Ghost Notes:
Hey everyone! Just wanted to give a quick life update, and let y'all know that I'm going to be taking a bit of a break from posting. It's nothing serious, I just need to focus on school for a bit and lock back in on grades! I'll still be interacting with any posts I see/am tagged in, but there probably just won't be any new work for the next week or two. (Although knowing me, that can be subject to change LMAO)
With that being said, I have tons of things that are in work in progress right now (including a new member to the Flock 👀), so hopefully when I get back I will have many fun this to show you all :D
Ok that's all!! Lov y'all, be nice to each other and stay safe <33
With love
~ Ghost <3

au by - @flock-of-the-divine
We need to have a chat
TW: I will be mentioning CSA and physical abuse briefly (also I apologize once again if this is hard to follow, I just have a lot of feelings about what’s been going on)
Hello all of those who are here and know me from the FotD community!! Which is a majority of you!! We need to talk about something that I think needs to be nipped in the bud.
I have come to find that there is a lot of sentiment towards Inez specifically that leaves me feeling very discouraged about continuing to let her be a character others can write and draw about. And I just want to break that down here.
I understand, first and foremost, that I introduced Inez as a cut-throat little girl who tattletales. And at first, I was very proud of the job I did that made many assume she was stern and borderline antagonistic. But that is because I had more to uncover about her story. Even in her introduction post, I mentioned that she does what she does as a means to not get hurt, but I didn’t expect many to fully grasp it at the time as I kept her backstory a bit vague on purpose. However, I am at a point now where I’ve uncovered more of her backstory and how she actually feels and it is at this point I feel the most discouraged.
If you haven’t read any other post about Inez and still want to include her in your pieces, I urge you to at least read this one. Inez is a little girl who had been sexually and physically abused. She is not your enemy here. It is absolutely okay for your character to dislike her because she is such a stickler for the rules! But out of character stuff, I have seen people genuinely using Inez as the butt of jokes. And it frustrates me even more that characters who are true antagonists and the exact type of predators that would’ve preyed on her (cough cough Brian) get an okay when a 14 year old does not. I will not get into my personal details, but I’m sure it is apparent through Inez and other characters I have outside of this universe that these themes and experiences are something that I care deeply about. So to see an abused little girl get villainized where grown adults who are antagonists (and some also snitches themselves) get praised just really discourages me in a lot of aspects.
Thoughts on the flock
Flock of the divine [creepypasta au made by @flock-of-the-divine]
What Delilah thinks of the flock<3 (this is my first time writing something this long and detailed so some info could be wrong,if so please correct me and I will change it as soon as I can [check the bottom!])
The oracles:
Tim: She looks up to him for his impeccability and ability to follow the rules flawlessly, but she would lie if she said he doesn’t startle her a bit; for that and knowing how strict he is, she tries to avoid him.
Brian: She has a similar feeling as she does for Tim but she doesn’t avoid him as much,she feels there’s still a hint of something in him, of approachability. She knows he has some favoreds between the lambs,she doesn’t know if she’s one of them, it would be nice to be.
Toby: Easily her favorite oracle, she enjoys talking to him and really appreciates him for not being as strict as the others. She has her suspicions about what is going on between him and Lexi but keeps her mouth shut,the worse she’ll do is give him a smug smirk when she thinks he’s looking at her or following her,without elaborating and playing dumb. She also likes fire,not to cause it,just to look at it and the warm feeling on her skin so whenever he starts a fire,she’ll most likely be the first or one of the firsts to give a look.
Lexi @bloody-heartstrings : Honestly,Lexi’s actions kind of confuse her,it’s nice of her to keep anyone from being bleed either she likes them or not but at the same time,the way she looks at them,talks to them. It sends a genuine shiver down her spine,she doesn’t think she’s bad,just a hurt soul. She always has a smile and a soft tone for her,no matter how harsh the response is.
Kate: At first,she was terrified of her,everytime she saw her,she would try her best to change room or get as far from her as possible but with the knowledge of someone who’s been part of the flock for a while,she respects her deeply,sure her speed is still a little startling but that’s not her fault and not something she does to scare. Overall she’s a fair Oracle.
Wern @harpy-ribs : Delilah adores her,she would give anything to be like her. She always tries a little harder when she’s around. She sees her as some kind of motherly figure she has to please and make proud.
Titus @marshallseries : She talks to him only when she confesses something and it’s never pretty. He’s the only one who has ever properly seen her cry and not only that,when it comes to her mistakes she’s really…dramatic,he has seen her cry,sob,saying the most harsh things about herself,he basically saw her at her worse,she’s more than grateful for his consoling words.out of that desperate state she tries not to talk to him,embarrassed of the the mess that she is that he had to witness.
Max @ruinsversearchive : she likes him,maybe due to the fact that they’re kind of similar. She can see that he’s trying his best and appreciates it,she also respects his views about sins.
June @rinartz : at first Delilah thought June was just doing her job,she understood that she had to report everything and kind of defended her but that’s was before she had the misfortune of living on her skin what happens when she doesn’t report sins and she will never forget that. She doesn’t want to remember that,she pushes the memories away,to keep her sanity intact. She’s terrified of her,every-time she sees her,her hands began to tremble and her voice weakens.
Roady @razorslash87 : she doesn’t see her much but when she does,she enjoys every seconds of their interactions. At first she was very distrusting and tried to keep her distance but by their first small talk she started considering her a friend,a trusted one.
Dalia @thehungman : Delilah finds him very confusing, she’s always kind and respectful towards him,like she is with everyone but she tries to avoid him if she can.
Nicholas @connectionterminated13 : Delilah usually can’t stand people forgetting her name,it makes her feel unimportant, but she doesn’t mind when it’s Nicholas,she heard about him and is completely understanding about it. If she ever witnessed him not remembering her name or someone else’s name,she will kindly and most importantly quietly remind him,not in a bossy or shameful way,just a kind little reminder.
The lambs
The shepherd
Kehan @wildeing1505 : doesn’t see him much,actually she might have forgotten his name for a while but always smiles at him
The farmers
Robbie @nessakangocblog : she doesn’t know much of him but appreciates his willingness to help,she also can relate to his trouble with controlling words and never would dare to give him a hard time for it.
Tani @gnarpgnarpworldtour : she finds her really cool and wishes they could talk more,used to fall a lot for her tricks but never got mad at her,she always keeps really patient with her but still doesn’t really believe what she says.
Lila @proxynights : not really sure about how she feels about her,sure she’s weird but,isn’t everyone a little weird here? Doesn’t really believe that she’s the favorite follower,but wouldn’t reveal it to a soul. If that what keeps her going, good for her, who is her to destroy her beliefs?
April @marshallseries : Delilah doesn’t really see her much,in years she has been here,she barely saw her and they never properly talk, sometimes she tries to talk to her but never once tried to force an answer not felt offended by the lack of it.
The hunters
Danny @mother-of-horror : Danny? Oh they’re a sweetheart. Very pleasant to be around,she would consider them a friend of hers,and if they ever needed anything she would be more than happy to help,knowing they’d do the same.
Katya @katgetsako : Yet another person she really enjoys being around,especially for her whimsy and friendly behavior.
Natalie: Delilah immediately felt a sense of fascination for her,she had been quietly desperate to get on her good side since she first joined,she’s definitely the coolest person she can think of and it’s happy to be able to call her a friend without getting dirty looks.she has heard of what happened to her and feels really bad for her.
Phantom @marbl3-v0rt3x : tries to avoid him,she’s sure she will make him mad somehow if she talked to him,but if he ever started a conversation or asked for anything she would of course treat him like everyone,with a kind smile and sincerity.
Annabeth @ghost-or-something : Delilah doesn’t know much about her,she heard her talk but REALLY rarely.
Lichen @tired-enby-thats-obsessed : respects them,always did but she was sure they disliked her or felt neutral towards her but she’s not really sure about that anymore.
Rose @stopbuggingm3 : sweet thing,she sees her sometimes staring at a wall or following something that isn’t there,she always asks if everything’s ok even if she knows she’s just like that.
Shelby @artsartblog : she’s certainly…something. She’s surely a really nice person and had never been anything else to her but she can’t help but find her obsession a bit…creepy? But of course she’d rather die than admit it.
The gatherers
Alette @ribcagecavityy : She feels really bad for her,feeling almost protective towards her,if she ever heard someone judging her or talking bad about her,she’d defend her without thinking twice,she didn’t choose where to be born.
Hayden @askdoppelgangerandjeff : That poor child. The fear in his eyes is just…unbearable. She can only imagine what he went trough and yet he still manages to be so silly,like a normal kid. He also managed to get a giggle out of her in various occasions,would try to prevent him from seeing if an oracle just passed by.
Shay @silkiechique : Always tries to talk to her,has probably started 90% their conversations. She would love to talk more to her but she always seems to isolate herself and of course Delilah can only respect that.
Nessa @nessakangocblog : Delilah noticed that her tone is always softer when talking to Nessa,she’s afraid to say something wrong and scare her,just like with everyone else,she tried to talk with her but almost instantly found out she preferred staying silent and immediately started to be quiet around her,of course her being her, a soft spoken comment is always assured maybe about the weather or a compliment about her work but she never expects an answer.
