Headcannon

Percy speaks fluent Italian and curses in Italian whenever he's angry or frustrated so that Molly can't understand and get mad at him even though it's pretty obvious that he's cursing.

"So, you and Percy, are you guys like, a couple?", Angelina asked Oliver before taking a gulp of her butterbeer.

"What? I- No! No, I mean- he's my best friend, that's it."

Angelina gave him a look.

"I mean it! Don't look at me like that!"

"But you like him, don't you?", she asked with raised eyebrows.

"I- Yeah. But you can't say anything! We'll been friends since first year, if he doesn't like me back -which he probably won't- our friendship could be ruined. I- I don't wanna risk that..."

"I get that, but what's life without a little risk? Also, I'm pretty sure he likes you back."

"There's no need to comfort me. I'm a grown arse adult, I can handle rejection."

"I'm not trying to comfort you; I've seen the way he looks at you, and the fact that he lets you fix his glasses. One time Molly tried to do that, he went as red as his hair and started murmuring about how 'he's not a child anymore' and that 'he can fix his own glasses'."

"Well, we live together, it's normal that we've grown comfortable with each other."

"Doesn't that say something to you? I mean, you live together, you have two pets together, you join each other's family for supper every other weekend. Alicia and I knew we liked each other way before any of those things; and we don't even have pets."

"Ollie, I'm home!"

"Hey Perce-! Did something happen? You look... sad."

"Nothing. I'm just tired. Tough day at work.", Percy smiled tiredly at Oliver.

"Okay... I've made,", he looked at he's palm. "... reekio- rikiolee, al ragu."

Percy held back a laugh. "It's 'riccioli al ragù'. The Italian language just committed suicide upon hearing that pronunciation."

"Hey! You are the one who speaks Italian, if you want me to pronounce things correctly, then teach me."

"Maybe tommorow. For now, why don't we go eat some 'rikiolee al ragu?"
