Welcome to Gaia! ::

Mina goes to kiss Alex' left cheek, being grateful that he was here, as she then said to Alex,"We're working to help Zizya out, right now, as the gods wish to begin the claiming as soon as they can manage it," as Mina points to the flocks of differing birds in the area, and then look at Erythia, in the meantime, before looking back at Zizya.
Mina then adds,"I doubt it was because of anything bad you may have done, if that's what you are thinking, Alex," as Mina goes to subtly swing her hips in an alluring manner at Alex and Erythia, at the same time, while still looking at Zizya and the birds.
Intending to hide the fact that she secretly misses her boyfriend and legitimate his half-sister back at the convoy, Mina goes to pull a rule to herself from her ancestress, Queen Sparta, and then admit,"Its not that i like you all in that manner or anything, is it?" as Mina fears she is following the rules of Queen Sparta, all wrong.

Suspecting that another cousin was in the area, except this one might be someone who has more power than could be properly calculated, right now, Mina goes to change her eye colors from Sapphire Blue to Jade Green, just because she can do that, and she felt bored and awaited when the gods would start the claiming on Zizya,'I am actually glad that mother, who may be 2nd in beauty only to Hera, if i recall correctly from what my paternal grandfather told my father, could alter her looks and my siblings and i inherited that capability to varying extents, otherwise, i fear i might be driven insane,' as Mina goes to try not to come across as too urged to sleep in the waters, otherwise she'll miss out on Zizya being claimed.

"I take it as you just arrived, did you not?" Mina had to ask verbally, because she would rather not risk scaring the guy off by using powers from her father's side of the family to send in thought messages with her mind, as already privately wondering where her cousin Cross is, she goes to say to herself,'Its an Alvizu thing if we can send in messages with thoughts without direct connections with the Lord Ancestor Zeus' eldest daughter....WE KNOW, ITS COMPLICATED!!!!' as Mina didn't feel like trying to go over the basic storyline with how her family was capable of such odd things, right now, because its enough that her father's branch of the Alvizu line inherited the prowess of the likes of Herakles, himself, its best not to squander that much off.

'Where is Joanna Chase of the Hecate cabin, when you need her, right now?I already do not know what is going on, with Lou Ellen, the cabin head, but Lou's not telling me exactly everything going on, i feel!Odd, it feels as if the 2 years of not being around at the camp much, after the war caught up with me and bit me in my butt worse than just when that idiot Drew managed to get mother's cabin reputation to go to hell,' as Mina felt upset with herself, in matters like these,'Still, the convoy needed me, as i fear for my father's life, these days, and if anything bad happens to the convoy, not only will i not forgive myself, but i will request the consent to go on a killing streak upon those who brought the ills upon the convoy, but first get the instigators to cross their emotional despair event horizons, the points of no reasonable return,' as Mina felt like she has to be defensive for her family, or they will all be dead, by now, as she tries to hide her inner self anger by carefully shaking the stranger's hand, hoping to not come across as hostile, as she does so.
"You probably didn't come from the convoy my father and sisters tend to head, right?" Mina asked in a rational tone, suspecting that the guy could be an ally the camp needs, right about now, especially given all that uncertainty when it comes to the new guys like Jason Grace,'But at least Piper McLean is trying to help fix mother's cabin, yet i can't help but feel that so much more must be done before i can find it safe to follow her orders, in combat,' as Mina fears the worst in life after hearing about Tartarus' suddenly restoring enemy armies faster than said armies can be wiped out.

