Barry was scanning over the crowd of people, while also keeping an eye on Leda so they wouldn’t be separated from each other as they left the group. Green hues flickered over to her when she spoke, while a slight laugh was escaping his lips. “Ready as I’ll ever be. Hey, maybe they’ll actually coming willingly. But who knows, maybe you just jinxed the whole thing.” He teased, before moving closer to her to place an arm around her shoulder. “Are you ready? All we gotta do is find our missing demigods, and meet up with the others. It should be easy as pie.” 

Leda smiled and kissed his cheek. “Piece of cake. Now let’s go find ours before all these food metaphors make me hungry,” she laughed. “And don’t eat the blossoms!” she warned playfully. Sticking close to Barry, Leda walked through the casino filled with teenagers who looked from various decades. Everything clashes together when in one room this way. She held her bow against her hip and looked around. “I wish we could save them all...the mortals too,” she sighed.

Miranda nodded her head as she guided the other. “Relax? I’ve got you.” she offered the other one of her kindest smiles. “It’s all about working with your partner and finding the rhythm.” she added as she glanced around them. “No ones watching, only me and besides who would believe a ditsy blonde if you do make a mistake?”

Elise smiled a bit, although she was trying not to. It was hard not to smile when Miranda was smiling at you. She glanced uneasily around them to make sure the blonde wasn’t lying to make her feel better. “Alright, fine. I’ll try it, but I’m warning you, the only way I know how to move is in combat,” she looked down to hide the fact that she was actually blushing from embarrassment over whatever moves she was about to do next. She decided to just sway a bit to the music first, even that made her feel ridiculous and she groaned.

Although they were finally at the casino and ready to go find their missing demigods, Leda only hoped the news she discovered on the way there wasn’t obvious to Barry. She tried to put the thought away until after the quest was done, but she couldn’t help realizing she’d have to be extra careful now. She pulled an arrow from her quiver and loosely held it to the bow, ready to separate from the group. She looked over to her boyfriend and smiled slightly. “Ready for this? It shouldn’t be too hard, right?” she smirked.

“I need your help. Right now,” Leda grabbed her best friend by the arm and dragged her off towards the gas station bathrooms. She couldn’t believe her luck, the realization that she hadn’t noticed until just now on their way to saving demigods? Worst timing ever. She gave no explanation for them separating from the group until they were at the washroom. “Guard the door,” she ordered before locking herself in the bathroom and taking out the plastic stick.

It didn’t take long for her to open the door again and finally look Lena in the eyes. “Can you wait with me?” she asked, fear clear in her expression as she lifted the little stick that would soon tell her if she was pregnant or not.

“ I suppose being the child of a god of war doesn’t exactly extend to a peaceful life, ” he remarked with a small smirk. The same applied to him, however, despite his mother’s sperm donor being the god of peaceful death. He moved over to make room for Elise, then moved a container of paste and an extra cloth in between them. “ Rust remover, homemade edition. Baking soda solves everything. ” Resuming his work, he added quietly, “ I’m glad you’re not going on the quest. ”

Elise began working immediately, she enjoyed how they knew each other well enough to work in unison. She sighed at the talk of the quest though. “I’m glad you’re not either, but I fucking swear to the gods if anything happens to Theo...” her anger got the best of her as her thoughts trailed off, and she suddenly stopped moving when she realized she was putting way too much force into her work. If she could have broken the blade, she would have. “I’m worried.”

Mark chuckled softly before running a hand through his hair. “Yeah it’s pretty relieving to know where not related.” he joked before nodding his head “Thats what made you so interesting, a party crasher.” he grinned before almost choking on his tongue. “Excuse me?” he raised an eyebrow at the brunette before pulling away slightly. “I have a what now?” 

“A daughter,” Leda stared at him, hoping to understand where his thoughts were headed. “Her name is Helen. I’m so sorry, I wanted to tell you but I didn’t even know your last name, I had no idea how to find you. Of course I’m not asking for anything, she’s happy and safe with my mom, I just know it’s your right to know she exists.”

(¸.• ♛ → “Maybe.” Belinda this time looked up at the redhead. “I just…before we met and before I knew who was my real mother some things happened and usually I try not to think about it but some memories are just a bit impossible to forget, is just hard to speak about this.”

“Well like I said, you can tell me anything,” Celina repeated. “Trust me, I know all about hardships before coming to camp, that doesn’t just go away once we find our place here. We still have scars.”

Mark raised an eyebrow as he turned and looked at the other a look of shock appearing on his face. “Leda?” his jaw kind of dropped as he moved to giver her a hug. “How are you?” he grinned down at her before pulling away. “Wait please tell me your dad isn’t Ares.” a frown grew on his face as he looked at the brunette before shaking his head. “You can’t be i would of seen you in the cabin earlier.” 

