    Rick Riordan
    “He also didn't mind Piper's using him for a pillow. She had a cute way of breathing when she slept - inhaling through the nose, exhaling with a little puff through the mouth. He was also disappointed when she woke up.”

    Rick Riordan
    “Jason took me by the shoulders—not out of anger, or in a clinging way, but as a brother. “Promise me one thing. Whatever happens, when you get back to Olympus, when you’re a god again, remember. Remember what it’s like to be human.”
    A few weeks ago, I would have scoffed. Why would I want to remember any of this?
    At best, if I were lucky enough to reclaim my divine throne, I would recall this wretched experience like a scary B-movie that had finally ended. I would walk out of the cinema into the sunlight, thinking Phew! Glad that’s over.
    Now, however, I had some inkling of what Jason meant. I had learned a lot about human frailty and human strength. I felt…different toward mortals, having been one of them. If nothing else, it would provide me with some excellent inspiration for new song lyrics!”

    “Like me, he had decided that Piper McLean would not die tonight. For some reason, he had decided that I must live too. He yelled again, 'GO! Remember!' (...)
    While Jason's back was turned, Caligula wheeled about. He threw his spear, driving its point between Jason's shoulder blades. Piper screamed. Jason stiffened, his blue eyes wide in shock.”

    Rick Riordan
    “Percy pulled Annabeth close and kissed her...long enough for it to get really awkward for Piper, though she said nothing. She thought about the old rule of Aphrodite's cabin: that to be recognized as a daughter of the love goddess, you had to break someone's heart. Piper had long ago decided to change that rule. Percy and Annabeth were a perfect example of why. You should have to make someone`s heart whole; that was a much better test.”
    Rick Riordan, The Blood of Olympus

    “Piper and Hazel were ready to go, but first Annabeth turned to Percy, who was leaning on the starboard rail, gazing over the bay.
    Annabeth took his hand. “What are you going to do while we’re gone?”
    “Jump in the harbor,” he said casually, like another kid might say, I’m going to get a snack.”
    Rick Riordan, The Mark of Athena

    “I don't deserve you."
    "You're not allowed to say that."
    "Why not?"
    "It's a breakup line. Unless you're breaking up-"
    Jason leaned over and kissed her. The colors of the Roman afternoon suddenly seemed sharper, as it the world had switched to high definition.
    "No breakups," he promised. "I may have busted my head a few times, but I'm not that stupid.”
    Rick Riordan, The Mark of Athena

    “Fear can’t be reasoned with. Neither can hate. They’re like love. They’re almost identical emotions. That’s why Ares and Aphrodite like each other. Their twin sons – Fear and Panic – were spawned from both war and love.”

    Rick Riordan
    “She was probably my age, maybe a couple of inches taller, and a whole lot more athletic looking. With her deep tan and her curly blond hair, she was almost exactly what I thought a stereotypical California girl would look like, except her eyes ruined the image. They were startling gray,like storm clouds; pretty, but intimidating, too, as if she were analyzing the best way to take me down in a fight.
    She glanced at the minotaur horn in my hand, then back at me. I imagined she was going to say, You killed a Minotaur! or Wow you're so awesome! or something like that.
    Instead she said, "you drool when you sleep."
    Then she sprinted off down the lawn, her blond hair flying behind her.”
    Rick Riordan, The Lightning Thief

    “If you ever leave me again,’ she said, her eyes stinging, ‘I swear to all the gods-‘
    Percy had the nerve to laugh. Suddenly the lump of heated emotions melted inside Annabeth.
    ‘Consider me warned,’ Percy said. ‘I missed you, too.”
    rick riordan, The Mark of Athena
