Charlotte had spent much of Valentine’s Day morning giving out cupcakes to whoever walked by. Like herself, there were plenty of single people at camp who wouldn’t be receiving gifts from a significant other, and a free sugar boost seemed like a good pick-me-up. On her way to re-fill her plate with her newest batch, the campgrounds started spinning before her. Shutting her eyes tightly for a moment, Charlotte re-opened them only to find what lay before her was not camp at all. Too astounded to even begin to take in the vivid beauty of the gardens, the voice of another caught her attention. She looked familiar, like a new friend she’d had the year before. “ … Ava ? ” she replied hesitantly. “ Are we …. Did we die ? ” 

Cara sighed as she stopped in front of her. “Cara,” she corrected the girl. “Ava’s my cousin - she’s in New Rome.” The daughter of Asclepius looked around and shook her head. “Yeah... I don’t think so...” She bent down and plunked a blade of grass, turning it over in her fingers before showing it to the fellow camper. She looked somewhat familiar, like she’d seen her around someone at camp so Cara wasn’t worried anymore about her presence. “Seems 100% real to me. Maybe this is all a surprise.” Cara looked towards the palace.

Cara had been going back into her cabin to grab her purse, realizing there was a lot of stuff being sold around camp for Valentine’s Day and she didn’t have her money or drachmas on her. As she made for the door, however, a strange force took her by surprise. It was dizzying. One moment she was at camp, the next she was standing outside a majestic castle of the likes she’d never seen before in her life. The gardens surrounding it looked infinite, surreal and the view of clouds right beside it all... was she in Olympus? The idea shocked her and she started to back away from the castle when she caught sight of a girl nearby. “Hola?!” She called. Cara cleared her throat and jogged towards her. “Hey!”

Annette sighed and smiled in relief, “yeah! After everything that’s happened I just feel like there’s gotta be something else I can do that doesn’t require me to hurt someone.” She knew that it was pretty naive of her to think that with the growing threats she’d be able to avoid any type of fight, so she did plan on learning some self defense. Still, she would try her best to help rather than hurt. “Also, I don’t know if it actually can be considered healing but I’m really good at making soothing teas, like to help with sleep or sore throats…” 

Cara nodded along. “Muy bien,” she said, standing up. Especially after all that's been going on in camp, the daughter of Asclepius knew they would need all the help they could get. “Sounds good. You can also learn a thing or two more if you want. And I’m not busy now so if you want to go over some basics for working around here...” She prompted, shoulders going up in a subtle shrug.

peaceful-annette:

“No…” Annette replied hesitantly, hoping that wasn’t some sort of requirement. “I’m a daughter of Eirene, is that ok?” 

Cara’s lips curled up and she nodded. “Yeah, definitely... I heard there’s a daughter of Eirene healer that comes her over the summer and she’s one of the best. Peace is not all too different from healing. And, anyway, if you have the determination to learn anything - you can do it. You really up for it?”

She’s not really one to open up to people. Guinevere feels like this incident has given her even more reason not to, given how it had left her feeling, but it’s then that a thought comes to her; if the Eidolon can read her thoughts anyway, she’s got nothing left to hide. Their enemies can read her weaknesses easily, meaning there’s no point trying to keep everything she’s carried inside for so long within her. She can feel tears brewing. “No. I’m not.” 

Oh no. Being a daughter of Asclepius, she knew she was in good health at the moment, which meant this was definitely all emotional. That was not so easily healed. Cara knelt down, looking at her gently and sympathetically. “Hey... You can talk about it with me if you want.” She offered softly, sitting down comfortably beside her. “Whatever it is,” she assured her.

On one hand, Lola was relieved to see that there were in fact others in whatever place she had just ended up in. On the other, it was like information was going in one ear and right back out the other. Nothing made sense. The place looked like it’d been thrown in a wood chipper. “Wh—” She took a couple steps back, running both her hands through her hair. “What does any of that literally mean? I think I’m in the wrong place… I gotta go.”

“N-No, you’re not,” Cara said, realizing this girl was actually completely new. Oh Gods. She put a hand up, “Wait, listen. If you were able to walk through the borders, that means you’re a half blood... like the rest of us. Which means this is where you were suppose to be. It’s called Camp Half Blood.” She smiled nervously. “Look, I know how you’re feeling. I’ve been through the same thing.”

Walking up to the infirmary Annette felt a little anxious, after all this is where Jasper tried to attack her. After looking around she saw Cara doing some paperwork and approached her, “hi, I was wondering if someone could teach me some first aid stuff?” 

[carina-diaz]

Cara looked up, closing the folder of documents. “Oh...” She said, not having expected such a request. It wasn’t often people wanted to work at the infirmary - which tended to be a lot of stress and a lot of work. She expected this girl to be a daughter of Apollo, especially since she already knew all her half siblings and she wasn’t once of them. “Are you a daughter of Apollo?”

41 + 45

41. Does your character feel that they deserve to have what they want, whether it be material or abstract, or do they feel they must earn it first?

Cara feels like she has to earn what she gets. One reason she hated learning that she was the doctor of Asclepius was she felt like it might not have been all her doing what got her to medical school. She wants to earn it.