Leda made herself relax enough to hug him and give him a nervous smile. Thankfully he just answered the question she’d worried about the second she saw him. “Your dad’s Ares? Amazing, I was scared of that. No, mine’s Eros...still close but let’s not talk about it,” she chuckled. “I’ve been good though,” she nodded. “Actually...I’d been hoping to find you since that night. I just didn’t know how because I just crashed a party so I didn’t know anyone and I never got your last name and-” Leda took a deep breath when she realized she was rambling. “You have a daughter,” she let out in a rush so she couldn’t go back.

@itstragodiathings for mark

Leda was still trying to get used to where everything was around camp, and the fact that she was a demigod for that matter. She was off in her own thoughts, which is why she almost didn’t realize who was standing by her at the mess hall when she went to get lunch. She did a double-take, Mark was the last person she would have expected to see there, and yet there he was. She didn’t think she’d ever have to deal with this situation, she felt a lump in her throat as she tried to speak. “Mark? Wow...I didn’t expect to see you here of all places,” she laughed nervously.

“Fuck off,” Elise chuckled and smack his hand away. “I can be nice sometimes, just not with just anybody. I’m serious though, I never really had a family until I got here, then I get a fucking cool brother like you? I’m lucky,” she shrugged.

Leda shook her head. “Don’t say that, you deserve it just as much.” She’d given a lot of thought to this ever since Barry had admitted he was going on the quest, so she took a deep breath to gather her courage. “I don’t think it’s a mistake, those demigods need us. And that’s why I decided to volunteer too. Theo trained me a lot before he left, I think my archery and powers could really help. You won’t be alone.”

Elle grinned, proud of their truce of sorts. With a flourish, she sat on the dresser beside Zelina’s bunk, reaching out to accept the champagne flute. “ Ooh, this is the good stuff, ” she confirmed after a sip, not having paid attention the label earlier. “ Long live the queen, ” Elle repeated, a thrill pulsing through her. “ Victory is sweet, isn’t it ? Gods, that Head Counselor meeting was a disaster. Did you know there’s, like, a gazillion demigods trapped in a casino? Okay, like ten, but still.”

Zelina was ready to enjoy this moment of peace, but her attention perked at the news again. “The Lotus one? I didn’t think there were any left there. Wow, could you imagine going in there and not coming out for decades? Let me guess, some noble self-sacrificing types volunteered to go on a rescue mission?” she assumed. No one would catch her risking that, she was sure the monsters at the casino would try extra hard to keep a Zeus kid in their grasp.

(¸.• ♛ → “I know.” She says now turning around to look at the other one with a small smile on her lips. “But sometimes I just feel I am the way I am because of that and I hate it, sometimes i do hate myself deep down, even if I act all confident…” Belinda admitted now just avoiding her sister’s look because she didn’t want to look at her, she felt a bit ashamed to say this and show weakness. “I guess I just never told anyone about this.”

@ofxstories continued from (x)

“Why not talk about it?” Celina suggested, she hated to see that her sister kept this bottled up. “I know we have this...reputation or whatever around camp, but that doesn’t matter. I’m here if you want to tell me now,” she offered. “No one should suffer in silence.”

Mirada grinned at the other before taking her hand. “I wouldn’t of asked you unless i was sure Elise.” a small laugh escaped her lips as she pulled the other onto the dance floor. “I won’t bite, unless you ask me to.” 

Elise let herself be dragged mostly because she had no idea what was going on. She simply stared as people danced around them, not sure how to move this way. “Kinky. I don’t know about this, how to do...this,” she gestured to the people around them, feeling more and more awkward as the seconds passed.

“ Oh, you’re fine, then ! ” There was still a sign to make, but she was on full alert after the last time she was left in charge of refreshments. “ Thank you, I did. They’re my dad’s recipe. How has your day been, Zel ? ”

“Well props to your dad then,” Zel nodded her approval. “Oh, you know, the usual chaos of camp and me trying to dodge what I can. I guess you know I’m second now, I heard that meeting was eventful to say the least. How’re you, Katie?”

“ And that’s why I can manage to tolerate you, ” he reminded her, a chuckle following. “ Nothing special. I somehow got put in charge of taking care of the new kids’ weapons after one of your brothers didn’t show for training last week. Tell him I want him dead, yeah ? ”

Elise smirked at the compliment. “Just tolerate? I see how it is,” she chuckled. “My brothers always have people who want them dead, you’ll have to get in line. I guess it comes with the hot-headed Ares thing. Need any help?” she asked as she stepped closer and starter helping before getting an answer.
