The rules of Persephone’s garden don’t apply to him.
He’s not entirely sure why. He’s mortal, or at least half. No ichor flows through his veins, not that it helped Persephone. Perhaps it is because he already spends so much of his time in his father’s kingdom; perhaps the Fruit of the Underworld has lost its potency so far removed from the Ancient Lands, so long after Pam’s death.
Regardless, Nico gets to indulge.
Anything from the roundest, sweetest apples to the bitter tang of pink grapefruits, he has sat under the poplar trees and devoured. He likes fruit more than any other food group, more than any other taste. He has always had a sweet tooth. And his eyes eat as much as his lips, drinking in the glimmering sheen of dimpled lime peel and delicate pearls of round concord grapes. He has made himself sick eating strawberry after strawberry.
But his favourite, without question or pause, is a clementine.
The best he’s had, secretly, was not in his stepmother’s garden but in a tiny orchard in Algeria. Engineered for generations by human hand and grown under wide, sparkling sun, the skin had been bright and fragrant, pith minimal and pleasantly bitter, and thin-skinned globules of flesh so plump with juice they’d begged to be burst under his teeth. He’s dreamed about those clementines every week since he’d eaten them. If it wouldn’t kill him, he’d jump to the north African country every day and buy them in swathes.
Unfortunately, at camp, he’s stuck with what he’s got.
But they aren’t so bad.
“You have a sweet tooth worse than anyone I’ve ever met,” Will grumbles, poking at his shoulder. “And when she was 11, Kayla lived off Nerd ropes and Gushers for two months.”
Nico cracks a smile. “Kayla’s continued existence astounds me.”
“I do genuinely think she’s a medical marvel.”
“Don’t tell her that.”
“Believe me, I wasn’t planning on it.”
For a while there’s nothing except the tearing sound of Nico ripping off the peel of his citrus. He’s skilled enough to remove it in one go, but sometimes, as a random challenge, he tries to remove it in a certain shape. Today, for no particular reason, the peel comes off in the shape of a heart.
“I can feel you eyeing this,” he says, shooting an exasperated look over his shoulder. Will smiles small and guiltless, in response, raising and dropping his shoulder.
“Dunno what you’re talking about. Just wishin’ you’d eat a vegetable or two.”
Liar. Well, that exact sentence isn’t a lie — Will is such a bad vegetable pusher that he is often teased about secretly owning a farm — but it’s not what he’s thinking about. Nico isn’t stupid.
He sighs. “Here,” he grumbles, wedging his thumbs between the two hemispheres of the fruit and tearing. “You can have half.”
Will brightens. His smile is like clouds clearing, like the give of a snapping elastic. Startling, demanding, storm-cracking and loud. Eye-catching in every possible way.
“Thanks!”
He holds out a cupped palm, and Nico rests half the fruit inside it, fingers brushing the heel of his hand for no justifiable reason. It’s callused — most of his hand is callused. Nico wants to trace the outline of them, with his fingers and then his tongue.
He watches as Will brings the fruit to his mouth, happily munching on the whole thing without bothering to separate the sections, like always. Nico winces.
“You’re barbaric.”
“It goes to the same place! There is not logical reason to eat it section by section!”
“If the sections weren’t meant to be eaten one by one, they wouldn’t be naturally separated, you heathen.”
“Corn is naturally separated. D’you eat that kernel by kernel?”
Nico hates being friends with smart people.
Will laughs, and Nico’s eyes flutter shut, savouring.
“That’s what I thought.” He pops the last bite in his mouth, chewing and swallowing and smiling his dazzling smile, after, sticky citrus juice making his lips look shiny. “Thanks for sharing, Neeks.”
“Course,” murmurs Nico quietly, hiding his smile behind a segment of fruit. “Anytime.”

