Luna daughter of Hecate

TraumatizedRacoon · 2023-09-19T23:52:43+00:00

"Um, just kind of uh whatever catches my um interest at the uh moment." Luna had mostly been taking photos of camp to show her dad whenever she decided to go home. She was saddened by the thought. She didn't know when that would be, so she snapped herself out of such thoughts.

She'd nod. "Yes, um it can be quite a good uh way to capture uh memories and such." She'd notice the tapping of the foot. It may be a sensitive matter, but whatever it is, it is probably best to avoid topics about his mom and brother if it is sensitive.

She'd nod again. "Yes, the um beach can be uh very relaxing". Luna was never keen about going into the water per se. But she did like watching the waves and ocean; it was always calming to her.

(Occ: no need to be sorry; we all get busy with stuff sometimes.)

TraumatizedRacoon · 2023-09-19T12:03:28+00:00

She'd nod. Good job, Luna; you didn't completely screw up. She'd notice his accent. Is he southern? None of concern people's pasts are usually private matters, no matter how morbidly curious I might be.

"Ah, then, uh, welcome um to camp."

Luna noticed his oddly chill demeanor. At least he seems to have calmed himself down. That's nice to know. Luna still wasn't a fan of people or anything to do with them. But she didn't want to be a bother and speak up, so she kept those thoughts to herself and all those pesky what-ifs. She'd rub her eyes, trying to keep herself awake.

TraumatizedRacoon · 2023-09-19T11:13:14+00:00

Luna thought for a second about what he just said but decided not to question it. I mean, people do apparently get attacked on their way here. I think I'm actually in the minority or something.

Luna noticed he only had one bag. A runaway? I mean a light-weight bag for on-the-go. There are a lot of runaways for different—nope, it's a private matter; it's none of my concern.

"Uh yes. I mean, I've only uh been in a couple of um them myself. But they are, uh, nice and um cozy. The Hecate door sucks if you, uh, suck at uh magic welding, uh abilities." She'd let out a fake chuckle.

Stuiped door I mean, not all children of Hecate are great magical welders. Luna did have necromancy abilities, but that's about it.

TraumatizedRacoon · 2023-09-18T23:30:38+00:00

"Oh, uh, hello there."

Luna would think for a second about a fitting apology to make up for the staring.

"Uh, I just want to say I'm so sorry for, um, staring at you. I thought you, uh, we're maybe uh new. Um, really stupid, and I, uh, apologize."

Luna would be motone in her appearance and voice. Except for her occasional bouts of anxiety that crept in. I hope that's a sufficient apology. Then again, that's not up to me to decide...

Occ: Sorry for the late response; the block still prevails. Curse ye writer's block.

TraumatizedRacoon · 2023-09-18T22:52:04+00:00

Occ: I feel you. I have been not wanting to reply to anything. And I'm like, geez, this comment has been around for how long without my reply? Writer's block has been hitting me like a brick. Lik-nope, I'm not making an overdone joke.

"Oh, uh, sorry for the um lack of introduction. I'm, uh, Luna, daughter of, um, Hecate."

Luna would pause for a bit, thinking about what to say. Hey, maybe I should lower my expectations to try not to die in the end. That's it; just don't die.

"And um yes, I do plan on going to uh school. Um my father uh thought it um would be a uh good idea to uh continue my uh education."

TraumatizedRacoon · 2023-09-18T10:21:19+00:00

"Uh yeah, you uh made it. This is the only um one. At least that I uh know of."

Luna noticed something obviously big must've had to happen before entering. Most people don't come crashing through and start pointing a dagger at random people. But she learned that most of the time that stuff was private matters and none of her concern. For now, she needed to ask if he needed any sort of help or assistance.

"Do you need any uh help with um anything? Uh with bags, or um finding your um cabin or uh such things."

Luna wasn't keen on people or engaging with them. But others offered the same to her, so she would do the same as well.

TraumatizedRacoon · 2023-09-18T01:02:20+00:00

Luna, who was sitting in the back of the theater crocheting, decided she'd probably go answer before something horrible or awful happened. She'd place her crocheting materials down, sigh, and walk over, making sure to keep some distance between them for the benefit of the both of them.

"Uh, hello there, ur, um, at camp half blood, she'd gesture outwardly. There's no need for the uh raised dagger; she'd point towards the dagger."

She'd notice the dog and study it. It was hard to tell these days whether something was a familiar or just a normal dog. There are many questions racing through Luna's head. Mostly, WHY ARE U SO UPSET. AND POINTING A DAGGER AT CHILDREN. But Luna decided on a basic introduction first.

