SORRY IF THIS ISNT ACCURATE, I DONT REMEMBER MUCH FROM SOM 😓
the one thing percy didn’t expect to happen to him during his second year of knowing he was a demigod was that he would get turned into a guinea pig. i mean, who would just expect that?
to be more specific with that, clarisse la rue was supposed to go on a quest to get the golden fleece, and on the way, go through the sea of monsters. you and percy decided to go with her anyway, even if you got in trouble at camp.
after the css birmingham was destroyed, you and percy ended up at circe’s island. she claimed to show your “true forms.” for percy, it was..a guinea pig. for you, though? circe gave you a full makeover. dressed you up in nicer clothes, put on makeup- not enough to be extra, but the type that just looks pretty.
when percy was turned back mortal, you still had the whole “makeover” on. there wasn’t really a way to take it off until you got back to camp. while you guys were waiting for the other ship that would bring you both back to camp, he just kinda..looked at you. you were gorgeous, even though the whole look wasn’t what you would normally have.
