Summary: Jason goes to visit his boyfrind college
Jason walked to the library, taping his hand on his leg, feeling too conscious about being in a college library, technically was legal to be there, nobody was going to yell at him or throw him outside, but the people was staring at him.
“Hey, Superman” Piper, his best friend, was near the door, her eyes shining, a smile full of mockery on his lips “You should change your clothes”
“I just wanted to see both of you”
Piper grabbed the sleeve of the jacket, jugging the military uniform that Jason was wearing.
“Leo will be on the labs, I know you to want to be reunite”
“I missed you”
The sarcastic laugh of Piper made him smile, it was true that he wanted to see Leo more than anything, but she was his best friend and he missed her a lot.
“The roommate of Leo is out, family time, his bedroom is available for both of you”
Blushing, Jason followed Piper, the girl searching for a book, while they talked about their lives, six months without seeing each other, the boy talking about the program to become a pilot, the classes and the comareads, Piper talking about the college, the students, her roomate, and the professors.
When they got out, someone crash on Jason’s arms, starting to kissing him, leaving soft kisses on his cheeks, forehead and lips.
“You two are making a show”
“Shut up Piper, my boyfriend is here, I don’t care about other people”
“Hi, sweety” said Jason holding the waist of Leo, the boy hugging Jason with his legs, holding to his boyfriend like a koala.
“Go to your room to fight with Drew”
Piper yelled something, about bad friends that prefered to make out than being with her.
“I missed you so hard”
Leo kissed him, tightening the grip of his legs, his hands caressing the hair of Jason.
“I missed you too”
To keep Thalia and Jason as siblings, Jason could have been trapped inside Casino Lotus
oh my god i have absolutely awful au rolling in my head mmm you're going to dislike it
Where Reyna works in a coffe shop, and meets Thalia.
It was a hot day of summer, Reyna was sweating, standing in the cashier, fanning herself, looking at the empty café, the little place was hot, only a little window, small and impossible to open, the AC was broken, and won’t work for another week.
Thankfully, the day was to hot to go out, no dealing with rude clients.
The door opened, Reyna smiled, seeing her best friend walking in, Jason waved at her place, coming closer to the cashier.
“How’s it going?”
“Hot as hell, but no costumers.” Reyna sighed, looking at the empty tips jar.
“Same as always, for Piper and Leo too, they are in Leo the repair shop.”
“Lucky them,” muttered Reyna “Their AC is working.”
“I could bring some fans; Leo could build a small one.”
Reyna waved her hand, resting importance to the matter, making the beverage for her friends.
The door opened again, a bunch of girls walked in, loudly, the sat on the tables, one of them walking towards the cashier, all of them wore a leather jacket, Reyna catch the back of one of them, a half moon, with an arrow and a bow, were printed on it, the Huntress of Artemis, a gang of girls whom rode the country in motorcycles.
“Hey, Baby boy, could you move? I want to see the menu.”
The girl taking was tall, with short spiky black hair, a lot of piercings on her face, no make-up, something in her face looked familiar.
“I’m not a baby, Thalia.”
Reyna raised her eyebrows, dropping her eyelids, sending an accusing glare at Jason.
“I hope he’s not bothering you, I’m his sister, Thalia.”
“Don’t worry, he is a good guy, I’m Reyna.”
“I know, he loves to talk about you.”
One of the girls yelled, asking Thalia to stop flirting, Reyna blushed, finishing the order of Jason, ignoring the smile of Jason, full of mockery.
“I’m not flirting.” Thalia yelled back “But if you’re free this afternoon I could do it.” She added, winking at Reyna.
“She is free at six,” said Jason, while taking his order and going out.
“Do you want to go out on a date?” asked Thalia.
“If you’re not busy…”
“For a pretty girl, never”

Leo always enjoyed seeing Jason spar, the way he moves, like the wind, sometimes fast and destructive, like an hurricane, or slow, quiet and silent, like a heavy summer day, and the experience get better when the blond used his powers, the bolts coming out of his gladius, the raw energy, the way he moves with the wind, using the air to affect his enemies, jumping higher that any human being, staying up in the sky, like a superhero, like Superman.
Jason always looked confident when he was fighting, like he knows what he was, a fighter.
“Cariño” said Leo, sitting up, stretching his limbs “You killed that dummies, you can rest a little bit, I’m sure they won’t wake up and take revenge, di Angelo isn’t close to revive them”
“They weren’t alive, Nico can’t…”
Leo kissed the Son of Jupiter, fast and humid, making a really high smack sound, giggling after the face of Jason, the blush and the sweet smile, The Stupid Boy in Love kind of smile like Piper like to call.
“You can rest, you are not Superman, no the real one, you have weaknesses”
“But the Saturnalias are coming, and Reyna want me to fight against Percy or Nico, or both, and, as the only Roman, I have to shine”
Seeing the face of Jason, Leo could guess that the boy wasn’t sleeping the right hours, the bags under his eyes, the shineless hair, the rigid muscles, all Jason screamed tired, and the hearth of Leo icht, because his boyfriend was worrying too much, at the point of being sick, because of his duty.
“Jay Jay, you are blond, your hair is always shining”
The deep, sweet laugh, make Leo happy, holding the sword, he put it back in the case hanging from Jason hips, rubbing his hands along the waist and back of the boy, bringing him closer, in a hug.
“I’m the champion of Juno, I have to be the best”
“You are the golden boy of New Rome, the favorite pup of Lupa, you were essential to both wars, you are their champion, I think the people will be happy if all of you gave a great show, and Hazel can be there too”
Intertwining his fingers in Leo’s curls, Jason sighed deep, stretching the hug, kissing the head of the Son of Hephaestus, smiling happy.
“And I lost enough of my daily Sexy Time, is a lost that my boyfriend trained super hard and I can’t enjoy the looks”

The question is: why do people not share the artwork of their favorite creators? Stuff they like?
There has been post after post complaining how the dynamics and the like/reblog ratio on tumblr has shifted drastically over the past few years. Where people used to reblog heavily over liking the new ratio is often times 1:4 to even 1:6 reblogs to likes per post.
Don’t you know how devastating that is?
Imagine working on something for hours, days, weeks or even months. You put in on the Internet and people nod to it and pass by. No further encouragement. Nothing. At best it gets stolen on a different platform and someone else gets the praise for it.
Reblogs are the equivalent of saying ”Hey guys! This person did something amazing that I like! Check them out!“ Likes don’t get validated by the algorithm. Only reblogs matter. No wonder people are walking out and finding other media as Twitter or IG. Their ratios aren’t great, but better than tumblr.
If you have the audacity to cry about content creators abandoning their blogs because they feel unheard, you’re most likely part of the problem.
Creators of all sorts feel discouraged from creating more as their content doesn’t get seen as tumblrs algorithm and new guidelines simply fuck them over. Reblogs expose them to new audiences and new possible fans.
The only reasons why people don’t (immediately) reblog I can think of are
A) people liking stuff to place them later in a queue/reblog them
B) people want NSFW stuff hidden from their blogs
Even then, case a) is a strong one, case b) flimsy at best. You do realize that you can create more than one blog? Make an NSFW one? Tumblr isn’t like Instagram where you have to compete to comply for a certain aesthetics and where you have to fight for followers and sponsorships.
You have this huge platform where people do their craft for free and you’re not even willing to share it.
Do not engage with this post just to add shitty arguments.
