COMPANY || CHAR/LOGAN

[Jay Sun Keon]

It was safe to say, the food that was supplied here in the Mess Hall was a far stretch different from the regular left-over Chinese food Jay received from his mother’s restaurant. He missed the chicken chow mein and egg fried rice, he missed the sweet and sour sauce but he was stuck with what he was given. They say the food they supply was meant to make you ‘strong’ and ‘rich in nutrients’ but it was definitely not good on the taste buds. Well…food is food and it’s better than nothing was the mind set Jay developed during his time at Camp Half-blood. Maybe he’d learn to love the food?

He scanned around the mess hall and frowned, he couldn’t spot anyone like Tabitha anywhere so far so it looked like he’d be sitting on his own for the time being, unless anyone wanted to join him that was. Sitting on the end of a row, Jay plonked himself down on the bench and slid his tray onto the table. It was quite hard to adjust to this new way of life but it was pretty fun at the end of the day, a lot different to boring English lessons back at school. As he swirled his fork around in his food Jay watched the people lining up to get their own food, wondering if any of them wanted to be Jay’s company but most of them seemed to already have reservations, which sucked.

Logan was no having a good day. First his straighten broke, so instead of his normal straight fringe the curly hair of hades was creeping along his forehead. Then it was training day. Everyone knew Logan was not a fighter, he would rather embrace the warm welcome of death than actually fight something. No one ever understood his weapon either. Then again most people havent ever seen a real Grenadier.  Needless to say that was just such a joy. Logan rubbed his shoulder as he walked into the mess hall. He was done with today, he just wanted some food and to not leave his cabin the rest of the day. He grabbed his food, he huffed over to a table, not really paying attention to who was there.

He had been sent here to learn to fight but all they had him doing was getting his arse kicked. He didn't ask for this at all. He and his mother were find moving around, never in one place for too long kept them safe. Being settled somewhere was, well, unsettling to him. For as long as he lived at camp he was constantly moving around, never in one place for too long. His usual emotionless faced staired down at his plate as he stirred the Piperade he had gotten. He was bias to french food could you blame him?

[Jay Sun Keon]

Continuing to watch the people queueing for their food, Jay watched a rather slender dark haired boy walk over and sit down in front of him. He paused for a moment, the boy seemed to be completely in his own world with his thoughts and Jay wasn’t sure if he’d come across as rude if he said something to him. It didn’t seem like the boy even noticed Jay was sitting right in front of him. So instead he continued to swirl his food around on his fork, occasionally bringing some to his mouth since he was in fact starving.

After a few minutes of sitting there awkward Jay decided he couldn’t take it any longer. ”Hey man…” Jay said putting down his knife and using his hand to brush up his hair, making sure the strands were spiked up. ”Rough day?” He continued on to ask with a small laugh as he could relate to having bad days here. He still only had a few people he knew here and was not completely used to all the training that goes down here.

Logan was on his four spoonful when the guy in front of him said something. Honestly he had been too lost in his own thoughts and care to notice the boys presence let along mannerisms. He looked up at the guy in front of him, he had seen him around, no clue who he was or what cabin he was him, just seen him around every now and then. Thats how Logan knew most people at least. He looked up at the boy with a spoonful of food and looked at him. "Hmm" Elegant as ever Logan.

He quickly swallowed the food and gave the boy a nod. "Yeah you could say it was something of a bad day." The small laugh the guy gave at the end of his sentence made him smile slightly. Logan always had a place for lighthearted people. Smile through the pain he would say. "At least if you ask my shoulder that it'll agree at least."

[Jay Sun Keon]

He received a ‘hmm’ from the boy which made Jay raise his eyebrow. Was this guy that out of it that he couldn’t speak as well? Either way it was amusing so Jay let out a small laugh at the reply. Maybe that ‘hmm’ meant it really was a rough day that had drained his ability to speak completely. There could have even been a Greek god that if you were their child, it meant you couldn’t speak properly, after all Jay didn’t know much about the gods.

