“Think positive. Tomorrow you’re off to camp! After orientation, you’ve got your date—” “It’s not a date!” I protested. “It’s just Annabeth, Mom. Jeez!” “She’s coming all the way from camp to meet you.” “Well, yeah.” “You’re going to the movies.” “Yeah.” “Just the two of you.” “Mom!” She held up her hands in surrender, but I could tell she was trying hard not to smile.” HumorPercy JacksonAnnabeth ChasePercy Jackson And The OlympiansPercabethSally Jackson Book:The Battle of the Labyrinth Source: The Battle of the Labyrinth
“But how will you get back? I'm worried Percy." I hoped I wasn't blushing. It was bad enough I had to depend on my mom to drive me to battles. "It's okay Ms Jackson" Annabeth smiled reassuringly. Her blonde hair was tucked into a ski cap and her grey eyes were the same color as the ocean. "We'll keep him out of trouble." My mom seemed to relax a little. She thinks Annabeth is the most level-headed demigod to enter eighth grade. She's sure Annabeth often keeps me from getting killed. She's right but that doesn't mean I have to like it.” SarcasmAnnabeth ChasePercabethSally Jackson Author:Rick Riordan

You invented this for me?” Sally wiped her hands on her apron. “Well, actually, I can’t take credit—” “You are too modest!” I tried some of the dip. It tasted almost as good as ambrosia nachos. “You will have immortal fame for this, Sally Jackson!” Percy JacksonApolloSally Jackson Book:The Hidden Oracle Source: The Hidden Oracle
“If I had still been an immortal, I might have flirted with her myself. But I was now a sixteen-year-old boy. My mortal form was working its way upon my state of mind. I saw Sally Jackson as a mom—a fact that both consternated and embarrassed me. I thought about how long it had been since I had called my own mother. I should probably take her to lunch when I got back to Olympus.” HumorMothersApolloSally Jackson Book:The Hidden Oracle Source: The Hidden Oracle
