Care to elaborate on Percy’s crush on Beckendorf?

YES this is my true passion. i have too many thoughts so this is wildly half-baked but it’s what i’ve got

beckendorf is older and so many things that percy wants to be, but he’s also someone percy can deeply relate to and that is a recipe for a small bi boy to develop one hell of a crush. i don’t think it’s a raging “i want to date him” crush, but it’s there. 

beckendorf is the first person to show kindness to tyson. he’s a leader. he’s got plans for a normal life after the war, which is something percy desperately wants for himself. beckendorf got his girl and is one of the only people percy talks to about annabeth. i love their friendship, but it also has major “do i like him or do i want to be like him” vibes. by tlo i think they’re firmly Peers but for earlier books i 100% see percy harboring a crush he has no idea how to handle

also percy described beckendorf as having muscles like a pro ballplayer’s like oh sweetie ur bisexual is showing

Do you miss Belgian terribly? I will likely have to leave my cat at my parents’ house when I move and I am so dreading it!

yes :( my mom has three cats though so I’m making do with them + with the hourly pictures that Jimi sends me

I’m obsessed with a fly on the wall tbh—I must have read it four times at least? It’s the perfect amount of angst and hurt comfort for my tastes & I catch new hints about their past lives every time I read it! No pressure but I’m super excited for the next chapter 😊

aaaaaa oh my goodness!!!!!!! thank you so much ;w; this made me so happy and came at such a good time, i’ve been feeling pretty down about afotw lately haha. thank you i’m so glad you’re enjoying it!!!!! incidentally, i finished the first draft of chapter five last night, and so i just have to edit while riki does their art, and we’ll be good!! so that update should be coming sometime this week!! :D <3

I think getting something just because it’s pretty is one of the smartest ways to choose a tattoo tbh! I feel like there is judgement against getting a tattoo without meaning (tho admittedly I mostly get this from people who aren’t tattooed themselves) but I look at it like ‘I’m never going to regret this cuz it’s beautiful! I like it!’ And that produces some of the coolest most creative tattoos I think! Yours looks great :)

i love this take! and tattoos are kind of imbued with meaning for me based on when i got them. they age with me! taking care of them is taking care of my body! that’s inherently meaningful
