Awww. That was so... amazing. It was poetic, in a way. I didn't understand sometimes, and the people behind the first five doors could actually be taken as each other, and the only one I really know is number 4. Wanna help? =))

Anyway, this was great. I love the way you view Percy's past relationships and the way you put a name to it with just one sentence. I love how Nico is just... different. How he's the one who didn't have a door, but made one. How Percy didn't find him, but how Nico... followed him. It just meant so much. The way you portray Percy's life--Nico's life--is amazing.

I love how when Percy met Nico, the aren't any more doors to choose from, because the door where he came in is locked, but he doesn't really care because he's with Nico. I loved this. :)

:))) nope, you have to figure it out. give you a hint - they are generally in chronological order!

thank you and i'm glad you liked it, though! :D

Oh my gods, this is amazing. I love it when you do introspection. It just comes out so so so amazing.

This was really fantastic- I love the format, and the way the writing feels. Lovely.

This is such a masterpiece. I love how you play off of the concept of need and how it factors into each relationship and decision, like you mentioned with Percy/Annabeth and how she doesn't really need him. I love how this turned out and the feeling of it.

And it's instilled in me a determination to figure out who each door is because some of them are tripping me up. :P

Close, but not quite. There's just one pair that's switched around.
