    that was food for thought. a bit of orin wished that he could meet him, or at least meet someone who could confirm or deny the theory. maybe chiron would know. chiron knew everything. more of a curse than anything, he supposed. "i'll have to think about it. i'll weigh up all the comparisons and get back to you. never know. he might be a child of hades or something. we might have it all wrong. some people don't even think he existed," he frowned. "which is stupid. how does someone write a book if they're not real? idiots." there was a flaw in his logic somewhere. he wasn't worried about finding it. "every story written for children is fundamentally messed-up at its core. it's all - it's all abuse and neglect and fairy princes and - and... and tortoises. tortoises winning against hares because the tortoise 'took its time'. what a load of -" he cut himself off, certain that getting too heated over a fable of aesop's was not the best way to retain a sense of calm in the cabin. "i think the troll threatened to eat them. i don't remember well."

    "we'll agree to disagree, right?" orin said, though it was clear he was still pulling the string a bit. "yeah. everyone. i've got people lining up to chat to me, riley. you should feel real lucky right now. i'm running off about five appointments with some soon-to-be disappointed campers. they need their time with the gorman. who doesn't? i feel a bit bad. but - for you..." he dragged the word out. "i'll let 'em wait."

    through the door, the sound of the lunch horn. orin's ears perked up. "thank god for that." he stood, swayed on his feet a little as he found his balance, and nodded toward the door. "munch?" his hand to the handle, swinging open the vast entrance and frowning at the cold of outside. "not ever gonna get used to that." orin stepped out, bracing against the cold. "come on, before the hermes kids hog all the good stuff."

x──────i ii ares. iii eighteen. iiii tags: vittorio ivi cabin area.

    a nod confirmed the answer to vittorio's question. "some of them. most of them," he wasn't sure whether he'd have called what he had 'powers' - he wasn't quite sure where the human impulses stopped and the godly impulses started. the line between his mortal skills and his demigod skills seemed rather blurred, mixed in with one another. certainly they were bolstered by each other, but where were they split? what could he blame on his dad, and what was his own fault? he wasn't sure. "blow up? yeah. can't anyone, though? anyone can make a bomb, right? just... i think most people would find it morally questionable." a little smile rose from him at the following question. "yeah, i feel that."

    he didn't quite mind, which surprised him. most of the people who had approached him in the past few hours had done so with a reason, with something that they wanted from him - be it protection or an explanation that he couldn't provide - and this was a rare instance of interaction without witness or reward. he was enjoying it, a bit. there was something that pulled him into the conversation, that silenced the little beast that sat on the sidelines.

    'the pink cabin' - that was aphrodite, then. "i wouldn't listen to most of them," he said. the ones he had come into contact with (that weren't mira, he had to note, for as much as she had bothered him earlier, it appeared that she had a good head on her shoulders) were vapid and shallow. "i wouldn't listen to most people here. i'm just cynical, though." he didn't trust his peers. so much was obvious. "but i'd definitely put aphrodite kids at the top of that list."

    "that's how i know you're new," he said in response to the question. most of the campers took one look at leo and had him sussed from mere appearances. "ares." the big bad, the first god trialled for murder, he who rode with enyo. his father seemed to have gotten the rather short end of the stick. the sound of the lunch horn came, interrupting any potential further thoughts of the mistreatment of the man he couldn't bring himself to call 'dad'. good thing, too. he could have gone for something to eat. "so you're with the hermes cabin, then. sorry." he hadn't been faced with their wrath for very long, but had seen it from afar. "going to get something to eat before you run off?" that was what he had gotten - the shifty eyes, the nerviness. he had picked up on it, and now it was clear. vittorio wanted to leave. everyone did. everyone was waiting for their moment to scarper, even if it was a tiny bit of them.

    "yeah!" jude confirmed. "one of my cousins plays a game called stardew valley - i think you'd really like it. it's just going around and farming, really. i've no idea what you do, but it seems like it'd be right up your alley." that was something to note down. she should have brought a notepad, but the last thing that she had anticipated was an idea-bouncing session.

