TEST DRIVE MEME

So you think you have what it takes to be a demigod? Want to spend a summer at Camp Half-Blood, but can't decide who you wanna toss in? Give us a whirl right here!
Disclaimer: Any and all medical bills resulting from injuries at camp will not be covered by the gods

Prompts for your convenience!:

1. Fashion disasters. That is what you all are, at least according to Aphrodite's cabin (seriously, neon orange?). But since it's the uniform, you have to at least try to make it work. What are your creative ideas for style in the summer sun when you have to wear apparently the ugliest shirt known to man?

2. Defending the line. A hell hound has been attacking camp borders! Rather than risk it getting in, it's up to the campers to dispatch it as quickly as possible. Make a plan, form groups and take this guy out? Or try to fight it on your own. (After all, "hero" tends to tie in with "idiot.")

3. Training grounds. A normal day on the training grounds. Archery practice, swordplay, and a climbing wall spitting lava! Learn yourself some skills while you still can, otherwise you might end up barbecue in a real combat situation.

4. Beach party! Day off and we are chilling on the beach. It's nice being so close to the water, right? And I promise Poseidon won't try to drown ~~most of~~ you.

5. Prank victims. SOMEONE (looking at you, Hermes kid), has decided to lock anyone in the bathroom around the time the most people shower. This is a problem, as SOMEONE (looking at you, Hermes kid) also lost the key to the bathroom. It might take a while for them to find it, or they might just blow down the door. So what do you feel like doing tonight, my poor trapped demigods?

Or just go with something of your own! Feel free to check out or FAQ for more ideas, and don't forget to check out or other links, too! (Like our reserves and apps? winkwink?)

[Izanami listened patiently, her expression remaining impassive long after Hinata had finished speaking. After a moment, however, a small smile graced her face; yes, love between siblings was something she could understand very well.]

Then that is something to be held onto, even knowing that our existence was a lie until now.

[The grey-haired woman's smile doesn't really scare Hinata, though she's sure that it would be off-putting to some.]

As I said, the thought is probably moot by now, considering my cousin is no longer amongst the living. And if that is the case, I have nothing connecting me to my old life.

[Izanami paused a moment as he mulled that over, absently toeing the ground with her bare feet. After a moment, she looked back up at her, her smile turning a bit secretive.]

I know an individual that would say such bonds persist in our hearts. I do not understand this, personally, but perhaps it is something humans can appreciate.

[The bared feet made the woman appear to seem more human, but her words were too standoffish to be of any comfort to Hinata.]

I suppose that person is correct, in the grand scheme of things, but I am too...tired after learning all of this to hold to that. Perhaps later I will feel differently.

[She wasn't human, dammit... at least, not that she would say she was. Even she had to admit the frailness in this body, the fact that she couldn't hide the reminder of her death. She hated everything about this form, this camp, and this truth.]

[But she wouldn't say it out loud.]

Perhaps so. In time, I suppose we will all come to accept this fate that we were born into.

[There might have been a bitter edge to her words, but it was carefully masked, as was the expression on her face.]

[Hinata spent her entire life before coming here around people who lived behind masks, making her more than a little adept at reading what laid underneath the surface. This woman, whomever she had been, was incredibly displeased with their current situation.

Well, that made two of them. However, Hinata would accept it in time. She didn't think the other woman would.]

I suppose so, but I have heard that that is not always the case.

[The mask dropped briefly at that, and the cold gaze that met Hinata was practically cursing, demanding to know how she was able to read her. It was gone in a blink, however, and the fake smile was back on her face.]

How unfortunate for that individual, then.

(no subject)

She does that. A lot.

It's a good thing that Hinata understands tact, hm?

Yes. X3
