AN: Ah, the PJO fandom. Long time, no see. I am in the midst of my PJO-HOO re-read, and I thought this would be a nice way to test out the waters. Expect to see more from me, but for now, enjoy!

Dear Annabeth,
I can't find where I put my drachmas so I can't IM right now. Mom said I should write a letter. I've never written a letter before, so it took awhile to learn how to address it and everything. I think they tried to teach us how in school, but I never really listen.
It's kinda hard to get into the swing of school again after everything this summer but even with all the monsters and stuff, I think things have gotten better. Having Gabe gone definitely helps. No monsters yet. My new school, Merriweather Prep, is pretty cool too and I'm trying my best not to get kicked out this time. Met a guy named Tyson. He's a good guy, but he's a bit of a softie.
I hope things are going well with your dad. It took guts to try things again with him, I wanted you to know that. And I'm still holding you to your promise about hunting down Luke when camp starts up again.
If you IM Grover, tell him I say hi. If either of you find yourselves in New York, I'm always a doorbell away. Oh, and mom says hi.
Best Wishes,
Percy
Lil' Percy sent the letter after three re-reads and one editing session with Sally. He knew that if there were any mistakes, Annabeth would send the letter back with underlines and footnotes, like an essay after his English teacher had corrected it. He sent it Monday morning. He checked the mailbox first thing Tuesday morning. Nothing. He looked again Wednesday. Nothing. He risked a peek on Thursday. Nothing. He'd almost convinced himself that the letter had gotten lost and to re-write the thing again, when a letter signed Annabeth Chase arrived on Friday morning.
