Michel frowned, looking to the kid. "...Maybe you're right. I just have to try again, then," he grumbled, then got back to hammering on the sheet of metal. But alas! He bent the sheet too much, and it was unusable for the kopis.

Cursing, he banged his hammer on the table. "God DA-!" At the last moment, he seemed to gain his composure, then huffed, folding his arms. "Just my luck," he grumbled, tugging his legs straight. "I try to make something after a Moment, and I can't do it. "

He turned to his half sister, then wordlessly handed her the Celestial Bronze she wanted. Then he rolled his wheelchair to the nearest wall of the Forge to sulk.

Demetri watched as Michel tried at his project once more, bending the sheet of metal and then instantly being infuriated by it. He went to reach a hand out towards the kid, pulling it back before it went too far and sliding it into his pockets. Demi watched silently as Michel grumbled to himself before handing the rod over to Lauryn for him to use. He wanted to go up to Michel and see how he could help, maybe offer to help him and place his own project to the side. But Demetri wasn't sure how well the kid would take it. Would he, being a child of Hephaestus, be insulted by the other? Would it somehow emasculate him to have another attempt to fix their mistake? Demi wasn't sure, so he stood there in silence, hands in his pockets, and staring at the boy before him as he bit his lower lip.

Before his eye bore holes into the back of Michels head, Demi reached for the rod and silently went to heat it up. His eye glanced back at Michel every now and then, until finally the metal heated up to a bright yellow. He reached for a nearby hammer and placed the rod onto the anvil and began to hammer away. Small sparks would fly as he clanged against the heated metal. Watching as the metal began to take shape, Demetri started to have an idea of how he wanted it to look. Something along the lines of the bow of the ship he had built on Circe's Island. Following the same curves and grooves it would've had to really emphasize its connection to the Odyssey.

"Daughter of Hypnos you say? Now that's interesting, I haven't met any children of Hypnos yet. And you said you have a half brother who's a child of Ares?" Cassian glanced over towards the Ares table where he'd just affected one of the kids. Not his intended target, but it sent a point all the same. Granted he hadn't stopped short of thinking about what pissing off the Ares cabin could do, and he certainly wasn't wishing to pick a fight, simply just to get even. After all, a prank for a prank was fair game.

"Unfortunately it seems I struck a chord with the Ares cabin. I unintentionally gave one of the younger cabin mates a case of madness, granted I wasn't trying to. But anything that can be done, can be undone. So if you could calm down Jace, I can fix your half brother and then I can go about my day undisturbed and sans wedgies." Cassian placed his pan flute by his lips once more, playing a single note as he glared at Jace and watched him closely.

Andy was in partial agreement with Arthur. She wanted to let Mads have alone time with her friends, but this was also her aunt and she wanted to help. But the comment from Nancy that she was going to be there with Mads when she fell froze her in place. "I have to help her. Maybe knowing what was going to happen we can prevent it."

Andy didn't know much about the Pit. She had heard a bit, but not enough to have any idea what Nancy meant by there had only been two people who had escaped from it. She looked at Arthur. Worry and fear in her eyes. It had taken her a moment to gather what else Nancy had said. It had been her with Mads and 'one of the gingers'. That meant it wasn't Arthur she'd be on the quest with. They were going to be separated already.

Niah understood perfectly what Nancy was saying and she stiffened. Mads had an idea though. Maybe just maybe they could get Letus to help. Finding him would be a quest unto itself. "Okay, so in order of operations. Figure out what the sword was. Andy and Mads, and whichever of the Greeks it was go after it. Mads..." She trailed off. "Then we find Letus and hopes he lets us through the door to rescue Mads from a place almost no one has ever survived before." She looked at Mads worry etched into her features.

It was there on the tip of her tongue the swear that she knew she couldn't keep. The oath that if she failed to keep would kill her. She would try for the rest of her life to keep it and she knew that. Mads knows how important oaths were to Niah. "We'll do it. I don't care what it takes but we'll get you back. I swear it." The words were said. She felt it wrap around her. Her mother had heard her and the Oath was bound.

Madalyne looked over at Niah giving her friend a slight smile as she leaned in and gave her a tight hug, knowing that Niah always took oaths seriously. "Thank you." She said and took a moment while looking over at Andy. "If you could also keep an eye on Andy for me?"

