”I’ve had just about enough socializing as it is.” Nathaniel said, giving a roll of his eyes. It was annoying enough having to keep up appearances in front Juniper and the other campers all the time as it is, and finding a quiet place around here wasn’t an easy task either. Nathaniel let a small smirk grow on his face as Levin revealed the good news, his eyes watching the glowing pendant closely. “I wanted solid proof before I started making any plans. It never hurts to be too careful.” He said, already eager to see just what kind of possibilities this would bring to his plans. “Now we just need to find a way to bring this power under our control. I would hate for it to just go to waste in this useless camp.” “As if that’s a challenge for the brilliant Nathanial.” Levin sang, clearly being bold enough to be sarcastic, yet his demeanor was welcoming to his ally. He put his hands behind his back and rocked on his heels, before he reminded. “She doesn’t like me. Instincts, probably. She can tell I’m tricky, I’d have to be an idiot not to see that. But, she’s desperate when that power activates. Desperate enough that it just might override that mistrust.” Levin shrugged airily. “I wasn’t there when the twins led your batch of monsters to the camp, or when Lilith staged herself as the main and only aggressor of that attack, but I was told that her powers activated when her brother was impaled on a vine like a fork to a slab of steak. Which, wow! What a trooper for that little firecracker, there’s so little of him in person that I’m shocked he didn’t just snap in half from that!” He crooned, before he offered in a knowing purr. “We could always use him as a trigger again. Maybe this time she’ll hurt someone when she uses that power trying to keep him safe. Oh, she’ll feel so guilty, “I’m a monster, guys, I need to control my power”.” He imitated. “See? Guilty. And Guilt can drive you to do crazy things. Like trust me, a son of Hectate.” His teeth gleamed through his smile. (here it is, Ice!) |

"Well as long as you've got all of your shots you have nothing to worry about." Josie reached out and ruffled his like a puppy dog, letting out a light laugh as she did so. She shoved here hands into the back pockets of her shorts afterwards, smiling and letting her head tilt. "Do you miss it? The city?" She asked as she looked around, taking in the surrounding area. "I grew up in Seattle for a while, but my mom liked to move around a lot to keep monsters off our trail. We were living outside of Salt Lake City when our home was destroyed and she told me about camp." A sort of sad smile pulled on the corners of her mouth and she shrugged. "It's been nice just to be living in one place for a while." - - - - "Please, by all means, if you ever want to visit my cabin there's always someone playing music or practicing their instrument. You're more than welcome to stop by!" Melody said rather enthusiastically. Her cabin wasn't exactly crowded like some of the others, but it was constantly filled with noise. In all honesty, Melody loved it. She didn't like to be in silence too long, except for when she was reading. Then her brows lifted and she sat up a little straighter. "I wouldn't mind at all! I'm sure the others wouldn't mind either." She started to stand and leaned over to grab her bag, slinging the tote over her shoulder. "I just need to stop by my cabin real quick to change. Think it might just be me until curfew, I can't remember if anyone else is on the schedule."
"See! That's what I'm saying." Juniper said with a laugh, looking ahead as the dining pavilion came into view. It looked like it was a little busy, she tried to keep an eye out if there was anyone already sitting at the Aphrodite table. Then she immediately turned her head to look at Tate when she asked about Nathaniel. "Good, things are going good." She said with a perfectly practiced smile. That was her automatic response nowadays. Truth be told they didn't see each other much as of late, and she knew the true origins of the monster attack. She had sworn up and down to Nathaniel that she wouldn't tell anyone tell anyone, not even her half siblings. It was starting to kill her a little inside, especially because of the chaos the monsters caused, and the injured campers that came out of it. Nathaniel told her it'd be a harmless little prank, and she thought maybe he'd only release a hellhound or something, not a whole horde. When she confronted him about it she was told it accidentally got out of hand. She didn't really know what else to believe. "Can you believe we've been dating for almost three years?" Juniper's asked proudly, actually impressed with herself as well that they'd been together for so long. That was another reason why she was still hanging on. Breaking up just sounded like it would make things complicated.

