I always put myself in destructive situations [W5, Friday]

[hydrokinetics]

[It took time. Everything took time as it always did. It took time for them to all calm down, it took time to heal physical wounds, it took time to properly remove the evidence of obscene crimes...but in the evening they were able to gather in one place away from everyone else. It hadn't been easy coordinating everything, but it was necessary.

And so here they were. All seven of them.]

...I don't really know where to start. [His voice is tight, but determined.] But we need everybody on the same page. Who wants to go first?

...I like Will, but gods he's weird. [But he's busy thinking...thinking...thinking...]

The relationship kind of sounds a little...[Yeah, he's not finishing that thought. This isn't the time.] I'm not saying that Will's words are right, but with everything we know now maybe we should really read between his lines, too. And not dump more water on his head.

If we're not off about Hannibal, you shouldn't like Will, either. From what he was saying, he knows better than anyone what Hannibal is like, and sticks around anyways.

I didn't dump it on his head. [A fake offended scoff.] I dumped it on his lap so everyone would think he pissed himself.

[That earns her a startled laugh.] Of course that's what you did.

[But the amusement fades shortly after.] My mom stayed with a jerk who abused her for years because he was so awful it kept monsters away from me while I was growing up. I'm not saying that Will might not be as trustworthy as I want him to be, but it's also possible that he's with Hannibal for a whole other reason.

[Too bad Percy knows nothing about how Hannibal and Will really are, RIP us.]
