Lucien had stayed in his room, largely unconcerned by the stuff going on downstairs. Spending time with the others wasnβt something he wanted right now, he just wanted to play his music on his guitar and relax for a while before food. This whole thing has been a lot to process and he didnβt think heβd be able to process it around the chaos of the others.
Instead, he began to play. Soon the chords were joined by words. Lucien wasnβt the singer in the band heβd been in, he didnβt consider himself quite that good. But his voice was nice. Nothing exceptionally amazing, but pleasant to listen to anyway.
βI'm from the east side of America Where we choose pride over character And we can pick sides, but this is us, this is us, this is I live on the west side of America Where they spin lies into fairy dust And we can pick sides, but this is us, this is us, this is
And don't believe the narcissism When everyone projects and expects you to listen to 'em Make no mistake, I live in a prison That I built myself, it is my religion
And they say that I am the sick boy Easy to say, when you don't take the risk, boy Welcome to the narcissism Where we're united under our indifference
And I'm from the east side of America Where we desensitize by hysteria And we can pick sides, but this is us, this is us, this is I live on the west side of America Where they spin lies into fairy dust And we can pick sides, but this is us, this is us, this isβ
And as he sang, he felt a strange feeling. It was like happiness, but he knew it wasnβt his. Happiness was like warm sunshine or a cheerful fire. This felt like a candle, warming him but from a distance.
Was it Apolloβs happiness? He thought so. It made sense to him that his playing of that music might have pleased the god. Maybe the godβs emotions were somehow bleeding through, or Apollo chose to let Lucien feel some measure of his emotions to let the boy know that he was happy.
That song, it had meaning to Lucien which he preferred not to think about too much. But it was important to him and he was pleased to be able to play it, and on his own guitar as well.
(Okay there was literally no point to this other than to add in a song to give the rp a nice vibe. The song has lots of parts that could fit lots of our characters, and Iβll probably end up doing some writing based on it. But so far Iβm just putting a little song in here.
Song - Sick Boy by the Chainsmokers)

It was nice to see Echo seeming to grow more confident for a little, even feeling like she could speak up and talk. That was good.
βYouβre welcome,β Chiara smiled
She thought Riverβs words time Echo were really nice, actually, and that surprised her a little. She hadnβt really expected this from River, but then again it wasnβt like she truly knew him. They were all pretty much strangers right now.
βHeβs right, you should have more confidence, more faith in yourself.β
Then River said he was going to go, and Chiara offered him a nod in response. It did seem like a good idea for him to at least get the blood off him before they had food. And well, if he wanted to look for a way out of here she wasnβt going to stop him. They all didnβt want to be here.
βAlright,β she said βIβll stay here with Echo and weβll see you later.β
Once he was gone, Chiara turned her attention back to Echo, giving the girl a gentle smile.
βHow are you feeling now, Echo?β she asked βBetter?β

Guinevere Sharpe
Her eyes skimmed all the new faces, sipping her coffee, and smiling just slightly as Pascal downed his own like it was a shot. She shot him a quick, brave wink, not flirtatious in nature at all, but as a method of connection. She had done that many times, and the poor guy seemed panicked enough as it was.
"I for one am going to probably go for Griffin, just because so far I can tolerate him, and maybe you Laurie," Heck if she knew, she was barely paying attention to the conversation earlier.
"It's smelling quite good though, I think he's almost done? I'm starved, so I'm ready to eat whenever," She added, also experiencing the hunger many probably shared. She hadn't eaten since breakfast, and who knows how long ago that was now?
She lightly drummed her fingers on the table, glancing around the the grand hall, she could already see it being home with a little work and improvement, of course.

