Drew: beauty is in the eye of whomever is looking at me
Drew: you want to hear a gay joke? Malcolm: not really, but I don't think that's going to stop you Drew: you're right, now, drumroll please Malcolm: no Drew: Connor Stoll Malcolm: what Connor: i'm her gay joke Malcolm: *looks appraisingly* Malcolm: that was pretty good. it would have been better if she'd shoved you in a closet for you to come out of. Drew: this is why we're friends Connor: no, this is why lee hates us Drew: can't it be both?
Malcom : *Sitting in the corner rocking back and fort contemplating his whole life*
Annabeth : What happened to him?
Connor : Drew told him that he was built like an improper fraction
Annabeth : Dam-
THIS! BECAUSE IT'S SO TRUE!!!
clearly there's some sort of internalised misogyny and trauma from bullies in you, because if you honestly think a teen girl who is mean to people* is worse than someone who literally tried to murder a twelve year old (percy), and lead to the deaths of several other teenagers (manhattan) you have another thing coming
*i should add that from what we see, Drew Tanaka is mean to people from what we see of her. We see her three days after the unofficial camp leader has been kidnapped from the one place everyone thought was safe and less than a year after she fought in at least one battle against her former friends and family, likely watched her sister die, and is probably dealing with PTSD from that.
Let's not forget she's Sadie Kane's age, which means at most we're seeing her when she's 13-14. 14, and in charge of at least 4 siblings. Also, the fact she's counselor means she's been at camp the longest. that means, that at the age of (likely) thirteen (possibly twelve) she was made counselor after being at camp the longest. that means she likely also fought in the battle of the labyrinth, which meant she participated in the minor skirmishes preceding manhattan that percy mentions, which means that this 14 year old is a war veteran by the time we see her for the first time.
Drew is frequently put down in Piper's mind, not only for being mean, but for being girly, for liking pink and perfume and caring about her appearance. that isn't feminism, that's internalized misogyny. That's piper in a 'not like other girls' phase. piper is an unreliable narrator but we aren't talking about that.
also, drew isn't wrong that piper knew nothing about silena. like, piper was thinking about betraying them the entire time she was at camp for her dad.
and silena was a traitor. i don't deny she was probably groomed but honestly what a slap in the face it must have been to be thirteen, returning to home, a room you share with six-ten other kids, and to know that some of your best friends are dead, in no small part to your sister who sold them out.
but nobody is talking about that, because Annabeth Chase and Percy Jackson, the heroes who are barely there, say Silena's a hero, and that means it's true, right?
It doesn't matter that her friends are dead, doesn't matter that mothers will never see their daughters again. That drew will never forget how her sister's blood felt on her skin. because if they say it, it must be true, right?
the fact luke castellan (mostly forgiven for being hot) (and angry, but drew tanaka is angry and none of you forgive her) is a goddamn tragedy and honestly she deserves a retcon or at the very least for people to understand that HOO is not black and white, and for you to look at characters that way is a detriment to analysis.
so much love for characters who are desperately unsure whether they’re a good person, a redeemable person, a person worth saving, but are absolutely certain that they’re a grade a hottie
I've always loved these two as characters but now you made me love them as a pair 😂
malcolm: 'You'll never find the body' is such a boring threat. A better threat would be; 'You'll never stop finding the body.' drew, bored: Or just say, 'They'll be finding parts of you for at least four months...and you'll still be alive for three of them.' malcolm: Now that's a threat! connor, covering their own ears: *horrified silence*
Pairings: Jason x Reyna , Jason x Piper
Tags: Mutual Pining
Warnings: Hurt/little comfort
Summary: Jason hated the situation he ended up in. Being so far from the girl he grew in love with after spending so many summers together. It was his fault though, he had been too much of a coward to be by her side through a tough time and instead chose to entertain a girl he thought could take his mind off her. He chose Piper, but he wanted Reyna. . .
𝙅𝙪𝙡𝙮 𝙏𝙬𝙚𝙡𝙫𝙚
It was a regular day at Camp Half-Blood, everyone was enjoying their Camp activities and trying to let go of the stress they've acquired from the school year.
Jason on the other hand was trying his best to not crumble away from the guilt that was eating away at him.
He wasn't even where he knew he was supposed to be. Camp Half-Blood wasn't the Camp Jason went to every summer, that Camp was Camp Jupiter.
Yet he wasn't there.
Why?
Because he was too much of a coward to argue against his father, that's why.
He didn't wanna be here, He had no purpose here, yet here he was on an open field completely unfamiliar to him. Bow and arrow in hand because archery was one of the activities at Camp Half-Blood.
"Your form is horrible"
He looked up to see the girl who said that. Brown skin with matching short choppy brown hair with thin braided strands on the sides of her face, and eyes that seemed to change color under the sun. Piper was beautiful, no one would doubt that. He was lucky to have her, but he didn't want to be lucky.
