I can't buy this. Because Percy does react. He chases them around and 
goes into rages throughout the books. He doesn't answer back with a 
poker face. Instead, he is always described as turning a deep red. 
They definitely know he has emotions. The reason they continue their 
tricks against him is that they DO get such a good reaction.
