If it falls over, I'll do the stacking, okay? [ Percy promises. No, it may not wind up to Annabeth's liking, because she tends to be pretty particular about these things, but he's still offering. It's totally fine.
He looks in Cassian's direction now, his grin growing a little wider, maybe with an added sparkle of mischief in his sea-green eyes. ]
Uh—huh. Okay, I'm picking up what you're putting down. [ He studies the block in question and honestly, he feels pretty good about this.
It better be good, or he's sure Annabeth's going to kick his butt later for it.
At Cassian's direction, he removes the block second from the edge and stacks it up into the middle. The tower still remains intact, not a jitter in sight. He rubs his hands together, exhales a breath, and prepares himself for the Great Jongo Choppening —
— and as he raises a hand, straight and firm, and swipes it real fast across the upper middle of the tower, it kinda does something he didn't think was possible.
Only the uppermost blocks he'd chopped off like a human knife fly off, leaving the rest of the tower in place. A whisper of movement vibrates to the ground as though Percy had become the Jongo Tower's personal earthquake, but nothing else moves out of place. ]

No freakin' way —
[ He whoops. Loudly. ]
