nico-di--angelo:

I’ve seen you fight whole armies. And now some probatios beat you?

Maybe I’m just getting too old for this stuff. [He laughed.]

I’m fine, just...don’t tell Piper.

[gracedbylightning]

nico-di--angelo:

They kicked your ass, former Praetor. [He raised an eyebrow at Jason] Is there something wrong?

What? [Jason looked up at Nico through one eye.] What makes you think that something’s wrong?

I’m fine, just...don’t tell Piper.

[gracedbylightning]

nico-di--angelo:

You know she’s going to find out anyway.

Yeah, but let’s let me heal up a bit first. [He gritted his teeth.] I can’t believe a probatio got the drop on me...

I’m fine, just...don’t tell Piper.

I’m fine, just...don’t tell Piper.

[gracedbylightning]

I’m not sure I’m the best person to talk to about that...

[Reyna sighed] I know. I’m fine, Jason, really. I just have a lot on my plate right now. You remember what it was like to be Praetor, don’t you? 

I do. I also remember that it never helped keeping my problems and frustrations to myself.

But, if you don’t want to talk about it...I understand.

reyna-of-newrome:

Yes, I am. [Reyna answered matter-of-factly in an attempt to convince him, though she knew he often saw right through her.] Now, what ideas did you have for me about security protocols? 

That can wait. You know you can talk to me if you need to.

[gracedbylightning]

reyna-of-newrome:

No, no, of course you’re not. [Reyna cleared some papers off of her desk, folding her hands on top] I’m all ears. Just know I’ll have to run anything by Frank before we implement any changes. 

[Jason frowned. He’d known Reyna long enough to know when she was stressed.] Are you okay?

Leo and Jason: *walk up to a puddle of gasoline*

Leo: Gasoline?

Jason: I’m pretty sure that’s water.

Leo: *thumb catches on fire* Only one way to find out.

Leo: *throws spark in puddle, gasoline catches on fire*

Jason:

Jason: There are more ways to tell!

[gracedbylightning]

I was hoping to run some security protocol ideas by you? I’m not overstepping my line of duty here, am I?

I’m sorry, run that by me one more time. What is it you’re asking?

[gracedbylightning]

Gimme your best shot!

Percy: I’m such a hopeless bromantic.

Jason: Um, what?

Percy: Like, high five me in the rain, fist bump me gently as the sun sets.

They just watched Wonder Woman and needed to do That Jump

I appreciate the vote of confidence, but this is basically the equivalent of ghost hunting. I’d have to build the vacuum backpacks from ghostbusters.

Who ya gonna call? I just watched that one with Piper.

Sorry, I didn’t get much sleep last night.

And if they don’t work? You’re our second line of defense?

The Twelfth Legion Fulminata is the second line of defense.

Sorry, I didn’t get much sleep last night.

valdezinatorr:

Well, yeah, but they’re mainly against physical threats. The monsters that attacked us were basically apparitions. It’s not easy to fight something like that. I’m working on it, but that could take a little longer.

Well, if anyone can figure it out, it’s you.

Sorry, I didn’t get much sleep last night.

You children of the Big Three are a handful.

I’m okay. Just worried about that thing lurking. Kinda hard to go about our days knowing we can be attacked anytime soon.

We’re working on it...Leo says he has some ideas for booby traps.

Sorry, I didn’t get much sleep last night.
