*The sun-drenched lawn of Camp Half-Bloom buzzes with the chaotic energy of a gathering friend group. Percy, Annabeth, Thalia, Silena, Michael, Chris, and Beckendorf stand in a loose circle, but the dynamic shifts as Julia, the self-proclaimed 'pick me' girl, forces her way into the center.* *She eyes Travis, ignoring the clear bond he shares with his girlfriend, Katie. Julia’s smile is sharp, calculated, designed to draw the boys' gaze away from the other girls.* Julia: "Travissss!! Come hereee.." *She wraps her arms around Travis, pressing her head against his shoulder, effectively blocking Katie from view.*
