luke castellan x aphrodite!reader
summary: luke confesses some his stuggles to you, then you confess some of yours to him.
words: 1.7 k
!! MAJOR ed tw !!
a/n: this is just me venting about my ed lol. this is my first fic so please be nice <3
Tumblr media
There was something off about Luke. You could tell the moment you saw him. Even though you’ve only been dating for 4 months now, you know when something is wrong. During the party that the Dionysus kids insisted they threw (for pretty much no reason), he wasn’t his usual smiley and outgoing self. He seemed reserved and quiet. You were outside the dining pavilion talking to some other kids from camp. In the glow of the torches, everyone was laughing and having a good time except for him. You weren't either, but you tried to look like you were. Your arm was wrapped around his as you leaned against him and listened to the conversation, though you couldn’t focus on what they were saying. You kept glancing up at Luke every minute or so to see if he looked any happier (he never did). 
After the conversation fades out, you pull him away to a quiet area and whisper to him, “Luke, are you okay… you seem… off.”
He sighs and looks away for a second before answering, “Let’s talk by the lake.” 
Anxiety grows in your stomach. What could this mean? You just nod as he grabs your hand and takes you to the lake. The water is pitch black in the night and there is a chill in the summer air. He lets go of your hand and looks down to see your face. 
“I’m sorry… there’s just a lot going on right now,” His hand scratches the back of neck as he says this. 
“You don’t have to be sorry, Luke. I’m listening,” you say, as you look him in the eyes and gently grab his hand. “I know it must be hard since Percy and Annabeth went on that quest, I know she was like a little sister to you.”
Nervously, he clears his throat. “Yeah, but, um, it’s not just that…”
“Oh…what is it?”
He sighs and lowers his head, “Look, just promise me that you won’t view me any differently after I tell you this.”
“No, no,” you say hastily, while shaking your head. “There’s nothing you could ever say to me that will make me view you differently, Luke. I’ll love you no matter what, I promise.”
Luke looks you in the eyes again. “Nothing?”
“Nothing,” a reassuring smile grows on your face.
He can’t help but smile with you. He’ll remember that. “Look, it’s just about my dad… Do you ever feel… betrayed by our godly parents?”
Taken aback by the question, you stop to think before answering. “Betrayed how?”
“Like, they just ignore us, like we’re nothing to them. Like we’re not even their children.”
“I-I guess so. I mean I feel like that sometimes.”
“That shouldn’t be how it is, though,” He sighs and keeps talking. “I don’t think Hermes even knows most of his kids. Most of my half siblings have barely met him, if at all. It’s just so… infuriating. He goes around, siring kids, and then sits up in Olympus and just leaves them. I’ve spent my entire fucking life wondering where my father is. Waiting for him to maybe one day come and talk to me or just acknowledge my existence. But, no. I’ve only met him once, because he can’t be bothered to get to know his own fucking kid!” 
For a moment, he runs his hand through his curls and exhales before he continues. “And what I’m about to say might sound… bad…but seeing Percy get claimed just like that after finding out he’s a half blood for, like, what a week? It just intensified everything I felt before… Like some kid just shows up and now he’s loved by everyone and claimed by his father. And yet, I fight everyday and what do I get? Nothing! I’m the best sword fighter in camp, I pray, I give offerings, I’ve done everything right. But it’s still not enough for him… I’m just so fucking tired of these Gods just doing whatever they want and not caring who they hurt…”
After saying all that he turns back to look at you. You're standing there in stunned silence, unsure of what to say. 
“Luke, I… I’m so sorry,” you walk over and give him a hug. He hugs you back and rests his chin on your head. A few silent moments pass as you stay like that. The sound of campers excitedly chatting and partying could be heard distantly behind them. 
“Do you see me differently now?” He asks, quietly.
You pull away, but keep your hands on his arms, gripping him gently. “No, Luke, I really don’t. I told you nothing you say will ever make me view you differently.”
“I know it’s just that… most people would think that I’m… weak for feeling this…”
“Weak?” You look shocked. “How could anyone ever think you’re weak? You’re one of the strongest people I know!” You kiss him softly on the cheek and smile reassuringly causing a slight blush to appear on his cheeks. 
“I understand what you’re saying, trust me. I, of all people, understand what it’s like to do your best to get your parent’s love and praise… and yet, it’s never enough,” You say, trying to give him a sympathetic look.
“You understand?” Luke asks, his face softening a bit. 
“I understand all too well…” You say with a humorless laugh. “I mean, don’t get me wrong, I love my mom, but…”
“But?” 
“Well, y’know with Aphrodite being the goddess of beauty and all…there’s, um, a lot of pressure for us to look a certain way…”
Sighing slightly, Luke brushes a strand of your hair behind your ear. “Is this about… dieting?” He says it carefully, unsure of how to word it correctly. 
“Yeah,” you look away, ashamed to be telling someone this. “I’ve been counting calories since I learned to count. I obsess over every little thing I consume. I eat as little as I can, yet it always feels like too much. I go on runs or swims everyday… and it’s still never enough. I’m never thin enough… I love my mom, but… I can’t help, but feel like she made me start doing this.”
Now it’s Luke’s turn to stand there in stunned silence. “I had no idea… that you’re going through all this. I-I’m sorry, I should’ve noticed.” He thinks back to everyday in the dining pavilion when he’d look over to you at the Aphrodite table and see you playing with your food instead of eating. Or all the times when you’d say you weren’t hungry and would change the subject to anything besides food. Or all the daily runs he’d see you go on. Or, most concerning of all, the quick weight loss. How all your clothes that used to fit, now hang over your body like a shower curtain. Your once cherub-like face became pale and almost gaunt with dark circles under your eyes and a tired expression always. How has no one noticed? How has he never noticed?
You just shake your head and give him a gentle smile. “Luke, it’s okay. I tried my hardest to keep it hidden. Also, my mental state isn’t your responsibility…”
“But I’m your boyfriend,” grabbing your hands gently, he looks at you with a sympathetic expression. “It’s my job to care for you, especially when you’re… sick. Does anyone else know?”
“No,” you shake your head once more. “You’re the first person I told… It’s not a big deal, I’m not even that sick.”
“What?” He says, his eyebrows furrowing together as a shocked expression etches onto his face. “Not that sick? Y/N, you’re starving yourself! That sounds pretty sick to me.”
You just shrug in response.
“How long have you been doing this?”
“Since like,10 or 11. I told you, I’ve been counting calories since I learned to count.”
He stands there quietly for a bit, as his heart sinks. “That young?”
“Yeah,” you respond. 
“If you don’t mind me asking… How many calories do you eat in a day?”
“I-I don’t know,” you lie, you know exactly how many calories you consume, down to the stick of gum you’d chew for a snack. “Like about 400-800…” You try (and fail) to fight back a smile that grows on your face. Despite how unhealthy it is, you can’t help, but feel proud of it. 
Luke, on the other hand, just feels shocked and concerned. “That-that’s nothing… and for so long. Y/N, you need help. You’re killing yourself.”
“I know, believe me, I know… But I can’t stop.” 
He reaches up and cups your face, rubbing circles with his thumbs before kissing your forehead. “I wish you could realize you’re perfect the way you are. I wish you could see yourself the way everyone else does,” he says it softly. “I’d love you, no matter how you look.”
“Really?” You ask, while a blush appears on your cheeks.
“Really,” He says, tenderly grabbing your waist and pulling you close to him. You rest your head against his chest and once again, you stay like that for a while.
Slowly, you pull away and smile softly at him. “I’m getting tired, can you stay with me tonight?... Not to do anything, but just like to… be with me…” You hastily added the last part, but hesitated. Most guys don’t react kindly to you saying you don’t want to do anything.
“Of course,” Luke responds. “But can you do me a favor?”
“Anything.”
“Can you try to… eat better tomorrow? Please, just try…”
You hesitate before answering, “I will. I’ll try.”
He smiles brightly, “That’s my girl.” He gently grabs your hand and walks you to Cabin 10.
You spend the rest of the night together in your bed. However, Luke doesn’t get much sleep. 
He holds you close to his chest as you sleep and thinks about everything you had told him. He hates himself for not noticing sooner. But a very small part of him feels relieved. If your mom caused you this much pain, then maybe convincing you to join him in taking down the Gods wouldn’t be as hard as he thought…
He hates himself even more for thinking that.