    "you can be secretive without sneaking," jude pointed out. "you just need to know the right tricks. but if you can't keep it too secret, i won't mind. it's pretty exciting stuff. maybe we'll have to leak it in little tidbits, just so everyone can look forward to it." she chuckled to herself, the horn interrupting their plotting for now. here was where her own secret came in - the idea that had blossomed into a plan. "i'll see you in a little bit!" she called, heading in the direction of the cabins. she hadn't unpacked, but jude knew what she was looking for.

    inside of the hephaestus cabin was warm - it was always warm. she liked it that way. her case lay mostly untouched on the ground, and she wasted no further time in digging through carefully segmented sections of clothing and other essentials to find something that her one of her uncles had given her before she left. she had appreciated it - the little walkman, the case that came with it, the casettes of old beatles, xtc and bowie albums - but in all honesty, she was more fascinated by the inner workings of the thing than the thing in its entirety. it deserved to be loved for its intentions rather than its engineering. and it gave chuck something to listen to.
    fabric - a spare handkerchief for oil collection was torn quickly, precisely into a ribbon, the dotted brown-and-orange cloth making for a lovely little bow around the case that held the vintage piece of tech. gods willing, she would make sure to get chuck a few new tapes every time she returned to camp. that required that they all returned at all -
    no. for another time.

    with the gift in hand and a mission in mind, her venture took her to the cafeteria, where she spotted the satyr, placed the present in front of him, and disappeared before he could deny it, drifting to the so-far empty hephaestus table to line her stomach with something other than the nausea-inducing plane food that had taken her this far.

sweet.peaches~ wrote:Sabrina had flinched when the girl had nearly ran into her but she became to calm down when she had introduced herself. Can't really blame her for being excited. I do that all the time. "It's no biggie!" Before she said anything else, she had taken one second - she hoped she hadn't noticed - to scan her. She seemed friendly, probably not a threat. And this was a nice gesture. So she didn't see quite the harm in being polite. Grinning, Sabrina shook her hand and said, "Sabrina Okawa, at your service! You can call me Bree though," she quickly added. It wasn't really a nickname she had used a lot but when she looked around Camp Half-Blood, that nickname was all she could think of. Reminded her about the forests and the wilderness. She bit her tongue. There was no time to dwell in the past. She was in a conversation for Christ's sake.

"So," Sabrina said, "do you throw any karaoke parties here?" She joked, putting her hands in her hoodie pockets. "I mean, there is a Greek god of parties, right? Or was it theatre? His name..." She scratched her chin, trying to think, but she had gotten distracted by a slight cold breeze in the air. She shivered. "What's with the weather? I didn't think New York would be this freezing! Especially in the summer," Sabrina put in. She glanced around her surroundings and her eyes widened. How could she have not seen the winter wonderland right in front of her nose? She must have been too overwhelmed... (edit; not sure if the camp has snow or snow falling currently, please tell me if i need to edit anything haha)

She raised an eyebrow, "You know, that's an interesting idea. I guess we'll never know, unless you know of a way to go back in time or something? Could get some interesting conversations with the guy." Riley wondered if someone else had made a book and used the name of Sun Tzu. Nevertheless, it did seem kind of odd as to why they would do so though. She decided to nod. She let out a little chuckle. "You're getting awfully frustrated over children's stories," she commented. "The turtle and hare story... oh 'slow and steady wins the race?'" It was one of the few fables she knew. "I think the real moral of that tale was 'don't fall asleep during races, otherwise you're gonna get called out for being a loser into a stupid kid's story.' But hey, I guess it's better than being murdered for trying to eat people," she noted.

Riley snorted. "Wow, I feel very, very grateful for this honor," she sarcastically told him. "You must have lots of fangirls. Can I have your signature, almighty Orin?" She blinked at him. "For me?" She narrowed her blue eyes. "Well, of course. If you didn't give me special treatment, I probably would have blown up the Zeus cabin by now." She mimicked the sound of an explosion as well as acted out an eruption with her hands. "Dad wouldn't be pleased but hey, it would have done the job well." Riley shrugged.

