[ eggsy stands a better chance he probably thinks. percy doesn't plan on using powers for training with him, not unless asked. leaning on his abilities with water isn't going to help him keep sharp at swordplay or unarmed combat; it'd be kind of unfair to eggsy; and, most importantly, where's the fun in it if he's not really testing himself against eggsy's ability? ]
Oh, wow, thanks. That goes both ways, you know. You know how to reach me.
[ the devices, he means. he's staying with a friend, so that's a better way to reach him than an address. ]
Sorry, force of habit. [ clarifying that it's just him and the dog instead of him and harry, that is. ] Used to live with someone who didn't love visitors.
[ on account of all the gadgetry hidden around the house... ]
[used to live with someone. eggsy might just mean that they moved out, or he moved out, but percy remembers peggy telling him about how people could just fall back asleep, end up back in stasis with no warning. it's an unsettling enough thought that he tries not to dwell on it it much. ]
What breed? [ and since the half-blood's out of the bag: ] Not going to lie, someone I knew back home had gold and silver lie detector dogs, so I'm hoping yours is...like, regular.
Don't bloody remind me. No proper fast food anywhere. [ oh, he's fully moaning about this now. ] I haven't had a chippy in a million years. Tried to get Roman to cook one up, but I don't think he understands. Keeps giving me, like, grilled fish with this weird looking sauce.

eggsy tries not to laugh. ]
He's a pug. [ nope, he's laughing. ] No word on if he has superpowers yet, but maybe one day he'll start talking and casting spells.
no subject
Don't even joke, [ he warns. ] It starts out as a joke, and then you find out it's possible, because why wouldn't it be.
no subject
[ he's just not on that level... but maybe other dogs are. maybe. ]
I'll take your word for it otherwise.
i hate what a cute image that is
Yeah, well, the dogs I'm talking about were, like, robots, so you're probably safe.
can't help but be ic
[ laughtrack.mp3 ]
Bit too fantasy-land down here, innit?
[ then again, percy's old school mythical and yet... ]
oh my god
[ percy spends a lot of time dealing with ye olde mythical, but at the end of the day he always comes home to modern manhattan. ]
I haven't seen a single cheeseburger since coming down here. You'd think someone could open up a magical McDonald's or something.
;)
[ wah wah. ]

Maybe you need to explain it in more detail. Like, make sure he knows exactly what it is. I mean, isn't he an alien or something?
[ MAYBE ROMAN ISN'T BRITISH EITHER!! maybe eggsy needs to make a manual of british lingo t b h....... ]
no subject
Or a robot. Or a robot alien. [ he sighs. ] Maybe I'll give it a go if I feel like testing my stomach.
[ and his patience ]
no subject
[ he's thinking of battlestar galactica. points for effort..... ]
no subject
Nothing ever ends well for the humans. [ it's said off-hand, without gravity. he clears his throat. ]
Right, reckon my supervisor'll be in to check on my progress in five, so I'll catch you later, Perce.
[ why does percy need a nickname the same length as his actual name that might already be a nickname??? ]