ASTROLOGY OBSERVATIONS (2)
🗣 Not professional astrologer! It’s only based on my own experience, people that i know, and self-observation. So please take with grain of salt! :D
Venus in Libra peeps could be those who keep nagging about how they want a relationship so bad. (i know a few people in my life with this placement and they can't stop complaining about how single they are help)
Leo moon are lying to themselves if they say they don't like attention. (perhaps don't realize it yet?)
A lot of Venus in Virgo people that i know at some point in their life will questioning whether they really want a marriage or not. (yeah me too)
Someone said "i can't see myself getting married. I don't know, it seems unrealistic to me" yeah you are Virgo Venus in 12th house retrograde.
I mean, Venus in Virgo itself already make this person picky when it comes to love, and then the confusion and unrealistic idea they had because of the neptune influence. And in retrograde? jeez. i believe they have been in a relationship but then the relationship they had never meet their expentation because this people have a hopeless romantic idea of what romance is.
Venus in Sagittarius / 9th need a lot of freedom. Have a special place for foreigner in ther heart. Love someone who can keep up with their wild energy. Love people who is aware of society problem. Might also into smart people. Probably like to joke around with people close to their heart as well. (or people in general)
Moon in 7th house / Moon in Libra find comfort from being around people.
or they might feel the need to be in a relationship so that they won't feel lonely. Might dealing with co-dependency. (i know it's not your fault but please seek theraphy)
Friend of mine have 7th stellium (5 planet) and i swear to god, the attachment issues they have with is not a joke. They struggle with being on their own and need someone approval in every aspect of their life. Feel like they are incomplete if they're single. Too selfless, too giving. Later in life, people with this placement might have to realize that they should learn to stand on their on feet.
Neptune in 3rd house might having a hard time to communicate what they want to say. They also might say something they don't mean.
Uranus in 3rd house saying something in such a random way. i can't understand you sometimes,,,,,,
Chiron in 2nd house peeps could deal with feeling unworthy and feel unsave. They could feel guilty if they spend money on themselves. My Friend with this placement struggle with fear of end up lacking money all the time.
TW : ED!
i've met a few people with Chiron in 1st house, all of them stuggle with self-image and body dysmorphia, and also struggling with Eating Disorder. :(
END OF WARNING
Those with Jupiter and Saturn together in 8th House will likely to be extremely wealthy. They are hardworking and blessed with money.
They might also are curious about the deeper things in live, spirituality and the theme around 8th house but at the same times fear of the unknown and uncertainty. They might be those people who want to dive deeper into sex (or just have high energy on that) and desire devoted relatonship but hold themselves back and blocking themself from intimate relationship because a deep fear of commitment. It's very frustasing when jupiter and saturn are in the same house.
this is actually synasty thingy but i felt like i need to mention this, DO NOT MESS AROUND WITH SOMEONE YOU HAVE 8TH HOUSE SYNASTRY WITH WHEN YOU’RE NOT READY AT ALL🩸👄🩸 i have my experience with someone who my planets fall into their 8th house (stellium), and they are OBSESSES. I help bring their true and darker side of them so now they’re attach on me, it’s sorta my fault for trying to fix them tho that’s why i’m telling you stop messing around with this synastry if you’re not ready.
8th house placement… did astrology became your free therapy because they can validate ur emotion and understand you so damn well? Same👍🏻
Mercury-Saturn aspect, i know it’s a good thing to be careful with ur words but please say something if you really want to say it. You literally limiting ur self sometimes and overthinks a lot
There someone i know said that they don't know how to get mad and have Mars-Saturn aspect. These people (Could be Saturn in 8th house as well) might been told during their childhood that it's wrong let their temper loose so then growing up they feel guilty to express their anger and try to burry those temper.
They also could be those who struggle with supressed sexuality.
idk but my mom have Scorpio Mars and used to make a lot of sexual jokes during my childhood. (please don't do that)
Sagittarius Asc peeps i knew in the first impression look so innocently religious and calm, and they always turns out to be not. Like, literally
Thats it✨ thankyou sm and you can give me a feedback 💥 cheers peeps🫶

