WILL SOLACE COME RETRIEVE YOUR EMOTIONAL SUPPORT GOTH I'M NOT HIS BABYSITTER

( helpfully, she adds an illustration that no one asked for: )



( then, because nico seriously needs more friends and it's her duty as former head counselor of the ares cabin to embarrass any and all younger campers: )

↖  BTW THIS IS NICO
HE LOVES LONG WALKS THROUGH THE UNDERWORLD AND BROODING IN GRAVEYARDS
HE'S SPOKEN FOR BUT I'M SURE HE'LL BE THE AFTERLIFE OF YOUR NEXT PARTY
CHALLENGE HIM TO A GAME OF MYTHOMAGIC TODAY!!!

ALSO IF ANYONE OUT THERE HAS SEEN THESE DEMIGODS CONTACT ME ASAP
LOOKS LIKE ZEUS IS SUPER FUCKING PISSED AGAIN AND WE NEED A GAMEPLAN

( more shitty doodles follow, this time vaguely resembling percy and annabeth, although this time she labels them: )



— CLARISSE LA RUE, DRAKON-SLAYER, DAUGHTER OF ARES

( she figures she may as well cover all her bases here since all of this feels like a ren faire on steroids anyway.

Comments

thread-jacking always welcome

[aquaveiled]

Wow, you're quite the artist!

[ This is written with total honesty. ]

I've never heard of Mythomagic before but has your friend played Triple Triad? And where can I get that bass shirt?

[seaweedbrain]

Good question, I also wanna know where to get that bass shirt.

[areou]

Seriously?

( it's supposed to be a joke, percy, you're not supposed to like it!! )

[seaweedbrain]

[ Well, joke's on you Clarisse; the shirt is actually a hit. ]

Seriously. Got any other ideas?

[ c: ]

[areou]

( you asked for it, percy. remember that. )

Yeah, sure, how about

SAVE A HIPPOCAMPUS
RIDE A PERCY

not here

[sophos]

[ HELP HER FACE IS NOW RED. ]

[seaweedbrain]

[ UHHHHH ]

Maybe we can workshop that one.

[areou]

It's not my FIN-est work, I'll admit

( neither is that. that's just bad. )

[aquaveiled]

Oh, you are the person in the drawing!

[ Thank you magical Singularity BS for providing names to handwriting. ]

Are bass your favorite fish?

[seaweedbrain]

Yeah, that's me. Uh, usually not with hearts for eyes though for the record. Hi.

And I like all fish actually, at least if they're cool. Met a real basshole once.

[ 🥁⚡ ]

In the drawing's case, it was more for the pun.

[aquaveiled]

I did assume that was artistic liberty because you really liked fish. Which seems to be the case!

Basshole...

I love it! Do you mind if I use it? Because I'm going to.

[ So she's not really asking, is she? ]

Some people can really be pieces of carp.

[seaweedbrain]

Hey, of course! Jokes are totally meant to be shared.

And I wouldn't consider myself shellfish about it.

[aquaveiled]

Whale that's very kind of you! I can already sea you're a person of taste.

[seaweedbrain]

Can't let anyone pass up on a finny opportunaty!

[areou]

The fruits of 10 years of arts & crafts at camp, I guess

Never heard of Triple Triad
The bass shirt is custom order

[demigoth]

You could make money selling shirts.

[areou]

You know, that's not a bad idea, di Angelo

Private

[demigoth]

I have them sometimes. Who do you think fixed the Cabin 13 shirt?

[areou]

You mean it wasn't Skippy the Skeleton?

[demigoth]

Skippy’s the consigliere. I’m the boss.

[aquaveiled]

10 years?? You're an experienced artist as well, then.

It's a card game of strategy, chaos, and a relentless desire for collectability that I think is going to catch on. Hilda is making her own deck.

Oh, can I place an order then?

[areou]

Yeah, I wouldn't go that far
Arts & crafts were only like 10% of our camp, uh ... curriculum

Sounds a lot like Mythomagic, actually

Wait, you want one? For real?

[aquaveiled]

Oh? What did you go to camp for then?

Then I'd like to give Mythomagic a try. You never know when you'll run into a willing opponent in the wild.

Yes, of course. How much is it?

[areou]

How Not To Get Eaten By Monsters
Technically, it's a summer camp for training demigods, but I lived there year-round

I'll let Nico know, I'm sure he'll be thrilled

( unclear if she's being sarcastic or not. )

Uh, hadn't really thought about it
How much are you willing to offer?

[aquaveiled]

That is a very important skill. Though demigods?

[ Is the implication here that...she's one? That others are? ]

In Solvunn we mostly barter, though I've earned some coin in Nocwich if you'd like. But I have it on good authority that I can bake a mean pie.
