no but dude I can’t stop thinking about how annabeth was always so jealous and snarky and a little shit and always reacted so badly to anything slightly emotional because she was just. so. damn. afraid of people she loved leaving her. she probably blamed (or blames) herself a lot for the amount of shit that went down, so she has this enormous wall built up only it starts to disintegrate because of the goddamn boy everyone says is going to die. only he doesn’t. he sits besides her and brushes blue frosting off his hands and tells annabeth that the reason why he is alive is her. that the thing that connected him and his mortal life while he was in the styx was annabeth. and holy shit I can’t stop thinking about how crucial that moment must have been for her - realizing that no, he’s not leaving, he’s safe and he’s going to be there and it is all because of her
