oh GOD i need to rant for a minute
so in percys first interaction with pete he calls him "peter" right, he assumes that pete is short for peter so opts to call him something formal
he LEARNS that petes name is just pete, but later on after hes drugged the cast he starts by saying something along the lines of
"Peter, yes? I am just... fascinated by you."
HE!!!! CALLS HIM PETER AGAIN!!!
even before rewiring and removing Pete's identity he was already trying to make him someone hes not!!!
and then he names him "Nothing"!!!!! NOTHING???? THATS MY SON OVER THERE >:(((
midge you beautiful bastard im tossing you into the flow for that but not before tipping my hat off, you've managed to subtly create someone who cares only for himself and not the identity of others
