"Me? Okay?" He laughed nervously, "Yeah, of course." Lies. Liar. Lying. Fuck. He bit his lip and shrugged with a mutter, "I dunno shit about flowers in all honesty," There's a step in the right direction. Honesty. "Besides, flowers are like, pretty and stuff like you."
...Too honest. Definitely too honest. He took a step back, avoiding eye-contact with Cyrus as if his life depended on it. He considered taking back the statement, but it wasn't exactly something that could be forgotten. Normal people don't go around calling random boys pretty. All Tadhg could manage was a small "sorry" that was barely audible, more of a squeak than a word really.

His eyes flickered from the glass to the needle and then to Grey's face. He gulped, gaze returning to his lap. Would the doctor judge him if he chose the needle? The answer was fairly unlikely to be no considering Tadhg could already feel the judgement radiating off of him. The Irish boy had always had a liking for needles. Most kids hated shots, but the short quick pinch followed by the stinging... He liked it.
Blood draws were even more enticing. Of course there was the quick pinch as the needle pierced his pale skin, the tightness of his veins from a rubber tie around his arm. The blood being sprayed as pressure was released. He loved it. He fucking loved it. He looked back up at Greyson, trying to keep his voice steady though the thought of blood was making him light headed.
"Needle, please." he murmured with a tinge of roughness. The boy's heart was racing, making him slightly paranoid that he would be able to hear it. He slowly extended his arm with anticipation, breathing shallow. He wanted it more than he was willing to admit.

Tadhg had no idea what the hell Cyrus was talking about. He could sort of make sense of it, but the boy struggled enough with simple subjects as it was. He wasn't exactly the most intelligent kid out there. He had trouble concentrating in class especially with all the bullying that happened back home. The one difference between school and Cyrus is that he actually enjoyed listening to the flower boy talk. Besides, he never really gave a shit what his teacher's thought. He wanted to please Cyrus though, wanted to make him like him.
He stared at his flower boy with a rather confused look on his face and nodded slowly, not wanting to seem stupid. Who would like a boy who's not only an emotional wreck but stupid as well? He would avoid looking like both of those things for as long as possible. Unfortunately, he wasn't very good at that. Being the son of chaos his impulse control was basically non-existent. Blurting out stupid things was fairly common as well as the tears that follow. The only thing that separated him from a sociopath was the immediate regret that followed his impulsive acts.

She was laughing. He swallowed the lump that had been building in his throat. She was laughing at him. That was something he knew far too well, being the brunt of everyone's jokes. His chest hurt as he took a sharp breath. He wanted to scream or sob or maybe both. He sure as hell wouldn't be crying in front of Rileigh. He always waited for her to leave, for everyone to leave. The crying had been happening more often. What do normal people do when they get that sad?
So he went with the first option and decided to scream. "Screw off! I'm not fucking gay!" Totally effective arguing skills. Not. Unfortunately it seemed the son of chaos was doing just that, chaos. "And I'm not bloody cute!" he wanted to leap out of bed and fight her. Probably not the best idea considering he was lacking clothes, so he decided against it Instead he clenched his fists, digging his nails into the palm of his hand until the skin broke, drawing blood.

Gods did he hate her. He had the overwhelming urge to chuck something at her but there wasn't anything throwable in grabbing distance. The boy wasn't good with words and never had been, usually resorting to physical violence as his insults were weak. He was physically weak as well though and doubted he would win if a fight broke out between the two of them.
"He's not-!" he began to protest before cutting himself off. "She," he corrected himself, hoping Ri wouldn't notice. Of course she would and no doubt tease him mercilessly for it. If only the boy would think before he spoke. Foresight wasn't exactly an attribute of his and he often acted on impulse, usually causing more harm than not. "She's not small," he muttered. Of course that only made his mind wander to the thought of Cy's package, face heating up at the thought. He scolded himself, doubting that his sister would go easy on this one.

He continued to glare at her even if she wasn't facing him, hoping she could feel his eyes burning holes in her. The boy mocked her sigh with an even louder one, crossing his arms. His sister always seemed to know what to say to set him off though and his teenage angst was once again shattered as he scrambled to protest. So maybe it was a boy that he was thinking about. But that didn't mean anything right? His dad would kill him. He almost had when Tadhg tried to talk to him about a boy he was crushing on. The young boy still had the scars to prove it, the word fag burned into his arm with a cigarette butt. He doubted that they would ever fade.
"The biggest fucking tits you've ever seen," he shot back rather unconvincingly. He didn't even know if he liked girls in the least, let alone boobs. They were just sort of... there. They did nothing for him. Just thinking about a boy made his heart speed up though. He'd lie his way through this thing, pulling some fantasy girl out of thin air.

"Sweet! It's a date," he said happily, though his excitement didn't last long. His eyes widened as his face turned several shades of pink before settling on tomato red. "I mean, like a man date, n-no homo or anything." he stuttered awkwardly. Cue the internal face-palm. Nailed it, Tadhg. He wasn't gay or anything. Totally not crushing on the boy. Nope. At least, not that he'd admit.
"Sorry," he mumbled, biting his bottom lip as he stared at the table. No way was he going to look back up at Alaric. In fact he should probably just leave with what little dignity he still had. No doubt he would only embarrass himself further if he stayed. And yet the young boy couldn't seem to pull himself away. It was like watching a car crash, but instead of a car it was a confused pubescent boy.