"Yeah, your family is my family." She said hugging Mads back tightly. Then glanced at the worried-looking little girl and gave her a smile.

Stella was feeling a bit overwhelmed by everything that was going on, but it was in the best way. They were saying they could go to the strawberry field after she dropped off all her stuff, and she was thrilled at that. Even more so when she walked into the Demeter Cabin. The carpet looked and smelled like grass, and the whole thing was supported by one big tree in the middle of the cabin. She let out a happy squeak as she dashed in and looked around. She wanted to kick off her shoes and just run around the cabin and let herself absorb all the plants that were there.

"Sorry! I um... just got really excited." She finally spoke when she realized that Eva, the head counselor of her new cabin spoke to her. She followed her to the empty bunk and then she gently tugged open the trunk at the end of the bed. She went to fish two things out of her bag, both of which had been gifts to her from her mother she had been told. She tucked the seed packet into her pocket as well as the dagger. She strapped that to her waist and then tugged her shirt back over it. She then tossed her bag into the trunk and then closed it with a small click.

"Alright thank you so much! Can we see the Strawberry fields now?" She grinned happily at that and then giggled a bit. She did also want a shower, but the field was almost calling to her. She knew it wasn't truly calling to her, but it almost felt like that some days.

Arthur processed the sequence of things he heard slowly. He wasn't with Andy in Nancy's vision- they'd already have to split up on a mission, unable to protect one another. He felt uncomfortable not being with her, not being able to protect her at all. He pulled Andy into a side hug, feeling hollow inside. He knew she could defend herself, probably better than he could, but it was just the idea of him not being there at all, leaving things to the fates. He didn't know anything about Doors of Death or The Pit, just that it was somehow his dads domain, or at least adjacent to it.

He watched Niah swear and oath, and he gritted his teeth. He had no idea how binding that was, or what the consequences would be for not following it, but if he had to guess, he'd say the answers to those two questions would be "very" and "death". It was a stupid, rash move, but one that he at least respected the gesture of it. He nodded at Mads, saying, "We'll do whatever we can to keep you safe, I don't... know a lot about this stuff, but if I can help it, you'll be coming back to camp. I promise." He said quietly, but loud enough for them to have heard him.

Camp Forges:

"Keep at it Demi, once it's at the desired shape you want it to be then quench it in the water bucket over there." Lauryn told Demi as she made her way over towards her half brother and sat down next to him. She gently rested a hand on his shoulder seeing him a little bit upset at his project. She had a lot of failed metal working projects in the past as well and had to start again from scratch and find out what happened and learn from it. "Hey, it's alright theres no need to get upset we all mess up sometimes." Lauryn said trying to reassure him. "Just keep at it and learn from the mistakes." Lauryn said to Michel as Lauryn watched Demi continue with his work, the first hit didnt really do much, but the next few were good seeing the shape slowly starting to appear now.

Dining Pavilion:

"The weirdo decided to be funny and try and mess with my half brother." Jace said simply to Janelle as he turned to face Cassian and gave him a really pissed off look. "Just cure him and if you do anything funny you'll regret it." Jace said angrily towards Cassian, Cassian would get the feeling if he would backdown if Cassian did release the madness. But if Cassian did do anything funny he'd easily become violent towards him. Cassian would be able to cure the kid of Ares, and Jace gave Cassian one last glare turning to look at Janelle. "Be careful with the children of Mr. D." Jace warned her as he headed back towards the Ares table the kid seemed o be really confused.

Kristin stepped off and made her way over towards Jason and gently patted him on the shoulder, letting Stella get settled into her new home. A few seconds later Eva came out as she looked at Stella and smiled towards her younger half-sister, knowing that the Strawberry Fields were really nice. "You'll really like it there." Eva said looking at the others and smiled. "I'll be at the training area if anyone needs me." Eva said as she started to head off towards the training and sparring area.

