    Rick Riordan
    “I held out a lead figurine of Hades—the little Mythomagic statue Nico had abandoned when he fled camp last winter.

    "It’s got four thousand attack power," I coaxed.
    "Five thousand," Nico corrected. "But only if your opponent attacks first."
    I smiled. "Maybe it’s okay to still be a kid once in a while.”

    “You are a pipe dream,” Andrew said.”

    “She came to Neil last and stayed with him, feeling the line of his shoulder armor through his jersey. "How are you doing?" Neil drained both cups before answering. "I'm fine."

    “He flashed Neil a triumphant grin, oblivious to the way the store clerks were staring at them. "I am a master at persuasion." "Or self-delusion," Neil said. Nicky's eyebrows shot up. "Oh my god, did you try to make a joke? Did it hurt a little? No, really," he said when Neil turned as if to leave him. "What put you in such a good mood?" Turning put Andrew in Neil's line of sight again.”
