Miracle of miracles, Percy had gotten up early and actually gone down to the salle for a lengthy training session. He'd been feeling out of shape and decided getting back in shape and giving him an outlet to channel...everything into was needed. It'd been a long work out and an intense one. His hands hurt from gripping Riptide and his hair was ( Read more... )

If you'd asked Percy about this sort of thing happening a few days ago, he would have said no and then walked away. But, it was happening. After teasing each other at the dance, Percy and Luke had gotten themselves out of there and were just now getting inside his room ( Read more... )

With nothing to do today, Percy was still in bed. The benefits of being in a single meant he could lay around in his shorts (under some blankets because he got cold easily) and not bother anyone. He figured he could have gotten up and trained (he could see Chiron's stern expression in his head right now) but it was Sunday and it was raining and ( Read more... )

Percy figured he'd catch a portal home for Christmas day, at least, and spend it with his mom and Paul but other than that, he hadn't been feeling the Christmas spirit this year. He'd never been really into it but this year had been worse than previous years. He'd just been in a funk for awhile and hadn't been able to get out of it ( Read more... )

Lately, Percy had been laying low. After Parents Weekend, he'd gotten moody and sort of disillusioned with a lot of things. And when he piled Luke's...mess on top of it, Percy hadn't been the best company to be around. He was feeling a little better tonight but not by much. Even Grover had commented on his crankiness during their Iris message ( Read more... )

Percy had completely missed Homecoming and he didn't really mind it. He hadn't wanted to go and stand around in an uncomfortable suit and he hadn't wanted to drink punch that tasted nasty. He'd had a good time with his mom and Paul and even gotten away to see Grover for awhile. All in all, it'd been a good decision on his part ( Read more... )

Parent's Weekend was this weekend and for once, Percy was kind of glad that Poseidon wasn't around. He didn't want to explain the whole Luke thing to him and he didn't need Poseidon finding out about his dealings with Kronos because he was pretty sure Luke would end up deader than dead. And then Kronos would be pissed. It'd just be a big mess ( Read more... )

Percy wasn't doing a damn thing tonight. He thought about going down to the bar to laugh at the people who were on dates but he figured that'd get old fast. He'd already taken Mrs. O'Leary down to the beach so that was out for at least a few hours ( Read more... )

Last night had been fun. Percy had sent Marshall on his way because while he was all about fun, he wasn't all about that cuddling and gross closeness stuff that some people liked. His parents had robbed him of those emotions when they'd cut him off from his family and treated him like the black sheep he was. He vowed to stay alive, to grow up ( Read more... )

Percy had spent all day at the beach and in the water. As always, being in the water seemed to be the only thing that could completely settle his nerves down. So, he'd gone down to the beach just after dawn and he'd just swam. He'd swam several miles out, both above water and under it. He'd swam parallel with the beach and even just floated ( Read more... )
