Leon watched her curiously as he spoke. She was paying attention to him, like, severely. She was looking very intently at his face as he spoke. He wondered if he may have had something on there, subconsciously taking his hand and rubbing it over his face. He listened to her speak of how it was better to build then to destroy and he nodded his head. He much preferred building to breaking. It was so much more fun to him.
He listened to her with less intensity looking at her face as she spoke of her own fears and likes. He smiled at her softly before starting his responses. He smiled a bit as she said something about Poseidon, "I'm not a big fan of his myself. Deep water is my main enemy most of the time. I'm fine with is as long as I have some technology below me, like a boat or something. I'm thinking of building a surfboard to try and help me conquer my fear personally." His smile turned sour when she heard about he man who gave her the scars she had. He wanted to ask about them, but he knew how he felt when people talked or asked about his scars. His smile grew back to normal as she talked about cats and her dislike of fighting. He was more of a dog person himself, but he still liked her all the same.
Hearing her likes he couldn't help but smile nostalgically, his mother had loved art. It had become a bit of a hobby for her and him. He had enjoyed watching Bob Ross, this old painter fellow with an amazing afro, paint and do the paintings with him. He still had some of the videos with him. "I love doing painting. My mother and I used to paint together when we weren't down in the shop working. I may actually do some painting later now. I'd personally love to visit Paris myself, and I may even travel there once I get my car upgraded. If you would like to come, maybe, come and speak with me."

Leon's smile turned bitter at her words. He knew they were true and it didn't dull the feeling he had any. "I typically avoid seeking the destruction of things. I'm more of a fixer then a breaker. It's more satisfying then breaking all the things." His smile turned back to normal here and he listened to her questions quietly before thinking on them. While it wasn't normally safe to tell someone his fears, he trusted this beautiful young woman and decided to risk it. "The thing that scares me the most is being abandoned. I've been abandoned twice in my life. The first time was when mom died and all dad did was send me a note and a hammer. The second," He paused for a moment here, clenching his fists a bit. He took some deep breathes and calmed back down before continuing, "The second time, I was abandoned by my squad. They could have reached me and backed me up to help and we would have been fine, but, they left me. That's why I have these scars. Other then that, I don't really want to ever go back overseas, and I'm not fond of deep water."
His face turned upwards in a smile as he began talking about his likes, "Well for starters, I love my car. She's my pride and joy. I'm actually going to ask Chiron later if I can re-purpose one of the bunkers to use as a garage/hanger type area. I also enjoy my rock music, dancing around, fixing up anything and everything, drinking, and playing cards. I also enjoy smoking from time to time but not all that often. Usually alone because I never know who doesn't like smoking." He gave her a gentle smile and made a few gestures while talking about his car. "What about you hun? Likes, fears, and maybe even your dreams."

Leon smiled at her as she talked about her boots. "Well you must have done wonderful for your father to bestow a gift upon you. I'm happy to have helped keep them in working order." He chuckled as she talked about how she had the boots before the knife, and how she would take that complement. "I'm glad you take my complement. It's a fine pair of boots, for a beautiful young woman." He gave her one of his most charming smiles at this. He frowned a little hearing that one of his siblings did this, but he shook it off as it was a spar and these things happen during spars.
He bows a bit to her at her thanks. "It was my pleasure, my lady. If you aren't busy, you can stick around. I just need to finish up a few more things here and then I'm going to take her for a spin really quickly. I need to make sure my adjustments are holding up before I begin the next set of upgrades. Sound good to you?" He asked her this while getting back onto the roller and getting ready to roll back under the car.

