"Don't worry kid, you're dad had plenty of kids he stopped helping out when he lost interest"

Theseus, who was helped by poseidon multiple times, but in the end was thrown off a cliff by the citizens of Athens and drowned. Drowned in the ocean, the very domain of his father.

Kymopoleia, who was neglected by Poseidon once he found her to be too violent, left to wander his abandoned palaces, given up as a war prize to man she didn't even want with no choice at all.

Bellerophon, who was given the pegasus to tame as a gift from Poseidon in some myths, dying by falling off of it on his way to Olympus.

I'm just saying, that line wasn't a random throwaway line by Ares, he means it.

THE TRAVELING FARE, characters

They could make any man dance, any sad maiden sing with joy. They were a flash of boldness and color in a world of terrible sorrow and grey.

Frankly some of you should be hornier over weirder shit. The fear of being too genuine is the enemy of art. Be a bit of a pervert. It's good for the health. Doesn't have to be a sexual thing just own up to being a bit obsessed in some cringe shit it's fine.

“ obliqued, disguised, almost could be described as sly. like standing at the edge of cliff at the darkest hour and looking down at that active, brutal fluid of blues and blacks.”

“Greyjoy.”, called Jon, when has he ever sounded like that? had he always looked so like his father?, “Marysa has been pleading for your life ever since you got here. I’ll spare you, for her sake. You can live one hundred life times and never deserve that girl”

“ I did”, Theon thought. I have lived one hundred lives. — Theon Greyjoy and Jon Snow’s reunion on we’re in love

[theredquill]

the different vibes of my asoiaf fics

of being reckless and young ( how damage gets done ) : a song of love triangles and ghosts

we’re in love : a song of pretending to be dead and love songs

i will never die : a song of blood sacrifices and lore

passarine : a song of prophecy and bisexuality

writing a garbage essay feels like you’re the cow who gave birth to the two headed calf. in the morning, my professor will wrap him in newspaper and dissect him on a cold operating table. but here he is alive, under the pale glow of my computer screen. he is beautiful. there are twice as many logical fallacies as usual.