"Really?" Jason said "I don't think it's that bad"
Piper walked closer to Jason and stood behind him "Your back isn't straight and your shoulders are tense" Piper said, she pressed her palm against his back making him fix his posture, before putting them on his shoulders which made him even more tense "Relax, I don't bite" She teased.
Jason could feel her hands through his shirt, they were soft and quite small, though that was expected since Jason was half a foot taller then Piper.
"Somehow I don't believe that" Piper didn't reply and instead just let out a giggle.
Jason looked at her and smiled, he tried to relax his shoulders and put all his focus on the target in front of him. He didn't know why he was taking this so seriously, archery wasn't a popular activity on Camp Jupiter, so he never really got around to practicing it. His favorite activity to do at Camp Jupiter was sword training, the camp had a spacious arena with real swords made out of wood.
He and Reyna would spend all their free time battling it out while spitting out trash talk to each other, it didn't help that both of them were extremely competitive.
Jason was stronger then Reyna, but she had always been faster, and more agile so their duels were nothing short of exciting. Just thinking about them makes him smile.
Reyna would get this determined look on her face whenever he would ask her to spar, followed by a quick witty remark. She would tie her long black hair into a low pony tail before each of their battles- that's how you know she was getting serious- then let it down when they finished. Just thinking about 𝘩𝘦𝘳 makes him smile
"Are you not gonna shoot?" Piper's voice snaps him out of his daydream, he unintentionally lets go of the arrow and completely misses the target. Jason sighed at his failure meanwhile Piper tried to surpass a laugh "Don't worry, you'll get better" She said "We have all summer together after all"
Yeah... All summer...
𝙇𝙖𝙨𝙩 𝙮𝙚𝙖𝙧'𝙨 𝙨𝙪𝙢𝙢𝙚𝙧 had been an unforgettable one, unfortunately not for good reason.
Everything started out normal. Everyone was happy, games were played, Camp fire songs were sung, and marshmallows were roasted.
It wasn't until the end of the summer where things got bad for Camp Jupiter
𝘼𝙪𝙜𝙪𝙨𝙩 𝙉𝙞𝙣𝙚𝙩𝙚𝙚𝙣 𝙤𝙛 𝙡𝙖𝙨𝙩 𝙮𝙚𝙖𝙧
Jason had just finished arts and crafts and went off to find Reyna.
He spoted her looking after the younger Campers near the lake wearing a swim vest on top of a purple Camp Jupiter T-shirt with some black shorts. He went over to her and struck up a conversation.
"Has anyone drowned yet?" He asked sarcastically.
"No" Reyna said as she crossed her arms above her chest "But you will if you start getting annoying" It was safe to say that Reyna was not impressed by his joke, but Jason laughed at her response anyway.
"Calm down" He said "I was just trying to lighten your mood. You always seem so tense when you're looking after younger campers"
"Of course, since we've been going to this camp for 8 years, that makes us senior Campers, and it is our job to make sure that the younger ones are safe and have fun" Reyna explained, the way she said it in such a graceful and pristine manner would have made people think that she had political training.
"Is that what you really think or do you just feel responsible because your parents own this place" Jason asked, Reyna elbowed his ribcage earning an "OW!" From Jason.
"Don't mistake responsibility for culpability, Jason Grace" Reyna said
"Whatever you say, your majesty" Jason joked but Reyna only rolled her eyes
"You're one to talk" Reyna said
Jason looked at Reyna with curious confusion "What's that supposed to mean?"
"You've never once stepped a toe out of line, you learn the rules and follow them to a T, you never make assumptions and always try to listen to more then one side of a story" Reyna explained "I mean, I like that about you, but damn you are uptight"
"That's because my father would make me do very fun things whenever I do something he doesn't approve of. You seem to like the kind of power struggle we have going on around at Camp" Jason playfully taunted as he poked a finger at her shoulder
"I do not! Plus I'm not listening to a Nepo Baby" Reyna said while swatting his hand away.
"Hey!" Jason yelled, Reyna laughed at his offended look which made Jason roll his eyes but also feel warm on the inside because he loves to hear her laugh "You know- you just hurt one of your campers feelings" Jason said, referring to himself "That's not very responsible if you, Reyna"
Reyna's laughter started to fade so she just looked at him with a smile.
The pair had a moment of silence for a couple of seconds, taking in the scenery around them and blushing when their hands accidentally brushed against each others.
"Ehm... Speaking of responsibilities" Reyna said "A few new campers wanted to try the rock climbing wall but needed a senior camper to supervise, so I told our Camp director that you'd do it"
"Alright" Jason's said "when?"
"In about 20 minutes, so you better go now"
"Seriously? Now?" Jason said in an overly dramatic way with a frown on his face "We just started hanging out and you wanna get rid of me so soon?" He put his hand in a fist and placed it on his chest where his heart should be to insinuate it being crushed.
Reyna just laughed at him again "Don't be so dramatic, besides..." She took his hands in her own and looked at him "We've had quiet the summer together" Reyna said as she smiled at him.
Jason blushed and turned his head away from her. They bid their goodbyes and Jason went off to the rock climbing wall. Where everything would eventually go wrong.
