Time: Same Time

"Aren't you a cutie pie!" Piper cooed, playing with her puppy as Percy stared at them, unable to keep the emotion out of his shining, dark sea-green eyes.

"Will you leave Rio for a moment?" -Yes, the white, with a hint of brown, Labrador's name was Rio- "You've been coddling him ever since we got back. He will die at this rate."

"Shush, Percy. Don't say something so ominous." She reprimanded, holding up her puppy in front of his face. "Look at this. How can you resist this face? What sort of cruel, heartless creature are you?"

The infectious smile that she wore finally caught up to him, making Percy break out in a wide grin as he took Rio in his arms.

The puppy immediately made itself comfortable in his arms, feeling the warmth as he held him against the bare skin of his chest, his heart melting with a dangerous cuteness overload.

The impossibly soft fur of the Labrador, carefully and painstakingly groomed to perfection by Piper, tickled his skin as he coddled the puppy which would undoubtedly become his beloved, furry son. The small, wet snout pressed against his chest in a cute display of affection, the small, pink tongue of the infant canine lolling out of its mouth as it panted in the tropical heat of Ogygia. Impossibly soft, flappy ears were scratched lovingly by the Dark god, before he trailed his fingers to give Rio a good tummy scratch.

An electronic beep brought him out of his thoughts as he looked up, to see Piper switching on the air conditioner. Shooting her a thankful smile, he strolled towards the small, fluffy crib set up for Rio.

Piper hummed as she too, came to stand beside him, overlooking the crib. "I thought why not switch on the AC? It's always on at night anyway, else I can't sleep in this heat. Besides," she purred seductively at him, her nimble fingers tracing his obliques. "I think things are about to get heated anyways."

Percy shot her a grin, before returning his attention to Rio, placing a small, loving kiss on the puppy's furry forehead. "Mama and Papa love you, little one. Good night, sweet dreams."

Tucking him in the warm mass of fluffy blankets, Percy watched him cutely burrow into the warm crib.

It had been a lot of paperwork, but Percy had finally managed to get them all, and now, the big mansion of Ogygia seemed a lot fuller, with animals of all kinds, wild or domestic. The wildlife, albeit of the small kind, mixed with the dogs and cats to invade their home, and now, everyone seemed to have a dog or cat or bird or squirrel of their own.

All except Percy, of course. Not that he did not have any pet, his pets were of the.... more dangerous kind, for lack of a better term. Fully grown crocodiles joined equally large, if not larger, sharks in a hidden swimming pool, with a small forest creeping with monitor lizards, snakes and reptiles of all kinds. He had even managed to get a Komodo dragon!

He shivered at the thought of the explosion that was going to happen if anybody got wind of the secret room.

Shaking himself free from his musings of if he had a hidden title of lord of reptiles, Percy snapped his fingers, making Piper look up curiously.
