♊️ Arc One: One Year On... ♊️
Camp Gemini Dining Hall ~ Starting Area


░▒▓ ♈ IMPORTANT NOTICE
This thread is a "starting area". This is one of the areas you may choose to start in during an Arc. You must start in one of these threads but you may choose any that you wish; you must post in one of these starting areas at least once before advancing to the Main Area.

░▒▓ ♈ SETTING BRIEF
The Camp Gemini Dining Hall is a perfect combination of Greek and Roman dining from the Magical Plates that can produce any sort of food that the diner wishes to the fact that there are air spirits whizzing around serving food and helping clean the dirty dishes. The Hall is split into two large sections; the first is a Greek Section that is an open air gazebo that is filled to the brim with long tables and vines crawling their way up the wooden frame. It looks kind of like a food court and it pleasantly allows the wind in.

The second section is undoubtedly Roman, it is inside with a decadent decor that includes large plush sofas and low down tables. Air Spirits whiz around serving food or picking up dishes and people often move from Sofa to Sofa to chat and socialize with their fellow Legion Members. The Roman side is modeled on the original Mess Principa but there is a fundamental difference now that the Roman Status Quo and the Greeks have had some minor influence: Where one sits in the Principa no longer matters and it is now WHO you sit with that garners social respect and marks one's place in the hierarchy.

Greek and Roman do mix freely in the Camp Gemini Dining Plaza despite the obvious division in terms of taste and culture. The Dining Hall is actually one of the only places in Camp Gemini where Roman and Greek Demigods come together in peace and equal standing.


░▒▓ ♈ SETTING CONDITIONS
It is early morning (around 8.00am) and most people have to make the choice between going and grabbing breakfast or squeezing in an extra training session. Even though the people who have come to the Dining Hall wanted a quieter start to their day there is an air of excitement and a quiet electricity coursing throughout the Hall...

People seem to be aware that something is going to happen today.

As it is indoors/ sheltered there is not a lot else to report other than the fact that there is a slight breeze rolling through the Hall. It seems to add to the growing tension and unrest.


░▒▓ ♈ IMPORTANT OOC DETAILS
You must start here and post at least once before moving towards the Main Thread and by extension the Event Thread. First, post here until a mod posts as an NPC summoning everyone to the Main Meeting Area. Once this has been done we can work on starting the Capture the Flag Event.

Have fun!

                                                  This place.... was INSANE.

                                                  Bryony looked around the dining hall with a wary eye. Okay so.. she might not be insane... but all this was.... too much. There were .. things... air thingys... air people. Or whatever they were, buzzing about cleaning like worker bees... Was this normal here? She made sure to keep out of their way as she moved further in, lured in by the scent of delicious breakfast and other food stuffs. Well... she was hungry, guess she could ignore all the strangeness for a bit and just focus on something she loved. Food.

                                                  Ah, there it was... the feeling of being lost. She eyed the seats and the people scattered about, she wondered if this was what normal people in schools felt when they entered the cafeteria? Where to sit? WHO to sit with? Bryony creeped along the edge of the dining hall, sitting where she spotted some grape vines. After all, was she not (apparently) that Wine-y God's... daughter.... which was a whole new level of awkward.

                                                  Sure her mother told her about it a long time ago.. but... it was one thing to dream about it and quite another to be smack dab in the middle of it all. She was still so new and bewildered to all this strangeness and excitement... she'd have to be a dullard to not see the wonder and amazement to be had here. Somehow... just somehow, it felt.... right. She wasn't sure what she was more disturbed by, this new fantastical place or that it felt ... familiar.

                                                  Bryony loaded her plate up and grabbed a cup of grape juice and sat back down, huddled by herself at a table. That's it, just eat and be quiet and observe.... maybe she wouldn't be pranked or something.. or whatever teens did at school or... camp.

Yawning as she walked into the dining hall, Tatiana made her way towards the area where food was served. She grabbed some waffles, fruits and chocolate spread. One the choice of her drink was picked up, she made her way towards a seat by the pillars at the right end of the hall.

Gently placing the tray on the table top, she took a seat in the middle. Before eating, Tatiana would lift one foot up at a time onto the edge of the seat to properly tie her black sneakers. Someone had woken her up roughly this morning. It turns out that Tatiana had slept in too late again. So, of course, she had to hurry and get dressed before grabbing some breakfast. Today was another busy day of training. Hurray...

