The Heroes of Olympus/Awesome

• Any moment with Leo is this or a Crowning Moment of Funny
  • Or a Tear Jerker.
• Piper standing up to Drew and taking her place as senior counselor, through sheer force of personality and charm, proving herself a true daughter of Aphrodite.

• Jason Grace: Bad-Ass!

"I'm the son of Jupiter! I'm a child of Rome, consul to demigods, praetor of the First Legion. I slew the Trojan sea monster. I toppled the the black throne of Kronos, and destroyed the Titan Krios with my own hands. And now I'm going to destroy you Prophyrion, and feed you to your own wolves." Yikes. Just - yikes.

• • Wouldn't that kind of make him a Smug Super?
• Percy in Son of Neptune is on an I.V. of Crazy Awesome with hints of Badass mixed in. Let's start with the fact that he talked nothing but smack to Mars/Ares, in front of the Roman Camp, of which he's the second most powerful god. The next time he meets Juno/Hera in a dream, he dunks her in the river, mouthed off, and showed no respect. He takes no lip from them.
  • "Again, Frank waited for the god to strike him (Percy) down, but Mars just grinned like they were two old buddies talking trash" That's some Worthy Opponent vibe going on there. It also counts as a Crowning Moment of Funny
  • Percy proving that sometimes amnesia is incapable of eliminating how Badass you are, especially when you have monsters after you.
  • Anytime Percy is doing his awesome sauce son of Poseidon thing,opening a can of whoop-ass and drinking it down in Son of Neptune.
  • Percy's Batman Gambit against Phineas. He uses himself as blackmail against Gaea to force her to influence Phineas to choose the wrong vial of gorgon blood.
  • Let's not forget his initial moment of awesome in the Roman camp, where he broke through a legion of Roman demigods through sheer speed, strength, agility, and his less organized, wilder combat style. Sure, he wasn't there alone, but Frank stated that Percy was part of the problem keeping the Romans from organizing to fight. The other part of that problem was a war elephant.

"I think I like capture the flag."

• Frank rendering Alcyoneus Not So Invincible After All by dragging him across the border to Canada. While smacking him with a shield, all the way. In the face.
• Hazel finding out what was actually happening on the island and killing herself and her mother so it wouldn't work, as well as destroying the island. Then, once she gets to the Underworld, she gives up Elysium so her mother won't go to the Fields of Punishment.
• Frank upon luring Alcyoneus back into the realm where the gods have influence.

Frank: Welcome to Canada, idiot.

• Tyson during the battle.

Tyson: Bad Cyclops Lady! General Tyson says GO AWAY!