"Thats totally fine with me." Kristin said giving Stella a smile as she turned and headed off towards the Strawberry fields, there were a few kids of Demeter there already along with a few of Dionysus's as well as a child of Aphrodite as well to. There were a few satyrs and and Dryads as well tending to the strawberries. "Feel free to take one or two, the fields are really nice and the whole place smells really nice to." Kristin said to the others as she looked at Stella. "A lot of Demeter kids tend to work the fields here so you'll see your half brothers and sisters here a lot." Kristin told her

Madalyne smiled whipping away a few tears, she was really happy to have Nancy, and Niah there as well as Andy and Arthur they had a somewhat working plan then. They needed to find the god of death after all as well, she was genuinely scared of falling into the Pit, looking at them all sighing slightly. "Thank you everyone, really it does mean a lot." Madalyne said at least Leandra wasn't around she probably would have ended up wolfing out on Leandra and actually killed her if she annoyed her to much about this whole thing. She'd probably be more worried about trying to fill her Praetor position than her own wellbeing.

Madalyne then started to think of the leadership for the Legion she could possibly not return from this after all even if they all promised that they would be able to bring her back somehow. "Do you guys think I should step down from being Praetor?" Madalyne asked Niah and Nancy, and waved over for Andy wanting to come over as well to, and Arthur if he wanted to as well.

Leda was a bit impressed with Kiera's memory - she didn't know if she would have been able to recite Rosie's words so exactly. Prophecies tended to be short and sweet, but even then they could be a bit much for her attention span. She almost would have preferred for them to be delivered via fortune cookie, make them something easier to remember. Or could they just be giving as a string of emojis? That could've been rad. She wouldn't have been surprised if Apollo had already thought about implementing something like that with one of his Oracles. She gave her girlfriend's hand a squeeze, before nodding at Chiron and going from the Big House to the infirmary.

They didn't have any trouble persuading Rosie to go talk to Chiron - the young Oracle was already off and on her way. That then left the two of them, alone together more or less. "Well, we could sneak off to the armory and get you the best gear for the quest before everyone else goes through," Leda suggested. She already had some gear that she liked to use, but she imagined that Kiera could probably use a few upgrades to her armor or weapons. "Or if you're feeling more like taking your mind off of things, the weather around here suddenly seems just right for skinny dipping in the lake."

Nancy wished they could have put the gem through a garbage disposal - that would've been one of the best ways to keep it safe and out of all of this, an easy way to invalidate the prophecy she had seen. She didn't want her best friend to fall into the Pit - and she was skeptical of their ability to find the Doors of Death or even get Letus to cooperate with them. However, for Mads, she would do anything. She'd achieve the impossible. She'd scream at the Doors of Death until she lost her voice if that was what it took to open them, until her throat began to bleed from the energy and effort, until she died trying to bring Mads back. "You know I'm ride or die," Nancy chimed in, looking at Mads.

She bit her lip slightly, as Mads asked if she should step down from being a praetor. It was an action Nancy was going to take once this was all over, once the Legion and everyone she cared about was safe, so that way she could join Diana's hunt. "It's up to you," Nancy ultimately said. "I can keep the Legion safe while you're on the quest. I don't need a co-praetor, but if you want to resign, we can hold an election for the next praetor," she then added.

Michel bared his teeth, slapping her hand off. " Don't f**king touch me," he snapped, wheeling himself away. " I don't need your f**king pity or sympathy. I'm going to my cabin."

He looked towards the boy. " I'll come back later and check my forge. If I see your fingerprints on it, I'll f**king ruin your life, " he warned, before wheeling himself out of the door. He quickly wheeled himself into his cabin, ignoring everyone else, and came to his bed.

Muttering angrily, he lifted himself out of his wheelchair and onto his bed, and folded it up, resting it against his bunk. He'd deal with his failures later. For now, he needed to sulk.

Once Ezekiel reached Bryan, he was able to assess his injuries which turned out to be minor and healed them all successfully. Zeke offered Bryan a hand to help him stand up and grinned at his half-brother. ”Not many would survive let alone suffer minor injuries from a fall like that Bry. You are certainly built tough,” he noted.
Ezekiel looked around, trying to discover what other sorts of trouble they could get into. He looked back at Bryan, grinning like a cat. ”Should we spar a little?” He didn’t have much else lined up on the agenda for today. He was going to check in with the infirmary later but he didn’t need to pull a shift if he didn’t have to.

