Za'kiir and Natalie are so much fun to read, but there are some spelling and grammar issues:

Give my partner and I your guidance, O god of Thieves and Merchants.
Wouldn’t "Give me your guidance" be correct? Adding another person, like "my partner", shouldn’t change this. (Apparently, many people fell into the habit of saying words like "My partner and me went somewhere" to an extent that it began to look right because it was seen so often. Then the backlash came and had such an impact that to some people "another person and me" now looks wrong even when it’s right?)

The agents clapped along with the rest of the campers, through their smiles were tight —
I believe you meant "though".

Apparently none of the other gods couldn’t stop talking about it ...
I’m not quite sure what you are trying to say there. The double negation actually says that Mr. D is the only god who couldn’t stop talking about it, but maybe that’s the reason why he wants Ally to do something?

How had she gotten her?
If you aren’t alluding to the Sue’s weird way of thinking, this should be "here" (or less probably "there").

How do you who I am?
If this weren’t the Sue speaking, I would guess that the missing word wasn’t left out intentionally.

Yeah, I could have seen it coming, but then I didn’t. When the "goddess" claimed that she had been forgotten, I wondered whether she could even still exist. But since I didn’t know how this works in Percy Jackson canon, I dismissed the thought, because nobody could be this stupid, and forgot all about it. Surprise, surprise! Atalantis could, and found a rightful Death by Canon.
