Your faith walks on broken glass & the hangover doesn't pass, nothing's ever built to last [W6, Fri]

[He thinks of where she could be not long after he receives his letter from Hannibal. He remembers something Natalie told him not long ago, about how she and Jason came here once to drink away their sorrows and he finds it funny even now.

It's the only bit of humor he has left.

It's with this in mind that he enters the church quietly and shuts the door silently behind him. Churches are fake, he thinks, too boxed in and too reliant on only one god. Then again, it's not like the gods have ever helped him here, have they? And they won't help now.

Percy's spoken to Natalie before about losing friends. And his heart sinks as he realizes just how true those words are.]


...Natalie?

...Can you tell everyone I'm sorry? I have to lie to them, and I just - I want them to understand why.
robitussin: (unless you sell him)

[personal profile] robitussin 2017-02-25 05:54 am (UTC)(link)
[She nods.]

I'm going to tell them all I didn't do it, and I think they're going to believe me until then.

[Which brings her to something else.]

...How did you know I killed him, anyways?
robitussin: (for just another day)

[personal profile] robitussin 2017-02-25 06:42 am (UTC)(link)
[She hesitates, but...]

I get it if the answer is no, but can I see it?
robitussin: (close enough to normal)

[personal profile] robitussin 2017-02-25 07:04 am (UTC)(link)
[She reads it over once, twice, three times before handing it back to him. After a moment:]

...Jesus.

[She isn't sure where to start.]
robitussin: (when you walk into a room)

[personal profile] robitussin 2017-02-25 07:20 am (UTC)(link)
...Thanks.

[She means that, even if she doesn't understand it.]

What are you going to do with all the merit?
robitussin: (there will be light)

[personal profile] robitussin 2017-02-25 07:27 am (UTC)(link)
[A pause.]

Knew what, that we knew about him, that he was going to die? That it was going to be me?
robitussin: (am i feeling)

[personal profile] robitussin 2017-02-25 07:44 am (UTC)(link)
...At least he won't know in time to do anything about it, I guess.

[She sighs.]
robitussin: (you've heard those lies before)

[personal profile] robitussin 2017-02-25 07:49 am (UTC)(link)
You're an idiot, but I'm pretty sure I have no right to say that anymore.

[It's a pretty shoddy attempt at humor, but.]

You better send me a letter about everything you figure out.
robitussin: (you're growing up unstable)

[personal profile] robitussin 2017-02-25 07:58 am (UTC)(link)
[It's fairly apparent in her expression that she doesn't feel brave, but she doesn't vocalize that thought. She just nods along to what he's saying.]

I will.

[A pause.]

...Can you make sure nobody lets Jason execute Will?
robitussin: (when your house has much more)

[personal profile] robitussin 2017-02-25 08:17 am (UTC)(link)
...No, he shouldn't.

[A pause, and then she shakes her head as if to clear it.]

I know he's going to want to, though. I think - I fucked up.
robitussin: (half the time afraid)

[personal profile] robitussin 2017-02-25 08:25 am (UTC)(link)
...Promise me you won't say anything that will make me need to kick you in the shin again?

[Which will probably be answer enough, but.]
robitussin: (when you walk into a room)

[personal profile] robitussin 2017-02-25 08:40 am (UTC)(link)
[just

gently drops her face into her hand]


We kissed.