She listened as Jace (and Cassian too) both explained more or less what had happened with regards to the commotion that had been caused at the Ares table. "Ahh, dat doesn't sooehnd like it was very nice at all..." she said rather softly, just listening to the words that were being exchanged between Cassian and Jace. It was beyond weird, not really being able to see the sort of commotion that was being caused by them. Things were beyond strange, since she couldn't witness and see what was going on, so she just waited to hear what was going to happen next.

Janelle was somewhat glad to hear that everything was calming down, and she listened to Jace's warning with regards to what was going on and to be wary of any Dionysus kids. "I dink I can take care o' myself dank you..." she responded to him as he left the two of them, and she glanced her head to face the direction of Cassian's words, "It might be best to naht mess wit dem too moehch. As fahr me brahther, 'is name is Jasahn, we 'ave de same mahther but defferent gahdly fathers. We were raised tahgether befahre we ended oehp combing 'ere." She explained simply.

"I dahn't actually dink I've really been arooehnd de strawberry fields all dat moehch... I dink I might 'ave been sahmewhat avoidin dem ahr sahmethin... Fahr no particular reasahn ahr anythin, joehst never 'eaded over dere..." he said to them as that appeared to be discussed as their next destination. Of course, he didn't typically hang around or visit the Strawberry Fields, but that was kind of because he was either hanging around his sister or wandering around the rest of the camp, sparring or something like that, that sort of thing interested him more than the fields.

"Not all too surprised, that's just my thoughts. Mainly our siblings from the Demeter cabin hang around there. Not all too surprising when you think about it. They are open for everyone to go to and visit whenever they really want. Essentially as Kristin said. We just tend to work in the fields, to me personally it is really relaxing to work with the plant life... But that's just me, though from what I know it's something similar for most of our siblings," Mary commented as they more or less headed away from the cabins. She waved slightly at Eva, before following after Kristin.

Jason looked at Stella as they walked along, "So are you ahverwhelmed yet? Ahr joehst 'appily takin it all in wethout a care in de wahrld?" he decided to ask her as they headed along. He figured that some people would likely get overwhelmed or freak out from everything that was seemingly going on. That was just how things seemed to go. For him, he had kind of been more towards thee overwhelmed side, while his sister seemingly took everything in stride and seem perfectly fine with everything that was happening around them at the time.

She saw a few of her half siblings in the fields, and waved slightly at them, before looking at Stella as she seemed fairly excited with regards to visiting this place. "It really is great here, my personal favorite place in camp as I mentioned, since I find it calming, it is truly a fairly beautiful place to be..." she said with a smile at Stella. It was going to be interesting to see completely what her reactions were going to be like with regards to being in this area that she clearly wanted to see so much.

Demetri stayed, his back turned to Michel and Lauryn now as he began to work at the metal. His tongue sticking out ever so slightly as he concentrated on his work. He was rather hesitant with the first hit, barely making a dent, but once he felt the rhythm it started to take shape. But as the clanging sounds of metal began to fade into the background, Demi started listening into the conversation Lauryn and Michel were having. It wasn't loud per se, but he could tell by the tone that she was trying to encourage him. Keep him from being dissuaded from his work.

His ear perked up slightly as he listened in, attention now being pulled as Michel began to yell out in either anger or frustration or both. Demi's eye shifted to try and see what happened and then he missed his mark, bending the metal out of shape from his intended design. Demetri gripped the hammer a bit too tight, now frustrated that all his work got ruined by a single stroke. He tried to correct the mistake but only made it worse. Frustrated air rushed out of his nose as he tried to exhale and calm himself down. He needed to push past what was happening around him and focus on why he was doing this work. And so Demi began to hammer at it again, smaller gentle hits to help correct where it had gone wrong and move it back to where it was meant to go.

Cassian studied Jace's face, looking for signs of intent and seeing that he was willing to let this slide if only he cured his half brother. There was a pause, silence clinging to Cassian as he held his breath before finally relaxing his shoulders and finishing the song. He hadn't been lying when he said he could cure what he'd done. It was a simple matter to him, and he felt as the song carried out his powers and settled them into the ears of the younger Ares kid. Jace hadn't fully understood what had happened, Cassian had decided, and after all why would he? Ares' kids were all simpletons.

