You assume that it has to be a male god who finds a human female attractive? How sexist is that?

I was wondering how you got all that out of a single moooooo

The good thing is Jason and I both outrank you so we can both tell you to shut up.

Percy hefted a bronze grenade. 'I hope you labelled these right.' He yelled, 'Die, Romans!' and lobbed the grenade over the wall.

I'll be back with the sandwiches, she said. But I had some leftover seven-layer dip.Yum. Percy dug in with a tortilla chip. She's kinda famous for this, guys.Sally ruffled his hair. There's guacamole,...

Yeah, you bet Romani.' Percy bared his forearm and showed them the brand he'd got at Camp Jupiter- the SPQR mark, with the trident of Neptune. 'You mix Greek and Roman, and you know what you get? You...

As a general rule, I preferred not to have my soul reaped.

We heard the army before we saw it.The noise was like a cannon barrage combined with a football stadium crowd- like every Patriots fan in New England was charging us with bazookas.

Percy: Dad-Poseidon: Very well! It shall be as you say. But my son, pray this works.Percy: I'm praying, I'm talking to you, right?Poseidon: Oh...yes. Good point.

So,' Nico said, 'since we're going to be spending at least a year seeing each other at camp, I think I should clear the air.' Percy's smile wavered. 'What do you mean?

Annabeth frowned. Percy's sword is a she?Jack laughed. Well, .Percy studied Riptide, though I could've told him from experience it was almost impossible to tell a sword's gender by looking at it.I...

I looked at the campers, all of them grim and determined. I tried not to feel like this was the last time I'd ever see them all together. 'You're the greatest heroes of this millennium,' I told them....

Beckendorf closed eyes tight and brought his hand up to his watch.from that distance, the explosion shook the world. Heat seared the back of my head. The Princess Andromeda blew up from both sides, a...

Annabeth shook her head. All these years sneaking around, and we could've just been ourselves?You should do that. Alex strolled alongside, back in human form, though he still had a few flamingo...

Grover started to sniffle and I figured if I didn't cheer him up he'd either start bawling or chewing up my mattress. He tends to eat household objects whenever he gets upset.

No, I said. I choose the prophecy. It will be about me....

Nico clenched his sword. Sharing his secret crush hadn't been the worst of it. Eventually he might have done that, in his own time, in his own way. But being forced to talk about Percy, being bullied...

We only came close to dying six or seven times which I thought was pretty good. A minute later Annabeth hit a slippery patch of moss and her foot slipped. Fortunately she found something else to put...

Annabeth looked at me. We have to get out of here. You think I want to be in the girls' restroom? I mean the ship, Percy! We have to get off the ship. Smells bad, Tyson agreed. And dogs eat all the...

I should throw you off this building minus the flying horse and see how heroic you sound on the way down.

Then something occurred to me.Get closer, I told Blackjack.He whinnied in protest.Just within shouting distance, I said. I need to talk to the statue.Now I'm sure you've lost it, boss, Blackjack said

Percy Jackson, Hermes said, because you have taken on the curse of Achilles, I must spare you. You are in the hands of the Fates now. But you will never speak to me like that again. You have no idea...

I turned and faced the Olympians.We need a shroud, I announced, my voice cracking. A shroud for the son of Hermes.

So I took her hand, and I don't know what everybody else heard, but to me it sounded like a slow dance: a little sad, but maybe a little hopeful, too.

I didn't understand how. But the toilets had responded to me. I had become one with the plumbing...

That's us, he said. Those five nuts right there.Which one is me? I asked.The little deformed one, Zoe suggested.Oh, shut up.

Percy and Reyna occupied matching praeters' chairs on the dais, which made Percy self-conscious. It wasn't easy looking dignified wearing a bedsheet and a purple cape. The camp is safe, Octavian...

Percy muttered. 'I want to drown her.' 'Be patient, water boy.' 'Don't call me water boy.

There are parties and then there are huge major blowout parties. And then there are Olympian parties. If you ever get a choice go for the Olympian.