45. What does your character believe will happen to them after they die? Does this belief scare them?

She is starting to believe she’ll go to the Underworld. Hopefully, to Elysium. But she still hopes and has faith that God is real, so Elysium is basically also Catholic heaven.

[carina-diaz]

11+36

11. In what situation was your character the most afraid they’ve ever been?

Finding out she was a demigod and coming to camp. Now, it’s the Eidolon takeover.

36. How does your character behave around people they dislike?

Polite but potentially passive aggressive.

[carina-diaz]

5 and 6

5. On an average day, what can be found in your character’s pockets?

Her phone, ambrosia, healing potion, bandaids and some gum.

6. Does your character have recurring themes in their dreams?

She dreams about her father a lot, working at his desk. Cara thinks perhaps he’s just trying to get her to know him, despite not saying anything in the dreams.

[fxirandjust]

She’s at a loss for words. She feels like a monster; but that’s her birth right, Guinevere muses bitterly, her thoughts ambling towards her father. She quickly dismissed it, trying her hardest to hide the anger and pain. She couldn’t believe that she’d been so easy to take over, and had been unable to fight it. She’d destroyed so much, torn down the cabins of smaller gods, taunted demigods with migraines that prevented them from fighting back. So much for lawfulness. Guin feels empty on the inside, almost as though that… thing had carved a hole inside of her, which now remained empty, desperate for something to fill it. She looks up as she hears someone come closer. She looks broken. She feels it too.

[carina-diaz]

“Hey... Are you alright?” Cara murmurs, bending down close to the girl but still trying to give her enough space. Her expression is full of pity and concern. So many campers looked like her lately, especially though who’d been possessed. It was understandable, but Cara only wished there was something they could do to help. Physical ailments she could heal... emotional? Not so much.

The words her mother had written echoed in her head, playing over and over. I can’t guarantee you’ll find all the answers you’ve been looking for, but going there is an important first step. At the very least, I hope you will find some peace of mind, my dearest Eloise.

Lola had packed most of her belongings up, driving to a place she’d only recently learned about. A place her mom called Camp Half-Blood. Her entire life as she had ever known was not as it seemed, but she trusted her mom, and if what she’d been told was true, Lola was about to dive into the deep end of an pitch black pool of unknown. Following the directions she’d been left, the girl found the place. She noticed a few cars parked a few dozen yards fro a wooden arch, so that’s where she parked hers as well. 

With her bag hanging off her shoulder, Lola ventured into the mysterious place her mom had sent her to. What she found was a half-destroyed camp. Her stomach turned to knots as panic settled in. “Oh god…” What the hell was this place? Her breathing got heavy and her hands turned ice cold. Her mother’s letter, which she’d been clutching in one hand, dropped. “I gotta get outta here.” 

[carina-diaz]

Cara was rushing back to the infirmary after a shower break when she saw what appeared to be a startled, arriving camper. She looked around, seeing there was no one else to help her and sighed. The daughter of Asclepius rushed over and offered a small, mustered smile. “You picked a great time to come back... or if you’re new, even better.” She tried a joke. But, realizing she wasn’t really feeling it, Cara let out another sigh. “I’m Cara, daughter of Asclepius. Camp went through a bit of a struggle yesturday... we’ve recouping.”

Penny paused, wondering if what she had done was indeed scary. She hadn’t meant for it to be, she herself was just scared. She snapped back into it when the girl pulled her along, breaking into a sprint towards the infirmary. “Finally.” She let out a relieved breath when they got there. “Oh gosh,” She breathed, seeing that the place was in shambles.

People fought restlessly outside the half destroyed infirmary but she could see fellow healers still trying their best to work with what they had inside. Of course, it would only last as long as the non-possessed campers defended it. “At least it’s still up... slightly,” she said breathlessly. “Thank you.” Cara told the girl, shooting her a tired smile before running in.

[carina-diaz]

flowerchild-penny:

“See? Useful and super cool!” She grinned, right before screaming as something exploded into pieces to her left. “I swear I’m gonna die from a heart attack rather than actually being attacked.” 

Cara jumped back and let out a choked sound of fear and surprise at the explosion before looking wide eyed at Penny. “I think you’re gonna be fine,” she said rather breathlessly. “At least you can do that scary plant thing.” She pulled at her arm when a golden-eyed camper saw them from across the Green. “Let’s go!”

“If you have any better ideas, then I’m listening. We can’t keep knocking them out and we don’t know how long before they give up, if they even do so.” Diala glares at her in defiance. “I know what it does, too. It can kill, but so can everything else in this damn world. If I die, at least it’ll be for something worth it.”

[carina-diaz]

Cara glared back at her. “You can focus on defense instead of offense! Protect the infirmary - or the docks where some of the younger campers are still escaping! Let someone else take care of the brutal fighting for once!” The daughter of Asclepius was genuinely worried for her friend to the point she felt almost angry for her self-harming tendencies.

soleilaathayer:

“Yeah. I love Ava.” Sol nodded and kept walking quickly. “Any idea how she is?”

“Last I heard, she decided to study music in New Rome. Singing in particular, like her dad,” Cara said, breathlessly as they hurried along. “I think she wants to be a teacher.” She flinched, looking over at a nearby fight and then back to Soleila. “I’m glad she’s not here to see this.
