(Citrinei didn’t forget my other characters....lol)
Nathan was finishing up his unpacking his stuff which wasn’t much only just really the necessitates such as clothing, personal things or even stuff he simply picked up he thought would be useful for someone in camp. I know a Hephaestus camper who would love this... he thought to himself as he took out a small metal box from his suitcase that he couldn’t open and figured little Lucy could fin a use for it or somehow change it from a metal box to a clock or something, putting stuff in their places with the last finishing touches up with pictures going far back from his first days here to more recent ones with his friends from camper or his half-sister. Geez... I really did have bad acne then and stout.... ahh the good old days~ he often surprised himself with these pictures which he remembered that one of the younger campers was composing a scrapbook. “Better get copies of these.”
"Hmm...my favorite memory? I have too many to count,but i guess, it would be the memory of meeting all you and making friends here on the forums. :3" ”One day I’m going to sit down and make a list of all the books that I finished reading....” “It's going to be a long list...”
"This is stupid!" Oliver spoke angrily, "If I fall cause you're chasing me I won't forgive you!" He honestly did this too often to fall like that, but he was trying to use the threat to drive them away. He'd have to deal with living with others again and he would like to get some more quiet time before then.
"Both are great for different reasons. But then one of us has to looooose~" Asher whined out, "And it would have to be you cause I can't lose." There wasn't a real argument there, it was childish. But Asher was just a childish person with that. He liked winning, but he also liked Alex. A silly predicament but he'd still find a way to complain about it.
Percy smiled at Sanaa's approach. "It was great! No trouble and great grades and all college ready." He had already been accepted into his favorite school from early in the school year. With his grades and accomplishments he could apply practically anywhere, but he chose the same school his father went to where he began his work for his magazine. They were glad to take him in. "What about for you?"
Since Lulu wasn’t an only child, the thought of meeting even more siblings excited her, and there was a bit of hop in her step. Turning to Joshua, she asked, “What do you mean?” She figured that just like herself, he might mean her siblings were rather outgoing.
Ben tolled his eyes just thinking of Cecilia, as he’d never seen a good moment of her. He felt bad since he didn’t know her too well, but not too bad.
The moment they were entering, Cecilia directed Lucia where to put her bags, studying her nails with a huff. She'd end up clipping one of her nails if she wasn't careful, and bag carrying wasn't her thing, anyway. "Yes, yes, I've finally arrived here as well," she told Nathan. "Your... friend wanted to know if you're in here, so I was nice enough to let her check."
Lucia seemed to ignore her words, setting Cecilia's bags down before she waved to Nathan. "I was wondering if you wanted to do something before dinner starts. I know it's not that long anymore, but I'm bored, to be honest."
"Suuure," Alex replied, rolling his eyes. "Pretty sure you'd be the one losing, but keep believing that you'll win." He could get pretty competitive himself, especially when it came to capture the flag and Asher. He gave him a small nudge while saying that, grinning. "I feel like you'd be too nervous to go after me, anyway, so I doubt we'd meet during that game."

"Got accepted into a college in New York, so I'm going to continue staying with mom and Alex for now," she explained, then smiled. "I'm going to pursue a career as a teacher afterwards if possible. It sounds like a lot of fun." She'd not been that sure for the longest time, but she'd taken a lot of time to think it over. Now, though, she was rather set on that path. Being a teacher was what she really wanted to try out.
"Ah, well, you'll see when we meet them," he promised with a sheepish smile. "Some people are raised a bit differently than others." He figured Cecilia simply didn't know any better, but still. Lulu would have quite something to deal with with her as her sister. Then again, had Cecilia even already arrived? He'd not seen anybody scream at him to carry any bags, at least.
Prue found a nice branch to sit on which was halfway up th tree where she could see both of her brothers which little Ollie had a point of falling out of the tree however she could catch him then if she fell from the tree too then surely their beloved older brother would catch them, “Then I’ll wait here for you to come down... Yes I know you like being alone way from everyone else.... but can you make time for at least us?”
Nathan looked over his shoulder to see one of his demigod half-sisters Cecilia entering the cabin with Lucia in tow and carrying some bags, “Hey Ceci~! How’s been your year?” He asked with a grin which he figured it was a good start that she brought less bags this time however it wasn’t that difficult to carry one which he then turned to the Zeus camper who he had invited to dinner- not in that way of course. “Well we could spar for a bit- that way we’d work up more of an appetite for dinner.” He suggested with a chuckle as the past couple of months he hadn’t been sparring that much with school getting in the way or really someone he could sor that could match or outmatch him in a duel.
"Hmm...my favorite memory? I have too many to count,but i guess, it would be the memory of meeting all you and making friends here on the forums. :3" ”One day I’m going to sit down and make a list of all the books that I finished reading....” “It's going to be a long list...”
Oliver groaned and flipped himself so he was hanging off the branch from his legs."And why should I do that?" He had his arms crossed as he was looking down at her. The branch barely moved as he hung, he was just that light. "I have to live with you two so why can't I get a little more alone time before then?" He argued, despite the fact he would totally find other ways to get away later.
