Lucian was left with a weird look on his face after what Charity did. Well really she didn't do anything, but that was the weird part. The girl noticed them sort of holding hands, but didn't do anything. Well she loosened her grip, but she did not pull away or anything. This left him beyond confused, but oddly content with the whole situation. This was before he thought back on things, but once again she shook him from those thoughts.
"You're right in your analysis" He told her. "Life, living things, even the air you breathe..it's all different depending on where you are" He continued, "but water..it truly is the most complex thing. From the ocean, to the sea..it's always different no matter how many times you're there". Lucian sounded as if he were in love with the ocean, but then shook his head as he looked right at her.
Charity seemed to be silent at the moment, so he pulled her up and out of the water with him. At that moment he let go of her hand, and sat in the grass awkward. "What..would you do if it were your last day here?" He asked, seriously wondering what anyone would do. |

Charity was curious as to why he had asked her that, as she decided to sit beside him in the grass, "Um..." She said, thinking about what she would do, "I would probably go and make a final impression on a few people. Maybe do something that is against the rules, and have fun."
She smiled, looking over at him as she hugged her legs close to her chest. "Why do you ask?" It was bothering her, knowing that someone was having a problem but at the same time not knowing why. She wanted so badly to figure out what the deal was - her mind was thinking over all possible explanations as she waited for an answer. Her hands moved to her hair, as she put it up into a messy bun.
Charity had always been good at reading people, even when she barely knew them. If it was a possible trait, she would assume she was the closest to mind reader than any other person in this camp. She continued to fix her hair, wondering still why he was asking her such strange questions.

Sighing, he simply looked at the girl beside of him. She was being so nice and caring, and it felt so wrong to be deceiving her as well. Having to deceive his best friend almost his entire life was hard enough. When she told him what she would do, he could not help but laugh and shake his head. "Yea, but breaking a rule here could result in some godly punishment" He joked, but also knew it to be true.
Lucian stared at her for a few minutes as she fixed her hair, and then towards the lake once more. "Life is like an ocean. Things happen and you just have to go with the flow" He explained, "even if the current separates you from those you care about". After saying that he went silent, and held out his hand while water began to swirl up from the lake.
The swirls of water acted like mini typhoons before merging up together into a ball of water. The small ball of water began to separate into tiny little droplets, before he allowed them all to fall like rain into the lake. It was like he was showing her what he felt, by using his abilities. Lucian turned his head towards her, and then laughed a bit.
"You probably think I'm being dramatic, huh?" He asked while closing his eyes and just sort of laying back. |

Charity watched him make his water art, amazed by the movements. She wished that she would understand her powers more, however she never really cared much about increasing her abilities. She was fine the way she was, which was always good enough for her.
She laid her head on her knees, and looked at him when he began to talk again, "Dramatic? No." She said, her smile had gone, and she looked like she was actually getting hungry for once as her tummy made a grumble noise, she wasn't ready to go yet though, as she lifted her head and began to look at the clouds. "Clouds are so funny, always up high, never falling down." she then laughed, "I love them. I like to make the move faster and shape them with the wind powers I have."
She looked down at him, "Do you wanna see my artistic ability?" She mocked herself, knowing that art was a hard subject.

Lucian began to blink as he noticed Charity watching him like she was. It was like he had done something amazing, when really he had done nothing at all. Well nothing special at least, considering the fact that this was like child's play to him. When she said that she didn't think he was dramatic, he rose an eyebrow. "Seriously? If someone else saw me do that, they'd think I had gone mental" He told her.
When Charity's stomach growled, his seemed to follow almost immediately. It seemed as though they were both hungry. "Bet you're wishing we didn't skip breakfast" He teased, before shaking his head. This was moments before she began to talk about clouds, which made him raise an eyebrow once more. Staring up at them, he took into consideration what she was tellign him.
"I suppose you're right..clouds are just as amazing as the ocean, except you can make shapes with them" He joked, "ooh really?". "I would love to, although..you gotta be careful not to shock someone again" He teased, poking the back of her head ever so gently. |

Charity agreed that she was wishing she would have eaten something, however she knew lunch would not be far off. "Alright," she said, about to work her magic on the clouds to play a game of pictionary. She twirled her fingers round and round, making a cloud spin and morph into whatever she wanted it to be, she tried her best to make it look like a dauphin, "What is that?" She questioned, hoping he could figure it out on his own.
She giggled, as she continued to make the others morph as well, soon she had a whole slue of dauphins in the sky, making them dance in the ocean like sky. "I think the sky is like an ocean, vast, complex. Two things couldn't be more similar in those ways." The dauphins danced, swimming with each other in different patterns, acting as if they were at a party - dancing as though they were impressing their mates.
She felt relaxed for a moment, as she continued to make them swirl around the sky. "I wonder if anyone is watching these clouds dance, other than us.." She wondered to herself, and said quietly allowed.

