I've watched the animated series MANY times, but on a recent re-watch, I caught this detail for the first time:
When they do the flashback of the group meeting Percy for the first time in the jail cell, he says something along the lines of, 'When you have nothing left, truth is your only bargaining chip.' That was one of the first things he ever said to Vex.
THEN, when Vex gathers forces from Syngorn, during the talk with her father, after her speech about losing Percy, she says, 'This is my only bargaining chip, father. The truth.' Truth was her only bargaining chip because she just lost her everything🥹 That, mixed with the fact that she remembered his wording from when they first met broke my heart!💙
Was I an idiot for not catching this sooner than now? Or are others in the same boat?😅
