#how are we 15 chapters in???

[aroaceleovaldez]

HoO is so funny to me when you actually think about the ages of all the characters. Octavian is 18. Percy and Annabeth are 16, almost 17. Reyna is presumably 16. Frank just turned 16, Jason’s about to turn 16. Leo and Piper are like 15. Hazel’s like 14 and a half, and Nico is 13.

The Death Sibs are both the youngest and oldest on the Argo II. Octavian is a college freshman getting into petty drama with a bunch of high schoolers. He gets told to shut up at one point by a random 8th grader. Everyone is scared of the 8th grader. We Sent A 13 Year Old To Superhell and he came back weirder, Just Like Middle School. TLH was just three high school sophomores being sent to do a task and it going Exactly Like You’d Expect. Percy’s the only demigod on the ship who can legally drive (though Reyna gets her drivers license at some point before TOA). What Is Happening.

#pjo #hoo #heroes of olympus #riordanverse #my second favorite thing related to this is like every time Hazel references someone's age especially in SoN it's just. blatantly incorrect. #she goes into very specific detail about how she's 14. detailing like exactly how many months it had been since her birthday #and when she died and when she was brought back. just like ''okay. im 14 and a half. got that? good.'' #''anyways here's Frank. he's 3 years older than me'' like literal next chapter. we are told Frank is not 3 years older than her. #Hazel: Here's my older brother! [Nico is younger than her in literally every way feasible] #ive just decided Hazel is an unreliable narrator who is just really bad at guessing/remembering how old people are #which like. adhd mood. forgetting how old everybody is. #and she has the bonus excuse of saying her sense of time is skewed from being a ghost for so long #but it's just so funny every time she's just. with the upmost confidence. blatantly the wrong answer. #i want a scene of Hazel looking at Percy and just going ''hm. I bet he's like 20.'' and then learns he's 16 #and she's just [surprised pikachu] #also we know it isn't an error that she's 14 cause in TOA she's like ''oh yeah im learning to drive!'' #so she's 15 by then #it is however an error that *Nico* is said to be 14 in hoo cause he's 12 in TLO and 14 in TOA #but we know in HoO the reason that error was made was cause Rick hadn't figured out Nico's birthday yet #and he was flipping it between January or March #so he just forgot how old Nico is for a series and then we went back to normal

coming soon(...ish) to an ao3 account near you: the idiot's guide to blindfold chess

in the meantime, the full piece of this ^^ is on patreon!

#talk tag #i. debated on whether or not to post this piece #its not TECHNICALLY spoilers its just twins hug but like. still #but someone on discord suggested just posting a preview and i was like. ... i Could do that. and then. #also yippee official title drop #anywayyy we are more than halfway through november and i am more than halfway through this fic (theoretically lmao) #i am still gonna have. a LOT of editing to do #but as far as the first draft goes id say im over halfway there #very very tentative date for chapter one assuming everything goes well the REST of november: december 15 #maybe sooner maybe later depending on how writing and editing goes #but. yeah #very excited for this. hope everyone enjoys as much as ive enjoyed writing it. and also being ominous and vague on discord. lmao

[coffeebanana]

as someone who is used to blurting out every single idea i have about my fics the second it occurs to me, WRITING A FIC AND KEEPING THINGS TO YOURSELF IS SO HARD I AM ONLY 4 CHAPTERS IN HOW DO PEOPLE DO THIS

#kayla rambles #mtl fic #idk how long it'll be exactly but probably in the range of 15-20 chapters? #possibly not that long because i do seem to be combining chapters from my initial outline #but i also never finished the initial outline so we shall see #and i'm still making things up as i go too... #but kjsdbfkdsbj driving me insane that people cannot grasp the full extent to which this is driving me insane #even my discord friends for the most part don't know what this is about which is WILD let me tell you #but yes this secret fic has consumed all waking thoughts for the past 5 days it's insane hehe

[find-me-in-hell]

chapter 106 of hnk dropped and its reminding me that 1) ive been reading/keeping up with this manga for three years 2) it was on ch95 and on hiatus then... its been three years, SEVERAL hiatuses and only 11 chapters sometimes i wonder why i even bother

#will also mention how it went on hiatus i few months before i read it #and then it was 15 months later for the next chapter #pain pain pain #its fine though because we are getting ANOTHER chapter next month #haruko ichikawa youre spoiling us!!! #hnk #houseki no kuni #lotl #land of the lustrous #this is not a hate post or complaint #i love this manga #i just wish there was CONSISTENCY