Leon noticed she hadn't checked him out like most women did when they saw him. That was a bit shocking to him, before he had a thought, I wonder if she's a lesbian, or maybe just already has a boyfriend. Eh, I don't care all that much. He smiled at her again as she looked out over the lake, "The pleasure is all mine." He gave a little shudder at the thought of surfing and decided to voice his opinion on it, "I'll pass on that, thanks. I'm not good in deep water without some good piece of technology under me. Got a bad fear of most water, not being able to swim very well and all." As he pulled his headphones off, he noticed her staring at them. He listened to her comments and laughed a bit. Of course he agreed with her, he loved live shows. "Well the trouble with that is that most of the musicians I listen to don't tour anymore, or they aren't the original band members. I wish I had been around to hear The King, that would have been something. And if you find a way to safely carry around a record player, please let me know, I will gladly carry it everywhere and listen to all my vinyl albums again. Would you like to listen, I got The King on right now, Devil in Disguise?"

Leon was enjoying his little bit of rest by the lake, just him and his music. He looked up as he saw this beautiful blonde girl in some cut off jeans skipping up to him. He pulled back one of his headphones and smiled as she plopped down beside him. "Well hello to you too." He gave her a once over and found she was an attractive young woman.
He put his hand out for a handshake and said, "I'm Leon, nice ta meet you, Sammy J. I'm just sitting here by the lake relaxing for now. It's a really nice day after all." He smiled at her again and pulled his headphones down to rest around his neck.

Leon smiled at her as she called him strange, before shrugging, "Eh, I've been called worse." As his hand dropped back onto the stretcher Leon laughed a bit before coughing up a bit more blood at what she had said. He knew she had enjoyed the fight, and he was glad to have met her. "Ow, note to self, do not laugh while injured. I'm glad you enjoyed the fight, and I do expect at least a visit or something while I'm in the forges or my cabin." He weakly wagged his finger at her before she turned and went to collect her knives. He caught a quick glance at her bum before shaking his head of that, No, no. Bad. Artemis would smite me down so fast. Focus on the pain, that'll help. He glanced at the Apollo campers and gave a lets go motion with his hand, he needed to rest and recover.

When she pulled away, he missed the feeling of her hands for a moment. He shook his head to clear his thoughts of the feeling. He chuckled a bit as he heard her talk of the gods. In his mind, most of them where pretty much glorified whores. They slept around and had several kids each. Then they abandoned them all to the harsh world, with or without their other parent. No he wasn't happy with the gods for how they treated their children, but he knew they had rules. "Still, it wouldn't hurt to pop in every once in a while. 'Hi son how are you?' 'I'm great dad, thanks for stopping by!' Something like that would be just fine. The only time I ever heard from him was when mom died."
He pulled his hand gently from her shoulder after she looked at it before rotating both of his arms at the shoulders. They were a little stiff from a lack of stretching. He pulled them both up above his head before locking them together and pushing them as far back as he could. He nodded his head to her words, still looking her in the eyes while giving her a show of his muscles rippling as he stretched. "I'll keep my ears and eyes around for them then. I don't particularly like the gods, but they seem to be doing good so far." Dropping his arms back to his sides he shrugged at that. "So, what do you want to know about me now? I don't mind answering questions."

Leon sighed as he dropped to his knees with a grunt. Counting his lucky stars he gave a grunt before pulling the knife out of his chest himself as the Apollo kids made it to him. He wiped the knife off on his pants before handing it back to it's owner. "I believe this is yours. I had a wonderful spar, minus the hole in my chest, I'd love to do this again sometime." He coughed a bit more before spitting out another wad of blood. He willed his hammer back into a wrench and put it in it's proper place on his pants.
He laid back on the stretched the Apollo kids brought him and stopped them from leaving just yet. He stuck his hand out to the young lady beside him, hoping for a hand shake. "Come find me later, it may be pleasant to talk with you when you aren't trying to kill me."

Leon watched her move her hand towards the old bullet wounds on his side before she started to pull away. He gently took her hands in his and guided them to the old wounds on his side. He shivered a bit at her touch, as he could still feel something there some times, but he didn't mind. Dropping his hands away from hers, he smiles a bit, "Yeah, it was nice living with mom while she was here. I still have the car the two of us were building together, all put together now. I'm sorry to hear about your parents, I think whatever keeps our divine one away from us is moronic and needs to be abolished. Why shouldn't we be allowed to see the one who birthed us and should love us?"
He gave her his own small smile in return, before looking deeper into her eyes. "Truly, I hope you are correct. I would enjoy leading a new life, with new friends." He gave her a gentle pat on the shoulder for reassuring him he would be welcomed here.

