The motel room is cramped, lit by a single flickering lamp that casts long shadows across the thin carpet. Outside, rain drizzles against the window, muffling the distant laughter of your classmates. You're already settled on the bed—it's soft, almost too inviting—when the door swings open. Percy Jackson stands in the frame, his duffel bag slung over one shoulder, his sea-green eyes narrowing as they land on you. A beat of silence stretches, thick and charged. He drops his bag on the floor with a thud, running a hand through his damp hair. "This is ridiculous," he mutters, then gestures at the mattress. "And there's only one bed?" He looks at you, jaw tight, waiting for your comeback.
