Jason Grace hated being a Prince. It wasn't as bad when his sister Thalia had been first in line to the throne, and all he had to worry about was being a daddy's boy. But then she ran away. Without him. She had left him to run an entire country on his own after their father died. Luckily, his father hadn't died yet. Or rather, unluckily. The old coot wouldn't shut up about how "Jason, my boy, you need to be prepared to run our kingdom" and "Jason, really, you need to hurry up and pick a wife".
You see, Jason hadn't told his father the truth. Or at least the entirety of it. He had told his father that he didn't like any of the girls that were presented to him to "try out". What he hadn't told his dear father, however, was the fact that he did not, in all honesty, swing remotely anywhere near any type of woman. Prince Jason Jupiter Grace was gay.

As he stared out into the ocean, he caught glimpse of a ship coming into dock. How he longed for the freedom of a ship hand's life. The open ocean, the salty breeze ruffling his blond hair and nothing to contain him but blue waves.
Without warning, he jumped off the pedestal that the tailor had made him stand on, despite the said tailor squawking in annoyance. Jason laughed and called out "You already have my measurements, just use my last jacket as a base!" as he ran down the hall to the servants quarters. He had to talk to two particular servant boys...
