“There was also a rumor that later in the day, she walked fully clothed into the Amper River and said something very strange.
Something about a kiss.
Something about a Saumensch.
How many times did she have to say goodbye?”

“She glared at me like she was about to punch me, but then she did something that surprised me even more. She kissed me.
"Be careful seaweed brain." She said putting on her invisible cap and disappearing.
I probably would have sat there all day, trying to remember my name, but then the sea demons came.”

“When she packed up to leave, she knew that she was saying goodbye to something important, which was not that bad, in a way, because it meant that at least you had said hello to it to begin with…”

“I have been loved,' she said, 'by something strange, and it has forgotten me.”

“Lips. There was something strangely, delicately
indelicate about the word, like a kiss
itself.”

“Annabeth glared at me like she was going to punch me. But she did something that surprised me even more…

She kissed me.”

“She wasn't much to look at but she was something to think about.”

“She wanted something to happen - something, anything: she did not know what.”

“She was unique: there was something abnormal about her, and it was that abnormal something that made her magnetic.”

“How lucky am I to have something that makes saying goodbye so hard.”
