I’m going through a breakup after a 4-year relationship, so I apologize if I can’t respond to messages right now. I’m not really able to focus on anything at the moment.

[perseabeth]

I finally returned after a long hiatus

This time, it wasn’t something I could control.

Over the past months, a lot happened all at once: issues in my country, the stress of my master’s thesis, and then a health scare. For months I’d been struggling with all kinds of health issues without knowing why, until I was suddenly hospitalized after a severe pain attack in my abdomen. That’s when they discovered a large tumor attached to my ovary, which had actually been the cause of those problems for months. It had to be removed in an urgent surgery a few days ago. (ladies, please watch your health, it’s scary how much we ignore until it becomes serious).

To make things even crazier, I had to defend my thesis (online) only two days after surgery. So yes, everything seemed to crash on me at the same time.

As if that wasn’t enough, I also had to go through a terrifying earthquake where I live, followed by continuous aftershocks that made everything even harder to handle.

I promise I haven’t abandoned anything! Once I get through this healing process, I’ll be back to publishing the chapters I’ve prepared for my fic. I’ll also go through my inbox soon. Thank you to everyone who sent kind words and concern, it truly means the world.

It’s been such a tough time, but I’m healing now 💜

P.S. guess who also turned 26 a few days ago 🎉

hey, not trying to be rude or anything, but are you abandoning 'The Promise of the Wild Sea' fic you made? cause it hasnt been updated in so long.

hello!

Oh, it’s totally okay to ask! And no, not at all—I actually wrote the chapters a while ago, and they were ready to be published. However, after rereading them, I felt there were some areas that could be improved—both in terms of plot development and making the story more engaging (and, let’s say, less cringeworthy).

So, I’ve been spending time editing and refining the plot, which is why it’s taking a bit longer. But rest assured, it’s not abandoned at all! It’ll be ready very soon. Thank you for asking!

Though it would have been funny if the under water kiss would have been retained as percy and annabeth (cause jealous apollo would have been hilarious) i very much doubt that would happen for my platonic babies. That given, will the underwater kiss still happen👀? Though ig its less cool cause apollo is a god, who, in theory does not need to breathe. But still, will it happen?🥲

Ah, this is a tricky question! While it’s not a plot-altering spoiler, my answer will contain spoilers regardless—so, spoiler alert!

As for Annabeth, I did consider it, but ultimately, I decided to keep their relationship platonic. I feel like introducing romantic feelings could make things awkward, especially since Annabeth and Percy are extremely close. So, she won’t be involved in this kiss.

However, the underwater kiss will happen, and it’s going to be absolutely hilarious. That said, it won’t take place in the same timeline as the original story—it’ll happen a bit later for reasons that will become clear.

But yeah, this underwater kiss is inevitable!

Did Callista have any poseidon or olympian blood in her genealogy for her to look like percy (who is acknowledged to look like poseidon)? Or is it like a coincidence where her parents have poseidon like features?

That’s a great question! Things can get a little confusing, but to clarify: Callista doesn’t have any Poseidon blood in her genealogy—her features are purely coincidental and can also be seen in her brother. Percy, on the other hand, looks like Callista for three reasons: she inherited traits from Callista’s genes and from Poseidon’s. So, the resemblance comes from both sides in Percy’s case. as for the third reason, it’s you might have guessed based on the latest chapter. I’ll leave that last one for you to figure out ;)

Hello and good day everyone!

my deepest apology for being away for that long

i had some things to finish and the situation in my country was messy

but GUESS WHO IS BACK

[perseabeth]

Today, after 53 years of living under the iron grip of a single, unyielding dictatorship—where even the air we breathed felt stolen—Syria has broken free.

For 14 long years, we fought tirelessly to reclaim our voices, to demand our right to exist, to be heard. Through unimaginable suffering, through the imprisonment of our children, the horror of chemical weapons, and the haunting scars of countless massacres, we refused to surrender.

Today, Syria stands liberated.

Today, the chains have been shattered, and our homeland belongs, at last, to its people.

Syria is free. Syria is ours.

[perseabeth]