Some Kanker headcanons/projection/analysis? (mostly about Lee)
I think the reason they act/think they way they do is both due to growing up with a hooker who has a distain towards men, but also because of their mom's financial issues. They probably had to move around a lot to live with multiple of their mom's exes, which would've been weird for any kid, and also didn't help much with making friends as they were always switching schools. (Kids in peach creek literally avoid them like the plague lol)
From my own experience being born a girl with a deep voice and a syndrome that made me taller than most other people I went to school with and have gotten picked on multiple times I think Lee has also been bullied for her height and "looking/sounding like a boy" since those are generally viewed as more masculine traits.
Another thing about the Kankers I've been thinking about is the way the present themselves. I dont think any of them like the way they look. I imagine they think in a very "everyone says im [blank] so thats what im gonna be" kind of way. They know their reputation and they go out of their way to seem as gross and menacing to the other kids as possible. 
This is just all a front though. Just like Eddy, Lee doesnt want to let her sisters or any of the other kids notice her vulnerability (which is a trait she passed down to both of her sisters). This explains why the Kankers got so scared of the Eds in "A Twist Of Ed". They got intimmidated the second the Eds stopped acting scared around them, and were only able to get back the upper hand once it was Eddy's turn and they noticed how petrified he was.
they only really have each other and I think because of that Lee being the oldest has always been protective of her sisters.
I stuggle to understand why so many people sympathize with Eddy while the Kankers are so heavily demonized, I know they're antagonists but they're essentially just troubled kids using the same defense mechanism who dont know any better and probably havent experienced anything else. Can people stop acting like they're iredeemable monsters please.
rant over. Moral of the story is that I am a Kanker apologist.

