Apollo after pining for Athenide for thousands of year, seeing her die, then seeing her come back as a demigoddess, then watching her deny immortality for the sake of all demigods, then she disappears

"I came back wrong! Don't you get it?! I'm not the person I was before!"

"Sweetie, you came back traumatised, not 'wrong'. You're still you, I promise."

“I am looking respectfully” “im so normal about this” can you bark actually? Can you hit yourself over the head w a frying pan like a cartoon wolf? Can you look at it derangedly please?

Jason Todd (having died, come back, and acquired the All Blades, but not yet having returned to Gotham) meets the Rainbow Mafia of KHR. It starts with Skull. Little dude complaining aloud to himself about the Stupid Curse and Stupid being shrunk while he's working on his motorcycle - which is too big for him now. As is the rest of his gear.

Jason (who can see the Acorboleno Curse because All Blades) offers to help get gear that fits Skull, and help him build a motorbike to fit his new stature while still having all the power of the full-sized bike. They bond. Jason learns more about the whole Flames dealio, figures out how to activate and use his own - the act of which slowly burns off the corruption of the Pit and incidentally improves his ability to use the All Blades.

Then he meets Xanxus, who has just learned about not actually being Timoteo Vongola's son, but the Cradle Affair hasn't happened yet, and they bond over shitty father figures and boss-ass grandparents (Daniella and Alfred respectively).

One thing that has made me a much more well-adjusted person is a clip I once saw of Hank Green saying that anyone can be in amazing shape as long as being in amazing shape is one of their top three priorities.

(This is obviously a generalization that isn't true for everyone. But it is true for most people and I'm proceeding from there.)

This "top three priorities" framing has genuinely reduced my tendency toward jealousy and self-comparison a lot. Now when I feel envious of someone’s spotless, aesthetic home, I think to myself, “Having a spotless, aesthetic home is probably one of their top three priorities. It’s definitely not one of mine, so I shouldn’t expect my home to look like that.”

Or when I see an influencer with a body that takes a ton of work to maintain: “Maintaining that body is obviously one of her top three priorities, because it’s her livelihood. My livelihood is my brain, so I’m never going to prioritize my body like that.”

It also helps me to identify areas that I actually DO want to prioritize more. I realized in recent years that my envy for my friends who prioritized writing more than I did was NOT going away, so I started to prioritize writing more. (Not top three, but higher priority than it has been in the past.)

Damn, this girl was prepared.

She learned from experience. That look on her face is one who found out all of Jack-Jack’s powers through trial by fire.

The REAL hero of this movie. The normal girl who didn’t let the all-powerful baby die or burn the house down.

Can we just take a moment to appreciate that her reflexes are faster than fucking lasers???

She needs to get paid better for this.

Jack Jack didn’t have powers before she was hired. She came prepared to stimulate the baby brain with some Mozart, and stimulate it did. So she was dealing not just with a super powered baby, but a baby who was himself discovering his super powers.

lol. Remember how I said I was left to my thoughts.

An idea I had was that some Roman stories paint Arsionë as the daughter of Aphrodite and Gaia. I was left to think about that. Here’s what came of it.

—-

Gaia looked at the daughter of Athena, rejected spawn of Minerva, with curious eyes. The first she had met the young demigod, though it was through a dream, the white streaks were set in curly blonde hair. Now however they stood out amongst a blond that had an auburn tint, strawberry blonde as the mortals called it now.

Short curls, again contrasting to the long locks the girl had once sported, sparked a sense of recognition through the Protogenos of the Earth. She felt a slight pull towards the child, much like that towards all her children. Shame for the gods it did not pass on to their progeny or she might be able to stray her wrath.

“Daughter.” A voice whispered in her mind. A connection that belied and worship itself had forged. A relationship often maintained through dreams though Arisonë had always vehemently denied their connection, silly girl not understanding that Olea would always be hers once the stories started and the cults worshiped it. Even when they twisted the tale once more to tie her to yet another.

Odd.