The lunch horn blasted away. Food, she thought. Sounds good right now. Maybe just a tiny underestimation. In fact, her stomach was leaping for a meal. "I'm starving," Riley admitted. She followed him out of Cabin one. She shivered, wrapping her trench coat around her body even more closely. "Agreed. You should never feel cold during the summer," Riley made a disgusted face at the weather. She grinned at the mention of the Hermes kids hogging the food. "Ooo, I need one of those buttery croissants. Race you to the mess hall?" Before Orin could say anything, she bolted out of the cabin areas and reached the mess hall. She didn't know whether or not she had lost, or if he was even following her, as she stood still for a second next to the lunch tables, her head down, to catch her breath.

        Laika allowed herself a moment’s pause before returning to her work. It was baffling, how the ‘other side’ managed to accomplish such things. First, there was the collapsing big house. That was surely caused by storm and wind spirits, but a couple of venti would, for one, never dream of destroying such a building. And for two, they wouldn’t be able to get inside the protective weather barrier around the camp. She figured it had to be some sort of god or primordial being. A titan, even. But all the gods were calm, and the giants and Titans subdued.

        Then there was the question of what in the world Minister Kingston thought he was doing. The man was a simple mortal politician, he had no right or interest in what was happening in another continent. Laika glared at a clock on the wall, imagining the minister’s face on it. Kingston was threatening Camp Jupiter, of all places, and Laika deemed that unacceptable.

        What was killing all those mortals in Chicago, in Toronto? Laika could sense the death and terror lingering from attacks that were miles away, but couldn’t make sense of them at all.

        Suddenly, she stiffened, a new presence nearby. Laika sensed a life force at the door, and sighed silently. How many people were determined to bother her today? “No need to knock, just come in.” she said curtly.

Ash only nodded as the boy reassured him it was a joke. Ash's words seemed to bother Teilo and he frowned as the other camper turned stoic. On the off chance we'd be lucky..." even if something like that could sway monster's they wouldn't be a problem. Ash moved closer and lightly hit the top of the blonde's head with the back of his hand. This boy was going to be a hard one to crack, would the outcome be worth it? Ash removed his hand from a top of Teilo's head as he joined him in looking to see who wasn't there.

"We are missing hmmm the little Hades boy err.... Kevin? He has brown hair and always wears that ghastly black hoodie... no fashion sense I swear." he rambled off hoping to spark something in Teilo so at least maybe he'd get a hint of who Ash was speaking of. "Are you ready for this?" Ash asked Teilo in all seriousness, not a glimmer of jokes or confidence in his voice. Ash was of course excited to go on the quest but actually being ready for it was a whole nother thing that he hadn't even asked himself because if he did he had a feeling his answer wouldn't be noble.

Emerson accepted the warmth of Nathaniel's hug and returned it with a faint blush. The hug was over all too soon and the cold reached her body again as he let go. "I'm ok, besides turning into a demisicle in June." she chuckled lightly. Betting on who'll survive the quest, are plants really that tactless? "I feel Rosemary on that one but we'll get through this together." The questers will see to that. Hmm currency for plants, maybe song time?"We could offer up our musical capabilities as currency." she suggested.

Anything for her? Did she hear him right?
"Anything for you Emerson." a younger more rounded featured Nathaniel said handing her a plate filled with foods she'd never tasted before. She had agreed to Nathaniel making her some of his favorites. They had gotten so close whenever the first met but only now had she seen the boy in a different light. "I told you Nathaniel, it's Emmie now." the attitude of a teen shining through Emerson's words. "Ok, ok Emmie then. I've got just the dish to satisfy your hangry needs." he smiled brightly at her, unfazed by her tone. Her palms went sweaty as she took her first bite from the plate in front her. It was delicious! You know the saying the way to a man's heart was through his stomach? Well that rang true for Emerson. The two giggled while he made her more food...

