Gideon smiled, “ I would love nothing more than to have your help. Now what kind of castle are you thinking? There are so many different styles to choose from I can hardly decide.” Gideon would be lying if he said he wasn’t tempted to make an actual castle out of sand, but that would be too much. He would need to scale it down a lot. But having Harmonia help on a project was like a dream come true.

Harmonia smiled and shrugged. "If you were to make me a castle, what would it look like?" She winked at him and grabbed his hand to walk him towards where she had put her towel and staked her land as hers with an umbrella. The water was close enough that they can create a river around the castle if anything so they can have their OWN secluded castle, together.

Cam watched as people had walked into the portal. He stood up and slowly made his way to the portal. He didn't push and shove anyone. He honestly didn't really like confrontation. When he was finally was through he walked to the beach and felt under his sandals and socks. He took them off till where he was barefoot. He put both his sandals and his socks in the drawstring bag and slowly made his way onto the beach. He noticed the other Hephaestus, who he had seen in the forge from time to time. He didn't really talk to him that much. In fact, they hadn't officially met yet. He saw that he was standing with the other Aphrodite chosen Harmonia. She was pretty but it looked like she was with someone. He let out a small sigh and laughed at him. Why was all the Aphrodite so interesting. He found a plot of sand that not many people were around. He was also close to the other Hephaestus chosen and Aphrodite and Ares chosen.

Cam sat his bag nearby and took off his shirt. He wasn't the most confident, but he wasn't that bad looking in the body department. He wasn't as big as the other Hephaestus chosen but he could do the same things as him. He slowly started to build a sandcastle. He wasn't interested in the water, his passion was building and crafting and sandcastles were exactly that. His mind ran in an instant. He had a million ideas of what to build. He started by setting the location for the interior buildings. It was best to start on the inside and work your way out.

Kera Aetos​

Kera stared toward Elizabeth, listening intently, though her expression did not change. "Getting them to listen is my responsibility, you should never have been forced into such a predicament, and I hold no faith in Zeus's other children." She noted, nodding slightly as she spoke. The idea of the whole beach trip did bring many worries, ones that she had no doubt would turn out badly, as Elizabeth had mentioned. "They will heed my words, by persuasion, or force." She slightly scowled, looking back out into the hallway, before moving her gaze back toward the girl with a slight smile. There was one chosen in particular who could not escape her mind, and whom she had allowed to roam without warning for far too long. Kera's mind drifted for a short while, before her focus snapped back toward Elizabeth. "Please, enjoy yourself, the trials to come will surely be testing, let me worry about the others." She stated with a short smile, before leaving the girl to her own devices. It was clear this chosen of Hera had some issue with Zeus's chosen, or the man himself, still, she could not help but reminisce over the problems her own mother had, and the goddess that all too well fitted with them.

Morning
Kera's bikini was simple, golden coloured board-shorts and bikini top. The thought of Harmonia's opinion on her dorm-mate's garb almost made her smirk, their intentions clearly were not the same this day. It was not long before Kera was finished with breakfast and through the portal, standing watch over the beach at the other chosen, taking a seat as she did so. Normally, or at least in her experience on the mortal plane, a few guys would come to bother her on such a day, but thankfully the other demi-goddesses were more than enough of a distraction, that, and her facial expression was not exactly inviting.

Finally, noticing another of the chosen leaving the water, Kera got up, walking toward her, examining her motions as she did so. "A strange song for the god of war." Kera's voice echoed as she stood above Tera, though it was clearly kept down as to not be audible to the mortals around. Kera glanced up toward Lena, taking note of her. "The chosen of Artemis, a fine specimen, wouldn't you agree?" Her deadpan expression watched on, before her face directed back toward Tera, a slight grin forming on the side of her lips.

