sometimes I forget that like 90% of my ships aren’t canon ( usually because one or both of the characters are dead ) but then I just sigh and go back to reading fix it fics and gay AUs
Alex: ....
Alex: Magnus?
Magnus: Huh?
Alex: Where's the closest deep freezer?
Magnus: ...
Magnus: ...why...?
Alex, grinning maniacally as she/he skips down the hallway: We have a theory to test!
so someone asked me “at what temperature does genderfluid become gendersolid” and that got me thinking
Assuming they were referring to GeNdEr (germanium neodymium erbium) as gender it is technically possible to calculate the temperature needed to become gender solid
Because GeNdEr is a chemical that had not been tested for its freezing point, we are just going to use the number 1162.73333333333 C which is the average of all three freezing points for Ge, Nd, and Er
The ancient egyptians said the soul was composed of the life force, the personality, the identity, and the true name. Im going with Identity (akh) for this so the amount of GeNdEr present would be 10.5 kg (the average amount of water in an adult human x 0.25)
With a weight of 10.5 kg of GeNdEr we know that there is 0.02733371 mols present, which then dividing by 42 gives us 0.0006508
Multiplying this value by the freezing point of GeNdEr at that quantity we get 0.7567099 C as our freezing point depression
In conclusion, a gender fluid person would need to have their internals cooled to -0.7567099 C in order to become gender solid (keep in mind a person dies at 35 C and the average body temperature is 37 C)
PS I know im probably wrong about alot of this but its just a silly lil thing :3
i created a diagram of what i believe to be the most compelling relationships between the kids of the big three. please discuss
Michael: Uh, I think I got your lunch. {Holds up a note that reads: ‘I am very proud of you. Love,Lee’}
Will: Oh yeah. I didn’t think this was for me. {Holds up a note that reads: ‘Be good. For the love of Apollo, Please be good.’}
“how did you get into writing” girl nobody gets into writing. writing shows up one day at your door and gets into you
argshsgshdgdggdbd YES
Thinking about domestic Sunforge chat.
Just early morning were Michael is waking up early(thanks Apollo) and Jake just whines and wraps his arms around his waist, not wanting him to get up.
Michael just chuckling and kissing top of Jake's head before getting up and making them breakfast.
Them talking about what to eat for dinner why in an active fight or just working.
Them planning out chores that best suit them(Michael can wash the dishes, and put up all but the cups and some bowls. He will try to climb the counter to try though-). Them having to separate their clothing to wash because their clothes get different types of dirty(Jake with soot and grease from working on stuff. Michael with different germs and such from working in the infirmary)
Michael tending to any cuts,bruises or burns Jake got from the forge.
Them having a cat and after it gets really dirty from something they have to give it a bath to wash it off and both trying the bath the cat gdhdg
Just. Them being domestic.
Love idea that Michael is so much stronger than he looks.
Jake's strong too obviously, typical Hephaestus kids strength,but no one expects Michael be as strong as he is.
But this kid is hauling around people as a medic. Not to mention draw weight for a actual bow can be heavy especially for expert archers pretty sure. Any Apollo kid who main archery or are medics likely have lot of strength especially with their arms.
Michael is both an archer and an active medic(as we know Will learned under him). He's definitely strong.
Jake gets hurt and can't walk much on his own and Michael has no problem getting him to the infirmary.
Jake is a flustered mess,Beckendorf 100% is teasing him about it later hdhdg
This goes with other Apollo kids as well
Will's throwing people over his shoulder without second thought. Imagine Nico in the infirmary during the 3 days and just watching Will throw an fussy injured Sherman Yang over his shoulder and taking him to a cot to get him to lay down. No trouble doing it what so ever.
Lee too. 100% you have Luke, most respected and looked up to demigod in camp, who just gets picked up by Lee like he weighs nothing. Gods help him when he's in trouble.
Lee especially i feel pretty strong. He has even more years of being at camp and is fully grown. But like his siblings, he looks a whole lot more harmless than he is.
Idk why think idea of Apollo kids being perceived as harmless but able to absolutely wreck you is so fun. Think it fits them
Apollo is god of music, poetry, healing. But also of plagues and archery(usually used in war). He's god of the sun, which helps give life but can also harm you in the same vein. He's the god of truth, bringing light to one's own guilt and purifying them of it.
