“Oh…well that’s really nice,”Spencer said, feeling slight apprehension sneak up on her at that piece of information. She liked having a new friend in Kumiko, but the idea of a close-knit friend group unsettled her. She always felt in that kind of situation, she wouldn’t be able to fit in. And that in her experience, close-knit groups really had a hard time integrating a new person. “Is that kind of how it is here in camp?..a lot of groups?”

Frances was tucked away not very deep in the forest, tending to a little mushroom garden she’d begun to grow herself. It had to be in a sort of secluded spot, somewhere moist so the fungi would be able to grow in abundance. Of course she could’ve used her powers to make them grow, but she wanted to try it the all natural way. ”Look at you guys, already a couple inches tall already!” She spoke excitedly to herself as she knelt over the little gardeners box that she’d lugged out into the forest all by herself. Frances stirred the soil a little to encourage new growth when suddenly a feeling crept up that she wasn’t by herself. Looking around, the daughter of Demeter slowly began to stand. For once she felt wary of the trees. Finally spotting the figure, Frances briefly thought it was Shadow who was lounging in the shade, but as she crept closer she recognized it to be Nathaniel’s. ”Gosh! Nathaniel you spooked me! I wasn’t aware that anyone else knew this area.” The younger girl greeted him with a gentle smile.

Juniper was usually excited to see any of her half siblings, but she enjoyed Tatum’s company more than most. Seeing that she was making her way over, the brunette turned and put on her pink flip flops so she would’ve be barefoot anymore. She met her cabin mate halfway and smiled, gesturing to her dress. ”Love this little runners outfit. How long have you been out?” She asked, reaching out to feel the material of the skirt. Juniper briefly wondered if she might join her on her walks sometime. A bit of light exercise might be a nice pass time for when she got bored of everything else.

Tatum smiled at Juniper looking down at her dress and then back up at her. “Not too long, maybe fifteen minutes. What have you been up to?”she asked, rolling up her earphones and tucking the little device away with it. Tatum looked down at her feet,”your nails look cute,”she added, admiring the neat pedicure.

Jared reached for a long sword. Normally he was a daggers kind of guy, but he often chose to practice with different weapons. “I haven’t wielded one of these in a little bit. What about you?”Jared nodded towards the array of weapons on the weapon rack. —————— Nat picked up her bow and quiver, swinging it over her shoulder and across so the strap was across her chest and the quiver resting against her back. “I don’t threaten, I just make promises,”she gave him one more with an inviting smile up at him, pulling her loose curls into a high pony tail. “And anytime. I’m ready for things to get back to normal, except I know that that’s very unlikely.”she murmured. The nagging feeling of wariness still hadn’t left her since the incidence, and it was indeed nice to think about something else for a bit. “I’ll take you up on that. The biting too,”she added with a little smirk. “Where are you off to now anyway?”she asked curiously, remembering that he had just appeared when her, Jared, and Sasha were competing. —————— Christian clapped a hand against Levin’s back. “Great job. Let us know how that meeting goes then with the big man,”he told him,”and we’ll work on Spencer.” He looked to his sister, “well, do you want to start that now. Or do you have any other plans right now?”he asked, crossing his arms and leaning against the bedpost. “I usually use this sword.” Sasha held her blade up again, dark steel and surprisingly elegant for the rough woman. “It’s my blade. Means alot to me. With it, I am victorious.” She teased, though it was clear she was well attached to her weapon. —- Mathias gave a long sigh. “I’m hoping to get an idea of what the next Capture the Flag strategy will be. Once again, Nathanial’s been anywhere but where I want him to be to talk to him, make sure he gets it that I’m not leading anyone this time. If he flakes like he did last time, someone’s getting their ass beat.” He growled, before taking a breath to calm his temper. “I’ll keep wandering until he shows up, I guess. So, I’ll have to put your invitation on biting on hold, just for a little while.” He grinned again. —- “Expect nothing less from a trickster.” Levin purred, before he stood up from his seat. With a wave of his hand, a glimmer of magic escaped him. His body seemed to flutter, before wisping away into smoke as he used his magic for his teleportation. Safe from the view of other campers, he would not be seen using his true magic. Lyra rolled her eyes and groaned. “So unfair. I’d kill to teleport!” She shook her head before focusing back on her brother. “I’ve got nothing else to do. Besides Spencer, I guess we could start thinking about other kids who could fit the bill. Big Three kids of course, but anyone else? Nathanial wasn’t all that specific about recruiting.”

