HALLOWEEN PARTY

[halfbloodhillmods]

Who: The entire camp!
What: Mr. D has moved up his festival of Apokries to coincide with Halloween! It's time to party! Where: All around the camp!
When: Thursday, October 31st
Why: Because, why not?

It was decided earlier in the month that to coincide with the holiday of Halloween, and to give campers a bit of fun after all this nonsense, that Mr. D would be holding his festival of Apokries early! As such the entire camp has been decked out in all sorts of spoooooky decorations.

It's as though a carnival has been set up over night, with music and food all around. There are satyrs and nymphs handing out candy at cabins (smarties for Athena, warheads for Ares, ect.) for any people wanting to trick or treat,  and campers running around in costumes. 

The ampitheatre has once again become a designated dancing spot, and Apollo might have returned to DJ, the arena miiiight have been transformed into a bit of a Haunted House (with special thanks to Hecate), and Demeter has set up a corn maze for campers to navigate through! 

It's time to have some fun!

[A wise choice, Nico. She presses her lips together and listens to him for a moment before chewing on her lip.]

There was quite a bit of confusion after the Red Room ordeal. Hazel has not returned to camp in favor of finding more Romans who have not yet found their way here.

[Or so I'm guessing.]

[deathdiduspart]

[He tries not to make stupid mistakes around Reyna. Or do stupid things. Nico can't help the disappointment that shows up on his person, but he quickly covers it up.]

Hopefully, she'll stay safe.

[He frowns a little.]

Honestly, I hadn't been keeping up with what's been going on here. I'd like your opinion on how you think relations are between the two camps.

[toobitter]

She's a good Roman, I'm sure she'll be fine.

[She sighs and shakes her head.]

Shaky at best? The Greeks don't understand us.... And we don't understand them. Individually it depends on who you're talking to. Too many of us do not get along... and communication doesn't work as it should.

It was a mistake forcing us here.

[deathdiduspart]

[He nods. He knows she'll be fine, but he worries anyway. The last time he had a sister go outside of camp without him...well.

Nico frowns in thought.]

Maybe, but I don't know where else you would have been able to go.

[The son of Hades hesitates a moment.]

It's true that you don't understand the Greeks and vice-versa, but...maybe a mediator might help? Someone who understands both, even a little bit.

[toobitter]

Is that an offer?

[She watches him for a long moment.]

We're both very stubborn cultures, Nico. And we both choose to hear what we want to hear when faced with trying relationships.

[deathdiduspart]

[He gives her a grim smile.]

It's not that much different from person to person, or even mortal to god. [Nico shrugs.] I'm the only Greek who actually knows even a little of Roman culture and how things are run in your camp. Besides, it's not like I truly belonged in either camp anyway.

[The son of Hades pauses before adding:]

Either way, the last thing we need is a four-way war starting with Greco-Roman strife. If I can help, then I will.

[toobitter]

When you have strong personalities in both camps and neither knowing how the other culture reacts...

You know as well as I do that nothing good has ever come from us knowing the other has existed.

[But she nods and gives him a thin lipped smile.]

Your help is appreciated... You will always be an honorary Roman to us.

[deathdiduspart]

Yeah. That's why I kept it to myself.

[Nico shifts a little uncomfortably at that, if only because he didn't expect it.]

...Thank you. I'll try my best, but it's probably going to be somewhat slow.

[toobitter]

Regardless, any help is better than no help.

[deathdiduspart]

I'll keep you up to date, then.