Leon laughed a bit as he watched her fall off Walter. He snickered a small bit at her words before letting out a noise at his face being licked. "GAH!" Wiping his face of in the water he heard her laughing at him and looked over at her. He blushed a bit, if he had thought that the shirt was clinging to her skin before, then now she may as well have not been wearing one at all. He enjoyed the view before something she said earlier came back to him. Grinning impishly he opened his mouth again, "If I wanted to drown you Frankie, I think I would do something more like, THIS!" He then tackled her, pushing the pair of them together and under the water. Rolling so he was under her, he pushed up with his legs, sending her flying out of the water, only to land with a splash closer to Walter. He stood up and prepared himself for her retaliation. He didn't expect to get away from this one, not without at least a bit of water wrestling. He had a big smile on his face though, as he knew he's enjoy the fun the two of them were having together.

He chuckled as she seemed to answer both of his questions with one word. She seemed to be a mysterious person, but he loved a good mystery. He wasn't really sure which question she had answered, but it didn't really matter. He was glad she hadn't pulled away from him after the kiss, as so far he was enjoying her company.
He watched her rest her head on her knees before hearing her question. He pondered how best to answer her question. He shrugged to himself and decided the truth was best. "Well it all started seven years a go when I turned sixteen. I came home from a day as school to find my mother being crushed under a car in our automotive shop. That was the day I discovered my heritage as a demigod. I used my technomancy powers to move the car off of mom, pulling her out from where it was. She explained everything to me before dying right there in my arms. Over the next few weeks, I fought to get myself emancipated as a minor, allowing me to live on my own and take care of myself. After two years on my own with the shop, I graduated school and joined the Marines, mostly to escape from the place where my mother had died. I mostly forgot about my heritage as a demigod. I served for four tours in Iraq, earning me a spot in a POW camp, where I got these," He gestured to the scars littering his body, before pointing out the three bullet wounds over his kidney, "But these three are why I'm here now." "
After being rescued, we were ambushed and in the chaos, I was hit three times in the kidney to save one of my friends. Under the intense fire, I lost it, and nearly lost my life. I was given a medal for heroism and the Purple Heart for being wounded in combat. Because of the damage, I was honorably discharged. Returning to my home, I found the note my father had left me, along with this wrench I usually have with me. Remembering all that happened on that night, I attended a reunion at my old high school and then drove straight here. I wanted to leave my old life behind and start anew.
He sighed a bit as he leaned back on his hands, looking right into her eyes again. He had told his story, and revealed more about his scars. He shrugged a bit before saying just a final bit, "I know someone out there has had it worse then me, so I don't find much time to complain anymore. I'm just going to keep pushing on through life and let it go where it will."

