[He sort of rolls his eyes to the ceiling.] Sometimes they don't go far enough when people think you cause trouble everywhere you go. But I feel that way about other people.
I'd believe that. [Eventually he joins Val at the table with his own cup of shitty coffee, focused more on the warmth than anything else.] You haven't been getting into too much trouble here at least. You're off your game, man.
You ever think we're gonna run out of stuff to fight in there? I keep thinking about what we haven't uncovered yet but how the forest doesn't seem to like us exploring. [Not that that's going to stop him, but you know.]
Maybe. I just wish we had a better way to map this stupid thing.
[...] Speaking of. I got something I want to show you. [Off he goes, brb. He'll return though with what looks like a map in his hands, handing it over to Val.
...or. It's a map to Percy. To Val, it looks like a weather piece of parchment. Tada...?]
What? No, dude, look. [He points at Siren Island which is definitely just a blank spot on a blank piece of paper for Val.] This is the island those sirens were on. Minato and I went back later to explore.
Are you kidding me? [This is asked toward the ceiling to someone they probably can't see. Thanks a lot, Mr. F.] It was a quest reward, I was kind of thinking it'd help us.
You think? [He's still looking at the map, letting his fingers walk across the parchment.] This is the town. The island's over here. Those are the only places I've been so far. It's kind of a big map though.
...maybe. [That's actually a really good theory.] And I don't know. Maybe because it's my reward? There are things I can see at home that most people can't. It could be like that.
Val, you're still the first demon I've actually met. [Hm.] Monsters can see through things, obviously, and some mortals can if they're gifted with the Sight. My mom can, and Rachel can, too. It's still not that common though.
Maybe. [He's chewing his lip in thought.] I kind of wish Rachel was here. She might have a better idea of what's going on, but with everything happening with the oracles back home maybe not. At least it'd answer what people can and can't see.
Yeah, well, I don't even know who I'd ask. I'm open to suggestions but if you can't see it and I can, maybe I'm not supposed to share it with everybody yet.

[Percy likes people with similar traits, they're good ones.
But then he chuckles.]
I assure you, I can find my own trouble without anyone interfering.

[And until the forest physically throws him out he's going to keep going into it.]

There's nothing on this paper.

... I believe this parchment is keyed into you. I see nothing on it, but you clearly can.

[...hm...] Maybe it's written in invisible ink.

If it's invisible ink, why can you see it so easily?
