Prompt from MessedUpBunnyBack: Jolly ranchers, Scoliosis, flower headband, gold, tissues, ribbon, and mainly, twilight


"I always loved twilight."

"I really hope you're not talking about the books, Thalia."

"No, the real twilight. The whole middle-of-sunsets thing. When the sky's all gold and pink and you think of all the nice stuff like the fact there's hope and humanity and warmth."

"Did the Hunters really brainwash you that much? Did they make you wear flower headbands and ribbons and sing in fields about the seasons and karma?"

"I'm being serious, Annabeth. It's at twilight that you can forget bad things exist like Scolisosis and cancer and fatal accidents."

"Do you need a tissue?" Annabeth, very amused.

"Do you need me to throw Jolly Ranchers at you?" Thalia, much less amused.

"No, no, I get it. Twilight really is great."