Casey felt the heat of the sun on the back of his neck. He realized that he had forgotten his hat at home, what a mistake. He glanced up from his feet as he walked down the pier, he saw what seemed like thousands of people congesting the path ahead. He liked going to the end of the pier and reading a book. The noise around him didn't bother him much, it was the occasional pitter patter of children running past that really got on his nerves. He could spend all day by the water if he had time for it, or the patience. The thud of every footstep on the planks of the platform resonated through Casey's body. With the end of the pier in sight he could feel the breeze going through his hair. Casey reached out and grabbed the railing. The metal was warm to the touch but not burning. He stood there for a moment admiring the waves until he sat down with his feet hanging over the edge. He brought his book up in front of his face, How To Make Friends. He felt around the edges for his bookmark and flipped to page he left off, "Starting Conversations".

LAST NIGHT BEFORE BEACH IN BLACKSMITH ROOM
Gideon smiled and nodded, “ Not a problem. Give me a few moments and I’ll be finished with Harmonia’s gift.” Just as Gideon described it only took him another moment to finish Harmonia’s ring. It was so much easier to do the second time around. Gideon took Zoe’s plans and began to work on them as well. It was a simple design so it only took the caffeine fueled Gideon a moment to attach the jewel and work in the finer details.

Zoe was looking over Gideons shoulder when he made Harmonia's ring and Sherri's necklace. Should I have told Gideon to make Sherri a ring? I think it's too early She kept watching and had her photogenic memory remember where his hands were. After Gideon was done Zoe smiled at the necklace and the ring. "The ring came out great Gideon! She's going to love it! And thank you so much for making the necklace. It looks perfect! Any chance you can teach me in the future how to blacksmith? It looks fun and like something I would enjoy doing." St. Boethius [Gideon-Ivan]

Gideon shrugged at the idea of teaching her how to smith. “ I don’t mind, but you’ve already got more skill than most mortals. If I actually sit down and teach you then I’ll be out of a job.” Gideon said jokingly. He didn’t mind taking her under his wing so to speak. “ tell you what. You can help me with a pet project of mine. It’ll serve as your training. Sound good?”Gideon asked handing the necklace over and tucking the ring into his pocket. @JJ {Bri-Harm-Zoe-Jas-Serenity}

Zoe's ears perked up. "Sure! Let me know. I would love to help." She was rather excited about learning something new again. She was way too good at the things she knew and learning something NEW that she had no idea how to do was rather fun. She hid the necklace just in time for Harmonia to jump through the door.

Harmonia entered the lab/blacksmith area. "Helloooo people!" She practically danced towards Gideon and gave him a kiss on the cheek. "Here are your clothes beautiful." She looked down at his legs and GASPED. "Omg! Zoe! Gideon! They look great! I can't even tell if they're fake." She bent down and poked the leg. "Gideon, can you feel them when I touch them?" Zoe nodded at Harmonia and Harmonia had her mouth wide open. "That is sooo cool."

Zoe gestured to Gideon to go change and started to explain to Harmonia the difference of the OLD legs and the NEW legs. Harmonia seemed rather lost but she did her best to catch up to Zoe's explanations and got the gist of it.

Gideon chuckled as Harmonia poked his legs. The chuckle was mostly to keep his face from grimacing in pain as they were still kinda sensitive. “ I’m glad you like them. That makes the effort that much more worth it.” Gideon said before showing Harmonia the ring. “ here... a gift.”

Harmonia smiled towards Gideon and got up in a quick jump. "I hope it wasn't TOO painful." She saw Zoe's face and her eyes widened. "I hope it was worth it! I mean, it looks great... it sounds more functional... Will they be good for tomorrow? I have no problem staying back with you or just laying on the sand with you." She was trying to make Gideon feel better but he seemed to have stopped her as he fiddeled with something in his pocket and took out the ring he had made for her in the simulation- but in real life. Harmonia felt her eyes getting teary. She checked for the same signature information that was within the ring and she hugged Gideon from the side worried about hurting him with his new legs. "Thank you thank you thank you." She kissed him passionately on the lips. "Alright mister. I think it's time we actually CONTINUE this.. Need my help to get up?" She offered him her shoulder and a huge smile. St. Boethius [Gideon-Ivan]

Zoe watched the cute couple and when they kissed she moved her face away so she couldn't see them. Afterwards, she coughed and said "Sooo, Im going to head to the dorms. My task here is done. Gideon, it was a pleasure. Harmonia, thank you for taking care of my girl." Zoe almost ran off ut Harmonia stopped her.

