Oliver muttered something on the lines of, 'what's it to ya'' but with his head down and quiet voice who knew if Alex would know what he said.
Marinette saw Alex bump into the kid, as it preoccupied him she decided to walk up herself. "Woooow Alexander~ Causing trouble already, hmm?" She teased lightly, tilting her head to the side with a playful smile.
He had been about to ask the other boy what he had said, but something Marinette said made him pout and turn his head to look at her. "Don't call me Alexander," he whined, looking at her with what could only be described as a puppy dog look.
Though, he glanced back at the black haired boy and added, "I can show you around if you need help."
A slight breeze messed up his soft brunet hair even more as Nick made his way up the hill. He'd managed to barely get his early flight, as he had to get up very early for it. Still, he was trying to make the worry disappear from his mind as he walked towards the entrance.
This place brought bad memories, but he figured that three years had at least chased most off. With a small smile, he continued on.

Umiko kept walking, before a familiar face caught his eye. Basically, a younger female of himself started walking up the hill, and his breathing stopped for a moment, eyes widening as he saw his sister. He ducked farther into camp, trying not to be seen. "Manami?" He whispered, to himself, panicked. She'd grown up a lot while he was gone.
Manami walked up, a little confused as to where she was supposed to go, but saw a group of boys, hearing one say something about being short.
Ben stuck out his tongue. "I'm going to stay so much shorter than you, Joshua. Can't you, like, use must to make me appear taller?" He joked, grinning.
Elettra trudged up the hill, yawning. She'd moved back to Australia during the summer, so her accent was thick when she yawned and waved to everybody she saw, "Hey, guys!" She said cheerfully.
Username >> Flickerpaw Character's Name >> Maria Corsman (Goes almost exclusively by the nickname Ria) Age >> 15 Birthday >> April 22 Height >> 5’2 Physical Appearance >> Ria has mid-length dirty blonde hair that goes just above her shoulders, and she’s a touch shorter than the average girl of her age. She has good upper and lower body strength, along with hazel eyes and a beige skin tone. She prefers wearing bright colors whenever possible, whether it’s bright red, electric blue or neon pink. Basically, whatever would make her hard to miss in a crowd gains the Ria stamp of approval. If she’s wearing more subdued colors, it’s generally a warning sign that she’s in a foul mood. // Godly Parent >> Ares Other Family >> Lily Corsman (Mother), Cameron Gray (Step-brother), Audrey Gray (Step-sister), Andrew Gray (Stepfather) History >> Lily had her heart set on naming her first daughter Maria in honor of her grandmother. (Much to the future Maria’s dismay, as she doesn’t think the name suits her in the slightest.) After a brief romance with a strange man brought her a daughter, that’s exactly what the child was named. While Ria was still an infant, Lily settled down with Andrew Gray, and he brought his two young children with him. Maria grew up believing that he was her biological father, and Cameron and Audrey her biological siblings. All things considered, they had a pretty good relationship with each other.
Ria traded her chocolate chip cookies to Audrey in exchange for help with English homework, Cameron had an alibi ready for her when she punched the school bully in the nose and needed help to not to get suspended again. Ria, well, she might have gotten a bit too intense when some jerk in middle school didn’t listen when Audrey politely told him she wasn’t interested in guys and teased her for the rest of the day. (Ria regrets her temper quite often. This wasn’t one of those times.) Ria bounced between schools quite often, and her grades were consistently low. People at her schools often wondered if there was something bad going on regarding her home life, but they were far off the mark. Schoolwork just doesn't click to her.
She learned that she wasn’t biologically related to Audrey, Cameron and Andrew when she was ten. When she learned differently… it didn’t really change anything. She was surprised, she supposed, but at the end of the day it didn’t alter the fact that they were family. It just didn’t matter to her, it was a fun fact, not some life changing revelation.
