Percy’s quest for blue food colouring Pt. 1
(Btw when it’s all caps that’s because it’s lines that are actually from EPIC (I just realized that I missed some lines that were supposed to be all caps but I’m too lazy to edit it))
All around him all Odysseus heard was screaming, some calling for him, others calling for their mothers and some praying to the gods… but he was frozen.
He watched the mesmerizing water horses damage his ship once more.
He saw Poseidon flipping his majestic hair but couldn’t move, he felt as if he was watching from outside of his own body.
“AND NOW IT IS FINALLY TIME TO SAY GOODBYE TODAY YOU DIE…”
“Unless of corse you apologize for my son’s pain and all his cries…”
He finally snapped out of it.
He offered his most diplomatic smile, but his face started to fall after seeing Poseidon smirk.
“THE LINE BETWEEN NAÏVETY AND HOPEFULNESS IS ALMOST INVISIBLE”
“SO CLOSE YOUR HEART, THE WORLD IS DARK AND RUTHLESSNESS IS-” “Dad, we’re out of blue food colouring”
