Was that meant to offend me? *looks at her amused* I meant the dark hair and eyes *rolls my eyes*

[disdana]

Sure not, you don’t need me to do that. *Smiles* Your hair is actually a lot darker, but okay. 

[thaliaxgrace-deactivated2019123]

No. It’s just your hair and eyes, and the way you talk. You get aggressive quite easily.

[disdana]

Wow, thanks. You look very lovely today yourself precious. 

[thaliaxgrace-deactivated2019123]

It’s just your features.

[disdana]

Are telling me I look like an undead?

[thaliaxgrace-deactivated2019123]

I was just curious. Really? I was guessing Pluto..

[disdana]

*Frowns* Why in the god’s names would I descend of Pluto? 

[thaliaxgrace-deactivated2019123]

Just seems a bit weird..who’s your parent?

[disdana]

Querella. *Crosses her arms* Why would that matter? 

[thaliaxgrace-deactivated2019123]

I always found it quite stupid. Punishing someone for being too self absorbed.

[disdana]

We get punished for everything we do, why not this?

[missluellaramirez]

Yeah, I guess. Well, anyways, I gotta go run a relay race. Nice talking to ya! *waves goodbye and runs off*

[disdana]

Oh really now? Good luck. 

[thaliaxgrace-deactivated2019123]

Ooh how creepy.

[disdana]

Oh how realistic.

[missluellaramirez]

Well if you want to look at it like that.

[disdana]

I guess it’s different for everybody. Depends where you want and can get. 

[thaliaxgrace-deactivated2019123]

What do they say about hubris? *smirks*

[disdana]

*Whispers, a smile on her lips* It kills.

[thaliaxgrace-deactivated2019123]

Interesting..I don’t train that much but the campers here do.

[disdana]

Ah well, you know what they say about hubris.

[disdana]

.

[missluellaramirez]

I’m not saying you’re afraid, I’m saying in general a lot of demigods are afraid to die let alone be eaten by monsters and only put their lives on the line for the glory of whoever their parent is. Not that I hate being a demigod but if this is the way life is I think I’d want to treat myself to some dowb time and some fun and maybe forget about the whole destiny and death thing for a bit as a service to myself. Just what I do. *shrugs*

[disdana]

Well a lot of them can’t control their emotions. I guess the fear is necessary for those who are... insufficiently skilled for survival otherwise. 

[thaliaxgrace-deactivated2019123]

Not for Roman standards? You aren’t much of a fighter?

[disdana]

Well we all have the same amounts of training. And I do spend some free time on extra training but then again most of us do.

[missluellaramirez]

*raises a brow in confusion* Really? Well in that case, I’m happy to die young as opposed to living my entire life either in fear or in stone. *shrugs with a wide grin*

[disdana]

Fear has notting to do with it. It’s just thinking forward.

[thaliaxgrace-deactivated2019123]

Jason Grace *nods* Do you fight a lot?

[disdana]

Oh, right. *Shrugs again* I guess it depends. Not for Roman standards.

[missluellaramirez]

Oh, well, that’s fun I guess if your entire live revolves around just fighting.

[disdana]

Survival of the fittest, no? You can try to cloak it in optimism as much as you want but in the end we just don’t have the luxury of prioritizing anything else.
