You and I were both emotional messes, so it didn’t surprise Percy and Annabeth when they found us crying in the strawberry fields.

We were crying about the afterlife. You’d go to the fields of Asphodel while I’d get reincarnated. Saytr’s don’t have souls, demigods do, we wouldn’t be together after this life.

Percy and Annabeth were watching in silence as we cried together in the fields, their gazes of pity and amusement.

My face was buried into your neck, and your head rested on my shoulder.