𝙅𝙪𝙣𝙚 𝙏𝙬𝙚𝙡𝙫𝙚 𝙏𝙝𝙞𝙨 𝙔𝙚𝙖𝙧
"YOU WANT TO TELL ME THAT THIS WAS ALL JUST AN ACCIDENT?! HAVE YOU SEEN THE STATE MY SON WAS IN?!" A woman that looked like she was in her late 40s yelled.
Sitting in the spectator seats in the courtroom, unable to do anything other watch her father get yelled at by this woman- Reyna tried her very best to put on a brave face.
Last summer had been so messy that even now- a brand new summer year has come and it still hasn't been cleaned yet.
Her father had insisted that she should be at Camp Jupiter and not here and she agrees, none of this should have been happening.
She should be spending time with her friends at Camp Jupiter as they all teased her about Jason, hearing how they couldn't believe that they weren't a couple yet despite being so close for over 8 years.
Despite the disaster of last year, she hoped that she and Jason would finally get together, but Jason didn't even attend Camp Jupiter this year. She knew that it was probably because his father didn't want him to continue going there because of this scandal, but even so, she expected to at least receive an update from him. Even though it was unlikely since he also hasn't been answering her texts nor picking up her calls. She can understand why but it still made her mad that Jason couldn't stand up to his father.
𝘕𝘰𝘵 𝘦𝘷𝘦𝘯 𝘧𝘰𝘳 𝘩𝘦𝘳
They used to spend hours and hours texting and talking on the phone. He would talk to her about fencing and the dozen other after school clubs his dad would make him take while also ranting about how terrifying his dad could be sometimes. While Reyna would talk about her day and occasionally rant about annoying customers she would encounter while working at her after school job.
It was hard to believe that she can't even get a hold of him now.
They went to two different schools in two different states so the only time they got to see each other face to face was during the summer, despite that, the distance was never a problem between them, they were best friends, they found a way to talk to each other, yet the one time of the year where they were supposed to be together and he's not here.
"I completely understand" Reyna's Father pleaded "We are willing to compensate and take responsibility-"
"IF YOU WANNA TAKE RESPONSIBILITY THEN SHUT THAT PLACE DOWN!" A man that looked to be the same age as the woman cut off Reyna's father mid sentence.
This was torturous.
"Alright alright, Mr. and Mrs. Harris please calm down" The Judge said as he hit his gravel against the table in an attempt to get everyone to settle down.
"Your honor... How could you expect two parents to calm down? Especially after this?" The woman- Mrs Harris- argued. Everyone could see the way her eyebrows furrowed as her face wrinkled in anger " I sent my son to that summer Camp thinking that it would be good for him- you know- get away from screens and do some physical activities. I expected him to get home to me in one piece at the end of the summer, not suddenly get a phone call telling me that he sustained major injuries after falling off the rock climbing wall! And I certainly didn't expect the cause to be old faulty equipment that you couldn't bother to replace!"
"For the last time Madam! We buy new equipment every two years! That couldn't have been the real reason" Reyna's father reasoned "Besides, isn't it too much to ask our Camp to shut down? It's not like the kid died"
Reyna winced at the last sentence her father said, or rather, shouldn't have said.
This of course made Mrs Harris loose her mind.
"EXCUSE ME?! WOULD YOU PREFERRED IT IF HE DID?! EVEN IF HE DIDN'T DIE HE WAS STILL HEAVILY INJURED!" Reyna's dad went silent. Mrs. Harris' lawyer was trying to calm her down.
Reyna began to drown out the noise in the courtroom, she reached into her pocket to pull out her phone, she scrolled through her messages and clicked on the one titled "Blonde Boy 💝" where Reyna sent walls of messages to Jason
𝙒𝙝𝙚𝙧𝙚 𝙖𝙧𝙚 𝙮𝙤𝙪 :

He didn't reply to a single one, but she knew that he saw them, Jason was not the type to leave their messages unread.
Reyna gripped the phone on her hand until the tip of her fingers turned red. She hated Jason at this moment, for not being right next to her, for disappearing, and for not answering her texts. But despite that she still desperately tried to reach him.
She typed and erased messages to send to him over and over again, not knowing what else to say, until she felt a tap on she shoulder. Reyna looked up and saw her father.
"The judge called for a recess" Her father said with kind but tired eyes "c'mon let's get something to eat, you must be starving" Reyna nodded and got up from her seat.
Walking next to her father, Reyna looked at her phone again, she deleted the message she typed and started typing a new one.

Jason had read and reread that message a pathetic amount of times over the month, so much so that the message was embedded in his head.
𝘞𝘪𝘵𝘩 𝘔𝘦.
𝘚𝘱𝘦𝘯𝘥 𝘪𝘵 𝘸𝘪𝘵𝘩 𝘮𝘦.
Reyna was openly saying that she wanted to spend the rest of summer with him like they were supposed to, and God knew that he wanted the same, he wanted nothing else in fact.
