"So we take off with no plan,""No idea where we'll go or what problems await beyond this island.Many questions, and no tidy answers?" Leo turned up his palms."That's how I fly, Sunshine.Can I get your bags?""Absolutely."Five minutes later, with Calypso's arms around his waist, Leo spurred Festus into flight.The bronze dragon spread his wings, and they soared into the unknown.” I love that the book ended with them

“She wrinkled her nose. "You smell-" "I know. Like I've been dead. Probably because I have been. Oath to keep with a final breath and all, but I'm better now" She stopped him with a kiss. …When she finally let him go, her face was covered in soot smudges. She traced her thumb across his cheekbone. "Leo Valdez," she said.”

THIS REUNION WAS SO PERFECT I COULD CRY

“"You're late," Her eyes gleamed. "Sorry, Sunshine," Leo said. "Traffic was murder." "You are covered with soot," she noted. "And you managed to ruin the clothes I made for you, which were impossible to ruin." "Well, you know." Leo shrugged. "I'm all about doing the impossible." She offered her hand and helped him up. They stood nose to nose as she studied his condition.”
my god I love them 😭😩

“They spiraled toward Ogygia,...He realized his clothes were in tatters, despite the magic they'd been woven with. His arms were covered in a fine layer of soot, like he'd just died in a massive fire which, of course, he had. But he couldn't worry about any of that. She was standing on the beach, wearing jeans and a white blouse, her amber hair pulled back.”

I KNEW IT. I FUCKING KNEW HE WAS GOING TO HIS GIRL

“His eyes started to work again, and he noticed the large hypodermic needle retracting from his forearm. The empty injector buzzed, whirred, and retreated into a panel on Festus's neck."Thanks, buddy." Leo groaned. "Man, being dead sucked. But that physician's cure? That stuff is worse."”

BLESS JESUS. THANK YOU LORD

“Chapter:LVIII

LEO

LEO WAS DEAD. He knew that with absolute certainty.”

NOOOOOOOOOO WHYY WHYYY MY POOR BABY

"Wait," Percy said. "So you mean—""Right," Nico said again. "But it's cool. Were 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. "Annabeth."She raised her hand for a high five.Nico obliged. Then he walked back across the oreen, where Will Solace was waiting.”
IM ACTUALLY FUCKING SCREAMING SCREAMING SO BAD AND LOUD

"So,"Nico said,"since we're going to be spending at least a year seeing each other at camp, I think I should clear the air." Percy's smile wavered. "What do you mean?""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,""You're a great person. But I'm over that.
🫢

“Nico studied his face-his sea green eyes, his grin, his ruffled black hair. Somehow Percy Jackson seemed like a regular guy now, not a mythical figure. Not someone to idolize or crush on.”
Will Sollace the man you are, you got him locked down

“"We're going to spend our senior year together," Annabeth explained, "here in New York. And after graduation-" “College in New Rome!" Percy pumped his fist like he was blowing a truck horn.”

CAN MY BABIES FINALLY GET PEACE AND HAPPINESS

“Will said. "I told you, no more Underworld-y stuff, doctor's orders. You now. owe me at least three days of rest in the infirmary. Starting Nico felt like a hundred skeletal butterflies were resurrecting in his stomach. "Three days? I—I suppose that would be okay." "Good. Now—"”

PLEASE OH MY GODSSSSS THEYRE SUCH CUTIESSS

“"You're so dense," Will noted. "I hope you got over that nonsense about leaving Camp Half-Blood." "I-yeah. I did. I mean, I'm staying." "Good. So you may be dense, but you're not an idiot." "How can you even talk to me like that? Don't you know I can summon zombies and skeletons and-" "Right now you couldn't summon a wishbone without melting into a puddle of darkness, di Angelo”
my bickering cuties

Why would you want a son of Hades in the same room with people you're trying to heal? Why would anyone want that?" "You can't help out a friend? Maybe cut bandages? Bring me a soda or a snack? Or just a simple How's it going, Will? You don't think I could stand to see a friendly face?" "What... my face?" The words simply didn't make sense together: Friendly face. Nico di Angelo.”
WILL SOLLACE SIR YOU ARE WHIPPED