When Jace finally left, Cassian sat back down onto the seat and tapped the empty space next to him loud enough for Janelle to hear. "Care to have a seat? And hey, we aren't all bad. I just… I don't appreciate being bullied like that. I can't exactly out power an Ares kid but…" Cassian played a few notes on his pan flute. Random notes that somehow carried a weight to them. "I can do things my own way. But that just makes me someone to be weary of." His tone was soft, sad, as if he couldn't figure out how to fit in with the other demi-gods. Then again his father hardly ever fit in with the Olympians so perhaps that's how it went. "Must've had one tough parent to raise not one but two demi-kids."

Andy leaned into the hug from Arthur. It felt so nice. It was warm and comforting and it was perfect. She didn't ever want to leave his side. But she knew she'd have to. Knew that the two of them would have to walk paths that sometimes diverged. "No matter what, we always come back to each other, right?" She asked looking up at him. Taking in his brown eyes and hair.

Andy took the wave as what it was, an invitation. She kept her arm wrapped around Arthur and the two of them walked together to the side of Andy's aunt and her friends. "That's what friends and family is about. Being there for each other." As she said that she realized something that had been tetering in her mind. Her father wasn't there for her. He barely knew she existed. But Mads had been. She had been teaching her magic. And Arthur was always there for her, sure he was scared, but that was a reasonable response.

Niah winced as she realized her Oath might bind all of them. She had used 'we' but she hadn't meant for it to include the kids. Or even Nancy. They each had to make their own oath if they wanted to. Hopefully, her mother realized that and didn't hold the others to it. Though Arthur was agreeing to help. So was Nancy and she wasn't surprised about that. Niah had always felt a bit like a third wheel. The two of them had a friendship that went back before camp and she had only become friends with them because of the quest to get the Gem.

"As long as Leandra doesn't win." Niah's face was contorted into disgust. "But, yeah. No matter what. I'm here for you Mads. I wouldn't be alive if it weren't for you." She smiled. "The legion will figure it out. They've made it this long."

Niah then turned to Andy and said, "Yeah, that's what being friends and family is all about." She gave the kid a smile. Niah was a little surprised at the kid. She seemed to have grown up so much over the last year and Niah hadn't been watching it happen.

"Okay, I'll see you later Eve, thank you so much!" Stella smiled as she gently waved to her older half-sister as she watched her head out. She then smiled a bit as Kristin and the others went to head to the strawberry fields. She did make sure that her things were tucked away aside from the few things she had tucked into her pockets. She happily followed the older kids out to the fields, and when she saw them she brightened up considerably. The sight and smell of fresh strawberries during the dead of winter made her perk up and she almost ran ahead at that point.

She saw all the people there, the satyrs and other campers and was informed that many of those kids out there working were most likely her siblings as well. She couldn't believe it! She had gone from knowing that she had one half-sibling to quite a few. She was nearly vibrating by that point as she wanted to take off into the fields and dig her hands right into the dirt at that point. Forget the shower! She wanted to get right in there, back with the plants.

"Oh! I'm overwhelmed! But in the best way! How can I work in the fields like all the time? I mean I'll do other things too, but I just... those strawberries look beautiful! Ohhhh please tell me I can start working in them soon?" She looked up at the older campers, looking about ready to burst out of her own skin.

Arthur took in Andy's face for awhile as they looked at each other, knowing that soon he'd be without her. He wanted to be able to remember what she looked like, because, it was a morbid thought, but he didn't know if she'd be making it back. He had no idea what he would do if that happened, but he would do everything in his power to make sure he wouldn't ever forget her. "Always." He nodded, as they walked towards the group. He cherished each moment they had together right now, taking in everything he could, and being as present in the moment as he possibly could.

Arthur smiled at Andy's sentiment. Even if they weren't physically always there for each other, they would be emotionally. As he looked Mads up and down, he had to wonder if he could have a role to play in saving her. He was the son of the God of the Underworld, surely he could force the doors open? As he thought this, terror ran down his face for a brief moment, as he recalled what happened when he tried to raise his half sister, and he shook his head, clearing out the thought. Maybe he could, but he was going to hope that that wasn't necessary. It would sting him too much to try to reach for a demigod's soul again.

