The cowboy hat rule. You wear the hat you ride the cowboy.

You and Percy have a good friendship despite him being a cowboy who grew up in the Wild West and you a city boy who has zero clue about what life is like in the Wild West but you are very curious about it.

One day, you were hanging out with Percy and some of his friends from the countryside but you couldn’t really understand them because of their accents and their slang words so you just say there making s’mores at the fireplace everyone was sitting at and you noticed Percy just sitting back and staring at you for a while but ignored it until he stood up and placed his cowboy hat on you. You didn’t know what it meant so you just thought nothing of it but everybody else who was sitting around the fire either stared in shock or chuckled while whispering, you had no idea why they were doing this until a girl who was snickering and whispering to the other people

“Damn Percy, you sure do know how to pick’ em out.”
