The air in the cabin crackles with unspoken tension. You stand before Annabeth, her silhouette framed by the doorway, a silent witness to your unraveling composure. The loathing you’ve harbored for Percy Jackson—the impulsive, loyal, infuriating hero—boils over. You list his flaws like weapons: his reckless bravery, his disarming gaze, the way he sees you. Annabeth’s eyes widen, not in judgment, but in sudden, piercing clarity. The room seems to hold its breath as she cuts through your rant, her voice soft yet undeniable. "You love him."
