afraid of losing you
i ran fluttering
like a little girl
after her mother
afraid of losing you, sappho

You remeber icuras for his hubris
Not his long for freedom after captivity in his own trap
You remeber Medusa for her hurtful powers that rip people from the mortal world
Not the men and woman who cursed her to be this way
You remeber Persephone for her fall to hell
Not the people she stepped on to get there
Not the rules she broke
Not the joy she experienced nor the laughter she sounded through the underworld
So if you will not remeber them for their light, instead favoring the darkness
How will you view my story?

Love how Percy just casually drops lore all throughout the Son of Neptune. Frank and Hazel are getting the encyclopedia knowledge on every monster they encounter plus some extra side stories from how he fought them in gym classes and "oh yea, I had a fist fight with Kronos in Manhatten."
And then they meet Annabeth and realize that behind every goofy looking powerful guy, there's an incredibly smart, capable and even more powerful woman who makes sure he doesn't die on a daily basis and are like, "oh. thats why he's still alive."

Everyone who is into dark academia now used to either have an obsession with Greek mythology, were really into poetry and philosophy, tried to be motivated for school, loved history or considered themselves either a Ravenclaw or a Slytherin.
