Circe’s Island, Sea of Monsters
“I almost didn't recognize her. She was wearing a sleeveless silk dress like C.C.'s, only white. Her hair was newly washed and combed and braided with gold. Worst of all, she was wearing makeup, which I never thought Annabeth would be caught dead in. I mean, she looked good. Really good. I probably would've been tongue-tied if I could've said anything except reet, reet, reet. But there was also something totally wrong about it. It just wasn't Annabeth.
She looked around the room and frowned. ‘Where's Percy?’
I squealed up a storm, but she didn't seem to hear me.”
~Percy Jackson, SoM ch. 12