Oh, I forgot, I also have Lucille, my Dionysus daughter, and Malcom, my Zues son, open as well. Idk if they were added yet, but they’re open too. Any preference?)

(oooh, either one could be fun to interact with! I think Claude and/or Melody with Lucille could be interesting, for Malcom i have my Lewis starter, or maybe some half-sibling interaction with Josie. Or i was thinking either Lewis or Melody with Lloyd. so, a few options lol i’m not picky either way. you can choose what you think sounds interesting to you or i can pick 🤗)

Jared gazed in appreciation at the sword, admiring its dark color. “Elegant,”he said simply, impressed. “All right, well let’s go,”he agreed, making his way to an open space and turning to face her. He grinned, getting into a fighting stance with his sword, grey-blue eyes flashing as he felt the energy of an impending fight start creeping in. ——————
Nat nodded,”Well, good luck with that. Nathanial does seem to be pretty scarce these days. And god knows that you can’t lead a team”she teased. “See you around then,”she told him starting to walk off in the direction of the dining pavilion. “Oh, and we’re going to kick your asses,”she added quickly, with a little wave goodbye as she departed. ——————
Christian watched Levin disappear, somewhat feeling his sister’s envy as well. Making illusions was cute and everything but not all that useful. He looked towards her with a small shrug. “Well, anyone seemingly with a strong enough grudge against the gods. We have a lot of those. We just gotta get people talking.Maybe we could head to the dining pavilion. We could learn a lot from waves dropping on conversations,”he suggested. He had also been learning to use his reflections of light to render himself nearly invisible to the eye.

So I actually have my Ares girl’s form I finally finished up too. But I’m going to change her last name. Hope it looks good?)
|| Emilia Bernardi || 16 || Cabin #5/Ares || Emilia descends from a more wealthy Italian-American family and therefore looks the part, having olive-toned skin that is sunkissed and tan most of the time, silky black hair, and deep brown eyes. She also dresses with an air of wealthiness, casually wearing a pair of special gold tear-drop earrings combined with mostly clothes of good quality, such as linen and cotton. However she does train in mostly regular attire, such as denim and a regular t-shirt. || Emilia gives off the energy of what she looks like generally. Cool, collected, and even a bit intimidating with her resting face always looking dead-pan. However, when she does get worked up, her spicy Italian blood mixed with the blood of Ares makes her passionate, intense, and/or brutal in how she deals with others. And when in a more humorous mood, she can have a pretty wicked tongue. The values instilled in her by her family always conflicts with the god of war’s blood running through her veins, and she struggles with remaining collected and proper when at times she just wants to lash out. || Like all Ares children, she is gifted with increased strength and an ability to handle almost any weapon with skill. She has an ability to sense feelings of anger and rage, and can feel when a fight is brewing, like a sixth sense. || Emilia’s weapon of choice is two twin short swords, that she has a special holster to carry on her back when fighting or training. || For some time, Emilia believed her step-father to be her real father, her mother having had an affair with Ares. When her abilities started manifesting more and the difference between her and her family become more evident, it became known to her who her real parent was. With that, Emilia packed her bags and left to Camp Half-Blood, wanting to learn and accept this side of her. || Other || xoxoJade ||

He had also been learning to use his reflections of light to render himself nearly invisible to the eye. "I can be elegant sometimes." Sasha smirked, before she watched Jared with a calculating gaze. She suddenly lunged forwards, sword drawn in a swift arching strike downwards. She wanted to test the Ares son, often finding them to be the best ones to spar with. -- "I'd rather you do something else than kick it." Mathias called after her with a deep laugh, wolfish and snarky, before he waved once to her. His arm fell slowly as his expression grew more solemn once again. He took a long breath, running his hand through his hair as he resigned himself to looking for Nathanial once again. -- "Mm. Good idea. Food makes people talk. And I love gossip." Lyra conceded, turning briskly to open the cabin door and step out into the camp sunlight. She glanced around, offering a forced yet seemingly natural smile to everyone who passed by. Gods and Goddesses, this would be easy.

