ANDREA XIAO. xx. he/ey. chaotic neutral child of khione.

          “IF YOU ASK ME, we’re a strawberry field because someone was a fan of the beatles.” cue a face being made. “so i guess you could ask them. not the best of tastes, but whatever. could be worse, y’know? could’ve been a horse ranch. then everyone from the Real World™ is gonna think of you as THAT horse girl. or boy. or nb person. the point stands.”

  Technically, she should be training or doing anything productive. Instead, Ayalla sits hidden behind a tree off to the side of the camp. Literally just sitting there, not even reading. Maybe she’s hoping she can fall asleep until lunch time. She’s been there no longer than 30 minutes, her eyes just drifting closed, when she hears a soft sound behind her. Aware of the presence, she keeps her eyes closed and holds her hands up innocently. “Don’t mind me.”

          EY BLINKS. ONCE, TWICE. it’s not every day a voice comes out of a tree ( LIE, it’s every day if you wander close enough to the forest of camp half-blood daily and manage to either befriend or piss off the forest nymphs ). ey’s ready to jump back, — in case it’s a tree nymph glaring at em — but at the side of the familiar face, he relaxes his shoulders. “oh. it’s just you.” harsh words, but not intended to be so. “trying to imitate a nymph? maybe life as a camper isn’t PLEASING enough?”

josiexashford:

Considering Josie was so quick on her feet and seemingly made to be able to fight, the dark haired girl didn’t really enjoy the more violent activities camp had to offer. Having spent the morning training with swords, she’d spent the better half of the afternoon icing a badly sprained ankle whilst she waited for the Ambrosia to fully heal her, after she’d hesitated in making a swipe at her sparring partner. She sat on the grass, her leg set straight out in front with the ice perched on her ankle. Glancing up, Josie smiled, raising her eyebrows. “Can I help you?”

          “BAD IDEA.” it’s the first words out of andrea’s mouth, and to anyone passing by, it’ll sound like he’s reprimanding her for an injured ankle. not that they’re far off, since he’s the opponent in question — the one who caused that stumble. he takes a seat next to her, not saying another word until ey is perched on the grass with the girl. “you should’ve went for it. i’m not made of glass. i can handle a scar. which you should’ve given me if you wanted to win.” and if she’s smart enough, she’ll know this is how ey apologises for her injury.

hello.....it is i, kar, ur neighbouring nb person from an absurd timezone that i share w barely anyone. so....probably not neighbouring, but anyways. i come w an nb childe of a muse too by the name of ANDREA XIAO, so uhhh, here goes i guess??

Is that XU MINGHAO ? Oh wait, that’s our new camper, ANDREA XIAO ! HE/EY is the child of KHIONE, and they are TWENTY years old. Some people know them to be EMPATHETIC and INTENSE, but they can also be SARDONIC and IMPATIENT. Welcome to Camp Half-Blood! (( kar, 19, gmt +7, she/fae ))

this is my chaotic neutral snow child hi.

ok first of all pls don’t call em andy. like, ever. they’ll stare at u. ‘a’ is okay for a nickname tho, if andreas a mouthful. some people probs tried drea too, but andrea prefers either just andrea or ‘a’. whichever floats ur boat.

also ooohh yeah andreas pronouns are both he/him and ey/em ( u use them like they/them pronouns without the first two letters basically ), so please use them interchangeably?? across my replies i’d probs switch between the two too so don’t get confused !!

what else.....what else.....he’s a new muse and i have a habit of developing my new muses while playing them so i apologise in advance for this intro.

but like i said in the app he’s empathetic and intense but also just Wants To Sleep For Ten Years.

also tbh, loses his temper pretty fast?? so be warned.

eir entire aesthetic is basically the kind of winter that burns? the kind of snow that seeps into your bones and make you feel a chilling burn, y’know what i mean? i’m bad w poetic language, but u know.

oh yeah ey fought in the war as an unclaimed camper. andrea has been here since he was like...thirteen or fourteen, probably, and spent almost 6 years being unclaimed in the hermes cabin. kinda sucks, if you ask em, esp bc sometimes ey has to spend longer than just summers at chb.

but yeah, it was kinda a no brainer to side w chb during the war. less so because of the gods — which honestly, andrea couldnt care less about at that point esp bc he thought he would Never Know who his godly parent is — and more bc of his fellow campers. the people in chb are his family, really.

grew up with a single dad and loves him. tells his dad to go get Married already sometimes but he knows his dad feels bad about it whenever his dad claims that he just ~ doesn’t want to get married.

honestly, will argue with probably anyone and everyone and sound meaner than ey intended to.

probably isn’t Too Hard to get along with as long as u can handle eir sharp tongue.

an absolute asshole to people ey dislike so . yeah .

ALSO since minghao has a million different hair colours for gifs, y’all can just pretend andrea’s hair colour is currently dirty blonde, almost strawberry blonde kinda thing. but ey has dyed it silver, brown and black ( eir natural hair colour is dark brown ).

But I would never kiss anyone who doesn’t burn me like the sun.
