A Time For Reflection (Tag)

[Deleted]

Apollina walked to the amphitheater. This time was so foreign, and she just wanted some peace and quiet to get things mulled over. She was, unfortunately, dressed in a weird outfit which consisted of something that she'd never seen before. The outfit, which was a simple t-shirt and jeans, was constricting, but she was thankful the Aphrodite cabin let her keep the sandels. The chiton had also been kept; Apollina couldn't bear to let herself get rid of one of the only things that came from her time. 

She took a seat and glanced at it. The amphitheater looked similar to one in Athens, though she had only been to one once and that was a few years ago...or rather, thousands of years ago. She put her head in her hands, despite being aware that if anyone caught her, she'd likely be in enormous trouble. After all, women weren't allowed to leave their homes often, and especially for a woman of her stature. She was only allowed to leave the home on various occasions, none of which included being unattended.

Masin made it a point to know who everyone in camp was. Being one of the rare children of Zeus and the cabin leader, she felt that it was her place to do so. When she saw someone she didn't recognize she introduced herself quickly. At this moment that happened when she saw a girl sitting in the amphitheater. She smiled, her best political smile, moving toward her. "Hi," she called from a few spaces away, moving toward her. "I'm Masin. Are you new?" her voice was sweet as syrup, calm yet stern, charismatic as always. She reached the girl and smiled, standing in front of her. "I'm from the Zeus cabin," she explained.

Apollina didn't even know where to begin. One minute, she was back in her time staring at Zeus as he shoved her into the building, and then the next, she was in a weird new world with moving horseless carriages, people dressed in indecent clothing, and no one who knew what she was saying. Apollina didn't even know what happened to her home, to her polis, to her country, to her parents, her friends, and everyone back in her own time. Her husband likely found another wife to take her place, and seeing as had given him no heirs yet, he likely hadn't thought of her once ever since she disappeared. 

She jerked her head up from her hands as she heard a female voice say hello. "Hello," she stated when the other girl was in front of her. "I'm Apollina Eleutherios," she introduced herself, briefly realizing that with her husband dead, her last name would've been dropped, and she would've resumed introducing herself as Apollina Palaokostas. "Yes," she answered coldly once she heard that the girl was the offspring of the very god who had thrown her in that wretched place as her world, and her place, slipped away through the cracks of time.

Masin nodded as the girl gave her name, waiting for her next question to be answered in turn. When it was, it was a short 'yes' and Masin refrained from rolling her eyes. Was she going to have to ask all the questions? Plus, the girl did seem rather cold in her response and Masin sighed, slowly sitting down beside the girl, but about a foot and a half away or so. "Well, my father can be quite.... the interesting fellow," she started. She actually rather obsessed over Zeus, but she found that most Demi-Gods weren't the same way over their Godly parents. "What about your Olympian heritage? Did you get one of the crazies?" she said with a soft chuckle. She wasn't the type to use the word 'crazies', but she had to feel this girl out...

"If you mean interesting like throwing me in the Lotus Casino because of what my mother did, than yes, I suppose your father is interesting. Though, that seems more cruel to me," she stated, not aware of what the consequences what might before she said it. Oh gods! What if Zeus heard?! What if she was punished for saying such a thing? How could she have been so silly as to say such a thing! "Crazies?" She asked, testing the word out. It felt weird on her tongue, and she wondered what it meant. Maybe like those people who weren't quite right? That there was something off about them? "My mother's Calypso," she stated, ignoring the whole 'Olympian' part. Really though? Surely there minor gods children here? It was just rude to assume something like that about someone. Calypso was the daughter of a Titan, but what she knew about her, Apollina wasn't sure if she was considered a minor goddess or a titaness.

Masins eyes widened as the girl explained her situation and how her father had to do with it, it seemed. She cleared her throat, "awe. Yes... he can hold a grudge," but then again, so could she. Rather skillfully and subtly in fact, unlike her father. "At least you're here now, though! That's what counts," she added with that cheery grin. Then the girl repeated 'crazies' and Masin realized she had no idea what time period she was from. Masin but down on her lip apologetically, "Sorry, I should have asked. When were you born?" she chimed in, right after Apollina spoke about who her mother was and Masin nodded, "awe, so not Olympian. That's all right," Masin thought that was pretty strange, actually, but she wasn't necessarily a Demi-God Purist or anything... she just didn't know if the Titans could be trusted. Granted, Calypso was now off with a boy from their camp so, maybe she wasn't all that bad. "I think we consider her a Minor Goddess here, though, because she's been around lately," she added... unsure if the girl knew of her mothers situation.

(I totally though it was your turn for the longest time! I'm sorry!)
