im curious to know why you never read BoO!

when it initially came out i saw a ton of bits and pieces of it on tumblr and so much of it made me cringe that i literally refused to read it. and then i never got around to it. i believe the percyannabeth finale kiss/makeout in front of everyone was my breaking point. i came across that and completely checked out

that was also the time where the writing was getting so incredibly ridiculous that i thought i’d just save myself the trouble. then ToA came out and my hope was renewed. now we’re back in the trenches again

Nevermind im saying it

to be completely honest i don’t think being a ‘late bloomer’ in terms of romantic and sexual relationships has any pro whatsoever. no matter how much others want to coddle us. i think that not having these relationships has completely fucked me over for the rest of my life. no matter how humble I can be or how understanding of a partner i could find, the sad reality is that i will be wraught with inexperience as an adult and no amount of learning or preparation will make up for the fact that i have no idea how to navigate something like this because i simply don’t possess the lived knowledge of it. it will leave me at a chronic disadvantage that sadly others will likely take advantage of and there’s genuinely no way to avoid that. of course personally i will never actually willingly subject myself to an experience like that because not only do i find it stressful, i find the idea humiliating. so i literally will not be participating. i remove myself from even the idea of it. the opportunity of love is not happening this time around

me when I don’t let myself say something horrible mean and pessimistic

oh wait that kronos idea is not so dissimilar to the post i made about caligula’s ‘memory’ terrifying jason at random. jason being haunted as a concept ig