It was easy for a satyr to pick her out as a demigod. Ria held a lot of red flags. The first year she started going to camp, things were awkward and stilted between her family for a while. Nobody quite knew what to make of the situation. Eventually, they had the conversations that they needed to have, the shock wore off, and now’s it’s a bizarre fact of life that Greek myths are real. None of them are completely sure how they feel about their beloved family member having the blood of the war god running through her veins, and none of them pretend to. Life is weird, confusing and messed up at times. But the camp that Ria goes to every summer is for her own safety, and she seems to enjoy herself there, so all things considered it’s probably not the worst storm they’ve had to weather.
Weapon >> Her preferred weapon is a short spear with a blade made of celestial bronze. The shaft is made of wood, but it’s reinforced with metal on the inside so it can’t be easy snapped. She also has a celestial bronze dagger as a backup weapon for emergencies. // Personality >> In hindsight, it’s extremely obvious who Ria’s godly parent is. Half the camp had her pegged as Ares’ daughter even before she was claimed. She has a short temper and a competitive streak regarding the camp games, and she’s both skilled at and enjoys fighting. Perhaps the biggest thing that sets her apart from a lot of her half-siblings is that if even her temper burns bright, it fizzles out fast, and she knows to apologize if she takes things too far. She hates it, but she’s able to acknowledge when she’s the one in the wrong. You might not guess it just by looking at her, but she forgives very easily, too. With all the people she gets mad at, she’d end up being pretty twisted and bitter if she couldn’t live and let live once in a while, she figures.
In everyday life, Ria is confident and outgoing. She’s extroverted and thrives in the limelight, and aims to be on the front line when trouble is approaching. She’s fairly friendly so long as whoever she’s talking to is being civil, and she tends to wear her heart on her sleeve. Her sense of humor is a balance between absurd jokes and bad puns. She shies away from sarcasm, as she thinks it sounds condescending most of the time.
When she’s panicked or excited, she tends to make a lot of hand gestures and either give up using nouns (Hurry, hurry, put the thing in the thing!), forget the actual name of something (That action scene was great, did you see him firing the shooty gun lazer-!) or some combination of the two. Her vocabulary is decent, she just doesn’t care enough to use it when her mouth is going faster than her head.
Strengths >> Ria inherited a passion for combat from her father, she’s both highly skilled at it and enjoys it a lot. There are a couple neat tricks she inherited from Ares, her favorite being the ability to curse an opponent’s weapon that could turn arrows into rubber or make a sword too heavy to lift properly. It wears off very briefly, but even a couple of seconds can make a huge difference in a fight. Weaknesses >> Ria struggles academically with many subjects. They just don’t click to her, and she can’t focus on schoolwork properly. Her short temper means that she’s often goaded into things that nine times out of ten she regrets later, and it tends to take her a while to pick up new skills. // Likes >> She enjoys bright colors, if her wardrobe didn’t say it clearly enough. She enjoys most games, from board games to video games to card games, despite getting insanely competitive over them. She’s very comfortable with crowds and enjoys being around people, and she thrives at the center of attention. Dislikes >> She can’t stand most of her school subjects, and there have been times where she needed Audrey and Cameron to help her che-... Er, study, just to pass her classes. Nothing at school clicks for her, and it makes her feel like a moron. She also hates losing, and wasps can make her lose her cool in a heartbeat. Dreams/Goals >> Ria never thought too hard about what her future’s going to hold. It would be nice if she could help people, she thinks, but she isn’t quite sure how to go about it. Fears >> Her most common fear is one of enclosed spaces. Especially if it looks like the walls are closing in, she hates scenes like that in movies. She also can’t stand wasps, and her go-to reaction to seeing one is to try to stab it with her spear. // Crush >> --- Dating >> --- Preferred Partner >> She’s attracted to both men and women and identifies as bisexual. She wouldn’t be opposed to dating somebody, but she isn’t really searching at the moment, either. // Other >> She needs glasses, but she hates wearing them and uses contact lenses instead whenever she can. (Also, I loved these books as a kid, wow. I'll probably make another character or two later down the line.)

