Quest of 8 not 7
Homemade Zoo: Do you think that Dragons could be considered birds?
Brick Lover: How did this question even come about?
Hot Flame: No no hear the man out!
Resident Jeweler: Leo why are you up? Isn't it 2 for you?
Hot Flame: Your point?
Brick Lover: Leo was up because of me, I couldn't sleep so I ended up talking him up for hours
Oceanic Pressure: That was definitely the reason and nothing else
Hot Flame: Now why are you up?
Oceanic Pressure: Unlike you I am safely secured with my girlfriend and just chilling with insomnia
Resident Jeweler: ☹️ That's not good
Oceanic Pressure: Been like this for year Goldie
Resident Jeweler: 🤔 You slept fine at camp Jupiter though
Homemade Zoo: Because she had no memories
Oceanic Pressure: Franko is correct, I didn't have shit to fear
Hot Flame: Sounds rough buddy
Oceanic Pressure: Not as bad as witnessing this pinecone behavior
Hot Flame: Didn't it take you 4 years to confess to Annabeth?
Oceanic Pressure: 🙏😌 UNLIKE you I actually had reason I couldn't confess right away.
Homemade Zoo: This is getting personal real fast
Resident Jeweler: Frank, it was always personal
Brick Lover: I'm confused and very lost here, explain?
Hot Flame: Yeah Percy explained how good your reasons are?
Brick Lover: That's not what
Brick Lover: You know what nevermind
Oceanic Pressure: Okay fine, I am all for a trauma dump tonight because fuck it why not
Brick Lover: I feel the Mania from this sentence
Resident Jeweler: Okay but Percabeth love story?
Homemade Zoo: Actually yeah I'm with Hazel, Annabeth was the only good thing she remembered so I'm curious
Oceanic Pressure: Let's start with the fact that the person she had as her ideal type was Luke fucking Castellan. Yes mister host of the titan lord himself.
Oceanic Pressure: The same guy that was at the top of everything. The head Councilor that was the best swordmen and guess what?! MY TEACHER. ✨
Oceanic Pressure: So along side the fact my first quest was me worrying about someone betraying me, you know how I picked my questmates?
Oceanic Pressure: Grover my best friend and The one girl that I thought hated my guts from day 1.🙏😌 got to love how she looked straight offended while I talk about olives.
Resident Jeweler: Well we started off strong today
Homemade Zoo: Your teacher was the titan lord????
Brick Lover: Wasn't Luke like prime martyr material or whatever?
Oceanic Pressure: Think Octavian but willing killed himself after realizing he was a dumbass the whole time
Hot Flame: So many things are wrong with that sentence
Resident Jeweler: Correct but is she wrong
Hot Flame: aside Annabeth and Nico literally no one else can confirm that
Oceanic Pressure: Anyway Number two
Oceanic Pressure: Luke being Annabeth type, I'm a woman.
Hot Flame: who could pass off as a man
Oceanic Pressure: But I'm not
Oceanic Pressure: I'm not the tall blonde haired blue eyed jack of all trades that could pull a 70 year old scheme into it conclusion by playing the game
Oceanic Pressure: I was 12, a god damn noodle and one kids hated on the playground. Too girly for the boys but too boyish for the girl.
Brick Lover: I can't imagine noodle you honestly
Resident Jeweler: Pretty sure only the 3 original greek trio could.
Sugar Death: I could not, I met her when she was 14 and already getting out of the noodle phase
Oceanic Pressure: but I did see your phase
Brick Lover: baby nico
Sugar Death: and im leaving
Oceanic Pressure: welp
Resident Jeweler: okay but you and Annabeth are so insync??
Oceanic Pressure: Well we were best friends for years before we started dating. Hell we were only dating for 2 months before I went missing
Brick Lover: wait what
Hot Flame: with the way Annabeth was moving??? I thought you had been dating for years
Homemade Zoo: 2 months and somehow she surpassed magic itself
Oceanic Pressure: My divinity would tie her if I took it
Hot Flame: the fuck you mean if?
