So I just posted a review on your FF.net account, but I'll do it on here as well because I LOVED THIS SO MUCH. Angsty with a little bit of cute moments in between? Perfect birthday present.

I think what I love about your fics is that you manage to really capture them as characters and get inside their heads. Their reactions and conversations are believable, and I could never imagine there not being a little part of Annabeth that felt extremely guilty for not stopping Percy from falling along with her, so bravo. Of course, there was also a bit of anger inside of Percy that revealed itself when he found out she lied about him dying, which was also believable.

(I feel like Percy knew what he was about to put himself through when he refused to let go of Annabeth in the books, but really didn't. Does that make sense? Nico was pretty shaken up from his time, so I can't imagine the torture Percabeth will have to face)

I'm sort of a sucker for those scenes where a character has a nightmare and it shows that their boyfriend/girlfriend is already right beside them and just knows. The part with Percy's apology and her explanation of his death just.. asjfkejflwf. Not even death can separate them.
