Percy was a little sick now. He ran around the house because he had nothing to do. The house felt a bit more cozy with Percy in it. Happy enjoyed his company too, because sometimes he would get bored and get Percy to talk to him. Tony, he was still worried, because everything about the adoption and all wasn't over yet. Tony almost had to go to the court everyday. But he was happy to do it. Morgan would call him everyday, excited to meet her brother. (or going to be brother, but she was still young to understand how it worked.) Pepper would talk to him too, and to Percy also, and for some reason they both loved each other. Probably because Pepper had a little boy now and Percy had a mom.

It was a cold day and Tony was sitting in his favorite chair in the living room, trying to get some work done. Percy was on the floor, doing anything that could entertain him. Tony looked up occasionally when he heard thuds that sounded like someone falling.

"Mr. Stark!" Percy said, running to him.

"What?" Tony asked, in the same excited voice as Percy.

"I'm hungry!" He announced. "Oh I know what I want to eat. No I don't. Where did you get that vase from? We had one just like before I broke it. Mom was really mad. Did you know that-"

"Whoa kid, slow down," Tony requested. "what do you want to eat?"

Percy tapped his fingers around everything and walked about the whole place. "how about a sandwich? My favorite is just grilled cheese. I don't like chicken. They scare me. but i like chicken nuggets, because CHICKEN NUGGETS!"

Tony laughed. Whenever Percy got super bored, his ADHD would kick in. Tony was used to it now, but it was really cute whenever Percy started talking really fast because he stumbled over his words, but didn't care because he was too busy talking.

Tony stood to make Percy his sandwich. Percy was entertaining himself by watching what was happening outside the window. Then he got mystified with the fog from his breath and started drawing on it. When Tony was halfway through the sandwich Percy came in the kitchen, pouting and looking really cute, his eyes sad.

"The magic drawings keep disappearing." He said. "they're rude." 

"The magic drawings need time to relax," Tony told him, "and so do you."

"I do?" Percy asked. "what do you do to relax? Relax. Huh. It sounds like medicine."

"Okay," Tony said picking Percy up and taking him to the couch. "sit here." Tony ordered strictly. "Don't move."

Percy whimpered. His feet started moving like he was anxious about something.

"Ah, ah," Tony warned. "you moved. Don't move, and I'll get you apple juice."

Percy whimpered more. It was weird how he could transform from a hyperactive 5 year old to a little puppy with sad eyes.

Tony went and made a few more sandwiches. All the while he didn't hear a single sound. Finally, he went outside, carrying a little tray with sandwiches and two glasses of apple juice.

"I moved!" Percy admitted, sadly. "Sorry!"

"Did you try not to?" Tony asked.

Percy nodded his head so fast, Tony feared it might fall off.