Thank you for the SSS tag @martsonmars @aroace-genderfluid-sheep @artsyunderstudy @wellbelesbian and for the WW tag @erzbethluna @thehoneyedhufflepuff @palimpsessed @nausikaaa @forabeatofadrum
Happy new year!!!! I hope we have a very safely productive year in our art!!!
I’ve been working in my ballet AU, trying to make chapter 9 hurt more now that the fic is rated M, and I’ve been thinking of the boy’s mental health, especially Baz’s, so here’s a bit I worked on in the morning. ANGST.
TW for mentions of ED and Self Harm:
I thought I didn’t have the same problems with food as I used to, but apparently I do. Maybe in a less concerning light but they’re still there. I also thought I didn’t struggle with… self harm, but I do. Does that make me weak? Falling back into old patterns when I had already dealt with them?
It was so easy for me to stop eating, to grab the razor and just… I’m ashamed of how little convincing I needed to do all those things again, things that took me years to overcome. I thought it was all in the past. I thought I was over with that. And I’m afraid that those things will always be in my head; that they will never fully leave me alone. Will I always have to deal with them? Forever?
I’ve been wanting to read Baz with SH for a while and when I had the chance I took it. Some fics I’ve read that come with Baz stuggling with the same always make it seem like Simon magically erases Baz’s problems or maybe he doesn’t but it’s like Baz never deals with this problem ever again, and that’s not true. I wanted a bit of myself in Baz because I write what I want to read.
Also, I’m looking at you @erzbethluna because we’re working on something…
Sorry for the angst, so have a cookie 🍪 and tagging: @ileadacharmedlife @fatalfangirl @urban-sith @yeonjunenby @castawaypitch @bazzybelle @sillyunicorn @dragoneggos @ivelovedhimthroughworse @ionlydrinkhotwater @captain-aralias @palimpsessed @thehoneyedhufflepuff @erzbethluna @aristocratic-otter @nightimedreamersworld @chen-chen-chen-again-chen @larkral @angelsfalling16 @onepintobean @cutestkilla @johnwgrey @you-remind-me-of-the-babe @hushed-chorus @jasonfunderberkerthefrogexists @bookish-bogwitch @moodandmist @ineffable-grimm-pitch @kohatenz @katmiscellanious @whogaveyoupermission @ic3-que3n @raenestee

