To Starve Yourself Is To Have Control

Maybe my baby thought he didn’t deserve it? Maybe he saw the situation as a sort of punishment? Maybe he was ready to give up?

In House of Hades, Bob came for Percy but not Nico, who's supposed to have befriended him, in person.

Percy mentioned his name - he didn't even call - and Bob came jumping into Tartarus.

But he didn't assist Nico when he was half-dying (or had probably died and just self-resurrected with the DoD's absence) in there.

Why?

I don't think Bob, innocent and simple as he was, would refuse to help his friend.

So it means that Nico didn't call.

Huh. I wonder why.

Did he not call because he had been alone for so long that he'd forgotten? Did he not call because he didn't expect help, nor did he want it? Because he didn't want anyone he held dear to be in there, even when it meant being with him?

Oh. How lonely it must be to feel like that. You would go to the burning Hell for your friend, but you have no one to call when it's you who has fallen into one.

My dandelion, why did you forsake yourself.

I spent. all fucking day making this but I’m proud of it so! here! design a love letter, and I’ll tell you what mythical creature you are

it hurts so bad when you give everything, and you still aren’t even the second choice

Taking these circles of hell and the sins they represent and making them tangible and relatable and more human so that we can come to terms with the fact that the idea of sin is inherently learned and the ideas of things being morally good or morally bad are ingrained in us as people in a society and that we need to come to see everything as neutral for one reason or another is just so important like he knew what he was trying to do and he succeeded
