RP
Alyce: She watches her as she explores.

Thea: She goes in and twirls a bit to get a 360 view. "Wow... You know, I subdued my first monster in a lab. Sort of."

Alyce: "Great job" she says as she goes over to where the records are kept and files the synthetic armor design with them.

Thea: She watched and approached Alyce curiously, once again peeking over her shoulder.

Alyce: She smiles "This is where we keep all the designs, lab reports, and other files" She says gesturing to the labels on the organizer.

Thea: She nods and looks over them, before pulling back and placing her hands behind her back. "Organized. I like it."

Alyce: "You may see if you want the ones that are labeled classified are between us and whichever cabin it says on the sheet" She makes room for her

Thea: She goes back in and looks over them. "Huh..."

Alyce: "Yes be sure to familiarize yourself with them because you need to fill out report sheets for your reasearch so that we know what is going on and can help you if something goes wrong" She says with a smile

Thea: "Alright." She looked back to Alyce and once again asked, "Does that mean I can take a look at other people's projects too?"

Alyce: "You may but put the files back where you got them since we have to know who has to present there findings.

Thea: She nods. "Of course."

Alyce: "Those there are top secret which means it is between us and camp leadership" she points to some files.

Thea: "Why does it need to be top secret?" She tilted her head.

Alyce: "Ususually they are plans in case of an invasion or bunker locations where we can hide or our mines of celestial bronze which are only told on a need to know basis" She replies

Thea: She nods slowly and hums. "Interesting."

Alyce: "So have you done any research you wish to share with the rest of the cabin?"

Thea: "Um." She scratched her cheek. "Have you noticed how monsters apparently track us by scent? Ah, what am I saying, of course you do." She began going about the lab. "When I was younger, I used sulfur to throw a harpy off my scent. We can easily evade a monster if we disrupt their sense of smell. We'd just seem like normal humans. So if we can incorporate this idea into the synthetic armor design, we'd have an incognito tool as well!"

Alyce: "Interesting but the unusual scent would also attract the attention of mortals and other unwanted indiviuals so what plans do you have regarding that?" She asks

Thea: "Of course, we're not going to purposely make ourselves stink of sulfur or the like." She said. "I'm considering pheramones. Manipulated pheramones. It's odorless, yet works wonders to the sense of smell. Clearly to track a demigod's scent from miles away, monsters need to have at least the smelling capacity of a bloodhound. There are certain scents canines pick up that humans can't. I'm assuming this is the case with monsters. So if we can create a repellent that is undetectable by human or animal sense of smell, it can work as a masking device." She paused. "I just have to figure out how."

Alyce: She nods "Very interesting now you have to synthesize it" She starts pulling files out of the drawer.

Thea: "Mh-hm..." She mused, watching her.

Alyce: She pulls out her plans for improvements to the camp's technology shield and starts filling out forms at her work bench. "Tell me if you want anything" she says to Thea with a smile

Thea: She was silent and still for a small moment before scampering to where the papers and files were kept to start her research. The first thing she did was rush to the chemicals. "Odorlous compounds..." And she began mumbling a whole bunch of things.

Alyce: She looks at her and smiles as her brother comes in and hugs her and speaks about the research and presents a few computer models. Meanwhile another brother comes in and goes up to Thea

Athena Kid 1: "hey what are you working on?"

Thea: "An odorless masking scent." She mumbled, looking up at her half-brother and back down at the solution she was brewing. "It's supposed to disguise our demigod scents from monsters. I'm trying to figure out how to make it effective towards only monsters, but undetectable by animals or other humans."

Zach: He pulls out some chemicals and explains how they will help her with the objective.

Alyce: She is working with her brother but couldn't help looking and smiling.

Thea: She listens for a while before taking the chemicals. "Yes, that could work." She starts brewing them together. "Yes... Yes!" She grinned softly at him. "Thank you."

Zach: "no problem" he says with a smiling

Alyce: She completes the forms and looks over at Thea again smiling and then gets up to hand her the forms for her project.

Thea: She looks up from her brewing solution and takes it, looking the paper over and nodding. "Thank you." She then looked at Zach. "I didn't catch your name."

Zach: "I am Zach" he says with a smile

Alyce: She turns to her brother who was by now holding her "Well it appears she found a mentor" she says with a smile.

Thea: She paused and looked at Alyce. "Mentor?" And looked back at Zach hopefully. "Really?"

Zach: He smiles reassuringly "Sure" he says with a smile as he puts a hand on her shoulder not sure whether she is comfortable.

Thea: She stared at his hand for a moment before shrugging it off uncomfortably. "Thank you." She says however.

Zach: He smiles thinking they might she might get more comfortable later on and starts showing her the optimal way to infuse it into the test piece of armor.

