on Monday, after a RPM class, Percy spent the whole day out with Lee Jordan in the largest, most frequented shopping mall in his vicinity-like... vicinity. the original plan was to go out for a coffee, but a need-dextrose-dextrin-and-disaccharides-to-function Percy insisted that they must have lunch. so off they went to Wagamama.
in fact, afterwards, Percy also chose the coffee shop, of which Lee Jordan was a tragic victim to a mini stale banana-chocolate muffin whilst Percy happily sipped his hot toffee coffee.
this situation then balanced out because they went to all of Lee Jordan's favourite stores, where he had bought a shirt, a dress and a jar of smooth peanut butter. they sat in a frozen yoghurt shop. throughout all this, they were chattering faster than teeth clattered and squeaked after one ingested several packets of Ice Mice. they discussed vital topics, such as Lee Jordan's road traffic accident that left him with a busted lip (healing well), his bookshelf-assembling skills (that left Lee Jordan with other injuries because being in a road traffic accident is not enough), their current workout and weight training regimens, their now pragmatic training-and-body expectations compared to their nonsensical ones (Lee Jordan wanting legs with more definitions than an English-to-Elvish dictionary, Percy wanting to looksemi-human the same) before, their dietary changes and thoughts, and their university rotations (for 6 weeks, Percy has paediatrics whilst Lee Jordan has psychiatry.)
Percy then ended up looking through three pair of Nike shoes (he did not buy any because he realised that he needed to splinch off an arm and leg to pay for it! they were also not comfortable on his feet and that is of most critical importance, especially seeing as Percy has flat feet), and Lee Jordan for high-quality resistance bands. Percy then left Lee Jordan to get Ginny and her Dutch friend from the supermarket, who has been living in Ginny's room for the past month... literally and is now dubbed as Gerda Curd, for the fact that she was lugging kilos of fresh Dutch cheese from Holland to the Middle East for Ginny but... is lactose intolerant. they went home where Ginny gave Percy a Gryffindor notebook (!)even though Percy does not consider himself a Gryffindor even though that is where the Sorting Hat and the rest of the universe put him in:
Ginny's explanation for this gift was sweeter than pumpkin pasties and butterbeer biscuits! she said,
"i know when you're in the hospital, you take little notebooks with you to scribble notes based on what the healers say. so i thought to get you a little notebook to take with you for next year."
this is where Percy consumed half an Antipodean Opaleye's weight in vegetable tappenyaki. he practically bullied suggested to Lee Jordan that they should get vegetable gyozas (because if you did not Percy will hex your resistance bands!). when they bought the gyozas, Percy promptly ate all of... one of.

now, if ONLY Percy could be gifted a decrypting tool because he writes so quickly when he is taking a history that the resultant suffering scrawl looks like it belongs in an old abandoned Ancient Runes textbook.