Camp Forges:

Lauryn stared at Michel as he slapped her hand away from him, and had a bit of a screaming match at her and threatened her and Demetri as he wheeled himself off. She closed her eyes and sighed slightly, she could understand the frustration but taking it out on someone who was simply trying to help them wasn't a really good thing. If he didnt want her help, then she wasn't going to help him, as Lauryn stood up letting out a slight sigh as she approached Demi seeing that he had messed up a little bit but watched him make the corrections. "Sorry about that." Lauryn said as she leaned back slightly. "Once you are done with that part we can work on the sides and back piece and then weld them all together. Then we can make the tuning pegs afterwards for the guitar strings." Lauryn said

Dining Pavilion:

The people over at the Ares cabin were still all giving him the death glare, especially from Jace as well as the unlucky kid who he had given the madness to. The other campers and the Ares kids were all starting to file out now as they all were about to finish eating for now. At least until dinner time came around things were now getting a bit quiet as well now to as the Dining Pavilion emptied out. Just leaving Cassian and Janelle alone together in the pavilion. A few seconds later the Harpies were swooping in and picking up the dirty plates and silverware to clean up.

Climbing Tower -> The Arena:

Bryan groaned slightly letting his half-brother heal himself up and accepted the hand that Zeke had offered, cracking his neck slightly and stretched. He looked at Zeke and grinned somewhat towards him and nodded, he could use a good sparing match right now, and maybe take some of that frustration from his loss on Zeke a bit. "Sure why not?" Bryan said giving Zeke a hard pat on the shoulder and started to make his way towards the training arena area. Bryan noticed that there were a few other campers as well as a few Romans there using the area turning to look at Zeke. "Well ladies first." Bryan said teasingly as he walked down and grabbed one of the nearby training weapons.

Hephaestus Cabin:

The Hephaestus cabin was pretty much empty except for a few of them who were sitting at a nearby table playing a round of Mythomagic, some cards and figurines were all splayed out on the table. They were talking about some video games as well to, one of them a girl around his age with red hair turned her attention towards Michel seeing him wheel himself into the cabin and plopped himself onto his bunk. "Whats up?" She asked him.

"You can start after the tour if you'd like totally up to you though." Kristin said to Stella and smiled at her seeing how excited the girl was actually was refreshing. She usually always saw most new campers were either scared or were really silent sometimes, as Kristin thought for a moment on where to go next. "Lets head over to the arena Take a handful of Strawberries if you'd like to as well." Kristin said as she waved goodbye to the nearby Satyrs and other campers who were there. She started to head out and made her way towards the arena, which wasn't super far.

Kristin could see all of the campers and Roman's who were training there and sparring as well to as she turned to look at Stella. "This is the arena you can do all of your training here, and this is where all of the camp meetings take place as well to." Kristin said, and also where funerals for those who ended up dying on quests as well to. But she wasn't going to say anything about that as she noticed both Bryan and Zeke there as well Bryan turning around and waved at the group.

"Skinny dipping does sound like a lot of fun, we could do that tonight though, it would be a lot more private that way anyway." Kiera said giving Leda a playful wink as she thought about it for a moment, the arena seemed like a good thing. "Some new gear would be really nice though lets go there." Kiera said gently taking her girlfriend's hand and started to make her way over towards the armory.

Kiera opened the door and started to look around seeing all of the weapons that were stored inside, from bows and arrows, to axes and spears, swords, as well as shields and a few sets of celestial bronze armor to. There was a lot in there, though she had her own weapons she was mainly interested in some new armor however.

Madalyne thought for a moment looking at them all as she thought about her position in the Legion, she didnt want to abandon her position not when they needed her the most. And she had a feeling that if she did Leandra would want to pull a power grab for the position, and leaving Leandra as Nancy's co-praetor made her cringe slightly. "I'll think about it some, though I have a feeling that Leandra will do a power move if I stepped down now, and I don't want you two to have to deal with her." Madalyne said, she was really touched knowing that she had friends who cared for her like family.

She looked at Arthur and Andy for a moment, she hadn't really told her niece about her werewolf curse yet but she did want to tell her since Andy was her only family who she hadn't told yet. And Arthur she had a feeling she could trust him with it as well before speaking again. "Mind if I have a moment alone with Andy and Arthur? I can meet you two at our tent afterwards and we can talk more about the Legion then."

