[ alright, since Luke never seems to want video, Percy can at least take a hint and use voice instead.
Percy wasn't sure if Luke would even want to hear from him, considering he bailed out of the infirmary before Percy even got back, so it's entirely possible that he'd rather do anything but talk to Percy. but hey; since when has Percy ever cared that someone would rather avoid him? never. ]
Hey. We don't have to talk about everything if you don't feel up to it, just let me know you're doing alright? [ a beat. ] And whenever a good time is to drop off a rat for George and Martha 'cause I still owe them a good one.
[ luke can barely get a word in edge wise before george's voice, so loud and so commanding, responds to percy's statement. it's not about luke's well-being he speaks up about, perhaps undermining any lies he may wish to feed the kid of the sea. it's about himself. ]
[ good to know you care, george. ]
You seriously did not get them a rat. [ is that aggravation in his voice? yes, yes it is. this is on par with someone humming the macarena. does percy not understand what he has just reawakened? when there is a giant, black log on the bottom of the ocean floor, one does not go and poke godzilla in the eye! ] Dude, this is why we text. Now he's not going to shut up until he gets it.
[ haha, whoops. Percy starts laughing as soon as Luke speaks up, despite the frustration in his voice. ]
Yeah, sorry, kinda didn't think about it. But I totally did! I promised a rat, so I got one.
[ because he really doesn't like breaking promises, even little ones like giving a rat to a certain resident on a godly staff. he'd broken really important promises before -- he wasn't about to do it again, even for something as silly as this. ]
You think I fairy would take it over if I asked them really nicely?
