If you ever go to Ann Arbor, Michigan, go to Zingerman's Deli. They will make you any sandwich on the menu (including the $20 reuben) served on latkes instead of bread, FOR NO EXTRA CHARGE. They are a Jewish-style deli and their latkes are housemade ans delicious. Around hanukkah they make sweet potato ones as well. And you can get them with sour cream, housemade applesauce or one of each...

i will likely never be in ann arbor, but god do i suddenly wanna be.

HEY WRITERS!!

Does anyone know of a good resource for character sheets, only for groups instead of a single character?

For instance, say you're writing a mafia story and you want a resource that'll help you suss out the origins of the criminal syndicate.  Or maybe you're doing a story about a tribe of elves and you want a way to organize the tribe's history.  Things like that.

Any ideas?

Annabeth/Jason ficlet - Such a Bad Idea

Hey friends! Contributing to the recent Jasabeth revolution with a new fluffy one-shot:

Title: Such a Bad Idea

Characters: Annabeth Chase, Jason Grace

Rated: T

Also, I'm dedicating this fic to AJ (aka gaymercutio): Six months ago, you took a chance on a brand new blog.  I wasn't sure why you followed me (what's a courfius? :-D ) and I'm not sure why you stayed, but you are lovely and wonderful and I'm glad we're friends. ilysm and I hope you like it.

Enjoy!

“We should really talk about this.” Annabeth sat down on the couch next to Jason and placed her hand on his knee.

Jason carefully laced his fingers through hers. Looking up, he sighed. “I know.”

“This is such a bad idea,” she said regretfully. She wished more than anything that it wasn’t true, but Annabeth was nothing if not logical.

He nodded. “For one thing, I’m not sure I’m completely over Piper.” She and Jason had broken up about six months ago. “I mean, it’s not like I’m still pining after her or anything. I know it’s over, and really, it’s for the best. But…”

“Considering how long you were together,” Annabeth broke in, “and considering everything you went through, it takes time to heal.” She squeezed his hand. “If you were actually over her this quickly, I’d be pretty pissed at you.”

Jason gave her a half-smile, then continued. “And then there’s Percy.”

“What about Percy?” Annabeth shot him an incredulous look. “He’s the one who’s been encouraging us in the first place!”

“Yes, and I know that the two of you have your arrangement. He says he’s completely cool with it.” Jason shrugged. “But he’s my friend. I don’t want to betray his trust.”

“Don’t worry about Percy,” she reassured him. “He and I have been talking about this since before you moved in. If he has a problem with it, he’ll say something.”

“He told me that, and I believe him. I believe you both. It’s just...” His words trailed off, and he glanced down at their clasped hands.

Annabeth reached up and touched Jason’s cheek, lifting his face gently until he met her gaze. “Honestly, it’s our friendship that worries me the most. What if we ruin it somehow? What if we can’t go back to being friends? It seems like a lot to risk.”

Jason took her hand from his cheek and placed her palm flat against his chest, covering her hand with his own. “I don’t think I could bear losing you as a friend.”

Annabeth was transfixed by the raw emotion she saw in his eyes. “So we agree then? We should walk away, for the sake of our friendship?” She forced the words out, though she was fairly certain she no longer meant them.

“That would be the smart thing to do,” he said, his voice barely a whisper.

She chuckled. “Since when do we do the smart thing?”

They both sat, barely breathing. Their eyes locked on one another, until the brush of Jason’s hand on her cheek made Annabeth’s lids flutter closed.

“Annabeth, I…”

“I know,” she murmured, leaning in.

Kissing Jason was like being in an unfamiliar place that somehow felt like home. Unlike the sweet, almost chaste kisses he’d surprised her with the night before, these burned with intensity and just a hint of desperation.

They clung to each other, Jason half-pulling her onto his lap as they sought to eliminate any distance between them. He inhaled sharply as she trailed kisses down his neck and along his jaw. “This is such a bad idea.”

Annabeth lifted her head and pressed her forehead to his, their lips nearly touching. “Do you want me to stop?” She would, she thought, if he asked her to.

Jason closed his eyes for a moment, then exhaled. “Please don’t.” He kissed her, so achingly sweet that any resolve Annabeth might have still had evaporated.

It didn’t make any logical sense. She knew that.

But when it came down to it, there was very little in their crazy, demigod lives that did make sense. Her relationship with Percy was completely illogical. It was ridiculous that mythological monsters roamed the world and impossible that she and her friends had lived to see their 20th birthdays.

Maybe it was a bad idea, but Annabeth wasn’t one to walk away from happiness when it found her.

I’m not really a huge fan of LoVe, but it does make more sense as the series continues. You start to understand it more towards the end of season 1. librarean replied to your post: I’m about halfway through the first season of... I didn’t either first season. It gets…more understandable? books4belle replied to your post: I’m about halfway through the first season of... I don’t know if you are a Buffy fan. But just think of Logan as Spike. He grows on you… like a fungus. These are glowing recommendations, everyone! Haha