Alyce: She shakes her head slightly and goes back to her research.

Thea: She listens diligently and nods, watching how he does it. "How long have you been at camp?"

Zach: "I have been here for two years Alyce has been here for one" he replies as he works

Thea: "Ah." She scratches her cheek like she usually does when she's figuring out what to say. "So... Why did you want to be my mentor?"

Zach: "Well you are my sister and you have a lot up here" he taps her head "more than some of your brothers" he whispers with a chuckle

Thea: She drew back somewhat, but chuckled. "Yes, I suppose I do have a lot up there. A lot of poppycock and crazy." She whispered back.

Zach: He says in her brain "That's what makes us special"

Thea: She flinched and held her head with both hands. "Don't do that!" She exclaims softly, but then says, "However... You are right."

Zach: "Sorry" he says with a sad face as the armor starts to glow "Its ready now you have to present it to the cabin and have it tested."

Thea: "Well, you should, I think." She tilted her head at the armor. "You did most of the work."

Zach: He smiles "but it was your idea I only assisted you with the technical portions" he says

Thea: She stares at the armor again and frowns. "No, it's not ready yet. It shouldn't be glowing like this."

Zach: "I applied some standard enchantments don't worry" he says

Thea: "Are you sure it's ready?" She seems concerned.

Zach: He puts it on himself and nothing bad happens "See nothing to worry about"

Thea: She narrows her eyes suspiciously, as if expecting it to explode, before tilting her head and again and confirming its safety. "Alright then."

Zach: He takes it off "Prepare your presentation" he says with a smile

Thea: "I will." She nods.

Zach: "Oh I have something for you" he gets up and gets a wrapped up computer that has all the things an Athena kid wants or needs designed by the cabin themselves based on Daedalus's tech acquired long ago "For you from your siblings" he says with a smile.

Thea: She is left speechless. "...Really?" Her hand hesitantly takes it from him, never receiving anything near as valuable before.

Zach: "Yes" he says "go on turn it on"

Alyce: She smiles "We will upgrade it as new ones come out" she says

Thea: She carefully unwraps it, opened it and switched it on.

Zach: He watches it boot up and ask for authentication "Just put your fingerprint in the little gel pad and let the camera scan your eye."

Thea: She does that, though cautiously.

Zach: The computer recognizes her and opens up

Thea: She looks at him excitedly, or, at least with her own kind of excitement, and proceeded to peek at the screen as the laptop opened.

Zach: He started introducing her to the laptops functions including its ability to morph into a tablet

Thea: She listened closely; very curious with it.

Zach: When he gets done he looks at her "So that's about it this function allows you to call one of your siblings at anytime"

Thea: "So useful..." She mumbled and sat placing the laptop on her lap.

Zach: "Something wrong" he senses her displeasure about the feature.

Thea: She shook her head. "No, nothing is wrong." Her finger traced the laptop's design carefully. "Everything is just fine."

Zach: "You will get used to us we are your family I also kind of distanced myself at first" he says kindly

Thea: She looked at him in silence, as if trying to figure out what to say before looking back down to her laptop. She shut it down. "Thank you."

Zach: He smiles ans whispers "if you need advice just tell me" he says with a smile "you will grow to trust us"

OOC: did you finish your new char?

Thea: She nodded, not really looking at him. "Thank you." She says again. "But I'd really just like to rest now."

OOC: Yes I have. Quite a while ago in fact. I've even responded to your comment; Colette "Cole" Meyers

Zach: He opens the door and leads her to her room.

OOC: I replied how about we move that here

OOC: How so?

OOC: Make a new section for that rp

OOC: Okay, let's just continue their comment rp here.

Zach and Cole
Cole: "Wow! You turn into an owl!" She beamed and looked at him as he perched on her shoulder. "You're really cute like that." She laughed and stood up. "Since you're watching, I'll show you some real music!" Cole walked over to a tree behind her and pulled a guitar from a guitar case.

Zach: He hoots in excitement and nuzzles her face gently

Cole: She giggled a bit as she leaned back on the tree, bending her leg upwards to support the guitar. She began strumming a casual tune; Honey and the Bee by Owl City, and then something more complex; Tears in Heaven by Eric Clapton. Cole was lost in her music, smiling brightly as she closed her eyes.

Zach: He moves to the beat and then nuzzles her face again in appreciation and awe.

Cole: She laughed softly, watching Owl Zach move to the beat of her guitar, and leaned into him when he nuzzled her face again. She switched back to playing Honey and the Bee and started singing, "Don't remind me. That some days I'm a windshield... And other days, I'm just a lucky bug."