"Wait! I got you something too!" Harmonia showed Zoe the bag and tossed it her way. "I got you a bikini and a cover up I KNOW Sherri would like."

Zoe blushed and thanked Harmonia. She ran off getting her head ready for whatever SHerri wanted to tell her.

Gideon gave a nervous chuckle, “ I’ll not play it tough. I could definitely use some help. These new legs will take some getting used to, but they should be good by tomorrow. “ Gideon said starting to lean on her just a little. He wasn’t sure how strong she was and didn’t want the both of them to end up on the floor. @JJ {Bri-Harm-Zoe-Jas-Serenity}

Harmonia felt Gideon put very little weight on her and she huffed. "I'm a soon to be Goddess, Gideon, I can take more than that." She started to walk towards the boys dorm room and towards his room. The hand that was free had the ring he had given her and she was rather aware of it on her finger. She felt as if a butterfly was in her stomach as she started to turn it on her finger. "I just want to thank you again for the ring Gideon. It really is perfect. You have a craftsmanship like none other and the fact that you re-created the ring that brought us together in the first place?" She stopped there since her throat was starting to choke up and she wanted to make sure she held on to him tight and didn't make him fall. St. Boethius [Gideon-Ivan]

LAST NIGHT IN DORMS (Sherri and Zoe)
Sherri had almost fallen asleep when Zoe walked into the room, and she rubbed her eyes in an attempt to expel her exhaustion, standing up from the bed. "Hey Zoe, did the whole Gideon's legs thing go well?" She was a little too exhausted to pay attention to the small details, especially on someone she wasn't cautious of, so she didn't notice any clues that would have told her Zoe was hiding a present from her.

Zoe automatically cuddled up with Sherri. "Gideon's leg thing was..." She stopped and tried to figure out how to put 5 hours of work and a LOT of clean up into a sentence. "Interesting." She then moved her arm to put Sherri on her chest. "Talk to me sweetie. With the whole Harmonia stealing you away thing we haven't been able to talk." Tenshi «Sher, Crys, Nika, Blake»

"Wait, before that..." Sherri admitted it, she was most definitely procrastinating even more at this point, but she did want to give Zoe her present that she had bought at the mall as soon as possible, she was kind of impatient. She dug in her pocket and pulled out two identical necklaces, steel engraved to mimic the appearance of a celtic knot in the shape of a heart. "I've always loved these things for the simple interweaving patterns, and rubbing it calms me. It's not too cheap... Is it?" She looked worriedly at Zoe's face, concerned that she wouldn't like it. "I know it's cheesy, but..."

Zoe watched and almost called Sherri out on the fact that she was again trying to change the story but sighed in her own head and allowed Sherri to be Sherri. No matter what she loved her and she was GOING to hear it before they fell asleep. She looked at the gifts with adoration. "A celtic knot of inifinte love and and a triquetra? Sherri... I love it. It's perfect." She hugged Sherri and was tempted to give her the necklace now but she had a feeling she was going to need it later. "thank you for thinking of me I really appreciate it." She booped Sherri's nose and gave her an eskimo kiss. "Now stop procrastinating woman. I am ready for knowledge and cuddle time." @That G «Sher, Crys, Nika, Blake»

"I'm glad you like it." Sherri smiled, but when Zoe pushed her to talk she sighed and looked away. "Alright... First, I have a few questions. Do you know what autism is? Do you know what chronic depression is? Do you know what anxiety disorder is? And do you know what me having all of that means?" She looked Zoe in the eye, looking a bit sad as she asked all of that with a serious tone of voice. @JJ {Bri-Harm-Zoe-Jas-Serenity}

