After Percy's first summer at CHB, his mom sewed his initials into the tags on all his clothes. "So they won't get mixed up in the camp laundry," she said, when he complained about how it was embarrassing, Clarisse would (and did) have a field-day when she found out about it. Secretly though, he didn't mind. After a few weeks of thinking his mom was dead, having her neatly stitched handiwork on the inside all of his shirts felt better than armor, an invisible shield nothing could pierce.

And nothing does, until years later when they have to clean out Cabin 13.

It goes untouched for weeks before Percy finally forces himself across its threshold. No one else can stomach the permanent emptiness, even if it'd usually been empty before. Maybe if it hadn't been, maybe if its lone occupant had ever thought of it as home - thought of camp as home - then there'd still be someone occasionally sleeping in it, warm under a scratchy CHB-stamped blanket instead of cold under a burial shroud.

Maybe if Nico'd ever thought of Percy as home, Percy would've been there, fighting alongside him so he wasn't alone, instead of here, standing next to a half-cleared dresser in an empty cabin, holding a faded orange t-shirt with the letters "P.J." sewn into the tag.

Theo Raeken’s original mission in Beacon Hills, given to him by the Dread Doctors, had nothing to do with killing Scott, and was actually about getting Malia to kill her mother instead. In this essay I will-

i saw ur post about young people getting into palia and it made me think because i've definitely seen a big shift in the official discord and also even ao3 (both through comments and fics released). it's pretty interesting seeing the community shift like this in real time (i've been playing since about august 2023)

oh i didn't even think about that! i've never been In the discord or any other ones so i haven't Seen that specific shift. but i know at the very least that it seemed very helpful and chill before. there was probably some drama but it always seemed like most people were just focused on sharing their tips, asking for help, talking about favorite characters, making suggestions for the devs, etc. it's interesting know that the discord vibe has also changed

can you tell me how it's changed? like has it changed in a similar way to the server chat with people being more rude/aggressive/immediately negative?

okay so here's something ae'm genuinely curious about-

-when talking about, for example, the megalodon, a lot folks say stuff like 'proof the megalodon exists'

-a lot of extinct animals are apparently considered cryptids by some

so where's the line drawn

cause for voie it's like. if you've got a sauropod in your background, yeah, you can probably call that a cryptid. if you've got an ivory-billed woodpecker flying around, that's not a cryptid. it's just not. maybe a long time from now, but certainly not right now

the megalodon thing is especially interesting for us, just because with the cryptid thing we at least kinda see why some folks might consider any extinct animal that's found alive a cryptid, but ae genuinely don't know why folks say 'proof the megalodon exists'

we know it exists. we have fossils of its jaws and teeth and other evidence it existed. like, yeah, it's not around anymore, but that doesn't mean it doesn't exist. are we missing something. it feels like we're missing something. are we overthinking this too much. do other folks not think this hard about stuff like that