Despite everything he is, he's often seen for his lighter side.
Think his children being seen similarly is interesting
bored and I feel like joining lol
don't normally do chains but here I am 🤷🏻♀️

ARGHGHDHDNDDBDDDDHDBD THEY SHOULD BE CANON 😭😭😭
What do you mean their relationship is not canon?
What do you mean they have never even met in canon?
What do you mean the writers never wrote the subtext I have clearly been reading this whole time?

Writing late at night: ay, this is kinda good. I'm cooking something here.
Waking up the next day and reading it: get me out of the kitchen what the fuck is this
Lee: You treat an outside wound with rubbing alcohol. You treat an inside wound with drinking alcohol.
Travis:It's this cause Luke called you crying again?
Lee: He's upset he lost custody of Chris. Gods, Iris needs to add a block feature.
Michael: I still think killing him's easier, but hey, he's your ex.
it's givingggg....
✨Masonyew✨
in Michael's ratty but cute stage where Jake just can't resist picking him up and cuddling him until he can't breathe, and Michael's trying to decide whether to melt or fight him
Person A: "Please put me down."
Person B: "Were you always this small?"
Person A: "DOWN. NOW."
me writing an 80k+ word fic about Cabin 7 and exploring the lives of Michael Yew and Lee Fletcher, who are both practically nonexistent in pjo: light work
me writing a discussion post in college about the main character of a book: oh shit guys I don't think I'm built for this kind of pressure, 500 works is too many words
I love my girl, but she scares the shit out of me on a daily basis like girl-
please-
just sleep 🙏🏻
when the best friend says something super horrific at 1am and you have the immediate urge to drive an hour to her house to go hug her:
Actually, thought in my head now.
Au where Michael survives the fall from the bridge, but is somehow turned into a raven. And no one knows how to turn him back or who turned him in the first place.
Even Apollo is confused.
"I'm very thankful for who did, at last,was not me."
Everyone is relieved he still alive, but no one knows how to deal with raven Michael other than his siblings and Jake.
Surprisingly, he has not tried to peck out Clarisse' eyes yet.
Will still has to take over duties cause, well, hard to lead a cabin as a raven. But Michael usually chills on his shoulder during the day.
He also is bit of a typical raven menace by picking up random cool rocks and items he finds and gifting it to others.
Jake keeps a Lil box with all the stuff Michael's given him.
But yeah. Michael was already a menace at 4 ft 6. He's not any less now he's like hardly 2 ft hsgsf
He does keep trying to preen his siblings and Jake though. One time even Percy when he was blaming himself for the bridge situation.(either that or he was trying to pull on Percy's hair. Either way. Message received.)
Thinking about Charles and Lee being the two Jake and Michael first come out to and just how much fun they're having as big brothers hdhdg
Lee teases Michael for sure when Michael first realized he had a crush. Michael was confused over the feelings in his chest that felt like heart palpitations and was trying to figure out what was wrong. And Lee just immediately put two and two together the more Michael described how he was feeling. Playfully teased Michael about having a crush and him being dramatic about it.
Though, I'm thinking Jake's coming out/admitting about his crush to Charles is a lot more serious. Because Jake realizes more easily he has a crush, but he's processing that he has a crush on another boy.
And Charles comforts him about it of course.
"We're not machines,Jake. A difference in us from what we think is the norm isn't a malfunction in design. It's just who we are. If you like this boy, then you like him. Doesn't make you broken."
Yes I've been thinking about that line since last night when I first thought of it. And Yes I nearly made myself cry from it.
Both brothers are biggest supporters and og Sunforge shippers 100%
They cover for the two why they're sneaking out on dates, listen to them ramble about the other,etc.
After Lee dies,Charles practically becomes a big brother to Michael. Helping him get his footing as a head counselor and such.
Loosing Charles was like loosing another big brother to Michael.
