I'm eagerly awaiting more spoilers - honestly, I'm not nearly as invested in the new series because I'm more character oriented, so a series without Percy and Annabeth really isn't cutting it for me so far. I'm slowly coming around on Jason and Leo though. I am interested in the other Camp though, and to see how he retcons everything.

he’s promised her something permanent

...

SORRY, THAT'S JUST THE SOUND OF, UM, MY HEART BREAKING. /sob
I'm actually not okay, I freaking miss them. And also LJ. University, why you take over my life? This is amazing dear and I'm not expressing it very well but... yeah. MY HEART IS JUST BURSTING RIGHT NOW. Percy is spot on, as usual. I can so see this. ♥ *showers you with love*

Aw I'm so glad you liked. I normally ignore The Lost Hero and everything, but Percy has such a history of having prophetic dreams that it's hard to imagine he didn't know SOMETHING big was coming.

BRB, crying all the tears forever.
This is so heartbreaking, I can't even... Amazing work, as usual :)

[artemisrae]

He loves her and doesn't want her to worry, that's all! <3 I'm glad you liked.

[greenconverses]

He hasn’t because it’ll scare her, and he’s promised her something permanent.

;____; Tears forever. RSquared better give us a reunion in this book, or there will be words to be said.

SERIOUSLY, I CANNOT TAKE THE LOST HERO UNIVERSE SERIOUSLY UNTIL I GET MY PERCY AND ANNABETH REUNION.

Which is why I tend not to write in that universe lol.

[greenconverses]

THE ANNABETH ANGST CANNOT LAST MORE THAN A YEAR, SERIOUSLY RICK.

I tend to not write in it because I feel like one book's not enough to get a grasp on the characters yet? Also, the fact that everything ever will be jossed to hell within a year.

[artemisrae]

Yeah, there is also the part that I mostly skimmed through the new book except for the parts with Annabeth in it. Trufax.

Beautiful. I definitely wish we got more moment between them in this time frame as well, when things seemed calm and peaceful for them for a while. Lovely fic, thanks for sharing!

[artemisrae]

Oh, me too, more than anything. We got when they got together and then we got when they were separated and it kills me because I really wanted to see them happy for a while. Sigh. RR is trying to kill me.

Thank you for reading and taking the time!
