A/N I happen to like Percy as a character (I seem to like all the underdogs.)
Truth be told, one of my biggest regrets for the series is that many of the characters back stories are not explained. What made them that way are never explained.
Please do review, I do appreciate for critic. It does help with the writing.
Here as yours truly