Hardcover Owl: Percy turned down immortality to have the gods pay child support
Oceanic Pressure: Also because if I went up there we couldn't see each other anymore
Hardcover Owl: 😒 You would not have let me died, absolutely knowing you you would have pulled a Dionysus
Oceanic Pressure: I wouldn't because you be mad but I would definitely force fade away
Hardcover Owl: And we can't have that happening so now we are here
Oceanic Pressure: :3
Hot Flame: Okay but you pretty much could have asked her out?
Hardcover Owl: Percy
Oceanic Pressure: Yes?
Hardcover Owl: Dog walk him right now and come back to bed.
Oceanic Pressure: Yes ma'am!
Resident Jeweler: O H
Hot Flame: I feel threatened
Brick Lover: Probably because it was a threat
Homemade Zoo: I wonder what gave that away
Oceanic Pressure: So I PRESENT my speed ran track.
Oceanic Pressure: 1) We were in the middle of an ongoing war that could not certify that we both could survive. 2) I was not sure Annabeth was into women and when I did learn that I fucked over both of us by disappearing for 2 weeks and she assumed I was dead. 3) When I was 11 and this was before Annabeth, I thought I was going to die because I witnessed the fate sisters cutting a string of life. Then when I learned what the actual great prophecy was I thought I was going to die on my 16th birthday. So the whole 4 years of dealing with impending death I was pretty sure I was going to die whether I wanted to or not at 16.
Oceanic Pressure: 4) My old step dad was an asshole and trauma is a bitch.
Oceanic Pressure: Wise girl did I miss anything?
Hardcover Owl: Not that I know of? Also We are definitely talking about this string thing because not even I knew about that.
Oceanic Pressure: I'm pretty sure the only one that does is Grover 🤔
Hot Flame: Being a big three kid is not easy hello?
Brick Lover: I could have never guessed being one was easy? <- Offered to the wolves at 2
Resident Jeweler: I know right? <- Died in the 1930s
Hot Flame: ☹️ Geez guys my bad
Homemade Zoo: Leo really is the odd one out here
Hot Flame: Hello? Frank you are a Mars kid??
Oceanic Pressure: Frank is a legacy of Poseidon so it's just you Leo
Hot Flame: 😃
Hot Flame: Annabeth
Hardcover Owl: I was with Percy for 4/5 big ventures so don't look at me.
Oceanic Pressure: Yeah no the gods have her with me by association by this point
Hot Flame: Bruh
Oceanic Pressure: So your excuse Leo?
Hot Flame: Nuh uh
Oceanic Pressure: 🤨
Homemade Zoo: Hazel you are very pretty
Resident Jeweler: Thank you Frank you are very handsome yourself
Hot Flame: I hate all of you
Brick Lover: What I do?!
Hot Flame: Exist
Oceanic Pressure: Welp I'm being dragged away, goodluck to whatever this is
Brick Lover: Good Night Percy
Homemade Zoo: Night Percy
Resident Jeweler: Night Night!!!
Hot Flame: 👹
Brick Lover: Oop
Resident Jeweler: Feral Leo will bite everyone
Sugar Death: I will bite back and give him the plague
Hot Flame: Wait can you actually?
Sugar Death: No but Will or one of his siblings probably could
Resident Jeweler: Now that's a thought
Homemade Zoo: A scary thought please no???
Hot Flame: Hypothetically
Brick Lover: Leo No
Hot Flame: You are no fun
Sugar Death: Jason how hard did that brick hit you?
Brick Lover: ????
Homemade Zoo: Too hard clearly
Hot Flame: I need you all to die
Resident Jeweler: That's not very nice of you Leo
Hot Flame: I'm going to bed boo boo BOO
Sugar Death: My cue to go as well, ciao
Resident Jeweler: Perhaps we should go to bed then? 1 am now
Homemade Zoo: We have a meeting in the morning....
Brick Lover: I forgot about that
Resident Jeweler: :(
