hello there
@SeparationAnxietyOverload how’s it going
@SeparationAnxietyOverload what’s up
@SeparationAnxietyOverload how’s life
@toastydoodler
up and down.
@SeparationAnxietyOverload i hope there are more ups than downs! but i get it. same here
@SeparationAnxietyOverload what’s going on
@toastydoodler
hi im so sorry I've been inactive i couldn't get the hang of the forums haha
@SeparationAnxietyOverload that’s ok! i fee you, there a little hard to figure out
@toastydoodler
im sorry for being a bad person haha
@SeparationAnxietyOverload i know it can feel like that sometimes but you’re not! i can prove it if you need me to: a bad person wouldn’t be so polite, and a bad person wouldn’t seek help or lean on others. i’m glad that you can talk to me about things.
@toastydoodler
this means so much to me I can't even express it thank you so much. I think I'm fine now thank you for always being there for me. I guess I just want to move on from this so let's talk about something else? Maybe Books? If you don't want to, I'm open to other suggestions :)
@SeparationAnxietyOverload i would love to talk about books! they’re some of my favorite things. i’m a big fantasy girl myself. i remember you talking about the cruel prince, what do you like about it?
@toastydoodler
I love fantasy too! im so happy you actually remember the Cruel Prince! it wasn't the best fantasy book I've read but it was pretty good! the lore was nice. especially the fae part of the book because I wasn't too familiar. What fantasy books have you read? =)
@SeparationAnxietyOverload i like the ones where a hero goes on an adventure. my friend introduced me to the keeper of the lost cities series and i like it, and i also like percy jackson and harry potter (cliche i know). i just really want to go on an adventure. fantasy makes it happen.
@toastydoodler
that's super relatable to me as well! I feels nice to get lost in a fictional world sometimes. I haven't read the keeper of lost cities and I probably will check it out after my examinations. Percy Jackson and Harry potter are just classics as well! I also love the Heroes of Olympus by Rick Riordan as well. =)
@SeparationAnxietyOverload yes! i’m glad you get it. fair warning: keeper is a very long series (10 books plus 2 in the works) and the books themselves are pretty long too but they get good, especially as you get further along the series. also, what did you like better, the percy jackson books or the heroes of olympus books? house of hades broke my heart 😭
@toastydoodler
oh I'm not used to reading super long series but I'm open to try! I loved the heroes of Olympus better than percy Jackson tbh..i think it has more characters and more development. I also LOVED house of hades cuz of Hazel and she's super cool! who's your fav character? =)
@SeparationAnxietyOverload i really love annabeth because i feel like i can relate to her a lot but reyna and thalia are also favorites! and clarisse is more from the first series but i feel like there’s definitely more to her character than we know. i love all of them <3
@toastydoodler
Annabeth is such an iconic character! I love her quick wit and intelligence! Reyna is also super cool especially becuz shes such a good leader. I also loved how gentle Clarisse can be to silena which really shows how nice she is! If you were to be a child of any god who would it be?
@SeparationAnxietyOverload i feel like it would either be apollo or athena because i tend to pride myself on my intelligence and i also love the arts and i always want to help people (like a healer). what about you?
@toastydoodler
This is soo relatable. I would love to be like someone with powers or something tho. Like I want to be able to make a difference. Probably like Hecate or Hypnos HAHA
@SeparationAnxietyOverload those sound like great choices! and powers would be cool. part of me wishes that things like that were real but the other part knows it wouldn’t be used very well. it’d still be cool though. what do you think would be the most useful superpower?
@toastydoodler
That's true. from the books we can already tell that great power can be abused. In like a real world setting I would probably like to have mind control but in Greek mythology I would probably like to have piper's power of charmspeaking.
@SeparationAnxietyOverload
have you read any other fantasy books? I remember reading this dragon series that was pretty good. Its called the Wings of Fire series it was pretty good and I especially liked one of the dragons that could camouflage with its surroundings. Have you read any dragon related books?
@SeparationAnxietyOverload hiiii wyd
@toastydoodler
im having a panic attack My mom got mad at me
@SeparationAnxietyOverload
i hate existence im sorry if this triggers anything in you but i really can't take it. Just moulding myself into the person everybody wants and when I try to find myself, im lost like there's nothing. Just fog and haze and mirrors and reflections there's something very very wrong with me. IM sorry for ranting i hope you have a good day.
@SeparationAnxietyOverload
I can't take this anymore. My mom is just so narcissistic like why can't she just let me have my own friends and my own life and my own grades and my own feelings? She just wants to control everything. She made me lose a really important friend just because she didn't like my friend's mother like what? How does that remotely make any sense? And then just because I like that friend and she literally is my bestie and helped me get through tough times I'm writing a letter to her to thank her. But my mom just had to storm in my room and demand to see what I was doing and then she just started yelling at me about my friend and I told her that I'm writing it about another person but then she doesn't believe me and then I just started to cry and cry and cry and like my whole outer protective layer just shattered on me and I feel so vulnerable. My dad is going to scold me in the car tomorrow morning and I still have to go to school and I really don't know how I can get through this.
@SeparationAnxietyOverload
Im a horrible human being and Im sorry for trauma dumping because that's what you totally don't deserve and I'm sure that you are a beautiful, amazing , strong and courageous human being and im telling you this because I don't know if I can tomorrow. don't feel sad or guilty im not worth that. Im such a horrible person I just feel so sad and bad and stupid when I see you posting here alone and like me not replying after like a week like im so sorry like so so so sorry. well i hope you're doing okay and please don't care about me.
@toastydoodler
thank you so much this really helped me <3
@SeparationAnxietyOverload i’m glad :)
@SeparationAnxietyOverload i love that series! the rainwings are my favorite too. i liked how glory never let anyone step on her. who was your favorite? (sorry this wasn’t in the thread, it’s running off my screen)
@toastydoodler
OMG you read it too! I loved Tsunami and ofc, Glory. I just thought that both of their fighter spirits are extremely inspiring and it would be nice to have some of their confidence haha. Itsok the thread was way to long anyway LOL. Who was your favourite? I only read until like the brightest night because they didn't have the rest of the series at my library. Im thinking of getting the e-book copy. But I loved the first 3 books =)
@SeparationAnxietyOverload i kind of skipped around through the series but i understand it well enough from my sister’s ramblings. i like the third arc a lot and there’s a character who i really like named cricket, and then glory ofc and also some other characters from the second arc. (what can i say, i’m indecisive)
@toastydoodler
HAHA true. I probably should continue reading it so I know the other characters. I accidentally skipped to like the middle of the series by getting the wrong book so I was super confused and I just got bored and stopped trying to find other libraries which had those books
@SeparationAnxietyOverload
i wonder if you've read the cruel prince series haha. well its nighttime for me now so I'll talk to you tomorrow! have a nice day =)
@SeparationAnxietyOverload that’s so real. in my opinion the later books are the better ones but i don’t think i’m qualified enough to say that say that since i didn’t read all of the first ones sooooo 🤷♀️
@toastydoodler shoot sorry that was for the other thread mb, no i haven’t read the cruel prince but it sounds interesting and when school starts again i can look for it in the library.
