Camp Half-Blood

Discussion in 'It's Galley's Turn' started by chaoticArbiter, May 1, 2016.

  1. This was all very embarrassing. Lark stood to the side and blushed. Was Adara her girlfriend? She'd certainly LIKE Adara to be her girlfriend.
    "That does sound really cool." she added.

    Adara nodded. "Cool!" She crossed her arms without thinking, then immediately uncrossed them. What's wrong with me? I should be really happy for Jack. So what's with this...gods, I can't even place the feeling. She frowned to herself. "That sounds cool."

    "It is!" Adara looks sort of uncomfortable, Jack thought for a moment, but then she seemed fine. I'll have to ask her about that later.

    "I told Lark about Steven Universe," Adara told Jack. "We might watch it later! Maybe. If Lark wants to."
     
  5. "I totally like this plan." Lark said. Anything to make the room feel less awkward.

    "You should do that! Watching shows together is really fun."
     
  7. "Awesome. Is this one of those shows where you need an episode guide for watching it in order, or can we just watch it the way it came out?"

    Adara grinned. "Yay!!" Well, that made her feel happy. So what the heck was the problem?
    ....maybe, she decided, some time alone with a book would help. Or just some time to clear her head. Yeah. She was probably just overwhelmed from so much people-ing. That was probably it. "...do you mind if I head back to my cabin? And you can come over a little later to watch the show?" Adara asked Lark. "Oh, and we can watch it the way it came out--no episode guide necessary. But do you mind if I have a little alone time first?" She didn't want to make Lark feel bad, but...she also wasn't sure she was in the mood for Steven Universe right now, not with how strange she was feeling.

    Jack studied Adara's face. "Take care of yourself," they said finally. "I'm here if you need me."

  10. "No prob," she said, "I was planning on heading back to my cabin soon anyways. Lots of plants to take care of, also I want a nap."

    Adara wondered, briefly, just how strange she was acting if Jack had picked up on it, then dismissed the worry. She'd be fine after a little time by herself. "I will, don't worry," she told them. "I think I'm just a little....I dunno, the excitement of the day might've been a little too much, I guess." Which was unusual for her, but then it could happen to anyone, right? She smiled at her friend. "I'll be fine, no worries!" Nodding, she added to Lark, "Sounds good. I will see you later, then!" With that, she made her way out the door, tossing a, "Bye," over her shoulder to Jack and Auden, and then making her way to her cabin, where she settled in on her bed with Trickster's Choice, and started reading where she'd left off earlier. A little reading never went amiss, after all. She'd be right as rain as soon as she was done with a chapter or two. Right?

  12. Lark sighed.
    "I'm gonna head out, I'll see you later? Just run by the Demeter cabin if you wanna talk to me."
    She headed out, back to go take a nap.

    [timeskip to the next morning]

    Adara woke up bright and early--or at least, as bright and early as ever, which meant about ten minutes before breakfast. Nevertheless, she took her time showering and dressing, pulling on a gray and black lace short-sleeved top with a purple tank top underneath, bright blue leggings, a gold skirt, galaxy boots, and her usual gray hoodie. She stretched her wings inside the cabin, flapping them a few times in order to shake out loose feathers, and then trotted outside. She was feeling much better than yesterday, though she had to admit that probably had less to do with the reading and more to do with watching Steven Universe for a bit with Larkspur before both of them had turned in for the night. She began to make her way to breakfast, wondering if any of the others were up yet. Oh well--if Jack wasn't around at breakfast, she'd just go and barge into their cabin like she usually did and wake them up.

    Jack tapped Adara on the shoulder. "Are you feeling better? You looked pretty upset last night."

    Adara jumped, surprised by Jack's appearance, but managed to reign herself in from flapping her wings, which would've resulted in smacking Jack with a wing. Turning, she looked at them. "You almost got a wing in the face, I hope you know that." Shaking her head, she added, "I'm fine!" and grinned at Jack. "I ended up reading for a bit and then Lark and I watched Steven Universe and it was great and I....think she liked it?" Adara shrugged. "Anyway, I'm fine. How are you?" She didn't comment on what had made her upset, mostly because she didn't know.

    "That's good. She seems really nice. Um, I'm good. I'm great! I met Auden and he's so cool, and I'm happy."

    Adara frowned slightly at the twinge of...something that came rushing back just then. What the heck? Shaking it off, she grinned. "That's good! I know you met Auden, though, you dummy, I was there. It is good that he is cool, though. Also, Lark is super nice. She's amazing. She's incredible. She's so pretty and sweet and--and I'm going to be quiet now, before I go on for like five minutes. Anyway! We should probably head to breakfast."

    Jack nodded. "It's okay, I'm sure you're not too excited to hear me babble about Auden. I can put up with some from you about Lark. So, you watched the lesbian space rocks show?"

    Adara grinned. "Nah, man, it's cool to see you happy! And yes, we did. We watched so much of the lesbian space rocks show. It was wonderful. We haven't gotten to the part with Garnet being revealed to be Sapphire and Ruby yet, though, so don't tell Lark about that 'cause I swear to gods if you spoil her I'm going to scream. I need to see her reaction in the moment."

    "Got it. No spoilers. Can I make ironic comments at her that she'll only understand later?"