Malcom aimlessly poked around some of the Cabins, letting his curiosity get the better of him. Back in New Jersey, he would spend most of his free time exploring the abandoned buildings and areas where signs told him to turn back around. Right now, he was eyeing the lush gardens of the Dinoysus cabins, debating if he wanted to try and pull up a carrot or two. Thinking better of it, the son of Zues instead shrugged and moved on to the next cabin. He hummed a song as he walked, brows furrowed in his characteristically gruff demeanor. Lloyd found himself enjoying the breeze outside as he sat in one of the rocking chairs on the porch of his Cabin. With so few fellow Hebe kids, it was both lonely and calming, the lack of noise. He felt a bit bad for all the Ares and Aphrodite kids, how much noise and ruckus there could be when they argued amongst themselves. The youthful man glanced at his book, reading quietly.

Jared chuckled at her,”I don’t believe that for a second,”he taunted teasingly. Jared was quick to lift up his sword to block hers as it came down on him, not missing a beat. He was normally first to be on the offensive, so it was a refreshing change of pace to be charged at and inwardly, he acknowledged it with respect. In response, once he blocked the strike, Jared charged against her with the force of his sword against hers, aiming to forcefully send her backwards. ———
Hearing him call after her, Nat shook her head with a small laugh continuing on her path to the dining pavilion. She stopped at the Hermes cabin first to put away her weapons and then continued on her way, soon reaching the steps.
(she’s open now if anyone wants. Or doesn’t, I’m fine throwing her on the sidelines for now lol ———
Christian followed her lead, but not one to force friendliness, he offered polite nods to other campers as well, while they made their way. Inwardly, while he didn’t hate other campers, he seethed at the fact that so many of them held pride in being descendants of the selfish gods of Olympus. No one would guess by looking at him though that he held so much resentment in him.

“What, I can’t be elegant?” Sasha teased, her brow lifting as she recognized his attempt to force her back with his strength. She allowed the pushback for a moment, putting in her strain to push back. At the last second, she suddenly relented to the side, ducking to the right so his own force could send him forwards.
—-
Lyra noticed a few campers walking into the dining pavilion. She could already tell that Evelyn was helping in the kitchen today, with how active the pavilion was. Campers swarmed around like flies when she took charge in the kitchen. Though, Lyra doubted she would be much use. Evelyn, if anything, was a danger to the plan, if she had any inkling of the only ability Nemesis could offer, the ability to read if a person was honest or deceitful. Lyra steered clear of her unless to compliment her food. That, she could be honest about. Besides that, she was a powerless demigod. Even more so than Lyra herself.
“Smells good today. Wonder what’s on the menu.” Lyra mused to her twin.

(Okay I have caught up finally! LOL Sorry, legit did not mean to disappear last night or today. My brother and his gf got a flat tire and I had to go help him immediately cause Costco was the only tire center open at the time Then today was just a hectic.) If its cool, instead of having to clone Kumiko, maybe I can just slightly change Kassie's placement so Spencer and Kumiko just run into her after Kumiko fixed her hand. Like just come up with the excuse that she had to run back to the Hecate cabin for a "pressing matter" lol) Okay so currently, I don't fully have an idea, but maybe with what Moon has planned for the next step of the traitor. Shadow happens to find whatever it is and this sets him up for whomever to find him as a "wrong place, wrong time". From there he's outcasted even more and has to gain back the trust of those around despite fully knowing that what's happening isn't his fault.) ------------- "Valen is Valen, you just gotta catch him at the right moment. Sadly, that's how all us Hades' kids are," Shadow said with a small smirk. The Underworld offspring was similar to what the Asphodel Meadows represented. Souls wandered around never connecting with one another as their mortals lives where just mundane. "For instance, take Ava. From what I've gathered about her past, she's had it pretty rough and that's just molded her into the person she has become." His little half sister may have only been two years younger than him, but he would protect her just as if she was a little kid.

