reyna and nico's relationship is amazing. especially that campfire scene where they hug. ALSO the part where nico tells percy about his previous crush. percy's reaction is peak comedy. also will and nico. I'M SO HAPPY FOR NICO he finally is aware that he has a whole family. ALTHOUGH that battle scene was way too underwhelming. all that buildup was resolved a little too easily
i'm in love with reyna. also anyone that talks shit about piper because she has a 'not like other girls' syndrome i'll personally come find you and beat the shit out of you. the 7 would've been dead on MULTIPLE OCCASIONS if it weren't for her throughout the last 3 books. she's had so much growth i'm so proud of her
