Who: Everyone at camp.
What: Apollo's sacred day.
Where: The ampitheater.
When: August 7, 8:30 PM.
Why: Apollo's at camp today, and as the god of music, he's holding a dance.



It was decided at the meeting of the summer gods, the Summer Solstice, but it took Apollo physically coming to the Big House and scolding Mr. D for being lazy and not putting up any fliers to actually get the god of wine to do it, a week in advance.

Apollo prides himself on being the god of just about everything - though Mr. D would say, out of the cocky god's earshot, that he's the god of everything nobody else wanted to be the god of. Because of this, he's always had a self-assured attitude which is sometimes hard to deal with.

Because of this, when he decided he was going to throw a dance for the demigods towards the end of the summer as a reward for accepting children of other pantheons into their Greek camp so well, most of the other gods decided to just let him have it rather than argue. (Considering that Hera and Zeus had gotten into three separate spats since the Solstice began, they'd all had enough godly screaming for one meeting.)

So at about 8:30 on the nose - since he's used to following a tight schedule on the sun chariot and he's excited about this, he'll be on time - a flaming, bright red Maserati drives up to the ampitheater. Apollo doesn't even have to lift a finger for the trunk to open, and speakers as well as state of the art DJ equipment rise up onto a platform. He waves his hand, and club music with a thumping bassline starts playing.

(Never say that Apollo doesn't like to make an entrance.)

Requests will be taken all night by Apollo, who will be manning the dj booth as well as making up freestyle haikus. He's one of the more amicable gods, especially to his kids, which he's hosted more of at Camp Half Blood and Camp Jupiter combined than any other god. He's charming and younger looking than most gods, with a cocky smile and sandy hair.
If you're a pretty girl, he might hit on you.

(Apologies in advance. He'd say old habits die hard because he's right. Sorry, Hunters of Artemis.)

[Naomi has been bouncing since she woke up this morning, and who can blame her? She's never been to a dance before! The Halloween dance at the community center didn't count.

Now that the dance is started she's wearing a light blue dress that she'd found buried at the bottom of her suitcase that Kou told her their Mom had packed when she was talking to him via rainbow. How did Mama know she'd need it? and she's tied a matching baby blue ribbon in her hair, kind of like Snow White's.

It's safe to say that she's running around the ampitheatre, trying to pull people to the dance floor and trying to work up the nerve to request a song from Apollo.

Naomi is going to sleep like the dead tonight.]

[Dany's been off to the sidelines for a little while, nursing a cup of tea, but she can't help but comment on Naomi's dress as the little whirlwind comes past.]

Naomi, you look quite like Alice in Wonderland, do you know that?
serenesuccessor: (Default)

[personal profile] serenesuccessor 2013-08-09 05:42 am (UTC)(link)
I do?

[Her eyes go wide at the compliment, and she looks down at the pale blue dress before at Dany.

Then she giggles, clapping her hands in front of her chest and talking in a very bad British accent.]


Why is a raven like a writing desk?
wokethedragon: (said hey lady will you marry me)

[personal profile] wokethedragon 2013-08-09 05:21 pm (UTC)(link)
[The accent mirrors her own, though Dany's is much softer and natural - despite being colored by her years as an islander as well.]

I've no idea. Why is a raven like a writing desk?
serenesuccessor: (And lightning flash illuminates your)

[personal profile] serenesuccessor 2013-08-11 07:30 pm (UTC)(link)
I have no idea either!

[Another giggle, and Naomi knows that's not the actual line. Maybe she'll steal her brothers copy of the book again when she gets home or make him watch the movie with her.]

[personal profile] wokethedragon 2013-08-12 02:41 pm (UTC)(link)
Is that from the book, or from the film? I'll admit, I haven't read or seen either in quite some time...

[It came with being a full-time camper. The Athena children had a library, but there were only so many books there.]
serenesuccessor: (Land and forests and sand)

[personal profile] serenesuccessor 2013-08-20 05:29 am (UTC)(link)
The books! Though it might be in the movie? 'm not sure.

[She blinks at the admittance, then her face becomes determined.]

That's okay! My big brother is really good at reading it, he's got voices for everyone! I bet if I ask nice he can read it to us over an Iris Message!
wokethedragon: (he said don't look back just keep on wal)

[personal profile] wokethedragon 2013-08-22 04:20 pm (UTC)(link)
[She considers it for a moment, then nods.]

That would be lovely. I've heard there are ways to even watch films over Iris Messages, if one positions the rainbow correctly.

But Naomi...can your brother see through the Mist?
serenesuccessor: (Default)

[personal profile] serenesuccessor 2013-08-27 06:37 pm (UTC)(link)
The Mist is what hides all the monsters and stuff from normal people, right?

[She waits for a confirmation nod before continuing.]

Um, yeah. I think so. I heard [Ease-dropped] him and Tai talking before I left and it sounded like he's been seeing monsters this whole time and steering me away from them when I was nearby.

[Now that she thought about it.]

... He was always really insistent when I was little about checking under my bed and closet for monsters...

[personal profile] wokethedragon 2013-08-28 01:34 am (UTC)(link)
Yes, that's right.

[She nods, then listens to Naomi's story. Perhaps there was something special about her brother as well, as he knew not only of the Mist but of the satyr Tai. If he had potential, though, was yet to be known.]

They do tend to hide under beds. It's easier to trap prey when prey is at its most vulnerable.
