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.)

[Congrats, Charlie, you are definitely the Other Finn to her Marceline.

Punch.]
Errrr... [She glances at the refreshment table. Yep. Mr. D is there. And she's got a flask in a thigh holster.

Well, she's not afraid of him. And she's got Charlie to impress.]
Sure thing. Lead the way.

[Charlie doesn't seem put out at the prospect of running into Mr. D at all. Of course, he's not holding alcohol so he doesn't have that to worry about, so...

TO THE REFRESHMENTS!

Yeah, it's surprising he hasn't had an energy crash yet.]
Let's go! It'll be like an adventure. Er. A really short one.
ospreyed: (come gimme some of that yum)

[personal profile] ospreyed 2013-08-10 03:52 am (UTC)(link)
I think our last adventure was more adventuresome. Let's go. [She would follow his lead, but the path takes them through the dancing, and she tends to get people to make berth a lot more than Charlie does.]
moointhedark: (okie dokie loki)

[personal profile] moointhedark 2013-08-10 04:45 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah, that one was pretty cool. [He sighs wistfully, carefully pushing himself through the crowd and getting stepped on in the process.

Still, he troops on and to the refreshments, leading the way like a gent.]
ospreyed: (in thought)

should we ask for a Mr. D up in here?

[personal profile] ospreyed 2013-08-10 05:28 am (UTC)(link)
And there will be plenty more where that came from. [She pauses.] Y'know, summer's almost over, and I'll be heading back to Brooklyn...

[She says follows him along, until they make it to the table.]
moointhedark: (happiest in the world right now okay)

oh god yes that would make this so much better

[personal profile] moointhedark 2013-08-10 06:00 am (UTC)(link)
Can I come visit? I don't live too far away from Brooklyn, I think... Jersey's just right there.

[Hey girl, fall doesn't have to mean goodbye.]
ospreyed: (Default)

Dear powers that be,'may we have a Mr. D?

[personal profile] ospreyed 2013-08-10 06:05 am (UTC)(link)
No. [She says it quickly. Too quickly and has to cover.] the apartment is too small and crowded. We have two bedrooms and I crash on the couch mostly, or I'd love you to visit. But maybe I can visit you.

[Jersey. Heh.] Shouldda known. What part? I lived there till I was 7. Parents owned a bar and inn.
moointhedark: (OMG GIRL)

YO MISTER D. And I'll wait after this tag ahaha.

[personal profile] moointhedark 2013-08-10 07:28 am (UTC)(link)
[It's okay because the part about her coming to visit him is enough to knock any suspicions away.] OH EHHHMMMMY GOD! [He's learning!]

I live in Griggstown and if you came to visit, that would be SO COOL! We can camp in the backyard and ride bikes in the park and play video games and Dungeons and Dragons... You can even meet Andy!

[Sure enough, Mr. D is still manning the punch bowl and food - he hasn't moved once since the party's started.

He definitely smells the alcohol on Eponine, and he narrows his eyes at her, almost like he's waiting.]

Taking a younger one under your wing...Emily? That's not like you.

[Naturally, if she even tries to do something to the punch with her flask, it'll just turn the entire bowl into Diet Coke.]
ospreyed: (fuck you with a smile)

[personal profile] ospreyed 2013-08-11 03:07 am (UTC)(link)
Eponine, [She corrects him automatically, refusing to take his bait. She gives him her best smile, and puts her arm around Charlie's shoulders.] Charlie here is pretty cool. He's managed to burrow under my wing. Camp best watch out.

[Her smile doesn't meet her eyes, though, as it rarely seems to. And, to be honest, his slip-up with her name hurt more than it should have. Figured if anyone was forgotten by Mr. D, it was going to be her.]
moointhedark: (yeah i'm too cool for this shit)

[personal profile] moointhedark 2013-08-11 06:24 am (UTC)(link)
[If there's any brewing tension, Charlie doesn't feel. The boy is too caught up in his own little world and now he's talking to another god and oh boy oh boy oh boy.] Yeah, it's Eponine, not Emily! It's a lot cooler!

[He knew an Emily once back in kindergarten. She pushed him the sand box and made him cry. There may be some resentment tied to that name.]

Ep showed me around camp a lot and she's gonna make me an Apollo Scout badge!

[Everyone needs to know about Apollo Scouts, he feels, as he pours punch into a couple of cups.]

[personal profile] gettincrunk 2013-08-11 07:11 pm (UTC)(link)
Then I'll be sure to keep my eye on that one, as well.

[Secretly. He knows everybody's name, but it's so much easier to put up the front that he doesn't particularly care.

He reaches into a cooler next to him, handing them both Diet Cokes.]
ospreyed: (judging)

[personal profile] ospreyed 2013-08-11 07:16 pm (UTC)(link)
[Jerk.]

That one is Charlie. [Remember his name 'cause that kid is awesome. To be fair, she isn't excited about the idea that everyone's going to give Charlie a hard time because he's been spending time with her. Of course, it's to be expected. She isn't a good role model by any means. But she cares about the kid. Hopefully she can shield him from the reality of her life and what it means to be her.]

I'll pass on the coke, I'm down for the punch. [She accepts the cup from Charlie.]
moointhedark: (my dog ate it)

[personal profile] moointhedark 2013-08-11 11:51 pm (UTC)(link)
[Okay now that? That has Charlie confused and he actually frowns. There's something not quite right going on -- why would Mr D need to keep an eye on anyone? Ep is nice and he hasn't done anything wrong, at least as far as he knows.

He takes the can of Diet Coke, still holding the punch in his other hand. Double drinks, neat.]


Yeah... Uh, I promise I'll behave..? [Does that help? He seems hopeful.]
