    “Let us find the dam snack bar," Zoe said. "We should eat while we can."
    Grover cracked a smile. "The dam snack bar?"
    Zoe blinked. "Yes. What is funny?"
    "Nothing," Grover said, trying to keep a straight face. "I could use some dam french fries."
    Even Thalia smiled at that. "And I need to use the dam restroom."
    ...
    I started cracking up, and Thalia and Grover joined in, while Zoe just looked at me. "I do not understand."
    "I want to use the dam water fountain," Grover said.
    "And..." Thalia tried to catch her breath. "I want to buy a dam t-shirt.”

    “Hades raised an eyebrow. When he sat forward in his throne, shadowy faces appeared in the folds of his black robes, faces of torment,as if the garment was stitched of trapped souls from the Fields of Punishment, trying to get out. The ADHD part of me wondered, off-task, whether the rest of his clothes were made the same way. What horrible things would you have to do in your life to get woven into Hades' underwear?”

    “Dance you guys!" Thalia ordered. "You look stupid just standing there."

    "Oh. Oh right.”

    “Can you surf really well, then?"
    I looked at Grover, who was trying hard not to laugh.
    "Jeez, Nico," I said. "I've never really tried."
    He went on asking questions. Did I fight a lot with Thalia, since she was a daughter of Zeus? (I didn't answer that one.) If Annabeth's mother was Athena, the goddess of wisdom, then why didn't Annabeth know better than to fall off a cliff? (I tried not to strangle Nico for asking that one.) Was Annabeth my girlfriend? (At this point, I was ready to stick the kid in a meat-flavored sack and throw him to the wolves.)”

    “There!" Mars finished writing and threw the scroll at Octavian. "A prophecy. You can add it to your books, engrave it on the floor, whatever."
    Octavian read the scroll. "This says, 'Go to Alaska. Find Thanatos and free him. Come back by sundown on June twenty-fourth or die'."
    "Yes," Mars said. "Is that not clear?"
    "Well, my lord...usually prophecies are unclear. They're wrapped in riddles. They rhyme, and..."
    Mars casually popped another grenade off his belt. "Yes?"
    "The prophecy is clear!" Octavian announced. "A quest!”

    “Now, come over here so I can pat you down."
    "But you don't have-" Percy stopped. "Uh, sure."
    He stood next to the armless statue. Terminus conducted a rigorous mental pat down.
    "You seem to be clean," Terminus decided. "Do you have anything to declare?"
    "Yes," Percy said. "I declare that this is stupid.”

    “Hey!" said the guy in the video. "Greetings from your friends at Camp Half-Blood, et cetera. This is Leo. I'm the..." He looked off screen and yelled: "What's my title? Am I like admiral, or captain, or-"

    A girl's voice yelled back, "Repair boy."

    "Very funny, Piper," Leo grumbled. He turned back to the parchment screen. "So yeah, I'm...ah..supreme commander of the Argo II. Yeah, I like that! Anyway, we're gonna be sailing towards you in about, I dunno, an hour in this big mother warship. We'd appreciate it if you'd not, like, blow us out of the sky or anything. So okay! If you could tell the Romans that. See you soon. Yours in demigodishness, and all that. Peace out!”

    Hazel tried not to laugh. "What did he say?"
    "With the cussing removed? He said he can get us to the top."
    Frank looked incredulous. "I thought the horse couldn't fly!"
    This time Arion whinnied so angrily, even Hazel could guess he was cursing.
    "Dude," Percy told the horse, "I've gotten suspended for saying less than that...”

    “That's because we keep weapons in the attic, silly boy. Do you think this is the first time monsters have attacked our family?"
    "Weapons," Frank grumbled. "Right. I've never handled weapons before."
    Grandmother's nostrils flared. "Was that sarcasm, Fai Zhang?"
    "Yes, Grandmother."
    "Good. There may be hope for you yet.”

    “Just his luck he was related to this grubby old dude. He hoped all sons of Neptune didn't share the same fate. First, you start carrying a man satchel. Next thing you know, you're running around in a bathrobe and pink bunny slippers, chasing chickens with a weed whacker.”
