[She may want to kick him in the face, but all he can do is let out a surprised choked sort of laughter at her response. Annabeth has never gone easy on him. (Thalia had never gone easy on him either. Most of the girls in his life were complicated creatures and part of him wondered what that said about him personally.) No matter. He's borderline amused by her words and at the same time it's a barbed conversation with little holes in it that he's not sure how to avoid. Partially passing is something when it comes to Annabeth though.]
What, I'm not allowed to paraphrase? I believe the words were: "There was a time I thought...you were like a brother to me, but I didn't love you." I got the video reminder a few weeks ago.
So. I'd ask "what do I have to do to fully pass" but since you're YOU you won't actually tell me. Partially passing's still pretty good for some people isn't it? [Some people. Even the way it's written indicates that it's not good enough for him and they both know it.]