“Course I miss it. It was easier to deal with Monsters with powers like mine, but… soon it gets too destructive. I can’t bring that kinda damage to it anymore, till this monster crap is all handled.” Malcom shook his head to muss his hair back into place before he looked to the side. “I’m sorry to hear about your home. That’s gotta be rough. But, hey. You have a brother in me now, so you ain’t alone.” He promised.
Lloyd smiled at that, standing from his own chair and promising. “I’ll put on some better clothes, and come by in a few minutes. Your Cabin sounds alot more interesting than mine.” He chuckled, easily social and easily satisfied by even the smallest of invitations. “If I take too long, feel free to scold me.”

Thanks!)
Nathaniel had pulled out his pocket knife as Levin spoke and was expertly flipping it around his fingers, an old habit of his that he tended to do when he was thinking. “Salem was a valuable asset, it was shame that she disappeared like she did.” He said, a light scowl on his face. Many of his plans had revolved around the girl and her powerful abilities, and thanks to her sudden disappearance, he had to make several adjustments to some of the plans he had already put into motion. Luckily, Nathaniel was adaptable, so he wasn’t all that concerned about the changes. But perhaps with this new discovery, he just might be able to salvage what he had already started.
“Targeting Kyo might be pushing it too far. So if we go down that road, we’ll have to be very careful on how we go about it. We have time, so let’s come up with a solid strategy before we start something, alright?” He continued, spinning his pocket knife on last time before he stopped and pushed off of the tree he had been leaning against. Putting his knife away, Nathaniel reached into one of the bushes near him and picked up a rough canvas knapsack that he had hidden there, “For now, do what you can to gain her trust. That shouldn’t be all that hard for you, will it?” He said before tossing the bag to Levin, “And in the meantime, I have another special little project I’d like your help with.” Hiding inside the bag, wrapped up in large piece of cloth was a large, beautifully crafted collar made up of a special kind of metal and leather.

He held it in his hand as he snickered. “Easier said than done, when she tells me to get lost everytime I try and be an upstanding little camper. But, if it will make you happy, I’ll do my very best.” He crooned, pursing his lips dramatically before he placed the collar in his hand and gasped wickedly. “Nathanial!” He sang in a salacious tone. Inspecting the collar, he already had an idea of what this was based on their many previous talks, but he couldn’t help but joke. “I didn’t think you were interested in this kind of activity! I’m very flattered, but my my, what would Juniper say about this?” He teased wickedly, before holding the priceless item carefully next to his neck. “Does it match my eyes, Nate?” |

|| Reiner Logan Archer || 19 || Cabin #7/Apollo || Reiner stands at about 6’1” and very much has a handsome, masculine face, his jawline sharp and strong. He usually has a neat and trimmed beard on his face, making him look a scruffy. Reiner has broad shoulders and is built all over, his skin being fair but with a warm tone. His hair is a lighter dirty blonde color, wavy and short in length, but being a little longer in the front. Usually, it is pushed back messily or falling with a split down the middle. Reiner has deep-set eyes that are light brown. He can often be seen wearing solid t-shirts, crewneck sweaters, and hoodies over a fitted pair of jeans or joggers. || If you thought Reiner was cocky because of his smug face, you were probably right. Despite that though, he’s known to be reliable, filling the big brother role to those in his cabin if they ever so need it. The smugness comes from knowing that he is handsome, but he’s not necessarily a flirt. In fact, he’s not very good at flirting at all. He isn’t easy to rile up, but does sometimes have moments where he does. When that does happen and he’s angry, it’s intense. Generally speaking though, he’s actually a calm and steady guy. He’s respectful to mostly everyone and is the kind to retaliate only if he feels hostility towards him. He enjoys listening to music like most children of Apollo and likes to work out when he is stressed. His biggest flaw can definitely be his truthfulness and trusting nature, sometimes revealing too much and it working against him. || Photokinesis, Hemokinesis, and Osteokinesis || Reiner being a son of Apollo was naturally drawn to archery, and is skilled with the bow and arrow. But he also enjoys the brute strength using a sword. || Reiner came to camp when he was 12. After a scary and scarring experience where he accidentally snapped a bone of a student in school, he was made aware of his gifts, and learned the truth about his father. He came to Camp Half-Blood in hopes of understanding more about his kind and learning to control his powers. || Other || xoxoJade ||

Quinn gave a small smirk at the suggestion. “Steal some new toys? Hell yeah I’d love too.” She agreed before ducking back in her cabin for a minute to grab a few things before stepping back out. “Let’s go.” She said. “Let’s see what we can do.”
Robin huffed. “I’m just going down to the practice dummies.” She said. “I need to punch a few things and work on my aim.” She had been a little off earlier and it was bothering her.
Drake smiled lightly before setting a course for the lake. “Challenging a child of Nike to a competition?” He laughed lightly. “You don’t know what you’re getting into today.”

