One boy, one girl, two hearts, their world time goes by, secrets rise [W5, Sat, Post-Trial]

[hydrokinetics]

[It's a few hours later, late at night and quiet. The town's settled down after the trial again and Percy seems to be taking Mrs. O'Leary out for one more late-night walk. It shouldn't surprise him, but it does. It surprises him to see a lone figure walking away from the Sheriff's station and it's only because of who it is that he calls out.]

Xion.

Don't be stupid!

[ It's ... not really clear what part she's saying that about. Either way she backs away from him, shaking her head rapidly. ]

I... I... I have to go.

[Normally he'd try to stop her, but the moment those words leave her lips she'll notice his expression close completely.

"Don't be stupid!" Like a slap to the face for trying to do something good. Well. Oh well. He's not too surprised and instead he cants his head before nodding.]

Then go. [The tone itself is short, too. He's done here, it seems.] Be safe wherever you go. [And before she can run, he stops to whistle for Mrs. O'Leary, turning on his heel to head back to the hotel.

Xion's clearly smarter than he is. She'll handle herself just fine.]