Asher scoffed at that comment, "Alright Bishop, you're on. Now I hope we're on different teams cause I'm gonna kick your butt!" He stuck his tongue out at him. No matter what, this was sure going to be a fun match.
"That's great." Percy said with a smile, "I'm sure you got that in the bag." His eyes glanced over the camp, "It feels very surreal to think about leaving here, right? The camp's been through a whole lot." He commented, definitely having his fair share of near-death experiences.
While Joshua’s words made her a bit nervous, Lulu wasn’t phased. These were her siblings, they were sharing a cabin. They’d just have to get along. Shrugging, she told him, “I’m sure it’ll be fine, we’ll probably find some similarities, having a parent in common has to be able to spark some sort of conversation.” She reasoned. “I’m excited to meet them either way.”
Ben nodded, agreeing with her. “That’s true. My siblings are pretty fun,” He replied, thinking of all the times he’d seen Sanaa drag Asher out of bed in the morning.
"My year was splendid, of course" Cecilia answered, striding over to her bags to unpack them. She pulled a face at the suggestion Nathan gave Lucia, but didn't comment on it. It was clear the thought of sparring didn't sound fun to her, though.
Lucia, however, beamed at the suggestion. "That sounds great! I've really not been able to practice that much, as it's a bit boring to practice alone," she admitted, sending Nathan a smile. "Ready whenever you are!"
"Wow, sounds like a change of heart," Alex joked, then suddenly leaned closer to Asher. "You really wanna do that to me?" he asked innocently, smiling up at him. Then, he pulled back away suddenly. "Guess that means war, Quinn." Alex was joking, of course, but he would still enjoy winning against Asher.

"Yeah, although I will continue living close to the camp, and Alex will still be going here, so I'm figuring that I may still get some information about stuff that's going on here," Sanaa replied. "Still, it feels weird for this to be my last summer here. Have you already decided on a new counselor?"
Sanaa herself had somebody in mind, although, she still wasn't quite sure about it.
"Yeah, I'm sure you'll be fine," Joshua agreed with a small smile while they were walking. "Nathan's really nice, too. You'll get along great with him, I'm sure." He looked around once they were nearing the cabins, humming to himself. "It's so much more lively around here again, I'm glad," he admitted. It had gotten a little lonely with so few campers around.
Prue found this tree to have a nice view and the branch an excellent place to sit for awhile with a book however she wasn’t going to intrude on her younger brother’s ‘place’ which she was doing now but only because she hadn’t seen him in a while plus Nick wanted to see him too, “Because we're your siblings and we care about you, plus the fact I know you can lawyer hid out somewhere later untimely you want.” She replied which she looked up at Oliver who was hanging upside down from the branch now that looked like fun as the young teen got somewhat comfy on the branch with her leaning against the truck of the tree and her legs on either side of the branch for support. “Just an hour of spending time with us~? Then we’ll leave you alone.” She thought this might be an alternative to possibly paying him with some dramchae that or she would switch places with Nick.
“Packings finished so let’s get going.” Nathan said with a grin across his face which he wondered who would land on their rear first well at least he didn’t have to worry about her cursing his weapon to be to heavy and dragging him to the ground however her attacks might actually be more shocking then most pun certainly was intended, “Hey Cecilia want to join? Or at least come to watch me get knocked off my feet.” He added which the camper addressed his sister who never seemed that keen on fighting however he added the part of him getting creamed possibly by the other camper- adding that aspect always made the audience grow to watch their sibling get beat or be victorious.
"Hmm...my favorite memory? I have too many to count,but i guess, it would be the memory of meeting all you and making friends here on the forums. :3" ”One day I’m going to sit down and make a list of all the books that I finished reading....” “It's going to be a long list...”
Ben grinned widely at Joshua, “This summer is going to be the best one yet, I know it.” He decided, pushing his hair away from his face, as if was beginning to fall a bit. With a bit of a huff, he admitted, “I want to make this one of the best because it’s one of my last year’s at camp, and I’m not about to let it be mediocre.” Despite the sentence not starting out all that happy, it ended confidently.
Lulu looked between the two, asking, “Wait, how long have you guys been going to this camp? It seems you guys know it quite well.
Oliver let out a loud 'Uuuuuugh!' before making his way down the tree. "I'm coming down but I'm not gonna be nice." He warned them with an annoyed look on his face. Not that he ever did play nice while around them. But he was going to be more difficult on purpose because of this situation. He could be heard muttering his complaints as he shimmied down, crossing his arms as he came fact to face with Nick.
Asher laughed at Alex's antagonizing attitude. "Indeed it does~ May our paths cross on the battlefield." He joked, not being able to keep down his dorky smile. "And then after as well so I can kiss and hug you~" He winked, not being able to keep down the cute sayings right now. If this had been further in the summer he could've; but whenever he got to seeing Alex after a long time he couldn't stop fussing over him.
