This is a little something I came up with.
Summary: Sometimes, Iris Messages appear at the most inconvenient times...
Awkward IM's Entry #1
Annabeth pulled out a drachma from her pocket. She was running low and had to remember to ask Chiron for some later. She grabbed her squirt gun, kept in case she needed to IM someone, and sprayed it into the sunlight. She threw the coin into the rainbow.
Oh goddess, accept my offering. Show me Percy Jackson, New York City, New York.
The mist shimmered and then Percy appeared. In the shower. Naked. Singing Firework by Katy Perry.
" 'Baby you're a firework…' hm hm hm AAHHH!"
"Percy?" Annabeth's face was on fire. "What are you doing exactly?"
"…. Showering…?" Percy looked down, his face bright red. He shifted his hands to cover his –
"Where you just singing Firework?"
"Umm… Maybe…"
"Really, Percy? Really?" Annabeth shook her head.
"Uh…Annabeth… this is kind of a bad time..."
"Really?" Annabeth raised an eyebrow. "So you don't want to see me?" She pouted.
"Well uh…I'm sort of NAKED here!"
"Oh. Right. Sorry."
"…"
"I guess I'll talk to you later then. Bye!"
Annabeth waved her had through the mist and Percy was gone.
Awkward IM's Entry #2
Percy was at camp feeling a bit lonely. He pulled a golden drachma out of his pocket and went over to the fountain in his cabin.
Oh goddess, accept my offering. Sally Jackson, New York City, New York.
The room Percy was looking at was dimly lit. He could barely make out anything…but the noise! His ears burned! There were moans and groans and tons of thrashing about.
"Uh…Mom? Is this a bad time?"
The noise stopped.
"Percy? What the – "
"I'll take that as a 'yes' then," Percy said awkwardly.
"Well…I uh – we were – Uh…We were kind of in the middle of something…" said Paul.
"Yeah. Ok. I guess we'll talk later."
Percy slashed the IM with his hand, breaking the connection.
Back in the apartment, Paul turned to Sally.
"Well. He kind of ruined the mood, now didn't he?"