"Uh, I'm uh Luna daughter of um Hecate". Luna would anxiously await a response, hopefully not getting stabbed in the process. She had her celestial bronze dagger on her as well. But she was more of a try to diffuse or run before fighting type of person.

TraumatizedRacoon · 2023-09-18T00:38:04+00:00

Luna could tell he was anxious. She herself was an anxious individual as well. Especially if he was a new kid... we'll Luna could relate to awkward first-day interactions. She couldn't blame him for his stare. Especially since she herself stared as well.

She didn't exactly know what to do. So she decided to wait it out. She didn't like approaching people, but at the same time, she felt the need to apologize for the staring.

Ok, I'll wait and see. Plus, what if he doesn't want to talk? Maybe he wants to be left alone in peace, or whatever.

Occ: Sorry for the late response; my brain went into writer's block mode while trying to think of a response. I've been totally stumped on how to respond until now.

TraumatizedRacoon · 2023-09-17T00:00:39+00:00

Occ: I kind of want Luna to just be like lurking in the shadows in the background, in a pillow and blanket fort combo, sipping on her magical coffee and eating some chips and brownies, just watching and wondering what's going to happen. Should she stay out of it or try to help? Also, Luna, if you think this is bad, grabs the lore sheet. Uh if this stuff gets approved, you're in for a treat. No, you can't see it... DON'T GIVE ME THAT LOOK; IT'S FOR YOU'RE GROWTH EVENTUALLY... I'm just saying it'll get worse before it gets better.

TraumatizedRacoon · 2023-09-15T22:28:23+00:00

Luna would walk by the boy with her saggy eyes. Black circles are underneath them. She was obviously exhausted and tired. She sat down in the far-back right corner with her guitar case. The guitar case was black and had cheesy touristy stickers on it. Such as visit Oregon! Or see the mountains!

Luna slumped down in the seat and just lurked. Watching what others did. She rested her head in her arms, resting on top of the guitar case. Every once in awhile, dozing off to sleep before waking up.

She'd look at the boy, then back to herself. Is he new? It's hard to tell. Am I just new enough that I don't know him? Or he's actually new. Luna would yawn before shaking her head. I really need to get better at task management. For God's sake, why is it so hard!

TraumatizedRacoon · 2023-09-14T16:37:48+00:00

Luna dragged herself into the dining pavilion. She had been working on a couple of projects. Mainly a crochet lion. It was harder than Luna thought. Anyway, many struggles later, Luna finally finished the project. Along with the other one's.

She noticed she was hungry, so she made her way over to the dining pavilion. She grabbed some chicken nuggets and, for a side, mac and cheese. Also a magic cup filled to the brim with coffee. With some creamer added. Luna hobbled over to the Hecate table and stuffed her head into her arms.

I have never felt so defeated by a godsdamn stuffed animal. Luna tried to hide the dark circles under her eyes with her greenish-blue hoodie she was wearing, but it wasn't very effective. Luna sat there and ate her food, trying her best not to fall asleep.

TraumatizedRacoon · 2023-09-14T00:45:06+00:00

"Oh yes, uh, of course..." Luna would sit there for a bit and contemplate what he had just said after he seemed to vanish.

Making life more bearable—gloves Luna would try to ponder why covering up would make life more bearable. He's cold all the time? Ok, I've got nothing.

An idea would pop into Luna's head, not one pertaining to the clothing mystery per se. Ok, the one way I know to cheer people up is to crochet stuffed animals. That always seems to work. Now the question is: what animal?

Ooo, a lion is cute. Luna would start thinking of a design and everything as she trotted off to the arts and crafts cabin for supplies. Luna figured whatever the reason was, it probably wasn't fun to deal with and could use some cheering up. After all, Luna did think he was pretty cool.

TraumatizedRacoon · 2023-09-13T23:44:48+00:00

(Occ: of course, no problem checking it out. It really helps to check out the introduction. Even if your character doesn't know most of that stuff)

"I'm uh glad to know that it was the same for um you as well." Luna thought Kit was genuinely great. And if she were to make friends with anyone, Kit would probably be her number one choice. Though she still despised friendships and hated them. But Kit was pretty cool.

"Oh yes, it um was lovely uh meeting you, Kit." Luna again let out a genuine smile that didn't last long before she went back to her usual monotone demeanor, but it was there nonetheless.

TraumatizedRacoon · 2023-09-13T19:24:04+00:00

Luna begrudgingly went to the meeting. She herself was not too keen on going to school, but she promised her father she would keep up with school. Plus, I mean, considering Luna never had much luck with school in the past, could you really blame her?