Zach: He flies off of her shoulder to the ground next to her and turns back into his human florm lieing down next to her humming to the tune thinking My goodness she is a very talented singer as he swings his legs upward enjoying the beat looking into her eyes with a smile.

Cole: She hummed the rest of the song and smiled at Zach once he lied down next to her. She kept playing her guitar for a few more minutes until she finished, and sat down by his side. "So what'd you think??"

Zach: He was thinking that it was absolutely the most amazing thing he ever heard then says in her mind "That....was....the most beautiful performance I have ever had the pleasure of listening to" his eyes wide open in awe.

Cole: Like an innocent little kid, she jumped in surprise at him talking in her head. Gasping softly, she stared at him. "W- was that you? In my head?" She put the guitar away and moved to sit on her legs. "You can do so many awesome things!" She touched her temple. "All I did was play music. But oh, I love to play music." She bit her lip dreamily as she leaned back on the tree, smiling at him. "It's my passion."

Zach: "Yes it was me and music is such a nice talent" he says as he takes out a paper and starts absent mindedly drawing her hearts going on the paper but he doesn't notice as he is focusing on the work the mid day breeze making his hair fly around.

Cole: She watched him curiously, scooting closer to him. "What's that you're drawing?"

Zach: He looks at her concentrating but attempts to keep the drawing out of her line of sight "Take a guess" he says playfully as he continues to put the finishing touches drawing in the details of the clear blue sky and the sun shining in the background.

Cole:' Still, she tried her best to peek. "Ummmm you're drawing... Some building designs?" She shrugged, smiling innocently.

Zach: He finishes it and turns it around to show her a potrait of her that enlightens all her good qualities on a backdrop of a sunset with hearts on the border that he subconcously put there due to his feelings but had not noticed.

Cole: "Wow!!" The Apollo child exclaimed excitedly as she rose from her sitting position and onto her knees. "Is that me??" Her hazel green eyes observed the sketch excitedly as a wide grin graced her face. "That's so cool! You're too talented, dude!" Cole had noticed the hearts, but figured it was just for decoration, even though she found it a but too feminine for her. "Oh, I don't even know your name yet. I'm Cole."

Zach: "I am Zach" he says making himself comfortable in her brain slightly able to feel her emotions a little bit disappointed that they seem to not have moved a centimeter off center "Yes that is you" he says "in all your wonder and glory" he adds lieing down next to her

Cole: She laughed a bit. "Wonder and glory? I don't think I have any wonders or glories yet." She sat back down and crossed her legs. "But that's really sweet. Do you like drawing?"

Zach: "You do too I can tell" he says with a smile "and yes I love drawing" he says as he starts to hear a waterfall nearby in the forest. "Ooh I hear a waterfall lets go and sit there?" he asks smiling at her sweetly constantly guaging her mood without her knowing due to minor telepathy

OOC: Wow this is going to be harder than I expected.

Cole: "Sure? Why not." Her smile slowly grew into a wide grin. "I have a better idea! Let's jump off it! Come on!" With a laugh, she grabbed his hand and started pulling him towards the roar of the waterfall. Her heart was beating fast, but that was probably due to adrenaline. "It's gonna be soooo great!" She squeezed his hand in excitement.

OOC: Yup. I just realized that Cole would be way harder to win over than Thea or Shane. Since she's so oblivious.

Zach: His eyes grow wide in utter shock "Cole that waterfall is more than 50 feet high are you sure you want to do that?" he says as they approach the cliff housing the massive waterfall thinking This isn't going to end well for someone I can tell

Cole: "50 feet?!" She stared down at the white waters of the waterfall and pondered something. "Hmm... You're probably right..." But then she turned back around and with her hands on her hips, exclaimed, "Something that high deserves to be treaded with a rubber raft!" Her grin was white and bright, but then she rubbed the back of her neck as usual. "But then I guess jumping would have to wait..."

Zach: As she stared at the waterfall, he was quietly slipping into the water and as she turned around to where he was standing, he attempted to pull her into the water with him saying "Rubber rafting sounds like a nice idea but where would we get the raft?" he says with a smile

Cole: Before she knew it, she was pulled into the water and sputtered comically. Brushing the bangs out of her face, she splashed water at him playfully. "Heyyyy that was uncalled for!" However, she began to think again at his next question. "Well... You could design one! And ask the Hephaestus cabin to build it!"

Zach: He raises an eyebrow and smiles "hopefully they would have the resources and time to do so" he replies and he smiles playfully as he goes underwater grabs her legs and lifts her out of it "I am just playing with you" he says happily still holding her up

Cole: "Whoah!!" She gasped as he lifted her up. "Well okay, just be careful there." Her cheeks were slightly red because she's wearing shorts and he's holding onto her bare legs and thighs.

