Okay but think of this: •Percy and Annabeth purposely making their children’s life’s as amazing as possible. •Percy and Annabeth going out of their way to find technology to make their children’s normal public schools safe from monsters •Percy and Annabeth helping their kids with their homework and talking to them and making sure they’re okay at school •Percy and Annabeth who go to every single one of their children’s school games. Whether it’s a football game or swim meet or a fucking chess completion THEY GO •Percy and Annabeth taking their kids on trips to museums, to the beach, to DISNEY LAND •Percy and Annabeth taking their kids to Camp Half Blood for a week or so every summer •Percy and Annabeth taking their kids to hang with the Graces, and Zhangs and the Underwoods •Percy and Annabeth personally teaching their children Greek myths and overtime the king them stories about them as children •Percy and Annabeth teaching their kids ways to fight monsters just in case they ever needed to •Percy and Annabeth watching their childrwn grow from babies to toddlers to kids to pre teens to teenager OML •Percy and Annabeth crying as their children one by one trickle out of their house and getting on to their own lives •Percy and Annabeth just being great supportive parents who want their children to live good lives and not face the same burdens they ever have

how do cats even work

Cats:

  • A cat can jump up to five times its own height in a single bound.
  • The little tufts of hair in a cat’s ear that help keep out dirt direct sounds into the ear, and insulate the ears are called “ear furnishings.”
  • The ability of a cat to find its way home is called “psi-traveling.” Experts think cats either use the angle of the sunlight to find their way or that cats have magnetized cells in their brains that act as compasses.
  • One reason that kittens sleep so much is because a growth hormone is released only during sleep.
  • A cat has 230 bones in its body. A human has 206. A cat has no collarbone, so it can fit through any opening the size of its head.
  • A cat’s nose pad is ridged with a unique pattern, just like the fingerprint of a human.
  • If they have ample water, cats can tolerate temperatures up to 133 °F.
  • A cat’s heart beats nearly twice as fast as a human heart, at 110 to 140 beats a minute.
  •  Cats don’t have sweat glands over their bodies like humans do. Instead, they sweat only through their paws.
  • The claws on the cat’s back paws aren’t as sharp as the claws on the front paws because the claws in the back don’t retract and, consequently, become worn.
  • Cats make about 100 different sounds. Dogs make only about 10.
  • Researchers are unsure exactly how a cat purrs. Most veterinarians believe that a cat purrs by vibrating vocal folds deep in the throat. To do this, a muscle in the larynx opens and closes the air passage about 25 times per second.
  • A cat almost never meows at another cat, mostly just humans. Cats typically will spit, purr, and hiss at other cats.
  • A cat’s back is extremely flexible because it has up to 53 loosely fitting vertebrae. Humans only have 34.
  • Some cats have survived falls of over 65 feet (20 meters), due largely to their “righting reflex.” The eyes and balance organs in the inner ear tell it where it is in space so the cat can land on its feet. Even cats without a tail have this ability.
  • A cat can travel at a top speed of approximately 31 mph (49 km) over a short distance.
  • A cat’s hearing is better than a dog’s. And a cat can hear high-frequency sounds up to two octaves higher than a human.
  • A cat’s brain is biologically more similar to a human brain than it is to a dog’s. Both humans and cats have identical regions in their brains that are responsible for emotions.

And that’s how cats work.

Talking with writers online

Their stories: Amazing grammar, soaring vocabulary, beautiful imagery and prose which flows like a river.

In chats: no capitalisation or punctuation, swears like a sailor, misspellings everywhere, acronyms and abbreviations every five words, idek

I have never related to a statement more than “do you know how much braining it takes to make words go?”
