SO TRUE!

THIS!!!

today’s evidence that r*ck hates Aphrodite kids: their mother’s symbol is the dove and pigeons are doves and New York is full of pigeons but he didn’t let the Aphrodite kids weaponize the pigeons in the Battle of Manhattan even though that is the EXACT sort of thing that would happen in this universe

i love liking characters i know for i fact i would not get along with in real life

like i’ll defend drew tanaka until the day i die but i would be absolutely terrified of her if we went to the same school

jameson hawthorne is an interesting character and a fun read and he’s smart but i honestly think i’d steer clear of him cause hawthornes are bad news

Drew: you want to hear a gay joke? Malcolm: not really, but I don't think that's going to stop you Drew: you're right, now, drumroll please Malcolm: no Drew: Connor Stoll Malcolm: what Connor: i'm her gay joke Malcolm: *looks appraisingly* Malcolm: that was pretty good. it would have been better if she'd shoved you in a closet for you to come out of. Drew: this is why we're friends Connor: no, this is why lee hates us Drew: can't it be both?

kinda sad how the tradition of breaking someone's heart was the most interesting thing Rick wrote about the Aphrodite cabin and it was immediately thrown away by Piper

For me? 🥺

Girl you da best! I love all these lololol!!

Currently rereading HOO and I've noticed that there's a possibility that Annabeth and Connor are pretty close friends.

She's mentioned him a few times, and the way she talks about him makes it feel like they're close friends.

Like, she mentions how she almost killed him after he played a prank on her, she knows that he always burned a pack of M&M's for his dad during dinner, plus that letter "Not a prank. Don't be a moron. Love, Annabeth" You can't tell me that they're not friends!!

So yeah, give me some Annabeth and Connor shenanigans please🙏

I JUST FINISHED READING THE SEVEN HUSBANDS OF EVELYN HUGO IN CLASS AND I AM NOT OK 😭😭😭😭😭😭

I AM INLOVE!!!!

Winx inspired Drew Tanaka🤓

I could definitely see someone accidentally calling Drew “Drew Katana” because they all have dyslexia and katana and Tanaka have the same letters and every once in a while when she brings out a really vicious insult, people will say “the katana strikes again” or something

REAL! I saw that one too and was like WTF?!

I saw this Riordanverse tiktok that was like "women who would change for a man vs women who'd change the man." and the first half showed Drew Tanaka...REALLY, Drew "Come Get Your Boo" Tanaka, Drew "Break His Heart & Steal His Car" Tanaka, DREW "He Loves My Heartshaped Sunglasses(He Left His Card Unattended So I Used It To Book A Flight To Osaka)" TANAKA?! Oh that bitch aint changing her for a man just like she aint changing her mind about her sister! As soon as he says something about her makeup the relationship will already be over( as she should.) She'll file her nails in the middle of an argument and tell him to move and that he's blocking the sunlight. Shes not a pick me, she knows better than that.

back with my tkc rotations. thoughts on tanakane? (if i already asked you this and just don't remember, ignore me lol) (also ps i made a post on transmasc!zia and it's full of my transmasc experiences, if u wanna check that out)

I think we've definitely talked about it on Discord before but that's okay because every hours is Tanakane Hours!!

For those of you who haven't read The Kane Chronicles, Sadie Kane and Drew Tanaka (from Heroes of Olympus) go to the same school and there is that mean-girl dynamic between them. I see Sadie as being very "ugh i hate her she thinks shes so cool with her lustrous hair and milky skin and beautiful eyes and flawless appearance!!! this emotion is definitely hatred!!" Bi in Denial.

I like to imagine that something attacks the school one day and both Sadie and Drew are trapped together and mutually like "ugh now i have to protect this bitch."

Anyway, I'd have to go back and re-read, but iirc Drew's charmspeak didn't come up much in her brief appearances and I found that pretty surprising. Surely Sadie must have noticed how persuasive Drew can be. A lot of Sadie's frustration with her could easily come from how often authority figures seem to capitulate to Drew's demands, no matter how absurd.

Anyway I imagine Aphrodite looking down on the sexual tension between her daughter and this Egyptian, eagerly munching popcorn.
