DISCLAIMER: I don't own PJO, Rick does. Go tell him to complete the Heroes of Olympus.
"Can I ask you something?"
"YOU JUST DID!" she always wanted to shout. Honestly, could they not pay even the slightest attention to their grammar?
Whenever she heard that, she felt like plunging her knife on the source's throat and making sure they feel incapable of saying it again. She tried to deal with it of course, but it got on her nerves. Something like "May I ask you something personal?" would be just great but "Can I ask you something?" was enough to drive her crazy. It would've been okay if the question wasn't the most common one there is, and there was also the fact that she was the one person who everybody deemed suitable to ask the aforementioned question.
She wanted to rip her hair out sometimes and she didn't even know why. What she did know was that no force in this world world would make her tolerate-
"Can I ask you something?"
"Anything, Percy."
