For half a minute, Percy stayed silent besides a hum. He watched Kallen out of the corner of his eye while trying not to look like he stared. Wasn't that a rather strong thing to say? But Percy wasn't strong. Finally he sighed and spoke. "That's probably the smart way to do it. Maybe it's because I can't put any faith in others or even myself that I need something else." He shook his head. God he was talking way too much. He let out a laugh, sounding very much forced. "Not that I'm a screw up like everyone says. But it's so much easier to blame some other fucker when things go to hell!" He just about choked on his false laughter. "Yeah. That's it...totally."

Ugh, so lame. He needed to get out of here quick or he'd fill up all this boredom with all sorts of chatter he'd never normally say.