Raising an eyebrow, he tried to determine the figure in which she shaped the clouds. It took him about five or six minutes to determine that the shape resembles a dolphin, in some ways. The way she made them move through the sky as if they were in the ocean, let alone the dancing was quite impressive. It also proved her point, which made him laugh a bit.
"I guess you're right" He admitted, while watching her do her work. Within a few minutes the lunch bell, or whatever you would like to call it sounded. This made a smile form on his face as he slowly got up, and offered his hand to help her. "Guess it's time to eat" He said, "You're pretty impressive". Telling her that would probably make her too confident, but it was all too true. |

Charity's stomach growled once more as she took the hand he was offering to help her up with. She stood, and put her hand on her grumbling stomach, "I guess it IS time to eat." She said, laughing at her obnoxious stomach. She looked at the sky, as the clouds began to look their normal shape and such. She then picked her her shoes, put on the clothing she had taken off earlier, and started to head into the forest.
With Lucian close by, she continued through the forest, it would be a little while until they would reach the dining hall, and she didn't mind that as long as she could admire the woods. As she looked around, a few bits of hair were coming loose from her bun, which she barely noticed. Her hands laid at her side casually, and her mind began to wander.
She was quiet the whole walk back to camp, enjoying the serene atmosphere. She then looked back at Lucian, who was still there. With a smile, she turned back heading past her cabin and to the dining hall, letting Lucian catch up to be beside her if he wanted. Once they both got to the dining hall, she paused, looking in the windows of the side walls. There weren't to many people there, since it had taken them a while to get there.
She was grateful for that, sometimes when she would eat in the hall, she would get headaches from all of the commotion. "Hmm..." She admired the food of the few students that were in the hall, "It looks like we are having something rather yummy." She decided to leave it to Lucian's imagination to discover what it was, and she was exited to see what he would say, "What is the lunch for today Lucian?"
She stood still, only moving her hands which were fondling each other as they laced. She was probably one of the most bizarre persons in the camp, always doing random things that made people wonder. She was unpredictable, like the storms, and like the wind - even if the whether men try to smite her. She occasionally pushed up with her toes, going from short to tall on her tips of her shoes. Charity looked at peace.

As Nico was in the shower Ethan finished drying off and layed on his bed. Nico and him were close...very close. Closer than Ethan was with anyone else in the camp and probably closer than he would be with anyone else ever. He knew that it was not accepted to be gay but the more he thought about it he couldn't come up with any other explanation than that he liked Nico. He knew it was wrong and he knew that he could never tell Nico. He didn't know how Nico would respond to that but he was positive that it would never work. He knew that they would be great friends even through out death and that he would not risk ruining his relationship with his best friend.
With that Nico walked out of the bathroom his jet black hair dripping drops of steaming hot water onto his nicely defined pecks and running down to dampen the black towel situated snugly around his waist. The little man standing there still steaming from the hot water that was bouncing off his skin while he washed all the dirt and grime off his body. "You ready to go?" Nico asked.
"Yeah," Ethan responded, "as soon as you are."
"Alright let me get dressed then we can head to dinner." And with that he walked to his bed and unwrapped the towel and finished drying himself off. He got dressed as Ethan shifted his eyes elsewhere awkwardly.
Once Nico was dressed they walked to the dining hall in silence both still feeling awkward from the scene in the cabin. When they arrived at lunch they got their food they, made their sacrifices and sat and ate. They were talking now but quietly as they were still feeling a little awkward about everything. They decided that they would wait for Lucian and his lady friend and sat there waiting for them. Their conversation kept getting louder and more comfortable as the time went on. They had been waiting for such a long time that they were two of the only people left in the hall. They continued to wait for Lu and friend.

Lucien was pretty silent their entire walk to the dining hall as well. His mind was lingering over a few hundred things at the moment. In reality it was just over almost everything that had happened in the past, and the idiotic things he was doing today. If I was smart I would just leave.. He thought to himself, but founding himself staring at the girl in front of him once again.
Remembering what she had told him, he simply smiled and shrugged it all off. Maybe he would have a reason to stay after all, even with the risk. Clearing his throat, he just closed his eyes instead of looking around. The way Charity questioned him about what was for lunch made him laugh. Then again she probably thought he would know, or wouldn't.
With his eyes closed he simply breathed in and sniffed at the same time. Meat..bred..potatoes. "I believe we're having steak, potatoes regular and mashed..and some kind of green thing" He was able to spit out, while opening his eyes. With that he made his way over to the food, but only got two steaks. One of them he scraped into the fire once arriving outside the dining hall.
This had to be the most awkward thing..they had a dining hall, but the older campers never ate there. They ate around the fire, for some odd reason. Once arriving there he noticed Ethan and Nico, and slowly sat near them. Not too close but not too far, so that they could maintain some form of communication. "Hey..so, you actually like this stuff?" He joked. |
