Percy Jackson and the Olympians by Rick Riordan

"A half blood of the eldest Gods, shall turn sixteen against all odds, and see the world in endless sleep, the hero's soul, cursed blade shall reap, a single choice shall end his days, Olympus to preserve or raze

In answer, he only pressed his lips to hers—first hesitantly, then furiously, deeply, as if there wasn’t enough time in his endless existence.

When Lilac turned for air, he moved his attention to her ear with an unfamiliar recklessness. Eventually he reached her jaw, mouth inching lower still.

Garin removed himself only to whisper chillingly in her ear once more. “Memento mori.”

She gripped at his shoulders and didn’t have time to do anything but gasp when his teeth gently split the skin above her collarbone.

He had been sinking through life, never knowing which way was up or down.

Until her.

Unknowingly, unintentionally, Dynalya Astron had become his sun, and the incredulity of it faded all of his dread.

“I'm loving her everywhere," I murmured. "I feel the grip of her knees on my waist. I'm watching her pitch upward, arching into me, her breasts pointed. She's digging into my shoulders as we let our hips go, her thighs catching me. I'm loving her... because I do, and have, and will.”

― Natalia Jaster, Trick

lit meme: [1/6] minor characters → harry cameron i think you’re brilliant. i think you’re tough. and i think the word whore is something ignorant people throw around when they have nothing else. isn’t it awfully convenient, that when men make the rules, the one thing that’s looked down on the most is the one thing that would bear them the greatest threat? imagine if every single women on the planet wanted something in exchange when she gave up her body. you’d all be ruling the place. an armed populace. only men like me would stand a chance against you. and that’s the last thing those assholes want, a world run by people like you and me.

Tamino Amir as Patroclus

Even I knew it was my turn to speak. “I am Patroclus, son of Menoetius.“ My voice sounded high, and scratchy with disuse. "I am here as a suitor for Helen. My father is a king and the son of kings.” I had no more to say. My father had not instructed me; he had not thought that Tyndareus would ask me to speak. I stood and carried the bowl to the pile of gifts, placed it where it would not topple. I turned and walked back to my bench. I had not disgraced myself with trembling or tripping, and my words had not been foolish. Still, my face burned with shame. I knew how I must look to these men.

READ IN 2021 ➼ a thousand splendid suns by khaled hosseinI

All day, this poem about Kabul has been bouncing around in my head. Saib-e-Tabrizi wrote it back in the seventeenth century, I think. I used to know the whole poem, but all I can remember now is two lines: “One could not count the moons that shimmer on her roofs, Or the thousand splendid suns that hide behind her walls.”

Reylan was a battle-hardened warrior by glance, cold and fearless, but she wondered how many he let in for long enough to see his armor removed. Above everything else she had to face in Rhyenelle, Faythe was dedicated to him. To discovering everything Reylan was beneath his fierce exterior, knowing there was nothing that could make her turn her back on him now.

Books Read in 2021: Girl, Interrupted by Susanna Kaysen

“I was trying to explain my situation to myself. My situation was that I was in pain and nobody knew it, even I had trouble knowing it. So I told myself, over and over, You are in pain. It was the only way I could get through to myself. I was demonstrating externally and irrefutably an inward condition.”

books i read in 2021: rise to the sun by leah johnson

My church is the press of bodies together in a crowd, the pulse of a bass guitar vibrating under our feet, a lead singer preaching the gospel of rebellion and revolution and love through beautiful harmonies and chord progressions. Some people find salvation in a stained-glass building, others find it in a basement punk show.

the girls i’ve been, tess sharpe ⟶ for @sophiemina, happy bestieversary!

I am so sick of crying over them…those girls and what happened to each of them. My mother and what she dragged me into… and how I clawed myself out.
