I think it's just a phobia, not something she can control or fight. I can tell you I'm scared of heights too, and it doesn't matter if i'm safe or not, I always panic when i'm on a high place.I think Rick made her like that mostly for the irony...
Yeah, I agree. There's no "reason" per say, it is just a phobia, a fear of hers. I agree that Riordan may have put it there for the irony; it would be like a son of Poseidon being afraid of water.
Yeah, I'm so scared of heights escalators would make me cry and I never had a reason. XD I'd love to see a Demeter kid that hates the outdoors!
I know. I love Rick's ironic characters though. Although, I admittedly like Thalia a lot better than Piper.
Finally?! Did you cry at the ending?! Did you totally get Percabeth feels?! What was your favorite part? Sorry, I'm overly enthusiastic but I just fangirl any time I hear any thing about MoA.
Haha, I knew beforehand what was going to happen so I didn't really cry but I was just really depressed... for weeks. And you're so right! PJO is a way of life!!

What? Sorry if I've forgotten anything, but I don't think Thalia thought that she saw Jason die....didn't her mom just leave him somewhere in a park?
Yeah, that's what I thought...their mom left Jason at the park cuz she gave him to Hera.
as i remember it, thalia her mom and jason went to the park and thalia was getting stuff and then her mom came back and said jason fell off a cliff

One if these days I'm going to get the entire series and reread the books from The Lightning Thief to The Mark of Athena. I sometimes do that before each new book in the series comes out.

HP is my comfort food series. You know, if I watch a depressing movie or show, I go read HP.
