some time ago i introduced the phrase "food pact" to my friends as a shorthand for "i'll go make and eat food if you also make and eat food" and ever since then ive just started incorporating more pacts into my life. stay hydrated pact. stretch break pact. stop doomscrolling and go to bed pact. we need to bring this back in vogue more people should be making pacts imo

Percy: water+ sword, Annabeth: dagger, Reyna: spear, nico: darkness and sword, hazel: glowing stones, Frank: bear arm and bow+arrow, Piper: dagger and hearts, Jason: sword and lightning, and Leo: fire]
Oh hey look it’s my favorite fucking scene in the entire series.
At this point, Barnaby’s been fighting for…God, who knows how long. He hasn’t made any headway. He’s exhausted. He’s utterly alone. He’s been preparing for this moment for twenty years and when it comes down to it, he’s failing and he’s not sure he can win. And if he doesn’t win, he fails not only himself, but the entire city.
And when he finally collapses, Kotetsu shows up out of nowhere to catch him.
Kotetsu, who was beaten so badly at the end of the last episode he ended up in the ICU, who until very recently was unconscious in the hospital. Who used his powers to heal himself just enough that he could get out here to help Barnaby.
Throughout the entire season, Barnaby has been the one who shows up in the nick of time to save Kotetsu. Hell, that’s how we’re introduced to his character. He’s the one who’s popular, who’s the new hotshot, who to all outward appearances doesn’t need any help.
But this scene illustrates more explicitly what we’ve already seen: Barnaby might save Kotetsu, but Kotetsu is always there to save Barnaby right back. It’s not as obvious or as high-profile as Barnaby swooping in to catch Kotetsu as he falls. It’s more subtle, like standing there to offer a listening ear or a show of silent support, a reminder that Barnaby isn’t alone anymore.
And even when they fight, even when Barnaby says “I can’t trust you anymore,” Kotetsu will still be there to catch him. Not with a quip or a joke or any snark, but with a soft smile and asking him if he’s all right.
Because they’re partners, and this is what they do.