Percy fought back a big grin as she asked that, he wasn't telling anyone who it was yet. "I do, but it's still a secret." He answered happily. It was an easy decision for him seeing how everyone has grown. Percy was not worried at all about his choice.
Here's the skip~ Lily~Myth , skye , נιηχχє∂ . The game's going to start soon, so people are just gathering up to head into the forest))
A few days later, it was finally time for the capture the flag game.
It was going to start soon, so Sanaa made her way over to Percy, giving him a nod. "Let's try our best to win this," she said with a smile. "I'm counting on you for good plans. ...and for some help with Asher," she added, scoffing a little.
While they'd have to face both the Poseidon and Hades campers, she was glad to have Lucia on their side. And to actually have a game where her brother was on her side, too.
“Yes! YES YES!” Chevy chanted with the energetic teen skipping back and forth as she was happy to not only be back at camp but also being able to play capture the flag again that nd many other things didn’t she miss, “I can’t wait to make a homerun!” She took out a colorful pen from her pocket that turned into a giant mallet upon clicking one end which one side of the mallet had a grape design- courtesy of dear ol’ dad while the other had a ‘crazy-looking’ emoji on the other.
*
Henry took a step back from the Dionysus camper which a step closer he would’ve been the first to the infirmary before the game actually started, “That would be awesome-“ he began to say at first not realizing that ‘homerun’ meant whacking people until he started to think more of why she would use such a term, “Uhhh.... only homeruns for monsters, I don’t think the nymphs would appreciate campers getting flung into their trees.” He added quickly which earned a small huff from Chevy the pig-tailed wonder however the frown was quickly replaced by a grinning smile.
*
“Well I guess it’s back with Hermès.” Satoru spoke mainly to himself with his cabin not built yet which he didn’t mind as it took time to build up one plus the fact he didn’t have any known half-siblings that he knew of, just like his ‘claiming’ it would probably be the next two years or more if he was lucky that is and siding with some powerful cabins did sound like a good strategy granted they only had one of the big three cabins on their side.
*
“This will be an interesting game that’s for sure,” Nathan spoke with his hands in his pants’ pockets as he stood beside the counselors of the hades cabin which he still kept forgetting that she wasn’t in fact taller, “I overheard some of the Hermès campers betting which knowing them they’ll either win lots of dramcha or not.” He added with a chuckle since sometimes some campers would bet to see which team would win the match after all it was all fun however nothing over five drachma per person that was rule made by Chiron to avoid gambling... or so some rumors would say that he could briefly recall.
Prue laughed, “I’d imagine your betting on shipping people... oh I’m right? How surprising.” She caught a small glint in the aphodrite camper’s eye of ‘shh’ and she simply answered the best she could without laughing more, “I haven’t played this game in sometime.... it’s fun to relax and wait for a camper to knock you out.” she joked.
"Hmm...my favorite memory? I have too many to count,but i guess, it would be the memory of meeting all you and making friends here on the forums. :3" ”One day I’m going to sit down and make a list of all the books that I finished reading....” “It's going to be a long list...”
Noel rolled his eyes as he watched his half-sister skip around. He himself had a calmer pose, just waiting for their team to finish gathering up to head into the forest. "Be careful to not get knocked down because you're too excited," he warned quietly, crossing his arms in front of his chest.
--
Nick made his way over this his half-sister and Nathan, sending both of them a smile. "Prue," he addressed her. "Do you want to stay back to guard the flag, or do you want to go after it?" Nick had mainly gotten used to being positioned around the flag, so he didn't mind staying back, but if Prue wanted to try her hand at stealing the other team's flag, he wouldn't try to hold her back at all.
“Too excited? Me? Never~!” Chevy giggled with the girl skipping around her brother whichsome had described them as being polar opposites of one another yet she wasn’t sure why that would be, after all he had some ‘madness’ in him too he just hid it well. “So brother of mine, want to capture the flag or act as..... uhh.... sentries! Is that the word?” She thought for a moment which was the name for those that wouldn’t guard the flag but a border or something.
“I guess we can just hang out with the flag,” Prue replied with a small shrug which she didn’t mind staying back or even going after it with her just going with the flow of things really, “Unless anyone else wants too?” She added while looking at the others that had joined up for their team as she saw a young Hephaestus camper running over to them with her metal brace making small squeaking sounds.
“I hope I’m not late!” Lucy ran over to her teammates with her brace squeaking from being recently oiled however she had forgotten that today was Capture the Flag day so her brace might get her seen quicker, she had grease stains across her clothes and her face from working on the forge plus working on other mini projects such as taking her weapon apart then putting it back together for an upgrade. “So.... what’s the plan?”
"Hmm...my favorite memory? I have too many to count,but i guess, it would be the memory of meeting all you and making friends here on the forums. :3" ”One day I’m going to sit down and make a list of all the books that I finished reading....” “It's going to be a long list...”
