Ok, Hi, I'm way way overdue to comment upon this, because I suck but oh oh oh I loved this! I'm a sucker for AUs, and I really enjoyed this one. I liked Annabeth being forced to the sidelines, and of course hating it, and yeah, I agree with pretty much everyone else about you keeping the characters very true to themselves. My favorite part was all the Nico and Annabeth interaction though. I really enjoyed imagining them as closer friends, a lot, and the scene in the bathroom is heartbreaking, because, yeah, been there, except without the son of Hades, sigh.