SPAWNTOBER 6: circus
it’s a comical yet devastating universe / but it’s still the kind of universe that i deserve
[image description: an illustration of Chip from Just Roll With It: Riptide. he is wearing the same red-and-gold suit, white cravat, and black top hat as pictured in the Episode #74 thumbnail, as well as red striped pants and brown loafers. he appears to be mid-bowing, with one leg tucked behind the other and one hand behind his back, the other in front of his chest. he is smiling, but also crying with somewhat dull eyes. he is standing on top of a podium and in a spotlight. behind him are simplified silhouettes of crowded stands and a rainbow circus-top tent. /end ID]

100 Shades of Xisang: 11. Marriage pact when they reach 40
“I do remember that promise, yes,” Lan Xichen coldly said. “I remember you had just been rejected by someone, and also you were fourteen at the time.”
“Excellent. Then I’ll start planning immediately,” Nie Huaisang cheerfully replied. “I’ll have a matchmaker get in touch with your uncle, of course. Let’s do things right.”
Lan Xichen pinched the bridge of his nose. “I sincerely hope this is a joke.”
“It’s not. I want a real wedding, with a real matchmaker, and a huge banquet, and…”
“Huaisang, you have lied to me for ten years and manipulated me without remorse…”
“A little remorse.”
“Remorse or no remorse, surely you’re not expecting me to uphold our pact to marry when you reach forty if neither of us have found suitable partners, not after everything that has happened?”
“Why not?” Nie Huaisang asked, genuinely confused.
“You don’t think it’s a bad start to a marriage?”
“No. Most people do all that after being married. But we did all the betrayal and hatred before the marriage, meaning that we now get to be happy!”
The worst part, Lan Xichen thought, was that in a very twisted way he could see how that would make sense.

Reaching New Heights of Productivity: Leveling Up Through the 7 Stages
Tumblr media
Let's get real - who couldn't use way more productivity superpowers these days? We all have mad untapped potential when it comes to getting stuff done. But maximizing your effectiveness can feel impossible.
That's why you gotta shift your mindset! View your productivity skills as something you can always take to the next level. Build them continually through 7 advancing stages that I like to call:
Level 1 - Newbie
We all start as newbies! At this basic level, you finally create structures like daily to-do lists and calendar reminders to wrangle the chaos. But you still get derailed on the daily by distractions, while procrastination leaves you hustling down to the wire, leaving you pissed. Been there, my friend!
Level 2 - Put Together Beginner
Now you crush it by establishing routines to hold the line. But you overcommit to meaningless meetings and extras tasks that overload your schedule. Can't bring yourself to just say "NOPE"! And sticking firmly to your plans is quite hard when fires keep starting left and right! The struggle is real...
Level 3 - Grasshopper
Here is where major progress mounts defending against distractions. You finally block addicting social feeds and disable those pesky notifications to find your flow...
Level 4 - Efficient Expert
Now we're cookin'! You've gained mad skills knocking items off your daily to-do's quickly. Delegating tedious stuff, collaborating with your squad, and setting up automation like data collection has freed up mega time! But continuing adulting on those stretched out goals still needs some help...
Level 5 - Sharp Shooter
This is when you become stone cold eliminating distractions and hyper focused on big rocks priorities. You set goals with military precision following SMART models. Health regimens with smoothie cleanses, 7 minute workout apps, and vision board manifesting amp up your drive! Tons of progress, but more beast mode is possible!
Level 6 - Virtuoso
You produce at an unbelievable level through balancing workload and life fuel. Tracking mini-wins gives you little bursts of dopamine to stay hyped! Your toolkit is fine-tuned and failures bounced back from fast thanks to Jedi mindset mastery. Sky-high standard through next level prioritization makes you prime mentor material!
Level 7 - GOAT
You're undisputed GOAT status stems from insane discipline hardwired to ambition/purpose. Ruthless in culling tasks with highest magnitude impact daily. Your zen workflow allows handling vastly more output without compromise. Congrats - your productivity sorcery makes you a legendary icon! Time to pay it forward mentoring other up and comers.
While you're exploring the ins and outs of boosting productivity on the blog, consider taking your journey to the next level with my exclusive Productivity Planner. It's designed to enhance your daily routines and simplify your path to success.
This planner isn't your everyday organizer; it's a practical companion in your pursuit of productivity. Imagine your to-do list transforming into a well-coordinated symphony of accomplishments.
Ready to navigate your daily tasks with precision and finesse? The Productivity Planner is crafted to make your workload feel more manageable and, dare I say, enjoyable. It's not just a planner; it's a tool for turning aspirations into achievements.
Explore the possibilities of improved productivity. Check out the planner by clicking here.
