literally no one asked but i came up with probably too many headcanons about annabeth and olives

[transannabeth]

no one wanted to know but 

annabeth brings a ton of olives to go on quests for snacks (they exist! they’re in little applesauce containers)

she shares them with percy, but begrudgingly 

percy, eating her olives: i dont even really like olives 12 yr old annabeth, reactive and down a cup of olives: how fucking dare you

when someone asks why she eats so many olives she has a whole spiel about how olives are healthier than chips and it leaves so many more questions than answers

she has and will fight people on if olives are good or not — they’re GREEK demigods, they should all be of the same opinion here

the athena cabin is just PACKED with olives they have a whole set of shelves devoted to olives they have an olive supplier 

like half the cabin has olives as a stress food 

stressed? olive time. 

percy sees like three empty cans of olives on annabeth’s desk during finals week once and is like “should i be worried?” and she starts to go into her “healthier than chips” rant but he interrupts her and is like “oh no, not about your physical health” 

athena cabin initiation ritual where newly claimed campers have to try one of each olive type to see which is their favorite so they know what to stock 

even if you think you already have a favorite you have to do it

malcolm is always trying to get people to try the more unique ones (”would you like to try taco? what about sriracha” and annabeth kicks him) 

meetings in the athena cabin take place over a bowl of olives

(percy witnesses this once and is like  ‘this is wack’

annabeth: olives are a symbol of peace percy: you mean an olive branch annabeth: which olives are part of)

percy watches that meeting and is like these vibes…off… as annabeth insists that olives are perfectly normal and he’s like yeah but.. 

annabeth’s bagel order is a black olive bagel toasted with cream cheese at this tiny little bagel place her and percy frequent

(off topic, but percy and annabeth argue over if long island or nyc bagels are better whenever they get bagels. this is a real argument. i witnessed this argument when i lived in long island)

annabeth: stop making it weird! i like olives a normal amount, mr blue food percy: [gasps]

annabeth: downs a cup of olives while staring percy dead in the eyes percy: slowly sips a blue coke grover: i thought we were getting coffee

percy once tries to talk to grover about this and if it’s weird and is like “should i be concerned?” and grover is actively chewing on an olive can 

percy bribes grover with coke cans, annabeth bribes him with aluminum olive cans

percy tries to come up with an anniversary gift for annabeth once and is blanking and is like “what if i just give her more olives” and grover’s like “you cant JUST give her olives. but that could definitely be part of it” 

when they’re older, at bars percy will only order annabeth drinks with olives in them, even though they (usually martinis) aren’t necessarily her favorite, but she thinks its funny and sweet

percy when he and annabeth get a pizza (half hawaiian for him because i think that’s funny, and olives (and sometimes other toppings) for annabeth) and there’s an olive or two on his side: by eating this olive i am showing peace remains between poseidon and athena, symbolically adding another shovel of dirt to cover the grave where their rivalry lies and my sacrifice—

thoughts on Sally’s parenting?

I wasn’t going to answer this bc fuck pjo but you know what... maybe I do have some thoughts. i’m not going to put much effort into this or proofread it at all so take my messy word dump without complaint please (also I recently skimmed this post by @blackjacktheboss so if anything sounds familiar.... thats probably why.)

to preface, she’s a fictional side character so obviously not very fleshed out at all so most of my thoughts about her are formed by my personal perception of her and influenced by my life/experiences.... so could be extremely different from someone else’s view simply because of our different perspectives.

as a parent, sally jackson is in constant fight-or-flight mode. she’s always on high alert and any decision she makes is based on short term survival. as someone who lost her family early on, her top priority is probably keeping her kid close which leads to a decision that isn’t the best long-term but short-term.... she does what she has to do. she works a shitty job, she marries a shitty guy, she lives in a shitty apartment, and she does what she needs to do to keep her kid as safe as she can while also keeping her sanity+peace of mind by having him close by. should she have sent him to chb early on? probably. do I think that her choosing alternatives makes her a bad parent? no.