[sandinthepipes]

God themselves couldn't convince me that there isn't pure cocaine imbued into Merthur fics

#how is it that no matter the context when i read a merthur i feel so much #god its so good #i love them so much I'm screaming you don't understand #so they've met literally not even 2 chapters ago #literally nothing is happening and when arthur is even just mentioned I SCREAM #merlin dear boy i do not know how you manage to not fucking combust on the spot #im reading (we can burn) brighter than the sun by batsutousai #screaming i tell you #230824 words of pure bliss #I'm only on chapter 15/26 but it is GOOD #merlin #bbc merlin #merthur #arthur #fanfiction reccomendations #fanfic #fanfiction #fic #ao3 #bbc merthur

2: I just heard the announcer saying “start”, Kinaka-kun

They're starting, seriously!?

Calm down, it's in fifteen minutes; now it's the tine to line up at the starting line

Let's go, Rokudai

That's why....

3: Sorry for the wait....

Yeah

2: Sohokuuu!!

Win!

I mean, of course they'll take the top goal....

Honestly, aren't they unmatched?

Yeah

3:If we lose here, there'll be no Inter High

Winning for sure, no, we never know what's going to happen, that's road racing

4: Yes

Three years ago....

5: Sometimes I remember that day....

Pag 15

1: The qualifiers in Anesaki with Kinjou-san and the other third years

2: The first years are here

3: Finally in third place, Sohoku!!

What did the old man say in the end?

That.... they'll take the finish line, with a difference of one minute....

Can they really do something like that?

4: Catching up.... and even creating a difference of one minute..

Can they really do that?

If they really can....

5: It's overwhelming

6: Sohoku is the top!!

Sohokuu!!

Pag 16

2: Back then, we were first years, and they were so strong and overwhelming that we could only think that our senpais were incredible

3: But I get it now

5: To open such an overwhelming gap

6: They worked so hard to prepare for that

Pag 17

3: That's right!!

4: We spent so much time practicing and thinking about what could happen and preparing for it!!

5: And we also prepared so hard for this

6: Yeah!!

's right!!

Pag 18

1: Let's run with everything we have!!

2: Uh!!

Sohoku's presure got stronger!!

Waa

No, don't run with everything you have!!

3: Let's go!!

4: Yeah!!

Yeah!!

Pag 19

Pag 20

There's also a lot of people cheering for our local high school in Kamogawa!!

Kamo..!!

Do your best!!

3: Kashiwahigashi, take it this year!!

Yeah, got it!!

Pag 22

2: Do your beest!

Thaaanks a lot!

There are so many bikes!

So colorful

3: Now, is the parade section over?

Sohoku's Naruko?

4: 'lright

5: Should we go now!!

6: Waaa Naruko jumped ahead at the start!

Sohoku's Naruko!! Isn't that bad news!?

Waaaaa

7: Hahaha, it's alright!!

Huh!?

Pag 23

1: “In road racing, you can't win alone”!! That's the theory!!

We have the numerical advantage! If he's left alone, he'll eventually get exhausted and fall!!

Kashiwahigashi Nomura-san!!

2: I'll show you

3: This is Naruko Shoukichi's flashi riding!!

Like this

Pag 24

1: I'll reach the goal!!

I'll away with the first attack and then win, and make a legend!!

2: No no no, Naruko is definitely bad news!

He'll get away and win on his own, that guy!

Catch him!

Chase him!!

4: Thanks to Naruko-kun, the first half will be easy

Yeah

While Naruko-kun is in the lead, we'll be protected from the wind

6: By the way

Pag 25

1: Kinaka and Rokudai.... until the last moment, they weren't at the start line with us

Ye-yeah

2: I- I'm sure they ran late while getting ready.... and are now hesitant to cut through everyone to come to the front

I guess they're starting from way behind us

3: I don't see them at all

4: Do we leave them behind?

You're so quick to make a decision!!

5: They were too flustered, chosing them was a mistake

Your humor is too dry, Imaizumi-kun!

6: Let's wait for them

We can't do that

Ehhh

7: No, seriously speaking

Pag 26

1: If they can't get here by themselves, then we don't need them

2: This race

3: also serves as the team members selection

Pag 27

3: I.... in the end we ended up at the very end of the line, teh

4: Is Imaizumi-san in the lead?

