It’s hard to enjoy practical jokes when your whole life feels like one

Rick Riordan, The Last Olympian
(via ew-perthro)

But beauty is about finding the right fit, the most natural fit. To be perfect, you have to feel perfect about yourself - avoid trying to be something you’re not.

My friend is dying. Can you cure him or not?’
Her voice caught on the word friend. Percy was a lot more than that. Even boyfriend really didn’t cover it. They’d been through so much together, at this point Percy was part of her – a sometimes annoying part, sure, but definitely a part she could not live without.

Excerpt From: Riordan, Rick. “Heroes of Olympus 04 - The House of Hades.” (via jonsnowspup)

“You aren’t like other girls” they tell you with a smirk
They think this is a compliment
They think you will be glad
They are wrong.
It is not a compliment and it is not true
You are like other girls, you are built the same
You are the heart of Aphrodite
Love is worth fighting for
It always has been and always will be
But you won’t fight a hopeless fight
You are the brains of Athena
Filled with brilliant ideas
For crafts and war alike
And you will never let them underestimate you
You are the fire of Artemis
Burning with rage at how they treat you
Fighting back with sharp words and sharper swords
Because you cannot lose
You are the inchor of Olympus
Your veins run gold with the blood of your sisters

And never will they bleed you dry (via randomestfandoms)

do you ever use a particular pen or pencil in school a lot and you start getting emotionally attached to it and then you lose it and it’s just another reason to be sad during school