mothers are people too, and sally jackson’s life was hard. maybe it was just a little bit selfish of her to not send him to chb, but holy fuck can you blame her? he is the one thing that hasn’t gone wrong in her life. she deserves to be able to keep her one source of comfort close by to her. look, it’s not like she said “I’m keeping my kid” and then threw him to the wolves. she did everything she could to keep him safe. she prioritized him. even though literally everything was shitty, she went out of her way to raise a sweet, respectful, mindful, loving, boy. she valued his emotions and did everything she could to spare him from the negatives that came from her choices. she willingly took on the hardships that came with keeping percy. despite the toll that must’ve taken on her she never took that out on him. for a child to grow up in a situation where poverty and abuse are a constant and still have the unshakeable belief that their mother loves them.... what a feat. percy thinks of his mother and his childhood and his memories are overwhelmingly positive, despite everything that they went through. sally jackson did that!!! she did that!!! she cultivated as fantastic a childhood as she could for her son. she took every opportunity to give him positive memories to look back on and she did a damn good job of it too. giving him traditions in even the smallest of daily tasks (like the blue food, etc.)...... lord. what a woman. she gave that kid unwavering love and affection. he never doubted his mother or her love for him once.

from a practical/logical standpoint.... yeah maybe she didn’t make the absolute best choices she could have made. but from a human standpoint... she did a damn good job and her relationship with her son is a testament to that.

maybe if we all let go of the idea of a fixed, innate sense of self we wouldn’t be so paranoid about losing / destabilising it

[sawasawako-archived]

boundaries and borders are permeable. sometimes, they’re just an illusion. people get so caught up in shielding & protecting an identity that is, in the first place, inherently fluctuant. let go of the notion that you are definable, containable. so many of the problems we face stem from the fact that we conceive of ourselves through a western individualist lens, which equates sovereignty with imperviousness, which unduly consecrates the individual and severs them from their milieu, which establishes a binary way of looking at everything. it’s like ursula k. le guin said: you are not against the world, you are a part of it. if we let go of the idea that stability—social, existential—is inherently precious, desirable, valuable, we wouldn’t clutch things so close to our heart. we wouldn’t be so afraid of being infringed upon, because there was nothing to violate in the first place. we wouldn’t be so categorical about things. we wouldn’t love labels. we wouldn’t love commonality & familiarity & predictability & homogeneity as much as we do. we would understand that there is no such thing as difference, only variance, because artificial distinctions & false dichotomies—hierarchies—that have become naturalised will be revealed to have been bogus all along. because walt whitman was onto something when he said “do i contradict myself? very well then i contradict myself, (i am large, i contain multitudes)”

everyones asleep which means it’s time to post obscure & original gay art no one asked for

[ID: a digital drawing of a girl and a mermaid sitting along the rocky coast of a beach in front of a cloudy sky. the girl is in the foreground, facing away from the viewer and caressing the mermaid’s cheek. she has brown skin and black hair tied into a braid. she’s wearing a cream colored shirt with the sleeves rolled up, brown pants, dark brown boots, and golden jewelry. a rapier is strapped to her waist. the mermaid is staring into the eyes of the girl, resting a clawed hand on her shoulder and smiling softly. they have light teal colored skin covered in scales, long and curly dark green hair, and black eyes. they’re wearing a blue top with sleeves that fall over the shoulders. their tail is multicolored, with scales in hues of green, blue, and purple. ocean waves lap at the rocks they both sit on and fog is in the air. End ID.]

I want a home mostly just to welcome people into it. There will be bowls of candy for guests, and the cookie jar is full. I’ll always say “I was just about to make a coffee/tea/cocoa, would you like one?” when somebody walks in. There’s lemonade and iced tea made fresh on hot days. Once it hits That Hour and they start saying they really should be going, I’ll remind them that the futon is always open, and I’m making cinnamon rolls tomorrow. There’s champagne and sparkling juice hidden on a high shelf just in case somebody announces their engagement or their pregnancy or their new job while they’re here. There is an extra chair in the living room, at the table, and on the deck, and it’s for you. I want to be able to say “if you’re ever in trouble, come to me.”

from yesterday’s requests on insta, i love the concept of hazel being able to levitate swords bc u know, they’re made of metal. she’s just flexing here but imagine how badass being able to fling swords around w/out touching them mid-battle is

[ID: a digital drawing of hazel levesque and percy jackson in front of a yellow background. hazel’s arms are outstretched and nico’s sword floats in front of her, surrounded by sparkles. she’s closing her eyes and grinning. percy stands off to the side, looking amazed, holding riptide out & saying, “mine next!” hazel has dark brown skin and darker, curly brown hair. she’s wearing a purple t-shirt with the letters ‘spqr’ written in gold and dark blue slightly frayed jean shorts. she’s also wearing earrings in the shape of a daisy. percy has brown skin, dark brown hair streaked w/ grey, a and is wearing an orange camp half-blood t-shirt & jeans. there’s a speech bubble in front of him coming from off screen that reads “i told you guys she could do it!!! -nico.” End ID.]
