Let's say gods have given me gifts and none of them are age appropriate. Like Riptide is that a twelve year appropriate 'gift'?

So I was ready to see these ' gifts'. Maybe I will something get something cool, something I don't know I want.

" open your eyes " Zeus says .

Before I open them I felt... different, lighter like I was standing on clouds. I open my eyes ready to get this over and done with.

I open my eyes looking around at all of the people have changed. I noticed Leo has a bronze arm and different armor I needed to closely to see where it ended and the other part began.
And beside me Thalia is glowing like a goddass with a rather large golden bow.
Nico is the coolest he has black wings which shifted like they were made of smoke.

Now I am kinda jealous... I want some wings... maybe I would race blackjack. I look at my hand is a new shield... like the one Tyson made me but lighter and with a lot of coverage.
And my dark cloths were covered with grayish armor. I sigh wondering why they didn't given us this ... Before.
I gasp seeing my shadow on the floor... I, Perseus Jackson , have WINGS!!

I turned to look at them but it turned to a dog-chasing-its-tail scenario. I decided to stop, after a few turns - four turns- but people were laughing lightly. I look at the gods who look slightly amused.

" so does this mean I can use the air?" I say sheepishly. I probably sound idiotic but once Zeus once threatened me -subtly - not to use his domain.

" yes." He says seating on his throne. " we thank you for all you have done for the gods. Even we lost many Saviors of Olympus "

Everyone nodded sadly. I stood mutely in the corner of my eye I saw Artemis look at me sadly and Apollo looks at his sister and back at me. Hestia is back tending the fire.

" now let's get  partying ..."

Please guess who said that?

If you said Apollo you are wrong.

It is Dionysus and everyone had a glass of wine. And I realised that my new gear which I haven't inspected yet has disappeared I pretty sure I wasn't wearing the bracelet on my left wrist. I never wear bracelets or the rings and necklaces I am seeing now.

I looked at the wine and back at Dionysus who had a glass of wine and is sniffing it.

But Zeus shot him a glare and said " you are still banned..."

" but... " Dionysus started but sighed and changed his wine to be coke. Along with my glass

Zeus clears his throat and raised his cup. " to the savior of Olympus "

I just looked at my can while people repeated " To the Saviors of Olympus !"

I barely even noticed Athena looking at me sadly. She lost a daughter...