Elettra waved back, smiling as she jumped on Ben's back, knocking the wind out of him and making her laugh. "It's nice to see you, too." She told him, ruffling his hair like he was a little kid and not sliding off his back. He grumbled something she couldn't understand, but a head of black hair in braids caught her eye and she twisted her neck, seeing a Japanese girl coming toward them.
Manami made eye contact with the others, smiling small. "Hi! I'm new here, name's Manami." She greeted them shortly before continuing. "I'm here because I'm a child of Hecate."
Umiko peeked out toward Manami, grimacing. Now he couldn't talk to any of those people, he looked too alike in comparison to his sister. Not that he would talk to them anyways, thinking that being alone was a good idea. He just had to lay low. Or, lower...
Ria looked back, satisfied, as she reached the top of the hill. School had pretty much been torture again this year, for a while she had been sure her math teacher was a monster. (He wasn't, but she had almost hoped he was, what sane person wouldn't prefer monster fighting to a polynomials lecture?) It felt good to be back. She was at home here, not some weird outcast or the troubled kid with the absent father who kept getting in fights and jumping between schools. She almost snickered to herself. Alright, it was time to leave the world behind for a while, and boy was it was a long time coming. She stopped on top of the hill for a moment, letting the breeze ruffle her dirty blonde hair.

Naomi took a deep breath staring at the camp sign, she missed being at the camp and had rushed to get to the camp the moment she could. Still she felt a sense of dread, she was the oracle without any oracle powers. She couldn't give prophecies Apollo hated her-- And now you get to see SANAA the thought inturrupted her, she smiled. Thats why she was excited this was the reason for not frowning. WIth that Naomi ran down to go find the counsler of the Apollo cabin.
Tristan sat underneath a tree with a book in his hands it was about the greeks, he didn't know why he packed it with him it sort of just was in there and he was sure he'd never read it before so why not take the time now. No one was going to bother him anyways. (Tristan got new parents later during the year I just decided that now, and they just know he goes to a camp during the summer and not much else)
Alethea stretched a bit getting ready for a daily jog she still wasn't as phisically strong as she had been before the scorpion had poisoned her. But she supposed near death kinda did that too you, Alethea was determined to get back to her top-notch preformence and that required running...A LOT. Citrine(Cuz Sanaa) Lily~Myth
Oliver made a move to try and escape the two, but Marinette's keen eyes caught him right away. "Don't get scared off cause mean ol' Alex is bullying you~ What's your name?" She asked, only annoying Oliver further. "Oliver." He looked up at the two of them, his green eyes staring intently as his voice was clearer and laced with his anger. "Now can I go? I'm not to fond of wasting brain cells talking to pests." "Ouch, someone's cranky." Marinette pouted immaturely as she crossed her arms.
Percy was finally there, looking obviously worn out and distressed. His lateness would put a damper on his busy schedule so he was doing some personal work on the ride there to free up other time.
Henry had arrived in camp two days before the normal as he had gone on a quick trip with his mother which was cut short and since she wanted to 'see him off' it had to be, he was already outside of his cabin and stretching his legs in order to not have them fail for her as he looked around for Alethea who he hoped would jog/race with him.
Nathan was currently on his way to camp by car which his half-sister insisted on driving him which made him a little embrassed but this was the time to spend time with Daisy, who had been back home in Scotland for school but she also happened to bring Javis along who was his pet swan that if he could understand 'bird language' then the 'elegant, graceful and handsome' white swan would better be known as rude, bossy and sailor-like. "Your keeping him with ya right?"
"Hold on tight!" Prue giggled a bit awhile feeling the wind pressing against her face and her long ebony-black hair was tied back in a dark red fuchsia-colored rib ion, She was ridding the mare she got last year from her father back to the camp as she suddenly felt two small arms hold tighter around her waist which made her smile more since she knew that her little adopted brother/cousin was at first nervous about the whole ridding a horse.
