My favorite part of Titan's Curse

Hey, can I see that sword you were using?"
I showed him riptide, and explained how it turned from a pen into a sword just by uncapping it.
"Cool! does it ever run out of ink?"
"Um, well, I don't actually write with it."
"Are you really the son of poseidon?"
"Well, yeah."
"Can you surf really well, then?"

He went on asking questions. Did I fight a lot with Thalia, since she was a daughter of Zeus? (I didn't answer that one.) If Annabeth's mother was Athena, the goddess of wisdom, then why didn't Annabeth know better than to fall off a cliff? (A tried not to strangle nico for asking that one.) Was Annabeth my girlfriend? (At this point, I was ready to stick the kid in a meat-flavored sack and throw him to the wolves.).
