"Hey, Annabeth?" Percy asked, poking his head into his bedroom, where his girlfriend was sitting cross-legged on the floor, solving some papers. "Yeah?" she asked without looking up as Percy plopped himself down next to her. "How long will you be staying?" The question made her pause, before she turned, eyes roving over Percy's look. "You see this?" she said quietly, raising her hand and twirling her finger around the only gray streak of hair in Percy's raven black head of hair. Her matching grey streak glinted in the sunlight as Percy's eyes darted up to where her finger was. "I'm going to stay with you till this one turns grey," her finger moved to twirl the neighbouring obsidian lock around it, "and this one," her finger went to the next one, "and this, till all of them match this one," her finger went back to the original grey strand, the only one in his hair, "I'll stay with you till we're both old and have grey hairs and I'll stay with you beyond that too."
Percy looked touched, warmth and surprise mingling in his sea green eyes, before he muttered sheepishly, "I was kind of referring to how long you'll stay at my place, 'cause Mom's asking if you're waiting till dinner-" "Oh my gods, Percy! You could have asked that better!" "What? I just asked how long you'll be staying!" "I thought you meant-forget it." "But, wait-" "Forget it." "Wise Girl-" "Forget it before I refuse to solve your papers." "Hold on, so...you'll stay with me forever?" "...of course, Seaweed Brain."
I think we all can agree that Caleo sucks - if you don't then i respect you opinion - but oh my god(s) imagine this:
that would've been so goodddd
Both Leo can Calypso have major issues with being single. Leo is pretty insecure about it and being on the Argo II with three couples doesn't help. Calypso has lived for thousands of years and constantly keeps getting people she wants to be with but ultimately can't (tbh not sure how she's not gone insane yet because after two people rejecting me and heading off, I'd die).
Caleo as a romantic thing is probably the worst outcome out of this; its a cheap af solution that doesn't solve their underlying insecurities about romance but only exemplifies them because from their perspective, romance is where life gets perfect so they're both shit at handling any turbulence which is a normal part of love.
As friends they would've actually learned to appreciate non-romantic relationships and see the value of all types of love especially platonic love (plus it would've reduced the toxicity in their relationship). Caleo as best friends would have been great and their dynamic would have been awesome af and maybe everyone would love Calypso if she wasn't toxic and also not a 4k year old titaness getting with a teenager. I also wanna add that "friendship between divine being and mortal" is one of my favourite tropes and I would've enjoyed that a lot (Apollo doesn't count until the last two TOA books imo).
thank you for coming to my ted talk
-I say, loading my heavy crossbow with poison-glazed bolts. There is a fierce look in my eyes not seen since the time of the witch-burning catholic church.
