    A bronze-haired teenager was sitting in the middle of the amphitheater. He was staring at the blue and beautiful cloudy sky, his gaze unwavering. His green eyes were glazed over. He paid no heed to the sky, actually. It wasn't dark out. He wasn't star-gazing. Was it technically cloud-gazing or sky-gazing? Dally did not know. Dally rolled over, putting all his weight onto his shoulder. The boy brought his knees up to his chest, and wrapped his arms around. He kind of looked like a fetus, in this position. His back was flithy with all the dirt that he laid on, but Dally did not care.

    "Tick tock," Dally keep mumbling to himself, transfixed on those two words. He hated clocks. Time was ticking. "Tick tock," he repeated again, but now in a screeching voice. He wriggled around in his position, not caring if there were any campers to make fun of him. It was obvious this boy was absolute strange, even for a demigod.

      Ariadne wandered out to the amphitheater, lost in her thoughts. She looked down at her feet just in time to see some boy laying on the ground, muttering...What? "Tick-tock?" The girl had no clue what that meant, he was probably fooling around or something. His eyes were focused on the sky, and when she looked up, she realized that he wasn't focusing on anythin. No, this strange boy was merely spacing out. "Why are you out here laying on the ground? Are you that bored?" she asked, a hint of pensiveness in her voice. People here were crazy, no doubt about it. There were killers and psychopaths and sociopaths and all sorts of crazies, and this lad seemed like one of them. Not sure what to do, she sat down next to him and looked up at the sky. "I guess I can imagine why you're just staring up. It is really pretty today."

    Dally continued to lay down on the ground, before rolling onto his back again. A voice addressed him, which he was dimly aware of, and half-listened to. His hair was a but mussed from the dirt on the back. He then glanced at the girl who sat next to him before returning his gaze to the blue sky. "Tick," he replied. There was a orange band around his wrist. He managed to escape from his evil nurse for the time being. "It is," he started, before again repeating tick tock. "Nice."

      She nodded, causing her hair curls to bounce slightly. The amphitheater had some other people talking and fooling around in the stands. She saw their mouths moving and laughing, and even some few unintelligible noises. There the boy went again, with the "tick-tock". "Why do you say that, anyways?" she asked, the slightest condescending tone in her voice. It was silly, and Ariadne wasn't really one for "silly". Her eyes went down to the orange band on his wrist. "And what's that for? Did you just get out of a hospital or something?" The girl had a small pang of consciousness, she was being quite nosy, and they didn't even know each other. But hey, better for her to find out if this guy was a total nutjob now than later?

    "Tick, tock," Dally muttered again, to himself, a bit dazed from the girl's questions. She seemed very nosy to him. He folded his fingers and placed them over his stomach, continuing to stare at the pretty blue sky. He noticed a cloud that faintly resembled a fish. Well, the goldfish snack, that smiles back or whatever the commercial says. "Say what?" He mumbled, a faint of irritability in his voice was etched out. "I escaped from my nurse's hawkish gaze."

    The bronze haired man continued to stare at the sky, his chin jerked up. He seemed as if he was saying something completely normal, like, yeah i just ate spaghetti for dinner, but this one sentence gave a hint he was sick.

      Ariadne gave him a look that soon softened into a more pitying gaze. It sounded like something bad happened to him, even if his tone suggested otherwise. She moved her hands into her lap, and looked down at the ground, watching an ant scuttle by. "If you don't mind explaining, could you tell me what that means?" The ant was followed by two more, one with a crumb of bread or something hefted on its back. How did that old rhyme go? "The ants go marching one by one, hurrah, hurrah"? That sounded right.

    "What do you want me to explain? Hmmm?" Dally said, not noticing her look. He sat up, not bothering to dust off his back. His shoulders were slumped in a defeated stance. He rubbed his eyes even if there wasn't anything itching them. He just felt like rubbing his eyes. He put his hands on his lap, and turned his head sideways to look a the girl. The first thing he noticed were here wide pretty eyes. He liked her hair also. He reached for her hair, to feel how soft it is. He catched a lock, and studied it. "Pretty!"

      She was about to explain that she had no idea what the whole "hawk-nurse's gaze" thing meant when the odd lad grabbed her hair. Ariadne almost jumped back, but ended up shivering slightly instead. Hair pulling hurt, and with him having a rather large chunk of it, she would most definitely not like to tug at it. "I, uh..." she stuttered, still taken aback by his sudden movement. "Thank you...?" Her fingers drummed nervously on her leg, unsure what to do or say at this point. Might as well let the boy mess with her hair. It was a good feeling, she realized, having someone say that her hair was pretty for once. Most of the time, people complained it was too curly to play with, or too frizzled to properly run their fingers through, or just thought it was ugly. A small smile danced on her lips, quite pleased that someone finally found her hair to be pretty.
