Silvia laughed and followed Ray. Janet pointed after them and shouted, "go, my noble steed! Follow them!" to Austyn.

Austyn follows them, laughing at Janet's comment. He soon catches up to them and trots steadily onward. Ray grins at Silvia and Austyn and Janet because smiles make the world a brighter place.

(Sorry, had to go to a dentists appointment to get braces on again)

Janet broke down giggling, doing her best to hug Austyn. Silvia shakes her head. "I'm not used to seeing half siblings get along so well," she said with a chuckle. "My half siblings- the mortal ones, I mean- never liked me, so we fought a lot. It's nice to see half siblings who don't hate each other."

(ahh, that sounds painful. It's okay, I hope you're feeling at least decent.)

(Haha, I'm unable to chew anything since there's a thing on the back of one of my top teeth to make sure I don't bite my braces off. XD my teeth are rebelling already. And right before lunchtime! XD)

"I don't have siblings." Ray says. "I think siblings would be a nice thing to have."
Austyn gallops around, making galloping and horse noises. Occasionally he'd stop abruptly and then change direction and head back to the group.

(that's horrible- eehhhh, I'm supposed to get braces soon D: now I'm s c a r e d)

Silvia stared intensely at him. "No. Gods, no, it's horrible!" She shook her head, visibly shuddering.

(One side of me: No! Don't be afraid! Other side of me: Yes, be afraid. Be very much afraid.)

"Really?" He asks her suspiciously. "It seems fun to have someone to play with and go on adventures with. And ask that."

(fjlkerhg I guess I'll be afraid then-!)

Silvia shrugged again. "Well, for me it was pretty horrible. Like I said, my siblings never liked me, so we were never close. You should ask Micah, he has a younger brother and an older sister."

(Nooooooo! Other side of me, how dare you! It's not that bad after the first few days.)

Ray nods, "Well I guess some siblings are good and some aren't that great." He couldn't wait to get to Micah.

(Well I'm an overly anxious little rat, so I'll be scared either way-)

Silvia nodded. She looked around the archery range, then pointed to a spot a little bit away from them, where Micah was sitting braiding flowers together and watching the other demigods practice. "There he is! Hey Micah!"
Micah looked up and smiled, waving at them.

"Micah!!!" Ray says and runs over, making sure to give the archer's space and stay behind the line of fire. He almost tackles Micah with a hug before thinking better of it and slowing down a but before giving him a hug. Because hugs are the best thing in the world and no one can get enough hugs.

(Sounds like myself.)