The giggling seemed to drift away going back into the depths of her memories. Emmie didn't know it back then but that was the moment that made her harbor feelings for Nathaniel. She never told him then and began to wonder if she ever would if he didn't say anything about it.

She pulled herself away from her memory to finally answer his question. "Maybe through the fields, and around the lake then go get some lunch?" she suggested while tugging at her hoodie strings. She blushed as he complimented her singing."Thank you" she said softly. She nodded and took his hand and pulled him along in the direction of the fields.

━━━ 𝐕𝐢𝐭𝐭𝐨𝐫𝐢𝐨 𝐕𝐢𝐨𝐭𝐭𝐨-𝐏𝐞𝐫𝐞𝐳
[]17|he/him|Ares (unclaimed)|cabin area|tags: Leo


The response of ‘most of them’ caught his attention briefly, a flicker of thought jumping through his head. If most of these people had powers, that only seemed to confirm his belief that he didn’t belong here. There was nothing godly about him or anything he could do. The alternate possibility was that they were all delusional. He didn’t want to consider that being the reason he’d been sent here, so he shoved the thought away, turning his attention back to the conversation at hand. Despite his previous worries, he grinned at the moral question of creating a bomb. “I never said it was right,” he replied with a shrug. “I just said you could.”

He raised his eyebrows at Leo’s next words, seeming to consider them for a moment. He’d already been told to be careful who he trusted, but the first instance had felt more like a threat than a friendly piece of advice. “What about Hecate kids?” he asked suddenly, the earlier conversation being pulled back into his head. “I mean are they...do they usually…” He pulled a face. “I was talking to one of them earlier and she said some weird stuff. Something about a child of Khione being involved with all this.” He gestured around at the snow. “And about spies, trying to take down the camp from the inside or something.” He shook his head, smiling as he realized how absurd it all sounded. “I don’t know how truthful any of that is though. She didn’t strike me as a liar, but maybe she was just messing with me.” She wouldn’t be the first, he’d learnt that from a day in the Hermes cabin.

“Oh cool! You know, I’ve always thought Ares was kind of underrated. I mean, the guy’s sacred animal is a dog so that’s gotta be good, right? It’s like how dogs know who to trust and who not to trust. ‘Friend from foe. Nuzzle the kind, bark at the greedy and bite the scoundrels’, right? That’s Diogenes, he—“ He blinked, shaking his head as he realized he’d let his mouth get away from him again. “Sorry, I didn’t mean to...you probably don’t care.” Leo had literally just said who his father was, and now Vittorio was bombarding him with useless facts and philosophies as if a son of Ares would care about any of that. He cracked a smile at the apology. “Yeah, they’re...an interesting bunch.” That was putting it lightly, but he wasn’t going to speak badly of people he’d barely met.

“Do I give off the impression of someone ready to flee at any moment?” He shook his head. “I wish. I have nowhere to go. I don’t think my aunt and uncle would take me back even if I showed up on their doorstep,” he chuckled, but a hint of sadness had crept into his expression. He missed them, and Elisa and all of his friends. It had only been a day and a half but he was already sick of being surrounded by unfamiliar faces. Though he’d said it as a joke, he suspected there might be a ring of truth in his words. His aunt and uncle hadn’t given him much of an explanation before sending him away, other than that it would be ‘good’ for him, but they’d seemed pretty disappointed about the incident that had led to him being sent here. He wasn’t sure they’d been fully convinced it wasn’t his fault.