Pag 28

1: And there are so many people, the density is so different from that of middle school's races!!

Ngh!! I can't get used to this way of riding!!

2: I'm sorry, it's because I took too much time in getting ready, teh

And now you, Kinaka-kun-

3: Whataver, there's no use in talking about it now

Anyway, let's go up to where Onoda-san and the other are!!

4: If we can't get to them

5: Our race ends now!!

hehe alice’s chapter of the fic is posted & available to be read HERE :-)

#i think i might keep things chronological in the sense that the next chapter will be what followed this one #and we can see our first glimpse at sarah/alice shenanigans #also it’s so funny to think about how in future chapters sam is going to be 17/18 and being bossed around by 15 yr old sarah JSKSKLSS #i have so many thoughts about the hijinks these kids get up to before paulie even gets his proper introduction chapter #its kind of like the whole fic is backwards from sarah’s introduction #this is what i get for not story boarding it properly #post: personal

[sukugojo]

different anon here, i came here wanting to clarify something but i saw that your reply took the words out of my mouth HAHAH it's funny seeing some of us shippers sharing the same braincells and having similar opinions. love this small community but i hope it gets bigger (wake tf up people!!! are 15 consecutive canon suspicious homoerotic chapters not enough for people on the international jjk fandom to finally start shipping them?!)

the something being that i don't sense any malicious hateful intent coming from either gojo or sukuna. this is a rare enemies/rivals trope imo. like their whole theme is about teaching love and trying to maybe come to a mutual understanding despite fate cruelly putting them on the opposite sides, as they are really just different sides of the same coin. and that's one of the many reasons why i love this pairing. it's not easy to find a non-toxic enemies/rivals dynamic portrayal in media so i'm glad that jjk is an exception.

p/s: i'm an extremely introverted person so unfortunately i won't have the social battery to continue this conversation, but thanks for reading my ask! i really want to interact more with my people bc yall are lovely and have great tastes but socializing drains me so much

YES YES ANON, they really don't hate each other at all. one thing i was thinking about is how gojo doesn't seem to think of sukuna as this malicious Evil thing that other sorcerers (rightfully) make him out to be. he... really hasn't been shown to harbor any ill feelings towards sukuna, even after all he's done.

and their fight is playful, they're playing, they're having fun, it's recreation. sure the fate of the world is at stake here, but that's not what it's about for them at all.

there's not hate, not even dislike, it's simply. well to steal canon's words. love. an overwhelming sense of pleasure, of satisfaction, of fulfillment.

and i LOVE that u mention "despite fate cruelly putting them on the opposite sides" bc YEAH YEAH, that's part of the tragedy of them. there's too many factors outside their own personal satisfaction at play.

and i think there is also a bit of a paradox in there. they're looking for someone with whom to share that solitude that comes at the lonely top. but... that's something i don't think to be possible. sure they're equals, that's the thing, but at the same time, their existences clash just by definition. bc there can't be two strongest. there can only be one.

both can't live at the same time. if one lives, the other can't live by definition.

no one understands them bc they're the strongest, but once they find someone who might be able to—and who does—dont they stop being the strongest?

#sukugojo.post #(but also scratch all that. we are not gonna think about that bc if either of them die i will be inconsolable they can't fucking die bc tha #would make me. incredibly sad. OTL) #gege should just have them marry each other. why can't they just be TWO strongest why the fuck not. The Strongest husbands. #a true power couple #got kinda sidetracked there haha but yeah! i feel we all just a share a collective braincell that gets passed around hkdfjhsd #'are 15 consecutive canon suspicious homoerotic chapters not enough for people to finally start shipping them?!' SAY ITTTTTTTTTT #and i think what sets them apart is that they're rivals on OPPOSITE sides who are not laden with hate. #bc there's a clear cut good-evil dichotomy. we have the good guys and bad guys who are against each other and whose goal is to stop e/o #sukugo are on opposite sides but still hold no sense of hate or disdain or anything for each other. #there's simply regard and expectation and (i'm sorry for saying it all the fucking time but it's true) love. #dhsjfdfs it's almost like they operate on a completely different plane to the others (which well yeah they kinda do as the strongest) #they don't particularly care about that whole thing. #they only care about their position as strongest and what the other can give them in regards to that #jjk #sukugo #gosuku #u know i mentioned once in a post i made in my main blog how gojo only speaks of sukuna in a cheerful reverent way #which was half just me being shippy but this made me think about that #bc ok that could be said to be simply his way of being BUT we DO see gojo show disdain for people he dislikes. very clearly. #he speaks super ill of the jujutsu world higher ups. but he doesn't ever extend that dislike to sukuna #who's u know. the Embodiment of Evil #while gojo may be an outwardly cheery person when he doesn't like u. u WILL know. he's actually quite honest there #and he shows respect for sukuna. considers it an honor to be sukuna's rival. #(tho he IS still a fucking brat <3) #god sorry i will shut up now cshfhaskdjsakffs #alas!!! it's really alright anon i totally get it. u dont have to answer. that's kinda the great thing about asks haha c: #but if u ever wanna talk more about them well the askbox is always open :D #GONNA END THIS BY SAYIGN THAT I AM SCARED I AM NERVOUS ABOUT THE NEXT CHAPTER AAAHHHHHHHH