Masanori held onto the sixteen year-old girl as he was thankfully for her body to block all the incoming wind, they weren't shadow-traveling but Grimm was doing a full-on gallop that only slowed to trot once in awhile to not over-tire, "H-Hai!" He manged to say awhile managing to take a glimpse over the girl's side to see the hill where he couldn't see much because of his cousin/sister being much, much taller.
"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...”

Not all of your forms seem to be done yet, but those that are done are accepted))
Alex took a moment to reply, tilling his head to the side. "I'm not trying to be a bother. I just want to show you around because you could get lost or in trouble," he reasoned with Oliver. "The name's Alex, as Marinette has mentioned before."
After saying that, he gave a glance at said camper, hoping for some help.
Joshua's grinned seemed to grow broader when the girl mentioned she was a child of Hecate. He'd never had sibling before, so he seemed to perk right up. "Well, guess we're in the same cabin, then~" he said with a small laugh. "I'm Joshua, counselor of the Hecate cabin."
After Lucia had put her things away, she returned to the entrance, sword hanging by her side. It just felt right this way for her. She stopped, spotting Ria up on the hill and waved with a smile. As Ria was the Ares counselor, Lucia really liked sparring with her, so she happy that she was back.
Sanaa smiled at the scene going down in front of her, but turned around when she heard footsteps. "Naomi," she said with a grin. "Hey. How was your travel here?" She seemed as calm as ever, though there was obvious excitement in her eyes.
Nick stopped, turning around when he heard a car door. His grin brightened a bit when he noticed the certain red head making his way up the hill. Percy hadn't seemed to have spotted him yet, so he called out, "Hey, Percy."
His grin turned a bit more mischievous as he waited for Percy to notice him. He had missed the camp.
Frey laughed as she ran up the hill. "Brooke, hurry up!" she called loudly. Freya almost tripped as she took a sharp turn, but continued on afterwards without pause.
Manami grinned. "That's awesome! That means you're basically my brother, right?" She asked, reminding herself of her promise to be more social. "Now I have two." She looked toward the others.
Ben dipped his head, Elettra doing the same since she was on his back. "I'm Ben, and this is Elettra, the clingy one." He joked, smiling at Manami.
Brooke squealed, running after Freya and seeing everybody gather on the hill. "We should sneak up on them!" She suggested, clapping her hands.
Umiko was anxious, seeing his sister, although he tried not to acknowledge the fact that he wanted to sprint over to her faster than his best time in swimming. She seemed to be talking to lots of others, which satisfied him, because he knew she'd be fine.
Without further delay, Ria turned towards the camp, a smile crossing her face as she spotted somebody waving at her from the bottom of the hill. Hey, that was Lucia. They sparred pretty often last summer, but they didn’t end up chatting too much outside of that – maybe that would change this year. Regardless, it was nice to see a familiar face. She waved back towards the other girl and made a quick pace down the hill. A fairly bulky bag of her supplies for the summer was slung over one shoulder, the point of her spear sticking out awkwardly at the end where she hadn’t managed to completely zip her bag shut. Thank goodness her parents had driven her here, because otherwise the spear would have drawn a lot of questions from some poor cab driver.
She half-stumbled for a brief second before stopping her momentum at the foot of the hill. A small, casual smile was stuck stubbornly on her face. “Good to be back. I missed this place.” She said, adjusting the strap of her bag as she spoke. “Nice to see you again, Lucia. How have things been on your end?”
I hate writing on my cellphone oml my replies probably won't be as long until I'm home))
Joshua raised an eyebrow at that. "Another brother?" he asked. "Is your brother also a demigod?" He seemed curious as he asked that. Of course there was the possibility of another sibling for him, but he was doubting that.
Lucia grinned, putting a hand to her hip. "Everything is alright on my end!~ School sucks as always, but hey~" She wasn't the best in school, because through her disabilities as a demigod she often had trouble following the things they were learning as fast as she was supposed to.
