[Mark of Athena]
"I've met two people who are in love with you. One in denial, and another whose heart is already yours. So why are you pushing away love as if you cannot have it?"
"I can't. I'm losing myself to my fatal flaw each passing day. And I fully accept my downfall if it means only I fall on my sword."
"What fatal flaw or mortal point asks you to reject and not want love?"
"Percy, I want to love. But I defied my fate once and put two loved ones first. Where are they now? The two people who have witnessed everything, and who my heart has chosen to confide to, are dead and soon I will be as well. Is ephemeral worth it?"
"To those who love you, yes. But to those who deserve you, they'll try and fight for what you want. If that is for something far more permanent, they'll do everything. And they'll continue searching for a way even when you are nearly on death's door."

The Prophecy of the Seven
Seven half-bloods shall answer the call.
To storm or fire the world must fall.
An oath to keep with a final breath
And foes bear arms to the Doors of Death.
