Need A Hand?

Hey, my name's Astrid. Even though I may look like some twelve year old, I swear I'm just a sixteen year old who will probably be five foot forever. Yeah, one of my arms is made of metal, and if you ever fuck with me I'll punch your lights out with it. Oh, my dad's also Hephaestus, and someday I'm going to rule the world with an iron fist, literally.

Dinah was walking back from training and was ready to plan some chaos, she had been walking mindlessly to her room while texting when the unexpected happened. She was hit by someone moving faster than they should have, and as she got up she could already feel a bruise forming on her arm. Whoever did this would pay, and when she saw who it was she felt ecstatic about it. “Astrid.”

[astrid-wilson]

When Astrid sat up from the ground and saw who she hit she groaned and laid back down. “Dinah.” Out of all people she could have rode into, it had to be her. The palm of her hand was bleeding from a huge scrape, and she had one on one of her knees which caused a rip in her pants. Julian was sure to chew her out about all this later. She slowly got up and made sure she didn’t tear or rip anything else and sighed. “Whelp, I’d say that I’m sorry, but I’m really not. Guess that’s what you get for being a total bitch.” Astrid knew that was probably not the best approach, but how could she forgive someone who broke her damn leg?

It was quite often the girl’s mind took a walkabout, as her imagination was vivid and her focus not too good. Fleur believed it was an Athena thing, to be lost in your own head, and whilst it was certainly good for thinking, it was not good for daily life. Ever since her first day, the girl had been taking strolls each morning, mostly to just have a few moments of peace in her now hectic life. However, per usual, her thoughts were elsewhere as she dawdled along, and the daughter of the goddess of wisdom crashed with another camper, falling to the ground as she did. “Mon dieu! Je suis desole! S’il vous plait pardonnez-moi!” She began to ramble in French, a habit that occurred when the girl got worried or apologetic.

[astrid-wilson]

Astrid felt really guilty for colliding with the other girl and quickly got up, ignoring the injuries she may have received. “I’m really sorry, are you hurt?” She didn’t understand any of the words coming out of her mouth, even though she noticed it was French and her best friend spoke the language. She really should get Vic and her siblings to teach her how to speak Spanish and French. “Um sorry, I don’t speak French...”

[hunterbarrow]

“Uh, okay.” Hunter was confused as to what was happening, but of course that didn’t mean he was going to deny her when she crashed her lips against his. He kissed her back and wrapped his arms around her body, bending down to make up for their height difference. He wasn’t even thinking about if Vic would be pissed or not.

[astrid-wilson]

Astrid didn’t expect Hunter to kiss her back, so when he did fireworks were going off in her mind. She had never kissed anyone like this until now, and she wondered why she hadn’t done it sooner. His arms felt so comfortable around her and she stood on her toes so she could wrap her arms around his neck. She thought about telling him how she felt now, but she was too distracted now to even speak a word.

Finally, he’d been waiting to go back to New Athens and grab some of his favorite food, tacos. He was going to take these back to Camp and chow down, not wanting to deal with a possible crowd that could take place in town. He was just heading down the paved path when his own sister collided with him, and his food went flying. “Aw, Astrid!” He looked up, seeing his sister. “You alright?”

[astrid-wilson]

Astrid hit the pavement pretty hard, but thankfully all she ended up with were scrapes on her palm and knees. She quickly recovered from the fall and wipped some of the blood on her pants, and when she noticed that it was her older brother she had ramed into a grimace appeared on her face. “Shit, sorry Caspian. Yeah I’m fine, just some scrapes. What about you?” She held out her metal arm to him with an eyebrow raised. “You need help getting up?”

[astrid-wilson]

It had been forever since Astrid last skateboarded anywhere, there were barely any places on camp where she could easily ride, but now that they had New Athens she could have way more fun. The people and buildings passed by her as she sped up on her worn in skateboard, and she chuckled as some campers shouted angrily as the small girl passed between them. Suddenly, someone walked in her path and it was too late for her to swerve out of the way. “Oh sh-” She collided with the camper, and it didn’t look like the outcome was going to be pretty.

43. Has anyone told you they don’t want to ever lose you?

Yeah, I get it from Victorie and my siblings all the time. Guess I’m just so clumsy that they have to remind me almost every day that they don’t want to lose me.

56. Do you think you like someone?

Oh I more than like someone, I’m pretty sure I’m extremely in love with someone. Wow, It actually feels kind of good putting that out there.

