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!)]

[ Mouth open and staring at her. ]

... I think I should be the one to fear him.

[bornofwisdom]

He's pretty great.

( annnd this is where she leans on her palm, thinking about her boy.

... whom she hasn't seen all night, what is this garbage? oh well. )

[sosweet]

[ Sure love is... strange. But it must be nice. Saga takes her palm and has a look at it; with his other hand he throws said garbage away. ]

I think it is more than obvious that you were assigned to Athena's cabin.

[bornofwisdom]

I've been in mom's cabin ever since I got here and she claimed me.

( she smiles to him. it was a little embarrassing to ask, but: )

Do you... Think I'm like her?

[sosweet]

[ A gentle sound. ] As expected from her daughter.

[ And the question takes him off guard. Placing her hand down on the grass and parting from it, he gazes at her with a sweet expression and soft eyes. ]

I think you have always been.

[bornofwisdom]

A, always?

( she blushes gently at him. for not having knowing her for much longer than, well, a number of minutes, he so ridiculously sweet to her. )

Saga, you're so nice. Thank you. For as little as I get to see mom, it's nice to know that I'm at least a little bit like her.

[sosweet]

Always.

[ He feels there's a missing puzzle, that he should know how his Goddess looks like, but her Cosmo was noticeable; even when she was near death because of that arrow piercing her chest, when he was trapped inside his own struggle between good and evil... when he was hit by her shield's light...

Athena has always been there. And at the same time, she hasn't.

Except for one thing... ]

I cannot place it, but... it is your compassion and hers that makes you both very alike to each other.

[bornofwisdom]

Our compassion?

( she smiles. being compared to her mother should be something daunting, really. especially with her mother being a Goddess. but for Annabeth, being told she's like her mother is something that excites her. )

You're sweet.

[sosweet]

[ He nods at her. ]

Athena is known for being compassionate to her Saints, even with those who have lost the path of good and fall into the darkness.

[ And he lost it. Even when his motifs were well-intentioned... at least, a little.

He blinks. No one has called him like that before. ]

[bornofwisdom]

I guess mom is a pretty well rounded woman, she does appear to care a great deal about her peoples and children, so. Mm, I believe it about her Saints, too.

She seems pretty forgiving. ( well. sometimes. )

[sosweet]

I was told by my mentor that, in the same manner that she can punish, she can forgive.

It is how she makes justice prevail.

[bornofwisdom]

Mm, mom is... ( 'pretty cool.'

she just smiles, happy to have met someone whom seems to love her mother as much as she does. )

...well, she's something else.

[sosweet]

[ It is like a platonicmotherly love ;; ]

She is special and important to us.

[ He glances up at the stars. ]

I think we should go back to the cabin. It is late.

[bornofwisdom]

( was it really that late? she gives him a gentle nod. )

You're right, we should turn in before the harpies get loose. Gods know I don't want to have to deal with them.

[sosweet]

[ Oh yeah. Also, he will make sure no harpies even come near her. Saga stands and offers a hand to her with a smile. ]

Shall we go?

[bornofwisdom]

( with a faint blush, Annabeth takes his hand and hoists herself to her feet, then brushes off from sitting at the fire. )

Love to. ( she gives a nod and motions for him to follow as she heads back toward the cabin for the night. )