Michael: I'm so tired of this life. I want to be a roomba. I want knives taped to me. And I want to be set loose.
sat on my school bus rn and I've just had possibly the cutest but most depressing idea ever
what if Lee used to have a habit of collecting ducks?
like, plastic, glass, metal, whatever, just yellow ducks
hats, spots, stripes, accessories, this man has a whole army
and he made a habit of hiding them around cabin seven and the infirmary and when any of his siblings were sad or needed distracting he'd send them to find a specific duck and they'd be searching for the next hour for a fucking yellow and pink polka-dot duck with a tiara
and when he dies, everyone completely forgets about this until Will rummages through a drawer in the infirmary one day and BOOM
cowboy duck✨
and suddenly everyone's finding ducks everywhere, in shoes and drawers and the archery range storage cabinet and that one part of the strawberry fields where Lee and Castor used to hang out and whenever someone missed him they'd all go on a hunt for a duck until they had over a hundred of the fucking things
but still, even years later, after the TOA, Jerry finds a duck with a grapevine hat and a guitar, and Will, Kayla and Austin burst into giggles while he looks at them in confusion
'what? why are you laughing?'
'nothing. nothing at all.'
:D
@pain-is-too-tired I might be taking you up on that at some point :D
I have no experience 😅 Google is my saviour
*deep sigh*
*walks into the room*
*sits at the table*
*slams hands on the table*
I need opinions
okay that was slightly more dramatic that necessary but I need serious opinions because I'm stuck and conflicted.
👍🏻
so! I am currently in the middle of writing a Michael Yew fic (surprise surprise) with large elements of Masonyew (surprise surprise it's like 90% of the content and they're nowhere near being together yet) and it's basically a very long fic that starts when Michael gets to camp at nine years old (my headcanon) and ends a few years after he comes back to life in some of my Michael Yew lives aus
right
that's the backstory
yes, that is a very long fic idea but I have it planned out and even though I'm only a minor section of the way thru I have hit a hurdle
here is where I need opinions
so, I may or may not have had a really weird idea and went
what if I made Michael type one diabetic and added that to his six mile long list of problems already, simply for character development
because I'm nice like that
so I'm currently warring with myself over whether or not to go thru with it because, I'm gonna be honest, I am not diabetic, nor do I know anyone who is diabetic, so all of my info has been researched heavily, but it's kinda in the name of diversifying camp half blood even more, because why not?
however, I'm not sure if by doing so I might be messing with his character a bit and maybe taking it too far, so I'm just gonna go ahead and go I need help
so, let's poll it
honesty is appreciated, if you hate the idea, please tell me
just try not to openly insult me, that would be appreciated
Messaging people for the first time is so hard. What am I supposed to say? Like, "You seem really odd and your blog intrigues me. Do you want to have philosophical conversations or perhaps talk about fictional characters?" What! Whatever. I will just follow you back and stare at your blog with my big beautiful brown eyes.

I just wanted to come here to tell you how much I love all your fics. Like it started with chb before depression and that got me absolutely obsessed with Michael x Jake and now I’ve already read ‘get me out of here (I might just take you with me)’ twice and ‘it all started in the laundry room (I’m just the same as you)’ three times even though it’s over 100k and I regularly get the urge to reread it again because it’s just so good (the only reason I don’t is because I know I will binge it and I have school stuff to do right now but it’s only a matter of time until I read it for the fourth time). Really I’m just obsessed with how you write them and your writing in general. Like they are so soft and you somehow manage to find the exact balance between angst and fluff that I love. I am also absolutely obsessed with Em, she is canon to me now. So is Michael having survived the fall from the bridge, cabin 7 needs some happiness
you have no idea how happy this message made me, oh my god I was not expecting that when I checked my inbox this morning and just-
argghggghggggh :D :D
you have just put me on a sugar high for the whole day THANK YOU that is so sweet and honestly it means so much to me that you've read those works and you like them and that you appreciate my weird style of writing, they have such a lot of chemistry that I can cook up, and I'm never quite sure how it will end up but to hear that you like it is all I need :) <333
I'm kinda lost for words rn, not sure how to convey how absolutely buzzing I am from this :D
also it makes me so happy to hear you like Em, she has always been canon to me and she's by far my fav oc so it make me SO HAPPY to hear you like her!
and Michael living has never even been a question to me, in fact, I am about seven paragraphs away from posting a third part to 'screw canon happy endings rule' that he and Jake are quite present in so this is just adding to my excitement about that too omg I think I'm actually high off this comment :D
xD giggling and kicking my feet right now THANK YOU AGAIN ARGH <333
fic writers in the tags tell me the fic you're most proud of writing. any fandom, ship, no ship, any length etc. whatever work makes you go "oh i wrote this" and elaborate why if you want
“And where have you been?”