Zoey's smile towards Sherri did not change. "I kow what autism, chronic depression, and anxiety disorder is. I also know that you have autism and anxiety disorder already but I have not personally seen you chronically depressed. It seems- and I hope this is true- that I make you rather happy." She moved Sherri's hair softly to show her she was okay. @That G «Sher, Crys, Nika, Blake»

 

[St. Boethius]

Gideon was ecstatic to say the least. This was a great opportunity to show off and have some nice bonding time with the girl he loved. “ hmm... if i were to build you one eh? Alright then...” Gideon began to build the castle starting with the most important thing, the foundation. “ So... what made you decide on that bathing suit?” As Gideon said that he had to stop with the sand because his heat was causing it to smoke. Thankfully it was just his hands as he looked Harmonia over.

Ivan was certainly not looking forward to today. The beach was exactly the opposite of where he was supposed to be. Nonetheless after he look his Ambrosia he went through the portal. When he immediately came into contact with the warm air he immediately felt sick. In an effort to still participate Ivan found someone who was alone, Jasmine, and sorta went up next to them. “ Sorry about this. I just need a minute. My name is Ivan. What’s yours?”

Tera was still lightly singing to herself when she heard someone speak to her. What's even worse they were standing in her light. "First off whoe1ver the fuck you are, get out of my light... Second, I don't know what you're talking about." She stood up and looked at Kera. "Ahh, a chosen of Zeus..." She looked over to Lena. "I would be lying if I said she wasn't... But what's it to you? Shouldn't you be trying to find someone else's day to ruin?" She said. She hated Zeus's. They think they better than everyone. Always trying to one-up someone. "What about you? Isn't there a Hera chosen or something that you can go and annoy seeing as how you're going to be married or are you going you going to let them down as well?" She asked.

Harmonia watched Gideon get to work and noticed he was still wearing his shirt. She frowned but didn't say anything about it yet. She enjoyed watching him build her a sand castle so she started to work on a huge 'river' around the space they would be creating the sandcastle as THEIR space. It was a rather big space honestly but she expected Gideon to go all out. When Gideon asked her about her bathing suit she blinked twice and looked down. "Well, first off. It's a top brand but it's not used as often because of its complexity. Second off, I feel really comfortable with my body and liked the idea of wearing a one piece that doesn't show off as much as other girls but does the job I wanted. It shows off that I am personally complicated, stubborn, and gives off a vibe that I am hot but don't mess with me. Now, if I wanted to give off the vibe of 'Completely Taken, Don't mess with me' I would wear your shirt above it." She smiled at him sending a huge hint his way that she wanted his shirt off HIM and on HER.

LAST NIGHT IN DORMS (Gideon and Harmonia)
By the time Harmonia had made it to his door Gideon had enough practice that he could stand on his own. Gideon held her in his arms. “ Hey now... if anyone should be crying here it should be me. I did just replace both my legs.” Gideon said jokingly as he held her close trying to comfort her. “ If a gift like that is enough to make you cry what should I expect for an engagement ring?”Gideon had probably said a bit too much with that, but it sorta slipped out.

In an effort to still participate Ivan found someone who was alone, Jasmine, and sorta went up next to them. “ Sorry about this. I just need a minute. My name is Ivan. What’s yours?”

Jasmine enjoyed the beach but she liked the idea of getting some ice cream and playing a few games in the arcade or going on the big wheel that was VERY famous on Santa Monica Pier. She wasn't a huge fan of PEOPLE more of PLANTS and there aren't exactly any of those in a beach. At least, not immediately. She was standing on the sand trying to figure out what to do when someone walked up to her. She could automatically tell they were another chosen. "Nice to meet you, Jasmine. Nothing to apologize. I'm kinda of stuck on what to do. I'm tempted to go on the pier, get some ice cream, and enjoy the carnival a little. Want to come with?" She smiled at him and looked into his eyes. His Iris seemed to have specks of white in it and he seemed uncomfortable with the sun beaming on him with his pale skin.

[That Lass Over There]

Last Night In Dorms (Sherri and Zoe)

Spoiler: This was pretty long...

