But when Nico first heard fartura he knew Percy woukd have made a joke out of the name.
America has dough-nuts, Percy would have said. Portugal has fart-nuts

I can totally imagine Percy saying that!

"This is Barrachina", Reyna said
"What kind of bear?"

Percy: Chinese bear, coach. That is so simple!

Me: *facepalms*

The parrots roosted on the shoulders of Athena Parthenos. Reyna wondered whether the Greeks would be offended if their sacred statue arrived covered in tropical bird poop

XD XD XD

She tried to place it under Nico's head as a makeshift pillow, but her fingers passed right through his as if he were a shadow

I was like What In Tartarus! and I swear I stared at the book for a full minute

On the floor, Reyna's hostage began to shake. Reyna thought she might be having a fit. Then she realised the girl was laughing.
"Something funny?" Reyna asked
The girl's vpice was a gravelly whisper
"Jason told me you were good. He didn't say how good"

Reyna was kickass awesome and I was so glad that Thalia was in the picture!

Reyna had always thought of Jason Grace as the all-American boy. Thalia looked more like the girl who had robbed all-American boys at knifepoint in an alley

Lol. Pretty apt description. Go Thals!

'Hey,kid', said Coach Hedge, his tone softer. 'We all get angry. Even a sweetheart like me'

*snorts* Yeah coach, you're a total sweetheart!

Nico sheathed his black sword.
'You sure about this, Reyna? I don't like leaving you alone.'
Blackjack whinnied and licked the side of Nico's face.
'Gah! Okay, I'm sorry.' Nico wiped off the horse spit.
'Reyna's not alone. She's got a herd of excellent pegasi'

Me: *grins* Someone's got an attitude

Blackjack: *neighs*

Me: Yeah. Everyone knows of your greatness

Blackjack: *neighs* Three covers so far and still flawless ;)

This was most of the Nico, Reyna and Coach Hedge part.