Arsionë had declared Athena mother, much like Annabeth Chase now did. Though that could mean nothing, Arsionë had also praised Amphitrite’s compassion and motherly nature as well and Gaea could not feel the nereid’s protection upon her like it had wrapped around Arsionë. It was wound around Poseidon’s spawn, and with how close the two girls appeared to be it wasn’t a guess that Amphitrite had chosen not to given it to the child of Athena.

“Daughter.” The feeling pulsed once more and she could see it, the sweet dreams of realities that were never to be. Rhea and Olea caring for each other as her favored daughters should, both choosing diplomacy of different sorts to the vengeance she often craved. A balm to her aching wounds soothing the violence that coursed through her veins.

However should she deal with this new development the primordial pondered.

ooooooo Gaia wanting to kill the demigods except her daughter would be interesting

A situation of a world where Helios probably didn’t fade just yet and *if* the news of Apollo and Percy’s marriage was found out (very big IF):

Helios: Well damn. You got yourself a sea bride like I did, kiddo.

Apollo, smiling sarcastically: with much MORE finesse and time for more love to taking space, my predecessor of the sun! My lady wife brings me quite to my knees, you see! *Didn’t even deadass forget about Helios’ attempt to bribe him with the whole Athenide’s arrival Banquet fiasco*

Helios, remembering how he snatched Rhodes without a second thought to her birth and then cheating on her with an Oceanid named Perse (who also “dared to usurp Rhodes’ place as Lady of the house of Helios”): Ahahaha… Right.

meanwhile

Perse, a strained smile: Congratulations, my lady…

Percy, a grudge against Perse (for the similar name and besmirch of her sister’s marriage) and Helios (for the unloyalty towards Rhodes): Thank you, although I appreciate if you could entertain your (incompetent) husband and focus on your child instead.

Helios: us sun gods sure have a type ayyy Apollo: You mean very smart and clever daughters of poseidon who can and will read you to filth while looking hot while doing so? or you mean someone as hilarious Percy when she tells jokes or Rhodes for when she married you? it appears we do have a type and unlike you, i have poseidon's approval

Perse: oh you married a sun god? let me impart some wisdom on how to keep him entertained Percy: i usually give him a shovel at the beach and tell him to dig. Rhodes: he did build you a very nice sandcastle Percy: or did you mean take him out for walks every day and feed him three meals a day so he doesn't get chonky like a cat? sometimes i'll get him a rubiks cube for enrichment Perse: well i meant in bed Percy: lucky for apollo i have been learning magic after watching antman and the wasp and i have been told i am magical in bed Perse: that's not what i- Percy: or if i wanted to learn actual magic, I could take up Circe's offer and learn sorcery from her. she has been looking for a mother figure since she cut ties with her bio parents after all. who could blame her with all the shit she had to deal with because of them Perse: Rhodes:

Percy: but that's none of my business Perse: but apollo would probably stray after you have kids so you might want to- Percy: KIDS! what did you tell apollo when we first got together? CHB: that we'll revolt again if he cheats on you Percy: and the other thing CHB: that we will go with mom in the divorce when she inevitably realizes that she can do so much better than settling for a sun god Percy: there you go

within five years of Order 66, enough clones have fought through their inhibitor chips that they are able to successfully overthrow the Empire and start the work of establishing their own regime

thinking that they killed All The Jedi, they also proscribe a new state religion dedicated to the Force, with the Jedi as their martyred saints

this leads to Obi-Wan, who snuck onto Coruscant to figure out what has changed in the galaxy that has started to dispel the Sith's Darkness, immediately stumbling upon a giant statue of himself sprawled on a throne in true characteristic Kenobi style

Star Wars Order 66 au

Where the Kaminioans find out early that Palpatine is planning to eventually betray them. Before order 66 they secretly swap the codes for order 66 and order 65 around without Palpatine or anyone else knowing. So basically now order 66 demands the removal/execution of the Chancellor aka Palpatine, and order 65 is the execution of the Jedi.

So when Palpatine calls every single clone commander, commandos, bad batch, and the entire clone army to execute order 66. He is cracking up thinking that the clones are going to kill the jedi. Only to have an uno reverse card, and have the entire Republic army come after him instead.
