"What's your name? You have some interesting ideas written in here." He grinned, only slightly teasing the other boy.

Henry barely looked up at Leo, face bright red.
"H-Henry," he mumbled. Fucking hell. This entire situation was so embarrassing… He buried his face in his arms again.

"Well Henry, it is nice to meet you. I'd like to know, is there a hardware store nearby? I'd love to see the types of things they have here." Leo responded, taking out a lollipop from his tool belt and putting it in his mouth before taking out another and offering it to Henry.

Henry peaked out from his arms when Leo spoke to him again, nodding.
"Uh, yes, it's on Fourth Street downtown." He hesitated a moment, then accepted the lollipop offered to him.

"Would you mind taking me there? I only moved here two weeks ago so I'm not very familiar with these streets." He smiled and turned back to his table sliding Henry's book back to him.

"I- sure, yeah… After school?" Henry gratefully took his book back. Everything was happening so fast, he was in a sort of daze by now.

(Do you want to just skip to there? Also, what is going to happen? Can Henry see through the mist? Is he also a demigod?)

"Sounds great!" He smiled and accepted the sheet from the teacher who had been glaring at him.

(aaaa it's been so long since I've read the books, I'm…. Perhaps just for the sake of the rp we say they can?)

Henry had spent most of the day in his daze, and when he wasn't in classes with Leo, it was easy to tell himself that nothing had actually happened. That his favorite character of all time have just shown up randomly one day.
That, of course, changed when school was over, and it was time to take Leo to the hardware store.

(Ok, maybe after they get attacked, he is able to see through the mist)

Leo walked outside of the school, arms halfway between a stretch and a dance move. He spotted Henry and ran over to him, waving manically. "Hey!"

(great!)

Henry looked over when someone called out to him. Oh yeah. He was going to casually bring his favorite book character to a hardware store. How had he forgotten.
"Hey," Henry said, a lot quieter than Leo.

"I get the feeling you don't want to do this." He shrugged and tool out a few nuts and bolts from his tool belt and started making something with them.

"What?" Henry shook his head quickly. "No, not at all! I just… I wasn't really expected anything like this today."

"A fictional character who isn't so fiction anymore, eh?" He grinned and put the bolts and nuts away, clapping his hands. "Shall we?"

"I- yeah." Henry started walking, leading Leo away from the school.

Leo started walking while attacking Henry with questions. He was almost like Rachel when she first met Percy on the Dam.

Henry answered Leo's questions as best he could.
"Hold on, can I ask you a question?" Henry finally said, working up the courage.

"Yeah, sure. What's up?" He asked, looking over at him

"What… What are you doing here?" Henry was still trying to wrap his head around the fact that his favorite character was standing right in front of him, going to a hardware store with him.

"Well, Percy, Annabeth, Hazel, Frank, and Piper are on a quest. Part of it was that Jason and me had to stay away from them and each other in order for them to succeed." He frowned and started tapping his fingers.

Henry had lost all his confidence by now, so he just nodded. Even though he hadn't gotten the answer to the question he had meant to get.
"The store is just down here," he said, pointing.

They had just been about to enter when Leo heard a screech and narrowly dodged the claws of a flying demon. "Well, shit." He groaned and blasted the demon with fire when turned turned and came.at him again.

Henry had no idea what was going on. Well, he had some idea, there's to the books. Henry backed quickly away from Leo, ready to bolt away.

The demon creature.kept coming at Leo but he used his fire and his trusty hammer to knock it down and away. He had a cut in his forehead and arm and half his short was ripped open but he was fine, a little out if breath, but fine. "Whew! That was fun! Let's go inside?" He asked, putting his hammer back in his tool belt
