|Percy was looking at his little slip of paper that showed his room number, and secretly hoping that he had a roommate who can understand ASL in any form, and not a limited way of communication through pen and paper, which he always had in case of people needed to communicate with him. He stopped to look at the numbers of the apartments in front of him| '98..99..100..101' |he perked up and gave a small smile.| 'Ahah!, my room number..'

|Percy braced himself and tried to shake off the anxiety forming, and gave brief knock, hoping it would catch the attention of his roomate inside, when he waited for the door to open, tightening his grip on his slip of paper|

|Percy gave a small nervous smile, and studied the person standing in the door, noticing his surprised expression, which made him a bit more nervous to give a greeting, grabbing his pen and notepad in case Simon didn't understand what he was saying| 'H-Hi, I'm Percy. I'm your new roommate!...it's nice to meet you' he signed in ASL, his gaze going to his lips to know what they say as a reply.|

|Percy stood there and blinked at Simon, his eyes widened| 'You..You understand me?'

{mind you ' means in sign language, or ASL {American Sign language} and " means when he writes on paper}

[brb, i gtg play with my sister in the sand for a bit- ;m; ]

[bacccckk :D] Percy: *he gave a big ol' smile, brightening up, and paused, his head tilting to the side* 'I- wait. why do they call you trash bag? You anything but a trash bag, |he gave a pout of unimproved taste| Trash bags aren't pretty..'

[ah, It was okay, we played in the sand for a bit, which was messy as hell -m-, my little sister has one of those baby jeep things which she doesn't now how to drive, so I drive it and look ridiculous af cause I'm to big for it, and drove like a maniac.]

Percy: .... 'I don't tell lies or tell flattery for no reason. But, You. are. pretty. deal. with. it. Now, can I set my bags down please, and get situated inside?--' |His cheeks turned a soft pink, and still had his head tilted to the side some, still in the hall of the apartment complex, holding his 3 main bags|

[ but oh yes, it was fun]

|Percy gave a pause of disappointment and didn't understand if he did anything wrong, but followed and closed the door after him and went to follow Simon to his room, and paused just outside his doorway, taping his shoulder| 'Simon.'

Percy: 'I'm still new here, and I don't know where everything is -m- please don't leave without saying anything-...could you show me around please?'

|Percy noticed the tears and gave a concerned look, and gently grabbed the hand Simon used to wipe the random tears from his eye| 'Si-Simon, a-are you alright?'

[awh] |Percy searched Simons face, still looking with concern. Blushing as well, still keeping Simons hand in his, giving a small smile| Percy: ... '..okay'

[-quietly fanboying-] 'Ah, I'm sorry--' |Percy didn't notice his flusterment but took it as him crossing an unwanted line of personal boundary, trying not to look hurt.| '..Let's go find my room..?'

[it's all good, mate. I had to take care of things anyway] |Percy looked behind him and noticed that there indeed was a room there.| 'Oh' |he gave a soft laugh, which seemed to a bit disoriented.| 'Well, that's easy to remember. I'm going to drop of my stuff, and get situated, flicker my lights or stomp on the floor or just stop by if you need anything' |he gave a small smile, and turned away to drop off his things, and such|

[-hug- ^w^] |Percy continued to set down his bags, resulting in a somewhat loud thump of them hitting the floor and looked around the room, biting his bottom lip thoughtfully as he started to plan about how his new room would look like, and what would go where|

[oofies, I'm sorry ;m; but like no cap, I honestly feel what Simon is experiencing] |Percy started to unpack and design his room up, thinking how his new life with a new person will go, and how this apartment is accessible to a deaf person, but shrugged it off, and unconsciously think of the contact he had earlier with Simon, and turned a pink, getting distracted from his unpacking|

