THE VILLAIN IS THE HERO OF HER OWN STORY.

Jade; Do not try to be pretty. You weren’t meant to be pretty; you were meant to burn down the earth and graffiti the sky. Don’t let anyone ever simplify you to just “pretty".

[alonesomes]

in this story, your mother isn’t the villain. in this story, you find a way to pick the lock, to wake up, to climb out of the tower yourself. in this story, you’re angry. in this story, you meet a dragon and it is afraid of you. in this story, you don’t need to be saved. in this story, your mother raised you to recognize a prison from a home. in this story, they don’t fall in love with you before they know you. in this story, they aren’t better than you. in this story, you have claws. in this story, happily ever after has bite marks in it. in this story, you are free and terrifying. in this story, you get away. in this story, you bleed. in this story, you survive.

At the end of Blood of Olympus, imagine Percy sitting down at a desk with a tape recorder on it. He’s weary, scarred, still has monster dust on him and looks downright exhausted. He sighs, takes a deep breath and presses record.

“Look,” he says, “I didn’t want to be a half-blood.”

But when he finishes talking about the battle of Manhattan he realizes he can’t tell the entire story himself.

went to the theatre cafe in london the other day, and not to be overdramatic but it’s the best place in the world probably. they have amazing memorabilia on the walls (inc. the broomstick from the first london performances of wicked, omg) and play showtunes all the time and the wifi code is stagey24601 which sums it up really.

if you’re ever in london, GO - it’s on shaftesbury avenue opposite queens theatre (les mis).

Eysenck is especially well-known for his classification of personality-types. He divided people into four broad types: Extrovert-Stable, Extrovert-Unstable, Introvert-Stable and Introvert-Unstable. These types are fairly self-apparent in our daily lives, so no surprises there. However, he found that certain types are drawn to particular subjects of study, works of art and political affiliations in markedly predictable ways - and that is where things become really interesting.

Extrovert-Unstable  people are, according to Eysenck, more prone to insanity, extremism and authoritarianism than other personality types. Again, this is pretty much what we would expect. However, Eysenck soon found that his intellectual opponents in British universities were typically sociology students, many of whom resorted to threats of violence against him. Further research confirmed his hunch that students drawn to sociology were overwhelmingly Unstable-Extroverts, very seldom Stable-Introverts.

He looked at me, his irradiated blue topaz eyes glistening, and all I wanted to do was kiss him on lips that were soft and the purest padparadscha. I blinked my tsavourite garnet orbs at him, my cheeks blushing vintage rose.

One of the best moments of my childhood.

[themoonisfree]

I can’t even tell you how excited I was that they turned this book into a movie and it was good

[silenthill]

I literally have absolutely no complaints with the movie at all. Once, my friend and I did comparisons from the book and the movie, and we found the only major difference was the fact that Stanley wasn’t heavy set when he arrived at the camp in the movie. The majority of the script is raw quotations from the book. This is my favorite book to movie adaptation and it did everything Percy Jackson, Inkheart, and The Golden Compass didn’t.

[rabidauthor]

And the only reason Stanely wasn’t heavy set was because in the book he loses tons of weight and eventually ends up being almost thin. The director said he didn’t want to force an adolescent boy to lose weight on such a quick filming schedule, and L’bouf’s audition was so spot on, that they decided to go with a thinner Stanely from the beginning

[colt-kun]

And I’ll support directors actually giving a crap about their actor’s health.