The only things that she had been able to quickly grab was some grey shorts and deep blue, loose, button up t-shirt. It had similar material to that of a flannel shirt, so in the end she was kept warm enough. Well, she was going to do exercise later and with that, her body would sweat more than usual if she wore anything warmer.

Humming softly to herself, she grabbed the small container filled with chocolate spread and a plastic knife that way it was easier to scoop it onto her waffles. Before she would take a sip of her tea after a few bites, she blew on the liquid a bit making sure it was not piping hot anymore. Sipping today's choice of rose tea, she quietly sat at the table listening to the various conversations going on. Many people were buzzing about different things like always. It was nice to witness something like this every morning.

Despite the early hour and the campers still rubbing the sleep from their eyes, Jessie was already wide awake and raring to go. She jogged up to the mess hall ,fresh from her preliminary workout and clad in a pair of black yoga pants, a compression tank top and a pair of red and white running shoes all of which was capped off with s fine layer of sweat .
Close at her heels was what appeared to be a horse,an andalusian to those who knew their equine breeds, only made entirely out of metal with movements too smooth and fluid to be some cheap automaton. This thing had the balance, grace, flowing mane and mannerisms of the genuine article, it even seemed to breathe.
"Alright Pen," Jessie said as she took the horse by the reins dangling off the side of its neck "Let's grab some chow and I'll take you out for a nice run.Sound like a plan girl?" The horse nickered and dutifully followed behind it's master as she led it to the front entrance of the mess hall and gave her an affectionate pat on the snout before heading in herself. The other campers were annoyed ,to say the least , with Jessie's presence, here at camp she was notorious for ending conflicts with sometimes violent actions, couple that with the faintest whiff of her early morning workout smell, not many were happy to see her this early in the day. Still, despite her being short, standing at about 5'2 , nobody usually dared challenge her as she was deceptively strong and not hesitant to use her black belt level karate skills if push came to shove.

Jessie, in her usual fashion , loaded up a tray with eggs piled high, thick sausage links, several slices of toast and a tall glass of Orange juice. Protein and citrus, just how she ate at home to fuel her workout.

After dodging the air spirits flying about like gnats and glaring at the occasional camper , Jessie eventually found a table occupied by only one other camper
"Hey" she gave a little wave to the dark haired girl at the table as she took a seat a couple of spots away from her in case she wasn one of those personal space freaks
"You uh...mind if I sit here? Penny gets a little antsy if she can't see me and there's no better seats with a window." She jerked her thumb toward a nearby window where her metallic steed stood patiently outside as it watched her through the glass.



"Problem solved. Problem staying solved , Rangers lead the way"...

Finishing up her first round of the morning meal, Tatiana got up to grab some more food from the buffet. Swiftly moving around the air spirits, she would casually greet some with a smile and a quick nod hello. This time around, she grabbed some hash-browns, a couple of bagels with some cream cheese and scrabbled eggs. When the plate was full, she went back to the same table from before.

She looked up to see that someone had entered the hall, Jessie from what she remembered. She had only heard some things about her from other campers. Tatiana hadn't really payed attention to watch was said. Although one thing she knew was that the girl was pretty violent. Quietly observing her, she noticed something silver peak through the window. A nuzzle like object moved from side to side. An eyebrow raised out of curiosity, so the red head would moved to the side to get a better view out the window. It was a horse made of metal.

It wasn't often for Tatiana to witness such animals made only of metal. But, it was intriguing to see such a beautiful creature in person. Leaning back to a more comfortable position, she went back to her own business once Jessie had gone to sit with a brunette at a different table. The brunette must be new since Tatiana had not seen her before around the camp.

A light tap on the shoulder startled her. Looking up, it was one of her half-siblings that came to deliver her stuff. It was her sword sheathed in a dark leather sheath attached to a matching leather belt and her plain evergreen book bag. She thanked her half-sibling before they left and placed her belongings on the empty chair next to her. Her right hand unzipped the bag and slide in to retrieve a book she had been currently reading. The book was the History of the Peloponnesian War by Thucydides. Even though not many knew about this war, the tactics and reasoning behind its cause fascinated her. She was a little odd that way, but it didn't matter since everyone had their own tastes.