'By Herakles and by my ancestral cousin, Lord Zeus, how did Mike know about that?' as Mina goes to attempt to be a mental smiler and try to hide the fact that she is unaware of the potential scale in which he was aware of it, as Mina goes to make a mental check to her thoughts to see if it was from her mind that those secrets were being revealed.
"You're welcome to the camp, i am sure that if Piper were not so busy in thinking of other matters in her mind while she trains my other siblings outside my father's convoy to fend for themselves better, that she or cousin Annabeth Chase could show you around, and that's assuming that she isn't too busy in regards to what happened to Cousin Percy of the Poseidon cabin, who's been missing for months, on end," Mina said outloud, feeling concerned for Annabeth and the others of Camp Half-Blood, then thinking to herself, 'It feels like enough has happened for me to feel urged to destroy every possible source of the problems pervading us, inside and out, were it not for the fact that i fear for the lives of Zory and Ashely Zaranad back in my father's group,' as already, Mina felt that her killer instincts that she tried to repress, the same ones she inherited from her father's ancestral roots, were starting to surface in her eyes, slowly but surely, but she had no intentions on taking it out on any of her family in the beach.
"My father started a convoy, the moment he brought my two full sisters and myself to Camp Half-Blood, with only our family servants among us, there might have been an intent to send in a Satyr, but i am unaware of what became of the ones they might have sent out," Mina admits, as she then adds,"In order to help raise the odds of survival for outside children of the gods who aren't in the camp, we try to make sure they came with us to the convoy to raise their odds whenever the Satyrs couldn't be able to find any of them, and i swear by the River Styx that my father's convoy mean no harm to the camp, you may take them as allies, since father had Chiron's consent to help with transportations," as Mina felt she had to say it at once, or else her inner troubles may begin to consume her, at some point or another.

'Calm down, Mina, you need to regain your composure quickly, you're doing a disservice to your mother, and irrational people tend to have their good looks hampered severely when they don't gain back their composure in time,' Mina thought to herself, as she goes to hide the fact she was sweating as if she almost had a fever of a sort.
"My bad, in regards to the past," Mina said with complete honesty, recalling too well that the Salem Witch Trials were generally bad ideas, to begin with, seeing as how corrupt people were behind most of those trials, and the few that did turn out to be justifiable are literally too few and far between," Mina admits, suddenly being able to slowly regain her composure, as she then adds,"I dare not ask the veterans of the Hecate cabin in general on how they feel on such matters, their mother was the Witch-Goddess, after all, and i still worry about Erythia Spell and Joanna of the Hecate cabins, and that's not taking to full regards of Lou Ellen and her own plans on such regards, either," as Mina had to confess to her personal concerns, seeing as how her father's family was also involved with magic to varying extents, as well.
Mina looked around at everyone else, as she then raises her arms to the others,"This is Alex, this is Erythia of the Hecate cabin, and that's Zizya, who's being claimed as we speak, but she seems to be in a trance of some sort or another while claiming is being done," as Mina noted that some of the birds has arrived to Mike, wondering if these birds are connected in some way or another with his own mother.

Mina goes to watch, thinking to herself,'I already feared that too many people want to manipulate either my family or that of the Zaranads for ill ends, including the magi-terrorists who got Officer Pedro Luis slain in combat, especially the likes of Andrei Alechiv, the legal and biological father of Zory,' as Mina felt a deep pinch of sadness in trying not to think too hard about how for 2 years, she believed her male lover to have been slain in a lethal ambush, while Mina's family was away from him and his half-sister.
Mina still hasn't quite managed to shake off the pang of inner guilt completely, as so, she then said,"The birds of the gods already wish to grant aid to any and all newcomers to the camp, for many goals, helping with the claiming processes just so happens to be one of them, Mike," as Mina smiled in a meaningful manner to everyone in the area, as a white dove and a sparrow came to each of her shoulders, while they watch the birds come to everyone in here.
"I wonder where is Joanna Chase?Is she working out some plans with Lou Ellen on what's going on, lately?" Mina had to ask aloud, because its been years since she last had a reasonable conversation with her, as of late, even before finding out whom her mother was.

One could tell that this music was on Mina's mind, for some reason or another, after realizing that Joanna has returned, "Joanna, you're back, as well?" as Mina wanted to go and grant Joanna a hug worthy of her paternal ancestor, Herakles/Hercules, at this moment.
"So where have you been, as of late?Lou Ellen may or may not have worried about you, if the lack of her appearances outside of the cabin of the lady Hekate is of any note," Mina asked and notes on what was going on that she just found out, recalling that she is just as guilty to her own mother's cabin, since she's been gone for 2 years, actually.
