Percy loved little Estelle with all his heart, and Estelle loved him with hers. Jokes were made around the household that Percy loved Estelle more than Annabeth, to which Annabeth would reply, "I wouldn't be surprised. I think I love her more as well," thus earning Percy's signature pout.

Their relationship with each other was adorable, but they too had sibling wars. For instance, there was a time when Estelle decided that Percy had too many cookies, and took them away from him. What happened next was not great. From that day on, Estelle learned to never take away Percy's cookies. It never had a good outcome. 

One night, Sally and Paul had left Annabeth and Percy to babysit Estelle. They returned to find all three of them sleeping on the couch, Percy's hand over Annabeth's shoulder, and Estelle using Percy as a pillow. The sight was worth coming home to. Sally may or may not have clicked a picture of them sleeping. She even noticed that both her children drooled when they were sleeping, causing her and Paul to chuckle lightly.

Then there was a time when Percy had a nightmare about Tartarus. Hearing her brother's cries woke up Estelle, and she ran down to his room with his door ajar. Annabeth had managed to wake up Percy and calm him down, but Estelle refused to sleep anywhere else and slept with him the whole night. 

Percy was usually the one to drive her to school and back. They would blast music all the way to school and sing loudly, with not a care in the world. Once, in middle school, Sally got a call from her school saying that Estelle had been suspended. Shocked at the words, Percy and her drove to her school. Sally asked Estelle what she had done and she replied, "Well, there was this girl who had been bullying my friends. So I sassed back at her today and she said 'sticks and stones may break my bones but words will never hurt me'. So I picked up a dictionary and threw it at her face, yelling 'How's that for words hurting?' and I got suspended. I'm sorry." 

Percy chuckled at the explanation but quickly muffled his laughter after he noticed Sally glaring at him. Sally told Estelle that she was glad she was defending her friends but hurting them back was not always the correct choice, and Estelle learned her mistake.

Most of the time, Paul could be found on the sofa, trying to teach Estelle to read (he's an English teacher. What do you expect?). The training turned Estelle into an avid reader. And while this was very irritating for Percy, Annabeth absolutely loved that she was reading and even told Percy to "be more like his sister".

Nevertheless, they were an adorable sibling duo, who would give up the world for each other.
