@missallanea asked: “Please don’t say mean things to me.” / maxi @ percy since we talked about this? either when they were kids or as adults

While they didn't always take all of their children when they traveled to visit neighbouring noble families, the de Rolos had elected to take a few of them this time, and one of those children had been Percival. He was excited to get out of Whitestone, to see more of the country.

It wasn't the first time they'd been to the Croix Castle, either, and Percy wondered if he'd run into Maximilian again. The two of them had bonded over their love of books, and they'd kept in touch as much as they could. Percy had even sent her a book he'd read and thought that she would enjoy.

While the adults were doing whatever they'd come here to discuss, Percy wandered off to explore, as he was wont to do when left to his own devices. It had gotten him into trouble more than once before, but he was just so fascinated by the builds of the various castles.

He made his way to the place he'd met Maximilian before, hoping that she might be there again today.

And sure enough, the girl has her back to the door, and before he can greet her, she spoke, though her voice was so quiet he had to strain to hear her.

"I wouldn't dream of it," he responded, taking another step towards her. "Especially when you haven't done anything to warrant such things," Percy smiled. He'd brought her another book, hoping she hadn't read this one.
