    Mary was not usually taken with very superficial things, as a general rule. It's why lots of her half-siblings looked at her weird. Whereas most Aphrodite children were ultra-obsessed with their exterior looks, Mary worked more on how she was inside. She didn't want to be vain and shallow like her half-siblings, she wanted to have depth. Of course, this didn't mean she didn't care about her appearance. She was always impeccably dressed.

    Now that there was an carnival, Mary wanted to dress up. She had planned an outfit as soon as she found out about the event, making sure everything was perfect.

    Brushing off non-existent dust from her dress, she examined her appearance with a critical eye in her mirror. Her long, dark curls were tucked up into an intricate twist; her make-up was lightly but perfectly done. She straightened the ivory mask for the third time, before nodding determinedly at her reflection. As she exited her bunk, she patted her leg--her dagger was safely secured, it's sheath wrapped around her thigh. After all, she had to be prepared for anything, was what she always said. It was what had earned her the nickname 'Mary Poppins' among her cousins.

    Stepping out into the fresh air, she felt the excitement of the other campers like a buzz against her bare skin.

    VINYL RECORD



    vinyl didn't get the point of carnival. sure, it seemed like people had fun, but it mostly seemed trivial and frivolous and dumb. she didn't even have any fancy dresses to wear, and she certainly wouldn't ask for one to be made. all that was different was that she was wearing a mask. it was probably better suited for a child of hades or thantos or someone of the like, but vinyl didn't really mind; she liked it.

    it's easy to get lost in the swarms of people on all sides, dresses brushing against her ankles and laughter ringing in her ears. vinyl supposes her jeans and green sweater and bare feet don't exactly fit dress code. that's fine. vinyl isn't very fond of this dress code. all the dresses seem like they'd be restricting, too tight, making it difficult to breathe. vinyl may know that she's messed up, and she may know she'll never really get anywhere, but she quite enjoys breathing, you know.

    maybe at one time vinyl would have liked wearing a dress like the ones she sees, and, sure, maybe something does stir in her chest, but that doesn't mean it will happen. vinyl isn't a dress wearing girl. she gave up her right to a nice, easy life when she started running away, and these dresses represent everything she isn't.

    "The Convict"
    How he got there, he hadn't the slightest idea. Why he went dressed in a tuxedo of all things was even more of a mystery. His dark hair cropped into a mohawk and light eyes focused on the scenery in front of him set him apart from the campers that weren't trying to dress up for the carnival. The heavy chains on his steel toe black boots jangled as he glided around the carnival in search for something - anything - to capture his attention. The crowds that would normally make him shudder and avoid human contact actually seemed welcoming for once. Stilt-walkers, loud laughter, masks, huge ensembles reflecting the true personality of the person wearing them. It was refreshing seeing such oddity in this clique-like camp. He smiled at the people as he passed them, spinning to avoid a crash with a person carrying a tray of light green drinks served in tiny skinny glasses. He turned and continued on with his course, now sipping the drink (it tasted like some type of sour punch. like a bunch of liquefied Sour Patch Kids) from the glass, with his free hand in the back pocket of his jeans.

    The young man...Let's call him Chayton...passed by a young lady donned in what looked like a gown constructed of fluffy lace. A smile crept upon his face at the design (he noticed things like this) and tapped the lady quickly on the shoulder. He thought over his voice, the aura is words would create, and morphed it so that he sounded greatly different from his usual self.

    "You look very nice." His stronger, more confident whisper hissed in a hurry before disappearing into the crowd once again. He passed another girl - one that wasn't all dressed up except for a skeletal mask - and frowned. Why didn't she take advantage of this moment to be whatever she wanted? What was wrong with her? Chayton clucked his tongue. "Bare feet? If you were looking to make a statement, then you've succeeded." By the time the last of his sentence hissed over her shoulder, he now stood a good three meters away. He smirked once again and raised his glass towards the girl before sipping the liquid inside.

    VINYL RECORD



    vinyl whirls around, looking for whoever it was that whispered in her ear. she doesn't care about statements, doesn't care about this stupid carnival thing, anyways. she doesn't wear shoes because that's what she does. shoes are confining and annoying and vinyl doesn't like them. that's it. that's all there is, but of course someone's going to think she's making a "statement", because everyone at camp is just that stupid, apparently.

    she notices a boy raising a glass of...something in her direction. vinyl isn't sure she wants to know what kind of drinks they're serving tonight. throw some demigods in a kitchen and you'll never know what you'll find when you let them out. she scowls at the boy, shooting a glare across the courtyard before pulling a pack of cigarettes out of her pocket.

    shakily, vinyl lights a cigarette and places it between her lips, taking a deep drag. she knows it'll kill her someday. she knows there are people here who will have to suffer through the smoke. she knows that people are wearing flowing gowns that are possibly very flammable.

    but, see, vinyl had gotten to thinking, and. alexander could be here and she'd never know. maybe one of his girls was here, and she wouldn't know, because they'd be wearing a stupid mask. the only thing vinyl could do to defend herself was to wear a mask herself and give extra offerings at the mess hall each day, because alexander would end up with a black eye or a bloody nose and vinyl would end up with more chores, and that wouldn't be a happy situation for anyone.
