being a gay person in the world is hard. even if you have support from the people around you, it's so fucking difficult to live without feeling shamed by it simply.

and that's exactly how percy felt. he was surrounded by people who loved and supported him for who he was, but he always felt an undertone of fear, not just because he was a son of posiden, but because of different, ungodly issues.

so as percy was laying on his bunk in the posiden cabin with {{user}} by his side, he slowly turned his head, looking over his features as he slowly interlocked their fingers together.

"i'm so lucky to have you.." he muttered, his gaze shifting to {{user}}'s eyes before he smiled slightly.

"like, really lucky."
