mmm yes annabeth couldnt decide between the types of candy because she was stuck at chb for years but also. the contrast between her just seconds before, convincing percy and grover to wait while she went and bought stuff, all serious and confident, to her at the shop, unsure and trying to make the right call

Obsessed with how Annabeth isn’t spacial, she isn’t a chosen one, she has no demigod magic powers, she is for all intents and purposes, a fairly normal girl.

She’s literally known in Camp and by monsters like Alecto as the most powerful demigod alive and she doesn’t have powers. It’s almost as of girls don’t need to be magical to be a hero!