Billie-Mae @dollsyiie : probably the one she enjoys working with the most. The kid is funny,kind. She feels almost bad she won’t get to live a normal life. She will rant to her about her plant knowledge when they’re together but will mutter an apologie when she finally realizes she is talking too much again. She makes sure to always let her find the prettiest flowers, and keeps her from touching anything that could harm her.
The Maintenance
Ben: an idiot,in the nicest way possible,she never sees him actually working and most of the time doesn’t see him at all. But when he’s around she will have a smile on her face. She has been bleed because of him in numerous occasions.
Jeff: she’d much rather not express what she thinks of him. She’s constantly telling him to go easier on people,especially the youngest. She really doesn’t understand what brings him so much joy in seeing others suffer. She once laughed at one of his pranks and is still getting teased about it.
Lee @thecryingcl0wn : sometimes sees them in the hallways, thinks they’re cool but never talks to them.
Valentin @timoogi : she finds him really funny and genuinely thinks he’s really talented,loves his energy even if sometimes she finds it a bit…overwhelming.
Adália @adathedirac : she’s a lot to handle sure,but not for that she deserves to be treated differently! Other than a few smiles and a small talk once in a while,they don’t interact much.
Dyl @skullcfusher : Really helpful! Sometimes she sees him work and starts a small conversation,she thinks he’s really cool. Surprisingly one of the few she told about her life before the cult,not much,just figured he has similar interests and humor as she used to have as a teen.
Rue @crushedsweets : at first she gave her the same treatment as everyone,but rumor brought to her about what happened to her lover,since then she checks on her more often,her gaze shifting from the usual cheerfulness to a sympathetic one.
Shawcross @askdoppelgangerandjeff : mostly stays away from him,not cause she doesn’t like him of course! She just doesn’t know how to deal with such personality.
Bandaid @askdoppelgangerandjeff : constantly worried about,ready to do anything she asks,kinds of suspicious for why she always excuses Shawcross but just justifies it as “siblings bond”. Thinks she’s not gonna last long but tries to push the thought away.
Beddie @nessakangocblog : she really likes her pranks unlike Jeff’s. Kind of understands why she would be distrusting of male authorities even without knowing her background, has tried to reassure her about them,but gave up after a while,not wanting to force her. Saw her sneaking a pretty rock in front of her door once,doesn’t know what it means but she treasures it.
Arthur @connectionterminated13 : like with any “kid” she has a soft spot for it. Gets slightly protective when anyone calls it stupid.
The Cleaners
Helen: it’s usually nice to be around him, but she learned at her expenses to leave him alone during his episodes,it really wasn’t pretty and she risked a lot but of course she knows it’s not his fault and never held it against him and kept treating him as if nothing happened.
Inez @timoogi : at first,Delilah tried to treat her like the other kids but almost instantly learned this was not the case. Sometimes she thinks she’s even more adult and competent than her…of course she doesn’t enjoy being snitched on but she can’t bring herself to be mad at her.
Priscilla @katgetsako : appreciates her works and admires the fact that she was never bleed and overall just admires her in general.
Lagrimal @myb0nesandsku1l : she sees them rarely and never knows what to say to her, which is really unusual, she heard she doesn’t like to talk so putting the two things together,they never actually interacted.
Hemlock @mother-of-horror: Delilah likes talking to them and has even asked to try and explain sign language to her,to make it easier for anyone who might need it in the flock but failed miserably,ending up just saying nosense.
Riley @parkedview : Delilah sees her eagerness to be useful and appreciates it but always makes sure to remind her to not stress too much over work especially if it isn’t her own, and that she’s doing great.
Mallory @skullcfusher : thinks she’s absolutely beautiful and pretty much just “knows” her on a surface level,they’re not close or anything but she thinks she’s a nice girl.
Noan @harpy-ribs : treats her like you would treat an elderly person,always making sure to talk louder around her and just thinks her constant lying is more of a forgetting stuff situation, not to be mean or disrespectful she genuinely thinks she’s THAT old.
Kai-ligh @kai-ligh : they are really quiet and she would usually initiate a conversation and try to get them to open up, but they look always like if they were holding something too big even for themselves,she wishes she could help but doesn’t want them to relive painful memories or talk about something they don’t want to talk about. Sometimes tho the two have talked,mostly about Nat.
Ophil @lost-my-dragon : felt bad for him instantly, cause that looked like it would really hurt, still today asks if he’s feeling ok or needs anything.
The Cycling lambs
Grace @artsartblog : Friends because of Nina, Grace has kept her from sinning a few times and she’s really glad for that,once has heard of her “shipping wall” with Nina and constantly begs to give just a look.
Lina @marbl3-v0rt3x : doesn’t really talk much to but if she ever told her to do anything she would do it without a word.
Cole @mother-of-horror : finds them a sweetheart,incredibly sweet and ready to help, and she tries to reciprocate when she can.
Skylar @the-satellite : Reminds her of herself when she was that age,can’t help but have her at heart,constantly trying to take the blame or trying to cover up her sins,sometimes lectures her but always with a kind tone.
RoseMarie @nursegracecreates : doesn’t know much about her but overall friendly,likes having her around.
Elijah @isa1vh : feels bad for him, they’re not friends but they’re not acquaintances either,tries to convince him he’s just as special as anyone here,with no success.
Nina: sometimes she can be too much,but Delilah loves it and often lets herself getting dragged in the chaos,one of her closest friends but she never got and it’s kind of annoyed by her obsession with Jeff of all people.
Jane: has tried to talk to her but never got much out of it,really feels bad for her.
Dina: really wanted to be her friend but got called a “dirty sinner”…she never spoke to her again.
W.I.P
(Im super tired and I really want to post this and get feedbacks cause I can’t tell if I hate it or not [soon editing with the cooks and healers and anyone I might have missed])

hey. devil on everyones shoulder here. i think you should ship your character with everyone. yeah, put that guy in as many situationships as possible. make it messy and confusing. and then make it worse. there is no room for love in a place like this. you will never be able to love each other openly. explore that. take that love and twist it. corrupt it. is it even love anymore?
yes… yes guys…
love is forbidden and sinful and dirty!! make it that!!! make your characters so desperate for connection that they look for it in everyone even if it isnt reciprocated!!! and make them feel disgusting for it!!!!

(✧Notes from Ghost: I'm going to try my best to go as in depth and everyone's characters because everyone is so cool and complex and I really want to give them the time and energy they deserve!! With that being said, I do also recognize that going extremely in depth into everybody would be difficult. There are just so many characters it would take me quite a bit of time to write paragraphs about every single OC. On top of that Annabeth is a very closed off character and so she's not going to have long opinions on everybody simply because she just wouldn't get to know them. I'm so sorry if I don't go very in depth about your OC, And just know that I think they're truly fantastic!! Also I am going to try to keep this post updated and up to date with new OCs as they come out though! I will warn you tho, that it might be a little while in between updates, So all I ask is a bit of patience <3 ) (Also also; I will be doing the other prompts very soon but I just wanted to get this out first!!) Okay that's all I have to say, enough with me yapping. Enjoy!!)

I genuinely adore everybody's OC’s and it's so unbelievably incredible to see how creative and talented everybody is! Everybody in this project is so talented and I genuinely, wholeheartedly, love everybody's characters <3
The Flock:
The Healers: Annabeth tries her best to remain on at least decent terms with all the healers. Not necessarily because she has a deep-founded respect for every single one on a personal level, but rather she is not stupid enough to start fights with the people who have to see (and heal) her often. Her burn marks are quite high maintenance meaning she is a regular patient.
Eyeless Jack/ Jack Nyras: Biology was not a strong suit for Annabeth and so Jack being a well-trained well informed surgeon is not something Annabeth scoffs at. She respects his ability to slice flesh in straight lines while maintaining such a sterilized environment. Without being said however Annabeth finds that he's her least favorite out of the healers. it's not his fault she just doesn't particularly like the idea of a man she's unfamiliar with healing her wounds.
Needles (By @deathlyafraidofneedles ): I wouldn't say they're particularly close, but if Annabeth had to choose somebody out of a room it would be Needles. Needles is by far her favorite healer simply because the two don't talk to each other. While not something she usually enjoys, Needles’s calm energy helps take any pressure that may have been there out of the room. The mutual distance between the both of them allows for more thought and Annabeth's mind. Annabeth respects that Needles is just doing her job and doesn't try to engage in conversation or anything that is unnecessary. A mutual respect of silent solitude.
Lucky Charm (By: @fluffycreepynectarine ): I imagine in the first couple weeks Annabeth was in the monastery, Lucky Charm saw her quite a bit. They would try to make conversation with her only for Annabeth to respond with a quiet desolate stare. After a couple visits, Lucky Charm took the hint. Annabeth doesn't have too many complicated feelings on Lucky Charm. She respects their position and is grateful for their help but outside of that, there's just not much between them. (Although, Annabeth is pretty baffled about the amount of luck Lucky Charm truly has. I would even say a bit astonished. Truly an enigma that Annabeth does not have the time to care about.)