Drake smiled lightly before setting a course for the lake. “Challenging a child of Nike to a competition?” He laughed lightly. “You don’t know what you’re getting into today.” “You’re literally perfect.” Lyra giggled, rolling her shoulders as she thrilled in doing something like this. She swatted Christian’s shoulder and reminded. “If things go south, we use the light tricks. Flashbang, or the good old illusion confusion.” She teased, knowing that Christian was better at the latter, and she was better at the former, though both of them could manipulate light and color well. (Gonna respond with Kyo as soon as the 3 siblings get brought back to camp) “Ohh, I’m looking forward to it! Because you’re looking at the daughter of the Goddess of Revenge! And that means I’ll get you back if you do win.” Evelyn teased, winking at Drake before her face flushed lightly, and she laughed a bit. Looking forwards again, she bit her lip before speaking confidently once more. “You look great, you know. Good! But you always look good… oh, god. Bear with me, please.” She ran her hand across her eyes as she sighed at her own flustering. |

Rey’s resolved steeled when she felt Nova shake behind her. She wasn’t going to let this happen. She needed to get her out. “Ok fine we will go.” She relented before grabbing Nova’s hand. She moved a few steps before making a dash for the door.

Nat hopped out of the bus after the rest of the group, standing nearby to Echo and Kumiko, glancing around at their surroundings. She glanced up at the tall buildings before them, a small smile making its way onto her face as she felt some of the tension related to recent events of camp leave her. Nat stretched a little bit and moved to tie her dark hair into a high ponytail, enjoying the cool air that hit her neck and taking in the busy atmosphere of the city. She turned her attention back towards her friends, open to doing whatever they wanted to do. Nat was dressed comfortably for their outing, wearing a fitted beige crew-neck t-shirt with long sleeves, over light washed straight-legged jeans and a simple pair of white sneakers. Of course, she did have some daggers and a disguised charmed sword tucked away in the leather bag slung over one shoulder. Just in case. Icefire15 / Foxstar26 / Moonblazer—————— Tatum smiled softly at Juniper, taking her word for it, not being the kind to press her friends of half-siblings too much. “It’s impressive. I didn’t imagine Nathanial to be a long term relationship kind of guy, to be honest. So it surprises me. But I’m happy for you guys that it’s still going great,”she commended warmly. She led Juniper towards where the food was laid out, just grabbing some fruit, not being too hungry. “Are you okay though?”she asked anyway, turning her eyes back on her half-sibling,”you seem like you’ve been a bit out of it lately…or anxious,”she said, having noticed Junioper being more skittish and in deep thought lately. 𝚛𝚊𝚒𝚗𝚢—————— Christian followed close behind the girls, grateful to finally have a little bit of excitement. Christian grinned ear to ear at his sister,”of course, the three of us will make the perfect team. And if necessary, I can pretend to be on of their residents. Not for long, but long enough for you guys to get out of there unnoticed while I distract,”he said, appreciative in this moment for his shape-shifting/illusionist powers. Foxstar26 / Moonblazer |

(Gonna pause my cloned characters for now so that we can finish up this little side plot and so that things don’t get confusing in the rp lol) “What part of no do you brats not get?” Snarled their foster father, glaring down at the two girls menacingly. Now he was sure that they were purposely pushing his buttons, and he was starting to lose his patience and temper with them. Nova reached out and grabbed the back of Rey’s shirt with a shaky hand, nervousness starting to make her heart race. Their foster father had a real mean streak when he was angry, and she had seen what he was capable of when he’d finally had enough of their antics. “M-maybe we should go back upstairs.” She whispered quietly, looking up at her older sister. ————————— Kumiko stepped down from the bus that had carried them into the big city, looking around excitedly as she waited for the others to get off the bus as well. “So, what should we do first?” She asked Jacob, looking at him expectantly. Phoenix sighed as she followed after the others, starting to feel a little less tense now that they had left the camp behind them. Maybe getting out of camp and leaving the stress of her recent problems for a little bit was what she needed after all. Echo waited for everyone else alongside Kumiko, glancing around at her surroundings carefully. Always the cautious one, she kept a sharp eye out for anything that posed a threat to her and her friends. Roxana followed her half-siblings off of the bus, sticking close to Kyo and sending a shy look over to Shard every now and then when she was sure that he wasn’t looking. She shivered lightly in the much cooler air here in the city, no magic borders keeping the cold away from them here. Roxana adjusted her big scarf quickly, looping it around several times until all anyone could see was the top part of her face. Kyo glanced at Roxanna, eyes widening a bit as he realized she was still looking over at Shard every few seconds. Covering his mouth to hide his coy smile, he quietly laughed to himself. It was alot easier to watch his siblings be infatuated than it was to think about his own crush on Robin. He blinked away a slight blush, before he opted to speak to Phoenix. “I saw Lenny go into the forge earlier. Did he ask for something?” He asked Phoenix quietly. |

