Wymackš¤Rhemann: becoming a father figure to a seriously traumatized kid who was sold to the Moriyamas and whose parents are criminals.
Great way to resume the son of Neptune
hazel: frank why do you even like me. I'm a zombie I shouldn't be here I ruin everything I touch and everything with gaea is my fault I'm a terrible person and also I should die
frank: I would set myself and everyone else in this room on fire to keep you warm
percy (the only other person in the room): man what the hell did I do
Neil I-need-to-live-obscurely-so-Iām-never-ever-found-otherwise-Iāll-be-killed Josten:
*taps a microphone* āto all the mobs currently out for my life: this is my address, social security number, and schedule of all the times Iāll be home alone without protection.ā
Andrew, who just promised to keep him alive:
āI donāt want you to be like Zaneā¦I donāt want Coach to be like the master. I donāt want to teach Tanner contrition when he continuously fails my drills or to break my racquet over Catās back if I think she should have performed better. I donāt ever want to go back to how things were. Maybe you are fools, and I am the biggest fool for indulging you, but better to be reckless fools than Ravens.ā
OP, just know you are perfect!
It annoys me so much when people say AFTG is badly written, this post is just PERFECTION
Thank you!!
Many people have said the book series All For The Game by Nora Sakavic is badly written. However, I believe it is not. To prove this, I made a compilation of posts that explain why the books are meticusly crafted and amazingly written.
*disclaimer: I'm not claiming the books are perfect or have no mistakes, it is impossible for any book to be that way, I'm just saying that it's not even half as bad some people claim it to be

DID RICK JUST CALL JASON THE SON OF JUNO?!?!
Oh my poor heart-
They way this ties perfectly with the fact that it was Hera/Juno who mourned him and not his own fatherā¦.
He really was her boyš„¹
Couldnt agree more
Iām not gonna lie. On a Paramore kick right now.
Turn it Off by Paramore is Renee coded.

exy, trauma, repeat.
We all stan David Wymack
Wymack took two teenagers who were so afraid of coaches and older men they flinched at his presence and loved them so hard they think of him as a father
And thats why he is my fave, dude is a literal menace
Also, Aaron absolutely not reacting to Neil throwing sh*t at him is so funny. Unbothered king
my favorite scene in all of literature is when Neil Josten wakes up in Columbia after being drugged, hurls an alarm clock at Aaron, dumps his water on the floor and throws the cup at Aaron, stuff his clothes down the toilet and squeezes out through the window, has the foresight to call Matt from a pay phone to protect his shit, hitch hikes back to campus, eyes back to brown?? shows up on Wymackās door like š and reveals he could speak German the whole time?? CHARACTER OF ALL TIME, that is a protagonist who knows how MOVE THE MFING PLOT ALONG