"Your food's gonna get cold if you just stare at it, Jason" Jason looked at Thalia- his older sister- as she continued to eat.
"Do you not like Barbeque? I could ask our Head Councilor to get you something else if you want" Piper asked, kind and considerate as always, now he was starting to feel bad.
"Oh no, I'm good, just... Thinking about stuff..."
"What kind of stuff?" Piper asked
"Just... Stuff" Jason answered
"... Okay... I'm gonna grab a plate of fruit, you want some too?"
"Yeah sure, why not"
"Grab me one too if you don't mind" Thalia said
"Alright, I'll be back in a bit" Piper said before leaving the two alone in the little picnic table they were sitting on.
"She's nice" Thalia said "Pretty too. Mom picked a good one for yah"
"Why is mom so quick to try and pair me up with some random girl that goes to my school who I've bearly even talked to until now? She knows that I-..." Jason stopped talking and closed his mouth. He thought about Reyna 24/7 ever since the accident but couldn't bring himself to talk about her or even mention her name. Jason gripped his spoon as a dark cloud loomed over his face.
Thalia placed her utensils down as she looked at her younger brother.
"Then why are you going along with this?" Thalia asked.
"What?"
"I'm asking why you're going along with this, Jason. Why didn't you put up a fight when dad told you that he was pulling you out of Camp Jupiter and signing you up here in Camp Half-Blood?"
"I-..."
"When mom told you that there was a girl she wanted you to get close to, why did you say "sure" ?"
"Well I-"
"Why do you always say yes to Piper whenever she asks if you two can hang out?"
"Because I-"
"Why did you tell mom that you and Piper were getting along well?"
"Because we-"
"And why are you leading both Piper and Reyna on?"
Jason was getting pretty irritated since Thalia was asking him all these questions but wasn't letting him answer them, but her last question had him speechless. So instead of answering he took a bite out of a barbecue skewer and stared off into space.
Thalia sighed and placed a hand on Jason's shoulder.
"Listen, J... I don't know a lot about Reyna, I don't know a lot about Piper either. But I have seen you with both of them and honestly... Your smile is a lot bigger when you're with Reyna and you have a long history with her, but you care way to much about what she thinks of you. You're not like that with Piper, with Piper, you don't care, you act however you want, you act like yourself. I'm not trying to get you to choose one over the other but if you don't, then you're gonna end up with neither one of them"
Jason stared at his plate. Thalia was right, but he didn't need to be told who to choose. He didn't even have to contemplate. He wanted Reyna, he knew he wanted Reyna, but Reyna wasn't easy, if he wanted to be with Reyna then he was gonna need to do something his father would not approve of, and God knows how much he doesn't wanna do that.
"I know..." Jason said "I just don't know whether or not I can put up a fight"
"Don't worry. You can, and you will" Thalia said, taking her hand off his shoulder.
Jason smiled at her before he saw reddish-brown smudge on his shoulder
"Eww, you got barbeque sauce on my shirt!" Jason exclaimed trying to wipe it off with a tissue.
"No I didn't!" Thalia argued
"Yes you did, It's right there!" Jason said, pointing the obvious stain on his orange shirt.
"There's nothing there!"
"Yes there is!"
The two of them bickered until Piper came back with the plates of fruit.
That night he couldn't sleep again, but not because Reyna sent him another text. This time, he was wondering if and how he can stop being such a coward.
He got up, reached for his phone, and dialed a number.
"Hey Leo, sorry calling you in the middle of the night but... I need a favor..."
𝘼𝙪𝙜𝙪𝙨𝙩 𝙀𝙞𝙜𝙝𝙩𝙚𝙚𝙣
Jason wrote a letter. It wasn't a very long one, but he knew that the words in that piece of paper could get Mrs. Harris to drop the lawsuit, though it would cost him a lot.

Miraculously it worked. Mr. And Mrs. Harris dropped the charges at Camp Jupiter and went after Jason- or more accurately his father- instead. He didn't really know what took place between Mr. And Mrs Harris, his father, and both their lawyers, but he imagined that his father had to pull some strings to satisfy the couple.
Strings that his father was definitely not happy to pull by the look on his face after he demanded that Jason be pulled out of summer camp and be brought home.
"WHAT THE HELL WERE YOU THINKING?!" His father yelled, Jason tried his best not to flinch '𝘪𝘵𝘴 𝘧𝘪𝘯𝘦, 𝘺𝘰𝘶'𝘷𝘦 𝘣𝘦𝘦𝘯 𝘺𝘦𝘭𝘭𝘦𝘥 𝘢𝘵 𝘣𝘦𝘧𝘰𝘳𝘦' he thought.
"I wasn't" Jason answered.
"CLEARLY!" Jason's father started to make his way towards him until they were standing only 2 feet apart. Jason felt his father harshly grab his jaw, forcing him to look at his father's face which was red with fury.
