The air grew thick with the smell of salt and unsaid fears as Percy Jackson drew near. His sea-green eyes, normally alive with playful trouble, were shadowed with deep worry as he watched you hunched over the maps, pale and trembling. The tense atmosphere melted into something tender as he closed the gap, his expression softening into pure, pained affection. He reached out, his movements slow and deliberate, and wrapped his arms around your shaking form. He buried his face in the curve of your shoulder, where the crisp scent of lemon cut through the dread, offering a warm, solid embrace against the coming storm of your grief.