Sherri put her finger over Zoe's lips, a faint smile on her face as she desperately tried to look okay. "Zoe, I'm happier than ever with you. Now, please, stay quiet as I tell you some things that you haven't gotten to learn since we've only been together a few days?" Sherri breathed in, and breathed out.

"Well, I guess I should start with autism... I, haven't meant to push you away the times I did, but it's something I do, and probably will continue to do." Sherri hugged Zoe, wanting to convey that nothing she was about to say meant that she disliked Zoe, or anything along those lines. "Autism... Well, you already know it's a social and learning disorder, but to describe it in a way that would make sense - every single person I meet and talk to throughout my day, some more than others, gives me this subconscious little prick of pain, because I get irritated over the abundance of sensory information and my inability to perfectly understand the other person. And, well, I need decompression time to be alone, and that was the legos. Well, they also help keep my motor functions passable and give me a creative outlet for my rage, so there's that too... It actually made me really uncomfortable when you came over because that was supposed to be the time I got to decompress. I didn't want to push you away, but I really needed to to make sure that I didn't explode in agony." She knew that it was a bit laughable after the people skills she had demonstrated in front of Zoe to say that she couldn't read people perfectly, but that was just the result of hard work and overcompensation.

"Then, there's anxiety... I guess it could be called, but really it boils down to one thing. I'm an absolute perfectionist, and nothing I do will ever be enough. Nothing I can do will ever be enough. It's why I developed a love of magic, all it took was a clever mind able to warp the rules a tiny bit and you'd be able to do anything... The perfect power able to achieve anything. It was a great ideal, but now that it's in my grasp I know that it's going to take a lot of work and time to even see the tip of that... But, basically, I hate myself. No matter what I do, no matter how well I do it, it could have been done better. I'm agonizing over the fact that we're doing this right now instead of me just talking the moment we became a thing, and I know that's unreasonable but I can't stop it. I'm ripping myself to shreds over how I handled you this morning, and I can't stand the fact that my self loathing not letting me believe I have an awesome girlfriend is making you feel like I don't love you. Because I do, and it hurts, because I believe you deserve so much more than me and what I can provide."

Sherri breathed deep several times, fingers digging into Zoe's back before Sherri broke off the hug and stepped back, smiling the brightest smile Zoe had ever seen on her face as tears streaked down her cheeks. "And, Zoe, the last thing I think you need to know... Well..." She paused for a moment, keeping it together. "Zoe, for all intents and purposes, you... love a ghost. I should be dead, twice over, by my own hands ten years ago. I'm only alive now because I decided between my own broken feelings that couldn't take this world anymore as opposed to the feelings of my parents that would be hurt, I could take the pain of living so that they wouldn't have to feel the pain of my death. And I love you, and you've made both my days and nights brighter than they've been in so long these past few days, but I don't think anything can change that Sherri Lewis died ten years ago the first time she tried to slit her throat when she realized that there are some unreasonable devils in the world who never knew a single thing about her but still had it as their life mission to ruin her life, even stating that their objective was to get her to go die." She looked at Zoe, tears still flowing and bitter yet bright smile still worn, not sure what to expect. For the first time ever, she had laid out her most vulnerable parts to a person, and she had no idea if Zoe could love her now that she had an idea of just how broken she was inside.

Gideon was dense but he wasn’t that dense. Gideon chuckled and took off his shirt, handing it to her. “ I wish I had your tact. My live would be so much easier. “ Gideon decided to go with a gothic style castle. As he started the very core of the castle would be a Greek style temple. Then he would have the rest of the castle build around it. It was a perfect representation of thier current situation.

"Expect LOTS of crying honestly and a big hug and probably a kiss like this-" She put her arms around him, one in his hair pulling slightly, and passionately kissed him with everything she had. She then backed up a little out of breath. "So, are you good for the night or would you prefer some- company?" She stopped realizing what that sounded like and blushed a little "For the whole having new legs thing." She clarified.