Juniper (By: @ijustloveyourstupidface ): I imagine the two of them sadly don't have the best relationship out there. It's not that they dislike each other per se, it's more that Annabeth's silence and constant distrust of Jack causes a rift between the both of them. Annabeth however can appreciate the chaotic energy that Juniper seems to carry with her. A bit of entropy never hurt anybody and Annabeth can't help but find some degree of humor in the chaos. All she asks is for is to not let that same entropy to fuck things up in the middle of a medical procedure. As long as that doesn't happen Juniper is in the clear.
Cyra (By: @justasillycrowcollectingtrinkets ): Cyra’s upbeat personality can be a bit of a turn off for Annabeth and vice versa. Annabeth is somebody who is just trying to make it through the day without much interaction, but Cyrus seems set on adding a bit of sunshine to everyone's life. The problem arises because Annabeth has a prolific vitamin D deficiency. They're clashing personalities is something that both of them can't ignore, and this unspoken distaste for one another results in uncomfortable silence. Shallow death glares traded like poker chips in illegal gambling rings. Despite all of this Annabeth knows it is in her best interest to remain on decent terms with the healers, so she resorts to her favorite response to people; shutting up and never responding. (I also imagine that they have a tendency to trigger each other's tics. Both the girls have Tourette's syndrome and if one is ticcing the other is bound to start any minute, which only adds more to the tension between the both of them)
The Cooks: Another group of the flock that Annabeth tries to remain on at least decent terms with. Annabeth is a hunter, she interacts with the cooks quite often delivering bloody meat from a fresh kill every day. Annabeth is also aware that some of the cooks are not above shifting rules around to the people that they like. Not that I need the cooks like her enough to do that, but Annabeth would like that card in the back of her pocket if she were to ever need it. Unlike The Healers however, Annabeth has a knack for irritating people, resulting in her having a far harder time staying on good terms with the cooks. Such is life I suppose…
Nicole (By @hauntedradiostation ): Annabeth doesn't know what to think when it comes to Nicole. Annabeth wouldn't say that she particularly likes Nicole but she is aware that that feeling is mutual. Annabeth has caught Nicole giving her the most bombastic side eye multiple times and all Annabeth can do is just stand there and question “-The fuck did I do?” Nevertheless Annabeth just brushes it off and continues through her day. No point wasting time on somebody she finds “beneath her.” (Annabeth is definitely getting “Totally not on purpose” food poisoning one of these days)
Belle (By @bloody-heartstrings ): Annabeth finds Belle extremely naive and far too timid for her liking. For the first little while of knowing Bella Annabeth automatically assumed that this girl would be eaten alive in the dog ring that is the monastery, but to her surprise, she didn't. (Or at least hasn’t yet.) For some reason Belle is able to keep herself out of all of the chaos that is this Hell home, and that baffles Annabeth. How can somebody so timid and straight-laced survive in this place? No, there has to be more to her. Annabeth knows that there is so much more to Bell than she lets on and Annabeth doesn't trust it for a single second. This might be a case that Belle can't lie her way out of. (Belle totally can, Annabeth just thinks too highly of herself LMAO)
Tabby (By @the-ship-maker-2 ): Tabby always gave Annabeth a lopsided smile and a wave whenever Annabeth entered the kitchen to drop off the latest kill of the day, In overtime the two of them slowly got closer to one another. It took a little while but Annabeth started to find Tabby quite endearing. Have you tried their best to make the kitchen a safe space for everybody including Annabeth no matter how cold and a bath may have been. Tabby and Annabeth have had conversations and Annabeth feels close enough to Tabby to actually talk to her. In an unexpected but valuable connection.
The Shepherd: The one and only.
Kehan (By @wildeing1505 ): If Annabeth thought that Belle’s Survival in the monastery is outstanding then Kehan’s survival is nothing short of a poorly placed miracle. His ability to remain alive is a pure and utter defiance to all of Annabeth's logic. At this point Annabeth's not even upset or distrusting of him, she's just astonished. By the way at the end of the day she doesn't have to talk to him so she's probably better off just not giving a fuck. On the bright side, it's another person she can show her control to.
The Farmers: Annabeth doesn't interact with the farmers very often considering her line of work and so she doesn't necessarily care when it comes to her reputation with them. They can think whatever they want of her and she can do just the same.
Robbie (By @nessakangocblog ): Robbie is going to get himself hurt one of these days and when he inevitably does Annabeth will laugh. It's not that she dislikes the poor boy, oh no! On the contrary! She finds him very entertaining. He holds that chaotic energy that she just can't help but crave. Because of Robbie's inability to think through what he's going to say next Annabeth always mentally prepares herself to either hear the most mundane thought anybody has ever had or the most obnoxious comment that would send somebody spiraling. He is a living game of Russian Roulette and Annabeth is watching from the sidelines.
Tani (By @gnarpgnarpworldtour ): I can't imagine that Tani and Annabeth get to cross paths very often. Due to both of them being cold and distant I can't ever see them talking to one another. Perhaps just a simple glance in each other's direction as they continue on about their day. Although if they were to ever get to know one another I imagine them being quite good friends. They are similar in morale, aligned in logic and maintain the same appreciation for silence. I could see these two being extremely close but at the end of the day the stars only crossed in passing and so did they. (Although I will also say any friend to the fire is a friend to Annabeth)
Lila (By: @proxynights ): Another one that Annabeth has mixed feelings about, although these feelings go deeper than she cares to admit. Annabeth knows what it's like to be illusioned in the idea of being “The Savior.” (Although that title holds a very different weight between the both of them) To Annabeth the biggest difference between the both of them is that Annabeth killed her delusions when she was young. She grew out of them and it appears to her that Lila hasn't. Lila still protects herself by submerging her mind into delusion and Annabeth just sees that as a weakness. She made pity her but Annabeth's hatred for weakness is far stronger than any pity she may have. (Annabeth is so hypocritical holy shit LMAO)
April (By @marshallseries ): Annabeth has never met April in the flesh at least not yet, But by God does this woman have a legacy. April to Annabeth is a prime example of what it takes to survive. April is a dog that is willing to sink teeth into the neck of another and draw blood, and Annabeth can't help but idolize that.
The Hunters: In the monastery, everybody is “family” but as a hunter Annabeth feels more familiar to these people than anybody else. (Minus a handful of people she's made connections with) These are the people that she works beside every day and while she may have her gropes and problems with some at the end of the day, they need to look out for each other. The same way all the other groups do. This doesn't make Annabeth automatically trust every hunter, in fact quite the contrary, but they are the closest thing to family Annabelth has felt in a long time.
Danny (By @mother-of-horror ): Danny is a living test of Annabeth's loyalty. The relationship is reminiscent of an older and younger sibling dynamic. Just because the hunters are family doesn't mean that Annabeth is more welcoming to them than any other set of people. She's just more likely to take it easy on you. Danny is a perfect example of this. Being a younger, talkative, emotional person, Annabeth has a very difficult time connecting to Danny. Annabeth's short temper is a lit like a rope bomb whenever they're around one another. Annabeth has never snapped at Danny but Danny definitely has gotten quite a few warning glares from Annabeth went out on a hunt, which only causes Danny to be irritated Causing a fucked up Rube Goldberg Machine of irritation and anger. However at the end of the day if Danny was in trouble Annabeth would be there, defending her case till the bitter end.
Katya (By @katgetsako ): Katya's sociable energy immediately put Annabeth on edge. Luckily after a little while of Katya trying to be social with Annabeth only to be ( like so many others) met with silence Katya backed down. Despite this Annabeth does have a respect for her ability to work on whims. While on hunts together watching Katya's creativity take form so quickly is something that Impressed Annabeth, and being able to think of quick quips I clever comebacks It's a commonality between them. Not to mention Annabeth can appreciate Katya never taking anything too seriously! Although like everything there is a limit to that, and when that line is crossed Annabeth finds herself irritated. But at the end of the day Annabeth will always come back around.
Natalie: Crazy amounts of respect!! The girls were set on a hunt together during Annabeth's first couple weeks and they came back much closer. They're rarely ever seen talking to one another, but they are together nonetheless. Sometimes they just stand next to each other. Silently basking in each other's presence. It's a mutual respect. A mutual understanding. Annabeth would consider her a friend but not someone who she's extremely close with.
Phantom (By: @marbl3-v0rt3x ): He is the one Hunter Annabeth cannot stand. Both Phantom and Annabeth are quick to anger. They are both gunpowder with far too much built potential energy. Phantom's relationship with Tim, Annabeth's constant glaring, and the mutual distrust between the both of them was the spark that got too close. Doesn't matter who made the first move. By the time anybody noticed there was an argument it was far too late, the both of them committing violence and drawing blood like it was France 1793. It's safe to say that the both of them don't go on hunts together, because if they did one of them would not be coming back. Or at least not without a couple of bullet wounds.