Zach: He realizes that she is embarrased and probably slightly uncomfortable so he quickly sets her down "Sorry didn't mean to make you uncomfortable" he says in a small voice blushing slightly as he looked down a little fish swimming past.

Cole: Well he's certainly not like that other guy... She smiled softly and nudged him. "Don't be embarrassed. It was cool. Maybe ask first next time." She said again and floated on her back.

Zach: He smiles and looks at her "Well mind if I carry you bridal style and douse us in the waterfall?" he says with a smile ready to swiftly pick her up breathing a sigh of relief in his mind.

Cole: "Hm? Sure, sounds fun." In truth, she didn't really think it was a good idea, since the waterfall was probably pretty rough with it being 50 feet tall. But hey, it might be fun too.

Zach: He felt she had a little fear so he scooped her up bridal style and put them under the less intense portion of the waterfall looking at her with water dripping down his face smiling "So how do you like getting doused by a waterfall?" he asks

Cole: She once again gasped when he scooped her up, and immediately clung to his neck. Biting her lip nervously, she took a deep breath as they went under the waterfall. Eyes closed, bracing herself, the imagined violent pounding never came. Instead, it was gentle and pleasant. Like Zach's touch. A soft laugh escaped her lips, as she removed her hands from his neck to catch the water that fell on them. "It's amazing..." She admitted, looking at him and blushed faintly. He looked amazing like that. However, shaking her head, she began to sing happily, "When I lost it, yeah you held my hand, but I tossed it, didn't understand, you were waiting... As I dove into the waterfall." Her voice chimed like the delicate strokes of a violin and echoed about the waterfall walls. She paused for a moment, allowing the lyrics to seep in, and continued. "So say Geronimo! Say Geronimo!"

Zach: He continues the song in her head adopting a singing voice as he sung it to her with a smile as he held her under the waterfall also blushing lightly thinking Wow this sure feels nice wondering how she felt.

Cole: She sang a few more lines before deciding to be quiet. Cole smiled at Zach sweetly. "So I'm assuming you've come Jere before?"

Zach: "I have but I have never had anyone to share the time with" he replies thinking Perhaps she will spend more time with me He then pulls them away from the falls and places her on the water humming a tune in her brain swimming around her.

Cole: Allowed back down to her feet, she began to sink into the water and sit. She thought about many things for a moment, but Zach's humming in her head kept her from focusing on anything. "Is telepathy a thing with you?" She asks casually.

Zach: "Yes it is how I communicate to those I feel close to" he says in her brain in a small squeaky voice not thinking of what he said but then realizing and keeping his mouth shut treading at the surface of the water blushing a bright shade of red.

Cole: She raised an eyebrow. "But we just met." A slight laugh escaped her, but she shook her head. "It's sweet, but, I don't really like rushing, y'know?"

OOC: Well seems like this rp is going to last for a couple of months.

Zach: He silently withdraws from her brain and treads the water awaiting her resurface thinking Well I wonder what she likes to do with her spare time besides sing He grabs the pen and paper on the shore and starts drawing a picture of the waterfall.

Cole: She watched him swim away in silence, and turned around to go under the waterfall again. It felt nice and it made her happy. Just one more thing on her long list of things that she liked.

OOC: Well that's good then.

Zach: As she makes her way to the waterfall he begins to draw her into the image again exhibiting her qualities and making the lighting and shading such a way that she becomes the center of the picture. By now he is sitting on the shore looking up and back to the paper while he draws.

Cole: She is oblivious to this, as she continued to play in the water.

Zach: He continues to add the shading and effects of the water and her into the picture as she continues to play he smiles as he continues to work and when he finishes he puts it back on the shore and swims up to her "What are you doing?"

OOC: That was sarcastically saying it doesn't seem like she is the type that will actually ever get in one

Cole: "Hm? I don't know." She shrugged her petite shoulders and smiled at him. "What were you doing?"

OOC: So you're just giving up?

OOC: I am attempting to see this realistically a relationship rp only works if both people feel like it will otherwise one person will make there char oblivious forever

Zach: "I was drawing a picture of you and the waterfall and the sunset in the background" he says proudly wondering what she thought thinking Perhaps she would like it if I did more guy like things like not drawing pictures as he awaited her response

Cole: Surprise, surprise, her cheeks actually turned red. However, she gave a small laugh. "You're too sweet, you know that?" And she splashed him with water. "Still. It's really cute."

Zach: He smiles and splashes her back "You like that I draw? I mean I do other things like train and go on expeditions into the forest or sail some of the ships in the harbor" he says as he continues rambling on not know what to say as he looks down at the water

Cole: She laughed again and shook her head. "I LOVE that you draw. It's so different. Not a lot of guys draw." She smiled at him and bumped her hips with his.
