"This is great." Percy said, shoveling more blue candy into his mouth. "I had this friend, when I was young, whose parents made him wait to eat his candy until they had checked it for razor blades."
The camp went silent. Everyone looked up at Percy.
"What? Razor blades?" Leo said. Suddenly, as if in a choreographed movement, the group ran toward Will.
"Will! Will! I just swallowed a tiny knife."
"What?" Will asked.
"Percy said there were razor blades in our Halloween candy." Leo said.
"No I didn't," Percy said. "I simply said something about my childhood friend, Mark, whose parents checked all his Halloween candy for razor blades."
"Dammit Percy! You know how suggestible these idiots are!" Will said, gesturing to the group. "Now I have to check everyone for razor blades in her stomach. He turned to the group. "Y'all realize that you would be dead if you swallowed any razor blades?"
"I've survived though worse." Nico said from beside Will. Everyone jumped, seemingly not noticing the short boy until he had spoken. "No, I technically died then. I'm just stirring the pot." He shrugged. "It's Halloween. This is when my power is strongest."
"Okay? Well, anyway," Piper continued to what Leo was saying a moment before, "You're going to need to scan all of our stomachs to make sure we're safe."

"Okay, Leo. No sharp objects in your stomach. However," Will said, holding up a picture and pointing to a spot, "You have eaten nothing but tofu enchiladas and Cheetos for six days. Eat a vegetable." Leo looked scandalized.
"How dare you? Fonzies are not Cheetos!"
"Leo. Go eat a vegetable."

"Piper, you look fine. Next!" Will shouted out the door. Jason walked in.
"Jason, you're usually so sensible. You do know that if you had swallowed anything, your organs would be sliced up, right?" Will asked, setting up the next scan.
"Yeah." Jason admitted, "I know. But I figured if I came in here you and I could gossip about your and Nico's relationship."
"Okay. Well, I'm dating a hot gremlin, neither of us are going to talk about our relationship, and you need to go now."
"But you haven't even check-" "Go."

"Piper, I need to ask. Did you actually think you ate something or were you just trying to ruin my night?" Will asked, putting away the equipment. Piper shrugged. "I was high on smarties. I wasn't thinking straight."
"I'm never thinking straight but I know not to spread a camp-wide panic. After Leo left, he told everyone how I insulted his dietary choices and they asked why. He told them, so then they wanted to get checked, too. I saw some messed up stuff, Piper." He turned to look back at her, but she was gone.

Frustrated, Will turned back to the machine. "Aaaah! Sweet slippery salamanders!" He screamed. Nico was standing there, appearing the moment Will looked away.
"Gods, Neeks. You can't just appear behind he like that." The taller boy said, trying to stop hyperventilating.
"Sorry. But to be fair, I didn't know I was going to appear behind you."
"Why are you here? Not that I'm complaining, I love when you're here, but did you need something?" Will asked, calm once again.
"I need to be with my awesome boyfriend." Nico wrapped his arms around Will and kissed him. "Also, Leo's dressed as a sexy cat and I don't want to see that."