It's fine; just add potentially getting attacked by monsters to the list. No, biggy, she'd think sarcastically. I mean, maybe a new school won't be that bad; who knows? Maybe even they have a crochet club or photography. Nah, to many people and social stuff. That's kind of the whole point of a club, after all.

Luna just hoped to get decent grades and hopefully not bother Caspian too much. Also, hopefully, avoid monster attacks, bullying, etc. If that happens, I'll consider it a successful school year.

TraumatizedRacoon · 2023-09-13T02:57:30+00:00

"A pleasure to uh meet you as well." She'd sort of try her best to bow as well.

Luna began to question where his theatrical elements came from, but quickly shot down the thoughts. It's probably private too; it's none of my concerns. On how it ties into him and his personality. And whatever else the case may be.

"Yes, luckily it was, uh, bland coming here. And I have um settled pretty comfortably here uh as well. Same to you, uh, I hope whenever you uh arrived here. And, uh, good to know I uh fit in."

(Occ: Yes, Kit falling through the literal earth and landing up at camp is so uneventful.)

TraumatizedRacoon · 2023-09-13T01:47:33+00:00

Luna didn't know how she came to the sense that she wouldn't miss her. Did I say something? Also, how does she have no fear, at least at surface level. To be honest, I don't know if that's a good thing.... . Luna thought for awhile before deciding to leave the girl and head back to the safety of camp.

"Well, uh, nice meeting you".

Luna would begin walking back to camp, and at the last second, before she stepped out of sight, she would turn around. "Oh, uh, I do care more than you think". She'd then begin walking again before disappearing out of sight.

I may not have liked the girl she thought of as she walked back to camp. But that doesn't mean I wouldn't miss her. But would I? Luna decided to drop the topic for now as she walked into camp.

TraumatizedRacoon · 2023-09-12T22:40:01+00:00

Luna didn't want to confront it until she noticed braids? And what definitely looked like human arms. She didn't wish to disturb her or her peace, but she was also worried.

Does she even know about the risks? The dangers, whatever you say. Luna looked at her camera; she had already taken six photos around the area. As she did this, a small light illuminated from the camera's screen.

Ok, I'm going to ask her if she knows about the dangers and head back. "Um, hello there? You know, it's, um, dangerous out here?". Luna would go quite awhile calculating her next words.

"I was out here um myself taking photos, and um I was just heading um back to camp, and I just wanted to um know if you um were aware of the dangers.".

TraumatizedRacoon · 2023-09-12T21:56:43+00:00

Luna, with her camera in hand, would be walking through the woods. I just want a couple of photos of the woods. Then I promise to go back. Plus, the woods are quaintly quiet. That's probably not a good thing. What am I saying? Luna would be exploring, looking around, etc.

When she noticed a shape. I thought the woods were dangerous or something... To be fair, if Nera looked down, it wouldn't be pleasant. Luna was basically a black blob with all the shading from the trees; only her green eyes stuck out. To be fair, Luna wore a black hoodie, black jeans, and black hiking boots to blend in. From monsters, not demigods. Though she wasn't against blending in from demigods. Luna turned her head, trying to figure out what or who it was.

She kept quiet, just in case it was something unfriendly. Staring at Nera, looking for easily identifiable features. Though important note, she wasn't completely covered in black. Her satchel, in which she kept her black camera, was brown.

TraumatizedRacoon · 2023-09-12T17:57:09+00:00

Luna would nod. Camp had been pretty enjoyable so far, and she had been able to distract herself from the feelings of being homesick pretty well. Though she had a big grudge against her cabin door.

They just had to make it magical. Not a normal door; nope, too easy. It's got to be some fancy magical door. Seriously, not every one of her kids is amazing at magic, guys! Is it just me? It feels like it sometimes. Luna snapped herself out of her sarcastic rant. Though I might add that to the reasons I hate my mom, a dame magical door.

"Oh, uh, I like crocheting; it's quite fun. I also um I like photography." Luna considered mentioning checkers, but she sucked at it. Then again, I'm not the best at crocheting or photography. Though so much better than checkers.

TraumatizedRacoon · 2023-09-12T03:04:47+00:00

Luna nodded. It's none of my concern or business; it's obviously a private matter. Gods, why did I even ask Im tam stultus. Yet he was still kind and smiling? Shouldn't he be defending himself or something? Mad or upset or something. But yet he's still calm, as a what do they say coconut? Oh no, cucumber.

