I am not lonely. Do I miss people? Certain individuals? Of course I do.

But I can handle myself alone just fine and even the smallest implication that I'm bothered by it is insulting. And I know you know that. So stop whining and just focus on what we're dealing with already, got it? That's the important part here.

"Certain individuals"?

Wait, dealing with what?

Certain individuals, yes. [It's half teasing.]

Living on the back of a giant turtle, for starters.

A giant turtle?

And you didn't invite me?

Literally.

It's a little less arrival by invite and more pulled at random, or believe me, Seaweed Brain, you'd be first on my list.

I'm working on it. Uh, as much as I can, at least.

Important question: sea turtle or turtle turtle?

You would break pattern if you could, out of spite.

Giant magical turtle. It spends most of the time swimming in an ocean, so probably more of the sea variety.

What, go on strike? [That would involve him sitting still and being quiet.]

I can work with "giant magical sea turtle". But no other demigods on board? Weird. We're usually magnets for stuff like this.

If it fits your situation, but I doubt you could see it through. [Because yeah, the sitting still and being quiet thing.]

No, it's just me. And given the apparent ~call for heroes~ you'd think there'd be more of us.

[Just... makes a face. Though he can't really argue with that.]

What do they need heroes for?

To fight some kind of threat, and before you ask, I have no idea what kind of threat. It's apparently some big secret, which, you know, not exactly strange territory, but still frustrating.

They've got you stumped? Whoever this is, they sound really dangerous.

[Boyfriendly concern s-sob.]

[She puffs up a little BECAUSE NO SHE'S NOT STUMPED JUST AT ROADBLOCK SHE WILL GET PASSED IT though it's not puffing up at you exactly Percy just the situation in general.] Not stumped exactly. But I've talked to the Emperor and she won't tell me more, nor does the library have the answers I want. Everything's being kept in the dark on purpose.

We've been in this situation plenty of times. [THANKS, HERA.] I know you can handle it, but, you know, be careful.

I'll be there as soon as I can.

I know. Honestly, that's the only thing that's not making me panic so much. [HERAAAAAA] But I will be.

Wait, are you really coming?

She's been considering it. I'll just be really insistent.

You don't even want to know what sort of reaction mine had just now. But we'd both be really glad to see you. [SHE MISSES YOU BOYFRAND.]

I can use that. She's almost there, but she keeps saying something about reviewing cannons.

There was lots of literal arm flailing. Does she even own any cannons?

I hope not, but you never know with these people.

You could ask her to specify.

[...]

She says I was a letter off. That she needs to re-read before she's ready.

[He's ready now. He was ready the moment Annabeth needed him.]

[She chuckles.]

That makes a lot more sense. It's funny how easy it was to clarify, huh?

[She teases because she loves you.]

[But she knows he is, she always knows that, because that's how they are.]

[And he... doesn't tease because she's always right so.]

Sometimes, it's hard to tell with her. I think she confuses me on purpose.

That's not very hard to do, so I can't really say I blame her.

[It gets the rest reactions.]

Whose side are you on?

[You wound him, Annabeth. Wound.]

Yours, Seaweed Brain. Always yours.

[also wow rest = best up there]

[Okay he can't say anything snarky to that. :(]

Then I guess I really need to be on your side. Um. I meant by your side. On the turtle.

[She shakes her head, but she's smiling. It's tiny, but entirely genuine and affectionate.]

There's no one I'd want there more.

And there's nowhere I'd rather be.

[Because you are the best gf and he is a sap.]

[THE SAPPIEST SHMOOPIEST IDIOT but she's just going to hug him now and hide her face ok]