The boy quickly spoke afterwards - Jay replied with a nod, the boy had clarified for him that in fact there most likely wasn’t a god that meant you couldn’t speak. Just a dumb thought of Jay’s. ”It seems like it was.” He replied as he decided to take a mouthful of his food, before chewing and swallowing. His smile never left his face as he conversed with the boy. ”Did you have training or something?”

[Deleted]

For Logan, there was nothing more blissful to him than seeing someone smile because of something he did. The laugh the kid in front of him gave towards him made him brighten up even more. Forget the soreness and such, he made someone laugh! What a wonderful day!  Well, other then the pain and suffering. He took another spoonful of his food and listened to the boy and nodded. Training was one way to put it.


"Training?  I refer to it more as play death but training is a way to say it." he mumbled before stirring around his food a little. It was still nice and warm and reminded him a lot of when he was with his mother back when they visited France. That was the same year he got his Grenadier from his mother. It was a great sword, but Logan had no idea how to even use it. "I'm not much of a fighter so its more of a hour of how many bruises can i get in places that I don't want." 

[Jay Sun Keon]

Play death was an interesting way to refer to training but the thing that triggered Jay’s smile was the fact it was actually true when you think about it. They were essentially training you to either avoid or embrace death in a fight. Suddenly training took a sinister turn. ”Interesting way to put it.” Jay wasn’t one for fighting and would usually use his word to either calm down the other person or to completely avoid the physical side of a confrontation but since he was a son of Apollo, he was actually pretty good with his spear. ”Well, I use a spear and it’s slightly like a javelin just shorter. So being a son of Apollo helps with that. Besides, I’m Asian technically so obviously I know Kung Fu.” He said as he raised his hand out slightly as he made the stereotypical joke with a smirk. Jay loved to make that stereotypical reference against himself because it was funny and badass at the same time.

[Deleted]

If there was one thing in this world that Logan appreciated it was humor. Puns, jokes, whatever. Something that made life lighter, so when the kid in front of him started busting stereotype jokes, Logan felt the smirk spread across his face, even if it was still in pain. He shrugged at his comment on his word choice, training made it seem like he actually wanted to be there, and when there was no way in hades he did. He saw it this way, he knew how to handle himself against a monster with his Grenadier that was all he needed. He wasn’t about to go charging into war anyways. He was a court jester, not a knight.

Logan cracked a laugh and agreed jokingly with the boy. “Obviously. I wouldn’t be surprised if there were ninja’s coming for you right now” he jokes around before stirring his food more.” Javelins are cool, it’s like, extreme pin the tail on the donkey.” Logan really needed to learn to think before speaking, or else he ends up ranting, like he was. “They keep telling me I need to be a better swordsman but honestly I see no point in it. We are safe here, I can handle myself when it comes to monsters. When it comes to other kids though that would throw themselves into a brawl for a glory.” He said and shook his head “No thanks I’m gonna Switzerland myself out of there.”

[Jay Sun Keon]

The fact that Logan had continued to crack a smile had reassured Jay in their current conversation. He thrived with people that could actually take a joke without getting butthurt or start crying, especially when nothing he ever says was ever to offend someone. Unless they had done something to annoy him to that point but since Logan was still smiling, their possible friendship could continue without any unnecessary arguments because of something he had said.

”That’s the thing…There is.” Jay said in a whisper as he leant forward to the boy, looking around the room as if he was in hiding but being unable to maintain his serious face before having a little laugh before sitting back in his seat normally. ”True but you never know what’s going to happen. You can’t always run from crazy demigods, there may be a time where you’ll have to fight to survive and training may help that I suppose.” Jay replied as he took the last forkful of his ‘food’ and swallowed it down. He understood where the boy was coming from, but there was logic behind training here at camp – even if it was tiring as hell.

[Deleted]

Ninja's? Demigods, gods, why not ninjas. Logan smirked and laughed along with the kid. He seemed cool enough Logan could determine. His theories on training were probably right but honestly, he had no motivation to do any of it. Swords and bows, all this battle gear that was something that he'd never do. Regardless of it all he did make a actual point. Not that Logan would ever admit it. He knew he was suppose to be a warrior or whatever but no.
He wasn't a fighter, he was barely a defender, he was a run and hide kinda person. 

