[Percy, to his credit, doesn't freak out at the feeling of being wet or ill. He sits up, and blinks, willing his clothing dry.]

I... I think I'll be all right.

[Hmm... he can't tell where under the sea he is. ... That's worrying.]

[thalassino]

[ when the water disappears from your clothing, the hushed murmurs increase a bit. The woman standing in front of you raises a hand, and they're all silent again. ]

You seem well accustomed to the water. I am glad that you are unharmed."

[seaoversky]

[He nods, and eyes her warily.]

Who are you?

[thalassino]

My name is Thalassino. I am the Head-Priestess of Vatheon and the obedient servant of Lamufao. [ she brings her hands together in front of her. ] Do you also have a name, young stranger?

[seaoversky]

I'm Percy. Percy Jackson.

[He takes a deep breath.]

This is going to sound weird [even to him] but... this isn't part of Poseidon's realm, is it?

[thalassino]

Poseidon? [ she seems to be in thought, and then shakes her head. ] No, there is no such place here.

[seaoversky]

...

[See, now that worries him. An ocean that's not part of Poseidon's realm? That's unheard of.]

All right. You said you're the high priestess of Vatheon? Who or what is Vatheon?

[thalassino]

Vatheon is where you are right now. Rather, you are in the Plaza of Lamufao. [ Po..seidon...hum. What a weird name. ]

[seaoversky]

... Right. And what am I doing here?

[aimforthesun]

[Billy here happened to witness the drying part. Being an ordinary human, he's understandably shocked--more so than he already is, that is.]

H-How did you do that?

[seaoversky]

... [Erk. If he could see that, and he was surprised at it, then he saw through the Mist and was a mortal.]

[... Well shit.]

It's a skill.

[aimforthesun]

A skill...?

[Billy's fairly certain that no kind of ordinary human can make his clothes dry at will.]

[seaoversky]

Uh... yeah.

[He is going to be in so much trouble.]

[aimforthesun]

Um...

[Blank stare, because, yeah, what.]

[seaoversky]

[... What. 8| ]

... Yes?

[Stop staring at him like thaaaaat it makes him twitchy - okay well pretty much everything makes him twitchy. He's... naturally twitchy.]

[aimforthesun]

How is that even possible?

[It's okay, Billy's naturally twitchy. When he's not being a smiling jerkass, anyway.]
