I JUST WANT YOU TO KNOW THAT I WAS SUPPOSED TO BE IN BED TEN MINUTES AGO, BUT I DECIDED TO CHECK LJ AND FOUND THIS. I AM READING THIS FIRST THING TOMORROW.

Oh, fuck, I want to read this now. Why, oh, why do I have to do things tomorrow?

THERE IS SO MUCH I LOVE ABOUT THIS STORY AND IF I HAD MY WAY, I THINK I WOULD QUOTE HALF OF IT TO YOU.

Just how do you do it? You can throw out a single line, just one innocuous thing, and suddenly you forget to breathe for an instant, your reality freezes as they words fall about inside your mind and reform into something with so much meaning and depth that you're stunned.

Just a few simple words, and suddenly you've said so much, even though you've left it all in the silence. It's not even reading between the lines, it's more like knowing there's something hiding around the corner, something huge and ominous, something that can change things for you.

I love your descriptions and how your words wrap together to form an image, a feeling, an impressive that stays with you and makes everything real, turns characters into people and situations into events where the outcome matters to your emotional state.

asf;akf;aslkfj YES, the minute I saw this I couldn't contain myself and sort of jumped out of my chair. I so want to just start it all right now, but my laptop's Internet is broken, evidently, and I want to enjoy this like I'm sure it deserves to be enjoyed, so I'll have to wait just a little. But TSN/PJO? This means so much to me, I can't even! EXCITE

[antistar_e]

asdfghjkl; YESSSSS. ngl I don't even know where it came from. I sat down to start writing something else and my brain was just like HEY. HEY. HOW ABOUT WE PUT EVERYONE INTO CABINS INSTEAD? and I was like, um, okay, brain, I will add it to the queue. And my brain was like LOL NO HOW ABOUT NOW.

And while I was writing it, I was like, I wonder if there's ANYONE on the Internet who's read Percy Jackson AND seen the Social Network. Answer: oneoffour111, dwimmer, aimmyarrowshigh, and storylandqueen.

A READERSHIP OF FOUR IS GOOD ENOUGH LET'S WRITE THIS.

tl;dr, hiiiiiii I hope you enjoy ♥

[lucdarling]

Have I said it lately that I love your brain? No?
I LOVE YOUR BRAIN. AND YOU.

because PJO/TSN is a fantastic brilliant idea. Minor gods, Castor & Pollux, Divya being nice, Christy as cabin leader, aaaaah so much glee in my corner of the world right now. ♥
