She laughed as he continued with the joke, but her laughter was caught in her throat when he mentioned that nobody was struck by lightning yet because of that. "Wait, what?!" She asked raising her hands in a stopping motion. "You mean people have been struck by lightning before? Out of the blue?" Somehow that thought scared her. And it wasn't so hard to understand why either. Being electrocuted on a clear day for no apparent reason was enough to scare anybody. With Agni's fear-releasing presence there, that fear only increased.

So basically, right now, my girl is the only Ares Kid in Camp. I would like her to have one (or more) sibling that has been around Camp longer than she has. Face claims, genders and personalities are all yours to make. I don't have something specific I want to see. Except maybe the fact they would fight at first because of initiation and they could and probably will, fight in the future. Hopefully all in a non-murderous relationship in the long run. That's pretty much it. If you're interested, have any questions reply here or shoot me a PM or find me in the chat box. WORDS ● TAGGED ● NOTES

"My pants aren't smart." Agni said cuasing her to snort. "Thank God I didn't ask your pants then. Who knows what they would've told me." But then it registered to her. "Or is it Thank Gods? Do they..." She pointed at the sky. "Get annoyed by that phrase or what?"
She had to raise an eyebrow when he responded to her comment about him being decent. "Okay then. So you're decent with new people and a pain in the ass for people who know you longer than what? A few hours? That's a weird logic." She pointed out and took a quick look at her watch. She had Tracking Skills lessons later in the day and she didn't want to be late. But she still had some time.

Atalanta couldn't stop the urge to facepalm and so she did. "Thanks smartpants! I didn't know the exact definition of little." She shrugged with a smirk. She tilted her head to the side a little. "You know.... For a guy who doesn't like being around people and scares them off, you seem pretty decent." She said as that was her initial assessment of him. Sure she had very little to go by at this point. But the guy was okay if you managed to get passed that fear vibe challenge of his. At least she thought it was a challenge. His repeated 'fun' was something which created doubts in her mind, but then again, these days everything created doubts in her mind. Nothing was as it seemed to be anymore.

Atalanta shrugged on his comment about all Ares' kids being like her. Ares himself was not like her. Ares was a god of violence and, if the way it worked was for the kids to be miniatures of their godly parents, she was doing something wrong. She didn't mind it however. She was being herself and that was all that mattered. No matter what her siblings did, she would not change.
"Define little." She told Agni with a light chuckle. She knew that even the toughest guy could break down if scared enough. She had applied that technique to stop bullies at her school. She had made herself the master bully. The Bully all bullies feared. But there was one key difference here. She only fought to defend the victims and that meant she only bullied when provoked, when she was protecting someone. Her eyes wondered to find Lycaon, before she focused on Agni again. The pup was still close by, playing with the water and rolling on the sand, which had Atalanta grunt a little in thought of the bath she would have to give the pup later.

Cleo Price: That was what I thought when I read her profile. These two are opposites, but they could work together. If they become friends, Atalanta is going to always have Cleo's back even die defending her if we're talking about a war. But even if they don't end up being friends, Atalanta would teach her how to fight. But for now she has no idea about any civil wars coming or what has happened before her arrival. Only bits and pieces that don't really make much sense to her. So yes, I want to put these two together and see what happens. Charlotte Low: I don't know yet how things with Harper are going to play out because Rachel and I have yet to thread with the two of them, but the initial idea is for Harper to help Atalanta out with how Camp works. Take her under her wing, that sort of thing. Atalanta would only see a friendly face in Harper so she doesn't care what other people might say about her. She will probably defend her from anyone trying to mess with Harper. That could either help clear Char's doubts or intensify the jealous feelings in which case they might end up in a fight? I'm not entirely sure. When it comes to the two pups, yes moms look out for their kids and in her pup's case, she looked out for him even when she was attacked by monsters. So I can definitely see her fixing a mess he made or try and keep him out of trouble. She would be happy with Lycaon playing with Ray, especially since her siblings want to train her pup to become a K-9 and she doesn't want that. As for Char trying to teach her proper aim... I must warn you that Atalanta won't be able to be anything other than 'medium lousy. You have been warned! But yup! I'm game for any of them in a thread. I can start anything whenever and with whomever. Just say the word!