Lichen (By @tired-enby-thats-obsessed): (Note: this was just copied and pasted from Annabeth's key relations, sorry about that!!) As roommates, Annabeth couldn't really ignore Lichen the way she could with others. At first she was terrified of them. Last time she shared her room with anybody it didn't go well. Boundaries were crossed and consent was thrown aside like a rag doll. She couldn't have another experience. She just couldn't. After a little while however, that fear seemed to dissolve. Removing blood stains from her clothes unprompted, leaving them folded on her bed when she returned from daily activities. Or dealing with the oracles at night, after the night terrors got too loud for anybody to ignore. Soon even learning and adapting to just sleep through her screams, and in the morning never crossing the line of asking too many questions and too much curiosity. Through little actions like these Annabeth no longer understood their existence as a threat but rather a symbiotic relationship. An unspoken alliance that she found herself settling in.
Rose (By @stopbuggingm3 ): While Annabeth can respect Rose's quiet detachment; she also can't help but feel disturbed. When Annabeth is around Rose she's on high guard. She knows Rose is always watching and isn't above snitching and that means Rose is a threat. Annabeth in her quiet hours is rebellious, no matter how thick she lays on her obedient persona, but then Rose becomes a liability. If she were to see Annabeth breaking a rule and about the would surely bleed and the probability of Rose seeing Annabeth doing something she's not supposed to is far too high for Annabeth's liking. Because of all of this Annabeth finds herself quite cold to Rose. As long as Annabeth can stay out of the same room that Rose is in she will be safe. She has a tendency to treat Rose as if she is something not worth Annabeth's time. Brush her off and she won't stay connected. It's nothing personal.
Shelby (By @artsartblog ): Shelby's Lack of genuine personality seems to strike Annabeth right in the nerves. Annabeth cannot read Shelby. She knows Shelby is putting on a persona, but she can't figure out who's behind it and that intimidates Annabeth. Annabeth can never fully trust Shelby and because of this, she always keeps a watchful eye on Shelby. Who knows if she's going to strike, Annabeth certainly doesn't. On top of this Shelby's absolute devotion to The Divine is something that also causes alarm for Annabeth. Not only is Shelby competition for Annabeth and her goal of proving her worthy enough to be an oracle but also Annabeth knows like Rose, Shelby would absolutely snitch on her the moment she got the opportunity to. Annabeth needs to stay as far away from Shelby as she possibly can. If Annabeth were caught during her small revolutions, Shelby would be the judge to sentence her to a one hell of a bleeding.
The Gatherers: Annabeth is far too harsh on this group of people. Being a hunter not only does she barely interact with them but there's a sense of betterment that comes with it. Annabeth tries her best not to interact with most of the gatherers. It too often reveals a side of Annabeth that she fears. A more monstrous girl.
Alette (By: @ribcagecavityy): The best word for it is pity. Annabeth knows what it's like to grow up in a family that claims that it is yours when it is not. She knows what it is like to grow up with absent biological parents. She knows what it's like to feel like a stranger in your own home. Perhaps that is why Annabeth finds herself smiling at the young girl whenever they're in the same room, an action that Annabeth has not done for anybody else. Perhaps that is why Annabeth takes the time to listen to every word Alette has to say. Perhaps that is why Annabeth gets a bitter taste in her mouth every time she looks at the poor girl. Or perhaps, Annabeth is just projecting.
Hayden (By @askdoppelgangerandjeff ): Annabeth is intrigued. This is obviously a child who has gone through a lot of pain, Like everybody else in the flock he somebody who has had to survive. But unlike everyone else in the flock his story hasn't finished yet. From Annabeth's perspective, he is still finding his footing. Finding his voice to scream and rebel with. And with that same voice, he will be screaming as he is reminded of the consequences for doing so. Oh yes, Annabelle is intrigued. She wants to see where this kid will go. She wants to hear his cries of rebellion, but that doesn't mean she'll help when she hears his cries to the oricals brutal retaliation.
Delilah (By @w1tchyh0 ): Annabeth finds Delilah as another lamb in the flock. Another lamb Annabeth needs to show her control over by being a cold demanding presence in the room. A constant reminder that she is being judged for her weakness. It's not that Annabeth doesn't feel any guilt when she does this, she does. She's aware that Delilah is younger than her and obviously has gone through shit that made her the way that she is, but it's a dog eats dog world especially in this feral mutt ring of a “family” and if she is the dog that needs to sink teeth, so be it. With that being said, there are certain things about Delilah that Annabeth does have respect for and can even relate to. Only talking with the people that you're close to? Knowing that your words can be your most powerful weapon and your most potent downfall? That's a good skill to have.
Nessa (By @nessakangocblog ): I imagine that Annabeth and Nessa don't truly interact. Between Nessa’s skittishness and Annabeth's bite, The two of them seem to stay out of each other's way. Nessa’s Ability for elusiveness better hold strong, especially when Annabeth is in the room.
Billie-Mae (By @dollsyiie ): Annabeth does everything in her power to keep distance from Billie-Mae because deep down she knows that she feels a strong sense of kinship with the young girl. Never being able to grow up under normal circumstances? Never being able to flourish and grow into the best version of yourself? Being held back by nothing but your environment? Oh yeah, these are things Annabeth is far too familiar with. Not to mention both girls have extreme scarring on the left side of their face. Altering their appearance in the way people perceive them forever. That hits far too close to home, closer than Annabeth is comfortable with. (And to top it all off, The Appalachian accent reminds her so much of somebody she can't seem to wrap her memory around)
Maintenance: If Annabeth wasn't a hunter she would have been maintenance. She wanted to be a physicist, specifically a Quantum engineer. Till this day she still yearns to make. To build and create with technology, Placing something into existence solely because she put her mind to it. She's jealous that the maintenance gets to play with technologies she is forbidden from. But then again she always was a better killer.
Ben (Drowned): Annabeth doesn't know much about Ben but the small instances in which they have run into each other she finds him quite humorous. They have the same dark sick sense of humor and Ben is just too funny not to laugh at. He's one of the few people in the monastery who can genuinely make Annabeth cry of laughter and for that She holds quite a bit of respect for him. Now if she did know his job and if she knew what he was doing. She would actually kill him. Privacy is something obscenely valuable to Annabeth and if that privacy is breached like it was all that time ago then she will let him burn the same way she burned Theodore.
Jeff: Annabeth has a like-absolutelyhate relationship with Jeff. His egotistical self-centered mannerisms remind her far too much of Theodore and honestly make him unbearable to be around. If Annabeth got the chance she would actually strangle him. Although she has to admit he has a good sense of humor ( sometimes) and she can appreciate his ability to snap the rules whenever he feels like it. (Although she does think of him reckless for it)
Lee (By @thecryingcl0wn ): Annabeth can respect the distance between the both of them, but she can also respect their curiosity. Annabeth, being a “former” woman of science, is a firm believer in the ideology of “Question everything.” Science is built on asking questions. Progress is made by wanting answers. Curiosity is the driving force of mankind and Lee exhibits that flawlessly. Annabeth just hopes that they can keep their curiosity contained. “Curiosity did in fact kill the cat, don't let it kill you too”
Valentin (By @timoog ): Annabeth doesn't trust him for a second. He is able to connect with every person in the flock. He is a constantly changing persona with the ability to switch his existence into another with the same fluidity as a running water, and Annabeth knows the scariest person at the table is the one who is hiding all of their cards. He is a riddle Annabeth cannot solve and by God does that infuriate her. She does not trust him for a second and when she finds out who he is she will be his downfall. Marker words on it. (Girly has so much beef with Valentine and I don't even think he knows her name. this is such a silly Dynamic LMAO)
Adália (By @adathedirac ): Annabeth in Adália probably wouldn't interact much. Their devotion to the divine off puts Annabeth quite a bit and if Annabeth doesn't need to interact with them she won't. Annabeth knows what it's like to compete for power but this is different, Annabeth fights for control, Adália fights for devotion.
Dylan (By @skullcfusher ): If Annabeth and him got the opportunity to get to know each other more I could see them actually getting along quite well. Between his standoffless cold demeanor and his skepticism for The Divine, I think the two of them could have a lot in common. However, Annabeth is critical of his awkwardness. It's a weakness he has on full display and somebody will eventually use it for his destruction. That kind of carelessness doesn't work with Annabeth. Either way if Annabeth had any interest in actually getting to know him (I fear girly probably doesn't) I could see them being quite friendly.
Rue (By @crushedsweets ): I don't see these two interacting ever simply because both of them keep to themselves. Although if they were to ever actually get to know one another Annabeth would be extremely critical of them. There is no room for weakness, not in the monastery, and Rue is just far too easily manipulated for Annabeth to ever consider her to be an ally. It's nothing personal but Annabeth just can't have a liability.
Shawcross and Bandaid (By @askdoppelgangerandjeff ): (Note I decided to group them together because I can't imagine Annabeth would interact with one and not the other) Annabeth has a deep respect for their relationship. To see brother and sister fight for each other so valiantly and care for each other so deeply is something that Annabeth truly wholeheartedly respects. She has had her fair share of tragic brother relationships and so to see a sibling relationship where the two hold each other so close is an inspiration for Annabeth. (When she sees them she can't help but wonder if this is what her and Liam's relationship would have been like if they were adopted together. I guess she’ll never know.) Annabeth also truly hopes the best for Bandaid. She hopes that Bandbaid's outcome is whatever she desires it to be. Whether it's life or death Annabeth hopes for an easy and hopeful outcome.