"Crazy demigods coming after me? I'd let them honestly. They want to fight and they are stronger than me there is no chance im surviving that, so i'd rather just enjoy my time alive and welcome death once it comes for me" he nodded, eating before looking at the boy "I'm logan and no i don't have a death wish I just really hate, well, moving."

[Jay Sun Keon]

Jay could see a potential good friend in the boy in front of him; it slightly reminded him of his meeting with Mel. They both hit it off by joking around and throwing in some bad puns but those bad puns were what broke the ice. In the case with the boy in front of him, the talk about training and being a ninja had done well in breaking the ice.

An eyebrow rose slightly as the boy admitted what he’d do. Would he really just stay there because he was too lazy to defend himself? Jay found it hard to believe that. ”I have a feeling if it came down to it, you’d react to it. Rather than standing there. Everyone has a fight or flight reflex, there isn’t a third option for ‘staying where you are’.” He explained with a shrug, if Jay was in that situation he’d probably fight as much as he could until a potential escape route had cleared out for him. He wasn’t too keen on fighting so he’d do it as long as it was necessary.

[Deleted]

Logan honestly thought that this kid seemed pretty cool. In some sort of manner at least. He joked around and such, and even if he was very set on training he was cool enough. "it's not a third option." he said waving his spoon around at the boy. "the other two options include some sort of acknowledgment of survival.  My option isn't choosing to survive though." he said before returning to his food. "It doesn't really matter though." he said shaking his head. Fighting isn't hims style.

"Regardless of it all anyways, I doubt I'd ever fight should the situation came to it so I guess run. Not that I'm a good runner. So therefore, death." he said shrugging "Or I can just never leave my bed again. That would always work."

[Jay Sun Keon]

Jay’s eyebrow rose a tad when the boy was talking about the situation how he was. It confused Jay; he didn’t understand how someone could be so lazy that they wouldn’t even try to survive if it came down to it. ”I guess so.” Jay replied with a shrug, taking a quick look around the room at all the other demigods around and conversing. Although this boy did seem like fun at times, Jay couldn’t help but feel awkward as he was talking about this situation but without wanting to be rude Jay looked back at Logan and took a glance at his arm that he had earlier said hurt and wondered if it was still giving him trouble.

”Isn’t exactly flowers and fluffy bunnies…is it?” Jay cracked with a small grin, putting his hands on his lap since he was finished with his food he didn’t know what else to do with them and they had to be doing something most of the time. ”Not leaving your bed sounds like a good plan to be fair, I’d get in on that…But with my bed bro.” He said, adding on the last bit with a small laugh as he realised how what he said could have been interpreted.

[Deleted]

Flower and Bunnies? "Yeah thats one way to put it" Logan said simply before looking around the cafe. Some of the kids here had been in training with him. Covered in blood stains and sweat. Yeah. His bed was looking better and better. Logan full hearted laughed at the kids comment though and looked back at him "Yeah, no offence dude but I don't climb into bed with people. Especially when I don't even know their name." he chuckled but shook his head "The only down fall to always being in bed is...Yeah no I've got nothing I tried. Maybe food. Lack of the mess's everlasting food supply. There we go one downfall."

[Jay Sun Keon]

Jay gave a subtle nod before leaning back. A couple other people were sitting on the same table as the pair of boys now but they seemed to be too into their group discussion to even acknowledge that Jay was in fact, on the table too. ”I’m Jay, son of Apollo.” He replied with a small laugh, deciding that the boy was probably right in saying they shouldn’t share a bed but either way Jay wanted to know the others’ name. ”Or when you need to pee but don’t want to leave so you just sit until it gets too uncomfortable.” Jay laughed at his own reply, he loved his bed as well but hated having to get up to go to the toilet. It was so annoying because it was always when he was at his comfiest.