Atalanta had to stop and think how bad this sounded to other people. Her mother always returned home with a war story. It was what she did for a living. But she always made sure that the gore Atalanta was exposed to as a child was kept to a minimum. As minimum as it could be considering Atalanta used to return home with a bloody lip or a blue eye from a fight while at Primary school. "Nah. It made me stop coming home with a bloody face after school. Mom always hid the most gory photos of her reports in places I couldn't find them. But it was enough to make me reconsider how and when I picked up fights." She explained, closing the subject.
"Though how does your fear vibes work for you when you come across people who tend to lash out when they are afraid? It sure as hell is a great defense mechanism though." She ignored his dark chuckle and comment on being left alone for a moment. His way of defense was more interesting to her than what exactly he meant by 'fun'. To her all this power-things and Gods and Mythology-being-real was a new experience. She felt as if she was sucked in some Hollywood action movie and that made her curious about stuff other, more experienced, demigods took for granted. Powers derived from the aspects of their godly parents was one of those things.

I can definitely see these two becoming good friends, but I can also see them get in the occasional fight. But I think that Atalanta will mostly think of Royce as a rival, at least when it comes to training. She is not a tracker runner, which means she is not that fast in a straight line, but she can definitely dance on the roofs and fly over obstacles.
Atalanta doesn't know much about Camp and she tries to see how she can fit in, but she also lost her mother a month ago and she didn't have time to mourn properly and to think how her life is going to be from now on. So she may look alright on the outside, but on the inside things are a bit more complicated. She mostly tries to keep that to herself though.
So these two could either meet through their German Shepherds, while Atalanta works out at the Beach or in the Training Arena. Any other ideas you might have are most welcome. I'm cool with starting a thread whenever.

Atalanta didn't know ADHD and Dyslexia were part of a demigod's life. She just assumed she was unlucky enough to be born with them. "My mom didn't just tell me, she showed me photos and videos from war zones." She replied to his remark about being told that fear was just part of life. Indeed it was. She thought that fear in logical amounts was what kept people going, helping them survive.
"Is that a challenge? You think you can outran me enough to not get your nose broken?" She asked, tilting her head to the side with a confident smile. She was teasing Agni. Even if the son of Phobos was a fast runner, Atalanta was a fairly good runner, but most of all she had stamina. All she would have to do was tire him out.
"Anyway, what brings you to the beach if not the view?" She was curious. In her case she had come to train and take Lycaon for a walk. She highly doubted that Agni had taken his snake out for a walk on the beach.

She hadn't been called a banshee in a long long time. Back when she was still a little kid, her warcry, whenever she got into a fight, was really high-pitched. Banshee material. Now that she was older it was a lot deeper. Yet, compared to a man's shout, she was still a tone higher.
"There's a thing called ADHD. Basically my brain can't focus long enough on just one thing. Put me in a place with too many distractions and I won't be able to focus on Shotokan properly. Put me in a completely peaceful environment and I will go nuts. Music, my playlist to be more specific, keeps my brain occupied enough to not go nuts, but also this place has less distractions than the training arena." She explained, crossing her arms over her chest. She was about to ask him what kind of fun he was looking for, but his creepy smile made her reconsider. Whatever it was it had to be unpleasant for other people and she felt like, if she asked, she would be on the receiving end of his fun-time.
"If I were on angry bull mode you would end up with something broken. Your nose most probably." She told him, the smirk slowly widening in her face, but as he spoke about his family, she frowned. "I don't mind getting my hands dirty. But I've seen what a war-zone can do to innocent people. Mindless violence I don't like and I try to keep myself in control most of the time. So yeah, my mom told me it's okay to fight, but it shouldn't be a fight just for the sake of it." Her fists clenched, but they were not directed at Agni. It was merely a reaction to the way she felt about all this. Her hands were still folded.
"And you go about judging a book by it's cover. I barely know those kids, so don't assume I'm exactly like them. But if I feel like fighting, then be sure it's gonna be ugly."