Beddie (By @nessakangocblog ) I actually see Annabeth and Beddie getting along really well!! Even though both of them don't speak for very different reasons I think there's a mutual kinship that comes with it. Plus Beddie has the trickster's chaos to her and Annabeth can't help but indulge. I imagine the first few times the girls interacted probably weren't as openly friendly as they would inevitably become, but with time I imagine that Beddie managed to break down Annabeth's walls just enough for a little bit of light-hearted recklessness to bleed through. I imagine that because Annabeth is a hunter there's been a handful of times where she's offered to train Beddie. Just for shits and giggles. (Also when Annabeth saw Beddie punch in Oracle in the face she immediately gained respect)
Arthur (By @connectionterminated13 ): Annabeth will not go near Arthur. Annabeth will not be in the same room as Arthur. Annabeth will not interact with Arthur in any way shape or form. (It's nothing against it personally, in fact her entire avoidance of it has nothing to do with Arthur in general. The name Arthur it's just far too familiar to Annabeth. It shouldn't be familiar. Annabeth never knew anybody named Arthur. she didn't. she didn't. she didn't.) ( Ghost note: I feel really bad because I really like Arthur as a character so here's a non-canon version so that way I could still give Arthur a proper paragraph :3) Annabeth initially would be very confused by it, even a little disturbed. She's not sure what it is, she knows it's not human, but it's trying to be human. Trying to gain an experience it doesn't have. After thinking about it for a little too long and about disturbia would turn to pity. she doesn't know what it went through but she knows it's worse than whatever she did.
The Cleaners: Annabeth is a very messy person so she at least has an admiration for every cleaner in the monastery. Hands covered in bleach, soap, and sterilizer, They can get their hands dirty in the way she can't.
Helen (bloody painter): Helen is quite the enigma to Annabeth. For somebody who holds themselves so quietly and politely his reputation precedes him. Annabeth has heard violent and vicious things about Helen. All it takes is one psychological break and you have quite a few Lambs in the clinic. Helen is a reminder to Annabeth that you can't judge a book by its cover. Despite this Annabeth will still judge him.
Inez (By @timoogi ): Annabeth can't seem to form any solid opinions on Inez just because of how young she truly is. Inez Is a child whose emotion was stripped away from her. She has developed to the same hard outer shell that Annabeth has but at a far younger age. Annabeth can't imagine what kind of turmoil that must bring to her now and what kind of hell that will bring to her when she's older. With that being said, if Inez does end up catching Annabeth breaking a rule and snitching, Annabeth's opinions will be made solid real quick.
Priscilla (By @katgetsako ): OHHHH ANNABETH HAS BEEF WITH HERRRRR LMAO Annabeth probably would have been very neutral about Priscilla if it wasn't for the fact that one night Priscilla yelled at the hunters for not hunting enough gain the morning before. Annabeth doesn't take criticism well, that's never been a strong suit of hers. So when another lamb had the audacity to scold Annabeth and the hunters, Annabeth did not let that slide easily. Now to be fair Annabeth fully understands why Priscilla was upset in the first place. Does this mean that Annabeth's Pride didn't get the better of her?? No. Annabeth's pride will always get the better of her. And on top of that it was a reminder to Annabeth that she is not in any more control than any other lands, and that is a thought that plagues Annabeth. Annabeth will get her vengeance and when she does she will make it sweet.
Lagrimal (By @myb0nesandsku1l ): Annabeth isn't quite sure what to make of them. It's not that Annabeth dislikes them, she has no reason to. It's just something about them that has a nihilistic energy to it. They are a vessel with no soul. A puppet with no strings. A human body with no life. An animated corpse. Never mind that, as long as they stay out of Annabeth's way and as long as Annabeth stays out of their way they'll remain unusual terms. (Even if Annabeth is a little creeped out by them.)
Hemlock (By @mother-of-horror ): Well Annabeth might not have any kind of personal connection with hemlock; she can admire hemlock's loyalty from afar. Hemlock is not above breaking the rules for the ones that they love. They have no tolerance for anybody who may try to hurt their loved ones, Annabeth can't help but respect that. (Not to mention there's probably Ginger solidarity there)
Riley (By @parkedview ): Annabeth finds her a misguided soul. Another lamb to be chewed up by the canines of the monastery. Misplaced kindness in open nervousness are weaknesses that will get you stabbed if not killed. It's not that Annabeth dislikes Riley, and if it feels quite neutral towards Riley, but that doesn't mean that Annabeth is not already predicting Riley's downfall. (Despite all of this, Annabeth does admire her ability to stay clean. Annabeth has always been quite grungy and that comes with not always being the most organized person. So Riley's ability to maintain organized and cleaned even in other people's environments is impressive to say the least)
Mallory (By @skullcfusher ): Mallory is perfect. Too Perfect. There's something about the way she holds. She bats her eyelashes and holds herself as a goddess in order to get what she wants. She drapes her innocence like a silk veil, hiding true intentions behind the pearlescent fabric, shielding everybody's sight into who she truly is, and Annabeth can't tell if she despises her for it or adores her for it. No matter how much Annabeth tries to pretend that she sees through Mallory, she doesn't. Annabeth is fooled by her persona just like everybody else. With that being said Mallory is a threat to Annabeth's control. Because Mallory is perfect on the outside, she is the flawless candidate to rise the ranks. Annabeth's biggest fear when it comes to Mallory is that she cannot compare with her. Annabeth is a breathing flaw. A paradoxical contradiction, Meanwhile Mallory is able to hold herself in holy light. Annabeth can't let Mallory win, No Annabeth doesn't lose. She's just not quite sure how she's going to win.
Noan (By @harpy-ribs ): JESUS DOES GRANNY NOT STOP?!? /j/j/j In all seriousness Annabeth is extremely cautious of Noan. Another lamb who thinks that they can lie their way through the entire existence and Annabeth is not falling for it. She will keep to herself about all this, but if Noan causes any trouble for Annabeth she will dig up any dirt she can get on this woman. Of course this doesn't mean Annabeth is a snitch. If she catches no breaking any of the rules she'll just look the other way like she would for anybody else. The only way that Annabeth would have any problems with Noan is if she actively got her way.
Kai-ligh (By @kai-ligh ): Annabeth doesn't know much about them. I don't imagine the two have ever crossed paths but if they do I can imagine Annabeth being quite curious. Part of Annabeth would wonder where they come from and who they are. What is their story to tell? The curiosity when it lasts long as the two of them pass by. Annabeth won't reach out unless they do first.
Ophi (By @lost-my-dragon ): The both of them find solitude in the quiet. And Annabeth’s opinions on him are very neutral. Because of Annabeth's insomnia and night terrors I imagine that they come across each other quite often during the odd hours of the night. I can't imagine either of them speaking to one another, just silent power dynamic placed upon by glances and stances, and a mutual understanding to not ask questions.
The Cycling Lambs: Annabeth's opinions on the cycling Lambs is just as diverse as they are
Grace (By @artsartblog ): Grace has gone up to Annabeth a few different times and Annabeth's response was always silently staring. While the two may not interact very much there is a part of Annabeth that does find Grace endearing. Annabeth can tell Grace wants to kindle some type of relationship with her but Annabeth is just so detached It would almost be difficult for her to entertain the idea. Almost. There's something about Grace that's intriguing to Annabeth, even if she can't quite tell what it is. Perhaps that is a relationship that Annabeth should try to grasp.
Lina (By @marbl3-v0rt3x ): Annabeth admires the way she holds herself. Whether on purpose or not Lina holds herself as cold and un-empathetic and Annabeth admires that. The same cold stance, the same need for power, the same control they hold in a room. If Annabeth were more talkative I could imagine the two of them being quite friendly with one another. A mutual respect for each other's presents. Or perhaps it is just better for the both of them to stand silently next to one another.
Cole (By @mother-of-horror ):Annabeth appreciates Cole from afar. He knows his moral beliefs and he stands by them with determination. He fights for not only what he believes in but the people he believes in as well and Annabeth finds him truly an admiration. And on top of that he has exhibited quite a few rebellious tendencies, something and about this far too familiar with herself. Sadly I believe that she is too cold and too quiet to ever get to know him on a personal level, but perhaps if he were to talk to her and break her down her mental walls a little they would be very close to one another.
Skylar (By @the-satellite ): Now this is a kid with bite. Annabeth is truly impressed with this kid's ability to survive. At 14 this kid is already biting the hand that feeds them and Annabeth is laughing in support the entire time. Of course Annabeth is aware of the naivety that Skyler holds. Not every fight is one where gnashing teeth and in declaring Revolution gets you the win. Sometimes laying low and becoming a destructive force from the inside is what it takes. Annabeth believes that these are lessons that Skyler still has yet to learn, but out of everybody in this hellish family Annabeth truly believes that Skyler should be the one to succeed. Annabeth is keeping a watching eye on the Revolutionary.
