"Rude." He said to her doggie put downs. Timber did nothing of the sort and Drake thought it was pretty low to start making generalizations like that. "You're going to hurt his feelings talking like that. You should be ashamed for picking on a poor defenseless puppy." It had been some time since Timber had been a puppy and Drake knew it but he wouldn't let his dog be viciously attacked because of Danielle's fear. She was just going to have to deal with it because Timber want going anywhere.
"You just wait. One of these days you're going to be glad you've got Timber around and then you're going to be sorry you made fun." He didn't know how but one day his sister would get over her phobia. She would realize that she had been wrong all these years and that Timber really was a good dog. He just hoped that when that day finally came that he would be around to see it. Those mean words would look good when she had to eat them but for now he didn't think things would be anytime soon. "Alright, come on. Timber could use the walk and maybe a little walk will cool you off too Miss Dog Hater."

Danielle was such a baby when it came to dogs. Drake didn't understand what the big deal was. In fact, as far as pets went dogs were some of the most loving and most loyal and yet every time she saw one she went into hysterics. She was still his sister though and he guessed he probably shouldn't take as much pleasure out of seeing her reaction as he did but it was hard not to laugh sometimes especially when the dog "attacking" her was Timber.
"Bet his mouth is cleaner than yours." He said as he pulled away from the dog. He was still laughing at the moment but for now he seemed content to bring her torture to an end. He grabbed the leash out of his bag and attached it to Timber's collar who stood there watching the two of them wagging his tail happily. "Come on Dani it wasn't that bad. Besides, how could you resist this lovable furry face?" He scratched the dog lovingly behind the ear and gave his sister a reassuring smile. "I'll protect you from the big bad wolf okay?"

Drake usually took the dog with him when he went to practice. It was good for Timber to be out and considering that it was the only time he really got to see his dog since Danielle didn't let him keep it with them in the barracks that meant these times were all the more special. As the dog came into sight Drake's face lit up. "Timber!" He exclaimed but it wasn't Drake the dog was barreling towards. Instead, it was to Danielle that Timber went with his tail wagging happily to see her.
The girl's reaction was pretty typical. Drake had seen it 100 times as his sister screamed and crumpled away from the animal in fear. Timber didn't care. The dog happily licked at the girl's arms trying to smoother her in the love that she so clearly did not want. Drake couldn't help but laugh but he grab hold of his dog's neck and wrestle him gently away from the panicky girl. "Oh He just wants you to pet him Danielle. He missed you." Happy to receive attention Timber turned to his master as Drake got right into the dog's face. "Who's a big old softie? You are! That's right you are you big old softie dog." Timber licked at Drake's face as he laughed and cuddled the animal. "Did you scare Danielle? Yes you did." It was likely the dog would never learn to leave Dani alone if he kept getting spoiled like this but that was okay. He was harmless after all. No matter what Danielle might think.

He shrugged as he glanced back at the arguing teams. Some of them were pointing at him and making some pretty colorful gestures. “For what it’s worth they are very pointy brooms and very hairy grown men. You try taking them on.” That would probably go over well. He could see it now with Danielle rushing in to save the day from the hairy old dudes on his team. He had apparently convinced her however and that was enough for him.
“My hero.” He said with a smile as she teased him. “But yeah I’m ready. I would hate to see what happened if this place if they got rowdy.” He nodded seriously enough but honestly it would have been pretty funny to see what a mob of angry curlers could do. That said he was happy to be getting out of here and he led the way to the nearest exit. “I saw you out there. Looked like you were getting close on your jump.” He said as he led them outside. He would have said more but just then something big, hairy and very canine came bounding around the corner and it was headed straight for Danielle.

“Careful sis that’s a good way to get frostbite.” He said with a nod towards the stuck out tongue. He wouldn't have really done anything and she probably knew it but it was still good to threaten. She was his sister after all. “Now, now it’s no time to pout. The ice rink will still be here tomorrow and there will be more than enough time to practice the backwards, spiny, twirly, jump thingy tomorrow. Besides, you wouldn’t want your brother torn apart by a mob of angry curlers would you?” He smiled at her winningly hoping that she would get the picture.
“Come on Dani. Haven’t you spent enough time in there for one day?” He was sure his sister would have spent all day at the ice rink if she could but even super serious Olympic ice skating hopefuls needed a break sometime. “Very graceful landing back there by the way. You didn’t hurt yourself did you?” Despite what she may have thought he did really care. The simple fact of the matter was he thought that she took her training a little too seriously sometimes and while he wasn’t expecting to change that any time soon he could do a small part by keeping an eye on her in the meantime which sometimes included pulling her away from the place against her will. Hopefully that wouldn't be the case today but you never really knew.

