Percy, in the middle of battle: goddess, save us all.
Someone: don't you mean gods?
Percy: nope. Most of them are unreliable. I only pray to Hestia, and when I asked she said that she preferred she/her pronouns.
klaus mikaelson tumblr are we ALIVE or am i just a ghost haunting my childhood hotties
blink twice. like once. scream into the void. something.
because i am this close 🤏 to posting a multi-part klaus mikaelson fanfic series, and i need to know if anyone is still out there before i emotionally commit and start dropping chapters at 2am like it’s 2014 again.
this is a serious inquiry (it is not serious at all):
do we still read klaus fic?
do we still thirst over emotionally unavailable immortal men with trauma?
do we still follow long, angsty, slow-burn series that WILL hurt us?
or will i simply be whispering “always and forever” into the abyss?
about the fic:
klaus-centric (obviously)
set in the The Vampire Diaries / The Originals universe
multi-part because i don’t know how to be normal
angsty, romantic, dramatic, emotionally unwell
written with love, chaos, and unresolved mikaelson trauma
reimagined from a fanfic i wrote as a teenager TEN years ago, titled Battles, which i accidentally deleted off wattpad
based on ✨ vibes ✨ and memory ✨ so pls bear with me while i resurrect my own lore
if you are: still here. still feral. still emotionally attached to klaus mikaelson.
LIKE. REBLOG. COMMENT. POSSESS ME. i need a sign from the universe before i press post.
— tags because tumblr tags are basically summoning circles. pls let me know if i should add any

An infographic of eight major military failures through history. Across history, significant military campaigns have often begun with overwhelming force and confidence in rapid success, reflecting the strategic assumptions of powerful states and leaders. From the Roman advance halted in Germania under Augustus (reign 27 BCE-14 CE) to modern imperial ventures, such operations relied on perceived superiority in numbers, technology, or organization. Yet these assumptions frequently underestimated unfamiliar environments, resilient opponents, and logistical constraints. When plans prioritized swift victory over flexibility, they exposed structural weaknesses and the limits of ambition. Campaigns led by Napoleon Bonaparte (reign 1804-1814, 1815) and Adolf Hitler (rule 1933-1945) demonstrate how early gains could unravel once supply systems faltered or defenders leveraged terrain and mobility. These failures often extended beyond the battlefield, reshaping political orders, weakening dominant powers, and marking decisive turning points in wider conflicts.
“There are so many appealing angles to this manuscript: historical, art-historical, textual and cultural,” he said.
“There’s the Christian element – the Quest for the Holy Grail; the chivalric element: the adventures, the quests, the jousts, the battles.”
The sale is likely to attract many potential bidders, according to Donadoni.
“It should interest institutions because it’s a virtually unknown manuscript of one of the greatest medieval romances, but it could interest private buyers for the same reasons that it appealed to the long line of owners who have treasured it over the course of the past 700 years.”
He added:
“It has been a privilege to have been able to work on a manuscript of this rarity and calibre: the stories are universal and it has so much still to offer in terms of research and enjoyment.
As Merlin himself prophesies in the text itself:
‘And the story will forever be told and gladly heard for as long as the world lasts’.”
The sale will take place at Christie’s in London on July 8.