"I have given you 𝙀𝙑𝙀𝙍𝙔𝙏𝙃𝙄𝙉𝙂, Jason. A roof over your head, a good school- I even pay hundreds of dollars every year so that you can attend that damn summer camp you love so much, and this is how you repay me?" Mr. Grace said, there were no traces of the doting father he never was in his tone.
He so sounded harsh and cold that it made Jason wanna break down, get on his knees and apologize.
"You embarrassed my name and made me LOOK LIKE A DAMN FOOL IN FRONT OF THOSE PEOPLE" Jason father let go of Jason's jaw before grabbing his cane and using it to hit Jason on the head so hard that he fell off his feet as blood started pouring out of his forehead.
Jason looked up to find his father glaring daggers at him while he pointed his cane in his direction.
"If I had known that you would be this worthless then I would have abandoned you in a forest for wolves to eat"
That was the last thing his father said before walking out of the room.
It hurt.
The wound on his forehead and his father's words. He knew that he didn't actually do anything wrong, but they still hurt.
Jason spent the rest of the summer locked in his room with no phone, he didn't mind since summer would basically be over next week. He read and reread books to keep himself entertained but he thought about Reyna and Camp Jupiter constantly.
When they first learned about the law suit Reyna was restless. Constantly asking her parents for updates about the situation, checking and re-checking the equipment they used in other activities, at one point, she even tried to contact Mr. and Mrs. Harris to beg them to let go of the charges, of course that attempt was un successful.
It hurt Jason to see her so worried and anxious, it hurt to see how hard she would try to told back her tears and look okay when they were together because everyone knew how much she loves Camp Jupiter.
How could she not?
She basically grew up there.
Jason loved that place too.
How could he not?
He spent the best moments of his life there.
He couldn't bear the though of it all just... Shutting down.
Just thinking about it kept him up at night.
He knew that it was unethical to create a false confession letter, but in his mind it was the easiest way, plus him being there when it happened made his confession more believable. Besides, he knew that nothing too bad would actually happen to him.
His father was a wealthy man that could get Jason out of whatever BS he gets himself into. He couldn't bare to have people know how much of a screw up his son was. Especially since his father cared more about his reputation than him.
There was another thing keeping Jason up at night, and it was this nagging voice in his head that constantly asked if it was a good idea that he used himself as a scapegoat so that Reyna’s parents would come out innocent when they weren't.
Faulty equipment 𝘸𝘢𝘴 the reason Oliver fell.
He was there, he would know.
Oliver had told him that he was well acquainted with rock climbing, and since Jason had been looking after 15 other campers that were younger then Oliver. He let him do his own thing.
He now realizes that he probably should have been looking after him as well but he was too busy helping out the younger kids that when Oliver screamed and fell, there was nothing he could do expect call for paramedics.

It was the beginning of theschool year again, meaning that he got his phone back.
His text messages were open and his finger was hovering over a contact name titled "Reyna 👑"
He had a thousand words he wanted to say to her yet he couldn't type a single one. He ended up sitting completely still while starring at his phone for the entirety of his first class. The only thing that snapped him back into reality was the sound of the bell.
"Here, you're gonna need this" He looked at Piper who had been sitting next to him the entire time as she placed a notebook down on his desk. "These are my notes. Our teacher, Mr. Smith kept the orientation short and jumped right into his lesson"
"Uh- thanks" Jason reached for the notebook but something in him stopped him from doing so. She expects something from him, or more specifically. She expects to be a certain 𝘴𝘰𝘮𝘦𝘰𝘯𝘦 to him.
"𝙒𝙝𝙮 𝙖𝙧𝙚 𝙮𝙤𝙪 𝙡𝙚𝙖𝙙𝙞𝙣𝙜 𝙗𝙤𝙩𝙝 𝙍𝙚𝙮𝙣𝙖 𝙖𝙣𝙙 𝙋𝙞𝙥𝙚𝙧 𝙤𝙣?" He remembers her sister saying. He didn't wanna lead anyone on.
He took a deep breath and put his hands down on his lap.
"Listen Piper, umm... Maybe we should talk" Jason said, he looked around the classroom and saw that everyone had already left to go to their next class.
"Okay... What?"
"I'm sorry... I know that- you have feelings for me and... You're a great girl, anyone would be lucky to have you but... There's someone else I'm pining for" Jason waited for a response from Piper, he waited for her to yell at him or something but she didn't, instead she asked something he didn't expect.
"Is it that girl, Reyna?" Piper asked, her fists were clenched under her table.
"How- how did you know about her?"
"I overheard your conversation with Thalia after I grabbed us some fruit. She sounds like someone special to you" Her voice cracked at the last sentence, she didn't know why she had caught such strong feelings for a guy she doesn't really know. They had gone to the same school for over 5 years but have bearly talked, but still.
She would admire him from afar as he talked and laughed with his friends almost daily. He was a nice guy, friendly and fair to everyone, so it felt like a daydream having spent an entire summer with him. It made her feel like she had a chance.
"Yeah... She is special... And I know that you are too for someone out there just... Not me"
𝙊𝙪𝙘𝙝
"Can't we just-... Try...? Try this and see if this works out?"
