Week 3: Mingle

week 3:

════════ ⋆ ★ 27 DOODZ REMAIN ★ ⋆ ════════

Whew, what a stressful way to end a week! After that, maybe our heroes could use a relaxing stroll downtown? Just hop on the S.U.P.E.R. to check out the new locations!

This week Amethyst Snake, Crimson Phoenix, White Tiger, and Yellow Rabbit can be found patrolling the city or watching construction.

If you wander the streets, you're sure to run into a prinny or two trying to sell you the Monday newspaper. Looks like there is something spicy this week! Luckily, you always seem to have the right amount of cash for such things.

Should heroes go stargazing at night, they will find that the moon appears to be in the new moon phase. Yes, all week. Villains tend to wander more at night, however, so the local authorities would suggest staying in after dark, unless you plan to try your hand at fighting crime. They welcome the help.

It appears that they have earned some new tokens to use on the AMAZOOM app. What cards will they get this week?

You may not be feeling cuddly anymore, but now there's a new problem. When you go to use your personal powers this week, you'll find that it does something you're not expecting. Hey, isn't that someone else's power? Better learn how that works fast, before you cause more problems in the city!

Early Monday morning, all heroes receive a message from the RANKINGS app on their phone:

This week's hero rankings are as follows:

1st. Gold Mouse

2nd. Aquamarine Fox

3rd. Crimson Phoenix

4th. Amethyst Snake

5th. White Tiger

6th. Emerald Goat

7th. Cobalt Ox

8th. Yellow Rabbit

Congratulations, heroes, and keep up the good work!

[ he trusts danny to take care of himself, it's fine. ]

Thank gods for that. [ it's mumbled and he finishes binding his clones hands, but he pauses to just. stare for a second. ] ...think if we remove their mustaches they lose their powers? [ this isn't a real question but the mustache is wigging him out a little. ]

[foreverphantom]

[ fucking blinks. ] What?

[resumed]

[ immediately holding up a hand like "i don't want to hear it." ]

Before you say it, you'd be surprised what kinds of weaknesses some monsters and gods have.

[foreverphantom]

If I can defeat a god by pulling off his mustache, then you have got to take me back to your world.

[resumed]

[ there's a laugh. ]

Ask Will about the time he gave the goddess of night hay fever to help us beat her. [ but he considers this. ] You'd probably fit in with the rest of us, really.

[foreverphantom]

All the rest of you, huh?

How many are there?

[resumed]

Unofficially? I have no idea. [ he's just trying to figure out a good way to scoop up his clone to dump him somewhere while he's talking. ] Not every one of us gets claimed right away, or even found. But for those of us who are it's...more than you'd initially think but still less than it should be. Summer sessions are always busiest, so camp can get up to 100 people. But since it just ended Will and I are the only ones there while everybody else went back to living across the country.

[foreverphantom]

[ danny's probably untangled himself by now but he's just gonna sit here and watch and not offer any help at all ]

Wow. A hundred, huh? That's...more than I thought there would be.

What's across the country?

[resumed]

[ which is fair, because the clone would probably wake up and bitch about being touched. so nico's busy scooping the clone up in a fireman carry. sort of. the grip is a little awkward because he and his clone are the same size. how the hell do other people do this.

(the answer is they're taller, that's how.) ]

Those are just the ones at Camp Half-Blood. There're some friends of ours who no longer attend their camps because they're living normal lives, or they're going to college or any other number of circumstances. [ like death, for instance, but he does not say that. ] Percy and Annabeth just left for New Rome for their first semester a few weeks ago, for instance.

...Camp Jupiter's in California for one thing, which is the Roman camp, but I just mean a lot of demigods live outside of New York. I was at a military academy in Maine before. Will's originally from Texas, but his siblings are from Harlem and Toronto. [ shrug! ]

[foreverphantom]

[ jesus christ y'all have a whole infrastructure for your shit???? wild. ]

So when it's not summer...everyone but you two go back to one of the other camps or wherever they used to live before?

[resumed]

Not exactly. Will and I having camp to ourselves is sort of a new thing. There're other people who usually stay year round but...with everything that's been going on, a lot of people want to spend more time with their families and trying to live normal lives while they can. Camp Jupiter's just for the Romans, so Greek demigods don't actually attend. Those two just got permission from the Praetors to go to school and live there because of everything that happened in the war with Gaea. Plus, Percy was actually there for a little while after he was kidnapped and had his memories erased.

[ #justdemigodthings ]

Otherwise yes. People go back to where they used to live.

[foreverphantom]

[ whistles, impressed ]

Wow, you guys really have your own system and society, huh?

[resumed]

Kinda have to in order to survive, you know? If anything, we're adaptable. [ he has finally managed to haul his clone up. ] C'mon. Do me a favor and help me open the door so I can toss him outside.

[foreverphantom]

[ snorts ] Sure, but we don't have anything like that.

[ gets up and opens the door casually as he keeps talking ]

...then again, there's only two of us, so it's not like we could have anything like that.

[resumed]

[ and out the door they go to toss the clone into a dumpster, probably. ]

Two of you is one more than I expected. Really?

[foreverphantom]

[ squints ]

There might be a third? But I'm not totally clear on that part.

[resumed]

Sounds confusing. [ ... ] I mean then again I didn't even realize I had another sister for a huge period of my life so I guess maybe it's not that weird.

[foreverphantom]

That's family drama for you.

...or species drama, I guess, in my case.

[resumed]

Do not get me started on family drama. [ lmao. but okay. into the dumpster the clone goes with very little regard. ] But I'm kind of curious about who else exists like you in your world. Tell me about it another time?

[ to free us from the mingle. ]
