Day One: Party!

[camphalf_blood]

[it's the summer solstice and a huge group of demigods safely made it to camp. This is clearly a good omen for things to come. The camp is alive with music and dancing. The satyrs are jamming on their lutes and the tree nymphs come out of the trees to dance. Everybody's invited!

The party will go on long into the night. It's all for you guys, so have a blast!]


[Mingle | Eat | Dance | Campfire ( go tag! and backtags on the tour post are still okay!)]

[ Wow! That pretty much does it! But... ]

Have you heard about the Cosmo?

[bornofwisdom]

Cosmo?

( there's a variety of things he could mean, so, she's lost on the specifics here. )

[sosweet]

[ Gazes at the sky. ]

As you may know, the universe was created as the result of an explosion that happened millions of years ago, the Big Bang. Saints are born and blessed with a superhuman energy thanks to a cosmic explosion that occurs within them.

With said energy they can open the lands and crash the stars.

[bornofwisdom]

( she watches as he talks. he's so passionate about it, it sort of sends tingles along her spine. )

...and that's called Cosmo?

[sosweet]

Yes.

[ It is then that his gaze begins to roam the ground and picks up a heavy and hard stone. ]

This is what we do with our strength.

[ And so he presses the stone with his bare hand and shatters in a lot of small pieces, all of them falling from his palm. With his other hand he massages the one he made use of. The camp sure did take most of his strength away. ]

[bornofwisdom]

( leaning to watch him, she widens her eyes when he crushes the stone with his hand alone. raising her brows she lifts her gaze to look at him. )

...that was kind of amazing. I've seen things like that before, but mostly Cyclopes or other creatures. Not humans.

[sosweet]

[ A satisfied smile once he tosses all the remaining stone dust from his hand. ]

All things are made ​​of atoms. Once you destroy them you destroy their atoms as well.

Only humans who are chosen by Athena to become Saints can do it.

[bornofwisdom]

Their atoms? ( she watches the dust get lost in the ground below ) You just annihilated that rock then.

All of her warriors can do things like that?

[sosweet]

I did, yes. The usage of our Cosmo depends on what we want to annihilate.

All the eighty-eight Saints of her Order have the ability to do so, guided by the protection of their guardian constellations.

[bornofwisdom]

Wait.
Can you annihilate anything you want to?

( whoooaa, eighty-eight? that's... a lot. thank gods there's just the one who's trying to be her knight right now. any more and she'd be having a heart attack. )

[sosweet]

Of course. Anything. If you have enough faith and trust in your Cosmo, even the Gods themselves.

[ Maybe Seiya and the other Bronze Saints would have been around her a lot >3~ ]

What else do you want to know?

[bornofwisdom]

( she raises her brows )

You can't kill the Gods...

( they can fade out of existence, but die? not really. at least, as far as she's learned and from what her mother has told her... )

[sosweet]

Only their vessels.

[ And even himself is as certain as her. ]

As far as I know, only Athena, Poseidon and Hades are the only ones who have made use of human bodies.

[bornofwisdom]

Really? That's interesting... I've seen all of the Gods in their human forms before, there have been a few times I've been granted an audience at their council in Olympus.

[sosweet]

[ Ohoh~o! Now that's quite interesting. ]

Oh? How are they like?

[bornofwisdom]

They're all pretty... Intimidating. Especially when you're with them all at once.

[sosweet]

And what about... your mother when she is with them?

[ Really. It is already weird enough calling Athena a 'mother'. ]

[bornofwisdom]

Mom is... ( she sighs gently ) Quiet, noble and wise, even just sitting upon her throne with the other Gods. She interjects when her council is needed and that's that, really. She's... So beautiful though.

( glancing off to the side, she shrugs gently )

...but she's intimidating, too. ( perhaps more than the other gods, if only because Athena is her mother and parents can be pretty daunting. )

[sosweet]

[ Listening to Annabeth talking about his Goddess is just as he remembers Holy Father Shion describing her.

And Saga can't help but look down with an expression filled with sorrow. He just hopes the Bronze Saints have made their way to her. ]

[bornofwisdom]

( lifting her gaze from where it had lingered in her talk of her mother, Annabeth frowns to him. why does he look so sad...? )

...Saga?

[sosweet]

[ After some moment, he blinks at the calling and looks back at her with a sheepish smile. ]

Many things happened back home. I'm just a little worried, that's all.

[ Even he wonders why is he trapped here... alive. ]

[bornofwisdom]

( she frowns and leans forward, gently touching her palm to his hand )

I'm sorry...

I... Don't suppose there's anything I can do to make you feel better?

[sosweet]

[ The contact startles him at first but gives in. She really is like her, but it's more than that. It's just that he can't remember his Goddess' face, albeit he does remember what he has done to her.

Saga doesn't want Annabeth to know... ever. She will be his reason to make amends for his past.

The Saint gives her a mournful smile. ]

... Your sole presence is enough for me.

[bornofwisdom]

( even his smile is tugging at her heartstrings. slowly she curls her fingers around his hand squeeze it comfortingly. )

Your smile is so full of sorrow. ( she frowns, but, forces herself to smile for him instead. ) Maybe we can work on making it look more happy.

[sosweet]

[ ‘You don‘t have to do this. I... I don‘t deserve it...‘

Her hand holding his is like an anchor that keeps him from drowning. He shouldn‘t feel so vulnerable before the person he‘s supposed to protect. ]

Annabeth, I... [ Out of words. Definitely. ]
