I eat cupcakes and make RP journals when I have too many feels.

[oceancurrents]

You know, saying "it'll be nicer here than it is in your day-to-day life" isn't really all that comforting. I mean, you're probably right. Still, the inside of your head? Nothing like Manhattan. I'm sure you knew that already, though. I'm just saying that it's probably considered cruel and unusual punishment to keep me up here. As much as I'd like a vacation, and believe me I would, this isn't what I had in mind.

And now you're dragging Annabeth into this. I'm sure this isn't her idea of a vacation either. Besides, she'll find a way to blame me for it and that never ends well.

[oikodomos]

I already blame you for this, seaweed brain. You're a little late for that.

[oceancurrents]

This isn't actually my fault, you know.

[oikodomos]

[. . .

sigh.]

I know. This one's had me floating around for a while now. You're just the reason I'm actually here.

[oceancurrents]

No, no, I'm not taking the blame for this. It was my mun's fault. She found the icons, she, and I quote, "spilled her feels all over Plurk."

But on the upside, at least you're here in case, you know, the world starts to end again.

I NEED MORE ICOOOONNNNSSSSSSS

[oikodomos]

Yeah, because the end of the world is really what we need to deal with right now.

I'm digging some up for you. <3

[oceancurrents]

Yeah, I'm kind of hoping it stays saved for awhile this time.

So, what's the plan?

you are incredible

[oikodomos]

You'd think it could handle a few months. The earth, I mean.

Well, it might be a good idea just to...see what happens, I guess. Assess the situation. Neither of us are really sure what we're up against with this, so we'll just have to sit tight. For now.

no u

[oceancurrents]

Sit tight? I'm not really great at that.

On the upside, I haven't run into any monsters yet. And it's been almost a whole day.

nu uh

[oikodomos]

I know, I know. You'll just have to try really hard for me here while I figure things out.

[She's just teasing you at this point, Percy.]

You know, I haven't either. It's kind of weird.

yeah huh

[oceancurrents]

I'll do my best. [He's teasing. He's totally capable of taking a breather. Mostly.]

I want to find it nice but it's actually almost unsettling.

oh noooooo stupid age face thing.

[oikodomos]

I sure hope so. [It's that mostly she's worried about.]

Yeah, the waiting for something to happen is almost worse.

:( Finding the perfect PB is suffering

[oceancurrents]

It sounds like I won't have to wait too long: I hear I might be thrown at some of the memes.

BUT NOW I CAN HAVE BOTH. :D

[oikodomos]

Already? [Can you tell she's not a fan of the idea?]

Though that would make sense. Your mun did jut finish reading the series. Mine's going back over them, so she's not yet to that point.

BECAUSE YOU HAVE BRILLIANT SOLUTIONS TO PROBLEMS

[oceancurrents]

[He isn't either.]

Yeah. I really hate the idea of being a new shiny toy. But she mostly eyes the relatively nice memes, so I'm holding out hope that it will be more like a vacation here.

But she does keep saying "I can't do anything too much worse than what you go through at home." Not comforting.

:DDDDDDDDDDDDDD

[oikodomos]

Relatively being the key word there.

Just...be careful. It might not be worse than home, but that doesn't mean it'll be good.

[oceancurrents]

[Keywords]

I still have Riptide, so I'm alright on that front. Besides, you're here so... [He's got someone to watch his back and/or be his emotional rock. Yep.]

[oikodomos]

[Perfect.]

I'm here if you need me.

[And he's here too, which does make it better.]

Just don't forget to ask for help when you get in over your head, okay?

[oceancurrents]

Don't I always? [Is that a trick question...?]

[oikodomos]

Very funny.

[oceancurrents]

I thought so too.

But seriously, the same goes for you. No more protecting me from my fate or anything, alright?

[oikodomos]

Yeah yeah. [eyeroll.]

But I will, since you asked so nicely.

[oceancurrents]

All this time, all I had to do was say please?

[Hesitantly:] And... on a scale of 1 to 10, how mad would you be if I tried to convince my mun to convince your mun to take us somewhere nice. Temporarily. No monsters, uh, unless you want monsters because I could probably swing that too. [So smooth, Percy, so smooth.]

[oikodomos]

Did you just ask me out on a date?

[Wow, Percy, that was really smooth.

But she's...giving it thought. Like actually giving it thought.]

No monsters? Hmm...probably a three. Closer to two.

[Way to go, she can't stop smiling.]

[oceancurrents]

[He'll chalk that up as a victory. ]

A two? Maybe I'll chance it. Any other requests besides "no monsters"?

[oikodomos]

[who it hits her this might actually happen.]

And it can be anywhere?