81. Last person you cried in front of?

Pssh Me? Cry? Please I would never. Probably in front of Vic and Julian when I had that complete breakdown at Bunker nine.

[astrid-wilson]

64. Who is probably talking a load of crap about you right now?

There could be a lot of people talking crap about me right now, I’m not really one for making friends, but I’d like to say that recently it’s probably my dear brother Simon. We didn’t exactly start our relationship on good terms, but it’s not like I regret any of it.

[hunterbarrow]

Hunter watched the girl waiting for her to do something, he began to chuckle as she blushed after he spoke. He waited and waited, she came to him yet stood there awkwardly. “Yo, what’s up?” He said waiting for her to do something.

[astrid-wilson]

“Just well... Oh nevermind.” Astrid hung her head and sighed deeply. She took two steps out of his room, but stopped and turned back around. “You know what, I actually remember what I came here for now.” She moved quickly before she regretted what she was about to do. If she couldn’t say that she loved Hunter verbally, might as well take a different route. This idea was completely crazy and extremely risky, yet she found herself pulling him in for a kiss anyways. Oh my gods Astrid what are you doing?! Her mind was racing with so many thoughts, but it was too late to back out now.

[simononfire-blog]

“Yeah because that’s the goal. Burning down the place I’m supposed to sleep.” He wasn’t trying to burn anything when it happened. It just ended up happening, open flame jumped on him and he freaked anyone else would have done the same. “I’m trying but it’s kind of hard okay?”

[astrid-wilson]

She couldn’t help herself anymore. Astrid punch Simon in the arm out of anger and glared. “Stop being sarcastic, that’s my job.” She never thought that she would ever have a sibling who was so annoying, usually the Hephaestus teen got along with all of her brothers, but she couldn’t help but hate this one. “Well then try harder.”

@FullmetalAstrid: Obviously no guys allowed bcs I already have to put up with a cabin full of them now

[simononfire-blog]

“I just found out I had these powers like two days ago. Of course I’m reckless with it.” Simon rolled his eyes at her, she wasn’t very helpful but he was worse than she was with this whole thing. “Right so there’s one possibly normal one based on their names.”

[astrid-wilson]

“You better learn to somehow control your stupid powers soon though, because I am not going to have our cabin burnt to the ground by you.” When he rolled his eyes at her it took all of Astrid’s will to not punch him out of annoyance. “ Hey, it’s cool that we all have different names, Makes our cabin stand out. All of our brothers are great too, don’t be so quick to judge.”

[ladymariangel]

[simononfire-blog]

Looking down at his hands he clenched his jaw cursing his true father. “So I was given this power for what reason exactly? To hurt people? Because so far that’s all I’ve done.” He couldn’t help but be a bit hostile. She wasn’t helping his mood and finding out it was just him stuck with this was angering him. “Brothers? How many?”

[astrid-wilson]

“Well no, you’re supossed to figure out how to use your powers in a good way, but since you have no idea how to use them all you’ve been is reckless.” Astrid didn’t understand why she had to explain all of this to him, being the helpful sibling wasn’t exactly her forte. “You have three brothers. Their names are Julian, Freedom and Caspian, and I’m sure that they would be more enthusiastic about your annoying questions than I am.”

[babskim-deactivated20150521]

At one of the stores in New Athens, Barbara walked through an aisle of clothes, running her hands across the dresses and coats. “Sandra, you shouldn’t have to do that. It was my fault–you didn’t do anythi–” she paused, gritting her teeth and pausing at a shelf. “–they sue everyone with a higher IQ than them,” she took hold of the shelf to try and cool her temper, “you shouldn’t have to–shit!” In her anger, she’d pushed the entire shelf over, and it came down with a crash. “I’m so sorry!”

[astrid-wilson]

Shopping wasn’t really what Astrid was interested in, but hearing about New Athens made her curious, so she decided to go check out all the stores. She did need some new pants anyways, the ones she had right now were torn and worn from her being careless. The small Hephaestus girl was passing by one of the shelves in a store, when all of a sudden it started to fall over. “Oh my go-” before she could finish the shelf came down on her, but luckily she wasn’t hurt, just stuck under the debris.“Are you fucking kidding me. The one time I decide to go out and shop. The one time!”

[aleamxloan]

“What on earth possessed you to make you think that was a good idea?”

[astrid-wilson]

“Well I mean, it seemed like a good idea at the moment. At least I know I won’t be riding anymore pegasi anytime soon.” She popped her metal arm back in place where it was bent and scoffed.
