    Rick Riordan
    “Leo smiled nervously. Maybe he and Percy did share something else – a stupid sense of humour.
    ‘Yeah, I bet that would totally be against her sponsorship deal. THOSE ARE NOT THE OFFICIAL SHOES OF THE OLYMPICS! YOU WILL DIE NOW!’
    Hazel rolled her eyes. ‘You’re both impossible.’
    Behind Leo, a thunderous voice shook the ruins: ‘YOU WILL DIE NOW!”

    “All right, cupcakes. You are about to see the Grand Canyon. Try not to break it. The skywalk can hold the weight of seventy jumbo jets, to you featherweights should be safe out there. If possible, try to avoid pushing each other over the edge, as that would cause me extra paperwork.”
    Rick Riordan, The Lost Hero

    “I've got a few ideas," (Amy) admitted. "But I don't know where we're going in the long term. I mean - have you ever thought about what this ultimate treasure could be?"
    "Something cool." (Dan)
    "Oh, that's real helpful. I mean, what could make somebody the most powerful Cahill in history? And why thirty-nine clues?"
    Dan shrugged. "Thirty-nine is a sweet number. It's thirteen times three. It's also the sum of five prime numbers in a row - 3,5,7,11,13. And if you add the first three powers of three, 3 to the first, 3 to the second, and s to the third, you get thirty-nine."
    Amy stared at him. "How did you know that?"
    "What do you mean? It's obvious.”

    “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.”

    “Why can't you place a blessing like that on us?" I asked.

    "It only works on wild animals."

    “Afterward, I had the last laugh. I made an air bubble at the bottom of the lake. Our friends kept waiting for us to come up, but hey-when you are the son of Poseidon, you don't have to hurry. And it was pretty much the best underwater kiss of all time.”

    “Once she was gone, I knelt next to Annabeth and felt her forehead. She was still burning up.
    "You're cute when you're worried," she muttered. "Your eyebrows get all scrunched together."
    "You are not going to die while I owe you a favor," I said. "Why did you take that knife?"
    "You would've done the same for me."
    It was true. I guess we both knew it. Still, I felt like somebody was poking my heart with a cold metal rod.”
    Rick Riordan, The Last Olympian

    “Very slowly using two fingers, Annabeth drew her dagger. Instead of dropping it, she tossed it as far as she could into the water.

    Octavian made a squeaking sound. "What was that for? I didn't say toss it! That could've been evidence. Or spoils of war!"

    Annabeth tried for a dumb-blonde smile, like: Oh, silly me. Nobody who knew her would have been fooled. But Octavian seemed to buy it. He huffed in exasperation.

    "You other two..." He pointed his blade a Hazel and Piper. "Put your weapons on the dock. No funny bus--"

    All around the Romans, Charleston Harbor erupted like a Las Vegas fountain putting on a show. When the wall of seawater subsided, the three Romans were in the bay, spluttering and frantically trying to stay afloat in their armor. Percy stood on the dock, holding Annabeth's dagger.

    "You dropped this," he said, totally poker-faced.”

    “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.”
    Rick Riordan, The Son of Neptune

    “Like water leaking through a dam," said Piper.
    "Yeah," smiled Percy. "We've got a dam hole."
    "What?" Piper asked.
    "Nothing," he said. "Inside joke.”

    “I don't recommend shadow travel if you're scared of:
    a) The dark
    b) Cold shivers up your spine
    c) Strange noises
    d) Going so fast you feel like your face is peeling off
    In other words, I thought it was awesome.”

    “Monkey bar," Annabeth said. "I'm great at these." She leaped onto to the first rung and start swinging her way across. She was scared of tiny spiders, but not of plummeting to her death from a set of monkey bars. Go figure.”

    “My mother made a squeaking sound that might of been either "yes" or "help".
    Poseidon took it as a yes and came in.
    Paul was looking back and forth between us, trying to read our expressions.
    Finally he stepped forward.
    "Hi, I'm Paul Blofis."
    Poseidon raised an eyebrow and then shook his hand.
    "Blowfish, did you say?"
    "Ah, no. Blofis, actually."
    "Oh, I see," Poseidon said. "A shame. I quite like blowfish. I am Poseidon."
    "Poseidon? That's an interesting name."
    "Yes, I like it. I've gone by other names, but I do prefer Poseidon."
    "Like the god of the sea."
    "Very much like that, yes"
    "Well!" My mother interrupted. "Um, were so glad you could drop by. Paul, this is Percy's father."
    "Ah." Paul nodded, though he didn't look real pleased. "I see."
    Poseidon smiled at me. "There you are, my boy. And Tyson, hello, son!"
    "Daddy!" Tyson [shouted]...
    Paul's jaw dropped. He stared at my mother. "Tyson is..."
    "Not mine," she promised. "It's a long story.”

    “Dance you guys!" Thalia ordered. "You look stupid just standing there."
    I looked nervously at Annabeth, then at the groups of girls who were roaming the gym.
    "Well?" Annabeth asked.
    "Um, who should I ask?"
    She punched me in the gut. "Me, Seaweed Brain."
    "Oh. Oh right.”

    “I have lightning and wind powers," Jason reminded him. "Piper can turn beautiful and charm people into giving her BMWs. You're no more a freak than we are. And, hey, maybe you can fly, too. Like jump off a building and yell 'Flame on!'"
    Leo snorted. "If I did that, you would see a flaming kid falling to his death, and I would be yelling something a little stronger than 'Flame on!”

    “The throne rumbled. A wave of gale-force anger slammed into me.
    WHO DARES-
    The voice stopped abruptly, The anger retreated, which was a good thing, because just those two words had almost blasted my mind to shreds.
    Percy. My fathers voice was still angry but more controlled. What-exactly-are you doing on my throne?
    "I'm sorry, Father," I said. "I needed to get your attention."
    This was a very dangerous thing to do. Even for you. If I hadn't looked before I blasted, you would now be a puddle of seawater.

    “I'm the son of Jupiter, I'm a child of Rome, consul to demigods, praetor of the First Legion. I slew the Trojan sea monster, I toppled the black throne of Kronos, and destroyed Titan Krios with my own hand. And now I'm going to destroy you Porphyrion, and feed you to your own wolves."

    “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!”

    “Hey, can I see that sword you were using?"
    I showed him Riptide, and explained how it turned from a pen into a sword just by uncapping it.
    "Cool! Does it ever run out of ink?"
    "Um, well, I don't actually write with it."
    "Are you really the son of Poseidon?"
    "Well, yeah."
    "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.)”
