If there was one thing that wouldn’t let him get his spirits down, it was his birthday. So even with the encroaching threat of monsters, the son of Hephaestus was in a cheerful mood as he sat back and relaxed. It was his time to relax. Despite the fact that everyone was running around preparing weapons, arming themselves, Oli had taken the day off. He sat on top of the Hephaestus cabin and watched the people go by. It wasn’t until he heard someone join him that he finally moved. “Hello! Welcome to the slackers club!” He said with a chuckle. 

“Slackers club? Oh no, I don’t think I could ever be part of such a club. This is too busy going twenty four seven, so even if I look like I’m doing nothing, I’m still doing something.” Alec commented, tapping his head. “I saw you up here and thought it’d be a good place to hide from my sister, never thought of it before. So I’m testing it out.”

“maybe i’m just a really naive soul then because i still totally care about love.” no matter how many times her heart broke, she still wanted that someone. "well most of us are claimed now, so least you should know who’s who and not accidentally end up kissing a sibling.” she said, a slight furrow of her brows as she thought about what he’d said. “i’d guess they’d tell you they’re about all three equally, but i totally agree. but then they’d probably think i’m about sleep first and foremost.” which wasn’t entirely wrong. 

“I guess I care on some level, but then again when you’ve never experienced it it’s easier to care less about it.” He shrugged, he was far too busy to have a relationship too. Don’t get him wrong, he loved Astoria, but he wasn’t in love with her and he was pretty sure those feelings were a whole lot different. “I’d agree with you, but the power of alcohol is a mysterious thing that makes us do many things we regret, I should know, what having fallen victim to it more then once.” Alec smirked at the other, “So you’re telling me you’re not counting down the minutes until your next nap? Man, I stereotyped you so hard.” He teased.

“Why on earth would you want to do that?”

"Because they know how to party harder than the athena kids and right now a fucking good party is what I need.”

“You can certainly try, but I have a feeling my siblings are going to be way too drunk to even help you there,” Vienna chuckled. “Nothing wrong with being single on Valentine’s Day. Then again you’re talking to somebody who sort of vowed to be single for eternity.”

“But if they’re drunk that might make them that more accommodating, I’m a senators son, I can charm my way into people’s social groups.” Alec smirked at the other, “Are you wanting to join Artemis’ squad, or is this just a personal choice?”

“That sounds so pathetic, Blackthorn. Aren’t you a strong and independent man that needs no one?” Cade teased.

“I’m a strong and independent man who needs someone to talk all my great ideas to, how are people going to know I’m brilliant if I’m forever alone. It’s not like I can pay people to follow me around to be my sound board-... wait, maybe I can do that.”

[alecxblackthorn]

“what is it about valentines that makes the couples annoyingly smug? and us singletons feel forever alone,” perhaps she’s speaking for herself but she turned to the other as she continued to grumble. “it’s such a commercial holiday, i’m sorry i know aphrodite’s the goddess of love and all that but really…”

"Y’know it’s totally just an excuse for everyone around here to make out with anyone and hope it’s not a sibling, right? I don’t think many people actually care about love, they just care about their hormones.” Alec continued, looking to the other, “Okay, maybe the aphrodite kids care about a little bit, but still- aren’t they beauty and grace first and foremost?”

[alecxblackthorn]

“How much do you think it’ll take for me to bribe one of the dionysus kids to make me an honorary member for the night, y’know just to help me forget that I’m once again alone on Valentines day.” Alec commented, “Some say I’m too insufferable to date, I say I’m too much handsome to handle.”

[alecxblackthorn]

astoria-r‌:

“I am going to bite you,” she growled, then pouted. “I’d turn them all into pigs if they raised a hand on me so no, it was not them. Orion and I had a spell off. I won.”

“Hot.” Alec commented as he winked at the other, “If this is you winning I’d hate to see what he looks like after having lost.”

Julian rolled his eyes. “Thoughtful as always, Alexander,” he drawled.

“What can I say, I care about others more then I care about myself.” He commented, a smug expression on his face as he did so. “So what did you do to piss them off? Was it a case of simply opening your mouth?”

[alecxblackthorn]

scphiacrcmwell‌:

“I think I heard something about it during class when I was eavesdropping.”

“Well it sounds like a load of bullshit to me, brilliant bullshit- but bullshit none of the less.” Alec shrugged before raising an eyebrow at the other, “And is you eavesdropping a regular thing?”

[alecxblackthorn]

jcmesallen‌:

“When have you known me not to come up with crazy ideas.”

“True. But when have those crazy ideas actually worked? Because I’m seeing low percentages.”

“This is the last time I try tinder,” Sabrina said. “That guy was a dickhead.”

“Wait-” Alec commented, holding up his hand briefly over hearing the others statement. “Why the fuck are you using Tinder when you can’t exactly leave this place- I mean, if you want to date someone in here, you don’t have go far to find them. Hardly needs a swipe right situation to find the perfect demigod for yourself. Also pretty sure it’s not smart to put your location on when you’re here.” 

[alecxblackthorn]

julian-vale‌:

Julian tried to straighten his shirt, huffing and eyeing the dryad suspiciously. “Not cool,” he muttered, plucking out the leaf from his hair.

“You know it’s funny, they have the same reaction to you as I do- though I think I’d be a little more dramatic then showering you with leaves. I’d prefer-.. you know, rocks.”

[alecxblackthorn]

austinsxmckenzies‌:

“And here I thought Athena kids were meant to be the smart ones,” Austin taunted the other. “Silly of me to assume you’d figure it out for yourself,” he added, shutting the book he had read from and setting it aside.

“Well at least I was right about my assumptions of Zeus kids being a-hole jocks. Nice to know I’m right about that.” Alec smirked, arms crossing over his chest. “Stupid of you to assume that you were making enough sense for me to figure out what the fuck you were talking about.”

[alecxblackthorn]

catrina-blackthorn‌:

“I know you’re not exactly the smartest of the bunch, but do try to keep up,” she blew him a kiss.

“I resent that and ask you to take it back, I am the smartest of us all and you know it. I’m just- a little chaotic in my smarts. Do first, regret later and all that shit.”

[alecxblackthorn]

mara-fray‌:

“If you approach me before I finish this cup of coffee, you’re doing it on your own responsibility,” Mara narrowed her eyes at the other.

“Not going to blame you because I’m the exact same, all the good stuff is gone though so I think I’m at liberty to ask where the fuck you got that?” Alec commented pointing to her mug, “I can smell the strength from here, so I know it’s none of that weak shit that’s over there.”

[alecxblackthorn]

astoria-r‌:

“Want to rethink that, sweetcheeks?” Astoria eyed him up and down, completely ignoring that her hair looked like she was electrocuted.

“Never.” Alec commented, moving closer to the other and cradling her face in his hands, kissing her nose. “You’re still cute as a button, but maybe don’t go and piss off the Zeus kids. I feel like this is the only plausible reason for why you look like this- unless it’s a fashion choice, then girl, no.”