She shrugged on his comment about his eardrums. He should know better than to aggravate a child of Ares. "Just drop it, okay?" She said as she tightened her shoelaces with a bit more force than necessary. Then she stood up again, stretching her arms above her head.
"As ironic as it may sound, I didn't come out here to train with a sword or something like that. I need some peace and quiet so I can focus on my Shotokan katas." She told him seriously, but a small smile began to warm its way onto her face. "Besides, running on the sand barefoot is a better exercise than regular running. Not to mention the view." She added and searched for Lycaon's whereabouts, finding the pup playing with the water within shouting distance.
"And this may come as a shock to you, but I only fight when there's need for it. A cause. That I learned from my mother. My dad taught me nothing. So don't expect me to run about like an angry bull all the time."

She felt her anger rising as he continued to argue she could've done more while she was on the run. That running away only made things worse. When he laughed about how it would be fun to watch her as she broke the nose of her half-brother, she was tipped off. Her fists clenched. It was clear that she was putting great effort in not punching him. "You don't know how it was! What would you have me do? Fight the two Cyclopes disguised as social workers in a small appartment? Or maybe try and kill a dracenae in the middle of Manhatan?" She yelled at him angrily and clenched her teeth. She bit down on her fist to calm down.
She wasn't entirely sure what was making her so angry. Maybe it was the fact she was being called a coward. Atalanta never liked that. It frustrated her to no end. Maybe it was her reaction to fear. Whenever she felt fear she lashed out, even as a toddler. But if anyone knew what had actually happened to her before she got to Camp all bloodied in the hands of a satyr, they could tell it was because she didn't have the time to mourn properly. To actually sit down and process what had happened.
Taking a deep breath she swiftly sat down again, putting her sneakers back on. "Just...." She wasn't looking at him, she had focused more on her shoelaces, tying them up, than she should've under normal circumstances. "I came out here to train, alright? Not to pick a fight." She told him, still not looking up at him.

"Great." She muttered to herself as Agni confirmed the fact they were somehow related. She didn't want to find out she had people related to her through such a crazy bloodline. Heck she didn't really want to be there, she didn't want to be a demigod. Maybe she would've found it thrilling had the circumstances been different. Now all she wished for was for things to go back to being normal. Her eyes narrowed. Had he called her a coward? Did he actually expect her to beat two Cyclopes to a bloody pulp when they had come for her that day?
She wasn't sure if it was his previous aura of fear getting to her now, or maybe she wasn't as fine as she thought she was. But she snapped. "No. I don't. All I had was my fists, a backpack and a pup. I had no idea what was going on and I realized that trying to beat a Cyclops to a bloody pulp would kill me. After that I decided that in order to survive I had to shake them off my tracks. Whenever they found me again, I just hit and ran. I couldn't know my enemy because my enemy was not supposed to exist."
She grabbed her hoodie from the sand and wrapped it around her waist. "And for the record. I did break one of their noses. Wonder how you would fare if you had Ares' sons ganging up on you..." WORDS ● Agni D'Arque ● OPEN (lookie, he managed to piss her off, which is not really that hard, but shhhhh!)

Atalanta's face darkened when Agni mentioned her innitiation. "Don't remind me. Makes me wanna beat the crap out of them." She growled. Then she looked down as Lycaon seemed to be getting used to the dark teen's presence and began to explore the beach again, venturing farther than where the two demigods currently stood. She had to cross her arms over her chest when he said it was okay to show her fear and that running away was due to fear.
She shook her head in denial. Showing fear only made matters worst. What you had to do, her mom always told her, was to face and defeat your fears. "I may be the daughter of a war god, but I am not stupid. Fighting an enemy with no chances of defeating them is not exactly my idea of a fight. Running away was a means to survive. I fought my way out of it. And I couldn't scare them to death or something like you would've done. With no celestial bronze I didn't stand a chance." She explained in exasperation as if it was obvious. Then Agni's godly side of the family registered with her and she took a step back.
"Wait! Would that make me your aunt? Because that would be creepy." She said and she wasn't teasing at this point. To have a boy your age as your nephew without never knowing they existed was indeed a creepy concept to her.

YES, YES, YES and did I mention? YES!
Yes to all of them is my answer. I suggest we throw any of them together in a thread and see what happens. I also know you had been struggling with muse lately, so I'm cool with whatever. I can start a thread with anyone of the aforementioned characters whenever you give me the okay to do so.