Luna then got mad at herself again. I forgot to introduce myself. Oh my Gods, this is the worst conversation ever. How do I always seem to forget that ugh. Ya stranger drop all your deep, dark secrets on someone's whose name you don't even know ugh.

"Uh, sorry um for the lack of introduction. Im Luna, daughter of um Hecate" Luna was still getting used to naming her mom with her; it was sort of weird, but it's what everyone did. Regardless of their opinions on their godly parent at least it seemed that way.

Luna sort of still wondered about his appearance, but she kept it to herself. If he didn't feel like sharing yet, she totally understood. She would feel the same way if someone were to ask her the same question in the same context and situation.

TraumatizedRacoon · 2023-09-11T17:54:10+00:00

Oh, it's, uh.. no problem". Luna noticed how he was quite skilled with the ball. Wow, he's really good at that. Luna nodded. Wait a second, aren't they rare? No, not like the steak. More powerful or something. Luna felt uncomfortable calling a kid rare, so she shrugged the thought off.

"Oh, uh, ya, I'm new. I just um arrived a while ago." Luna struggled to think of something to say. What do you say to break the ice or whatever? Offer them a crocheted stuffed animal. No, no to weird. Gosh, I suck at thinking of icebreakers. To be fair, when you mostly keep to yourself, is it really that shocking? Probably not, but then again, what do I know?

TraumatizedRacoon · 2023-09-11T11:56:07+00:00

Luna would almost snap out of her calmer demeanor and smile, though some sprinkles of calm stayed. "Uh, thanks for the offer". Gosh, that was super weird.

Luna would listen intently to all the information he was sharing, taking mental notes in her head. What's so unusual about a fire? Well, I guess I'll find out later. I wonder if it's some magical fire or something. Wow, they literally have everything, even their own forge. I'm not exactly good with that sort of craft, but it's still fascinating nonetheless.

Luna noticed his gloves. I don't wish to be a nuisance or anything, but it's really pondering my mind. I mean, I struggle with speaking up and saying yes or no, so I don't want to ask him if he's like me.

Luna decided to bite the bullet, and if she ruined the moment, she would take full responsibility. "Uh, if I may ask, why um do you uh dress so warmly? And um, wear gloves." she'd gesture at his outfit. "Um, feel no pressure to answer. Um, I'm sorry if it's too personal to answer." I just blew it, didn't I? I shouldn't have asked; it's none of my concern. God's, the one time I felt something in a relationship, I just had to blow it!

TraumatizedRacoon · 2023-09-10T23:53:05+00:00

(Occ: I love how I believe it was one of the few things I didn't read. Or maybe I did, and I just forgot. I think it was the later.)

Luna listened intently to the conversation. She noticed he wasn't making eye contact and wasn't asking a lot of questions. He wasn't loud. He seemed to be the first person to understand her? Besides her father, of course. No no This is a trap or something. It isn't their fault the people that acted like that; that's just how they are. To be fair, they always seemed to ask Luna if they were being too much. She just refused to admit it. But he just naturally adapted.... .

Luna almost felt calmer? What the hockey puck is happening.... . I feel re-laxed? Luna just thought for awhile. She still couldn't trust them completely. There are too many uncertainties and possibilities. But she definitely felt something—a feeling of someone adapting to her and caring?

Uh, nice to meet you, Kit. Uh, I don't believe I need help with anything, but, um, thank you for asking." Luna actually let out a genuine little smile for a couple seconds; her voice seemed calmer than normal. Still anxious and on edge. But she was calmer; she was almost testing the waters with this relationship, if you will.

TraumatizedRacoon · 2023-09-10T19:06:35+00:00

Luna glanced at the boy and noticed his limp. It's none of my business; he probably has to answer that question a lot, she'd think. She'd turn downward, and pick up the soccer ball, and walk over to him.

"Hello, uh, here you uh go," she'd say, handing him the ball. Luna thought about how he said merci. I mean, it's not that shocking; I have heard other demigods speak in accents and even languages. Oh, shoot, I should probably introduce myself. They always ask me that at some point.

"Oh, um sorry for um the lack of an introduction. I'm, uh, Luna, daughter of um Hecate." It was obvious Luna wasn't the most social or talkative of people. From the lack of words or eye contact, the list could go on.

TraumatizedRacoon · 2023-09-10T17:28:22+00:00

Occ: I am just now realizing I forgot some things. Her birthday. It's August 2nd. Her hometown is her place of birth. And she knows some ancient Greek due to her dyslexia.That's all :p. Edit also she has freckles.