Jacob just gave a shrug of his shoulders. “I dunno.” He said with a small yawn, putting his hands on his hips. “I guess we can go look for some food? I’m starving.” He admitted with a small chuckle.
Shard hadn’t notice Roxana looking at him. “Whatcha wanna do?” He said to no one in particular. He just wanted to do something.
—
Quinn nodded her head. “I brought my tools so I can get us by any locks to anytbing.” She said walking up to the cabin. “So what’s the plan?” She asked, running a hand through her short hair. “Do y’all know if anyone is home?”
—
Drake gave her a smirk. “You’re on. I’m going to wipe the socks off uou!” He teased lightly. When she complimented him he blushed and looked away. “Oh uh thanks.” He stammered. Gods why was he acting like this? “You uh you look nice too.”

"That's also been my favorite part about coming here. Everyone's been like family, so it's really great to hear you say that." Josie reached out and gave his shoulder squeeze. She loved her mom, but it was a little lonely growing up just the two of them and moving constantly. It was a story she's sure she shared with plenty of other campers. Then she nodded back towards the Dionysus cabin. "Also, no one usually notices if you take the carrots towards the end of the rows. It's easier to take from their garden than the Demeter kids' cabin." - - - - "Anything clean is perfect, and I'd recommend some comfy, close-toed shoes." Then she laughed and nodded. "I'll think of a proper scolding if you are even a minute late!" Melody called out with a laugh as she walked away from his cabin and made her way back to her own. Like she'd mentioned before, she walked in to the gentle melody of somebody's music. She moved over to her bunk and changed into some jeans, with some swirly suns hand painted on the back pockets and up the legs of the slightly flared pants. Then she threw on a camp shirt and put her long black hair up into a ponytail. After putting on some sneakers she left to wait on the porch for Lloyd.
As they approached the food line, Juniper dropped Tatum's arm and looked over the spread. She started to grab some fruit as well, realizing that she was hungrier than she thought. As she reached out to grab a turkey sandwich, she hesitated at Tate's questioning. After placing the sandwich on her plate she let out a sigh, tucking a strand of hair behind her ear. "Can't hide anything from you, huh?" She said with a soft smile, then shrugged. "I think I'm just nervous about the upcoming capture the flag. Like, what if more monsters break in?" It wasn't entirely a lie. The monster attack had shaken up all of camp, and while she didn't think there were any more monster pranks in the future, Juniper was finding that things were turning a little too unpredictable for her.

Nathaniel rolled his eyes at Levin’s flirty teasing, not finding it amusing in the slightest. “Get over yourself. It’s something that will help us in the long run, we just need to get it to work.” He said, a steely look entering his eyes and his normally easygoing tone of voice changing to a more dangerous one. This little creation he had commissioned would certainly be a game changer, and he wanted to make sure the son of Hecate took this task seriously. “Monsters aren’t easy to convince to join up with a bunch of demigods, so I need a way to make it so that they’ll obey me and be loyal only to me. The test run I conducted was less than satisfactory, so I would like you to come up with a way to make it work better.” He instructed, stepping towards the son of Hecate and placing a large hand on his shoulder, giving it a slight squeeze with just enough power to show just how serious he was about this. “I expect some good results, so don’t you dare disappoint me.”
Stepping past Levin and started walking away before he came to a sudden stop and looked over his shoulder at Levin, his face suddenly changing back to the friendly and easygoing mask he usually wears around the other campers, but the same steely, cold flint stayed in his eyes, “Ah, and one more thing. Don’t you dare bring Juniper up again, understand?” And with that final warning, the son of Ares made his departure and disappeared into the forest, leaving Levin behind him.

