"Well, obviously, we find him before he's discovered by a pack of velociraptors," Leo replied with a roll of his eyes. 'You saw the movies. That never works out well, and Jason's no Chris Pratt."
That would be pretty hilarious, but Percy was more likely to make that happen than Jason. Or Nico, maybe, considering they're all technically dead. Leo stared out into the woods, hands on his hips as he tried to spot a speck of blond among the trees. No dice.
"Alright, what's his favorite dinosaur? I say we look there first."
Piper snorted. "Obviously that was a good idea an hour ago." She waved over in the general direction of the woods where they had last seen her boyfriend before both she and Leo had gotten distracted by the triceratops. "And didn't someone say that, 'oh no, the dinosaurs will be fine, it'll be just a quick detour and then we'll be on the road again' before you know it? Because I could've sworn someone said that."
She jumped off the hood of the car, brushing at her shorts. Leave it up to them to lose their travel companion - and to dinosaurs, of all things.
"If we don't find him before it gets dark, I'm lighting your hair on fire and sending smoke signals."
"You can't blame me for your boyfriend having no sense of direction," he retorted. "You'd think someone who can literally ride the wind would know how to get somewhere, but nooooo. Just for the record, we are so not leaving him in charge of the map when we leave."
It should have been fine! It really should have, but of course they had to play around when they reached one of their mutual favorites. Why the heck would Jason just wander off like that, anyway? Shouldn't he know better by now? The guy could be almost as bad as Percy Jackson sometimes.
"And I can light my own hair on fire, thanks," Leo said haughtily, picking a direction and heading that way. "C'mon, maybe he's hanging out with the pterodactyls. Kindred spirits or whatever."
