Fallon Wood
"Yeah.." Fallon shrugged. She loved photography since it connected her with her late mother and reminded her of her time before she knew who she was. She shifted. Sure, she wasn't one for friends and preferred to be alone, but with all the demigods that went missing she couldn't bring herself to come up with an excuse to get out of it. "Sure, but go shower first. You should probably cool yourself off." With the way Fallon was, her fun included hard, fully active activities, not just photography.
In fact, her favorite place to go was the climbing wall. She was terrifyingly good at it, mainly because of her experience with rock-climbing. She was known for scaling the wall, not even the lava bothering her. In fact, she had been up a few active volcanos when she was still little. For someone so adventurous, she had a fear of falling, yet no problem with heights. Because of her fear, the sneakers she was wearing were actually winged shoes that activated by a word. It was a gift from her father, more or less an apology for the tragedy that befell her.

(It was pretty fun! It's a club at our library and I know the librarian and offered to dm. I wasn't sure what type of people to expect, but they're a pretty chill group.
Hopefully tomorrow afternoon I'll actually be on to get the ball rolling with a prophecy (oooooo~) but I am also going on a family vacation to Kansas city over the weekend so I may be spotty. Honestly tho, watch me be more active)

Rory was glad to be doing something with her. "Great," he said with a grin. He was a very social person and was always trying to make friends. His first victims? His siblings. It simply made sense that he should get them to like him if they'd all be living together. Fallon wasn't quite as outgoing as some of his other siblings, so he was trying hard to get her to like him. When she suggested he shower, Rory nodded. He disappeared into the cabin and grabbed his shower bag and some clean clothes before heading off to the bathroom. He took a little longer than usual (though his usual showers were only a couple minutes) and then got redressed in a bright Camp Half Blood shirt and a pair of cargo shorts before slipping on a pair of shoes and joining his sister outside. "So, where do you wanna go?" he asked, green eyes bright as he looked over at her. *ᴿᵃᶤᶰᶜᵃˡˡᵉʳ*

Archie winced as Levi bushed open the door with his shoulder, although it didn't seem to pain him whatsoever, she didn't want him to take any chances with the cut on his hand. When the duo entered she waved at her half-sister and Archie shot Riley a whole-hearted grin at her comment. At her mom's house in Florida, Archie was an only child, so having a sister to hang out with was absolutely amazing (in Archie's humble opinion, at least). Not to mention the whole camp was basically like a second family to her. While she didn't know all of them, she felt a faint connection with each and every one. They all shared similar stories and found a safe haven here at Camp Half-Blood. "Pop a squat." Archie said, patting her bunk for Levi to sit on. Archie smiled at Riley has she took the medical kit from her hand and mumbled a quick thank you to her. She popped it open and an assortment of bandages, wraps, creams and swabs fell out. It was clearly loaded in case something bad did happen, although it hadn't been used much. This was probably one of the first times Archie had used it, if not the first. She usually just headed straight to the infirmary or Apollo cabin. Archie dug around in the mess, searching for a thread, pulling out a silk filament. After she found the thread, Archie found a curved needle and a sterile swab, threading the silk and cleaning the needle with the swab. She dug around deeper and pulled out a small package, which read numbing cream in big, bold letters. She slipped away for a moment, the sound of a faucet running let Levi know she was scrubbing her hands. She popped back and sat across from Levi. Archie reached out and grasped his hand, gently removing the towel to assess the cut. It was deep, but clean, not terrible to mend. Thunder rumbled in the ceiling of the cabin, reflecting Archie's nerves. She then applied a thin layer of the numbing cream, letting it settle before wiping it off after the allotted time. "Sorry, this might hurt a bit, it's as numb as it can be with this generic crap." Archie said, waving the tube of numbing cream. She looked up at him with an apologetic grimace. "Try not to look at the needle, that will help." She added. "So, you mentioned you and your mom being outdoorsy. What kind of stuff does 'outdoorsy' entail? Are you guys still outdoorsy together?" Archie asked, hoping to distract him from the dull pain he would feel soon from the alcohol swab, which she gently wiped the cut with. She drew her lip between her teeth and her brow furrowed as she began to work. .

