[ Natalie has always been a private person. It might be obvious to those who are especially concerned about her that she hasn't been seen in a couple of days since the quest departure.

What a waste of her last drachma for the month, she thinks.

She doesn't want to bog anyone down with her troubles - there are things far bigger than her happening all around, and she is only one girl, one girl who likes to think she can handle it all, but in truth is unprepared for everything sent her way. The only person worse than Natalie at trying to fool the world is her own father, who she had spoken to via Iris Message just after Leo and the others left.

There are a few signs to her poor state, like two singed targets at the archery range and a trail of smoke that follows her when she finally emerges from her various treks around camp and away from everything else. She leans against a stone column outside of Hecate cabin and pulls her parka hood over her head, hugging herself around her empty stomach.

Your vision might go a little haywire if you approach her, with various dizzying effects. She's having a few control problems. ]

[ This is the last person you want to see right now but she knows she has to say something soon publicly, as much as she had apologized to Chiron and Mr. D for the mess she added to. ]

I'm sincerely sorry to everyone. You've all seen the announcement and I'm sure you all know who I am at this point and I know many of you will have angry words for me as soon as I finish this message. If that's the case then, um, I'd like to hear whatever you have to say in person. Of course, my preferences shouldn't change however you want to yell at me.

I'm no longer welcome in my first cabin and I know unclaimed demigods are meant to go to Hermes but I don't want to be where I'm unwanted. If I'm to stay here, I'd like to know if there's another place I can sleep.

[ Allison is still in the Big House having camped out in the infirmary and staying out of Artemis cabin for as long as she can. But she's a big girl. She can take care of herself, cabin or not. ]

I want to tell you all, especially the people I trained with or asked for supplies from - mostly Liz, Jehan, and Leo - that I had the best intentions to protect the camp when I spoke with all of you prior to the attacks.

[ Okay, Allison, you can do this. It's not right to keep this bottle up for so long. And don't cry. ]

I - I don't know what happened, maybe it's just being here with the other Norse kids, but I woke up last week feeling so ... angry about my mom dying over the summer. She was killed by wolves - we come from a family of wolf hunters. I was angry and frustrated that I wasn't able to do anything back then because I'd been kidnapped by the Red Room, and suddenly I'm having all these dreams about Skadi, and it feels like my family is falling apart without me somehow and I thought --

[ She shuts her eyes tightly for a moment. ] I don't know what I thought. I won't be making excuses because I know I'm in the wrong and I'm sorry to everyone, especially the people who tried to talk me down. I wanted the other hunters to get everyone out of the way so we could get to the wolves, but too many of them acted violently against anyone who wasn't mortal and they'll be punished accordingly.

So... thank you for listening.

Hi. Whoa, I forgot about what these IMs looked like.

[ There is a shy, smiling face in the Iris Message today. ] I don’t know if any of you remember me? I was here over the summer before, you know, things happened. My family needed me home for … for various reasons. We moved to this town where my m -- my dad lived before, I think, but I used to live in San Francisco. Anyway, I’m Allison. Allison Argent.

[ A pause as she leans on one of her suitcases in front of the Big House. ] I think I’m staying in the Artemis cabin again, so. I’ll be there if you need me.

Oh! By the way, I was told there are more Norse gods now? And that you guys have your own t-shirts? [ She's jealous! The satyr who greeted her made them sound awesome. ] Well, I’d like to meet you all. I’m Skadi, I guess I should have said earlier. [ It seems time to end the feed so she just gives a little shrug and a wave. ]

[A battered (and absurdly tall) young man appears through the mists, sporting a partly healed black eye and several cuts which give the impression he should be in the Big House recovering instead of talking to the other campers]

I go away for a few months and you guys decide to start crossing the pantheon streams. You better not have started just shoving them all in the Hermes cabin again, because I’m still coming to terms with the idea of having my own bunk and no five-hour lines for the shower.

[His expression softens slightly]

Hey, Hecate cabin, sorry for the long absence, but sound off so I know you’ve only been getting in the preapproved amount of trouble all right? None of you had better have challenged my ‘most buildings destroyed’ record, or I’m going to be very upset. [He frowns for a moment, then shakes his head and adds] Also, did we get any new siblings while I've been on my field trip?

Also, new kids…sorry you got stuck here at Camp The Gods Can’t Keep it in Their Pants. I'm not good with the false reassurances, so I'll leave it at I'll do my best to help track down the ones responsible.

[ooc: Harry's been away for the last few months on a quest, and he's recently gotten back. He really didn't have time during it to send back more than a basic 'still alive' message every once and a while, especially since the quest itself was fairly hush hush. He's got a basic idea of what's going on, but assume he doesn't know more than surface level until he gets filled in]

A raaaiiinbooow.

[Merlin's eyes are wide with exaggerated awe, mouth forming a little 'o' at the end of the word.]

I'm thinking black would be better. Goes with everything. It's slimming.

[Not that this skinny new boy needs slimming. Or anything that makes him paler than he already is. The only spots of color are two bright blue eyes, which are hidden behind a curtain of dark lashes every time he looks down.]

I'm Merlin, Cabin Twenty. I like long walks on the beach, puppies, and body parts preserved in pickle jars.

[He pops something into his mouth, candy or gum, chewing for a few seconds before glancing up again. There's mischief in his eyes, followed by a slow (somewhat shy) smile.]

I'm kidding. I hate the beach. Who needs all that sand between your toes and - David Copperfield.

[Yeah, that made no sense. Blame the sudden distraction that is Final Jeopardy.]