““"So where were you?" Will demanded. He was wearing a green surgeon's shirt with jeans and flip-flops, which was probably not standard hospital protocol. "What do you mean?" Nico asked. "I've been stuck in the infirmary for, like, two days. You don't come by. You don't offer to help." "I ... what?”
Nico you’re man missed you

“"That's—that's fantastic! Dude!" Jason opened his arms for a hug, then froze. "Right. No touching. Sorry." Nico grunted. "I suppose we can make an exception." Jason squeezed him so hard Nico thought his ribs would crack.”

AWW I LOVE HIM OPENING UPPP 🥹

“"I-I guess. I don't suppose you can tell if he's still, "He's gone," Nico said. "I'm sorry. I wish I could tell you otherwise, but I sensed his death."”

I REFUSEEEEE TO BELIEVE

“He hadn't talked to Will since the battle. The Apollo kids had been too busy with the injured. Besides, Will probably blamed Nico for what happened to Octavian.By now, Will Solace realized just how creepy and revolting Nico di Angelo was. Of course, Nico didn't care what he thought. But still...”

He misses him bad 😋

“He turned, registering a face with blond hair, and for a split second he thought it was Will Solace. When Nico realized it was Jason, he was disappointed. Then he felt angry with himself for feeling that way.”

I’m crying there goes my theory that Nico had a crush on Jason 💀

“"You felt his death, didn't you?" Hazel's eyes were watery. Her voice was small. "Yeah," Nico admitted. "But I don't know, Hazel. Something about it was ... different."”

SO HE DID DIE?!?! 😭💔

“Then she did something so unexpected Nico would later think he dreamed it. She walked up to Nico, She grabbed his hand and pulled him gently into the firelight. "We had one home," she said. "Now we have two." She gave Nico a big hug. For once, Nico didn't feel like pulling away. He buried his face in Reyna's shoulder and blinked the tears out of his eyes.”

I LOVE THIS FRIENDSHIP SO MUCHHH

“At the campfire, everyone kept looking at the stars, as if they expected Leo to come back in some dramatic, last-minute surprise. Maybe he'd swoop in, jump off Festus's back, and launch into corny jokes. It didn't happen.”

THERES NO FUCKING WAYY. HE HAS TO BE ALIVE. HES GOTTA BE ON HIS WAY TO HIS GIRL HE PROMISED

“Clarisse, who had been named the baby's godmother, trailed behind the coach like a bodyguard and occasionally muttered, "All right, all right. Give the kid some space."”

I LOVE THIS HAHAHA

“Will Solace hadn't spoken with Nico since the encounter at the onager. The son of Apollo spent most of his time in the infirmary, but whenever Nico saw him running across camp to fetch more medical supplies or make a house call on some wounded demigod, he felt a strange twinge of melancholy. No doubt Will Solace thought Nico was a monster now, for letting Octavian kill himself.”
AWWW HE MISSES HIM 🥹

"Maybe he found a way," Percy said. "This is Leo were talking about. He might come back any minute. Then we can take turns strangling him." Nico and Hazel exchanged looks. They both knew better, but they said nothing.”

SO IM ACTUALLY IN DENIAL AND I FULLY REFUSE TO BELIVE HES GONE

“Piper seemed to be holding her own. The goddess Aphrodite floated around them on a small white cloud, strewing rose petals in the giantess's eyes and calling encouragement to Piper. "Lovely, my dear. Yes, good. Hit her again!"”

BAHAHHAHA SO REAL

“When this war is over, I'm leaving both camps for good." Will Solace made a sound like he'd been punched. …"Oh, please." Will sounded unusually angry. "Nobody at Camp Half-Blood ever pushed you away. You have friends or at least, people who would like to be your friend. You pushed yourself away. If you'd get your head out of that brooding cloud of yours for once"”

OH MY GODDDD THEYRE BOTH DOWN BADDDDDDD