Riley had had siblings back at home... Well, half siblings apparently. They were all boys. Finn was a couple years old and the twins, Vince and Nick, were a couple years younger. Having Archie around provided the sisterly bond that Riley had been missing all her life. But she took her eyes off of her sister and glanced at the boy she'd brought into the cabin. "Hephaestus?" she asked, noting the grease on his skin and the fact that he'd injured himself in the forge. Levi nodded. "Levi Rue," he said, looking as if he were about to shake her hand before remembering the cut on his hand. He just shrugged and sat down on the bunk that Archie had indicated. "Zeus?" he asked. Riley smirked. "How'd you guess?" she asked. How did he know she was a daughter of Zeus? Maybe her father was Dionysus but she just liked breaking into people's cabins and chilling? "Riley Capps. Archie's fantastic sister," she said, nudging the other girl. Levi's eyes widened as he glanced over at the well stocked medical kit the two girls kept in their cabin. "You guys are pretty serious about this, huh?" he asked, spotting it. Riley shrugged. "Well, Archie is the more doctor-y one in our cabin but I'm pretty into medicine too. We like to be prepared," she said, watching her sister slip off to go wash her hands. She quieted down when Archie returned and settled in to watch her sister work. "don't worry. I'm tough," Levi said, closing his eyes and looking down at the needle. Even after she warned him, he continued to watch it. Just like getting a shot as a kid, he preferred to watch the needle instead of look away. When she asked if they were still outdoorsy, he flinched. "Sorry," he muttered, keeping his hand still. He had been very close to his mother, so her disappearance still bothered him years later. "Uh, my mom is missing," he said, choking the words out. "And I was taken to camp so I never had a chance to find her." His voice was quiet and he seemed to zone out for a moment, not seeming to feel as he focused on the pain of his mother - it was enough to distract him from the pain in his hand. kai(Sorry it took forever)

Archie grinned at her sister, "Fantastic is one way to put it." She adored the girl, and when Nova was there, the trio felt complete, but ever since she hadn't arrived at camp it felt like a piece of them was missing. Riley and Levi's conversation dwindled away as Archie set off to work and she smiled at his comment about being tough. That was a trait she believed many kids at Camp Half-Blood carried. They were all born and immediately in danger, those who have survived thus far on their own, or with the help of Chiron and the camp definitely were tough. But Archie sensed Levi was tough in different ways, too. When Levi mentioned his mom's disappearance her heart fell. Archie was extremely close with her mother as well and she couldn't imagine not having her, or her step-father, James. Archie paused her stitching and swallowed a lump in her throat. Don't be so emotional, you baby. Your mother is fine. Archie thought, but made a mental note to make a phone call to her mom later that night, rules be damned. "I'm so sorry." Archie murmured, tying a knot in the end of the thread and cutting off the excess. Done. She gazed at Levi sitting across from her and reached her hand out, rubbing his shoulder for a moment before she dropped her hand. "I can't imagine how that must feel, but on the bright side, if she is just missing.. maybe you could find her." Archie said, trying to give him a morale boost. Her heart felt heavy for the young demi-god. Like everyone here, one of his parents walked out, for Levi and Archie it was their fathers. She couldn't imagine how that felt, having a mother be there for him his whole life, and then suddenly be missing. Above them, the thunder rumbled in the cabin's highest point and dark rain cloud collected. Sometimes the cabin's ability to reflect the girls' emotions was cool, but in this instance it just put a damper on Archie's mood. She looked up and silently cursed the observant magical ceiling. Just what we need right now, depressing clouds to set the mood."So, are you still feeling up to showing me and my powers up?" Archie asked tentatively, giving Levi a warm smile. [ it looks great to me buddy ~ heyo khalessi, what's up ] .

"Fantastic is one way to put it... I'd say the more accurate way is to call myself the best daughter of Zeus," Riley teased. The three girls were close and always had been, so Archie should know that Riley didn't mean any harm. In fact, she'd hate to be there without her older half sister. She noticed a weak, forced smile on Levi's face and frowned a bit. Maybe he wasn't that close with his siblings? She eased back, not wanting to make the much larger boy feel uncomfortable in her cabin. She leaned back from peeking over Archie's shoulder to sit back on her bed. She could still watch and communicate with them from here and she knew she wouldn't be crowding Levi too much. Levi was tough and he'd been that way for as long as he could remember. Every demigod was tough in their own way. Even the sweetest and most fragile looking ones had overcome the odds. They got a target on their back as soon as they were born. Even Aphrodite's pretty kids that looked as if they'd rather sit around and gossip or do makeup than train were tough. It was a trait he admired, and just one of the multiple qualities that everyone here shared. He didn't respond when she said she was sorry. Everyone said they were sorry and he didn't eat it. It wasn't their fault his mom was gone And them apologizing wasn't going to bring her back. He looked over when he saw Riley lean over on her bed. "Yeah, that really sucks, Levi. But maybe she's still alive," she pointed out. Levi didn't respond to that comment either. This is why he didn't like to share too much about his personal life. But he made no move to silence the girls. "Uh, yeah... I've tried looking for her, but most times I'm out of camp it's for a quest and they won't just let me out on my own to search for her." His mom was a strong woman. The strongest woman he'd ever known. He liked to believe that she was even stronger than the immortal goddesses that abandoned their kids here, just like his father did. He was close to his mother. She'd always raised him on his own and she could do everything that a father could do. He didn't realize when he was young how much work she put into raising him and providing for him. Even when she was working a lot or dating some guy, she had always made time for Levi. He missed her more than anything. Her next words were a welcome distraction and he nodded. "Uh, Riley, why don't you come see too?" he asked. He closed the blinds over the windows to make the cabin darker and to keep other people from coming in. He held his uninjured hand in the air and concentrated for a moment before a small flame popped up in his palm. kai