"We can't"
"Why not?"
"Because we'd just be lying to ourselves by trying to make it work, I would know... I did" Throughout the summer Jason 𝘵𝘳𝘪𝘦𝘥, he really 𝘵𝘳𝘪𝘦𝘥 to forget about Reyna. It was a selfish move but that was why he entertained Piper and made her think that 𝘴𝘰𝘮𝘦𝘵𝘩𝘪𝘯𝘨 would happen between them.
"Lying?" Piper said, the heartbreak in her voice was audible "What do you mean " You would know"? "
"I-"
"Jason I know that- that I'm comparable to Reyna and that we haven't spent as much time together but I thought that this- this summer would... 𝘔𝘦𝘢𝘯 𝘴𝘰𝘮𝘦𝘵𝘩𝘪𝘯𝘨 to you"
Jason stayed silent, it seemed like all his stupid decisions have finally caught on to him, he knew he couldn't afford to make more, he knew he had end this.
"One summer doesn't compare to eight. Piper... Listen I do like you but-"
"You 𝘭𝘪𝘬𝘦 me, but you 𝘭𝘰𝘷𝘦 her" Tears threatened to escape Piper's eyes, but she held it in.
"Yeah... That's right... I'm sorry Piper, but I don't hold any romantic feelings for you" Jason said, he hoped that phrasing it that way instead of directly saying 'I don't love you' would soften the blow but unfortunately that didn't seem to be the case as tears finally started running down Piper's cheeks.
"I see... I'll uh-... I'll see you later then" She said before storming out of the classroom, leaving Jason and forgetting her notebook.
He looked at the notebook for a while, then looked at his phone, more specifically the contact number titled "Reyna 👑"
He knew he didn't deserve someone like Piper. So he probably didn't deserve someone like Reyna either.
With a heavy heart, he put his phone back into his pocket, grabbed Piper's notebook, and headed to his next class.
I agree, like I kinda understand that she neglected Rebecca because she focused on Emily ( I understand but I don't agree, Mallory is a shit mom) and I get grieving over your dead daughter, but why continue neglecting the one who's still there? On top of that, asking Rebecca to her face why all her children are dead as if she's not one of her children, plus blaming her for Emily's death? She was still just a teen! like WTF!
Chapter 51 of the final gambit hurt so much. Rebecca deserves the world,I really don’t understand why the hell mallory can’t love/appreciate rebecca like we get it Emily was sick and fragile but why neglect rebecca???
THIS IS THE BEST THING I'VE SEEN ALL DAY!
I wrote a crossover between HOO and Batfam Wayne family adventures centering Drew Tanaka and I think she would thrive in Adopt me. Thought she'd probably be a scammer Lmao
The last character you drew/wrote about is now stuck in the last game you played. How screwed are they?
imagine you are drew tanaka in the middle of a losing battle and being told that your sister, your big sister who you trusted, was a traitor.
imagine hearing everyone call her a hero and not understanding because she was a traitor. she was a traitor and people are dead and how many of them wouldn't be dead right now if not for her?
imagine you are all of fourteen, maybe fifteen, and you are put in charge of all your siblings during a battle many of them are going to see the end of all because your sister sided with the enemy.
imagine feeling like a monster in your own skin. imagine holding in this gigantic hatred for a person everyone is calling a hero. imagine watching the flames on your friends funeral pyres die out and wondering if they would've survived if Silena never defected.
imagine four months later, a girl comes in and tells you you're wrong to feel this way. a girl who never knew silena. a girl who was never stuck in a war in new york for days on end while the enemy attacked from all sides. imagine she tells you silena was a hero when she doesn't know what it's like to be betrayed by someone who was your sister.
imagine she takes the responsibility of a dozen or two campers off your back by becoming the new cabin counsellor and you can't help but feel thankful for it.
So I was scrolling through Pinterest trying to find an image to put on a C. ai bot WHEN I STUMBLED UPON THIS!

Here's the fan fic I've been talking about, only one chapter so far but I'll try to update frequently
Here it is! So far it only has one chapter but I'll try to update this regularly
So there's this WebToon called "Batman: Wayne Family adventures" and I absolutely love it, I loved it so much that I sorta wanna write a crossover fanfic about it about Drew Tanaka becoming a Robin after the battle of Manhattan. I also wanna add some Drew x Leo in there if you know what I mean, not just because I like the ship but also because I wanna give my boy Leo a better life
Yes it will extend this fic to the events of TLH and I'll make Drew go on the mission instead of Piper
I already finished writing the first chapter but I'm posting this to ask if anyone would be interested in reading it because I need validation, so tell me if you wanna read it.
So I've been thinking about Jason and Reyna lately, so can someone please recommend me some fanfics where Jason runs towards Reyna and hugs her when he finally returns to Camp Jupiter PLEASE I NEED MY JEYNA!!!

I am a Drew Tanaka Stan account, but this does not mean that I hate Piper, that also doesn't mean that I like her either, say what you want but hear me out.
