[ Recon of a place includes checking out the local phone directory, scanning for any name that might be of interest to him. No sign of the Captain yet, or any of the Society, but there is one name that holds his gaze for longer than a second.
No telling if it's actually who he thinks it is, but no harm in checking. ]
Are you sure Wales will be able to function without your royal presence there?
[ Hi ... who the f*ck is this. He's learned to use the device as a result from some investigation and consultation from Siegfried, but he still doesn't have any ease or speed with it comes to typing. Given his need to show a dignified image, he tries his best to type properly, and this only slows down the process. ]
You're one of the few people here who know of Wales. [ So that piques Percival's interest. ] But when talking to someone new, you should introduce yourself first. Don't you know any basic manners?
My brother is more than capable of running the country on his own. [ Except for when he tried to open the Otherworld but that's behind them now. ]
[ He knows about the 'read' ticks now and he was starting to wonder if he's being ignored (wow!!!) but that is ... not the case, so the annoyance he feels becomes unwarranted. ]
Eustace. Are you an Erune, by any chance?
I am with Siegfried. He says he has been here for a month and a half.
[ That doesn't answer any of his questions but in respect for the captain, Percival doesn't hold that over Eustace's head. ]
Not since finding myself here. I can only hope she is back home, where she's supposed to be, and hasn't also found herself trapped in this lecherous city.
Though, it pains me that I cannot be there to keep my vassals from harm.
[ Okay, this has him shook because the Grandcypher is a huge ass ship. How did he miss that? The real reason is that his RPer doesn't pay attention but let's go with 'he's been wandering the woods far away so far'.
He's definitely not going to admit that he missed that, but it's easy to infer from the long pause that revelation brings. ]
While you're right to think that, I am now concerned over how the crew will travel back at home without the ship. I'm hoping they are not stranded somewhere right now.
I suppose. [ Time for Percy to make a long list of questions he's going to annoy the Augur with and handwave it all because i don't want to bother the mods.
A pause. Since Eustace is the only other person he knows from home, it might be a good idea for them to at least get somewhat acquainted (???). For practical reasons, of course. For the Captain's sake he does want to make sure a fellow crew member is safe and well. (Or so goes Percival's tsundere justifications.) ]
So, how are you faring then? Do you know of the expectations thrust upon us yet?

Planning on enjoying your vacation then?

Who is this? State your name already. I want to know who I'm speaking to before I say anything.

This is Eustace. [ That's all he's saying. ] Is there anyone else here you recognize?

Neither of you have seen the Captain, correct?
[ Was there another question?? Sorry. I continue to play characters that only reply to what they want. ]

[ Though....in this one respect, he'll agree with Percy. It sucks major ass to not be around in case something happens to the crew. ]
It's here though. The Grandcypher.
[ He doesn't understand how it works either. ]

I see. Have you been on board it?
no subject
Not yet. I'd prefer not to without the Captain's permission.
[ Also he can't fly it so what's the point. ]
no subject
[ da fuq bro??? ]
no subject
You'd have to ask the Augur about that. There's no point theorizing pointlessly on our own.

[ Hope Percy didn't want it sugar-coated. ]
no subject
How do you feel about that then?
no subject
[ Just wondering. ]
no subject
[ It's an empty threat unless Eustace wants to spar but he's clutching his pearls right now. ]
no subject
You won't make it very far here if that's how you plan to respond to every proposition sent your way.
no subject
[ Wait a second. He's so shook he even forgets to put a period after his sentence. That's a very high level of shook. ]
... That was a proposition?!?
no subject
Also: ]
I doubt I would suit your exacting standards.
[ And he's not about to waste his time. ]
no subject
[ He doesn't actually think Eustace is beneath him but he's being a bitch right now because Eustace made him fluster. ]
no subject
I'll alert the two of you if I learn anything else then.
[ Eustace, out! ]

[ can't believe you would do this to me ........ how could u end the thread ]