“But, yeah,” he said in response to the question. “Something to eat is probably a good idea if I do make a run for it. Would anyone even try to stop me if I did?” The question was half muttered, mostly to himself. It’s not like he was really going to do it, but the possibility had been considered.

if only i could keep you in my pocket
to give me some diagnosis of why i'm so hollow
please give me instructions, i promise i'll follow
i tripped on my ankle and fractured my elbow
but doesn't that mean that the tour's gonna sell, though?
i try to explain the good faith that's been wasted
but after an hour, it sounds like complaining
wait, don't go away, can i lie here forever?
you say that i'm better, why don't i feel better?
the universe works in mysterious ways
but i'm starting to think it ain't working for me
doctor, should i be good, should i be good this year?

caspia nodded as juliet explained, everything seemed to give her a headache as this whole new world opened up to her. her hands shook nervously in her pockets as juliet spoke of the campers who died last night. her mind wandered as her face paled 'this is insane, what's going to happen to me' she thought, her headache worsened 'seventeen..seve-eighteen kids, like me' a bitter chuckle came out of her mouth, shaking her head "I'm going to die here." she muttered, listening back in as juliet continued to talk. "oh, could she put the monster-thing to sleep?"

dahlia couldn't help but feel embarrassed, nodding at jaime "yeah I'm okay, head hurts a bit." she glared at aphy, wondering why she'd stopped so suddenly. maybe the ruins had startled her. "no, you've won. odds were in your favor." she smiled, patting his shoulder. "winning against me isn't something you should get used to though, I'm naturally lucky." she bragged jokingly. grabbing the reins of her horse she spotted the flowers that had been laid down earlier in the morning, frowning at the sight she crouched plucking one from the snow. 'it would be okay to just take one' she thought to herself, tucking it into her pocket wanting to have something of her sister along with her.

letting out a chuckle she nodded "I promise I'll keep him off." she knew oscar would be hard to keep off of any furniture in the hypnos cabin. her heart ached as she watched ash wipe away a tear, focusing on her hands she took a breath to hold in stinging tears. "alright, come back soon." delilah nodded, laughing as he chased after another kid. 'baby? I'll have to find out about that later' she noted, giving one last wave before tucking her hands into the jacket pocket. she enjoyed the warmth and the scent of the jacket, it was a mix of the hypnos cabin and ash. 'I'll definitely take care of it' she noted to herself.

ana couldn't help but look at the items around the cave, feeling bad she opened her mouth to apologize but quickly swallowed her words as she was welcomed in. nodding as he spoke, she looked at the painting he had been working on. the snow stung her heart as she looked at it 'mother' she frowned. "oh, uhm.." she awkwardly stumbled over her words. "that could be true, sometimes in russia during harsh winters we wouldn't see the sun." she spoke, remembering waking up to darkness still outside as snow continued to fall. "it could mean the snow will get worse, covering the sky hiding the sun."

"Bree, huh? Nice nickname!" Satchi chirped happily. She shook the other girl's hand before letting her arm fall to her side again. At the mention of karaoke parties, that smile turned to a playful smirk. "Wellll noooo we don’t, but if you’re a singer and partygoer, I bet I could convince some of the Hermes kids to help us set something up." She grinned. "Steal a karaoke machine or something, see if we can get some people involved. As for the weather..." that smile slipped away. "We're not entirely sure what’s happened. It just started snowing all of a sudden and nobody to my knowledge knows where it came from or why."

nathaniel 'nathan' hart | 14 | he/him | demeter | location: outside cabin 4 -> strawberry fields| tags: emmie
Nathan pulled back from the hug, happy to see her. He nodded approving at the new word she made up that combined 'demigod' and 'icicle' together. He didn't think he would be as cold as ice in the summer yet here he (and everyone else) was. "Demisicle. I like it. Think it describes everyone in camp. Too bad no mortals will ever have a reason to say it though." Nathan didn't quite mind though. Then again, he never really knew what went up in the mortal world. He hadn't left camp for at least five years, unless you count his past quest when he was thirteen. The memories he had before getting abandoned were faded and replaced with newer ones. Usually involving camp. Or life-threatening. Or terrifying. Take your pick. "Rosemary's a tough girl. I know you are too," Nathaniel couldn't help but give her a compliment as he grinned. It was his specialty after all. Flatter never hurt anyone. "I suppose," he took his time thinking about the currency for the plants. He wasn't a thinker or know-it-all like the Athena cabin but he wanted to make sure his plants were happy with what he could give them. Even if they were betting on which campers were coming back alive or not. "I guess I could move the losing flowers to the other side of the cabin," Nathan pointed to the other side of Cabin 4. "Then you could sing to the winners. You're much better than me. But that might be kinda mean to the plants who lost..." He blinked.

