- xxxIn his dreamlike state, only seeming to catch glimpses of what was apparently his reality and what he could actually come to terms with, Percy heard the tall stranger mutter something about hitting his head and, with a distant look, gave a hum of numb agreeance; it made sense, now that he considered it, and the ash colored boy found himself unconsciously reaching a hand up to the back of his head as if to inspect for further injuries. He imagined he'd have noticed the pain had he truly left a dent in his skull, considering the pain that had bloomed in his shoulder upon first shifting it, but one could never be too certain. Especially in situations like such, where his senses seemed to be all over the charts. Sure, he could see just fine, but there seemed to be something a bit foggy about his hearing, and there was this offensive smell he just couldn't shake that vaguely reminded him of damp books and overripe compost.
Pulling his hand back and assessing it briefly, admittedly relieved to find it free from blood but hyperaware now of the dirt it harbored, Percy looked down at himself and felt the corners of his mouth twitch in sudden displeasure; while he was unlikely to frown, the sudden realization that his bright cerulean clothing was plastered in a brand new array of neutral-toned stains was certainly testing his usually cheery composure, his dislike for messes and appreciation for order at war.
Feeling suddenly uncomfortable in his attire, the material itchy on his skin, Percy lifted his attention back to the other male across from him at the reintroduction of the stranger's voice and felt himself growing flustered once more, his cheeks flushed and brows furrowed as he internally scolded himself and offered another round of apologies to the blonde "Ah, no! Honest. I swear on my heart, I'm not usually like this. Please, don't get the wrong idea." Shaking his hands about wildly as if to wave away all concern, feeling horrified at the impression he'd managed to leave on this poor passing stranger, Percy didn't seem to catch the other's playful intent and instead began to fret over how he could repair the damage he'd done to his image, offering up a smile in hopes of passing on his sincerity. "Apologies, once again. It really won't happen again. Not ever."
Ready to again offer a spew of apologies at the wince the boy gave following his sudden initiation of physicality, the other's comment only furthering his embarrassment and self-loathing, Percy pulled his hands back from the other and once more furrowed his brows as the stranger began to speak, his eyes widening as the words 'crash-landing' left the charismatic male's lips. As if then feeling the fog lift from his senses, the male finally took a look around at his surroundings and all but gaped, squeaking out a response after taking a moment to take the reality of it all in "Oh...crash landing? I just...I'm not too familiar with the planets of Astromenta, so I thought...well, I assumed..." Trailing off, his implications of I thought this was one of the other 11 planets, minus Capricorn or Aquarius clear as day, Percy then turned back to the other and offered a sheepish smile as he really let his prior ignorance set in "You aren't wrong about the smell, though; It's musty, loamy, and unusually offensive. I can sometimes be quite sensitive to scents, so I thought maybe it was just me. "
Seeming to gain some of his feign confidence at the honest smile and introduction offered by the other he now knew to be Ro, Percy offered an unusually bright smile of his own, nodding politely and returning the initiative eagerly "Ah, Percy! I'm an Aquarian. Or, well, from Aquarius, if that's easier. It's a pleasure." Looking around them as the other mentioned running into a Virgo, curiosity running through his veins, Percy internally wrestled with himself before turning back to Ro and once again opening up "There's others, then? You're all I've seen, so it's a bit of a relief to know that we aren't alone." Then, with a start, Percy once again spoke, multiplying in speed and only furthering his embarassment "Oh, not that there's anything wrong with you, of course! You're actually quite charming, and you've been very kind, and....well, i'd probably still be sitting in the dirt trying to figure this all out, so you've saved me half a lifetimes of worry, but...well, I should probably just shut up now."
