Jenny, now worried that she would collapse from both exhaustion and anxiety, began to stumble towards the Hades cabin. Her day had started out so well. She was going to win capture the flag with her new friend Edgar. While they had technically won, the day ended with both of them beat up and a massive new target on her back.

Edgar walked with her, also on the edge of collapse. He gritted his teeth against the pain, knowing it was only temporary. Be could feel the potion within him, healing him much faster than his body would normally. But it still hurt, a lot. Despite that, seeing Jenny look like she was about to fall to the ground, he offered his arm to her. His Gift shifted into a brace for his legs, strengthening him slightly.

Seeing Edgar’s Gift become a leg brace, Jenny reluctantly leaned on his arm. Her exhaustion had finally won. She hoped that the brace would keep him from falling over. Jenny still felt terrible; Edgar was in awful shape. But she was admittedly in awful shape too. The news of their impending quest and the fact that she was probably the number one thief suspect weighed on her just as much as her injuries.

“Thank you.”

Edgar smiled, it was nice to be able to finally help. He’d just been a drag on people, especially Jenny, all day. He knew this couldn’t make up for any of it, but it was still nice to ease her discomfort, if only a little.

“You’re welcome.”

Jenny smiled back. Even though everything seemed absolutely terrible, it felt like she’d be ok so long as Edgar was there. She was slowly realizing how awful being alone had been, what she had been missing out on. 

They eventually arrived at the Hades cabin, and she carefully shifted so that she was supporting her own weight again. 

“Goodnight.”

She walked to the door, but turned back before opening it.

”And thank you again. For being kind.”

Jenny then went inside and flopped on her bed, falling asleep instantly.

Edgar was happy. Despite everything that had happened, despite the pain, despite the enemies he’d made, he was happy. He had a friend, and that made things better. He could depend on her, it had been so long since he had someone he could depend on.

And she called him kind. It had been a long time since someone had thought that about him, or at least told him they thought it.

“Of course, thank you for the same. It’s…nice to have someone to trust. Goodnight.”

 After she went in to her cabin, he went back to his own. It was filled with his siblings, yet he was still the outsider. He went and lied down, alone. Again. But he wouldn’t always be alone, he had a friend now.

 Eventually, he drifted off to sleep.

Are y’all good if I give Jenny a celestial bronze dagger? I forgot to include it in her character sheet, but it would mean she has two gifts from Hades instead of just one.

Sure

Edgar limped over to the Hades cabin. It was still painful to walk, though nowhere near how bad it had been the day before. His arms and legs were covered in acid burns, and he had two gashes from where Roy had struck earlier. So he hurt, but it was manageable. His Gift steadied him in the form of a walking stick as he went to go check on Jenny.
He paused outside of her cabin, not wanting to wake her if she was sleeping. He knocked softly, hoping she would hear it if she was awake. He wanted to make sure she wasn’t too injured. She had seemed so tired the night before, he wanted to check that she was ok. @Lunamor

roy jumped out of bed extremely tired. he made it to breakfast where he helped himself to a large helping of food.

Jenny opened the door. She now wore multiple hairbands on both of her wrists, determined to ensure that her bun would stay put. Five daggers were hidden in various places on her person, including her favorite celestial bronze one.

She wore a black, long sleeved shirt that was a bit frilly in spots. Her pants were jeans of the exact same shade. She was excited to have an excuse not to wear the orange camp t-shirts. Aside from some faint shadows under her eyes, she seemed to be her usual energetic self.

Her physical wounds, however, were not yet completely gone. The long sleeves concealed the burns on her arms, but the cheek wound was still noticeable. It wasn’t particularly bad, but evidence of the original burn still remained. 

She smiled immediately, happy to see Edgar, but it slipped away as she saw his poor state. His burns and gashes still looked bad, and he needed a walking stick. Jenny forced a smile back onto her face. She didn’t want to make him think too much about his pain; there wasn’t anything she could do to help.

”Good morning Edgar!”

Edgar gave a little sigh of relief as she opened the door. He had known she should be ok, but he had still worried. She seemed to be doing alright, though he could still see some burns that weren’t healed yet. He smiled back at her, wondering why she’d frowned for a little. 

“Good morning, how are you feeling?” he asked, good voice not portraying the pain he felt.

“I’m feeling great! My burns only hurt if I poke them.”

She poked her cheek as a demonstration.

”My cuts are still there, but they’re really easy to ignore. How are you feeling?”

He didn’t sound like he was in pain, although Jenny wasn’t a reliable judge of that.

He winced as she did so.

 “I’m really glad you’re ok! I’m…” he didn’t want to worry her, but he also didn’t want to lie. “I’m up and walking, even if it does hurt some.”

That was about what Jenny had expected him to say. Not great, but at least it wasn’t worse than she had thought. Hopefully their first few days of travel would be uneventful.

”Let me know if you need help with anything, please.”

She looked towards the dining area.

”We should probably go ahead and eat. I’d like to make sure I have enough time to finish preparing everything for the quest.”

She’d fallen asleep annoyingly early.

“I will, thanks” he said honestly. “Yeah, that’d be good, we both need to regain our strength too. He looked back towards his cabin, he was fully packed. “We can make sure to go quickly.”

Jenny nodded, happy with both of Edgar’s answers. She had been worried he’d hurt himself more by refusing help because he didn’t want to be a bother. She skipped over to the pavilion slower than usual for Edgar, halting and wavering when she saw Roy. He was going on a quest with her. Was she supposed to sit with the whole group?

Edgar looked to see what had drawn her attention. He grimaced as he saw Roy. He didn’t want to be by him, but they were going on a quest together. They would have to learn to get along somehow.
“Should we sit with the other demigods going on the quest?”

roy started glaring but shifted to the side of the bench causing there to be room for the outhers.

Jenny sighed.

”I suppose so. We need to start planning for the quest, figure out what we are going to do.”

She was less than thrilled about it, although she did like the other demigods aside from Roy. She reluctantly walked over to his table and sat down.

This could be a good point for anyone who hasn’t posted yet/for a while/wasn’t active during the prophecy convo and wants their character in on the main plot to join in. The characters are meeting during breakfast and plan to leave later that day on the same quest from the first book.

Edgar joined her, sitting as far away from Roy as possible. He ignored the fact that Roy was glaring at him, no need to provoke the boy.

Jenny didn’t trust him in the slightest, so she watched Roy from the corner of her eye. The guy had literally said he would kill them if he could. She tried to eat, but was nervous. The reality of their quest was weighing on her again. It was a lot of pressure and she hardly felt prepared. In an attempt to settle her nerves, she took out her celestial bronze dagger and started fiddling with it.

Edgar dug in to his food. He was going to need his strength both for the quest and to heal from his wounds. Even just eating hurt a little bit. He glanced over at Jenny, she seemed nervous.

“Is something wrong? Or, more wrong than going on this quest?”

 He looked down at her dagger. “That’s a beautiful knife.”