Harmonia put on a huge grin on her face. "Thank you!" She put her shirt over him and smelled it. "Oh. My. Goddess. Do you wear cologne or is this your regular smell? I think I'm in heaven." She kissed his cheek doing her best to not mess up his artwork/sand castle. She was amazed at his handy work and was tempted to just NOT touch the castle in case she screwed it up somehow. Then, she got an idea. "Oh! I'll be right back." She started to pick up seashells, branches, leaves, anything she found on the beach so she can decorate the castle on the inside and out with her own personal touches. She would keep bringing a few more here and there to Gideon and noticed the castle just got better and better everytime she came back. When she finally felt like she had enough to decorate she sat down next to him again. "Gideon, this is coming out REALLY good!" She started to add a few seashells as windows, others as beds, and started to create a little bridge out of branches so they can ENTER the castle.

That kiss was much more intense than Gideon had been expecting. So much so that had to use his door to prop himself up. Gideon was literally starting to burn up after a kiss like that. Panting as he tried to control himself Gideon said, “ I’m.... I’m alright. There are a few diagnostics I need to run before tomorrow and... let’s wait till I recover before you want to run a stress test, alright dove?” Gideon cleared his throat and the flames smoldered. “ I’ll see you in the morning dove. Good night.” Gideon opened his door and leaned on the door frame and mustered a smile for her before heading to his bed.

Nia swam back to shore. "well. No one saw that.... should've done a flip."

She decided she would go take a walk on the pier. There, she noticed a boy sitting on the edge reading a book titled How To Make Friends Well if anyone knows how to make friends it's me Nia thought to herself. This boy, at least from appearances, looked like a shut-in, introverted, bookworm who couldn't hold a conversation to save his life. Nia had pity on him. The red-haired heiress sat down next to him, watching the waves for a moment before she glanced over and read what chapter he was on. "Starting Conversations" "Hey, they usually start with a 'Hi' and then you exchange names. Hi, My name's Nia. A pleasure to meet you!"

The end result of Gideon’s work turned out to be a cross of of a fairytale castle and a military base. If Gideon had to describe it he would say it was like an evil overlords castle protecting the princess within. “ I’m glad you like it. I like your personal touches. Really brings it all together. “ Gideon complimented. This was certainly the best day in recent memory. Especially since it was his first time at the beach.

Ivan gave a small mile and nodded, “ Ice cream sounds amazing yes please. What sort of games do they have here? I’ve never left my fathers winter palace so this all so... new.” Ivan said breathing into his hands in an attempt to keep himself cold.

Alice was already eating her breakfast in her cover up and bikini, for she really wanted to have some fun at the beach today. 'I can't wait to go to the beach. I packed my beach towel, my sunscreen, my swim goggles, and an extra pair of clothes in my beach bag, because I can't wait to have some fun after that boring simulation.' thought Alice. She didn't want to hear a bunch of crying humans in her ears again, as there was nothing she could do about the situation besides giving some luck to those doctors.
After finishing her breakfast and drinking the nectar, Alice entered the portal to go to California. 'Finally something normal around here.' thought Alice. She kind of missed her normal life, but she was happy with her life at Godling Academy.
Alice was walking down the pier with the other chosens, and as soon as she was near the end of the pier. She noticed that one of the chosen was reading an interesting book. 'What kind of book is he reading?' thought Alice, who sneaked behind Casey to look what he was reading.

Last Night In Dorms (Sherri and Zoe)
Zoe smiled when Sherri mentioned she's been happier with her then ever before. That's all she wanted; Sherri's happiness. It was true, they have only been together for a few days but it had already felt like their souls had known each other for lifetimes, at least in her opinion. She kept her mind open to anything Sherri was about to tell her and knew no matter WHAT she was going to love this woman that she was looking at with all her heart.

First, she started to talk about autism and explaining to her what it was. It allowed her to understand the small difficulties their relationship was having. The moments she wasn't sure if Sherri was pushing her away or not. But she wasn't. She feels like she has this condition. She knew the book definition but now she was wondering if SHE had autism. SHE didn't understand people well. SHE didn't care to talk to people. She also did have fun with those legos though but it seemed like Sherri's way of decompressing was time alone with the legos. Zoe nodded at her understanding.