Nova blinked in surprise when Rey grabbed her hand and made a sudden bolt for the door, not expecting this sudden turn of events. “W-wait, what?” She squeaked, trying to hurry after her much faster sister. This wasn’t how this was supposed to go! Glancing over her shoulder back at their foster parents, Nova tensed up when she saw him racing after them, his hand raised to grab her before they could escape. Thinking quickly, she grabbed one of the glass cabinets by the door filled to the brim with glass figurines, something their foster mother had an obsession over, and gave it a harsh yank. The glass cabinet crashed down behind them with a large shattering noise, effectively blocking their foster father from following after them as quickly as he had been.
—————————
“Food sounds nice. I bet you there are plenty of good food trucks around the shopping district that are still open.” Kumiko suggested, looking at the others to see what they all thought.
Echo gave a nod of agreement, just glad to be away from camp for a while. “I could eat. We can probably check out some of the shops too while we’re at it.” She added into Kumiko’s suggestion.
Roxana quickly looked away from Shard again when she noticed Kyo had seen her looking, not wanting to give her half brother any ideas. It was just a silly little crush she had, there was no way Shard would ever consider her in that kind of way. “W-well, if we’re going to some sh-shops, do you think w-we can find some a-antique shops?” She asked, looking first at Jacob and then Kyo hopefully. Antique shops always held some rather interesting stuff and she enjoyed finding things that could be repurposed into something else.
Phoenix heaved a tired sigh, the thought of Levin only making her feel frustrated, “He needed his sword to be fixed, and unfortunately, I was the only one there to fix it.” She said with a huff, excluding the part about how she had only helped him so that the boy didn’t try to go to Kyo or Roxana for help instead. Phoenix didn’t trust the guy and there was no way she was going to let him anywhere near the two shyer members of her cabin.

And we saw no smoke coming from the Forge. Maybe it’s a break day.” Lyra answered, taking a longer way around to be less likely to be spotted. “No lights on, it looks. Only one I’m not sure about is Blaze.” Evelyn was cheering wildly in her head at Drake’s response. He thought she looked good? Yes!!! She gave a somewhat dorky little laugh before she admired the dirt on the ground. “You sure know how to make a girl blush. It’s me. I’m a girl. Look, uhm. Sorry, if I’m coming off too strong, I’m usually not so bad at this part. I know I’ve been like. Dancing around you for months now. I’m just surprised you haven’t told me to buzz off yet.” She admitted. |

Anyone can be my family. I got cousins and aunts and uncles who ain’t even related by blood back home. Sunday dinners were nuts.” Malcom humored, before his eyes lit up as he looked back at the carrots. “No kidding. I’ll grab one on the way back, they won’t miss it. Thanks for the pro tip, super spy.” He snickered. Lloyd took Melody’s instructions to heart as he changed into a very clean outfit. Closed toed shoes and all. Picking up one of his many notebooks and pens, he stepped out of the Hebe cabin and sauntered right on over towards Melody. “Outfit’s better, I promise, but am I late?” He humored, smile bright and warm. |

Levin’s eyes flashed ever so slightly as the mood of the interaction changed completely. His own snarky humor turned dark with muted submission, if only to avoid physical altercation. While his magic was strong, Nathanial was too close for him to conjure it fast enough for a protective attack. There was a reason that everyone followed Nathanial, be it respect or fear. Levin found himself unable to tell what his own feeling was. Rather, he grit his teeth behind his lips at the squeeze of his shoulder.
Smiling tersely, Levin glowered. “Of course. You know I understand how important it is. I’ve never broken an artifact before, I won’t do it now. Trust me, Nathanial. I’m the Hectate child you thought Salem would be. Let me show you.” He implored, finally breathing out as he was let go. Saluting with two fingers lazily in the air, he responded. “Crystal clear. No more mentions.”
—-
Ryder’s eyes widened as he heard the crashing and the running. He cussed quietly, making a mad dash for the door and waiting for his sisters to come out. He called sharply. “Come on! Hurry, let’s go!”
—-
Kyo’s eyes lifted at the mention of food and antique stores. He spoke, quiet yet polite. “I’m happy going anywhere. But, antiques sound nice.” He insisted, before his attention was drawn back to Phoenix. His eyes flickered with light concern.
“Is he still making you feel uneasy? Usually you’re fast to get along with nearly anyone… he’s seemed friendly. Uhm… very friendly.” He admitted a bit sheepishly, having been often talked to excitedly by the Iris son, as though Lenny wanted to pull him around and be close to him often. He shook it off as a custom difference, though he was more concerned about Phoenix’s unease. “Did he do anything to make you uncomfortable?” His voice lowered carefully. He knew he was shy, but his instincts as an older brother had never died when his little sister had, even though Phoenix was the older sibling in this situation.

