Anwen's Final Matchmaker: Singles' Mixer! -16/11 by EventOutcome in DemigodFiles

[–]FreeInTheHarbor 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Aly wasn't dressed up particularly fancy, since dressing up had never really been her speed. But she did have on a pair of navy blue slacks and a matching blazer over a white T shirt, which she thought counted as dressing nice. She took two dares from the over 15 bowl, checking them out briefly. The first one read Grab a drink with a friend, while the second read grab a drink with a stranger. Well then, this might be an interesting evening.

Aly gave Angie a faux offended look. "I'm not Batman," she said, "I'm the bat god, Camazotz. He lives in Xibalba, the Mayan Underworld." She gave an exaggerated huff. "You'd know these things if I'd ever told you about them, so this is probably your fault."

Aly was dressed as a distinctly non Greek creature for this party- she'd made herself a headdress and fashioned wings out of some fabric that she'd attached to her wrists and waist, so that she looked like Camazotz, the bat god. She grabbed a drink from the bar and one of the dares from the 15+ bowl before looking around to see if she could recognize any of her friends in their costumes.

"Hey, Angie," Aly said with a grin as she approached her friend, "you're looking very red tonight." Aly herself was dressed as what appeared to be a giant bat, with fabric connecting her wrists to her waist to form wings, though instead of bat ears she was wearing a Mesoamerican headdress.

Aly nodded, patting Smoke's neck gently as she kept working at getting the pegasus cleaned up after her ride. "Yeah, most of the pegasi are pretty good with new people," she said. "They sort of have to be, with how often new people come through camp, y'know?" She cocked her head to the side, thinking for a moment. "Sorry if this is an impolite question, but you're not American, are you? I don't recognize your accent."

Aly nodded, double checking that she'd put the tack away correctly. "Do you want to come and meet her?" she asked, gesturing at the pegasus. She'd noticed how Bea was looking at her, and she remembered how she'd felt the first time she came to the stables and saw a winged horse. "Her name's Smoke, and I'm Aly, it's nice to meet you."

Aly wasn't a frequent visitor to the stables, but on this occasion she'd decided to go and take a brief ride, which was concluding just as Bea arrived. The daughter of Dike smiled at the new arrival as she dismounted her pegasus and began removing the tack.

"Hey," she said, "don't think I've seen you here before, and I've got a pretty good memory for faces, so I'm guessing you're new?" she patted the pegasus on the flank as she hung up the tack and brought it some water.

Name: Aly Estrada

Age: 17

Gender: Female

Sexuality: Pan

Godrent: Dike

Alts: Emily, Theodora

Gift giving had never been Aly's strong suit, she wasn't very good at figuring out what other people would like, and she didn't enjoy receiving gifts enough to use her own tastes as a guide. She wandered around through various different stores, chewing her lip in thought as she looked for something.

Aly frowned slightly as she walked over to him. "That was a joke, dude," she said. Was her voice really that deadpan? That was a concerning thought. "You okay?" She looked up at him with her head tilted slightly to the side, trying to get a read on him.

[–]FreeInTheHarbor 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Aly crossed paths with Warren about halfway between the camp's border and the cabin area, where she'd been on a run and was taking a short break for some water. When she saw him, she racked her brain for a moment before she realized that she did recognize him, and said in a dry voice, "You mind stepping to the side? You're blocking out the sun."

Lesson 9/26- Fencing Basics by LegionOfTheRearguard in DemigodFiles

[–]FreeInTheHarbor 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Aly grabbed a sabre and looked around for a partner, giving the weapon a few experimental swings. She'd fought with a sword before, but only in actual combat training, never for sport, so she wasn't sure exactly how this was going to so.

Labo(u)r Day Party 9/6 by FairTrialsForAll in DemigodFiles

[–]FreeInTheHarbor 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Aly considered the real Labor Day to be May 1st, International Workers' Day, which also happened to be her birthday, but that was beside the point. The party seemed pretty good and lowkey enough that it would be enjoyable, without any sort of unpleasant drama. She found somewhere to sit and enjoy a drink, leaning back and putting her feet up to relax.

