Eileen moved out from behind the cluster of trees. "Well I'm glad I've finally met someone with super bat hearing." She snapped quietly.

((Do you want to have them end up together? Or just friends?))
((Go with the flow? Idc either way))"It's a tracker thing." Nick said cutting off another strawberry with his throwing knife. "Plus the red hair doesn't exactly blend in with anything but these strawberries." He added
((Ok go with the flow then :) ))
Eileen rolled her eyes. "Mhmm." She said and took out her knife, and began gathering strawberries into her basket.
((Lol I was like ??:/what?!?! haha))Nick almost laughed from the sight of this girl picking strawberries into a basket but restrained himself. "My names Nick by the way." He said trying to keep a conversation, not cause she was pretty or anything but, you know, cause...
((What's his profile? I couldn't find it.))
Eileen sighed. "Li." She replied, looking over at him.
Eileen sighed. "Li." She replied, looking over at him.
((I don't think I ever made one, shhhh. I gtg though, football practice. Bye!))
((Ok continue later! Bye!!))
Eileen sighed. "Li." She replied, looking over at him.
"Li?" Nick said quizzically as he sat and watched her pick berries.((Do you happen to know where her profile is?))
Eileen sighed. "Yes, Li." She said.
((It's on Character Creation from 5 days ago... I'm using the app so I can't give you a link.))
((It's on Character Creation from 5 days ago... I'm using the app so I can't give you a link.))
((Crap sent too early hold on))
"Yes, Li." She said. Then she looked at Nick for a moment before saying "Eileen actually. But people call me Li."
Nick looked up at the clouds, "Hmmm which do you prefer?" He asked trying hard to keep his gaze up.
"Li." She replied immediately, then turned to pick more berries. She popped one strawberry into her mouth before continuing to pick more.
"Eileen it is then." Nick said smiling as he absentmindedly tossed a 2 inch knife up and down. "So Eileen, why the stealth? Or attempt rather."
Eileen glared at him as he called her by her real name but then shrugged. "Wanted to see if I could be a good hunter." She lied with the first thing that came to her mind.
"Didn't know hunting demigods was such a useful skill." Nick throw back. This girl and him were not getting along, "If that's the case don't crunch the leaves under your shoes."
Eileen couldn't help but smile a little, despite their quarreling. "Obviously."
Nick closed his eyes and sighed, "What were you actually doing? And that many strawberries isn't healthy I don't think." Nick said pointing at a full basket.
"It's for my cabin mates." She said honestly this time. "I can't stand being in the Hermes cabin for too long. Too many people." She smirked. "So I do all the errands now. And to be honest, I was hoping that no one would be here at night. So when I saw you I was trying to sneak away."
"Too many people..." Nick said under his breathe. "Alright I can believe that one." He finally decided
"Gee, thanks." She said and laughed.
An actual laugh.
That was weird.
An actual laugh.
That was weird.
Nick sat in silence for a few moments trying to get a read on this girl, "I don't know." He finally said still flipping a knife.
"Hmm?" Eileen looked over at him, snatching the knife out of the air and smirking as she twirled it in between her fingers. "Don't know what?"
Nick dropped his now unused hand. "A lot apparently, but I was referring to you just then. Difficult to read I'm afraid." He said then his breathe caught so he had to look away and mentally slap himself
Eileen gave him a confused look. "You alright there?" She asked.
"Fine." He said turned away a little. "Just a small cough." He lied, he had issues with pretty girls and he was trying really hard to hide it.
She didn't believe him at all. But she didn't show it. "Ok." She tossed the knife back to him and picked up her basket. "Guess I should get these back to the cabin. See ya." She said and with that, she turned and walked away.
((Want to have him come to the Hermes cabin or something?))
((Want to have him come to the Hermes cabin or something?))
((Sure))Nick caught the knife and sighed half relief, half disappointment.
Mali stared at the strawberry in front of her.It was red.
Plump.
And...
She sighed, putting her head in her hands.
Distraction wasn't helping.
She still felt confused, homesick, and afraid.
Chris walked through the fields and saw a girl leaning down for a strawberry. "Hello" He said trying to not look directly at her.
Mali looked up.Her black hair and "squinted" eyes set her apart from most of the other demigods.
"Hi" she said in a soft voice, blinking back the tears she'd almost let out.
I'm a freak. I grew a fish tail and that THING took me away. I didn't even really get to say goodbye
Chris's scar was burning red already over his left eye. "I'm Chris," he said
"I'm Mali Smith"Again, she felt self conscious.
An ordinary American last name on an obviously Asian person.
Stop thinking like that! You're fine. Not...weird. Not like those kids said
"And why are you so scared, Mali Smith?" Chris asked, he could feel the doubt and fear from where he was standing
Mali's eyes widened.Was it that obvious?
Apparently it was.
"I...."
She didn't know what to say.
This was someone she'd literally just met.
Could she really tell him something that he probably didn't even care to know?
"Sorry if that was abrupt but your literally filled with fear and self-doubt. It's easier to see when your the son of nightmares and dreams but still..." Chris said still feeling the fear. His scar was reacting to it and it was burning hot now.
Oh.He...felt it.
Strange.
But nothing seemed to be normal here.
"I just got here. Like, an hour ago. I grew a fish tail and...."
How could he even believe her?!
Seriously...a fish tail?
She wouldn't have believed it either unless she'd seen it...felt it grow on her...
"Hmmm, a fish tail? Who's daughter are you?" It was a little out there but after a few weeks here he was getting used to strange.
"Triton" Mali plucked at the homemade bracelet on her left hand.
She only knew a little about the minor god.
Her...father.
And what she did know was confusing; she hadn't believed anything her mother had told her, hand't listened.
So now she knew practically nothing.
Claire walked in the fields with her dark blue sneakers and baby blue short pants with CHB shirt. The smell of strawberry mixed with morning air felt so good.
Claire wonder if it's okay to grab some strawberries. She looked over and saw a girl sitting on the grass with hands full of them. She decided to walked to her direction.
"Wow, they're big." she said
"Wow, they're big." she said