“Food sounds great. I can smell the street food from here!”Nat agreed, sniffing the air a bit and feeling her stomach quietly rumble in response. She glanced around at some the shops too, excited to take a look. It had definitely been a while since she’d been in the city and shopped for anything. Nat glanced at Roxana, hearing her quiet question, although not directed at her,”I’m sure there are some antique stores around,”she encouraged lightly. Icefire15 / Foxstar26 / Moonblazer —————— Tatum nodded in understanding, sympathetic to Juniper’s concerns. “I get it. I think everybody is on edge ever since it happened. I mean, if they can get in once, they can definitely do it again…and honestly everyone seems to agree that they believe someone let them in on purpose. But who here would do such a thing like that? It just feels so…traitorous,”she sighed heavily, clearly bothered by the idea that someone in camp, or a few people couldn’t be trusted. 𝚛𝚊𝚒𝚗𝚢 —————— Christian stretched his arms out over his head, before bringing his hands back to crack his knuckles. “Blaze shouldn’t be a problem, if he does end up there. Worst comes to worst, if one of you can’t distract him, I can shape-shift into his girl, and kiss him for a minute or too,”he shrugged at both the girls, shamelessly. xD Moonblazer / Foxstar26 / Flamestar96 —————— |

Lyra’s eyes widened as a grin crossed her face. She clicked her tongue, voice secretive as she whispered. “Oh my god, Christian, you could just say you want to kiss him, no need to do all these gymnastics. You’re gonna have to fight Josie for him though!” She cackled, nearly doubling over.

Rey looked back over her should when Nova knocked the cabinet over. She gave a short laugh before almost slamming into the door. She fumbled with a knob a moment before swinging the door open into Ryder. She shiver Nova forward towards their brother. “Hurry!” She shouted. “Run!”

“Maybe we could split up a bit?” Jacob suggested, wanting alone time with Kumiko. “We could split up and meet back here in like an hour?” He suggested, shifting his weight on his feet.
Shard looked toward Roxana before answering Jacob. “Yeah that sounds fine!” He spoke. “I’ll go look at antiques with you.” He flashed her a charming smile. “Maybe I can find something interesting.”

Drake rubbed the back of his head awkwardly. “What do you mean dancing around? We’re friends? Why wouldn’t I want to hang out with you?” He asked with a frown. He was completely oblivious to her feelings for him.

Christian snorted in laughter at her response,”Pleaaaase, why would I fight her when I could just kiss her as him to make up for it and call it even,”he cackled, thoroughly smug about using his powers to be a menace. He looked at Quinn again thinking about their plan,”I definitely think you should sneak into the cabin,”he told Quinn,”one if us can stand guard and I’ll be prepared to shift if it gets scrappy?”he suggested.

Quinn just rolled her eyes at Christian. “That plan has no faults in it what so ever.” She said with a small laugh. “I guess we will just hope for the best then. If there’s no smoke I doubt Blaze is there anyway.” She said. “Come on let’s go.”

Her face was red, but she was laughing lightly. “Yes, that’s true. I love being your friend, and I hope you love being mine. Uhm…” She trailed off, able to see the lake from where they were. She swallowed, wanting to be daring. “Okay. Beat me in stone skipping, and I’ll tell you exactly what I mean. Does that sound good?” She offered, heart racing. |

“Glad we’ve got a good plan. I’ll go in with you Quinn, and keep an eye on the inside doors and paths. Make sure nobody’s walking around. I’ll signal to you with a little rainbow if things go south.” Lyra nodded to Christian, signaling that he would be able to rush in with an illusion trick if she needed him to while he was standing guard. She grinned. “I wanna grab a necklace too. I know they make jewelry too, I want some.”