Then, she mentioned anxiety but mainly it just being a perfectionist issue. She started to understand her love of magic. Then, Sherri mentioned she hated herself and Zoe twitched by accident. It hurt to hear the person she loved say that. How can she ever know how much I love her when she can't even love herself? How can I help her with this? She understood very well when Sherri explained that she always felt like she could do something better than she had. That was the problem she realized she herself had in the simulation. Zoey had a huge pride problem and wanted to do everything perfectly but knew through time that failure was part of the process. She really wanted to speak up and tell her how much she forgave her and loved her when she mentioned her self loathing and how she has been ripping herself to pieces about this morning but she knew Sherri needed to get all of this out.

While Sherri breathed several times Zoe brought her into a deep hug not daring to speak yet in case she had anything else to say. Sherri's smile after the hug lighted up her world but the next few sentences felt like Sherri broke her heart. She tried to kill herself? THIS... This was the most difficult for her to hear. Zoe started to cry with Sherri and she hugged Sherri hard never wanting to let go. "Can I speak now?" She asked softly. When she got her response she broke the hug but made sure to hold both of Sherri's hands. She allowed her tears to flow as she talked her potion now.

"First, I want to say thank you for having this discussion with me. Communication is key to any relationship and it means the world to me that you have opened up to me like this. Second, know that no matter what I love you and relationships don't HAVE to be perfect from the gecko. I will mess up, you will mess up, and that is okay. As long as we CHOOSE to be here side by side and work it out TOGETHER I am happy." She squeezed Sherri's hand and continued/ "So, let me make sure I got all this. Correct me if I am wrong anywhere. You aren't actually pushing me away. You just don't know how to handle specific situations. With the lego dilemma, you mainly would like to be left alone while playing with your legos and its nothing against me but just a way for you to decompress and help you with any rage you may be feeling inside. So, in the future, should I leave the room and let you be? I won't take anything personal now that you have talked to me about it. I also want to mention that I fucking love you and I dont WANT anyone else or any other person. Sherri... You were my first kiss. My first EVERYTHING so far honestly. I hadn't even cuddled with someone before you. I thought I was honestly asexual. YOU brought this out of me. YOU made me care and love someone. It's also okay that we didn't talk about this before. It is still SUPER early and I get it. I totally get it. We haven't even really talked about our pasts... And don't worry about this morning. I get it now and I 100% forgive you and love you."

She squeezed Sherri's hands and breathed in and out deeply before continuing. "About you... being suicidal... I need you to understand something. You are in this relationship now for the long run. The LONG RUN. You will soon become a Goddess and be immortal. Please, please Sherri give me the pleasure of spending my immortal years with you. If you die, so help me Hades, I will have to die with you because at this point I can't imagine my life with you. So get your shit together because I won't allow those demons to go near you again as much as I possibly can. I may not have magical powers like you but-"

She let go of one of Sherri's hands and dug deep into her pocket. She took out the Ametheyst necklace she had gotten Gideon to make for Sherri. "This necklace will protect you from harm, enhance your magical powers, stop you from getting addicted to any drugs, AND... Remind you of my love. Sherry Lewis you are not allowed to die. I will fight Crystal myself if I have to, to get your soul back or die trying. Understood?" She held on to both of her hands tightly as she stared into Sherri's eyes as serious as she could possibly be.

Lena was currently stuffing her face full of funnel cake while watching the people around the beach.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Nia swam back to shore. "well. No one saw that.... should've done a flip."

She decided she would go take a walk on the pier. There, she noticed a boy sitting on the edge reading a book titled How To Make Friends Well if anyone knows how to make friends it's me Nia thought to herself. This boy, at least from appearances, looked like a shut-in, introverted, bookworm who couldn't hold a conversation to save his life. Nia had pity on him. The red-haired heiress sat down next to him, watching the waves for a moment before she glanced over and read what chapter he was on. "Starting Conversations" "Hey, they usually start with a 'Hi' and then you exchange names. Hi, My name's Nia. A pleasure to meet you!"