RoseMarie (By @nursegracecreates ): While Annabeth can respect keen memory and sharp wit, I can't imagine these two being particularly friendly with one another. Between Annabeth's cold demeanor and RoseMarie's brusque personality these two girls would probably be butting heads more than they would like to admit. Despite all of that I imagine the two of them still hold some level of respect for one another. They may not always agree on everything but their Respect for intelligence allows a fundamental baseline of connection.
Elijah (By @isa1vh ): (He reminds her so much of the false memory) I don't think Annabeth and him would interact very often. He sticks to the shadows and anonymity and she sticks to silent stances and cold stairs. With that being said Annabeth can't help but find a bit of entertainment in his bad luck. Bro has some of the worst luck Annabeth has ever seen and she can't help but indulge in the entropy of it. They may not ever say anything to one another but a connection is there, through quiet shadows and chaotic outcomes.
Nina: Annabeth finds Nina's obsessive Behavior over a mediocre man to be “A choice” To put it lightly. Nina dragged herself to hell the family for somebody who didn't even really know her, or care about her and YET continues to remain. Annabeth wouldn't describe Nina as the sharpest tool in the shed but hey what does Annabeth know about love.
Jane: I imagine Annabeth and Jane, while not extremely close they share a deep kinship with one another. They both know what it's like to burn. They both know the feeling of flesh boiling on skin, melting away in thick viscous clots. When Annabeth first joined the Flock of the Divine it was Jane who taught her how to take care of her burn wounds correctly, and for that Annabeth will always be thankful.

AND HOLY SHIT THATS IT!! I'm pretty sure that everybody is in The Flock!! If I missed somebody or you see please do not hesitate to DM me or leave a comment and I will get to them as soon as I can!! I genuinely love everyone's OCs and their creativity!! It was so fun looking through and getting to know everybody's characters <3 Anyways I'm going to go sleep for 1 million years
Since I said I'd be doing this, I am here to deliver it
Grace's Thoughts/Relationships with others
Note these will all be from Grace's view point so things may not be accurate to the characters for @flock-of-the-divine
Enjoy :3
The Oracles:
Tim: She doesn't hate Tim, maybe one of the few people who doesn't. She just feels drawn towards him at times, but passes it off as feeling at home. He's just doing what he's supposed to so she can't fault him. Plus, he has his gentle moments even if he's not always gentle. Sometimes she wonders what his face looks like since she hasn't ever seen it, but somewhere in the back of her mind she knows what it looks like. Maybe he knows what it's like having a side of yourself you're not proudest of? Maybe he was once like her before following the Divine?
Brian: Oh definitely knows he's just manipulating her at times. He's one of the high oracles, of course he's manipulating her. Yet, she can't grow to hate him, not when he also feels like home. He's very nice, even if it is a facade. He's a smooth talker and the kind of guy her mama told her to watch out for. He's pretty patient with her all things considered and the one that has allowed her the choker. Is that a manipulation tactic? Who knows - not her. Perhaps in another life they could've been close friends
Kate: A bit quirky? Quiet, but not in the unsettling way. Finds her speed really cool. She has referred to Kate as Sonic once to Nina because of just how fast Kate moves about - though Shadow would probably be a more accurate comparison. Would like to be her friend, but is too awkward to even try. Sometimes intimidated by Kate.
Toby: Probably her favorite oracle, or at least one of them. He's fun to be around since he gives no shits about the rules or sins. Number 2 Toby x Lexi shipper (we all know who the number one is). He's a breath of fresh air in the monastery with his chaotic behavior. Though she hasn't ever been on his bad side so she doesn't know how he can be when pissed off.
Lexi: @bloody-heartstrings Another one of her favorite oracles. She views Lexi as a friend even if they don't always interact or talk. She's grateful for Lexi. Though a part of her feels bad for Lexi and all the shit she's gone through (which she's learned from others), but in a way proud that Lexi has been able to keep going despite it all.
Wern: @harpy-ribs Please, please, please leave me alone!! Gets major anxiety around Wern. It's really hard of Grace to hate anyone, but Wern is a strong contender for being someone she strongly dislikes. Figures that Wern is just like this, but gods does it cause so much anxiety. She already struggles with remembering all the rules and sins as it is, being nitpicked about things does not help. She will actively avoid Wern or else she'll suffer nearly having a panic attack.
Titus: @marshallseries Finds him weird. How does he always knows things? Is he spying on everyone? Surely everyone's journals don't tell him everything, right? Avoid, but don't be obvious. He makes her uncomfortable, but doesn't think he's terrible. Doesn't really interact with him much.
Roady: @firestarhateswafflez Omg Bestie!!! Spider-Man pointing meme with her, Nina and Roady. So happy to see her out of most people in all of the monastery. Rebels at heart. Definitely a surprise at first, but was glad to find someone else in the cult that got her (like Nina does). The only other person she's ever given one of her drawings to, which are just fun little drawings of those in the cult. Will hangout with Roady whenever she's free and Nina's busy. Would risk escaping the cult if Roady asked her to
June: @rinartz Avoid At All Cost. Why do you have to be a snitch? You're an oracle sure, but man can't a girl just exist. Typically avoids, which has led to not knowing much on June. Literally has forgotten June's name before, but there's just so many people and names to remember - at least she can remember June is an oracle
Max: @ruinsversearchive Not sure how he's an oracle, but good for him? He's sweet so she is more likely to be less awkward around him. Definitely gay, but your secret is safe with me. Definitely one of her other favorite oracles just because he's pretty nice and may relate to him a lot
Dalia: @thehungman A bit weird, but aren't we all. Doesn't really know him well to have much of an opinion on him. Has definitely forgotten his name on occasions (seriously tries her best, but at least she's doing good on remembering the rules). Pretty neutral on him and has no intentions to really get close with him.
Alette: Oh bless her heart (oop Grace's southern upbringing is coming out) Feels bad for Alette the most because she'll never know the joys of the world outside of the monastery and the cult. Vaguely knows things about Alette's past, but doesn't let it stop her from trying to treat Alette like a normal girl. Gotta be careful not to make references to things from outside of the cult Oh how she's nearly gotten caught humming around Alette. Has definitely said some random saying that her parents would say when growing earing confused looks from Alette has earned looks from Lexi because of this oops
The Lambs:
Nicole: @hauntedradiostation Slowly becoming friends. Sure, Nicole is standoffish, but definitely could be the best of friends. Will listen to the nonsensical yapping and won't complain - truly a great friend. A really amazing cook! Grace is definitely grateful for Nicole even if Nicole doesn't know it. Definitely enjoys helping her out in the kitchen.
Tabby: @the-ship-maker-2 Another amazing cook, but that's obvious. Thinks both Tabby and Nicole needs a break from cooking, but who else would be able to do their jobs. Not super close so she doesn't have many thoughts on Tabby, but thinks she's pretty cool. probably has called her Sanji when talking to Roady before
Belle: @/bloody-heartstrings Doesn't know Belle well, but thinks she's cool. Definitely loves her sweets. Belle could have her own bakery and Grace would be a regular customer. Despite not being close, would definitely call Belle a friend because she's just so sweet. Could be good friends if they hung out more.
Inez: @timoogi What's with this sassy lost child?/ref Definitely awkward around Inez. Doesn't really like being around Inez because it's like she has to apologize for existing. children don't scare me, but this one does Tries to be nice to Inez just because she was taught to be kind to everyone will use Helen as a buffer if the three are in the same room
Nina: BFF in the whole monastery. Biggest distraction/pos Would kill for Nina (as any best friend would). Has a "secret" shipping "wall" (it's just a piece of paper that's kept hidden among their things that some people know about). Yappers, please they don't know how to shut up sometimes. Acts like an older sister to Nina at times. Will softly sing songs they're not allowed to in their room because it helps mostly helps Grace's anxieties and insomnia Definitely helps Nina out with finishing her chores and vice versa (though it's more of Grace helping out Nina)
Ben: Sort of friends. Suspects he does more than just maintenance, but won't outright call him out on it. A weird friendship because of Nicole (has definitely visited their room when she's not supposed to just because to talk to Nicole). Will make random references (mostly game refs) around him just because she thinks he'll enjoy them. Will watch him play games on his DS if he lets her which is rare, but worth it
Helen: Painting buddies. One of the few people she can just exist around. The main person she shows off her art to because he's also an artist even when she's drawn him. She mostly does the talking out of the two of them, but tries her best not to talk too much around him she doesn't want him to hate her He's really cool - definitely someone she calls friend even if he doesn't share the sentiment. Will avoid him during his episodes, but that doesn't mean she doesn't worry about him during those. Sometimes hums around him if he lets her.
Hayden: @askdoppelgangerandjeff A fun kid that definitely doesn't deserve to be in a cult. Would do anything for the kid if he asked, she just thinks is nice to see him happy she really has a soft spot for people younger than her in like a mom friend way It's cool that he can have a friendship with Jeff everyone needs a friend in a place this Doesn't hangout with him much, but if she's around when he's getting in trouble (or Jeff getting in trouble for something Hayden's done) she will take the blame instead even though she hates being bled
That took some time to do lol
There's a lot of characters that weren't included, but that's because I've got to think on them more which means this will be continued another time.