Michel didnt answer at first, turned around and sulky as he was. Then he grumbled and sat up.

Looking over to the girl, he scowled. " F**ked up one of my projects," he grumbled. "A kopis, like one of the ones uncovered from those Egyptian Ruins. Just my f**king luck. "

Having said his part, he lay back down, still scowling. He was really not in the mood to talk to anyone. And if she didn't stop talking to him, this red haired girl would get a face full of angry paraplegic asshole.

He decided he'd apologise to Lauryn later, but he needed to sulk for a bit.

"You don't want to make a spectacle of it, luv?" Leda teased. She was only partially kidding. If she was skinny dipping with her girlfriend, she wouldn't care how private or not that it was - the naiads would gossip no matter the time of day or night anyways. Leda was just one of those people who were super secure with their bodies, she was comfortable with the idea, but knew that Kiera might have preferred some more privacy - although, she had to wonder if even the fish would gossip if they saw Poseidon's daughter skinny dipping with Iris' kid.

Of course, the thoughts of naked swimming had to end as Kiera took her hand and they went to the armory. Despite Iris' more pacifistic nature, Leda loved violence - as in, slaying monsters and undertaking quests. She found them exhilarating, like a nonstop roller coaster of action and adventure. The armory was just the prelude to that sort of epic fun. Leda wasn't really interested in getting any new weapons, as she adored her sword Ultraviolet, but armor was always a good thing to come by - and maybe a back up knife or too. "Anything in particular you're looking for?" Leda asked.

A look of horror dawned on Nancy's face, as Niah pointed out the unthinkable - that Leandra of all people could become praetor after Mads. If Nancy had to work with Leandra... She didn't know if she could stomach that situation, even for the sake of everyone in New Rome. It would be like being forced to work with the devil. She'd rather return to the Lotus Hotel for one hour than spend a minute being co-praetors with the pink she-demon. "Ugh, gag me with a spoon. No way could Leandra win. It'd be you, Niah, easy." She wouldn't let herself consider the possibility that she'd be wrong.

Nancy raised an eyebrow as Mads asked for some time alone with the kids. "I had gone out into the woods here to be alone, but I suppose I can cede the territory," Nancy joked. She wasn't really feeling better - maybe just a little more determined if anything else. She didn't know if they could save Mads... She didn't know if Apollo and her godly half-brother would pull through, if they'd be able to cure Mads before it was too late. There were too many questions unanswered.

But Nancy respected her friend's wishes, waiting for Niah for a second before heading back in the direction of camp. "You holding up okay?" Nancy asked.

Ezekiel smirked when Bryan agreed and turned to walk towards the arena when Bryan hit him on the shoulder in a brotherly way but it held some weight behind it. Zeke stumbled forward a bit before looking at Bryan.
”Now Bry, you wouldn’t be sore about me beating you now would you?” He was sure Bryan wouldn’t take it easy on him but Zeke didn’t mind the push. That was one thing you could count on with training with demi-gods, they never took it easy on you.
Ezekiel ignored the comment from Bryan, since he was one to claim a weapon first, Zeke assumed that comment negated itself. Zeke picked out a sword, similar to his murakumo. He swung it around a few times, walking towards an open area before he turned to face Bryan.
”The usual rules? How many rounds should we go?”

"Bullies aren't sahmethin I care much fahr either. Same wit me brahther, and you should take what de ares keds are like wit a grain o' salt, naht everyahne frahm dere is de same... Me brahther typically isn't much like de rest o' dem, typically 'e stands up to bullies o' any sahrt, especially if 'e dinks dey are bein mean to me. 'e's gaht a bet o' a temper like dem, but I 'aven't truly seen too much o' de similarities between 'im and dem." That definitely was the truth. Thing was from what she could tell she wasn't too sure if what the other Ares kids had been doing would be considered bullying or a prank.