[AwHHHH this IS sO PrEcIoUS aNd WhOlESomEEE] |Percy was the same, and sat on the floor, his face a blooshing mess hiding in his hands, his knees loosely close to his chest|

|Percy decided he was bored, and tried to calm down from his now flustered appearance, and decided Simon was good company, and walked to his room, in his socks because shoes are uncomfortable and y u c k y|

|Percy widened his eyes in panic, and rushed over to his side, first checking if he was breathing and had a stable pulse, and trying not to panic|

|Percy pulls the pillow away, and checks his pulse again, ready to give mouth to mouth if needed, his panic rising| [gtg to bed, mate. gonna cont tomorrow]

[ w h y. they were making p r o g r e s s ] |Percy started to take off Simon's shirt so he can have better access to his chest, and started chest compression and mouth to mouth|

|Percy felt his heart beat again, and pulled away, turning red as well but shoved him.| 'What the hell were you thinking?! You scared the living shit out of me, Simon!' [I gtg to bed, I ll cont. tomorrow :p]

[h o w d y :D] |Percy looked guilty and didn't mean to make the babey chiold to cry and softly wiped his tears away| 'I-I'm sorry, Simon. It's okay..shhh,shhh,shhh, its alright, I'm just glad your safe..'

|Percy gently hugged back, now petting his hair|

[awwhh] |Percy nudged his neck, enjoying the warmth, not noticing Simon'd now drowsy state| ^w^

|Percy felt Simon's breathing slow indicating he was asleep, and carefully drew back and gently picked him up and set him onto his bed|

Percy: I- uhm.. |He gave a surprised pause, and tried to gently pry him away, which seemed to not work| . . . |defeated sigh, and decided it wasn't avoidable, so he gently laid down with him|

|Percy still was lightly holding onto Simon, messing with his hair, dozing off himself|

|Percy gave a small smile and cuddled him closer, after falling asleep himself|

|Percy still be asleep, giving a soft snore|

|Percy jolted awake, and didn't recognize where he was, then noticed Simon freaking out, and freaked out as well, blushing no other|

Percy: 'I-I don't know?! Your the one who's not deaf, is there something wrong?'

|Percy gave a hug, and nodded in understatement|

|Percy signed into his back| 'It's okay, It's okay'

|Percy pulled away, and looked at Simon. His head tilting, giving a smile as well|

|Percy gave a smile, and softly touched his lips to his forehead|

|Percy gave a sigh, also bored| 'I'm Bored. You?'

|Percy stuck out his tongue bored, blushing some| 'What do you want to do, then love?'

|Percy drew back from the hug and gave a teasing pout| 'Well that's not very helpful of you'

|Percy thought for a minute| 'Hmmm...Home stay movie?'

|Percy gave a smile and gotten up, grabbing Simons hand in the process in excitement and lead them both to the living room, plopping them on the couch, giving a laugh|

|Percy shifted in a comfortable position for both of them, and signed into his hand, perking up| 'Do you have any extra blankets and pillows?'

[Awwwh, that's the cutest thing-] |Percy shimmied around a bit, more excited.| 'Do you want to build a blanket fort--'

|Percy lifted his arms in a way to say **** yEaH, smiling even bigger|

|Percy gave a laugh, but helped him up| 'Are you okay, Simon?'

|Percy gave a loving kiddish smile| 'Are you sure?'

|Percy raised his brow and gave a look of mischievousness, turning and grabbing an near pillow, playfully hitting simon with it|

[smol people protection] |Percy continued to playfully throw the pillows|

[indeed. become a couch troll, lmao] |Percy laughed and followed, with a pillow hidden behind his back|

|Percy frowned at the door, unsure what to do|

[Doors be big weakness] Percy: |tentatively pokes the door, and steps inside, his pillow still hidden. Trying to be as quiet as possible as he tried to find his roomate |

|Percy gave a sigh, unknowing what to do in this predicament, deciding he was never really good at hide n' seek as a child either. He gave a knock onto the floor|

Percy: |he gave another knock, and closed his eyes in concentration| ,,,

|Percy perked up and grabbed the hidden pillow, he smiled| 'There you are Simon'

|Percy didn't do anything but just hold his pillow to his chest, his eyes now open| 'I'm bored now..'

|Percy gave a small nod| 'okay'
