Hello! I have Jared open still and I can reply to starters)
Spencer was going to the training arena. She still felt a bit out of place, but she was determined to learn how to fight properly. She also had no idea where to start. XD
(Also, replying to Lyra and Levin)
Christian nodded,”good. I really don’t wanna deal with some stupid Ares kid trying screw up all the plans because he actually like his parents and is too headstrong to realize how stupid that is,”he muttered, rolling his eyes at the thought of Mathias. He did feel some guilt for the campers though. Demi-gods didn’t ask to exist.

*pushes Kumiko towards Jacob* :3)
“Oh, I’m sure you can, but it’s better safe than sorry.” Echo said with a light laugh. “So. Have you chosen which team you’ll be joining for the next capture the flag game?” She asked Nat, slowing to a nice leisure walk in the direction of the lake.
“And you’re the corny ass actor starring in it.” Nathaniel said as he followed after Mathias, slowly closing the door behind them so that it wouldn’t make a sound when it snapped shut. Falling silent once they were inside the abandoned warehouse, Nathaniel’s eyes scanned the building, taking in the machinery and stacks of crates that filled it.
Kumiko was humming quietly to herself as she walked towards the Forge, planning on bothering Jacob for a bit. Maybe she could convince him to take a break from the forge and do something fun instead.

“Um…no I haven’t. I haven’t even thought about it actually. Which cabins are leading? Aphrodite and Athena?”Nat asked, clearly unsure. This capture the flag was the last thing on her mind until now. Emilia was at the climbing wall, putting gear on and getting ready to climb. It was definitely a hobby for her more than a work out. (Foxy I have Spencer, Jared, and Emilia open  ) |

Mathias could kill monsters with his bare hands if they came after him. Being a demi-god had ruined too much of her life. |

He silenced, going into fight and focused mode as he walked through the building. He glanced around, eyes sharp, body thrumming with energy and adrenaline, itching to fight. |

Momotarou is dissatisfied by this answer but has the grace not to show it, inclining his head in acknowledgement and slanting his gaze toward his sister. She responds to his nonverbal prompting with a minute shake of her head. Saint has already drawn up a list but there's nothing concrete yet. It is to be expected that a Counselor like Horus would like to think the best of those in his care, he doesn't have the benefit of being endlessly paranoid like Saint. Momotarou can touch base with him later, whenever he's done covertly running from him...
"Then we must approach it from a different angle." He shifts to raise a knee, resting a bandaged forearm on it and gesturing with his tea. "Forget who would be emotionally capable, what kind of person would be physically capable of pulling this off in that span of time? What could they have been doing beforehand? Taking part in the game, or opting to sit it out? What are the powers their parent could have given them that would help them succeed in their endeavor? No demigod is to be underestimated but we should at least have a list of the most likely perpetrators based on skill and ability."
The younger teen watches with a wary frown as her brother becomes more impassioned, previously smiling lips pulling into a mild scowl.
"It's likely that was just a warning or trial run. We cannot allow them space to grow bolder and sow more chaos. You will have no more issue now that I am here to attend." Of course this is delivered with his usual lackadaisical arrogance. Momo can never see a future in which he doesn't succeed. Mitarashi almost wants to jab him in his still-healing ribs to remind him that he's still fallible.
"That may be hard to do right now," she argues softly. "It's so soon...why don't we just enjoy the te-" Momotarou is already cutting her off with a decisive slash of his empty hand.
"Mita hush, you should know that isn't an option." His steely gaze narrows on hers and she hastily looks away, cheeks coloring. "If you truly believe indolence to be the best course of action, then I challenge you here and now to defend your conviction with your blade."
Ah, she should have kept her mouth shut. Mitarashi instinctively attempts to make herself smaller. "N-no brother, you're right. I'm sorry."
The intensity in his gaze doesn't lessen entirely, but she can sigh with relief when it shifts. "There is no need to apologize, simply reflect more before you speak."
"R-right..."
Momotarou runs an agitated hand through his hair, spilling more sunlight over his shoulders. "The moments after an attack are meant to be the most fraught. I can't- I won't-" He descends into tense silence, stormy gaze set on some distant point in the past. One of the few times that he's acknowledged a failure, most likely.
Mitarashi shoots Horus an apologetic look and reluctantly straightens her curved spine. "M-more tea?"

“Yup. You’re more than welcome to join my team. The Aphrodite cabin could use your help.” Echo said, looking at Nat. Truthfully, Echo hadn’t had much time to come up with a strategy for next game and has only managed to secure a couple of cabins for her team. The game was only a few days away, so maybe it was time to focus on normal camp activities. “I know everyone in camp have been tense and stressed out by the attack, and I doubt this game will make things easier. We’re gonna have to be on our guard, and we can use this time to keep an eye out for any kind of clue that can lead us to the traitor.” She said, pausing in her walk.
Nathaniel let out a quiet chuckle, moving further into the warehouse quietly and looking into rooms carefully as they passed them. After passing a few rooms, Nathaniel came to a stop and motioned to Mathias, pointing into the room. “Looks like we found his den. And he isn’t home, just our luck.” He said in a hushed tone. The room was an absolute mess of torn clothes and bones scattered around. “I’m sure he’ll be back soon though, gives us a bit of time to set up an ambush. What do you think?” Nathaniel added, turning to look at Mathias.
“I see the two of you haven’t changed.” Horus said mildly, holding his cup out for Mitarashi to fill again. He was unfazed by Momotarou’s attitude, having seen it many times before. “We’ll figure it out soon. All of the cabin Counselors and Chiron are searching for answers.” He added.

