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!

[Be fair, Nico, a large part of that is because you haven't tried. Will it be difficult? Yes. But you built your cabin and pretty much just ran away from camp, so almost no one knows you but Percy and somewhat Annabeth. Give it a chance - stick around. It won't happen right away, but it'll happen.]

Same, but I can't get away from him. I don't know how Annabeth managed to go up there almost every day to rebuilt Olympus and have to deal with the gods day in and day out. She's got some wild stories about how big their temples had to be and how their homes all had to be better than everyone else's.

[And, amazingly, Percy seems to have consumed enough candy for the time being, as he drops his bag next to his feet without pulling any more out.] Yeah - but I'm a stupid mortal, you know. I wanted it to change faster than that.

[He doesn't want to try because he's afraid to. He shakes his head.]

Annabeth is good with diplomacy, normally. It's a lot of politics when you deal with gods like that.

[Whoa, he'd been sure that Percy was going to eat the whole bag.] Patience is a virtue, Percy.

[He needs to get over that, then. Can't succeed if you're not willing to risk failure.]

And we all know I suck at politics. [Okay, he doesn't suck all the time - he can usually be polite when addressing the gods, or at least not so disrespectful that they vaporize him. But it's never his first thought.] And we all know how good I am at patience.

[deathdiduspart]

You have your moments, but yeah, mostly, you suck at both politics and patience.

[He will take whatever punishment Percy throws at him because that is such a well-deserved comment.]

[againstallodds]

[That's gonna get him a punch on the shoulder, though not a very hard punch. He admits it himself, after all - the punch is mostly for form's sake.]

That's why Annabeth deals with all of that and I never do except when I have to. At least I don't make things worse. Most of the time.

[deathdiduspart]

[He rolls his eyes up to the heavens.]

He says he doesn't make things worse most of the time. Gods give me patience.

[againstallodds]

It's true! Things just get worse on their own without any help from me. You've seen it. It's not my fault!

[deathdiduspart]

Uh huh. Whatever helps you sleep at night, Percy.

[Totally doesn't believe him.]
