Annabeth was always an X. Her equation always had one solution, plain and simple.
That's why she hated linear equations. They go on infinitely, and can go in any direction, positive or negative. She never took risks, she always planned.
Then she met Percy. He was the Y to her X. She never knew which way their relationship would go. But that's how they all work isn't it? Some are doomed to go down and fail, while others move up in glory. She wished theirs was the latter.
X and Y are complete opposites, one goes sideways, and the other up. Always there to balance each other out. X moves too far in her views? Y steadies her. Y gets too bigheaded? X grounds him. Opposites attract as they say.
But you never know which solution is the true one. It could take infinity to find out. But Annabeth is gonna try. Even if it does take forever, because she's sure their relationship is positive, and they're worth it. And who knows? Maybe in the possible future, they'll have a little Z to join them.