Luka Ravana || Echo Deirdre
Dangit! He wasn't getting scared, which was a let down, she really wanted to use her ability to cause some kind of reaction. It didn't though, so she simply did the snake equivalent of shrug, eyes beady and blue as she bobbed her head.
"I'm the champion of Loki, my name isss Luka," She hated the hiss that came every time she said anything with an S in it. "Who are you, Hecate boy?"
Stupid kid was so nonchalant, but still company was company. Her posture relaxed, literally sunning on the ground with her tail bobbing in the air. The fact that she could still talk was surprising, but she summed it up to being magic, everything else seemed to be.
Though, the fact that transformation hurt as bad as it did, and the fact that she had no choice over it seemed like a major downside to her. She pondered past the thoughts, glancing over at Chiara and Echo.
Echo herself watched as River left, she had offered a final, real and bright beaming smile, her breathing under control, and a soft "Bye," escaping her, as she watched him leave.
Her gaze turned to Chiara, and she nodded in kind. Her smile, sweet and soft, was still there on her lips, and she didn't seem as frightened as before. However, it seemed that the snake in the room finally caught her attention, a startled noise escaping her. It's not like she was afraid of snakes, per se, it's just that the snake in particular seemed black and red and looked kind of like a it was dying, if Echo was honest. Either dead, or just extremely tired, Echo didn't quite know. Either way, it was odd, to say the least.

Can we add gods ever to the pantheon?

Or from other mythologies. But if you want you can interact with Mercin)
Mercin glanced at the others. He didn't know if he should approach them or go to the forest. He shrugged. He started to walk to forest again.

( Mickey Mouse the 3rd : You can join with characters who are not listed on the front page. This was mentioned in various sections, including the Introduction section and as a note in every section of the Mythologies post. I suggest going and reading these sections, as a lot of work was put into compiling that information from Leo, Pallas, and myself, and as some of these things are crucial to the RP. Specifically, you might want to look at the sections for the Choosing, the Champions, and the Pantheon posts in particular. However, I ask that you read the front page in itβs entirety, thank you.)

Mercin stopped. He couldn't run away from this he was mad at his realization. He turned around. "Hello, my name is Mercin." He said steadily, unsure if he really wanted to introduce himself.

Lorenzo alexander || Guinevere Sharpe
Guinevere offered her smile in regards to Griffin, though she just shook her head. She'd rather stick to her own, and never quite held the needed abilities to lead. She was always more concerned with following the rules and making sure people knew not to mess with her. Sure, she was quite intimidating at times, but so often was she passive.
"Well, seems like us adults have it fall figured out, hopefully those kids aren't causing that much mayhem," Going off of what she saw with River and Lucien, she wasn't going to be too surprised if they found two dead bodies of the boys. Technically, River wasn't a kid, but it still seemed to fit in her mind.
A figure approached them, wide smile on their face, "I have dinner done, does anyone mind going and rounding up the others? Helios said there's an intercom somewhere, but I don't think he knows where at." Lorenzo piped up, mittens on his hands still, small steam rising from where he was holding the hot pans.
"So maybe I wasn't paying attention," Helios piped up, from within Lorenzo's mindscape, sounding sheepish, and yet still somehow sounding drugged.

When Lorenzo came to inform the group that the meal was done, Laurie was pretty excited. Not only did the food smell absolutely amazing, but Laurie was a big foodie. He was all about getting some nice food, plus he wasnβt sure how long it had been since he ate.
βSure, Iβll sort it out,β Laurie offered
He took one last sip of his coffee and headed back out of the kitchen while the rest of the group, Dillon included, made their way to the dining room. It took some direction from Dionysus (who, to be honest, didnβt seem to be much better informed than Helios), but Laurie soon found a little intercom on the bottom floor of the house.
Well, who didnβt like an intercom?
βOkay, calling all assholes to the dining room,β he said into the intercom βif you havenβt murdered one another, come get your food. Itβs survival of the fittest. First come, first serve. Get your butts down here.β
With that, he made his way towards the dining room, the sounds of echoing footsteps on the stairs following him. Within a couple of minutes not only was Laurie in the dining room, but so were Chiara and Lane.
Lucien followed a couple of moments after.
βWhose idea was it to put intercoms in this place?β he groaned as he entered the room
βLiteral gods who knew better than you and wanted the blessing of my beautiful voice calling you to every meal. Sit down, sunboy.β Laurie replies, folding his arms
Lucien just rolled his eyes, but took his seat without further comment. Chiara was already seated, as was Dillon. Lane had taken her seat too, but seemed in deep thoughtful. Her hand kept moving up the necklace around her neck.

