Cool how it's the second week of school and half the teachers are already out with fairy curses. I guess this is easier than public school. Even though I'm fine. Not that I'm complaining but it feels like with the number of people they screwed it would have been easier to just get everyone instead of picking and choosing.

Alright. So this is a quick census. How many people among us are affected by these fairy curses, particularly in a way that would impede teaching or attending classes in the traditional sense.

Bear in mind, we're an accessible school with creative amplification and remote broadcasting capabilities.

Did you make it back alright?

I've always got Aegis and my bow and knives to hand anyway but we should make sure we all raid the armory and see if we've got anything else useful. Nico, your sword should work on fairies, right? Stygian iron and cold iron have got to be pretty similar.

Who needs a weapon made of cold iron? I will charge at cost. Don't worry if you can't pay me back now, we can work something out later. I don't think this will work but if it will make you feel more safe...

I feel like watching other people play quidditch, may be as helpful as me actually practicing quidditch at this point. I'm certain that point will pass pretty quickly.

So, Tomorrow. Go Team, or something like that? I've never really done the sports thing.

Who the hell buys the entire stock of carrot cake from the nearest bakery?!

This place is weird. Since when do rabbits in the wild have zero fear of human beings like the squirrels in Union Square? What's next? Do I turn into a cartoon rabbit now?

No more Bethie and no more summer. Today officially sucks.

Weasley Wizards Wheezes is hiring for product development and shop work. Experience with muggles and muggle technology preferred. Magic is optional.

Those interested bring ideas for adaptation of cartoon products from a few weeks back. There is also a prank component to the interview.

We're down a player. We don't have a captain.

Maybe we just sit the season out.

Okay, new outfit is a little weird, but overall not a bad look for me.

( not an ic cut )

It's been a really short summer and I'm not sure how I feel about how close going back to school is right now. At least my ever-continuous project of rebuilding the Argo II can be used for school grades, though. And all my other random projects.

Can we go search through junkyards a bit? I don't really need anything, but I want to see if there's anything to find in them.

[Demigods]

I'm going to be out for a bit, but I'll be back later. I have a few things to do.

So, they tell me that fighting in armies and killing monsters since I was four doesn't not constitute an ability to take care of myself. So, uh, help? I need an adult, apparently. Before I fry every computer in this building.

[Demigods]

We're going to help get people to safety because there's something crazy going on in town with a dragon or something.

>> If you got anything weird from those blackberries, Alice Quinn thinks she's got magic that will fix it.

PSA: If you find a patch of wild blackberries, don't eat them.

There's a blackberry patch near the back of Miller's Wood and they're incredible. I might actually get sick if I eat all of these though. Anyone want some? I'm just hanging out at Camp Half-blood.

Send me back. I don't even have my axe here.

Henry and I are no longer dating, just FYI.

No, it wasn't my idea; no, I'm not okay; no, I don't need anything except for the archery ground to be cleared.

*not picky, can be anyone if you want

The heat is unbearable here. It's as if the sun is angry with us.

Is the sun angry with us? Did any of you do something to it?

Should I create thunderstorms? The clouds they bring will give us relief. I'll keep them going for the next few days or until one of the Ororos makes me stop.

Tomorrow's the Summer Solstice. The longest day of the year from sunrise to sunset.

We'll be hosting a bonfire at Camp Half-blood starting around five pm.

Host a bonfire?

You know, my dad doesn't really look like that, but sometimes, the Internet still has some pretty sweet fanart. The shirt, though, is incredibly accurate. Happy Father's Day, dad. I guess, thanks for not honoring the Big Three Prophecy pact and having me anyway. Not like Zeus could keep it in his pants anyway

How good is this survival training probably going to be compared to camp?

It's always been part of the Xavier school to teach us how to use our powers — either to make sure we don't hurt people or that we can protect people. We haven't really been doing that here. That doesn't seem to be an option anymore. There's the whole thing where portals keep opening up over the town and now across the world, and when that happens our children may get separated or want to contribute when we get attacked by krakens and robots and giant spiders and pirates.

During the course of the year, we've been asked to offer defense and survival classes. We've taken this to heart and starting next fall, we will officially be offering those courses. That doesn't help during the summer, so with that said, the Ellie Phimister School is offering a summer program to those 18 and under, Monday through Friday, which will focus on physical fitness, first aid, combat, and survival basics in new environments each week. The classes will start July 2 and end on August 17. They are not mandatory, and students can arrive or leave when suits their (or their guardian's) schedule. This is strictly for those of you who want to learn how best to survive in some of the various situations against some of the potential bad guys who might pop through the portal.

The course will include virtual training in the X-Mansion's Danger Room, under supervision, with field trips as well. Lunch will be provided. The tentative schedule for the course can be found here.

If you'd like to sign up for this program, please contact us on this post. We will need written permission from your guardian, as survival and combat scenarios do have risks. If you are interested in volunteering to assist with the course, please contact us here as well. We will have interviews to find those who are best qualified in a variety of ways.



And as a side note, anyone who would like to have dance lessons over the summer, let me know. Of all ages, not just under 18 year olds. I'll be hosting classes at the school for Beginners, Intermediates, and Advanced dancers. The classes would be twice a week for each. 6-8pm Monday (Beginners), Wednesday (Intermediate), Friday (Advanced). Then 10am-12pm (Advanced), 1-3pm (Intermediate), 3-5pm (Beginners) on Saturday.

Okay, I was going to propose we have some big Summer Vacations Woot! sort of BBQ at some point next month but I figured we might as well do something with food sometime this coming weekend. All of us. Especially now that Thalia is back.

Saturday or Sunday? We can do BBQ in the evening or have some early brunch thing. I can bribe Bucky to make pancakes. :) :)

Dammit. How long was I gone on this end?

I don't know what any of you with SO's might be planning for the Valentine's Day, but would anyone free be up for another ladies' night? There has to be something on this giant ship that won't be too schmoopy and coupley that we can all go to.

I don't like this place.

[Women of Cair Paravel]

I know I'm relatively new to the house and all, even with our newer arrivals, but Reyna asking about us all helping out for her wedding got me thinking. Would anyone be interested in doing a ladies' night sort of thing? Either here or going out could work. I think it could be fun.
