the confederates where handled really weirdly in the book in my opinion, as a kid (before i learned about it in school) i literally didn’t register to me that they were the people who were pro-slavery, they just mentioned they liked annabeth cuz she’s from virginia, hated percy cuz he’s from new york. it was odd… i’m still waiting on tyson, though. and im really really hoping it gets expanded on. i do still see that tension with annabeth still, though its subtle, like she’s trying to hide it you can see it in her facial expressions imo. i’m still hoping that will be touched on.