Everything else that was being mentioned though, he listened to as the pavilion was starting to clear out a bit. "People underestimate ahthers a laht o' de time. Dat 'as been de stahry o' me life all dings cahnsiderin. Sahmetimes it also tends to be dem naht understandin de ahther persahn, and because o' dat dey aren't fully aware o' what dey are capable o'." that was her thoughts on the matter. She did notice that the dining pavilion sounded like it was beginning to clear out. "Sounds like de place is clearin out, perhaps we should leave too..."

Mary smiled slightly when she saw how excited Stella seemed to get with regards to seeing the Strawberry Fields. Personally she loved spending her time there, so now she was just wondering what all was going through Stella's head. Then she started asking a million questions with regards to helping to tend to the Strawberry Fields straight away, and that got her to giggle a little bit. "After the tour I'll bring you back out here and we can see about working together or something, how about that?"

The fields were beautiful, Jason had to admit to that one, though he wasn't too sure about sticking around in the field at all times or something like some of the other campers. Just his personal preference after all. He glanced over at Kristin when she mentioned potentially walking away from the fields and going towards the arena. That was a place he definitely preferred to be in. "De arena, dat's de place I prefer to 'ang around, but dat's because fightin and everythin is kend o' easy fahr me..." he said with a bit of a shrug.

"Yeah, well that's not all too surprising to me, you are a child of Ares. You all tend to have the same sort of mindset when it comes to fighting," Mary teased him slightly with a bit of a laugh as they started heading that direction. To her it was amusing somewhat, but she said nothing else with regards to it as she glanced over once they reached the area and saw Zeke and Bryan there. She wasn't too thrilled about seeing Zeke there, but she waved slightly at Bryan there.

"Wow, lettle bet rude dere dahn't you dink? Could 'ave been a bet nicer dere, but eh whatever, I can kend o' see what you mean wit it. And I except dat, so nice dough really," he responded with a bit of a chuckle as he glanced over at Stella. He wasn't too sure about her being much of a fighter aside from basic stuff, but who knew. Maybe she'd be surprisingly good at it, you never really wanted to judge a book by its cover, she could be fairly strong or something, who really knew what was going to happen. Sounded like she did alright using her powers though in a fight. So they'd have to see how she does.

Demetri gave Lauryn a half smile, shrugging his shoulders as she apologized for Michels behavior. It wasn't her place to need to apologize, and the small gesture of feeling the need to do so sat ill with him. It reminded him of something a girl at school used to go on about, something about women being trained to apologize to men and how the new wave needed to break the cycle. Demi didn't really understand it all, but it wasn't his place to disagree either. He turned back towards his work, hammering away his frustration to help better shape the neck into the shape of Odysseus's ship. "It's fine. You have nothing to be sorry for." His smile widened and softened, becoming a bit more genuine.

He placed the neck into the fire once more, pulling it out and shaping it, adding grooves, indents, and texture to make it appear more like wood and having it take the shape he wanted finally. Pleased, he dunked it into the pot next to him to quench it and steam rose out. Demetri pulled it out and placed it on a nearby table, moving over to the next item on the list. He heated more metal sheets, pressing them and forming them along the templates laid out before him thanks to Lauryn, creating the sides and back pieces. He continued the same marks he'd done on the neck on the outside of the back and sides, keeping the boat theme going. When he was finally done, he wiped some sweat off his brow and gave a whistle. "Man you guys make this stuff look easy. But who knows maybe I've got a bit of Hephaestus in me." Demi said with a chuckle as he continued on. "So, welding. Walk me through it?"

Cassian thought on what Janelle was saying, playing a scale on his pan flute as he thought. The last note hung for a moment, before he finally released it and tapped his fingers on the Celestial bronze. "If he's anything like you then he must be an alright guy. Especially if he doesn't condone bullying." He noticed the absence of her next to him, having decided not to take the seat he offered her. It bothered him for some reason but he wasn't sure why. Cassian had decided to let it go, extending his legs a bit further out so that they were straight, having all the weight on his heels.

"You're not wrong there. No one should underestimate another person. Especially if that person is your opponent. It's one thing to be confident, another to be careless." Cassian stood up, looping the leather chord onto his hip again and giving a small stretch. He watched as the Harpies started clearing things out and gave a nod towards Janelle before recalling she couldn't see him. "Right. Soo...were you thinking we should leave together or?..." He didn't want to assume anything, especially if she had meant for them to part their separate ways.