Will freezes, feet halfway in the door, eyes locked on his brothers in what only can be described as a deer in headlights look. The standoff lasts several seconds as Will debates whether to back out the way he came or get hit by the oncoming car. Like most deers when faced with a life or death situation, he remains put as his very brief time on this mortal plane flashes through his mind.
Illuminated under a singular lamp, like their about to perform an interrogation- dramatic fucks- is Micheal with quite possibly the most shit eating grin Will has ever seen; and Lee, who's expression alone tells him he's about the get the scolding of a life time.
“Helloooo, dear brothers!” Will cajoles, plastering on as bright a smile as humanly possible. “Don’t you two just look lovely this fine morning!”
“Where have you been?” Lee repeats, undeterred by Will's poor attempt at flattery.
“I was on a morning walk!” -not a complete lie- unfortunately, stupid Apollonian traits didn’t see it that way, his traitorous voice squeaking up several more octaves than necessary as he starts to cough. Thanks a lot dad.
Micheal only grins wider, “Nice try, we saw you leaving at eleven, Which means,” -He pauses to theatrically check his watch, despite the fact that he does not, and has never, owned a watch- “you’ve been gone a whole eight hours now!”
“You saw me leave? Wait- Have you two been sitting here all night waiting for me?”
“Not important-”
“What is important,” Lee cuts in, “Is what on Earth you could have been doing at such ungodly hours in the evening?”
“I wasn’t doing anything!” He insists with a whine high enough that all the dogs in New Jersey collectively howl.
“You we're out all night, William Andrew-” oof, Is the full name really necessary? “-No teenager who crawls out of a window, falling on his face as he does so, I might add-” Okay, rude. “-In the dead of night, is ever up to anything good”
He scolds him with a tone that could rival even his southern mama. Quite the impressive feat Will must admit (in his head of course, never out loud, Lee would like that too much). Truly he rues the day his older brother officially meets The Naomi Solace in person. Those forces are simply too powerful that if they joined it would throw off the balance of every ecosystem within a thirty mile radius. Two hawks sharing a territory while he is but a simple field mouse doomed forever under the gaze of the predators, with little places to run, always being caught. What crimes did he commit in a past life to deserve such a hellish tragedy?
Locked in another stalemate and desperate to escape the hole he's in, he takes the most logical option- not putting down the shovel of course- but scoffing at the pure audacity that they would be accusing him of the thing he very much did do.
“I am offended, at you implying that I of all people! Would be up to something heinous! I mean, ME!?!? I am a VERY good kid! I am very responsible! I am ALWAYS on time!!-”
“Can you even tell time?”
“I follow all the rules to a T!-”
“That's not even close to accurate”
“I am extremely respectful to my elders!-”
“Ha! That's funny.”
“I have never done anything against the law!-”
“Somehow I doubt that.”
The rest of the cabin starts to awaken to bear witness in what surely will be Will’s final days on this earth. None of them come to his aid of course, all finding the situation to be much to humorous. Even his patented puppy eyes fail at getting him any assistance in his battle with the all mighty tyrant that is Lee Fletcher.
He makes his way past his brothers and to his bed, doing his best to ignore them as they just swivel their chairs. Where the hell they even got those chairs he has no idea. He rips his flannel off, throwing it onto his bunk- he is nothing if not theatrical- and turns back around to continue arguing his case when the hushed snickers of his traitorous siblings increases to snorts and giggles. Micheal has all but fallen over in hysterics while Lee’s scowl has somehow deepened.
“What?”
“Rookie mistake, William,” Micheal says between guffaws, “Rookie mistake.”
He looks down to where his siblings are pointing and where should be, his neon camp shirt, is a black tee that reads ‘cabin thirteen’. “Shit.” he mumbles, cautiously looking up at his eldest brother who has a look so cross he could probably pass as a southern grandma who just got her finest china broken by roughhousing grandkids.