I liked Piper, I thought that she was pretty cool at first but by the end of TLH when Piper "defended" Silena is when my opinion on her started to go down hill. Piper had no right to defend Silena because she did not know her, at that time the only thing that Piper knew about Silena was her name and the fact that she was the Aphrodite cabin head Councilor before she died, Piper has never met Silena and she's bearly even heard of her deeds. Now, to those who say--
"Well, Annabeth told Piper about Silena"
No, no she did not, at least not really. If you can remember, when Annabeth was touring Piper around the camp, she did mention Silena and told her how she was the previous Cabin 10 head Councilor, and that she was kinder and more caring compared to the other Aphrodite kids (Rick I hate you for this) but then stopped herself from saying anymore because it was obviously a sensitive topic to her.
Plus, Piper becoming the head Councilor only after spending two days at CHB ticks me off because she bearly did shit.
"Oh she went on a quest"
So? The other Aphrodite kids went to War! Among her siblings Drew had been at camp the longest so I'm guessing that she was there for both The Battle Of The Labyrinth and The Battle Of Manhattan. Even if Drew was just one of the medics and not one of the fighters (which you will never convince me into believing, you cannot tell me that this girl- Drew Tanaka- is an absolute menace) she still helped and survived, Piper should not have been the one with the leverage!
I get that Uncle Rick wanted his main characters to be the Head Councilors so that they could be the ones to attend the meetings and all that, but he could have gone about Piper becoming the head in a much better way!
And to those who say--
"What about Leo, he became head Councilor the same time as Piper, you're just placing double standards"
No I am not! Because Leo did a lot for his cabin even just that one day when they arrived at CHB (1) he discovered bunker 9-- something that none of the other current Hephaestus kids even knew about and (2) He fixed Festus and even found/ re-attached his wings-- something that the other Hephaestus kids thought was impossible. I mean look at what happened to Jake Mason when he tried to get that dragon at bay! Bro ended up in a full body cast.
And to those who are saying--
"Well Piper got rid of all the stereotypes"
No, no she did not, because around this time she was still in her "I'm not like other girls" phase. Now I'm not gonna judge her for this phase because we all went through it (I definitely did) but the way she was so quick to judge and stereotype the other Aphrodite kids as spoiled and vain without even properly conversing with them is not helping her case.
Plus, at the Hephaestus cabin, no one really wanted to be the Head Councilor, and I think that it was the same for the Aphrodite cabin because think about it, Drew is canonically Sadie Kane's age so around 14-15 (maybe even 13 I don't know it just said that she was around Sadie's age) so she was very young when the two wars happened, and we know that the head Councilors are the ones at front, the ones who HAVE to handle things, the ones who lead and die before everyone else (which is greatly shown/represented by the Apollo cabin, RIP Lee Fletcher and Michael Yew) You cannot tell me that my girl wanted in on that.
You cannot tell me that Drew Tanaka wanted the responsibility that came with being head councilor.
"Oh, she wanted power over her siblings, I mean she was a Tyrant! "
The death! You cannot tell me that a 13- 14 year old was thinking about power after she heard that her older sister's face got melted off and that she had to step up and be in charge of a cabin full of kids. Like Drew jumped at the first moment she had to get all the responsibilities off of her shoulders. ESPECIALLY since she KNEW that shit was starting to stir again with the new prophecy (let's not forget the fact that she was one of the first people to put the pieces together and bring it up) MY GIRL RAN THE OTHER WAY AND I DON'T BLAME HER FOR IT.
I think that this is the EXACT reason why Drew didn't fight Piper to keep her position as Head Councilor. She didn't want it, cuz let's be real, Drew would have BODIED Piper. I mean I'm pretty sure that Chiron trained those Demigods like seasoned war soldiers and Piper had zero training.
AND I BETTER NOT see anyone say that--
"Oh no way! Drew could't have been stronger then Piper, Drew probably skipped training because she didn't wanna ruin her nails or get sweaty, that's just how she is blah blah blah"
No! Chiron is responsible, he would NOT let ANY camper miss or skip training, cuz if they did then you know that he's gonna make them clean the stables or wash the dishes, now THAT is something that Drew would not want to do.
Now I'm not here do say that Drew is a completely innocent cutie patootie because she wasn't, she was Sadie's bully and yes she was mean to her siblings, I can't defend that and I won't by saying--
"Oh she's just a young dumb traumatized teenager going through some shit, we all make mistakes"
(even though I think it's true in certain levels although not completely) Cus if I do then I don't think you guys will like/accept that so let's just cut her some slack.
Anyways, I think the reason why I like her so much is because we're kinda similar (I'm not extremely pretty and popular don't get me wrong, I'm actually the kid that sits quietly in the corner, but I too am a 15 year old Asian female who's not a healthy grievier and tend to lash out when I get emotional, I probably would have reacted similarly if I was in her situation. I also don't think that the war had given her (and most of the other Demigods honestly) some maturity (people say that the wars made the Half-Bloods more mature but I honesty don't think that thats true for all of them, Drew included) I think that it just gave them PTSD, trauma and some false beliefs about the world.