:3
Grace's Thoughts Part 2 (electric boogaloo)
I'm going to mostly focus on the ocs than the other characters - just so I can get those down
Nicholas: @connectionterminated13 Old man. Trusts about half of the things he actually says whenever she manages to get him to talk about his past (or just talk in general). Enjoys listening to whatever stories he does tell her (even if most of the time it's exaggerated). Not particularly close with him, but doesn't mind whenever he's around. He kind of reminds her of her grandpa.
Needles: @deathlyafraidofneedles Not really close - hell she barely even knows Needles. Not for a lack of trying. Needles is definitely a closed off person, but Grace gets that. She gets the job done so there's no need to force her to speak.
Slasher: @slasherflicks999 Also not really close with Slasher. Mostly because she doesn't spend that much around the healers. Also because the less time around Slasher means the less time around Alette since the two are close. Though on occasion she will visit him at night to have someone to talk to whenever her insomnia kicks in. Will definitely ask him random questions about vampires - she thinks the supernatural is cool
Lucky Charm: @fluffycreepynectarine Like the rest of the healers, not that close. However, she does enjoy Lucky's presence. They're nice and probably her favorite healer. Always feels better after seeing Lucky - helps Grace momentarily forget about any pain as they're being a nice distraction from the pain. Considers Lucky a friend even if the two aren't that close.
Juniper: @ijustloveyourstupidface Doesn't really know much about her. They don't really speak unless necessary. Though she is aware of Juniper's inability to lie since it makes her sick, which really is beneficial for the oracles.
Cyra: @justasillycrowcollectingtrinkets She's nice, but just enough to keep others at a distance. Probably would get along if they spent more time around each other - especially since they both like art.
Kehan: @wildeing1505 Their paths don't cross very often so she really doesn't know much about him. Though she does think he looks cool. She could see herself getting along with Kehan.
Robbie: @nessakangocblog Finds him to be nice to be around. She also enjoys the way he just speaks without thinking at times - even if sometimes he says really random things. Definitely appreciates his company whenever she's around him.
Tani: @gnarpgnarpworldtour Despite how Tani tends to play tricks on other lambs and is detached from the flock, Grace thinks she's pretty neat. She tries her best to be nice to Tani, but she never knows if Tani believes she's being genuine. She would like to be friends with Tani, but is just grateful to be able to see through some of Tani's pranks.
Lila: @proxynights Weird...but not her cup of tea kind of weird. If they are made to work together she will actively stay quiet because she just doesn't know how to deal with Lila. Definitely believes Lila belongs in the cult compared to most that are in the cult.
April: @marshallseries hahahapleasestayawayfromme Definitely avoids April whenever she can. Pure panic attacks whenever around April. Luckily doesn't work much with April, but god she would rather deal with the Divine than be around April.
Danny: @mother-of-horror They don't cross paths often, but thinks Danny is nice. Friends, but like those friends that you would only really talk to if you're in the same friend group but don't reach out to each other outside of the group.
Katya: @katgetsako Friends? She's not too sure. Definitely sociable whenever the two are around each other. Sometimes ends up breaking rules with Kat without even realizing it because it just feels like they're not in a cult whenever they hang out together.
Annabeth: @ghost-or-something Pretty cool even if she doesn't talk much. Tries to be her friend, but it doesn't really work (in Grace's opinion). Don't really interact much.
Lichen: @tired-enby-thats-obsessed Her favorite of the hunters. Definitely sees them as a friend, even if it takes time for them to come around. She suspects that they are the one to slip her a note of a recipe for a temporary hair dye - which she keeps safe for whenever she plans on using it. Enjoys working alongside them whenever they are free to offer their help. Despite the rocky friendship, she trusts them a lot more than any of the other hunters (or really any of the other flock)
Rose: @stopbuggingm3 Don't really talk or interact much. Unsure how to really interact with her so she just doesn't. She has nothing against Rose, she's just one of those people that Grace doesn't hang out with.
Shelby: Why are you so obsessed with the Divine? I know I have questionable tastes, but you certainly take the cake for that. Somehow friends, but in the sense that Shelby loves messing with Grace as if the two have known each other for years. Really the extrovert that adopts an introvert type friendship.
Delilah: @w1tchyh0 Sweet girl. Friends because of Nina, but does enjoy being around Delilah. Another case of friends because of a friend group, but doesn't really try talking to each other outside of the friend group. Glad that Nina has Delilah as a friend.
Nessa: Not really close. She can see that Nessa is on constant alert for some kind of danger, but never points it out. Only really talks to Nessa if they are working together or if absolutely necessary.
Billie-Mae: @dollsyiie Feels bad for Billie-Mae, but never says that out loud. She tries to help Billie-Mae with whatever she needs - even if that's just knowing the best way to express something so others can understand. Always nice to Billie-Mae because she's just a kid and needs someone kind in her life.
Lee: @thecryingcl0wn Not particularly close, but thinks they neat. She will join in on gossiping with Lee and Ben whenever she works with them. Will yap to Lee without realizing that because of just how nosy Lee is - literally will tell Lee anything if they ask. Despite Lee being a gossip/nosy, she can always feel relaxed around them. Coworker you enjoy hanging out with at work type friendship.
Valentin: @timoogi ✨Theater Bestie✨ Enjoys hanging out with him. Absolutely loves his theatrics. Will sing any and everything with him if he asks (which is mostly for Belle's entertainment) The one person she will act like her old self around because he just knows how to bring that out of her. Always manages to do work a lot faster because Val is a source of entertainment that allows her mind to be perfectly stimulated for work. Sometimes gets in trouble because of Val, but it's worth it.
Adália: @adathedirac Doesn't avoid, but definitely doesn't go out of her way to talk to. Nothing against Adália, but she's just not good with people who are super devoted to the Divine. Only interacts with Adália whenever necessary.
Priscilla: Another person she doesn't interact with unless necessary. Always feels judged by her. She feels insecure around Prissy, which sometimes causes her anxiety but luckily it's not enough to affect her work. Though considering Priscilla was once a nun it makes sense that she is the way she is.
Lagrimal: @myb0nesandsku1l Not really sure how to feel about Lagrimal because they seem so...empty? Has tried to befriend them, but wasn't really sure how that went. Nonetheless, she still nice to them. Only truly interact whenever they work together since Lagrimal doesn't seem like the type to want friends.
Hemlock: Finds Hemlock cool. Will learn sign language from them if they agree to teach her - she already knows a few random signs. She will help them with getting their work done on time so they aren't bled. She enjoys working with Hemlock since it's usually a pretty chill time.
Riley: @parkedview Typically lets Riley take the lead on cleaning to be sure that she's doing the cleaning how she likes it. Definitely have a coworkers type relationship - will work with them and talk to them when working, but outside of that they don't really interact. No reason why, but she just finds Riley a bit draining not that she blames Riley for that.
Mallory: @skullcfusher Tiresome - like someone she'd enjoy in a movie, but not in real life. Nothing against Mallory, but she just can't spend a lot of time around her. Though she is still nice to Mallory because she may be ditzy, but she's not a bad person. Sometimes gives Mallory advice on how to be more present so that she doesn't get taken advantage of, but she doesn't know if Mallory even listens to that advice.
Noan: @harpy-ribs That weird old woman that has a method to her madness. Definitely believes Noan is up to something, but won't call her out on it. They don't really interact much. Probably the Cruella of the journalist world (definitely called her Cruella once)
Kai-ligh: @kai-ligh Not really close, but will help Kai out if ever needed. She's doesn't have much of an opinion on Kai because the two don't interact much. Though she is nice to them whenever they do interact.
Cole: He's sweet and nice to work with. Enjoys working whenever she works with them because they make it fun. Yapping buddies whenever they work together. Definitely sees him as friend and will talk to him outside of work if they cross paths.
Skylar: @the-satellite Tries helping out Skylar whenever she can. Definitely can see that she's just frightened kid trying to survive and will do anything to help her feel safe (despite everything). She wishes she could give Skylar a better life than being stuck in the cult, which leads to her keeping an eye out for Skylar. She will make sure that they finish their work so they don't get bled for not doing so.
Shannon: @flock-of-the-divine stares respectfully Very aware of his feelings for Belle, which leads to her feeling bad for the fact that Belle and Valentin clearly like each other. Definitely reminds her of a slasher killer from a horror movie and is all for it. She may find him intimidating, but that won't stop her from trying to be his friend. She has definitely drawn him a few times, but she draws practically everyone in the cult so that's no surprise - though she has given him one of the drawings because she thought it was a good enough gift to give him. Honestly doesn't mind his quirks. Finds him weirdly fascinating, but she just believes it's because she loves horror movies (mostly slashers) and he reminds her of them.