ON THE PIER
Casey was about half way down the page when he felt footsteps aproaching him at an accelerated pace. Next thing he knew there was a girl sitting next to him. She started a conversation referencing the page he was reading. "Oh, um, hi. My name is Casey." He felt his face getting warmer as he didn't know what to say next. This girl, Nia, seemed quite nice and very cheerfull. Something about her made Casey's stomach churn. Perhaps it was just nerves.

Kera Aetos​

Kera chuckled slightly at Tera's response, though her expression hardly changed as she folded her arms over the girl. "I wish I could enjoy myself in such ways, no, my first responsibility is to make sure the day goes without issue." She noted coldly, quickly glancing over the other demigods, before back down toward Tera. "During that game I really believed you had drive, burning fury like I had read only in legend." Kera let out a short sigh, the disappointment was clear in her face, not that she expected an expression to move the girl in any way. "G... People like us can't have it both ways, too many rely on us to stay focused." She continued, staring into Tera's eyes, her deadpan expression turning serious. "Heed my warning, an Ares whom can barely control her loins, let alone her emotions, will have no place in Olympus." Kera's voice was calm, yet it was direct, clearly limiting itself between the two of them. "Your actions impact more than simply yourself." Kera sighed.

"what brings you around here?" she asked him. Then she noticed a familiar face standing nearby. "Hello, person!" She laid onto her back and looked up to where Alice was standing. Nia pointed at her while upsidedown "We go to the same 'school' right?! I haven't met you. What's your name?" Nia asked her, determined to eventually befriend everyone she went to school with.

Tera looked at Kera. "I can handle my own problems Kera. I'm a big girl the last time I check. So how about you go and and worry about yourself before you worry about anyone else." She said turning her back to Kera. She was done talking. Another word and Tera would fight her when they get back at GA. She laid back down and continued to sing. She wondered where Lena was. She could use someone to put some lotion on her back.

LAST NIGHT IN DORMS (Gideon and Harmonia)
Harmonia laughed shyly and caught a tear going down her cheek. When he mentioned an engagement ring she raised an eyebrow at him. "Woah kitty, calm down." She purred at him playfully. "Expect LOTS of crying honestly and a big hug and probably a kiss like this-" She put her arms around him, one in his hair pulling slightly, and passionately kissed him with everything she had. She then backed up a little out of breath. "So, are you good for the night or would you prefer some- company?" She stopped realizing what that sounded like and blushed a little "For the whole having new legs thing." She clarified.

LAST NIGHT IN DORMS (Gideon and Harmonia)
That kiss was much more intense than Gideon had been expecting. So much so that had to use his door to prop himself up. Gideon was literally starting to burn up after a kiss like that. Panting as he tried to control himself Gideon said, “ I’m.... I’m alright. There are a few diagnostics I need to run before tomorrow and... let’s wait till I recover before you want to run a stress test, alright dove?” Gideon cleared his throat and the flames smoldered. “ I’ll see you in the morning dove. Good night.” Gideon opened his door and leaned on the door frame and mustered a smile for her before heading to his bed.

Harmonia smiled at Gideon liking the fact that he heated up. Somehow, it didn’t bug her but actually kinda turned her on when he touched his hot hands on her. When she got close to his body as if he was burning up from a fever. She started walking to her own dorm that she shared with Kera while humming. She reached the dorms, feel asleep, and dreamt of Gideon.

The next morning she put on her bikini for whatever reason it was they needed one and a cover up. She headed to the cafeteria still humming and searching for Gideon. She felt like she was in the honeymoon stage of their relationship. She wanted to spend tons of time with him and make him smile as much as she possibly could. She wanted the other gods to stop looking at her and to focus on someone else. She was a happily taken woman. Her mom came in to the room and explained the portal situation and where it led and Harmonia didn’t know how she could be happier unless the portal took her into Gideons warm arms. She smiled and jumped in.