Archie laughed at her sister's playful banter and nodded along, "Of course, if dad ever decides to, ya know, be a father and visit us I suppose we could ask." She joked, although it stung a bit after she said it. A part of her despised their father for being a deadbeat and rarely doing a thing for her, which may have been selfish, she did have a great family now. Despite that, a corner of Archie's mind always wanted to meet and get to know her father. Archie wanted Levi to be able to express how he was feeling, but she got the sense that he wasn't particularly in the mood, and she understood that. They had, after all, only met about half and hour ago, so Archie respected that and backed off on the topic and pushed on with the new display of powers. She had heard of children of Hephaestus having a large variety of powers, and wondered which ones Levi had. When a bright flame danced on his palm, her eyes lit up and she laughed. "That's amazing. Pyrokenisis is so rare!" Archie yelped, smiling at Levi, then at her sister. Archie seemed like a hyperactive dog that just hear a squeaky toy, but she didn't care. Powers were easily her favorite part about being a demi-god. Always a good party trick. "That's pretty cool. How many powers have manifested with you?" Archie inquired, "And you too, Ri. Have you gained any new powers while we were apart?" She eagerly awaited their answers. The variety and expanse demi-god powers covered amazed her. She herself had manifested all her powers; atmokenisis, electrokenisis and attraction. The last one embarrassed her a bit and she rarely used it, but the first two were quite useful. .[ oh yes, food is always a go i eat when im bored, its a bad habit :3just chilling in bed, reading a book. being lazy, the usual cx ]

"Oh, no. It's best we don't ask him because I don't want you to get hurt when you realize I really am the favorite," Riley said. She did want to know her dad and she figured most of them did. After all, most demigods grew up with one or no parents. Riley... She'd grown up with two, and always assumed that her brothers' father was hers. She still wasn't sure what had hurt more - the fact that he wasn't or the fact that he probably didn't even know Riley wasn't his. Did her mom know? It was just too much to focus on at the moment. Instead, she turned to look at Levi. Levi was glad when Archie backed off about his mom and he relaxed a little. So many people pushed him and it just wasn't something he was comfortable discussing with someone he'd just met. At least the daughters of Zeus seemed to get that because Riley backed off as well when Levi avoided the topic. He knew his pyrokinesis was rare and tried to keep it a little bit under the radar. He just figured Archie deserved something for stitching his hand up. Plus it was a good distraction. He extinguished the flame and shrugged. He was a little thrown off by how excited Archie was, but he didn't try to show it. Riley shook her head a bit. "Sorry, she gets a little overexcited about powers," Riley apologized, putting a hand on Archie's shoulder. At least she wasn't totally freaking out about Levi's pyrokinesis. "Just, uh, don't go around telling everyone. It's not a secret but it's also not common knowledge," he said with a shrug. Then at her next question, he looked down at the stitches in his hand, giving him something to occupy his eyes with. "Uh, pyrokinesis and technokinesis," he said. Riley shook her head. "same as always. Atmokinesis, electrokinesis, and flight," she said. It made sense that the girls shared most of their powers. At times, Riley was jealous of Arhie's attraction, but flying was pretty darn cool. Who needs guys when you can fly? kai

Archie giggled at her sister, "Touche." She simply replied. Archie noticed that Levi seemed to relax a bit at the drop of the topic of his mom. She tried to push that sadness out of her mind and focus instead on his pyrokenisis. Why was no one else as excited as her?? Because you're a bit over-the-top, Arch. Chill out.Archie patted her sister's hand, she took the words right out of her mouth. "I just think it's super cool how there's such a broad variety between all of us." Archie explained with a simple nod. When Levi talked about keeping his powers private she was surprised. If it were Archie, she would've been practicing out in the open against other demi-gods, probably children of Poseidon, studying how they interact. Then again, she and Levi were quite different. Archie was outgoing and talkative, whereas she had got a more quiet and reserved vibe from Levi. Still she was amazed by his abilities. Then there was Riley's ability. Much like she sometimes envied Archie's attraction, Archie envied her flight all the time. Attraction wasn't something she used frequently, only on a quest every so often, but flight would be something she would use all the time. "Riley is my glorified jet, since I can't fly." Archie said, playfully bumping Riley with her shoulder. "So, now it's my turn." Archie mumbled, raising her hand, she dropped it again. "Actually we should go outside, then Riley and I will both have more room." Archie said, standing up and opening the doors before heading out. She headed behind the cabin, so as to not draw attention, and then raised her palm upward. The sky remained bright, but a bolt of lightning struck a bush, which simply vanished into a pile of ash. She winced. "Chiron works with me to train and control it. Sometimes I channel too much energy and simply turn things to dust." Archie said with a guilty smile. Archie stepped back and gestured for Riley to take her turn in their show and tell of powers. .[ hmm, i'd offer up mateo, but he's not finished yet :// ]
