Hey, any Hephaestus's kids out there? I feel like Hephaestus is underrated.

@Solenneyyy OMG ARE YOU FR A CHILD OF HEPHAESTUS? AM I DREAMING? I’M SENDING YOU A FRQ LIKE IMMEDIATELY OMG
@Solenneyyy I’ve only met one here on gr! I guess that fine shyts like us are rare to find😌 here’s our sibling’s profile: https://www.goodreads.com/user/show/1... I don’t know him/her/them though…we’ve only exchanged 3 messages😭
yeppp😝 oh and I saw you’re also in a rp Riordanverse group. is it active?? ‘cause I’m considering to join too😗
It’s not really. I honestly just joined and forgot about it. Ooops 😂 But like I mostly joined bc I wanted to see if I could find another Hephaestus kid anywhere out there. But no such luck yet. Except with you girlie;)
yeaaah hadestown too but I’ve only viewed it onceee😭 (srry for replying late, I was sleeping, here in Italy rn it’s 7 am🫣)
yeppp oh and fun fact: I’m from a place that Odysseus visited in his journey‼️sorry for replying now, I’ve got the notifications turned off and I don’t know why…gotta activate ‘em rn
NO GURL TRUST ME, THE STATES AIN’T THAT BAD. I think that Italy is a wonderful place to visit as a tourist, but living in it is a total mess. uhhh I wanna move on but it’s sooo haaard😭 I’ll probably stay in Italy and move to Rome as soon as I end high school. so I’ll do there the University and then idk, whichever way the wind blows ig🤷🏻♀️
Girl I love your attitude! I mean yes us is great because we have Camp Half Blood and Camp Jupiter and New Rome.
I did apply to New Rome University still waiting to hear back. 🤞🏼🤞🏼
ARE. YOU. FR? I DIDN’T KNOW THAT SMTH LIKE THAT EXISTED IRL😭 I mean, I knew that there were some agencies that made CHB and CJ in the States but I didn’t know about New Rome University😫 hope you’ll get innn🫶🏼🫶🏼I’m still young to apply for Universities: I’m still 15😗. but yhh I keep dreaming about my futureee
no girlie I swear I am such a credulous person (even though I’m very VERY sarcastic)😭 I even googled online and saw that there is a New Rome in Ohio and I thought “…uhm…maybe there is an University there?” but then I checked and there wasn’t any Uni. so I was a bit confused😀BUT HAD YOU REALLY BEEN TO ONE OF THOSE CAMPS? no sarcasm this time, please😭🔫
I’ve seen LOTS of tiktoks of those camps and they look fun as hell. I mean, I go to a camp every summer as an entertainer and a group leader (and I assure you that dealing with children of four years old and twelve at the same time isn’t easy😔)
No I haven’t been to any of those camps lol. I want to though. Who wouldn’t.
But regarding the real CHB…well that’s between me and Hephaestus 🤣🤣
I feel that girlie. I’m a teacher and I work multi-class at a private school (1-8 year olds) 😂
I just realised that we would stay in the same cabin if we went to the camp🫢YOU’RE A TEACHER??? YOU LOOK SO YOUNG HON, I DIDN’T SEE THAT COMINGGG😭 how are the kids you’re teaching to??
in Italy you cannot be a teacher at 19😭 you have to be at least twenty-four if I’m not wrong!AWWW NICEEE what subject do you teach? here in Italy most of the elementary school teachers can teach every subject
Haha yeah I am too young for most schools here too. Ike of the mums is an older mum and she said the other day “I can’t believe my baby is being taught by a baby!” (She meant it in a playful way of course).
But I accidentally walked right into a dream job!
I teach all subjects. And we add in whatever they want to learn if they request it!
It’s pretty dam awesome! 😂I was playing with some random kid in the library next door to it (where I also work.🥰) and one of my coworkers was watching me and said “you have a gift. Hold on I have someone I want you to talk to.” And now I’ve built connections with all my students and the years barely started!
It took a long time to earn there trust but those little goblins stole my heart, I didn’t mind if it took forever to earn it. ❤️❤️❤️
the children must be really lucky to have you as a teacher if you give them the opportunity to make them learn a bit of what they wanttt😭 I would like to become a graphic designer when I’ll end high school and Uni! I think being a teacher is both fun and stressful, honestly…like, dealing with kids for such a long time would destroy my mental health😰
You would think it does🤣🤣They’re all so special, so smart, so sweet, so wild, they give you energy deep down you didn’t know you had!
OMG YOU LOOK LIKE AN IDEAL TEACHER HON GOOD JOBBB😭❤️ totally moving to the States if I’ll have children in the future to make them your students‼️oh and don’t worry for the spelling, you’re speaking to a B2 in English😅
My shining moment at the school was actually this week! One of the kids (bad adhd and can’t stand the word no) sat with me an built a huge dragon out of legos(he still didn’t speak to me until it was done) and afterword he looked at me and He said “ms. Solenne, I don’t want to leave school next year.”
Me: oh? Why’s that?
Him: no one else can hear me like you can. Even when I’m silent.
WHEN I TELL YOU I SOBBED TO TARTARUS AND BACK!!!😭😭😭
OMG YOU WON IN LIFEEEE😭‼️ tell me you hugged him PLEASE😭 that was so cuteee! is that kid a child of Hephaestus too? ‘cause building a dragon with legos and ADHD sounds pretty much like it🫣I remember that in my camp at june (I was one of the team leaders, precisely the leader of the red team) I was with a child on my shoulders and she told me “you’re my favourite entertainer, Bea, I want to be like you when I grow up!” (she even thought I was 30 when I’m literally HALF of it but that’s a small detail…). I immediately put her down and hugged her and cried SO MUCHHH. she clang onto me and I spun her. we practically stayed clasped together for the whole evening
totally!! ^^ maybe they’re not old enough to read PJO but a greek mythology lesson would be soooo cool
