Athena&#039;s favorite wrote: I think Magnus would end up with Sam and I have a reason. Let's compare it with Percabeth. In the beginning of Lightning Thief, Annabeth show no liking to Percy, but we later learn in Mark of Athena that she had a crush on him ever since they were 12. Up until Battle of the Labyrinth, Annabeth liked Luke. In the beginning of Sword of Summer, Sam thinks Magnus is annoying. Sam also is betrothed to Amir.

In both cases we have a "couple " who think each other is annoying (Percy and Annabeth, Magnus and Sam). We also have another guy who the girl likes (Luke, Amir).

REYNA  DOES NOT NEED A GUY!!!! Perhaps, but I still don't believe that Magnus and Sam will end up together. She's been in love with her fiancee for 4 years, and by the end of the Sword of Summer, their relationship is still stable. Furthermore, Magnus considers her something akin to a sister as we see in the book. Annabeth merely had a crush of Luke and their pairing was shot down by the end of the Lightning Theif when he turned traitor, so I don't think the situation is similar.

Back to Reyna, I also think that it wouldn't be a problem if she remained single. However, the author does seem to have a tendency to find a pair for every one of his major characters and I don't think Reyna will be an exception. If that's the case, I'd rather she end up with Magnus rather than Apollo, who's a god and will most definitely leave her after a short while.
