        “what is wrong with you, why are you acting this way, why do you hate - oh my god are you breaking up with me ?!”

❛     babe,  i’m  just  trying  to  teach  you  some  manners  !  gotta  say  please  when  asking  for  things  —  until  you’re  stealing  them,  then  you  don’t  say  anything  at  all.  bonus,  if  you  say  please,  people  tend  to  like  you  more  &  are  more  RECEPTIVE  to  doing  what  you  ask.

     it sounds so much like him….but it isn’t. it isn’t luke, it isn’t her luke. “ then i’ll die knowing i tried as hard as i could to save the ones i love...” and maybe she’s doing this because she feels guilty. because she knows she could have done something to stop him from going this far. to S A V E him. and she hadn’t. he’d disappeared into the night just like he’d quietly alluded to doing. and she hoped he’d heard her….hoped he knew she loved him….she’d never said it to his face, never whispered the sweet three words that every pair of lovers longed to hear. maybe now some distant part of him still dwelled, awake, and awaiting something that might shake him into consciousness….something like love. but that was just a hopeless dreamers plea wasn’t it…

briefly,  he  wonders  if  they’re  ALL  like  this  :  petulant,  foolish,  so  ready  to  lay  down  their  life  for  LOVE.  wonders,  if  for  a  moment,  where  they  all  get  it  from.  then  he  remembers  rhea  (  his  sister-wife,  the  only  one  HE  could  ever  have  feelings  for  )  whisked  away  their  youngest  son,  handed  him  over  to  be  raised  by  a  goat  (  amaltheia  ),  all  because  of  LOVE.  needless  emotional  frivolities.  there’s  a  twinge  within  him  as  the  word  love  washes  over  him  from  elizabeth’s  lips,  but  it  serves  only  to  irritate  the  titan  further.  what  use  is  a  vessel  if  it  fights  back,  if  it  tries to  wrest  back  control  ?  he’s  spent  millennia  on  this  plan  ;  he’s  not  going  to  lose  now  just  because  some  DEMIGOD  has  a  change  of  heart.  ❛     it’s  almost  a  shame  you  won’t  be  around  to  see  me  raze  olympus  to  the  ground  ;  i  know  your  family  enjoyed  the  architecture  of  the  place.     ❜  there’s  an  almost  playful  tone  to  the  titan’s  heavy,  powerful  voice  as  he  smiles  crookedly,  before  glancing  at  a  few  of  his  followers  behind  liz.  ❛     kill  her,     ❜  he  tells  them,  calmly.  ❛     i’d  do  it  myself,  but  i  think  this  time  i’d  much  prefer  to  watch.     ❜

     ‘ I’LL fight you till i die. or until you give me back my- …..give luke back. there’s a choking sob at the back of her throat. blood, sweat, and tears are all mixing together on her face as she pulls takes her fighting stance once more sword in hand, just the way luke had taught her. no wonder she couldn’t win. every move she made he already knew….

rolls  honey-hued  orbs  at  the  sound.  he’s  never  been  one  for  SENTIMENTALITY.  he  kronos,  who  sliced  his  father  from  his  mother  with  a  scythe  ;  who  threw  his  father’s  genitals  into  the  ocean  ;  who  systematically  ate  his  children  to  ensure  his  own  survival.  no,  SENTIMENTALITY  &  FAMILIAL  LOVE  has  never  been  his  forte.  ❛     then  you’ll  die.     ❜  words  have  a  bored  tone  to  them  —  there’s  so  much  more  he  could  be  doing,  but  she’s  just  a  tad  more  interesting.  curious  to  see  just  how  far  his  great-granddaughter  will  push  herself  (  demigods  have  always  been  stupid,  never  knowing  just  when  to  say  NO  ).

         “hmmm ? why don’t you ask my mom ? annnddd you might wanna be a little more careful - y’never know what my mom might deem insulting and throw down some kinda wicked punishment….”

“………well maybe we should break up if you aren’t doing your boyfriend-ly duties !!! like making stupid innuendos and letting me keep your books so you don’t get your drachmas embezzled —— ok but what about chiron, i’ll tell him. AND i’ll feed the wires to your XBOX to the centaurs !!! “

❛     i  mean,  if  you  think  we  SHOULD .  .  .  &  are  you  sure  you’re  an  athenian  kid  ?  you’re  starting  to  sound  as  dramatic  as  an  aphrodite  kid.  makes  the  idea  of  hooking  up  with  that  guy  a  little  more  interesting.

        “kick me outta the cabin and i’ll go hook up with that dude in aphrodite cabin who’s been hitting on me all summer. AND i’ll tell mr. D about your enchanted item smuggling operation.”

❛     but  if  you  hook  up  with  aphrodite  guy,  we’re  gonna  have  to  BREAK  UP.  would  that  really  be  worth  it  ?                         &  i’m  pretty  sure  mr.  d  already  knows,  but  can’t  bring  himself  to  care  enough.

❛     yeah,  if  ares  cabin  can  do  it,  i’m  not  sure  i’d  call  it  QUICK  WIT.  i’m  not  sure  they  can  do  anything  with  wit,  quick  or  not.  i’m  offended  you’d  even  COMPARE  us  !

         “…….FINE. lil’ bit disappointed.” a kiss is returned, but it’s definitely placed on his lips and not his forehead. “ your quick wit image kinda gets tarnished when you don’t pull through.”

❛     my  quick  wit,  tarnished  ?  i  don’t  think  that’s  even  remotely  possible.  if  you’re  gonna  lie,  make  it  believable.  tip  number  one.