Drake let out a long yawn as he listened to his teammates discuss strategy and their next move and how best to place their last rock in order to secure a win. He supposed he probably should be involved in the conversation since he would be taking the last curl but the simple fact of the matter was that he just didn’t care. "Yeah, yeah, rock in the house. Got it." He said dismissively when one of his teammates asked some question or others. He was sure it was very important and all but he was done for the day and ready top head back to the cabin." As the huddle broke and his team moved off to take their positions Drake made the perfunctory motions of lining up a shot he wasn't overly concerned about. Almost without any thought or aiming he took a kneeling slide across the ice and gently released his rock to glide smoothly across the ice. His first thought as he watched it was 'Oops' as the rock actually began curving away from the target this was quickly followed with 'Well I guess I'll have to make this work' and then he began to put those ice powers to use making subtle changes to the rink to change his rock's course and send it back towards the target. "Well go on guys, sweep." He said to his dumbfounded teammates who immediately went to work brushing down the ice. To his credit Drake knew what he was doing. The stone hit the opposing team's rock knocking it clear and then slid just a bit more to settle dead center for the point, the set and the match. His teammates cheered, the other team was crying foul but Drake was already headed for the door. He had put in his time for the week and it was time to get out of here. "Danielle." He called to the girl he saw on ice skates. "Danielle! Come on it’s past time to get out of here and I think the natives are getting restless."

Drake would love it if he could skate through life without any kind of expectations or responsibilities at all. The problem with the legion and people in generally really is that they take things too seriously. Example number one is Drake's sister Danielle. The girl trains so hard that it makes Drake worry about her sometimes. Him though? He's not about that life at all. Drake would rather glide by just under everyone's notice so that no one gets any wise ideas that he can actually be trusted with anything.
Secretly Drake is a little scared about what kind of expectations that others might have of him. He's afraid of letting people down, of not being able to live up to those expectations so he's just decides not to care. After all, those who don't try never look foolish. Sure people might think he's lazy and worthless because he never puts any effort into anything but that's okay. If there's one thing that Drake has learn it's that woes and stresses are only fleeting when you decide not to put any effort in what you're doing.
Behind the scenes Drake does really care. He cares about his sister and no matter how much he puts on the disguise of a slacker he can't change that. In fact, it may be because his sister is such a perfectionist and a hard worker that he is the way that he is. He sees what that stress can do to a person in how she acts out and he doesn't want to be that way himself so to counter her extreme hard working attitude he has taken the opposite approach. It has worked for him so far, he just hopes he'll one day figure out a way to help his sister relax a little.
godly parent-- Chione / Roman
family--
Isabella Lane - 42, daughter of Aeolus, Homemaker
Andrew Lane - 45, legacy of Nox, University Professor
Danielle Lane - 17, fraternal twin sister, legionaire, daugter of Chione
pets-- Timber, Siberian Husky
hometown-- New Rome
history--
When you're a known demigod growing up in New Rome life isn't exactly easy. It's not fair to have so many expectations to join the legion and succeed at life when you're so young. When your family are all super intense legacies of the Legion that makes things even worse. That's how it was for Drake and since day one when he learned that his parents had all these super important expectations of what his life would be he's felt the pressure from them and tried to avoid it.
It all started with their super intense training regimes. All because he was a son of Chione he was expected to be some super star on the ice. They sent him to the ice skating rink and made him, made him, pick out some stupid Olympic sport to train at so he picked the laziest Olympic sport he could, curling, and it was with the New Rome curling team that he would spend most of his time over the next few years.
Yeah he was good at it. In fact, he had to make himself fail at the sport on purpose just to prove a point. His parents didn't let him give up on it though. Oh no, they forced him to keep on keeping on and that's exactly what he's been doing much to his chagrin. Life wasn't fair but luckily Drake learned to get by doing just enough so that he didn't get yelled at and that was plenty for him.
Danielle liked it of course. She still does. She even liked it when they joined the Legion at the age of twelve and were all of a sudden being trained to be fierce Roman warriors. Drake wasn't too happy about that idea but he had the recommendations and somehow, maybe with the strength of his sister's appointment to push things along, he made it into the 1st cohort with her.
It was hell. Training day and night, the weight of the 1st cohort's name following around, nobody needed that kind of stress so again Drake decided he was having none of it. He didn't purposefully start going against his commanders or his parents, that would only bring more punishments and more work on him, Instead he put the lessons he had learned on the curling team to use here as well and found a way to skate by while keeping a low profile.
The worst part is that he's gotten used to it over time. He would never admit it to anyone, especially his sister but the Legion isn't so bad and as long as you stay out of trouble. The only problem is that as he's gotten more used to his life his sister seems to be taking the opposite approach. While this wouldn't normally be a problem he sees her taking more and more risks and that isn't necessarily a good thing. He worries about her sometimes and he doesn't usually worry about anything. Such as it is it's getting harder and harder to keep his mouth shut but for now he doesn't really know what to do and until he does he's committed to keeping the status quo.
