[The fond look and head shake loosens something inside Percy that he didn't realize was tense and he takes a quiet breath in with another nod and a slight smile of his own. It will be easier to face his own demons if he has a friend with him. He moves to slowly follow Vax keeping his step as light as he can and trying not to look for his own Manifestation. He knows it is there somewhere, ignoring it seems the best course of action for now. It wouldn't do to cause them more problems. He certainly has enough guilt on his shoulders regarding the twins as it is.]

Hopefully once we are hidden we can find an unlocked door to hide behind for a few hours.

[Percy doesn't sound optimistic about their chances. These creatures seem to find him just before he can let his guard down even the slightest bit and the wear and tear of however long it's been since the fog arrived is starting to be felt by the human gunslinger.]
