Not my least favorite pairing though. I have to give that to Caleo. Calypso turned into an obnoxious tsundere and I hate tsunderes. If you don't know what tsundere is, think of a girl who constantly puts down and bullies a certain boy by calling him names and insulting his abilities but only does this because she actually really likes him and doesn't know how to show it. Tsunderes are brats that will refuse to show they care about the person they love (accept on rare occasions) but expects the love interest to just know. Tsunderes are tempermental with mood swings. Sometimes they are even physically violent (they might slap a boy if he doesn't read her mind about what she wants at that particular moment). But, aren´t those Annabeth´s character traits in PJO? I mean, i like Annabeth, but it ´s kinda funny that a common complain about Calypso is she being a tsundere with Leo, but nobody seems annoyed by Annabeth.

For the favorite ships. Meh, I like Percabeth, Solangelo and Frazel. Difference was that Annabeth wasn't constantly like a tsundere. She able to be kind to Percy and work with him well during the war. The only time her jealousy showed was when Rachel was brought up. She took a knife for him, told him her battle plans etc.

Another thing is, once Rachel wasn't threatening her relationship with Percy, she was fine. She treated Percy nice with light teasing. Calypso continued being a jerk, but Leo found it endearing. It was supposed to be jokes Calypso was telling too but it came off as entitled and mean ("About time you got here!" after her boyfriend killed himself for her).

As for Commander Tool Belt : First strike? Leo did yell at Percy in that instance. He was ready to blame and rage at Percy for hurting Calypso. He only backed down when he realized (and remembered like he shouldn't have forgotten) that Percy would never do something like that out of spite. Even after that, Leo wanted to hate Percy, to be mad at him. Immaturity at it's best. Second strike? It's one thing to only tell Hazel and Frank (which, as you pointed out, was a good idea since the others wouldn't like the idea) but Leo went as far as handing a fake cure to his other friends and telling them it works. What would they do if say, Jason was dead, and Piper wanted to use the cure but figured out it was a fake? Third strike? I was not talking about that instance. I was talking about, upon being brought back to life, his first thought was Calyspo and not informing his mourning friends he is still alive. Instead of being like a decent human being and going to check up on his friends, then going to find a girl he only knew a few weeks, he didn't even bother sending his friends a message until he was with Calypso again. Leo prioritized his want of being with Calypso over informing his friends he's known for an entire year that he wasn't dead. He was beyond selfish and even the author realized this, allowing the campers to take turns punching Leo in The Trials of Apollo.
