Juniper considered getting food, but after staring at the table and blinking for several seconds, decided that was too much work. "Oy, Myra," she mumbled to her sibling. "I want a waffle, could you help me out?" Immediately after asking, she put her head down on the table and stared off into space.
Jade pulled on a blueish purple strand of hair and groaned as loudly as possible. “Why is it sunny. I hate the sun.”
Juniper slowly lifted her head up. "Could you, like, not?" She called to the Athena girl, she couldn't remember her name. "It's too early for you to be a bitch."
“Morning C,” Rayvn cooed to his younger sibling, a slight smile appeared on his lips when he saw the bear she was holding. She was still but a child, still so much innocence. “I saw you’d cleaned up the cabin, looked great. Though I don’t appreciate you touching my stuff.” He glanced around him at the other campers, and overheard one of Athena’s children openly saying she didn’t like the sun. Not the best thing to announce when half the pavilion was packed with Apollo’s children.
“It’s never to early to be a bitch. Mornings are he best time to be bitch.” Jade got up grabbed the nearest coffee and sat down.
"They are legitimately not," Juniper groaned, putting her head back on the table. "Unless you just genuinely love pissing people off, which seems likely enough, since none of you kids have emotional awareness," her voice got softer as she fell asleep on the table.
Cielle smiled at the arrival of her brother. He was only two years older than her but he treated her like the little kid she acted like. Holding the soft plushie closer for comfort, Cielle waved at him. "Morning Rayvn."
"It's going to be an interesting morning C…" Rayvn shook his head, ruffling the girl's hair slightly as he rose from the table. "What do you want, coffee? Omlette?" he had a strange feeling that they were both going to need all their energy today, so a decent breakfast wouldn't go amiss.
"I'll take a long nap for breakfast." She grumbled, putting her head on the bear. "I'm not really hungry so I'll take orange juice and probably a granola bar.
“I hate naps. They waste my time. I could be doing many other things like training and practicing the best way to apply concealer over battle scars. And polish my knifes. Or read.” Jade sipped her coffee and kicked a rock.
"Oh my gods, literally could you like shut up and leave people alone? Seriously, no one needed to hear your opinion on fucking naps," Juniper ranted loudly.
“No one needs to hear your fucking opinion on me but we heard it anyway. I’m done with this.” Jade tossed her coffee in a garbage can and began walk away.
"That wasn't an opinion, I was stating facts. I would think you would be able to tell the difference, o superior one," Juniper snapped annoyedly. Gods, she had always thought the Athena kids were a miserable bunch, but this one was getting on her nerves even more than usual. She was finding it difficult to calm down when she could FEEL the impertinence radiating off of everyone. "This is stupid," she muttered, and stood to go back to her cabin.
Now, Rayvn was a calm, gentle soul. He refused to hurt anyone, or even raise his voice. During training he would get scared and drop the weapon he was holding——nothing at all like his father. However, even he was finding it difficult to remain calm and collected when the people around him were at each other’s throats. He took C her orange juice and breakfast bar, before stuffing his hands into his pockets and walking after the two girls. His pace was a lot quicker than theirs, so catching up to them wasn’t too hard, and once he was in arm’s reach he grabbed both of their wrists. His grip was firm, almost painful to the others, but he wasn’t going to let them go before he’d finished what he wanted to say. “I think it would be in the best interest of you both, if you were to put whatever differences you have aside and refrain from attacking each other. The day has only just begun, it is far too early to be cursing at the top of your lungs. Don’t forget that there are still young campers who look up to you guys as role models. I don’t think Chiron would be happy to hear the two of you setting such a poor example. Get yourselves in check, and at least try to be civil with each other. The last thing we need is a death around here.”
"Hi, it's really not cool for you to grab my wrist like that, and it's also not cool for you to tell me what to do. The only people I care about here are my cabin; the rest aren't my responsibility, and I'm not yours," Juniper said flatly. "No one's trying to kill each other, I really don't know where you got that idea. We're mildly annoyed; there's a huge difference."
“I wasn’t telling you what to do, I was advising. There’s a huge difference.” Rayvn’s voice and expression clearly conveyed the message that he was bored. “You little Apollo kids need to be careful, and if you,” he looked to Athena’s child, “If you are as smart as you think you are, you know what’s best for you. And I assure you it is not arguing with each other at seven in the morning.” The older boy let go of the two girls’ wrists and made his way back to the pavilion to be with his sister. Some people really knew how to get on his nerves, but he wasn’t going to lose control. Not now…
Jade stares at him for a second before replying. “Sure. Ok.” She pushed her hair and began to walk away ashamed. He seemed nice.
"Seems a lot less like advising when you've got to grab people's wrists in order to 'advise' them," Juniper muttered with an eye roll. She headed back to her cabin and stared at the ceiling blankly. She was bored. And pissed. And a terrible cabin leader, clearly.
“Take a chill pill Juniper!” Jade turned towards the Apollo cabin leader.
Cielle looked up from her place at the hades table and looked at the bit of food in front of her. She put the bar in her pocket and chugged the juice. Once she finished, she wiped her mouth and made her way to the cabin, intending on grabbing her weapons then going into the forest to train in privacy.
(Just putting á la bump here for when people are ready)
(Should we skip to the prophecy?)
(I think so)
(Coolio, so we'll just say that they're all outside training. Who wants to be Rachel?)
(May I?)
(I don't want to so I'm cool with that)
(Totally, my dude)
A flurry of bright red waves could be seen rushing from the doors of the Big House down to the training area. A woman with paint splattered overalls ran as quickly as she could to the campers, standing on a little ledge at the side of the area where everyone would be able to see her. She knew it was coming, the feeling inside her was all too familiar, though it had been some time since this had last happened.
Rayvn was sat along the treeline, he wasn't in the mood to spar. Seeing Rachel had piqued his interest though, she rarely ever left that house.
"Hey!" he called for everyone's attention. "I think Rachel has something she wants to tell us!"
Juniper looked up in confusion before nodding and moving closer so that she could see Rachel. "This'll be interesting," she thought aloud.
(I am sorry for being dead. School got in the way.)
Carina was an early riser but not an early leaver. There was a difference she swears to anyone who would listen. She woke up at the crack of dawn but continues to fail to leave her cabin at an appropriate time. So there she is sketching out random doodles completely missing breakfast. Her siblings don't particularly care as this happens often and if one asks f she would be leaving soon, the girl will say yes in a few minutes before forgetting. So she misses everyone's bad mood and everything going on in the dining hall until she hears a shout outside.
"Hey! I think Rachel has something she wants to tell us!" It was kind of muffled from the walls of the cabin but this snaps Carina out of her day dream. She was supposed to be training! In a small panic, she quickly got ready and ran outside. Everyone was focused on what Rachel was going to say to notice a random Child of Aphrodite running around like a chicken without out its head. She stopped a little bit away from the crowd. Just enough so she could hear what was happening.
