    Rick Riordan
    “For a long time,’ Nico said, ‘I had a crush on you. I just wanted you to know.’ Percy looked at Nico. Then at Annabeth, as if to check that he’d heard correctly. Then back at Nico.

    ‘You –’

    ‘Yeah,’ Nico said. ‘You’re a great person. But I’m over that. I’m happy for you guys.’

    ‘You … so you mean –’

    ‘Right.’

    Annabeth’s grey eyes started to sparkle. She gave Nico a sideways smile.

    ‘Wait,’ Percy said. ‘So you mean –’

    ‘Right,’ Nico said again. ‘But it’s cool. We’re cool. I mean, I see now … you’re cute, but you’re not my type.’

    ‘I’m not your type … Wait. So –’

    ‘See you around, Percy,’ Nico said.”
    Rick Riordan, The Blood of Olympus

    Monty Jay
    “Rook.” Alistair grunts, nodding his head towards his friend. Quickly, so fast I barely see it, Rook Van Doren has Easton slammed onto the table. Pens and highlighters rolling onto the floor. Those in the library watching quite as a mouse, afraid one noise will have one of these rabid dogs tearing into them next. Alistair stands to his full height, a looming shadow as he bends to speak to Easton who is fighting against Rook’s hold, his cheek smooshed into the wood. “Say her name again,” Alistair bites, “and I’ll make you swallow your fucking teeth.”
    Monty Jay, The Lies We Steal

    “It happened all the time. Maybe someone had a legitimate gripe that deserved airing. Maybe someone had a compliment that shouldn't go unspoken. No one said a thing. So long and stay in touch, that's usually all we said. Take care of yourself, good luck. We said nothing about affection, appreciation, admiration.”
    joshua ferris, Then We Came to the End

    Rick Riordan
    “You might as well ask an artist to explain his art, or ask a poet to explain his poem. It defeats the purpose. The meaning is only clear thorough the search.”
