[ While Siegfried is enjoying his coffee, Percy hasn't taken a sip, continuing to cup it in his hands. He's far too bundled up in his nerves to sit back and enjoy that relaxing beverage and the anxiety is only becoming worse. Should he ask? Siegfried himself appears to have found a way to remove his animal parts, so he's likely had partners -- in fact, that shouldn't even come as a surprise with Siegfried's looks and charismatic presence. Not a surprise at all. It's just not a place Percy's ever allowed his mind to wander to out of respect for the person who's taught him almost everything he knows about being a knight.

Here's hoping Siegfried can catch his drift though.]
