When People Say Leave Room For The Holy Ghost This Is What They Mean

"Another night. A different boy with blue eyes. Wet weather in London."

Every time TID is brought up in a different book

sometimes you need dialogue tags and don't want to use the same four

This girl at my school: *literally punches others in the stomach (it hurts like hell), tried to full-on hit my best friend who is sweet and quiet, poked another kid in the eye and stepped on her new bag and made her cry for the first time we have seen, spreads shit about people and forced them to quit extra activities they did in school, spread rumours about me and my ex-best friend (now she won't even look at me and it HURTS), emotionally hurts people, cheats on tests even after she had been caught multiple times and throw others under the bus*

The others: *still try to be friends because it's basic humanity and gives up because she doesn't change*

The same girl: I'm abused at home and you have no right to be angry at me. Y'all are so rude, you ignore me all the time

*Me who has witnessed domestic violence of grandparents who live w/us since I was a baby, had stopped my grandfather from choking my grandmother at 10 yrs old, flinches every time someone touches me even when I've never been hit, whose mother has been abused as a kid but still, the strongest person I've seen*

Me: The fuck?

"I am the Prince’s shield. And a shield must be iron."

-The Sword Catcher-Cassandra Clare

sandman dropped at the exact right time for tumblr, since we’ve largely moved past having sexymen and are now exclusively into affectionately roasting men who are Pathetic(tm) which is exactly the treatment dream deserves

I mean look at this scrunkly motherfucker. he spent a hundred years sulking in a christmas ornament. he pisses everyone off everywhere he goes. he once sprinted out of a bar because his actual bestie suggested they might be friends. he’s so fucking rude <3 I want to crumple him up like a piece of scrap paper and do trick shots with him into my wastepaper bin

It’s the middle of the night. Chiron should probably get some sleep. Looking out of his window he sees two boys, they’re stargazing. Achilles! He thinks. Patroclus!

It’s only then that he realises that Patroclus’ skin is way too white and as glorious as Achilles was, he definitely didn’t light up like a glow stick in the night. It’s not them. It’s just Nico and Will.

It’s been over 2000 years, they’re dead, Chiron, they’re dead.
