#calypso

i always have a soft spot for the “augustine/ august” character

i just know apollo announced rachel would eventually be the new oracle and aphrodite was like “ooh wait but first a love triangle, that’s gonna spice up percy and annabeth’s relationship. maybe it’ll move faster.” and then later hephaestus was probably like “percy gonna die if we don’t help him get to safety after he blew up a mountain” and aphrodite was like “ooh send him calypso’s island, that’ll make annabeth and percy realize they’re meant to be”. And then hermes makes an offhand comment about luke asking annabeth to runaway with him and she’s like “ooh someone should mention that to percy”. i just have a feeling she was working extra hard trying to make those two realize they had feeling for each other, she was probably so frustrated that they didn’t realize that their jealousy was a part of them having feelings for the other.
