This exchange between Leo and Jason is really poignant. I like it. Rick Riordan gets almost philosophical with that line from Jason, and I really like it.
"Trust me, Hephaestus cabin doesn't see fire powers as cool. Nyssa told me they're super rare. When a demigod like me comes around, bad things happen. Really bad".
"Maybe it's the other way around," Jason suggested. "Maybe people with special gifts show up when bad things are happening because that's when they're needed most."
