Who's Strong and Brave Here to Save the American Way?

[halfbloodhillmods]

Who: Steve Rogers, Annabeth Chase, an NPC demigod...and a surprise
What: Going to get the demigod Tybalt and Dave heard about in Saratoga Springs.
Where: Northern New York
When: May 14-15th
Why: Because Captain America

For once, this quest doesn't have an official prophecy telling the questors to go. This time, it's mostly a warning.

Where the cat and red-eyed one had gone
To save this child they need brains, then brawn.
Siblings two shall go forth
And one shall come into his worth.

But mind the dangers in the Springs
For there shall be one to pull the strings
Of others that are still unknown
And one who will one day atone.

Cheerful little ditty, isn't it?

They had planned to send Annabeth anyway, but the prophecy mentioned siblings so Chiron (reluctantly) told Steve that he was going to get to go on this quest as Edmund was too new. There's no big to-do over this one, though there's still a chance to tell the two good-bye.

It should be easy but I don't want to have to use force. He rejected the satyr and... honestly, no one pays any mind to teenagers, which stinks. But, he's never met me before. [ Annabeth grins, folding her arms over her chest. ]

Probably like Susan when she's fed up with someone.

[That comes out of his mouth without his brain catching up to rephrase the words. Edmund is immediately mad at himself for it. Why is he thinking about Susan when he's finally away from his three siblings?

He knows it's because he misses them terribly, but he's too proud and hurt to admit that.]

Sorry if that was out of line.

[quester]

[ The instant response makes her raise her eyebrows at him but there's no harm done. She fam be standoffish, especially in a foreign and frustrating situation. ]

I'll take it as a compliment if Susan gets things done.

[brat_king]

[Edmund shrugs a little, looking uncomfortable.]

She does, and she's kind of a no-nonsense person. She's my older sister.

[quester]

[ No-nonsense is essentially her middle name. She might just get along with Susan. ]

Does Susan know where you are? [ She won't press yet, but she does want to remind him to stay in touch - something she hardly did until recently. It's worth it. ]

[brat_king]

[If they don't, Edmund will be shocked.]

Not exactly. We didn't tell my siblings anything about being sent to camp. Just that I was going to be in America for a while. Mother thought it would be best.

[May as well tell her about the rest of his family.]

I have three siblings, including Susan. Peter is my older brother, and Lucy is my younger sister.
