i feel like percy is the type of fighter who would laugh if a monster ran away from him out of fear. but annabeth is the type of fighter who would call them a coward and run after it.
I mean this was the vibe with the Sphinx in BotL wasn’t it? Percy is like “Yes. YES! We’re chillin! Annabeth is so smart! We prob won’t have to fight this thing!”
And Annabeth is like “This is not a riddle! Give me a fucking riddle!” Until the Sphinx got fed up with her and attacked.