Irene could see the smile slowly growing on Jasonβs face and couldnβt help letting out a bit of a laugh. At least he seemed to be calmed down a lot enough to find her statement a little bit amusing. When he asked about the book, she squinted and began to think. βItβs pretty popular from what I remember. Something about kids fighting each other for food. They made it into a series of movies as well, though Iβve never seen any of them.β She couldnβt remember the last time she stepped foot in a library, much less read a book. Soon, however, her attention was drawn to what seemed like an intercom. Oh, so this place had one of those things. She let out a sigh of annoyance and looked at Jason βYou need help getting to the dining hall?β she asked. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Pascal looked over at someone when they made a comment about how he drank, recognizing him as the guy whoβs leg heβd grabbed onto on arrival. βIβm aware itβs coffee. Iβm drinking it like coffee. Iβm not sure why you mentioned vodka,β He replied, staring blankly at him. After a moment, he looked back at Dillon βThereβs nothing to be concerned about, a single cup of coffee doesnβt do anything for me anymore,β he said in a matter-of fact tone before going to grab another pitcher of coffee. At this point in his life, heβd drinken so much coffee that it usually took him a few cups for the caffeine to actually sink in. Pascal noticed that the girl sitting near him was giving him a wink. He raised a brow, unsure how he was supposed to respond. He was really bad at reading faces and expressions. As he sat back down, pouring some more coffee into his cup, he noticed theyβd also been discussing something about a vote? They must have discussed it when heβd gone off on his own. Honestly, he didnβt know many people there, so heβd probably vote for Dillon. He seemed nice. When it was brought to his attention that food was done, Pascal lifted his head slightly. Actual food? It didnβt smell like a microwaved bowl of ramen so it must have been home-made. It smelt good at least.
(How aware should Hades and Pascal be about Laneβs soul being in a state of limbo? Hades would probably think something was up, but probably not the specifics of course. More like βsomething is up with her I can feel it, but Iβm not sure what it is at the momentβ)

(Yeah so Hades kind of just... has the general vibes. Something seems off but heβs not sure what. He might not even know which kid specifically it is who is giving him the weird vibes. But more and more stuff will come out about Lane for Hades to pick up on and realise whatβs happening)

Clementine Lester || Luka Rava || Echo Deirdre || Guinevere Sharpe || Lorenzo alexander
Lorenzo smiled in a simple reply, before pulling a cart out, mounted with food, and wheeled it to the dining room, where he was happy to find plates pretty much already set out. The guides really did have most of this planned and sorted out.
Clementine came in moment later, huffing as the sat down, crossing their legs under the table, and glaring at everyone and everything, lips set in a firm, plain line.
Guinevere simply followed the group, sticking near Ariella and Griffin, a cup of coffee still in her hands as she took her spot next to them, before glancing at the food, her mouth watering.
As Lorenzo was setting all the food on the table, Echo entered quickly and quietly, setting down something that had been covered by her jacket, before setting it on a chair nearby and taking her own seat, leaving one seat open in hopes that River would take it.
The object she had set down ended up slithering onto the table, sniffing at the food, before looking around.
Lorenzo continued to place foods on the table, though he froze as he spotted the snake, a scream escaping him and a wooden spoon sent flying at it. Luka dodged it, bending her body and curling up reflexively, a hiss escaping her.
"Bad snake!" Lorenzo reprimanded, voice cracking, "Bad bad snake."
Guinevere rolled her eyes, "Great, does this place not have pest control?"
Luka glared at her, curling into a ball, and laying her head in a glass of water that Echo had decided to place near her, she drank it, awkwardly, almost like a cat would, while still keeping her smugness. it seemed like she was kind of enjoying this, and like nothing was wrong with the situation at hand. "So, anything unique happen? No fightsss, right Luccc-Lu-Sunboy?"
