halfbloodhill | Action: Cabin Dark and Creepy

*Hades Cabin is even less inviting than normal. That's because Bay is outright livid at her little talk with Sadie "Perfectly Perfect in Every Way and Humble Too" Kane. Whatever that girl said made Bay want to trick that girl into a long walk off the short pier in the lake. Every. Time. She talks and talks and talks about how much she's done, and how much she's not biased when she's as bad as everyone else in the camp. She doesn't realize how much her wisdom makes her a fool. It reminds Bay of someone... someone she hates.*

*So Bay's anger? Has kinda brought to life some of her more fun dreams, the happy little slice of Norse mythology she can remember: Hel, the Underworld, her domain, her namesake. It... made her feel a little better, which itself scared her. False spirits moved around, dead to decay and disease, no rightful death among them, no proper death, no Viking death. The normally black interior of the cabin was bone white to match the Hall that Hel called home.*

*So, yeah, moody Underworld God is moody.*

Then what do you want?

*If this were some other point on some other day, she'd be a bit less... absolutely completely abrasive. But Bay was in a mood because Sadie ticked her off, and for some reason she got nervous around the other Norse. Some old pain that she couldn't place.*

If the decor didn't suggest it, I'm kinda in a mood right now.

To talk...or maybe to listen.

[Karrin glances around again.]

Yeah, sort of noticed that. Any particular reason for the Halloween decorations coming back up?

Talking to Little Miss Houdini generally leaves me in a sour mood... well, part of me anyway. I dunno why I'm this angry though.

This is... what she wants to calm down. A little slice of home.

I don't think you were the only one on that count. She's not exactly the most tactful of people, that's for sure.

[Karrin hadn't been angry at Sadie's proclamations, but she could certainly see why others might be. It took Karrin a moment to realize Bay meant "Hel" in this case. Oh, right, that would explain the cheery decorations then.]

Ah.

She doesn't seem to understand that defusing a bomb takes subtler means than a sledgehammer. And is surprised when it blows up in her face.

*Bay glanced at Karrin for a moment, she was also a Norse God... but she seemed to be a bit more together than Bay. Of course, Bay was probably the only one that called the realms of the dead home.*

Do you... react to things, and not know why? Just, a feeling in your gut that this is wrong for you, or right, or... anything?

Well, given enough times she'll learn....we just have to hope she learns before she winds up blowing up the entire camp.

[Karrin really hopes she does learn. She's actually starting to tolerate this place.

Her next question took her a bit off guard. Karrin hadn't been expecting it so she has to pause and consider this for a second. She rubs at her arm self consciously.]

I don't know about reacting to things...but I've had dreams, I guess. Feelings too...like I'm supposed to be elsewhere or at least not...here.

[She bit her lip, glancing skyward.]

I think the last time I had a distinct reaction was when Hera switched around everyone's powers. I felt overly violated and like I wanted to go right up to her and kick her face in. I didn't think I'd be so attached to my abilities, so overall I don't think that was the problem...I think it was just the idea that she could change things for me so easily when I wasn't even a part of her little gathering of demigods.

That's pretty much what my concern was. I'm just very diplomatic.

*Bay watched Karrin try to put the question into some sort of context. She wanted to know if this was her burden, or an aspect they all shared. Maybe she got really lucky and got the moodiest of Norse Gods. ...She was the God of the Underworld, there was a good chance she had a chip on her shoulder too. Sadly, what Karrin named didn't feel quite as... it was less of the same, there but not to the degree.*

...These are my dreams, I see the Underworld. But, there are certain people in the camp that just... disturb me. It's about the only way I know where the line is between my feelings and her's. Sadie and Annabeth both, I don't know, they act so damn smug in their knowledge and I just...

End up calming myself- her- whatever, with the Underworld.

Disturb you?

[Karrin had felt nothing like that. Especially not around the people Bay listed. Granted, she hadn't exactly felt at ease here but that was less to do with the people and more to do with the situation and knowledge of what they were. But, she was coming to terms with that. Karrin tried to think of something she had read that would explain it, but nothing came to mind. Maybe something to do with Odin? He was kind of a knowledge god...but it wasn't like he was that closely tied to Isis or Athena...was he?

It could be, it was all she had.]

I haven't felt that. Maybe you got more of Hel than I got of Bryhildr. We're only supposed to have portions of them, right?

Or she's just moodier than Bryhildr. Which makes me wonder what it'll be like when I'm more complete.

So... I guess I really lucked out huh?

Possibly. My guess would be she runs more towards passion, anger, battle rage...you're typical warrior maiden I think.

[She was leader of the Valkyries and instead of bemoan her fate, she fought for the man she loved and even threw herself on his funeral pyre. Karrin didn't think she did depression...at least not in the same way that Hel seemed to handle it.]

I guess luck is the nicer way to put it.
