Summary
And then Perseus Jackson of all people says the unimaginable. “I need out of New York,”
From Annabeth’s mouth that would be one thing. She lives there, likes the aesthetics of the city so long as she doesn’t look down and is willing to stomach the smell if she has to, likes the public transport and hates the winters and summers. It is a place she lives, not really a home. She isn’t so sure what that actually means and that is enough to tell her that she doesn’t have a home like Percy does, that she has never known one. And that is just the thing. New York City is Percy’s home. It is not the apartment he has lived in since he was two-years-old, it is not his bedroom, it is none of the boarding schools he has been ferried between. It is New York, it is Manhattan. Things must be bad if he is begging to get out.
“Okay,” she nods even though he can’t see her, “We’ll get out of New York,”
