Imagine this magical book that the instant you touched it, it can sense what book you need at the moment and it becomes that book? NO MORE READING SLUMPS.

My jaw literally just dropped in awe. This is the best idea ever.

The Book of Requirement

Please

i dont think a series ever made me question my moralities more than pjo. like duh i didnt want luke to succeed in overthrowing the olympians and putting kronos in place but the gods ARE shitty to their kids and minor gods WERE ignored and the demigods were pretty much used to save everyone on olympus’ asses despite what psychological and physical injuries they’d sustain like, that is so fucked up man. i can see why luke did what he did and see that he did it wrong but it makes me wonder what would have happened had percy sided with him and overthrown the gods and what the world might be like

ethan and luke’s characters destroyed my understanding of my own moral compass for years tbh

definitely!!! percy jackson literally shaped my entire moral compass and how i view the world. as someone like luke who had shitty, overprotective, over-expecting parents who never gave me a chance to prove myself, i knew that if I was a demigod, i probably would have joined luke. i probably would have joined magneto’s brotherhood too. and seeing Percy, this abused kid, this kid with so many learning disabilities find his own strength, trust a few people, and still make the right choices no matter how difficult literally helped me understand as a 14-15 year old, that just because I was hurting, and the world is shitty to me, doesn’t give me the right to treat the world shitty too. Percy Jackson was a series that understood that not everything is black and white, and sometimes you just have to pick the lesser evil, and try to change it however you can. Silena’s spying, and her redemption was so important! Grover getting over his anxiety and crippling self-esteem was so important!! Annabeth and Thalia were in the literal same boat as Luke, and they made the right choices in the end, despite anyone and anything. If anything, Percy Jackson taught me that yeah sometimes you lose things. And that yeah, I maybe a pawn for my damn parents and a pawn in this damn world but I’m not going to sit here and be pushed around, but I’m not gonna bring down the entire world in anarchy either. If I’m gonna be a pawn, I’m gonna fucking do it my way. This is one of the reasons why I found Heroes of Olympus so disappointing. It didn’t explore any dark and mature themes really, and it was all tied up in a oversized bow to hide all the holes in the plot and that there weren’t any reaaall sad moments that can shape a reader….

The flood.

Saturday, August 13th 2016 Denham Springs, Louisiana Me and my friends were frantically texting each other, trying to get a hold of one another. We had no idea if they had gone under or if they were okay. One of my friends texted me saying “There is no water here, I am safe.” The same friend twenty minutes later texted me saying “My house is under water.” I have never been so scared in my entire life, I had no idea if my house was going to go under or not, or if some of my friends were even still alive. Many of my friends houses were full of water, them stranded on their roofs. I watched on the news as I saw the only town I have ever lived in be destroyed by water. My high school started filling up with water. Everyone was terrified. The most sickening feeling was getting text messages saying “Kayla, I am scared. I don’t know if I am going to be okay.”

Sunday, August 14th 2016 Denham Springs, Louisiana I woke up and looked out my window. I screamed when I saw the water had risen three feet. I ran outside to see the water was four inches from coming into my house. I checked on my friends, everyone I knew had lost everything or was stranded in their houses. There was no way to get out of my house, the water was chest deep and the currents were strong. Even if we wanted to leave, we couldn’t. We were stranded. The water started to rise, and then the rain came. The water started leaking into my house. I was scared. I was so scared. Soon after the water started coming up through the floors, the water stood at a stand-still. It stayed like that for what seemed like an eternity. I had no idea if it would rise suddenly, taking all of my belongings and memories with it, just like it did to my friend’s. The water then fell a foot. The water was no longer in my house, but stayed very high throughout the day. The threat was still there. We then began to realize that we had little food and water. We scavenged whatever we could from my house to make a small dinner for my family. I looked on the news, only to see that my school had been flooded over the roof. The school that only a few days prior I was laughing and learning at. I saw everything. I saw the neighborhoods and shops flooded up to the rooftops. I saw the children and babies being rescued by helicopters from a deadly situation. I saw the amazing Coast Guard and National Guard rescuing people by boat and helicopter. I saw residents going out, risking their own lives to save the lives of others. I saw thousands of people homeless with nothing to their name except the clothes on their backs and the children in their arms. I saw heartbreak, all across my city. All across my state. 

Monday, August 15th 2016 Denham Springs, Louisiana Today I wake up and the water has dropped two feet. I am one of the lucky ones, and I am eternally grateful. Many of my friends remain in shelters, unable to leave. There is no way to get out of the city. The roads are flooded and broken. I am so thankful that my friends are now safe, and out of harms way. I am stranded in my home, still unable to leave. Still unable to get food. I am so saddened by this destruction and this terrible situation we are all in. The places we made these memories at may be gone, but the memories will never be washed away. My heart is broken, but my spirits are not. I know we will come out of this strong. It will take a long time to rebuild my city, but the community is stronger than ever. We must rejoice that our family and friends have come out of this alive, not be mournful of the items we have lost. Items and buildings are replaceable but our lives are not.

This is one story. There are 40,000 more like it. 

Louisiana needs help, Tumblr. Anything you can do:

UGH. Reynico friendship is my biggest weakness.

Like, ‘another important person from him’. And by ‘another’, he’s referring to the fact that the first important person he has in mind obviously is Bianca. 

Guys. This is serious. Nico has issues even trusting his own shadow - and this is not even an euphemism - and now he trusts Reyna on the same level of his sister Bianca. He’d torn apart the whole fucking courtyard and… if this is not the greatest thing you’ve ever heard of, I don’t know what to say to you. 

THESE TWO. THESE TWO.

Get u a man that can do both
