[ Percy is visibly in the forge, no surprise there, but it doesn't seem like much work is getting done. He looks more than a little manic, not quite able to sit still at the moment. And also like he may not have slept much recently, which might explain it. ]

Alright. I wasn't going to...[ he takes a breath and makes himself settle. A little. ] I've been hearing a lot about bonds recently. And obviously, I can only speak to the Witch side, but for that, I'm going to tell you a secret.

[ He leans forward a bit, mostly to make the point. ] You don't need one. If you want to bond, by all means enjoy yourself, but my gods don't let anyone convince you that you must have one. Going without may not be pleasant or comfortable or even particularly safe, but it is possible. I've managed without for well over a year, and I--

[How do you practice that sorta thing?! Does Prompto even want to know??]

Either way, just because you could avoid going crazy doesn't mean you need to go around and tell people they don't need bonds. Most of us do.

Choose to what, go crazy? Is that seriously what you're saying?

When the choice is "pain and going feral or exploding", I'm pretty sure it's no choice at all.
