Waiting in the Garden

not seeing a lot of people on here talking about ICE murdering another man yesterday. His name was Lorenzo Salgado Arajou. He was a Mexican man living in Huston Texas. He was killed at age 52 and lived the past 35 years here in the USA, and was in the process of obtaining a work permit. He was shot and killed during a traffic stop that ICE claims was part of a targeted operation, and claimed he was “weaponizing his vehicle”- the same claim ICE agents made when they shot and murdered Renee Good.

wait……thinking about little twelve year old annabeth blushing and “hyperventilating” around luke... we know she lost the dgaf war ages ago but like. that’s so funny. and i know that’s her in her little puppy love crush phase or whatever but now i’m just imagining annabeth reacting the same way around percy and he’s so baffled by it. he’s used to “cool girl” annabeth who gets shit done and is rather blunt with him and has her moments of vulnerability around him but she’s always somewhat composed through it all. and now suddenly she can’t meet his eye and her cheeks are so red and he’s absolutely lost abt it LMAO

by god i miss the early days of the pjoverse where the big three kids weren't meant to exist because they were too powerful and dangerous. the other kids at camp had skills but not powers—apollo kids could sing and shoot, hermes kids were fast, hephaestus kids were good at metalworking, etc. really only the demeter kids had powers in helping the strawberry plants grow quicker and healthier. but like will had to sing a hymn to apollo and call on his father's power to heal annabeth's arm and it wasn't even completely healed. etc. but children of the big three were terrifying. so terrifying that the big three themselves believed they shouldn't be allowed to have them anymore.
