day 297, open video.
[Here's Percy looking pale and a bit... off. It's been a rough morning. One minute he's falling asleep in prison, then the next minute he's fighting the goddess of victory (and nearly dying), and then fighting Polybotes (and nearly dying again), before waking up in prison, right where he'd left off. But there was no way it had just been a dream.

When he speaks, his voice is hoarse like he'd been through a nasty coughing fit. The poison Polybotes had used against him hadn't been a joke and the experience was still fresh in his mind. Just thinking about it was enough to nearly send Percy back to choking and gagging.]

Okay, woke up confused and in pain. [A slight wince as he puts a hand against his throat as if that'll help.] I seriously don't know what's going on right now. Kind of having trouble figuring things out and my memories are all over the place.

[Nothing new for him.]

I'm, like, a decent percent sure that I'm not dying, at least. I mean, I could be wrong, but I sure hope not. I'd hate to die in this thing.

[Ah, yes. The dreaded orange jumpsuit is back.] Nico, we might need a sequel to that first shopping trip we had.

	[Take risks, breathe the air.] They're okay. [And then a moment of hesitation since nevermind, there is one guy who's not too okay.] Well... actually, Jason kind of got stabbed in the gut. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[Hold up.] Kind of? [Nico's feeling kind of worried. Jason was trying to do that "friends" thing. And Nico wasn't really letting him, but he was trying...] What happened? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Some dead Roman dude stabbed him with Imperial gold during a fight. It wasn't healing that great at first, but... [Shrugs nonchalantly.] He was looking a lot better the last time I saw him. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[...Shrug?] That's ... good. There's nothing we can do for it anyway. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I wouldn't sweat it. It's gonna take a lot more than a ghost to kill Jason. [Yeah, okay, so Percy had been the least concerned over Jason's health, but that was only because he knew what the son of Jupiter was capable of.] Besides, he, uh, saved my life while we were underwater. He's tough. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	nico_di_angelo 2014-11-12 01:23 am UTC (link)
	Yeah. You're right. [...] You guys are getting along then? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	tunapiano 2014-11-12 01:46 am UTC (link)
	Sure, total bros. We haven't tried to murder each other recently, so that's a good sign. [Curious look!] Did you guys hang out? When I was, y'know, in Tartarus. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	nico_di_angelo 2014-11-12 05:20 am UTC (link)
	Bros? [That is the dumbest thing this century ever...] It's got to be good for the quest, anyway. [Slight panic!] Uh, not as such... There was a quest we went on, for Diocletian's Scepter. Pretty uneventful really! [Such a lie! You can't tell, right?] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	tunapiano 2014-11-12 05:29 am UTC (link)
	[Don't knock the broship, grandpa.] Really? An uneventful quest? [There's only a tiny bit of suspicion because quests are always terrible.] That's kind of hard to believe. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	nico_di_angelo 2014-11-12 05:40 am UTC (link)
	Your bra didn't tell you anything about it? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	tunapiano 2014-11-12 05:47 am UTC (link)
	[Give him a second or three as he tries to remember. The disorientation isn't helping.] No... he didn't. [And now that he thinks about it, that's pretty lame.] Was he supposed to? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	nico_di_angelo 2014-11-12 05:55 am UTC (link)
	[Nico looks relieved. Like, really relieved.] Nah. We got the scepter. There's not much else to tell. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	tunapiano 2014-11-12 06:01 am UTC (link)
	[BUT WHY.] Man, why couldn't I have been there with you guys? [Grumble, mumble.] I never get the easy quests. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	nico_di_angelo 2014-11-12 06:14 am UTC (link)
	Dude, you were... [He stops before he can say in Tartarus, but it's probably too late to save it. Well, they're almost to the store, at least. He can see the sign.] That's it up there. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	tunapiano 2014-11-12 06:17 am UTC (link)
	[Yeah, that... that gets him to look away uncomfortably. Thankfully, they can talk about the store!!] Awesome, I can't wait to get out of these. Do you have a changing room or anything inside? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

Oh, um. No. That's a good idea, though. [He should definitely look into add one of those.] I can lock it up if you want some privacy.

[It's not much. He didn't want much. He's still figuring out the best way to display things, so it looks a little haphazard. The signs are handwritten - not by him. He had help with that. He enters first, and finds the place empty, which comes as no surprise.] Take whatever you want.

	That's okay. Maybe I'll duck behind something real quick. [Gets to browsing around! Even though he's here for clothes, he can't help but pick up and check out the occasional odd item.] Neat. What gave you the idea to open this place up? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	nico_di_angelo 2014-11-12 07:09 am UTC (link)
	[Nico settles himself on a chair in the back of the room, sitting crosslegged on it.] A conversation with Aidan. He had some stuff he needed to unload, and it seemed like a good idea to have a place like this around. It's also good for rehab points. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	tunapiano 2014-11-12 08:19 am UTC (link)
	Huh. [Pauses in his poking around to glance over at Nico.] I know it's a prison and all, but I got to say... this place might actually be good for you. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	nico_di_angelo 2014-11-12 06:26 pm UTC (link)
	[He frowns, kind of confused. He hasn't seen it that way. He did have a friend. And he was able to open up some to couple people.] I don't know. Maybe. I'm just trying to get by. People are pretty accepting here. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	tunapiano 2014-11-12 07:15 pm UTC (link)
	Accepting of what? [Now Nico's got his full attention.] Being a son of Hades? [Percy looks troubled at the thought. Camp could be accepting too, after all, if only the other boy would give it a chance.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	nico_di_angelo 2014-11-12 07:32 pm UTC (link)
	Yeah. [And other stuff, apparently, though he's not spreading that around.] Though I can't raise the dead here, so who knows. But ... yeah. No one's been scared off yet. [He tried after Manhattan. It didn't work out. It is never going to work out.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	tunapiano 2014-11-12 07:38 pm UTC (link)
	I'm just glad you're opening up somewhere. [Grabs a shirt and some pants without really paying much attention to what he's grabbing.] You look a lot happier here than you did back in our world. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	nico_di_angelo 2014-11-12 07:53 pm UTC (link)
	[Raises an eyebrow. At least check the sizes. Though he's not sure about those colors either.] I do? Um, thanks. I still feel like a mess most of the time. [He rubs a hand over the pink pearl, set on a black band, on his wrist, that gives him happy feelings. It's too bad a lot of the happy he feels isn't actually his.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	tunapiano 2014-11-12 08:00 pm UTC (link)
	[No, he will rock this ugly shirt.] You know, that offer to talk to me whenever is still on the table. [Takes notice of the bracelet.] What's that? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)
