Phoebe: No less than her first full day at the Convent, Phoebe had already started explore her now home. She had found the Mountain Pond in no time and was standing right in one of the small ledges the water ran down.

Octavian: Octavian took he free time lay out in the sun as a lion. He was sprawled out on a sunny rock near the pond, fast asleep and not noticing Phoebe as she approached. He rolls over in his sleep with a grunt and a thud.

Phoebe: Just as she was about to follow the water, Phoebe heard a grunt and a thud. Being afraid that it was a monster, she grabbed her fork from her pocket, turning it into a trident, and started to head towards where she heard the noise. Phoebe could hear the deep breathing of a sleeping animal, which worried her even more and once she saw a lion, it freaked her out a little bit, aiming her trident at the lion in case it woke up and attacked her.

Octavian: He ear pricked up at the sound of the weapon being drawn and the person walking closer. He slowly starts to rise, sitting back on his haunches. He turns to her and lifts up a paw, waving at her.

Phoebe: She has seen all her life, but a lion waving was a new thing for her. She waved back to lion while resting her trident on her shoulder.

Octavian: He lets out an amused rumble before morphing into his normal human form, clothed and smirking a little bit. "Well hello there."

Phoebe: She gave a confused look as the lion turned into a man. "Hi. How come you can do that? I'm not judging because I can replace my legs with a fish tail, I just find it curious."

Octavian: He nods. "Comes from my father side, half monster. Ever hear of the Nemean Lion?" He reaches his hand up and runs his fingers through his hair.

Phoebe: "So your dad is the lion from legend that is super tuff? And I thought having a dad that has two fish tails instead of legs is weird."

Octavian: "The one and only. Wasn't much of a father and not like my mother wanted to. The gods deemed it approiate punishment for her after a crime was commited on her in a temple. Bet yours was a bit better than that. You the daughter of some sea god?"

Phoebe: "I never met him but he sort of helped. Yeah, my dad is Triton, so like the messenger of the sea."

Octavian: "Hmm." He walks over to her and points at the trident. "Gift from him? Or you pull that off some demigod."

Phoebe: "Yeah, gift from him. He gave me a pet as well but I haven't seen him since I left San Fransico." Phoebe said, looking down the path the water has made, to see if she could spot the dolphin her dad gave her. "I see it as a ironic joke now. I love the movie The Little Mermaid and the main character brushes her hair with a fork, which is what this can turn into." Phoebe turned her trident back into its fork form.

Octavian: "It's a weapon at least. And can't say I recall seeing that movie. I can guess it's about a mermaid. He walks over to a nearby tree and leans against it.

Phoebe: "You're right about that. I would rather use it then hitting people or doing a magicarp and splashing them with my tail. Yeah, mermaid that finds a way to have legs and goes on land. That movie is why my hair is as red as it is." Phoebe said, tying up her hair.

Octavian: He chuckles a bit. "I have an axe and a sword, and claws if I want. And it looks good on you. At least you can managablely cut it if you want. Not needing ungodly strong shears."

Phoebe: "That would be terrible. Would burn some back work or is your skin and stuff to strong for that?"

Octavian: "Not sure, never tried. My skin doesn't burn easily normally." He stand up and walks back up to her. "Also, never indroduced myself. Octavian, but you can just call me Van."

Phoebe: "But hair burns easier than skin so it might work. That makes you sound like a car, I would rather call you Octo."

Octavian: He raises his eyebrow quizzically at her. "First time someone has wanted to call me that. Still not the worst name I've been called. Speaking of, what's yours?"

Phoebe: "It just reminds me of an octopus and I tend to give people nicknames that are like something from the ocean. My name's Phoebe. Nobody has been able to come out with a nickname for that yet."

Octavian: He scratches his cheek as he thinks for a second."How about B? Short and simple."

Phoebe: "It's better than what I thought you would have said. Anyway, I'm guessing you don't go to Camp Half-Blood?"

Octavian: He huffs before laughing. "That demigod daycare? Yea no, im one of the last things some of those gods want to have anywhere near their prrcious camp. Can say i remember Triton being big enough to have kids there. Unlike your grandfather."

Phoebe: "He kind of can but we don't have a cabin. I was there for a week in the Hermes Cabin until I left and joined the Broken Convent. I still don't see fairness that Hera has a cabin there but my dad doesn't."

