Relieving Memories

Grover the Pantless

...Because they're Uncomfortable
---
Confession ...bus terminal.

"Percy!" Annabeth chided. "I expect this from Kiara, but you?"

"OI!" Kiara objected instantly.

Annabeth leveled her with a calm expression.

"Do you want to be scolded too?"

The small ravenette fell silent and Percy shot his sister an offended look for leaving him to be told off alone.

I know, I know. It was rude.

"It really was..." Athena agreed. Then again, what should she expect from Poseidon's kids? They almost never had anything resembling manners.

But Grover was...grade?"

"Creep alert," Apollo announced. "Call 911."

"That's why we ditched him." Kiara provided.

Kiara was a little off about Grover's reaction too. She cast him suspicious looks the whole ride while shuffling.

" I saw way too many news reports aboUt kids getting kidnapped by people that pretended to be their friends and family. Goat boy was giving off some bad vibes." Kiara put in.

"Valid reasoning." Thalia nodded.

Whenever he got ... restroom.

"Always know your chaperone's tics." Nico grinned.

"Just in case you need to ditch them." Thalia nodded in agreement before continuing to read.

Instead of ... I told the driver.

"Don't live there anymore," Percy informed the mischievously grinning Hermes. The god of travel deflated instantly with dejection as his prank instantly unraveled.

Kiara gave a quiet sigh of relief- she didn't need to be on prank guard at their apartment.

A word ... world,

"The very best." Annabeth nodded.

"She's a blessing to this world." Nico agreed.

"The one good thing to happen to this world." Thalia chimed in solemnly.

Percy and Kiara merely grinned like a loon with pleasure on their faces thinking about their mother.

which ...rottenest luck.

"That applies to you Perce," Nico told him.

Percy frowned a little and shook his head slightly.

Her own ...was five,

Zeus was glared at.

"Not every plane crash is my fault!" he protested. "Sometimes it's just a tragedy!"

and she...no family, and no diploma.

"Is she still working towards the diploma?" Athena asked.

"No, she's working on writing her book now," Kiara explained.

Athena smiled.

"I'll assist her then. Just because she had a temporary lapse in judgment with the barnacle beard, doesn't mean she deserved everything that happened to her."

"...So passive-aggressive." Kiara frowned.

"I feel insulted," Percy grumbled. "We're a lapse in judgment?"

"Chase, yoU're mUm's being mean to Us." the daughter of Poseidon complained.

"What do you want me to do about it?" The blonde asked with a raised eyebrow.
