Seventeenth Memory: Yancy Academy
Nov. 13th, 2011 09:34 amMemory: “I Accidentally Vaporize My Pre-Algebra Teacher” & “Three Old Ladies Knit The Socks of Death”
Regained: Day 97, Dream
Summary: Spring semester at Yancy: Mrs. Dodds and the fruit stand trio
( So, um, Kronos ate them, right? But his wife hid baby Zeus, and gave Kronos a rock to eat instead. And later, when Zeus grew up, he tricked his dad, Kronos, into barfing up his brothers and sisters and so there was this big fight between the gods and the Titans. )
This is Percy’s first really, really big encounter with mythological figures, and it would be super-impactful… except everything that confuses Percy in this memory has been answered by later memories. So it’s just kind of nostalgic. Except the barfing thing; I’m pretty sure Percy didn’t know the barfing thing before.
