Reading The Hidden Oracle: Chapter 15 (SPOILERS)
I've figured out why Apollo feels more human than Percy. IT'S BECAUSE HIS NARRATION SOUNDS EXACTLY LIKE MY ANXIETY. That's what it is.
"I wished I had a doctor's note." Will is literally your son. I'm sure he'd give you a doctor's note if you asked politely. Does falling from heaven and being reduced to a shell of your former self count as an injury?
"Clarisse La Rue I could at least charm with my dazzling smile." *doubt*
"From here I could work my way up to scaring farm animals, then demigods, monsters, and minor deities." Nooohohooo he puts farm animals above satyrs!
"Suddenly, my fingers spasmed. I dropped the guitar in surprise." So, Apollo experiences on-and-off bursts where his powers come back, but they're temporary. This is definitely made purely for moments when Rick Riordan needs him to win a battle despite the odds being impossible.
"Chiara huffed. 'Idiota! Now I'll never get my turn!'" Damien and Chiara have a really cute dynamic. I ship it and I've known them for only three and a half pages.
"African nymphs Athena used to hang out with at Lake Tritonis." I looked up this lake only to find out that it either doesn't exist anymore or never existed at all :C
I love that the Victor twins are such advocates of "practice makes perfect" rather than just being good at everything. Idk why I expected that, but I'm pleasantly surprised.
"And, yes, of course it's possible for a demigod child to spring from [a homosexual] relationship." So... we're all asking the same question, right? Do they have belly buttons?
"I swear upon the River Styx--until I am a god again, I will not use a bow or a musical instrument!" Uhmmmmmm. So. Bad choice. And. I've seen the covers. Pretty sure he's got a bow and a quiver of arrows in at least one of them, so unless those are stage props, that oath ain't gonna last. How's he gonna fight? With a sword?
"I have a head injury . . . If I was acting strange, that's why." Why's this dude so worried about his reputation? Does he want to play the three-legged death race that bad? On an unrelated note, I recently found out that his name is Sherman because of the tank.

Ana Texas (Conclusion)
At the end of the day I was dreaming of cake
And / or ranking the films of Veronica Lake
If I spent a tad much on a lease for a truck
I would laugh with the quack of a discoing duck
Stella Stevens, The Gorn and Laurel Goodwin in 1962's Girls, Girls, Girls.

all u gotta do it just stand there in earshot and loudly go "oh no. if only someone were around who could handle being hit by a big attack/experience physical struggles of some sort, but i dont know anyone whose muscles and emotional fortitude are that strong. this is so sad, as i simply must, due to reasons, hit someone with this big attack. for the children." and laurel will come sprinting like i have arrived, worry not

I have a question for everyone if that’s okie
Do you guys like hugs and cookies? If so how would you all react to a hug and WARM cookies?
Aurora: Those are literally two of my favourite things in the world!! Warm cookies are the best, especially if they have chocolate chips!
Laurel: I will accept a hug or cookies if they are offered.
Avery: Oh yes I love cookies! And hugs are nice, they make me feel safe.
Lake: Mhm. I like hugs too, they're comforting. And cookies are tasty, even though they get crumbs in my bed.
Alexis: I don't need hugs, I'm not a sappy loser like this lot. I'll take the cookies though.

Exploration of Inyo National Forest at Convict Lake by Mark Stevens
Via Flickr:
While walking the Lakeshore Trail and taking in views of nearby trees and mountains of the Mammoth Area range at Convict Lake in Inyo National Forest. The view is looking to the southwest with a haze overcast skies from nearby forest wildfires. For the post-production look, I specifically added a Sunlight and slightly red filtered Graduated User Defined CEP filter.
