[ There is a lot he hasn't said, a lot that he doesn't even want to admit to himself, and how is he supposed to talk about any of that to anyone? If he can't even accept those parts of himself, why should anyone else?
Yet, he craves this – he wants someone to embrace even the worst parts of who he is. These are facets he can't bring himself to discuss even with Ashley. Percy kind of wants her around, after all, to the point where he's idly wondering where she is.

No worries! I, uh, had some time to make some snacks.
[ He put together a little platter of crackers, cheese, and meat slices! Wow!!! ]
