everyone talks about rick not giving the athena kids any cool powers but being smart but like. genuinely there r so many he could have done.
give me an athena child who can talk to snakes (a lesser known symbol of athena). an athena child who can fly (owl and connections to daedalus). an athena child who can just casually make shit appear from their minds. an athena child who can calm down tense situations and prevent conflict with a form of charmspeak (goddess of peace).

Jason: alright Eurydice, calm down, no need to get stabby
Damian: I WILL— why am I Eurydice?

Mrs. O’Leary’s parents are Percy and Nico. Percy and Nico are Divorced. They both wanted full custody of her but the judges (Chiron and Annabeth and Grover and Will and Coach Hedge and Daedalus-yes Nico summoned his ghost for the custody trial-) all voted for them to split custody of Mrs. O’Leary 50/50.
Percy and Nico trade her off in the McDonald’s parking lot every Friday like all split up parents do (I know this from experience I was the kid). This weekly meet up often spurs arguments about how Mrs. O’Leary is raised. They try to keep these arguments hushed and quiet so Mrs. O’Leary won’t get stressed out. She hears them anyway because hell hounds have supper hearing. She hears every word. But she appreciates that they are being calm and mature with these arguments.
Annabeths the cool stepmom. Wills the responsible stepdad. Chiron and Daedalus and Sally and Paul and Hades and Persephone are the grandparents. Grover’s the sweet wholesome uncle. Hedge is the playful scrappy uncle. Percy and Nico are her parents.
Once a month Percy and Nico both spend a weekend with her in a secluded park or in the woods. They agree to no arguments during these weekends. These two days are about Mrs. O’Leary seeing her parents get along despite their differences and both bonding and playing with her as a family. Sometimes the stepparents or grandparents or uncles will join them. Mrs. O’Leary loves these days and cherishes the memories of her parents hanging out together and playing with her.
Edit: I am so sorry I totally forgot about Beckendorf and Silena. They’re the favorite cool older cousins that babysit every other weekend. And yes they come along on the retreat in the woods to play with her.

Minotaur
In Greek mythology, the Minotaur was a monster with the body of a man and the head and tail of a bull. The Minotaur was the offspring of the Cretan Queen Pasiphae and a majestic bull. Due to the Minotaur's monstrous form, King Minos ordered the craftsman, Daedalus, and his son, Icarus, to build a huge maze known as the Labyrinth to house the beast. The Minotaur remained in the Labyrinth receiving annual offerings of youths and maidens to eat. He was eventually killed by the Athenian hero Theseus.
The word Minotaur is a compound word consisting of the ancient Greek name "Μίνως" or "Minos" and the noun "ταύρος" or "bull." Thus, the word Minotaur comes to mean "bull of Minos." While, the Minotaur's birth name, Asterion, in ancient Greek "ἀστέριον" means "starry one" which suggests an association with the bull constellation: Taurus.
Minos & The Bull from the Sea
In Greek myth, Minos was one of the three sons from the union of Europa and Zeus; when Zeus was took the form of a bull. Europa's husband was the King of Crete, Asterion, who looked over the boys as if they were his own. When Aseterion died, it was unclear which of the three sons should ascend to power. The three sons were Minos, Sarpedon, and Rhadamanthus. It was Minos, whose name in Cretan actually means king, who was fated to be king of Crete even though Minos' ascension to power was a difficult journey because he first had to see off his sibling rivals. Minos, however, had one advantage that his brothers did not. He claimed that he had the support and authority from the gods to rule, and he boasted that he could prove it by praying for whatever he wanted and the gods would make it so. Thus, one day while sacrificing to Poseidon, he prayed that a bull would appear from the depths of the sea. Minos vowed to heaven that he would sacrifice the bull to Poseidon once it appeared. Poseidon, then, produced a magnificent bull from the sea; thus, Minos' claim for power was validated for no one dared to defy the favor of the gods, let alone the mighty Poseidon who ruled over all of the seas. As a result of winning the throne, Minos banished his brothers from Crete. The three brothers would be re-united in afterlife, for after they died they were made judges in the Underworld. It was their task to judge the dead in order to assign where their placement was in the Underworld based upon the merits of their life.
However, King Minos did not fulfill his vow to Poseidon; he kept the majestic Cretan bull for himself and sacrificed a different one to the god. Angered by King Minos' disrespect, Poseidon plotted to punish him for his arrogance and hubris. In accordance to some versions of the myth, it is Poseidon who punishes Minos by instilling a passion within the king's wife, Pasiphae, for the bull that came from the sea. However, according to the Roman author Hyginus, it is Venus (Aphrodite) who curses Pasiphae, because the Queen had not shown proper piety to the goddess for some time. The goddess punished her by sending a salacious passion for the majestic bull from the sea. Another version tells how Poseidon, angered by Minos, went to Aphrodite for her help in the matter and she cursed Pasiphae as a favor to Poseidon.
