"Yeah, it's the same back at Camp Half-Blood. There are so many training sessions with the influx of new campers."

"Well, I'm having fun! Also, what do you think for shoes? Just the regular silver flats, or the silver flats with the jewel cluster on the toe?"

"Whichever you prefer. I don't think I'd be able to walk in heels, so I'll go with flats too. But maybe just black ones."

"Flats are underrated," Cher began, going with the jeweled ones. "I mean, as long as they don't rub up against your heels. They're stylish, easy to walk in, they come in all different colors, and they go with every- OH ALSO HAIR. What are you doing with yours?"

"I was hoping you could tell me," Andrea admitted. "Because I have no idea."

"Well, if you're looking for more elegant and subtle, maybe an updo. If you wanted to leave your hair down, you could do it wavy or curly or straight. Your dress doesn't have too many decorations, so you could do just about anything!"

"Well, my hair's already wavy enough as it is... It might be too short for an updo though."

"If you wanted to leave it as is you could do that too! I'm gonna brush mine out so that it's wavy." Cher studied the dress for a moment, then smiled. "You know, I've forgotten how much fun it is to do stuff like this. When I lived in Santa Monica, I used to sew a little bit. I watched a lot of Project Runway too. I dropped it when I came to Camp Jupiter because I just didn't have time. It's been a while since any of the camps have engaged in anything normal like this."

"Yeah, sometimes I forget what average life is like," she laughed. "Back in Oregon, we'd just go on hikes pretty much whenever we wanted. We'd walk for miles...have lunch by some stream or another. Sometimes we'd go into Portland. I always loved Powell's... Honestly, I could spend all day among those books. It was nice with just me, my dad, and my brother. I haven't seen them since I moved to Camp Half-Blood..."

"Yeah. It's hard leaving your family. I miss by mom and my sister a lot... but I'm glad I'm here. It doesn't help being surrounded by danger when recklessness is your hamartia, but I guess I've gained a little bit of responsibility." Suddenly, one of the clocks on the wall struck. It was 6:00. "OH GOD WE'VE GOT TO GO GET READY OR WE'RE GONNA BE LATE C'MON LET'S GO BACK TO THE BARRACK."

"Oh! Yeah, I'm coming Cher!" she called, grabbing a pair of flats and hurrying after her friend.

"Excited?" Cher asked once they got to the barracks. "I'm so glad everything came together okay. I was really stressed, but I've got a good feeling about this. You know, as long as the monsters don't try anything funny!" She joked, toying with the charm bracelet on her wrist. She wouldn't dare take it off though. After what happened the last time I left my sword at home...

"Yeah, I'm definitely keeping my dagger handy. Just in case. But yes, I'm excited," Andrea said, smiling. "I'm going to go change. I should only be a couple minutes."

"Same!" Cher retreated into her bathroom and came out a moment later, putting on her earrings. "When do you have to meet Lukas?"

Andrea appeared from the walk-in closet, adjusting her dress. "I'm not sure. We didn't really decide on when and where we would meet. I guess I'll just have to find him when we get there."

"Pretty!" Cher commented as she put the finishing touch to her outfit on- a faux diamond hair clip. "I'm ready to go! You?"

"Yeah, I'm ready," she replied, slipping on the flats. "Thanks for helping me pick out everything, by the way. You know, Andersen, Lukas, and I might stay here for a couple days after tonight. It would be nice to catch up a bit more."

"Totally! You don't totally get to know a person during a quest until you really talk to them." She sighed, recalling memories of the Empire State Building. Monsters, Blood, and... "Man, that was one whacked up quest."

"Sure was. I honestly can't believe I'm still alive." She trailed off before letting out a short laugh. "I still have the scar. I'm not sure if it's ever going to go away either."

"It left a whole lot of scars, in more way then one." She bit her lip at the onslaught of memories. Suddenly, she burst out laughing. "Hey, I just had a thought. Could you imagine the guys doing this too? Getting together and gossiping and picking out tie colors or whatever?"
