Summary: Percy knows some things are facts.



There are things that Percy has always known.

Among those are that he is smart (except for when he’s not, which seems to be all the time now), that he is the good child (‘good’ meaning that he behaves, not that he lives up to the idolized form of his dead uncles), and that his younger siblings are a handful (which he is secretly thankful for, because that will be what gets them to adulthood without turning them into him).

But Percy knows that there’s things he’ll never know, especially because he gives himself breaks far too often from studying.

So he promises himself in his mind that he will keep his resolutions this year, that he will study and write and never let himself fall off the pedestal that he is on.

Because Percy knows he is nothing if he isn’t the perfect student.
