(Yeah, Percy saw the beauty in people too. He had seen the beauty in them since arriving here. And it wasn't just an aesthetic thing either. There were good people in this place. He had met some, Gyro included, and it gave him some serious hope on the whole thing. Especially whenever he started thinking about stuff like the caste system and the sexual culture of the place.
Percy was used enough to people staring at Blackjack that he doesn't seem to mind Gyro's constant looking. Even back home with people who were used to magical things would find Blackjack beautiful to look at. He was stunning creature. While Valkyrie had been clearly lonely, it was also painfully obvious to Percy that the horse was still happy. It sucked for him not having other horses, absolutely, but Gyro was a real good owner of Valkyrie. The horse was healthy and pleasant. When he'd saved Blackjack, it had been obvious right away that he wasn't happy with Luke as a master. That sort of thing always was. Same thing with the zebra. Animals had a way of speaking when they felt traumatized.
Aw no worries, no worries, man. Just some jack show about girly ponies and weird hair and pink and blue and all. Nah it looks good on you! Really does I couldn't pull that off none nope no way. Makes plenty sense. My mane goes all flat like when we fly if I go real fast. The boss doesn't ride me into battle anyway.)
Could be. I've got no idea why Blackjack sounds like an Italian mobster, honestly. All his buds do too so maybe it's a pegasus thing. Maybe the way their accents work is different than how ours work.
(He's barely a scientist on the subject but he doesn't want Gyro to feel any worse for having his horse alone either. It wasn't the guy's fault and it really could be true.)
Oh. He's like this Australian nature documentary person and America's only reference to an Australian accent.
(It's real nice, real gorgeous. Stretches out the whole body then you get on them currents and ride the wind. Birds don't bother me none. I suspect it's either to do with boss or the fact that I'm bigger or maybe cause I don't bother them none. Boss don't weigh much but neither do I. I feel him more when I walk than fly.)
Yeah sure, that'll work. Once we get out somewhere open Blackjack will have no problem flying alongside Valkyrie.
(He wishes there was a way to fly them all up but he was the son of Poseidon, not Zeus. He slips himself up onto Blackjack without a sound and Blackjack whinnies excitedly. The horse clearly enjoyed flying with Percy.)