He swore he saw Emerson daze off a bit, getting lost in her thoughts, but it shifted as soon as he started to suspect something. He shoved it off as nothing more than just his imagination. The sound of the lunch horn rang into the air. His stomach felt like it had done multiple flips in there, he was so hungry. Nathaniel didn't want to delay eating lunch. After all, he hadn't eaten one bite of breakfast. He had to assume that his cabinmates had taken themselves to some helpings without their head counselor. He didn't mind. But he felt like he was obliged to go with Emmie. She's my friend. If I say no, she's gonna feel betrayed. Angry. Sad. It would be strange if somebody got upset because he simply wanted to eat but he just couldn't decline her offer. So he forced a little grin on his face. "Well, Emmie, it sounds like a plan then. The strawberry fields are a pretty sight to take in, although I haven't checked in to see how they're doing yet. I bet Mr. D is helping out though. And the lake is always gorgeous. Well, unless it's frozen over." He realized he wasn't being much help to boost her mood. "Well, forget I said all that." He shook his head. "But no problem. It's the truth. You're good at singing," Nathan shrugged.

He followed her to the fields, taking in the plants. The strawberries were rather worse than he expected, lots of snow covered all over them. When he sat down and went in to brush some snow off, it seemed that they weren't as great as they used to be. They weren't destroyed at least. Not necessarily the best, but still alright. He thanked the grumpy wine god in his head. He wasn't sure if he was the one helping the fields but he decided to be safe rather than sorry. "My flowers are not the only ones affected by.. whatever what's happening," Nathan murmured aloud although it had been directed to himself. A rock seemed to form in this throat. He did his best to swallow it down and push it away. He could only wish the questers luck in saving Camp Half-Blood. He hated being so helpless. But he promised not to do a quest again. He was too afraid. Especially with the stakes so high, he remembered the oracle speaking the prophecy. Seemed like there were going to be people who would freeze to death. Nathaniel felt a shudder down her spine, remembering Melody. Not again. His chest started to hurt. Immediately he tried his best to forget and desperately went to Emerson as a distraction. He stood up from his position and continued walking with her.

"So, uh. How are you doing? After everything that's, y'know, happened yesterday," Nathan asked lamely, taking his time going around the fields. He was careful not to step on any of the strawberries. It was the only question he could think of yet he had an expectation on what he would receive. Something along the lines of the worst since that was how he felt. He knew she hated small talk though. "Any bad dreams?"

She pulled away from the hand shake. Sabrina noticed she was very, very bubbly as soon as Satchi started to talk. It reminded her of one of her 'friends' at her high school, the one she didn't even know if she'd be going to next year. She did her best to divert her thoughts away from that though. That wasn't important anymore. She was at camp now. "Oh, uh, thanks! Never really liked the name Sabrina," she admitted. "There really weren't any good nicknames for it, except for Bree. Like someone called me Sabbie once. Sabbie!" She made a face when she said the nickname. "I don't know how they thought it was a good idea. Yuck." Sabrina gave her a weird look when she mentioned the Hermes kids. "Who...? Oh, uh. The god of thieves. His children." It was still kind of weird she was now living among demigods. And that she apparently was a demigod too. 'Weird' was an understatement for her but it was the only word she could think of. "Well, I can't really sing," she chuckled, "but I guess you could call me a partygoer." She put her hands up. "I don't endorse any stealing though."

"Oh. I'm sorry. That, that sucks," she frowned when she noticed Satchi's smile shift until it disappeared. Anxious to change the subject, she asked her, "So... who's your mom? Or, I mean, uhm, your dad," Sabrina quickly added. "I don't know who my mom is," she confessed. "I went on the wikipedia page of the Greek gods but none of them seemed to be... me. Like, I'm not good at gardening whatsoever so I wouldn't be a child of Demeter, right? And Aphrodite?" She sighed. "I don't even want to get into that." Sabrina was having a bit of trouble adjusting to this whole new world full of gods and monsters and heroes that usually died. She didn't want to die. Yet here she was. "If you don't mind me asking, could you give me a direction to... whatever cabin I'm supposed to be in?" She was completely lost. "Or maybe a map? Do you guys have a map or something?"

