This is the Hermes cabin, inhabited by the children of Hermes and the unclaimed demigods. The wooden floor is pale, yet full of texture. It is partially covered by a berber rug which is in need of a stretching. In an array of gloss and semi-gloss, shades of off-white cover the four walls and their baseboards speckled only by an occasional paint chip or faded fingerprint. Entire sections are hidden by nearly a dozen posters of varying sizes and content, mostly expressing the camper's political ideas, or tastes in music. Shelves protrude from a wall adjacent to the door- topped by a number of knickknacks and decorative accessories. Yet nothing obscures the whiteness of these walls quite as magnificently as the furnishings which fill the room.

Constantine stepped into the lifeless cabin, horrendous in appearance due to the seemingly constant wave of unclaimed demigods being brought to Camp Half-Blood and stuffed into the already crowded Hermes cabin. Today it was different. Things were still, peaceful. Since Luke had gone the life of the Hermes cabin seemed to have simply burned out.. Taking full advantange of this stillness Constantine rummaged through his trunk only to pull out a small ornate wooden box. Inside this small box held a 1787 Chateau Lafite, given to him from his grandfather many years ago. Sitting down in his leather wing back armchair he poured a small amount of wine into a silver chalice and sipped the bitter drink ever so slowly, reflecting on his current state in the world.

Suddenly There was a flash of Crimson Red light and out of it stood Dionysus Accompanied by many Gorgeous women
"GUHAHAHAHAHA............ I have arrived to spreed the joys of eternal bless and happiness "
All of the women began to giggle at his comment and he looked over to Constantine and grinned widely
"wine such as that should be shared Oh yes..."

Constantine sat up in his chair, intrigued by the man and the women. Then he turned his attention back to his wine, took yet another sip from the chalice, and set it on the rosewood table before turning his attention to the man yet again. He spoke aloud: "Of course, but first you must tell the year by which this wine was made. A task the God of Wine should find simple, yes"? With that Constantine took a crystal wine glass from the shelf, poured in it a miniscule amound of wine, and handed it to the God with much eloquence.

Dionysus only smelt the glass and smiled
"1787, good year for Chateau "
He then sipped the wine and let it sit on his palate for a while, severing the flavor before swallowing it . He then laughed and gave a hearty grin
" ah yes this is good stuff, You know i may be the god of wine but even i am blessed to have tasted such fine wine "

"I'm glad you approve Monsieur.. It was a gift from my grandfather you see, before he passed.." Saying this he took another sip of his wine, let it sit upon his delicate palate, and swallowed. Placing his chalice back upon the table he spoke aloud once again: "Please, excuse my foul manners, make yourself comfortable". Saying this he extended his arm towards a chair identical to his and smiled cautiously.

Dionysus Snapped his fingers and in a bright flash of crimson light Many women now filled the room all carrying grapes and barrels of wine.Dionysus sat on a throne that seemed to have appeared along with the women and he laughed and drank like there was no tomorrow and so did the women
"ahhh yes, you have good hospitality "

Gabriel went and seated herself on one of the chairs and looked at Constantine."So your Hemes son?" she asked pulling out the cork to her scotch bottle right before taking a swig, drinking it down slow.

Dionysus Looked at Constantine with a grin , he seemed to have something on his mind
"he's not trying to make you a bloody mailman is he? "
Dionysus meant nothing by his comment he was just having a little fun with him by teasing him

Gabriel rubbed scar before scratching the tip of her pointed ear."That's good" she said with a small smile before taking another swig of the scotch."Dionysus, do you mind?" she asked jestering towards one of his women.