There's probably some people (ocs) I missed, but I tried my best (it's a lot of people)
reblogged the og post because I didn't feel like making a separate one
AHHHH I LOVE HER SM <333

(✧Notes from Ghost: Just a heads up, I do plan on doing the other prompts at some point, but I fear it is midterms rn and I don't have tons of time to put into some of the other prompts. With that being said, I wanted to do this one because not only is this a prompt that won't take me super long to complete, but also it gives me an opportunity to dive into Annabeth more as a character!! I definitely will talk about some new things but I also want to elaborate on some things from her character sheet :3 Anyways I hope you don't mind me going a little out of order, and enjoy!! Also I'm so sorry I went so overboard with all this. I just can't help myself. I love yapping about her too much LMAOOO So if you want to know about her mannerisms and speech patterns just skip to the end!!)

Analyzing Annabeth as a character:
“You can have your principles when you have a stomach full, otherwise you have to survive”
✧Annabeth is no doubt a survivor. From the foster care system, to the James family, to Art, She's gone through many different horrific things throughout her lifetime and a lot of those events have shaped her into the person that she is today.
✧Annabeth is very cold and quiet; she doesn't like making connections with people because she thinks that they're all going to end like they inevitably do. Annabeth never had a stable connection with anybody in her life. She's had some people come and go throughout her life but she's never had a staple. She only has a person in her life for a handful of days, months, a year or two if she's truly lucky, but inevitably something happens. Whether it's her running away from them, or them running from her, she's always left to herself. This is what causes her personality. A lot of the time she doesn't find it necessary to make strong connections. ‘What's the point if they're just inevitably going to leave again?’ This has resulted in her being a very secluded and quiet character. This isn't to say that she can't have connections or friendships but she doesn't pour a lot of time and energy into them. If you befriend her she won't actively try to reach out to you. Instead she will let you come to her. If you need something from her, or if you want to see her, then you have to ask her. She's not going to be the one putting the energy into connection that was doomed from the start. On that note as you can probably guess she's not exactly experienced when it comes to…
✧Annabeth opens up; Once somebody befriends someone shes very different. She's still the same cold person but this time there's a layer of empathy to it. She's more likely to loosen up. She's actually quite witty when it comes to her humor and is quite good at quick replies and snippy comebacks. She never means it in a harmful or malice way but rather it's just how she shows love. She's also very sarcastic, almost bordering on sardonic. She'll make grotesque remarks and sometimes even threats and as a part of you that just has to wonder if there's some kind of truth to her words. Of course she never would actually hurt you ( not unless she had a good reason for it) so they're usually just lighthearted threats. Usually. She's also a great listener!! (Although I can't promise she's actually listening) She enjoys hearing the drone of your words, using it as background noise. If you have a hyper fixation you need to rant about and you're close enough to Annabeth, she'll sit there and listen for hours. (Just don't ask her to repeat anything you said.) If you get even closer to Annabeth (This would probably border on romance of some kind) You will see a very different side of her. She's like every other living creature on this world she wants to be cared for; she just isn't quite sure how to make that known. This is a side of her that is scared and vulnerable. She enjoys silent conversations, through gestures and secrets pass through glances. It’s a side of her that is willing to bleed over and over again. A side of her that is willing to break every sin in your name. It's a codependency that her life depends on. Somehow, out of the both of them, she's the one who remains alive.
✧Annabeth is extremely smart; She wanted to be a physicist and had a love for academics but because there's not a lot of (if any) technology for her to play around with she decided to shift her mind to other interests, mainly literature and political relations. When it comes to literature she loves researching vocabulary and metaphors. Instead of talking to other people she pours all of her emotions and mental turmoil into her journal entries that she encrypts with long-winded metaphors and overzealous vernacular. She uses it as encryption. To outsmart anybody who tries to read her thoughts. She makes herself a fortress, a volt. Inaccessible and indecipherable. Something that makes you wonder just how dangerous Pandora's box truly is.
✧ How she joined the family; If you were to ask Annabeth “why she's in the monastery” she would respond with “I'm not entirely sure.” Because that's the truth. Annabeth tries not to think about it for too long but she honestly cannot remember why she's in the cult family. Hell, she doesn't even think of The Divine as a God of any kind but rather just something she fears. She isn't exactly sure what The Divine is but she knows she doesn't want to anger him. For some reason, in the back of her mind, she knows what happens when you do. For some ungodly reason she knows the carnage. Besides, she can't focus on why she's here; she needs to focus on how to survive.
✧Annabeth needs control; in her life Annabeth has felt powerless. Even the James family where she was the baby savior, thanks to Theo she has always felt powerless. She also knows that control is power. Therefore she is grasping for any ounce of control she can get her hands on. In fact she desperately wants to be an oracle. She thinks that the oracles have far more power than the flock ever do and if that's the case then she has to be an oracle by any means necessary. If only she knew how flawed her thinking is. Although she is also aware that there's other ways to maintain control even without immediate power. For example, despite the fact she doesn't outwardly speak to people she doesn't “trust” she's able to maintain her presence in a room.
Annabeth's mannerisms:
✧Even the way Annabeth walks is calculated; because she doesn't speak and because of her need for control she walks with a very confident stride. Shoulders back, posture square, and a look on her face that means kill. (Girly is the walking definition of if looks could kill. In both ways of the saying LMAO) With that being said if she and another person are in the same room she does her best to act as if they mean nothing to her. She wants them to think that they are dust in the room with her. In her delusional mind even if she's a future Oracle, she needs to make her control known now.
✧Annabeth is quick to anger; This doesn't mean she blows up and throws punches when she's angry (although that definitely can happen) but rather it's a quiet simmering under her skin. It's boiling in her blood. It's a death glare and threatening gestures. It's her getting up and leaving the room the moment you walked in because you pissed her off a month ago.
✧Annabeth has Tourette syndrome; It's important to remember when talking about her tics she doesn't have a very severe case. Her tics aren't a 24/7 occurrence but rather sporadic episodes everyday. Annabeth will also tic attacks in moments of high emotional reactions. These emotional reactions can definitely be stress, anxiety, and adrenaline, but tics are also triggered by an increased amount of serotonin and dopamine, meaning if she's extremely happy or extremely excited she will also tic. Annabeth has both vocal and motor tics. Her vocal tics consist of small vocalizations (Such as whoop sounds and hollering sounds) And her motor tics consist of head jerking and impulsive hand jerking as well. She used to be medicated for them before joining the cult family but she no longer is due to medication being an outside technology.
✧Annabeth is a daydreamer; When girly's not trying her best to be intimidating (And being emo) she's zoning the fuck out. Her mind seems to wander at a pace of its own. She can never catch up to it no matter how hard she tries. Her thoughts are a floating river that she is drowning in. Sometimes she gets so deep in her thoughts that hours could go by and she wouldn't even realize.
✧If Annabeth is comfortable with somebody she's very fidgety; If somebody's having a conversation with Annabeth girly cannot sit still. Whether she's pacing around the room doing another task as the both of you talk or if she's fidgeting with her dog tags she's always doing something during a conversation.
✧Annabeth has a fast reaction time; If somebody in the corner of a room makes a sudden movement she's already staring at it. Due to Annabeth being in a constant fight or flight State she's always hyper aware of her surroundings meaning small little motions can cause her eyes to snap over in that direction.
Annabeth in conversation:
✧If you're having a serious conversation with Annabeth she'll keep her answers short and serious. A series of yes’s, no’s, and short explanations fill the space in between questions and accusations. She'll also use more advanced vocabulary in serious conversations. The more impressive she can sound the better. The game for control never stops. ✧In more relaxed friendly conversations with her she has a chaotic energy to her. She enjoys that chaotic energy she festers in like a hearth. (This goes for her environment as a whole she enjoys being in a bit of entropy) Every other sentence is a sarcastic remark or snippy quip. Words filled with chuckling and snickering. She lets words roll off her tongue, sliding into syllables. A metrical pace I withheld throughout the verbal pour of fluid thought. She says every sentence like the early morning sing song bird. There is very little structure to the Casual way she talks instead resulting in more fluid pacing and slightly changing deep tones.
Some "canon not canon" quotes include:
(Somebody critiques her) “I'm not taking any type of criticism from somebody whose face is more texture than the asphalt road.”
(Talking about human connection) “That kind of thing is Ambrosia. Blood turns to icker as the mind indulges, leaving it exasperated. Intoxicated.”
“I am a mad dog biting myself, for why? I do not know”
(Somebody made a bad decision) “Oh please, you're far closer to a fool than any kind of barter.”
(Around somebody she doesn't like (Tim)) “I hope you're aware that a lobotomy would make you far more tolerable to be around”
“I do not put blame on Orpheus when he turns to look back at Eurydice for one last time, because at the outset gateway of the cimmerian Tartarus, I too look back.”
how do i convince my girlfriend to watch marble hornets with me? she’s a lesbian and a scaredy cat so i cant just say “oh spooky attractive guys”
she's a lesbian and a scaredy cat and she hasn't seen it already??

Some of these are going to be copy and pasted from Lichen's ref sheet. Also these are Lichen's opinions of these characters and not mine. I've included all oc's linked on the master list as of time of writing, will try to update this but I've still got a semester of study ahead of me. If you want these relationships to be more mutual (either positive or negative) let me know.
