She. Didn't. Answer.
Why? I was wondering that myself, considering she was denying the Mchizzle.
So, I called her again.
This time, it came through.
"Hey, Sunshine! You didn't pick up?"
"Sorry, Repair Boy." She smiled at that one. We used to play games like that on Ogygia. Cue the sad music. She continued,"I was making a phone call."
"YOURE CHEATING ON ME?"
"No! It was Bob Banana. He requested that I didn't eat him, so I told him I must."
"Babe, I think you've lost it. Completely and utterly lost it."
Her cheeks flared, but the flames died down, and her gaze drifted to the floor,"I miss you, Leo."
"I miss you more."
"Not true."
"Mega true."
"Lier lier, holy Hera your pants are on fire!" She pointed at the screen. I looked down to see my pants smoldering.
"Agh! Fire! Fire!"
"Engaging Fire Sequence." One of my old machines rattled.
Sprinklers cast water down on the room, while I ran around screaming my head off the grown man way. Like a tiny girl.
"PANTS ON FIRE!"
Calypso was dying from laughter on the other end, though I could tell she was still concerned about my pants. I mean, who wouldn't be?
They're my pants.
A gorilla burst into my room.
Literally.
A gorilla burst in my room. Well, the engine room but whatever!
"ZHANG! PANTS. ON. FIRE!"
The gorilla quickly changed form into a teenage boy. Just your average Teenage Mutant Ninja Gorilla Frank Zhang.
Followed by Frank was Jason, Piper and Percy, who was lmao'ing, as you modern personaires might say.
"Leo? You look hysterical." Percy gasped. Then he fell on the floor laughing again.
"Aqua Boy! C'mon! Help Uncle Leo!" I was still running around the room.
Jason took in the scene.He noticed the current IM with the dying Calypso.
"Oh. Hey Cally!" He waved.
Calypso did the only thing she could do in the same state as Percy. She waved back.
Piper charm spoke Percy out of his laughing gas, and the son of Poseidon quickly broke the water main on the ship. An easy fix, for a pro like me.
Percy moved his arms the whole length of the ceiling, then slammed them down, along with more water to add to the sprinklers. Not necessarily clean water, but enough to drench my pants.
Percy flipped up a peace sign, then ran out of the room, crying with laughter. Frank followed, utterly confused as to why bathroom water just found a home on his head.
Piper had to drag Jason out, who was gawking at me, and Calypso, who was still laughing.
Once we were alone again, I turned to my machines.
"Fire sequence, deactivated."
Festus squealed, and the sprinkles shut off.
"Sunshine?"
"Valdez?"
I looked at the floor,"I miss you, too."
