Ella, just stay here. Stay safe. Safe, Ella repeated. Ella likes being safe. Safety in numbers. Safety deposit boxes. Ella will go with Tyson. What? Percy said. Oh... fine, whatever. Just don't get hurt. And Mrs. O'Leary— ROOOF. How do you feel about pulling a chariot?

Maybe that's why he had started to fear suffocation. It wasn't so much drowning in the earth or sea but the feeling that he was sinking into too many expectations, literally getting in over his head.