Masochist. The word echoed in his mind. Was he a masochist? Oh gods... He did like fire a bit more than others. In fact his obsession with flames could be in an almost sexual manner, though he never lingered on the thought for long. He was strange enough without having disturbing kinks. So he shoved down the masochist comment, ignoring any feelings it brought up. "Just stupid," he mumbled. He didn't even bother to answer the other question. Tadhg tried not to think about all the people he had hurt. Murdered. He couldn't handle those thoughts, those memories.
He followed the boy's instruction and took a seat, restless as usual. His leg bounced with anxiety as it usually did, something he rarely noticed he was doing until someone scolded him for it. His eyes followed Grey's movements with a mixture of curiosity and nerves, embarrassed with himself and yet intrigued. Ambrosia always amazed him. He wished he had had access to such healing in the mortal world. Perhaps he wouldn't have so many scars then.

Tadhg would be lying if he said Grey didn't intimidate him at least a little. To be fair the boy was fairly easy to intimidate, but the professional calculation of the boy gave him a slight shiver. His immediate instinct was to back away as he was approached, but he managed to remain grounded. If he left now no doubt the burn would become infected or leave a nasty scar. It wasn't a superficial burn either, far from the redness one can just run under cold water. A large patch of his arm was burnt to a shiny white, leaving an odd crater in his skin. The worst part was it seemed he had burned the nerves, the plastic looking skin completely numb.
How does one say they were quite literally playing with fire without sounding like an idiot? It's not exactly easy to go to a doctor with injuries caused by oneself. If it's a wound caused by battle it's no big deal, but those caused by one's own stupidity is always embarrassing. "I was melting plastic and some of it fell onto my arm..." he mumbled with a slight blush, extending his arm before the boy.

He glowered at her, expression darkening like the sky when a storm approaches. The gods know children of Eris are nothing but storms just waiting to happen. "I'm not twelve." he hissed, "I'm fourteen, Rileigh. You didn't even know me when I was twelve. I wasn't even in America when I was twelve." He was tired of his stupid sister calling him a damn child. He was practically an adult in his mind. Technically he was more or less a mass murderer. Not many twelve-year-olds can claim that title.
"I don't have-" he stuttered, stumbling over his words as anger turned to embarrassment. "I'm not gay, okay?!" That was most definitely debatable, not that he wanted to be discussing his confusing sexuality with his jerk of an older sister. "At least I don't go through people's underwear, creep!" he yelled, an unpleasant mixture of pissed off and ashamed.

He groaned, flipping her off. "Oh shuddup, Ri." he muttered, though the boy was still bright red. "You could at least knock rather than just barging in!" He knew he was at fault in this situation, but hell if he'd admit it. The kid had been caught up in the moment and not exactly thinking straight- far from straight in fact. Not that now was the time to question his sexuality, though it was quite obviously blossoming to Rileigh's distress. "I'm a teenager now, okay? I gotta like... do teenager stuff." Yeah, good one Tadhg. Next time he would most definitely have a sock on his door, though he hoped next time it wouldn't be just himself and his hand. Fortunately for his sister however, the boy was rather unlikely to seduce someone with his awkward and often embarrassing social skills. |

Tadhg had no idea what the boy was talking about but it sounded smart. He was trying really hard to keep up and certainly wasn't unintelligent, but he didn't know what a lot of the words meant but nodded along, not wanting to seem dumb.
"We're practically swimming in strawberries," he agreed, scanning the field they were in. The strawberries seemed infinite... He wondered how the camp managed to grow so many. No doubt Demeter's magic played a part. He had also heard that the satyrs could promote plant growth with the pretty music he'd heard coming from the forest.
He glanced back at Cyrus' face, eyes quickly flitting back to the ground. "Do you have time now?" he asked hopefully, hoping he didn't sound desperate. He didn't want to annoy the boy. For all he knew he was already being annoying...

Alaric seemed to share his enthusiasm, exciting the boy further. He had finally found someone he could relate to. Perhaps not on a personal level, but a friendship built on comic books wasn't really a bad thing. This could be the start of something great if he doesn't screw it up.
"All comics, really." he said, returning Alaric's goofy grin. "Dude, I love the Avengers! I had all the comics but the movie was good too," he exclaimed, practically jumping out of his seat with excitement. "I mean personally I liked the comics more but-" he continued, stopping mid-sentence as he realized he was rambling. "Sorry," he mumbled, blushing slightly. "I just got really excited,"
"But yeah, I'd love to see what you're building," he finished. His mind was racing with possibilities of what the Hephaestus boy could be building. Maybe Captain America's shield or the Antman's suit or Iron Man's suit or Thor's hammer or one of Stark's sentinel... Gods the list went on and the young boy was practically bursting with excitement.

He nodded quickly, flashing a weak smile. "Yeah, I'm fine," he mumbled unconvincingly. He really hoped he hadn't screwed things up. He hoped a happy facade would be enough for Alaric to brush it off, not really wanting to explain that he had accidentally burned 9 people alive. Okay, so one of the 9 was on purpose. The other 8 had just been in the wrong place at the wrong time.
He quickly snapped back like a rubber-band upon hearing Alaric's words. He was practically the definition of mood swings, although I guess that would fit his heritage of chaos. "Spider-man!" he exclaimed excitedly, a huge grin on his face. Tadhg was a sucker for all things comic related and could quote most Marvel movies from memory. Spider-man was one of his favorites, being one of the first comics he had stumbled upon.