I think the ADHD/autism thing wouldn't even be bad if it was done by people who know about it, rather than people who (subconsciously or not) conflate those things with a lack of intelligence
tbh a lot of these headcanons originate from fans who actually have adhd/autism projecting their experiences onto characters they like. which in and of itself is fine.
obviously it becomes a problem when people who don't have adhd/autism use those popular headcanons to explain why some characters lack intelligence or lack self-discipline or are disorganized or are unble to take care of themselves. which, yeah, some ppl with adhd/autism stuggle with those things, and that's not anything to be ashamed of. but neurotypical fans using adhd/autism headcanons to perpetuate harmful stereotypes is not cool.
another thing that i think can be a problem is when white fans with adhd/autism apply their experiences to characters of color and aren't careful abt it. honestly, any time white fans project literally any aspect of their own experiences onto a character of color, we need to be careful. i've gone through depressive episodes where i couldn't make myself out of bed, but projecting that onto ed would be perpetuating the idea this fandom has that ed is incapable of taking care of himself. and my experience with adhd is not gonna be the same as a poc's experience, so just copy and pasting my life onto my headcanon for a character of color is gonna do that character a huge disservice
anyway adhd ed good, adhd with zero attention span who forgets to take care of himself and is incapable of running his ship bad

Literally cried today when I found out Olive Oil is 100 calories for like 1 tabelspoon. I made sweetpotato fries myself today and the recipie said to use Olive oil. I felt bad but my fatass added it anyway, bc I thought It wouldnt be that bad.
Nah man. Its bad 95cals wasted. Im not going to add the oil next time I make the fries. I guess Ill use this as a reminder to ALLWAYS look up the cals on something before using it. I cant belive Im so stupid ugh.
The worst part is that my mom was in the kitchen while I had my whole little Episode and she was just so mean. She said that It didnt matter and I shouldnt make such a big deal out of it. She acted like I was compleltly wierd for freaking out so much and made me feel like garbage for it, compelty invalidating me in the process. Like she knows I have an ED and I stuggle with food a lot.
You know If I was underweight and finally diagnosed she wouldnt dare say that stuff. She'd be happy Im trying to eat at all.

i used to have the type of 4n0r3xia that i simply wanted to be sick and look sick and make everyone else around me jealous of my looks and i seriously wanted to feel like shit so that i would feel valid in my stuggles.
i mean i guess i still kinda want that because i really miss my ed and i miss the time when i was at my lowest, but now i feel like i’ve been stuggling so long and i’ve gotten trapped in the hospital system so i really don’t need any validation. it doesn’t matter anymore.
as i’ve gotten through more and more shit i’ve matured a lot and i’ve realized how my ed really ’acts’. i may not be as purposely self-destructive as i used to, i may not self harm anymore, but it doesn’t mean my ed has just vanished. it’s still here, in my brain, it’s gotten stronger and smarter like fucking vecna or some shit and it acts in more subtle ways. my perfectionism has gotten worse, my self-image has gotten worse, my expectations for myself have gotten higher.
it all spins back to food and exercise, the way i speak, act and seem to other people. i HAVE to be perfect, i HAVE to have control, and failing is simply not an option. it’s just not an option. i know it’s a self-destructive mindset so yes, i guess i haven’t gotten any better at that but at least i’m not purposely trying to die. i just want be perfect at school, be normal, but in a perfect way.
idk what the point was but i just had this thought so i wrote it down …

Hook : can fly, eats invisible food, stuggles with being an adult
ED bitches : fast so hard they feel like they're levitating, describe the food they didn't eat in detail to avoid having to eat anything, reject their adult bodies
I rest my case.

TW: ED
every night i try on outfits and it hurts because everything is to big and the shame when i have to ask for a smaller size and having to shop in kids stores. the embarrassment when people say they want to look like me well you really don't. being skinny isn't being perfect and the worst part is i try to gain weight by eating so much until my stomachs hurts until i gag until i want to throw up but i keep it down no one knows the stuggle when belts are to lose and your bones poke out.

Idk if this is positive or not, but I’ll look up the word fatsp0 to find ur popular post abt it and I relate with it. And I always check up on u. Our weights are similar. I feel like ur account is like a harm reduction tool for me idk , I can’t find ppl with Ed who are the same weight. 🗿 i hope this isn’t weird lol
Not weird at all! Actually it makes me really really happy that it's a harm reduction tool for you ! /gen
It's definitely a stuggle to find ppl with similar stats at a heavier weight, but it is definitely comforting to see someone who has a similar weight and struggles in the same way you do. I hope you're doing well ! Sending love your way !!! <3
