She couldn’t do that. ”I think not everyone hates me because I’m a Hades kid. I think some of them just hate me.” She felt so foolish. It had been wildly egotistical of her to assume that people didn’t like her only because of some unfair reason that was out of her control.

If someone knows where he is or happens to look right at him, he might become visible again. It's more like he's evading people's ability to notice him.

Her face was downcast. Terrance was upset with Elsie, but it didn’t matter at this point. He’d liked her before, and Jenny now knew that her previous assumptions about peoples’ hostility were faulty. Terrance’s relationship with Elsie didn’t impact that anymore. ”He turns kinda invisible sometimes. I’m sure he’ll be back. He’s talked to you more than anyone else, so he’s probably not going to stay mad at you.” No reason to make Elsie upset because of Terrance too.