“I am going to have some words with that boy.” He announces, much to Will’s utter horror.
“Don’t you dare!”
“I will-”
“You are the actual worst!”
“That boy is a bad influence-”
“I hate you so much.”
“I think I will contact his sister too.”
“What the fu-.”
“Language, William.”
“Oh fuck you!” he exclaims before his brain can catch up to stop him from shooting himself in the foot and most likely condemning him to a lifetime of stable duty.
“Thats its, you are grounded, Young Man-” The tyrant declares, officially shackling him.
“What! You can’t do that!” He argues, pointlessly fighting against the chains.
“I absolutely can.”
“No-!”
“I want you back in the cabin by seven thirty each night for the foreseeable future.”
“SEVEN THIRTY!?!?” Will screams, “The campfire’s not even done by seven thirty!!!” He argues, flailing his arms as if that will help get his point across.
Lee nods, “Seven thirty.”
“I am not a child I don’t need a curfew!!”
“You are a child.”
“Are not! I’m fourteen!”
“A child.”
“UGHhhhhhhh!” He screeches, miming a crushing motion with his hands, hoping to explode Lee’s head via the force. It, unfortunately does not work.
He then decides to stand up and announce that it is breakfast time before casually leading the rest of the apollo campers out of the cabin as if he didn’t just ruin a poor innocent teens life.
“Well that was amusing,” Says his annoying younger sister, hanging back from the group, reveling way to much in his suffering.
“Shut up Kayla.”
She just grins, looking far to similar to Micheal for his liking. “I just can’t wait till he finds out about your tattoo.”
“Oh gods.”
---------------------------------------
So this is part of an au/verse I'm working on where basically everyone lives and they all get to be normal teens with semi normal teen problems. (It will probably end up being mostly cabin seven based cause they're my fav) It's not gonna be written in a specific order or anything probably just a bunch of one shots of things I think of. Let me know what you think and if you have any suggestions of prompts/story lines for this verse lmk.
Also Lee is supportive of Will and Nico's relationship he's just being an annoying older brother cause he can.
Luke: Small creatures are just more vicious. Their anger has less space to be bottled up in. Silena: That's ridiculous! Give me one example of this. Luke: Terriers. Beckendorf: Wasps. Lee: Michael.
YES YES YES YES YES YES
Michael, for the most part, doesn't like people touching him.
There's very few people who he's comfortable with physical contact.
Thing is, to those few people, he's very touchy with.
If one of the Stolls grabbed his arm? He snap at them.
Yet he'll just randomly snuggle up in Jake's lap like it's nothing.
You'll easily find him and his siblings in a cuddle pile in their cabin.
He doesn't even think about it sometimes. Him and Will would be working on something in the infirmary and Michael will just lean on his younger brother why they're looking at something. Or Sits down by one of his siblings laying on their bunk why they're all in the cabin talking and just starts running a hand through his siblings hair.
And it's real common thing for the Apollo cabin. They're very clingy as a family. Small bits of physical affection just how they show their love. They're all kinda like outgoing cats.
Whole cabin of orange cats/j
But yeah. Jake was taken a back when Michael first got comfortable enough to be physically affectionate. It was before they were dating, and probably before Michael even realized he liked Jake like that.
Michael had came in why Jake was in the forge. Jake had lost track of time and missed two meals and Michael was trying to get him to his cabin to rest.
When it came clear there was something on Jake's mind Michael had gotten him to sit down and talk about it
Jake had started tearing up and,without even thinking, laid his head on Michael's shoulder trying to hide his face from him.
Michael didn't say anything, or move, he just let Jake let out his built up emotions. At some point he started absentmindedly playing with Jake's curls.
Jake was surprised at first, but then leaned into it. Relaxing at the contact.
Later on when they are dating, Jake sits down with Michael after finally getting him to slow down after Lee's death.
Michael breaks down crying, burying his face in Jake's chest. Jake doesn't mind, and just holds him close.
He starts to run his fingers through Michael's hair, and immediately learns that Michael loves having his hair played with.
Michael just leans into it, relaxing even as tears are still falling. Just letting Jake continue the motion until he passes out from exhaustion from the last few days.
Just- Michael being so clingy to those he loves and only accepting physical touch from them one my fav things.
