Percy reaches out and rubs his thumb across Oliver's cheek. Oliver exhales slowly and leans into it, and he's so, so tired. He doesn't say anything and neither does Percy, and when he closes his eyes, the fires in the Forbidden Forest burn bright in his mind.
"God," he chokes out, and his tears sting, bitter and sorrowful. Percy hesitates, then steps closer and wraps himself around Oliver, burying his face in Oliver's neck.
"It's over," Percy whispers in his ear, his voice choked and rough. "It's over," he says. "It's the end."
