Okay, so, in my imagination, Lambert is a Son of Zeus. Both because this makes him Very Powerful, and because the idea of their contrasting personalities is very funny to me.
Imagine being Samuel Lambert, and on top of being star-eyed and completely enamoured with understanding the way the world turns, people make fun of you for speaking of things that aren't there. And you do try, you try really hard to fit in, but it's just too much when you look up at the night sky sometimes and you swear you can see the stars moving and the heavens aligning and it feels like the clouds are just parting out of the way for you.
But then come the monster attacks. And you are too smart to not know that something is coming after you. No matter what your mom says, and no matter who you try to be, they keep coming. Bullies and strangers and even teachers, sometimes, come after you and they won't stop. They are relentless, and the only way to get away from it is when you spend time late at night staring at the sky, being amazed at how the stars work and wondering and wishing if you could just reach beyond them.
And camp is amazing. It really is. The only issue is, you've lost your mom, the one person who supported you and who you felt like knew what was going on, And the person closest to being your best friend turns out to be half goat, and there's this new girl that you've met, who really has it out for you.
And even though Fisher is nice, and he still is kind to you, he's part of this world, not yours. Well, not the one you used to be part of. And it's hard to decide where you want to be. Do you want to be here, where your mom is gone and nothing makes sense anymore, or do you want to be there, where nothing makes sense anyways.
And so you accept it. You accept living in the Hermes cabin, and you accept that you are just going to have to get used to it. And Fisher's still there, and he's still your friend, and even the girl who kind of hates your guts is starting to warm up to you a little. Even if she doesn't agree with that dusty old (Probably outdated) rule book you found in Mr. D's house and insist on carrying around with you.
But then, comes the claiming.