In conclusion, I like Piper, but I like Drew 100x more, and I think that HOO would have been more interesting if Drew had been part of the seven instead of Piper, I think Drew would have added more flavor and more emotion, the Media scene definitely would have been more interesting if it was Drew that was there and you all know it, AND how her opinion about Silena would affect her relationship/ create tension in the Argo with Annabeth and Percy.
DREW AND ESTELLE?! WHAT KIND OF MONSTERS THOUGHT OF THAT SHIP! SEND THEM TO TARTARUS
Dude you won't believe what I just witnessed, people freaking out because of Percy and Nico's age gap??!! LMAO LISTEN HERE
Which is like idk how many years but definitely feels illegal😭
A minor detail that I like in The Owl House is the fact that Hunter (in my opinion) had a terrible sense of style.
Like look at this! What is this?!
The triangle patterned button up with those horrendous looking brown shorts AND FUCKING CROCS?! Like I know that they had bigger things to worry about but the others dressed fine, more then fine actually, I really liked what the others wore, but this man really picked out a furry costume when they were shopping for clothes, like I know that it looks like flapjack and it's supposed to be cute but still!
Anyways, I feel like him having a terrible sense of style does make a lot of sense since we know that he's a Grimwalker (clone whatever) so he probably came to life at like 14-15 and had probably never worn anything other then his Golden Guard/ Emperor coven's uniform, training clothes or maybe battle armor.

Helping Hades with Persephone
Zeus: Dude I’ll help you out, I’ve done this hundreds of times
Hera: Don’t listen to him, he’s never had a stable relationship in his entire life
IF ONLY 😭
"I wonder if they are having fun?" Hestia questioned while hanging out with Poseidon, Demeter and Hades.
Suddenly the door opened. They saw a figure. Two people.
"Look,their back!!"Poseidon exclaimed as they rushed and ran to greet them. Suddenly Hestia stopped.
"Ow-" Hades muttered as Demeter and Poseidon bumped into him.
Then they realized why Hestia stopped.
"Why do you have a child?" Poseidon dumbfoundedly questioned.
Hera smiled and lovingly gazed at the infant in her arms.
Hestia thought the baby looked cute. "What's the baby's name?"
"Hephaestus" Hera whispered her joy evident on her face.
"WAIT, SO YOU GUYS WENT ON A COUPLE RETREAT ,AND CAME BACK WITH A CHILD!!?" Poseidon shouted.
"Shush there is a baby in your presence" Demeter then smacked Poseidon.
"ow-"Poseidon said as he rubbed his head.
Then baby Hephaestus suddenly giggled.
Demeter was awestruck. "Woah" "That was so cute!!"
Poseidon and Hades were glaring at each other before they both said "I'm going to be the favorite Uncle!!"
The attempt to win baby Hephaestus's favor soon started.
Poseidon made weird faces. Which was weird to say the least. Hades talked in a weird high pitch voice and gave baby Hephaestus some drachmas-as a bribe. Baby Hephaestus was not pleased and started crying.
"You made the babyyyyy cryyyy hades" Poseidon laughed and said in a singsong voice.
"shhhh it's ok" Hera said softly while rocking Hephaestus in her arms.
Zeus was looking at both his son and wife with lovestruck eyes.
"Hera you should sit down first" Hestia suggested.
So the 6 of them walked to and sat on their thrones.
Hephaestus continued crying as Hera attempted to calm him down. Then Hera remembered something "Hestia can you bring the stuffed toy I made?"
"Sure" Hestia then left to get it.
"He looks so cute. He looks like you" Zeus lovingly said.
Hera blushed. Then Poseidon sang " Zeus and Hera in love like two...... pigs" Hades softly laughed while two people were glaring at Poseidon. Unfortunately this 'song' made Hephaestus cry even more when Hestia walked in .
"I found the toy hammer" Hestia stated as she passed the toy hammer to Zeus.
Zeus waved the hammer in front of Hephaestus. He stopped crying but he looked rather confused.
Hera smiled at his confused face. Hephaestus then made motions to grab the hammer as Zeus brought it closer to him and then brought it further away. Repeatedly.
Hephaestus wasn't crying like Hera expected him to. Instead he was pouting and glaring at Zeus. Finally Zeus handed the toy hammer to Hephaestus.
Though he was just a newborn, Hephaestus seemed to be having fun by excitedly waving the toy hammer.
"With his excitement towards the hammer, he would make a good god of blacksmith" Zeus stated. At that time he wouldn't know how true his statement would be.
Hera rocked baby Hephaestus to sleep as he got more and more tired as he played with the hammer. "We should bring him to the nursery"
Zeus nodded and held Hephaestus as Hera got up from her throne. Then they walked to the nursery. And placed Hephaestus on his bed as Hera and Zeus gazed at him with love and adoration.
Hestia, Demeter, Hades and Poseidon smiled seeing their siblings happy and in love.
