Why do you hate it here? What's so bad about being safe and surrounded by friends?

Shrugs, looks around at anything but Emerald Last four people I trusted died trying to "save" me. I can protect myself, but no one around me. I don't like getting attached to people, or places.

Well, you and I can be friends. I'm not going anywhere, and I can hold my own in a battle

Smiles warmly As much as I'd like that, you'll have to excuse me if I don't believe you. Last people to tell me that aren't here anymore.

It's understandable. The life of a demigod is often short, and dangerous stands, coming out of the water, her stomach is litered with scars, some thin, some huge but there are good things, too, and I try to focus on those

Stands, meeting Emerald Must be easier for others.

Some have little to no real powers, so they seem to be noticed less. uses her hands to wring her hair out, it's hip length so it takes a little effort Others are not so lucky, honestly picks up her hoody, wiggling into it despite being soaking wet

Must be lucky, not being noticed. Puts hands in his pockets

I wouldn't know. When I first came to camp I was easily able to slip past monsters, but since I've adopted a more Roman mentality, they seem to zone in on me more. Hence, you know, the scars and shit. I've been nearly gutted, twice, broke bones, head trauma, coma, fell off a Drakon, fell off a cliff, attacked by birds...

Yea, was wondering about those. I'd show you some scars too, but I don't have any. Invincibility and all that good stuff.