Cassandra Peters|19|Hermes|Head Counselor|Demi-bisexual|Loc:Woods|Tags/Mentions:Edgar,Auggie,open
Cass looked a bit surprised at Auggie's response since the Hades counselor looked like she was going to say no. "Cool" Cass responded brushing off her surprise with a shrug before standing up and wiping the snow off her backside. Cass reached into her back pocket digging around for some of the nuts that she kept in there ", Oh these ones are his favorites" Cass remarked with a grin as she pulled out a small handful of pine nuts from her pocket and closed her hand around them so they wouldn't drop. As Cass made her way over to Auggie Edgar noticed Cass holding his favorite treat began to move further down her arm towards her hand and began to give Cass' hand a few pecks trying to get at the nuts "Will you be patient" Cass scolded Edgar who responded with a croak of protest before moving back to her shoulder rather disgruntled. "Here" Cass said with a small smile stopping in front of Auggie and holding out her hand so that way the Hades head counselor could take the pine nuts.

Jack Morrison|18|Demeter|Pansexual|Loc:Dining Pavilion|Tags/mentions:Hank,Relia,Open
"Your welcome" Jack responded brightly glad that he could help Relia. "yeah" Jack responded looking around at the snow "But hey the snow covering everything looks beautiful". Jack always tried to look on the bright side and although things were pretty bad right now that didn't mean their wasn't good things. Since Jack wasn't a year round camper he never really got the chance to experience camp during the snow so at least now he could. Ooh maybe make a snowman with a couple of his friends.Jack was sure that would probably help lighten the mood, he certainly had plenty of hats and scarfs to decorate it with. "yeah I said bye to everyone I needed too" Jack replied although he had only said goodbye to Mira but he didn't want to hold everyone else up since they should probably get going. jack turned slightly when he felt a tap on his shoulder "Thanks Hank" Jack beamed appreciatively before turning back to Relia who looked rather sad. "hey" Jack said gently placing his hand on her shoulder "There's a lot of skilled people going on the quest and I'm sure that they'll be able to defeat Khione" he continued giving her what he hoped was a reassuring smile and her shoulder a gentle squeeze. Even though this situation seemed rather hopeless he didn't want to wallow in doubt there were a lot of things that he didn't know but staying hopful was something he was good at and he was determined to stay positive and help everyone through this tough time.

"Ah. I haven't gotten a chance to ask the Athena kids what they thiught about it yet and besides, I don't know if they know about the other gods. I'm sure they do since we're here and they crave knowlege anyways. They would read every book in the universe if they had the time." Sa'd hummed.

Sa'd gave Zahra a lopsided smile in return causing the teen's features to look mischievous though that was far from their intentions.

"Oh. I suppose she would be. Expesially at a time like this. There's a sparring ring in front of the cabin with a boar's head and barbed wire. You could always let her, and yourself, blow off some steam there." Sa'd offered.

"I, uh, y ok u're welcome." Sa'd stuttered not used to being thanked.

Sa'd reached out to pet Zahra before quickly retracting their hand once realizing what theybwere doing.

"Sorry. A-are you fluffy? Sorry its a weird question. You obviously don't have to answer if you don't want to." Sa'd said before she bounded away.

Ai saw a girl by the cabins and bounced over to her. Ai didn't want to scare her, so they barked a little to get her attention before changing into their human form. "Hey, uh, were's the food? And the bathroom?Why are you all by yourself? What's your name? Who's your godly parent? It's cool here. Was that an insensitive question?" Ai bombarded her with questions.

They were was excited, so they couldn't help when their tail appeared and started wagging or when their ears appeared and flopped over when they titled their head.
