The Pool | Afternoon | Tuesday | May 8

It was warm enough to head to the beach but Percy wasn't feeling like walking all the way into town today. He still wanted to be in the water but the beach meant sand in his shoes and salt water in his eyes. Of course, chlorine wasn't much better but it was closer.

So, Percy took himself down to the pool and, after stripping down to his swimsuit, jumped in. He did a few lazy laps, just enjoying how being in the water immediately made him feel stronger and more at home. After those laps, he let himself sink down to the bottom of the pool.

And that's where he was now, just sitting cross legged on the bottom of the pool, having no problems with that whole breathing thing.

Son of Poseidon and all.

[Open, sure]

"Yeah, you're annoying that way," Luke said. "At least this time it benefits me."

"Get going, old man," Percy said, shooing him. "You need the head start with your rickety hips and all."

He climbed out of the pool and sat on the deck, shaking his hair out and wiping his eyes.

"Oh shut up." Luke did get start to move towards the exit though. Percy didn't need to worry about Luke's hips considering after a couple steps he used his powers to get upstairs. His legs were wet, it would have been uncomfortable walking all the way there.

Percy grabbed his towel from nearby and draped it over his shoulders before he started walking up towards his room. Unlike Luke though, he didn't have any fancy powers. So, Luke would have to wait and...anticipate.

Percy smirked to himself and kept moving. He'd be there soon and then they'd spend the afternoon in his room. Not a bad day at all.
