[Be fair, Nico, a large part of that is because you haven't tried. Will it be difficult? Yes. But you built your cabin and pretty much just ran away from camp, so almost no one knows you but Percy and somewhat Annabeth. Give it a chance - stick around. It won't happen right away, but it'll happen.]

Same, but I can't get away from him. I don't know how Annabeth managed to go up there almost every day to rebuilt Olympus and have to deal with the gods day in and day out. She's got some wild stories about how big their temples had to be and how their homes all had to be better than everyone else's.

[And, amazingly, Percy seems to have consumed enough candy for the time being, as he drops his bag next to his feet without pulling any more out.] Yeah - but I'm a stupid mortal, you know. I wanted it to change faster than that.