Octavian: "Typical, the gods barely seeing anything beyond themselves." He lets out a sigh and relaxes himself. "Anyway, what vrought you up here?"

Phoebe: "It isn't their fault, just their children seeing more importance in Olympians than other gods. I went exploring and the water basically called to me."

Octavian: He nods and walks over to the edge of the pond. "It's like a second home to you, right?"

Phoebe: "I'm in it more than my actual home, but kinda."

Octavian: He laughs a bit. "I should have expected that. Anf it's better than living in a please that's the furthest thing from home." He looks at the water for a bit than up at her. "Can you breath underwater?"

Phoebe: "That is like asking can I breath air. Of course a child of a sea god can breath underwater. Like I said before, I can have a fish tail instead of legs. That would be pointless if I couldn't breath underwater."

Octavian: "Fair enough. Guessing since you spend a lot of time in the water, you almost prefer the tail."

Phoebe: "I did when I was younger, like I had a period of time when I was like 6 where I had a little bit of trouble walking. Now, I slightly like having a tail more than legs."

Octavian: "Seems like it would be fun to swim like that. I can do a half transformation but it's inconvenient at times if you get what I'm saying."

Phoebe: "Yeah, I defiantly know." Phoebe tried to imagine Octavian half lion, half human but didn't happen. "I really want to see you do a half transformation."

Octavian:  He looks over at he snd smirks a little. "Alright then." He shifts, growing ing height and size. He face and neck look exactly like a lion but his bodystands like aman was lion legs and a tail. He body is covered in course hair along with a mane. he turns to show her. "Well?"

Phoebe: She moved away from Octavian as he changed as she thought it looked really weird but moved close to him once he finshed changing. "You look epic. Almost as epic as I do when I have a tail."

Octavian: He looks down at her and smirks a bit. "Thanks I guess. How about you show me now."

Phoebe: "I swear a boy asked me this last month about something different." She looked at the amount of water going past their feet. "I could do it here but I'll fall over so if you're willing to catch me or we can head down stream a bit."

Octavian: "We can move downstream. Here" He leans down and scoops her up with one hand, setting her on his forearm. He pulls he close onto her tight. "Hang on B." Giving her minimal time to ready. He squats down and leaps several dozen feet, landing surprising softly. He sets off at a steady job before stoking and a pool where the water runs slow and deep. Van turns to her. "This look good enough"

Phoebe: As Octavian picked her up, Phoebe used a bit of the water to tie herself on his forearm in case she fell, untying herself once they landed. "I might be hard for you to see me if I don't try to get out of the water." Phoebe said as she walked into the water keeping herself dry until the water was up to the top of her stomach, where she changed her legs into a bright green fish tail, falling face first into the water. She started to swim back towards the edge of the pool, her head sticking out of the water.

Octavian: He wades into the water to where it's up to his knees. He watches her dives in and start to swim back, looking down at her lower half. "Hmm, colorful. Looks like fun."

Phoebe: "Best fun I've ever had." Phoebe said before she splashed Octavian

Octavian: He huffs and chuckles. He leans down and splashed her back. "Playful too."

Phoebe: "Got a problem with that?" Phoebe said as she turned her tail back into legs and stood up.

Octavian: He smirks at her. "Not at all B." He uses his entire paw to scoop up the water and splash her again.

Phoebe: She just stays completely dry after Octavian splashes her. "You're trying really hard to make me soaking wet aren't you?" Phoebe said before shw used her powers and made twice as much water as Octavian tried to used to splash her to make it float above his head then just burst like a water balloon.

Octavian: He looked up just in time to see it pop and drench him in water. He snorts to blow water out of his nose and starts to laugh hardily. He looks down at her with a smile. "Not that hard but com on. Just trying to have some fun is all."

Phoebe: "Well so am I. Using my powers is my way of making up the size difference." Phoebe went closer to Octavian, craning her for exaggeration to look at his face. "And there is a big size differenace."

Octavian: "Still not much fun if I'm the only one getting wet." He grins as he shakes violently, sending water in all directions. Once he's mostly dried off, He shifts back into his normal human self.

Phoebe: This time, the water did get Phoebe and made her wet. "You seriously made it feel like it was raining."