“Great. Just our luck.” Mathias huffed, disappointed. Of course the bastard wasn’t here. He looked around the room, finally deciding after a moment. “Fine. An ambush is better than not getting to fight him at all. You’re the tactician here, and the one who’s good at sneaking around.” He rolled his eyes, before snorting a short laugh. “How’d you want to go about it?”

** Momotarou & Mitarashi / Icefire15
-
Momotarou's brows arch at his half-brother's comment, the tension beginning to bleed from his body when Mita puts a hesitant hand on his shoulder. "Haven't I?" He wonders faintly, attention on Horus whilst he extends an arm to prevent the smaller halfblood from unbalancing. She appears to have been attempting to 'comfort' him and pour tea at the same time. "Hm."
"I suppose you haven't either." The words emerge with a sigh, eyes dropping to watch his rippling reflection in the remains of his tea before he downs it. A slight moue suggests he wishes it were something stronger. "I cannot understand how you can display such...patience at a time like this. I don't mind the familiar though." A sudden grin brightens his doll-like features and Momo reaches over to clap his companion on the back. "That's why you're the Counselor, after all~ Ahaha~!"
Mitarashi tilts into his side with a muffled squeak even before her brother instinctively moves to catch her. "And I~ am your Knight Errant. No asperity to be cast on Chiron and your fellows, but I refuse to leave everything solely in their hands. What else would I be here for?" He deftly catches the teapot as he speaks, carefully sliding it from Mitarashi's loose fingers and setting it on the blanket before him. She mumbles more apologies as she fades from consciousness, and he allows her to take over half of his lap. Momo unties Hebi and uses the ribbon to draw up his lengthy tresses into a bun before he begins to gather the remnants of Mita's surprise picnic. Predictably, he'd eaten practically all of the sweets despite his best efforts to share them. "I suppose that's our cue to leave for now~"
His smile is genuine when he returns it to Horus. "It was a pleasure seeing you again. I would appreciate it if you would think on what I said. I know you have more to say than that, but I will respect Mita's wishes." He punctuates this with a soft 'hmph!', hefting his sister up onto his back with the picnic basket swinging from the crook of his arm. "I'll see you before the next game that Camp has planned, yes?"
[ Just re-read my character forms and remembered that Mita has narcolepsy. Whoops lol So I'm just sliding that in...
It's psychosomatic so she puts herself to sleep whenever she feels uncomfortable or overwhelmed. When they were kids she'd do it whenever she spent too much time around Momo and he was Highly Offended lol He used to call her 'Possum' instead of 'Mouse' but it made her cry too much pfft ] |

Nat nodded,”yeah, count us in for your team,”she agreed, grimacing a little at the mention of a traitor amongst their midst. It wasn’t something people wanted to say out loud but it was what many campers were definitely thinking. “Maybe we should have a handful of people from our team tasked with looking out for anything unusual?”she suggested. “I can definitely sleuth and stay nearly invisible during the game.”Nat volunteered, knowing very well that she was good at staying in the shadows and very handy in archery. Stealth was one of her strong suits. |

“Great. That gives Aphrodite two of the biggest cabins on our team.” Echo said with a smile, continuing to walk again. She changed direction, slowly leaving the forest line behind them and more into the camp. At Nat’s suggestion, Echo gave a nod of agreement, “Yes, I was thinking along the same lines. But I think we should keep it contained to a small group of us. Too many and we run the risk of this traitor finding out about our little investigation.” She already had a clear idea on who she would trust the most to carry out this task and planned on drawing them in on all of this rather soon.
“Not my fault that I inherited my mother’s brains along with father’s brawn.” Nathaniel said with his signature smirk, his eyes scanning the room and possible places for them to set their trap. “First things first. We’re gonna have to hide our scent. You can bet that thing is gonna catch a whiff of us as soon as he comes back. Once we do that, I think one of us should take a higher position while the other takes the lower.” He said, stepping away from the room. There was bound to be some trash around the place that they could use to hide their demigod scent.
“I don’t like running into something head first without a solid plan.” Horus responded, setting aside his own teacup and moving out of Momotarou’s way as he cleaned up, “Speaking of being a Counselor, I have some duties I have to attend to. Don’t worry, I’ll consider your words carefully. It was good to see you again, Minamoto. I’ll see you again soon.” He said in farewell, raising a hand to wave at them.
I love that lol I like the sibling relationship that your characters have, it’s fun to read ^.^)

We know where we’re needed.” Lyra nodded tersely, before she glanced over at Levin. “You sure you want to go through with this? It’s a risky play.” “Please, risk is my middle name.” Levin purred, crossing his arms lazily under his chin. “Besides, it’s the best way we can get everyone’s noses off of Nathanial’s back. I can tell many campers already want to go hunting for whoever let those beautiful beasts in.” He grinned, lip curling. |

Really makes it feel like home away from home.” Mathias snarked, before he shrugged and relented to Nathanial’s plan. “What are you feeling today, high ground or low ground? I’ll be nice and let you pick.” He offered with a snort. |

Nat nodded at her,”I agree, that would be best,”she said. Having a traitor among them meant that if they even got a whiff of people seriously investigating the matter, they could be in real danger. “We could get some good intel…”she started, turning to Echo with a mischievous smile tugging on her lips,”and…ya know…win at the same time,”she added with a smirk.
Christian looked at Levin,”what do you think they’re going to do to you?”he asked, raising an eyebrow. He was slightly concerned, even though he wouldn’t voice it nor show it at all. But this was his way of caring.