“Oh…well that’s really nice,”Spencer said, feeling slight apprehension sneak up on her at that piece of information. She liked having a new friend in Kumiko, but the idea of a close-knit friend group unsettled her. She always felt in that kind of situation, she wouldn’t be able to fit in. And that in her experience, close-knit groups really had a hard time integrating a new person. “Is that kind of how it is here in camp?..a lot of groups?” ”Hmm, I suppose there are a few groups.” Kumiko said with a small shrug, walking towards the food table. “People tend to hang out with people that they would trust to have their backs in a quest or if they’re ever outside of camp. But you don’t need to stick to just one group of friends, you know?” She added, noticing Spencer’s change of tone and giving her another bright smile. “And don’t worry, you’ll fit in great here and make some new friends before you know it! If you want, I can introduce you to the rest of my friends. They’ll be happy to get to know you!” Kumiko offered, more than happy to include her into her group of close friends.

Nathaniel looked up at the sound of Frances’ voice and gave her an easygoing smile, easily hiding the irritation he felt at her sudden appearance. Levin was supposed to be meeting him soon with news on his little side project, and he certainly didn’t need the daughter of Demeter overhearing the plans that he had been making. “Sorry about that, Frances. I didn’t realize there was anyone here.” He said, pulling himself to his feet with ease and leaning back against the tree. “Thought I would slip away from my half-siblings for a bit. Love them and all, but sometimes they can be a bit too rowdy for my tastes.” Nathaniel added with a small chuckle.

(well, I know that the next major plot point for the traitor plot is for Nakita to be kidnapped by a monster that is under Nathaniel’s control. We might do something else before that, but I’m not quite sure yet. I haven’t had much time to sit down and plan out the next steps on what to have Nathaniel do next lol but I’m sure that we’ll be able to find a way to fit a possible frame job for Shadow! ^.^) “Well, I’m sure I’ll find him sooner or later.” Echo said with a small shrug. She wasn’t too concerned on whether Valen accepted her offer or not, even though the help of the Hades’ cabin would come in handy for the game. Echo had more than enough help with the cabins that she had already recruited for her team. “Nothing wrong with that. I get it, trust me.” She continued with a small smile.

Spencer blushed, realizing Kumiko caught onto her change in demeanor. “Wow I’m really not good at hiding reactions am I?”she asked with a sheepish laugh. “Sorry, I guess I get kinda intimidated by friend groups,”she admitted, but then smiled brightly. “But you’ve been really cool and a huge help. I’d love to meet your friends,. Thanks for being so cool”she said with a small laugh.

“Don’t worry about it! I’m sure you’ll get on great with them, Connor already seems to be warming up to you.” Kumiko said, picking up a couple of plates and handing one to Spencer. “It’s not often that he’s willing to give a new camper some pointers unless you were part of his own cabin. Then again, I was the one who asked him, but he still could’ve said no if he didn’t want to.” She continued as she decided on what she wanted to have for lunch.

Spencer took the plate from her, looking at what they were offering for lunch. She smiled at her mention of Connor and that he seemed to be warming up,”He’s definitely interesting. It was nice of him to help me out with the spear,”she told Kumiko, thinking back to how she was so nervous that her shoulders were so tense. “Does he scare everyone?”she asked her,”or is that just me?”

Kumiko giggled as she grabbed a sandwich and a couple of fruits, putting them onto her plate. “Connor’s got a scary face, but he’s got a kind heart. Like I said, don’t let that gruff attitude of his fool you. He doesn’t really talk too much around people he doesn’t really know that well, so I suppose that can kinda come off as rude to some other people.” She explained, waiting for Spencer to get her food.
