    Summary

    Sometimes, Annabeth wonders if some of the Styx was left behind in Percy's bloodstream. It burned away all but a small part of his humanity tucked happily away on his back and yet, it still threatens what is left. It molded him into a perfect weapon the way metal is formed into a perfect handle for a gun. She thinks of how his jaw sets right before he lunges into battle, his teeth glinting like an animal. Somehow, did that poisoned river replace his bones with gunmetal? Did it sharpen his instincts similar to a wolf's teeth?

    There's so many heroes in this world and she's exhausted by the fact that he seems to be the top pick every single time. One day, she's worried that there will be a quest that he'll never return from. She's selfish and wants to keep him to herself--to keep him soft and human.

    Summary

    Annabeth hadn’t seen or talked to him in almost six months.

    Percy was supposed to be in California. In New Rome, living whatever quiet life the Romans had carved for themselves outside San Francisco.

    Not here.

    Not in New York.

    Summary

    “I’ve decided to make this simple.” The crowd leaned in.

    “A fight, to the death.” Luke said. The wind gusted across the deck, snapping the torches sideways. “The winner, walks off this ship alive… and takes Annabeth with them.”

    Percy remembered a different moment, quieter, far away from this ship, the words he had thrown at Annabeth without thinking, fierce and certain: that he would burn Olympus down if it meant saving her.

    He had meant it.

    But standing here now, with the salt wind in his lungs and Clarisse beside him, another question rose up like a weight he couldn’t push away: would he kill someone to prove it?

    “So,” Luke spread his hands. “choose.”

    And Percy understood the real cruelty of it: Luke wasn’t asking whether they would die. He was asking who would have to live with blood on their hands.

    Or

    Percy, Annabeth and Clarisse get captured on the Princess Andromeda trying to get the fleece. Luke decides his crew needs live entertainment: a duel to the death.

    And if Percy and Clarisse refused?

    Well that's what they have the son of Aphrodite for - charmspeak

    Summary

    Annabeth understood this the way she understood load-bearing walls and weight distribution. The enmity was structural. It held things up. You did not remove it without understanding what it was holding.

    She was twelve years old, and she understood it perfectly, and she was certain she would never have cause to think about it differently.

    Then a boy arrived.

    He was blonde and blue-eyed and looked like he had lost a fight with a lawnmower, and he was unconscious, and he smelled, unmistakably and impossibly, of the deep ocean.

    Annabeth stood in the doorway of the infirmary and looked at him for a long moment. Something in her went very still in the way that things go still right before something large and irreversible happens — the held breath before the earthquake, the instant of silence before a wave breaks.

    She did not name the feeling. She was twelve. She was the pride of her mother. She was going to be great.

    She turned and walked away.

    It would not be the last time she would try.