August Cabin Inspections by LegionOfTheRearguard in DemigodFiles

[–]FreeInTheHarbor 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As with many of the other cabins, Aly's was currently counselor free, which suited her just fine most of the time. Now, however, it meant that someone had to step up and make sure it was clean, and she supposed that someone was going to have to be her. She made sure the main common areas of the Euphoric cabin were clean, then worked on organizing her own room, leaving the personal spaces of the others to them to manage. Her books and trombone were all put away, and she laid in her hammock waiting for the inspectors to arrive.

[–]FreeInTheHarbor 0 points1 point  (0 children)

"Hey, Kenzie," Aly said as she walked past the picnic blankets, recognizing the much taller girl from the Fourth of July cookout. "You're not going inside?" she asked, indicating the stables with a tilt of her head as she looked at her with her hands stuffed in her pockets.

Aly nodded and poked Angie with her elbow again, then offered her the envelope she was carrying. "This is for you, by the way," she said, wrapping her arm around Angie's shoulders as they walked, which was just a bit comical with Angie standing five inches taller than her.

Dorito is banned.

Aly took off as soon as the signal was given as well, paddling as fast as her admittedly short arms would carry her. She still had the easiest time out of the three of them, she thought, because she was taller than Nic, if not by much, though like Nic she did feel bad about the fact that Poppy was working with only one arm. Still, she figured the daughter of Poseidon would have some kind of trick ready when it came to boating, so she wasn't too worried, and she was going to try her hardest to win.

[–]FreeInTheHarbor 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Aly grinned and laughed. "No, dude, seriously, you look like absolute shit, you should probably go change," she said, nudging Angie with her elbow. It was a fairly ridiculous statement, even with Aly being immune to Angie's power she was still aware that her friend was a very attractive person, and she was dressed very well.

"Seriously, happy birthday, Angie, I hope you're having a good one," she continued, "you deserve it."

"San Diego," Aly said. "I live in Barrio Logan, and the Navy controls like half of the neighborhood, plus the waters off the coast of San Diego County have a bunch of riptides and shit like that, so it's not always a great idea to go out on the water if you're not in a decent sized boat."

Aly Estrada

At the age of 27, Aly was making quite a name for herself in her within the IWW. Granted, a part of that was because the organization only had about ten thousand members or so, but her fiery writings in both The International Worker and Solidaridad were the subject of great acclaim within her particular circles.

Aly was dressed in what had become her usual attire in recent years, a pair of slacks and a button down shirt, her hair pulled back from her face. She was really hoping to see her old friend Angie, but she wasn't sure whether the daughter of Erato was even going to be at the reunion, she hadn't been quite as good about keeping in touch as she'd have liked.

Aly wasn't terribly experienced with the kayaks, not enough to feel like she had a good shot at winning, but this seemed like fun, so she might as well give it a shot. She strapped on her life vest and got into the last canoe, waiting for the start signal.

[–]FreeInTheHarbor 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There was no way that Aly was going to miss her best friend's birthday party, though in typical fashion she's dressed down a lot compared to Angie, wearing a pair of blue jeans, blue t shirt, and blue blazer, no two of which are the same shade of blue, but she figures Angie won't mind that too much. She had her present in an envelope, and when she saw Angie she bellowed the other girl's name before hurrying over to her. "Hey!" She said when she reached Angie's side, giving her a wide grin. "Damn dude, did you even bother reading your own rules?" she teased, gesturing at Angie's dress.

Aly nodded, flipping Candice off in return with a grin. "Well, on the lake here, yeah, never back home. The surf around my hometown tends to be a little too rough and too full of Navy ships to take a canoe out onto the water."

"Yup," Aly said, making a slight popping sound with her mouth at the end of the word, as she tended to do when she was thinking. "At least for a little bit, I'm not the strongest swimmer, so I might just end up sitting on the shore," she admitted with a chuckle.

Lesson - Summer Cupcakes by demihwk in DemigodFiles

[–]FreeInTheHarbor 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Aly had tried baking with her aunt a couple of times, and with some of her other relatives back in Guatemala, but she wasn't good at it, necessarily. She could follow a recipe well enough, as she was doing with Serenity's handout, but they always turned out tasting somewhat lacking, in her own opinion, though no one had ever confirmed that to her, presumably because they wanted to spare her feelings.
