With great power… comes great need to take a nap. Wake me up later.

Jeden Tag bekam Danae zwei Kekse und ein Glas Wasser. Kein Hofgang. Keine Besucher. Kein WLAN. Nichts. Vielleicht fragt ihr euch, warum Akrisios sie nicht einfach umbrachte, wenn er doch solche Angst davor hatte, dass sie Kinder bekommen könnte. Also, liebe Freunde mit Gewaltfantasien, die Götter nahmen Morde an Familienmitgliedern sehr ernst (was schon seltsam ist, da die Götter ja mit den Morden innerhalb der Familie angefangen hatten).

Look, I didn't want to be a half-blood. Being a half-blood is dangerous. It's scary. Most of the time, it gets you killed. If you think you might be one of us, my advice is turn away while you still can. Believe whatever lie your mom or dad told you about your birth. Try to live a normal life. Because once you know what you are, they'll sense it too. And they'll come for you. Don't say I didn't warn you.

If my life is going to mean anything, I have to live it myself.

Don't feel bad, I'm usually about to die.

In a way, it's nice to know that there are Greek gods out there, because you have somebody to blame when things go wrong. For instance, when you're walking away from a bus that's just been attacked by monster hags and blown up by lightning, and it's raining on top of everything else, most people might think that's just really bad luck; when you're a half-blood, you understand that some divine force is really trying to mess up your day.