[hopeworth]

do you ever read a 200k word fic with an impending sense of doom. this is going to end badly. this is not a happy ending.

#reading The donquixobros fic and i’m so nervous i’m going to throw up #because one of them dies in canon at the end of this. we KNOW it ends badly. fuck do we know it ends badly but why are there still 15 #chapters left. how much more of my heart and guts can you rip from me

[maaaxx]

one of the most annoying things about writing is that sometimes the solution to a miserably dull chapter/portion of the story is to delete everything and start over from scratch.

#i just deleted 8 thousand fucking words of chapters 14 and 15 of ihiap #and i hate it but i hated the words more #i made a pact with myself that im going to stop posting chapters that i hate just for the sake of updating #and this is how you go almost six months without an update #on the plus side we get 1500 words of Zuko and Katara talking shit about everyone else #i think im going to combine what i was originally going to do for 14 and 15 #and also combine what i was going to do for 16 and 17 #so i can post two pretty long chapters instead of 4 normal chapters #that means this next chapter will be the last one before things get really interesting and im so excited #ihiap #max thinks shes relevant

tell me why i'm considering opening the doc and writing fanfiction during my lunch break. ON MY PHONE

#talking tag; #totp tag; #i've been meaning to make a tag for the fic so. there #ok if anyone is curious (probably not but like. i like talking about these things) i split the fic in sections in my head #so every ''kimberly finds her father in blah blah'' is a section and that's how i keep track of them #so chapter 1 had sections 1-3 and chapter 2 had sections 4-5 #and chapter 3 will have sections 6-7. it has to. for structure reasons #but section 6 is a very important one and she's at like. 8.5k words at the moment???? and i still haven't gotten to the last scene #OF THE SECTION. THEN THERE'S ANOTHER SECTION #which should hopefully be shorter (around 5k or less is my guess) because fewer things happen but. god #we're looking at a 15+k word chapter. if you're reading the fic hopefully you like long chapters cause!!! it'll be a long one!!!!! #also i am once again pointing out that if you're reading the fic and have absolutely anything to say about it PLEASE tell me #i love talking about this fic she's my child that i created. she's like a clay sculpture to me #i do mean to reply to ao3 comments but i'm shy 😭😭😭😭 but i reread them all a billion times and cry about them every time #i'm still thinking about the lengend that dropped that page long comment on chapter one. king (gn) if you see this i love you #when i reply to comments yours will be first. know that you have me and nat's infinite love forever and always. #truly i hope you like it and cand find peace in it. lord knows we all need it #well. anyways! i think i might edit the doc i'll see

I love (read hate) how I Robert proceed to hit Cersei and then, his first reaction to that is to blame her for that.

We love a good victim blaming abuser in this household.

Hey LLAU readers: I'm planning an extra one-shot set in the LLAU universe (it's the Imp + Skizz backstory from Skizz's perspective). Help me figure out a title?

season 1 was seriously so epic the way we have this protagonist who is not only faceless but also nameless like it was so epic the air of mystery and fun times peace and love on planet earth

#brot watches the mandalorian #im so many episodes away but now im reminiscing about his name reveal in chapter 8. GAH #ITS SOOOO GOOD i cant wait #you all know how i feel that the face reveal should have waited until chapter 15 #but the name reveal in chapter 8 was genuinely so fucking great #and half of that was because we went an ENTIRE season without knowing the main character's name it was a great buildup #post thats brought to you by the subtitles referring to him as The Mandalorian
