Calling all Demigods! discussion

Through the forest runs a sweet little creek. Silver fish dart in and out of the fast-running water, and it's not very deep but always frigidly cold. RP Here.

Jace strolled up to the creek, his hands stuffed I'n his pockets an his eyes following the silver fish.

Serapis sat perched on a rock by the creek. His lean body was bent over a sheet of paper and he was scribbling furiously, his earnest amber eyes narrowed in concentration.

Jace sat down at the edge, acknowledging Serapis with a small smile.

Performing the customary double take on the newcomer, Serapis' eyes widened slightly as he beheld the sharp features of the boy from the Eros cabin.
Smiling hurriedly, he returned to his paper, though his features held a definite blush to them now.

Jace grinned. "Whatcha writing?" he murmured, tilting his head to the side as he glanced over Serapis' shoulder.

"A poem," Serapis stuttered, snatching away the paper as if by instinct. As he did so, his ink pen fell to the ground, and he bent over to pick it up, gazing at the other boy. "You'd be polite if you asked to read it," he remarked with a dry smile, scribbling down the last line.

"So-Ree," Jace said with a smirk. "May I pretty please read the poem?" he asked with a small pout.

"Oh, if you must," Serapis said with that adorable grin of his, handing the boy the poem. "It's not very good. Yet."


The hall of empty voices chorused
That the tangled web of lies had surfaced
The murmurs of the spring were stemmed
Hush! We must not try to make amends.
The deed’s been done, the song’s been sung
The sun shone red, the bird’s flight is dead.
Hush! We must now sleep upon this bed.
The cold was burned, and winter’s rose
Now crimson stain upon the snow
Have all been silenced—yet still you stand!
Hush! The wind still breathes upon the sand.

((Mine. :3))

((O.o Wow. Fudge a fudgebar. AMAZING.))
Jace raised his eybrows as he read. He looked up and met Serapis' gaze, eyes wide. "Wow," he breathed.

((I DIDN'T SEE THE (new) !!!!!))

I'll say, 'wow', Serapis thought, though he smiled softly at Jace, amber eyes eagerly anticipating his respons. "You like it?" he asked brightly.

((!!!!!!!! Hehe s'okie.))
((cough Jason? I think that's your character.))
Jace grinned right back. "Mhm," he said with a lilting tone.

((-.- stupid whim.))

"Great," Serapis said, completely at a loss for words as he stared right into Jace's dark, dark eyes.
Snap /out/ of it!
"What's your name?"

((don't blame ya, they're close.))
"Jace. And you?"

"Serapis," the boy muttered, flopping his dark hair from his eyes. "Serapis Harding of the Muse cabin."

"Mmm. Explains the poetry."

"I could very well be from... from the Ares cabin, just with an aptitude for poetics," Serapis countered, raising an eyebrow with just the merest hint of flirtation.

Jace chuckled. "I highly doubt you could be that much of a block-head and still write poetry like that."

"Okay. The Athena cabin," Serapis said, closing his eyes and smiling smugly.

He scrunched his face up as he tried to think of a way to counter. "Mmm... You'd be better off saying Apollo. Much harder to disagree with."

"I'm just not used to anyone disagreeing with me," Serapis said, mockingly shaking his head in disbelief.

Jace stuck his tongue out. "Well, get used to it."

"My, my," Serapis said, placing a hand on his throat in mock-surprise. "Such insolence!"

He scoffed. "Yeah, like it's so rare at this camp."

"True say," Serapis acknowledged, kicking a pebble into the stream.

Jace grinned and leaned back on his elbows, glancing up at the sky.

((errrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr.))

"What do you like to do for fun?" Serapis asked curiously, glancing at the incredibly handsome boy seated next to him.

((ya,that's hen IVI and I wait for our minds to strike up.
Fudge *thinks rapidly£ Fun.... Hmm...))
Jace seemed to have to think about it for a few moments. "Mmm... Depends jn what you count as 'fun'."

"Actually, it depends on what you count as fun," Serapis corrected, grinning. "Hobbies, interests..."

He shrugged. "Nothing extremely out of the ordinary."

(((errrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr))

((Skinny dipping XD))

((xDDDDDDD))

((^-^))

☜(⌒▽⌒)☞

((BIRRRRRDY!))
Jace smiled and stood, offering his hand to help Serapis up without a second thought. "How much do you hate the water?"

((Uuuh, I don't really like it. *backs away from stream cautiously*))

Drake strolled down to the creek, smug as always. His hands were shoved into his pockets, black eyes darting from place to place

Jace glanced up and quickly pulled his hand away with an apologetic smile to Serapis. They weren't alone anymore.

Drake's eyebrows rose, the curl of his sneer becoming more prominent. "Well, well, well. What have we here?0

"Why does it matter to you?"

"It's just a question, now isn't it," Drake replied innocently.

"Not I'n the sense that you said it," Jace scoffed.

"And your point?"

"I'm asking why it matters to you," he said I'n exasperation, at last tuning to face Drake and involuntarily putting his hands on his hips.

"Oh nothing," Drake replied lightly. "I was simply asking a question."

"Mhm," Jace murmured with a roll of his eyes.

"Then again, you never answered my question."

"There isn't any rule that you have to answer to any given quesiton," Serapis said, standing up and regarding Drake with his eyebrow cocked.

((WHIM!))
