeah, you look the part. but can you act the part? case in point in cotg when percy reveals he has to consciously swim slower when around mortals. but what about annabeth who has to physically retrain herself from engaging in a fist fight bc she knows she can clock them easily and can't afford to get expelled again. or grover who carries iron pills because he can't just chomp on a soda can during gym class. the implications of demigods actively downplaying their god given abilities so they can remain hidden is a concept worth exploring.

starting Warbreaker by Brandon Sanderson

already off to a good start, the magic system seems interesting and fun.

One day you think: I want to die. And then you think, very quietly, actually I want a coffee. I want a nap. A sandwich. A book. And I want to die turns day by day into I want to go home, I want to walk in the woods, I want to see my friends, I want to sit in the sun. I want a cleaner room, I want a better job, I want to live somewhere else, I want to live.

"And would you not rather be a sense of euphoria? Bringing pleasant feelings and joy to those you infect?"

"Euphoria passes. It is usually brief, so we spend more time longing for it than enjoying it." She sighed.
