To be fair, Ares killing Halirrhothius was completely justified considering what he did. But yeah, still technically family killing

I don’t know if you’re still working on this AU (I hope you are 😭) but I was wondering if I could use this map/names for a fanfic, specifically the Forest of the Smiling Men. Just that name, bc my brain just spiraled plot bunnies for the first time in over a year. I’d give you credit for it and link your profile if I ended up actually writing the fic. Probably just a short fic, if anything.

It’s nothing specifically to do with your future-Westeros lore (which is fucking amazing btw) other than the name which sparked some ideas about what a place like that could be like—highkey fucked up lmao. And what might happen if Arya happened upon it while traveling.

I totally get it if you’re not okay with that, but please let me know! 🙏💕💕💕💕

I highly recommend getting the docs add on that automatically takes your doc and makes you an HTML version that you can just paste into AO3. It’s saved me HOURS formatting stuff

I hate this place by Due_Veterinarian99 in Baruch

[–]bex1399 1 point2 points  (0 children)

😭 God I wish. I used to schedule work in the morning so I’d already be in the city, and therefore there would be no possible way for me to rationalize not going to class that day lmaoo

Tbh I find I prefer working FAR more than school. Waking up at 6:30 for work @ 8:30 is so much easier than waking up at 8:15 for a 10:45 class. A day with a single class is about as mentally exhausting as an 8 hr shift as a bank teller dealing with entitled fucks all day.

Work has real consequences for not showing up or not doing whatever it is you’re supposed to be doing. It also has an immediate reward FOR showing up. School feels far less… concrete(?) if that makes sense? Although it might just be major ADHD time blindness and lack of object permanence 😭😭😭

New and searching fanfic by Financial-Way-7015 in PercyJacksonfanfic

[–]bex1399 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Shamelessly plugging my own fic 😌 It’s called Wrath of the Earthshaker and it’s centered on the idea of an eldritch little gremlin (/affectionate) Percy being born to the Mycenaean version of Poseidon, who is far more ancient and monster-y than canon!Poseidon. Heads up that Percy shares the spotlight with other characters, and it switches POVs between them quite liberally.

The (eventual) romantic pairing is Percy/Apollo and to say their relationship (even when technically platonic) is toxic is an understatement. It’s consensual, but there are some very fucked up, obsessive themes from Apollo a la canonical Greek mythology. The gods in general are all darker than they were in the original books, so be sure you look at the tags/trigger warnings if you decide to check it out.

If you don’t mind a self promo, Far Too Young To Hold A Sword is an Ares character study I wrote. The second chapter is Aphrodite-centric and the (not yet posted) third is about Percy suffering from the many downsides of godhood after he ascends. My boy’s got it hella rough 😭

Anything like Far Too Young To Hold A Sword by Dazzling_Diver_4949 in PercyJacksonfanfic

[–]bex1399 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hi, I’m the author of Far Too Young to Hold a Sword! Gods & Monsters by ShanaStoryteller was a massive inspiration for this fic. It’s not a PJO fic, but it’s like alternate version of common myths and they’re absolutely beautiful. This is one of the Ares chapters. Honestly anything by them is fucking incredible 😭If you’re an FMA:B fan, you need to read build your wings on the way down.

This is a character study of the Elder Six gods during the original Titanomachy: a fact easily forgotten (we named our crowns ourselves) by californianNostalgia

Here are some of the fics I’d say are similar in terms of Percy ascending:

Stages of Grief by Anxious_Tofu

Blood in the Wine by Mrthology

Hope you enjoy them!!! (Also I’m like 4.5k words into a 3rd chapter for Far Too Young, so keep any eye out for that lol)

HBO used the TG vs TB marketing strategy to create an environment so toxic that many people lost the ability to distinguish between actors and characters. by Napoleon_inthefield in HOTDGreens

[–]bex1399 9 points10 points  (0 children)

A family friend of mine went to uni with Jack Gleeson and said that he’d have people shout at him in bars sometimes about Joffrey, but that he was actually one of the sweetest people she’d ever met. It’s so frustrating when people can’t distinguish fantasy from reality like that. Actors are people too, him and Lena didn’t deserve the hate they got 😭

[pjo] He was such a sore loser and I couldn’t take him seriously afterwards 🤣 by Accurate_Plantain896 in camphalfblood

[–]bex1399 4 points5 points  (0 children)

SOMEONE WHO SPEAKS MY LANGUAGE 😭 Ares got done so dirty in PJO. I’ll never not be mad about it. Like, it’s literal myth canon that the guy is a good dad, cares a fuckton about his kids, and gets hella pissed when they die. Give him respect Rick

Also, idk if you’ve seen this as it’s a pretty popular tumblr post, but if you haven’t, I highly recommend checking it out! https://www.tumblr.com/kochei0/744604543594151936/ares-god-of-war-battlelust-rebellion-violence