Feeling a gentle nudge on his hip, he looked down at his shorter companion. He smiled at her as she said that and just continued to follow her in silence. While he was worried, he trusted her right now, and he wasn't going to back down. He looked up, catching something out of the corner of his eye, finding a series of purple ribbons in the branches of the trees. They seemed to be following them to wherever this cave was. Arriving in front of the cave, he looked at her unsure of what to do. He took note of this strange gleam in her eyes before she called out to her "little boy." He felt the ground shake a bit before this giant hellhound shot out of the cave, stopping right in front of Frankie. He muttered softly, "Little boy my ass. That thing is like a small house." He watched her go up on her tiptoes to scratch at the behemoth in front of them. He stared directly into Walter's eyes as he sniffed the air a few times before bounding back into the cave. He then let out a breath he hadn't realized he'd been holding. He chuckled as she laughed about him not getting eaten.
He followed after her inside the cave. He took note of the strange balls of fire that led further into the cave before seeing her shrugging off her jacket again and throwing it and her duffel onto the cot right. "Oh, now that brings up some memories. I used one of those for awhile." He smiled at the cot before hearing what she said and putting his rifle right beside the bunk. Hearing her run off he dashed after here, stopping just in time not to fall off the cliff into he pool below. Sighing he took the path down to the water before hearing a loud splashing. Looking up he notice Walter trying to paddle in the puddle that was entirely too small for him. He couldn't help himself next, he just busted a gut laughing so hard he almost fell into the water. Reaching the bottom he made sure Frankie was looking at him, by calling out to her, "Hey Frankie, watch this." He then did the craziest thing he had done all day. He began a slow strip tease for the daughter of Ares, just to see if he could finally get a strong reaction out of the girl. He slowly slid his shirt over his head, making sure to emphasize his muscles by flexing them. He kicked off the boots and socks quickly before beginning the best part, his pants. He slowly undid his belt before sliding it off and twirling it around once, throwing it onto his discarded shirt. He then slowly slipped out of his jeans, making all the right motions that should get a woman's blood pumping. He then jumped into the water with a splash and surfaced before wading over to the girl. "So, did you like the free show? Most people have to pay good money for that kind of thing." He gave her a wink.

Leon really hoped she was right about Walter. He really didn't feel like getting mauled, by Walter or her if he killed Walter. But if push came to shove, he would do what he needed. He just couldn't be afraid of Walter and he should be fine. That pool in the cave sounded nice too, someplace quiet to relax. As a bonus, she more then likely wasn't going to swim in her fatigues. He knew for sure that he was stripping down to his boxers once it was time to swim. "So far, I'm liking this idea. I'm down to go meet Walter and do a little swimming in a cave. Sounds, romantic, you trying to get into my pants already? We've only just met Frankie." Leon blew a kiss at her hoping that it would make her blush again. He watched as she bent over to grab her duffel bag, admiring the quick glance at her bum. Those pants just don't do her justice. He shook his head as he realized he had fallen behind and quickly caught up, brushing off her teasing. He was a bit afraid, but he believed she wouldn't just lead him somewhere to get him killed. "I'm not going to lie, I'm a bit afraid. I'm not ashamed to admit it. You said this hellhound could eat my car, so he's big. I would have to be crazy not to be a little afraid. But I trust you Frankie." He admitted it freely. He trusted most people who served, the ones that didn't have their heads up their asses anyway.

Leon chuckled a bit at her words. He may have been a bit of a Casanova back in the day. But those girls weren't worth a mention anymore. He wouldn't mind getting out of the heat himself. Maybe a dip in some shallow water. "Do you happen to know of anyplace to swim that isn't super deep. I'm not a big fan of deep water." He did a double take when she mentioned Walter again. "Are you sure you want me to meet him? I don't particularly feel like being mauled by a hellhound today."
He smiled as she thought being a pirate was cool. He knew he liked this girl. He gave her a smile before standing up and brushing himself off. "Alright, come on there. Time to get out of this heat." He offered her his hand to help her up, after he had slipped his shirt back on.

He saw her wince and wondered what it was about. She couldn't like him that much already so she must have known someone who was a POW like him. He thought back to all the other POW's that hadn't made it like he had. He always had some guilt over that, how he survived when they died. A somber expression passes across his face. He shakes it off when he looks over and sees her blushing a bit. He gives a mischievous grin before reaching out to press his hand against her forehead. "You look a little flushed, are you feeling warm still? Perhaps we should move you inside. I don't think anyone's in my cabin right now." The grin on his face is a dead giveaway to his joking nature, but he's really only half joking. He wouldn't mind taking her back to his cabin.
He then heard her response to his whispered words and blushed a little himself, a small smirk on his face as she laughed. "What if I am a pirate? What would you do about it lassie?" He laughed with her for a bit before realizing his hand was still on her face. He decided to slowly pull it away, just in case she didn't like it there.
