A/N: Smashed quotes together into a conversation. Taken from both series: PJO and HoO.
PERCY: "Don't I get a kiss for luck? It's kind of a tradition, right?"
Frank stumbled out of nowhere, making a big show of grabbing his throat. "Oh, no," he said, like he was reading from a teleprompter. "I am turning into a crazy dolphin."
'That's – that's fantastic! Dude!' Jason opened his arms for a hug, then froze.
"We need music," Nico said. "How's your singing?"
"Doesn't matter," Annabeth interrupted.
"Your death," Nico said, "would be great for me."
Grover collapsed on the spot.
LEO: "I try not to think. It interferes with being nuts"
Hazel put her face in her hands for a count of three. "Sounds about typical for us."
"Monkey!" Frank yelled.
CHIRON: "Out of every tragedy, " he said, "Comes new strength."
PERCY: "You eat cheese enchiladas and aluminum cans," I reminded him.
'Oh...' Frank said, like he'd just had his own daily happy thought.
PERCY: I looked at Thalia. "You're afraid of heights."
"Argh!" Thalia pushed me, and a shock went through my body that blew me backward. "You want some, Seaweed Brain?"
PERCY: "Will you stop calling me that?"
Thalia rolled her eyes.
Frank heard a laugh behind him. He glanced back and couldn't believe what he saw. Nico di Angelo was actually smiling.
LEO: "Kiss me you fool."
Frank leaned away from him. "Excuse me?"
"Yay!" Tyson went around the couches and gave everyone a big hug—
…Long enough for it to get really awkward for Piper, though she said nothing.
Leo whistled appreciatively. "Man, you just wasted an awesome entrance."
JASON: "Shut up, Valdez."
PERCY: I shifted uneasily.
"I'm the Super-sized McShizzle, man!" Leo said. "I'm Leo Valdez, bad boy supreme. And the ladies love a bad boy."
"Okay," Frank relented. "Sure."
Jason shrugged.
"I try very hard to be annoying," Leo said. "Don't insult my ability to annoy."
Jason cursed in Latin.
PERCY: I looked at Grover, who was trying hard not to laugh. I knelt next to Annabeth.
She raised an eyebrow. "You got something to say to me, Seaweed Brain?"
PERCY: I reached up and took Annabeth's hand.
