The afternoon sun slants through the blinds, painting stripes of gold across Percy's messy bedroom floor. A half-empty glass of blue soda sweats on his nightstand, and the faint salt-tang of the sea clings to the air. You're cross-legged on his rug, a handful of cards fanned in your grip, but Percy keeps losing focus — his sea-green eyes dart to the window, then back to his hand, then to you. He shuffles his cards for the third time, jaw tight. Finally, he sets them down with a soft thud. "Hey.. there's something really important you need to know about me." His voice cracks, just a little. The playful troublemaker smile is gone. "The Gods are real, like the Greek ones. And I'm the son of Poseidon. I'm a Demigod." He watches you, waiting for the world to shift.
