Behind Blurry Eyes [ Literate ] [ Reserved to Crispy, Angel, and TCD ]

I sighed, sitting on a top limb of what I supposed was an oak tree. It felt a bit wobbly, but fine for the most part. I swung my legs back and forth, my eyes fogging from the humidity. "Crap..." I muttered, rubbing my eyes. Checking the large pocketwatch I carried, it only read 4:42 P.M. Pretty good, if you ask me. I rubbed my eyes once again. "I gotta find eye dr-OOOO-" I was cut off as the branch gave in, throwing me towards the ground. What is it with me and falling from trees...?

Ava was bored and walking through when she heard a rustling in one of the trees. A few seconds later someone, a boy who Ava vaugly recoginised from the Apollo cabin, fell from it. "Are you alright?" She asked, a vaugely amused espression on her face. She diden't help him up.

I see a boy fall from the trees. I run toward him. "Are you okay?" I ask helping him from the ground.

I skipped happily through the forest, weaving in and out of trees. My curly red hair swung behind me. I stopped a moment as something caught my attention. It sounded like someone yelled. I frowned, glancing around curiously. My curiosity did always seem to get the better of me. 'Wonder what it could be...' I thought. With a mischievous grin I changed direction, heading toward the sound. "Anyone here?" I called loudly, my voice echoing throughout the forest. I always was able to be loud...I saw someone on the ground and I covered a small snicker. I walked towards him and the other girl with a wide grin. "Did gravity pull you down?" I asked, obviously amused.

//Sorry, pinklover12, but this topic is only open to the people mentioned in the title.

I stood up, rocking back and forth a bit. "Y-Yeah...I'm fine," I said, shaking my head. "It's not the first time..." I must have been an odd site. I was rather tall, my hair most likely messy, ear pierced, and stunned eyes, all dazed. Composing myself together, I stretched my arms out. "And trust me, it's not the hardest I've ever fallen...oh, thanks for helping me up," I said jokingly.

"My pleasure." Ava joked in return, laughing. "And I think trees have it out for you, then. I prefer grape vines, personally." She continued and then paused. "I don't know either of you, what're your names? I'm Ava, Dionysus Cabin."

I laughed lightly, rolling my eyes a bit. "You're quite welcome. I know how helpful I can be," I said sarcastically. I frowned, noticing his dazed look. I opened my mouth to speak, but soon I found it better not to ask. I shook my head and brushed my hair from my face. "Just a note of advice...next time, don't sit on a branch that's going to break," I suggested, a fake serious look on my face. I then turned to Ava with a friendly smile. "Penelope, Daughter of Zeus," I said. My signature silver sparks spun around my hand and I grinned.

"I'm Apollo, Matthew cabin..." I shook my head. "Sorry, I'm still a bit lightheaded. "I'm Matthew, son of Apollo," I greeted, getting it right. "And...er you?" I asked, looking at the other girl. "Daughter of Zeus?" I asked. "Impressive..." I rubbed my eyes. "Phew..." I muttered, still a bit dizzy and awkward.

(( ENTER CRISPY BACON. YOU GUYS ARE THE FIRST TO MEET ONE OF MY NEW CHARACTERS. FEEL SPECIAL, VERY SPECIAL. 8D ))

Hearing a soft thud in another part of the forest, I scowled and looked up from the rock I was sitting on before smiling brightly, standing up and heading over to where the noise was. Seemed like a boy had fallen. People were so idiotic. And pitiful. It was rather entertaining really. Beaming at them, I extended a hand to the boy. Not like I wanted to help him. It was probably his fault he ended up there in the first place. Because he had probably done something stupid like people often did.

I frowned as I watched him, the sparks on my hand disappearing. My brow furrowed a bit and I leaned against a tree, crossing my arms. "Are you sure you're okay?" I asked, obviously skeptical of his well being. I glanced over at Ava a moment before turning my attention back to Matthew, my stormy blue eyes studying him curiously.
ooc: I do feel special x3

~ D; So mean. xD

I stood on my own finally, brushing myself off. "Oh, hey," I said, looking at the other girl. "You are...?" I waited for my answer, silently cursing the tree I had climbed. Curse you, mighty oak! I bit at my lip nervously, and looked at the other two briefly.

(( Vi is a mean person, SO DEAL WITH IT. xD ))

Oh, okay. Fighting the urge to scowl and punch him or something, I took back my hand. He didn't deserve my help anyways. Frowning lightly, I gestured to my mouth before forming an X with my arms. If they had more brain cells than I estimated they had, they would understand. Then I tipped my head to the side and formed a few words in sign language, hoping that they understood that I was asking if they understood sign language. That would make it so much easier.

"I really don't think you should be allowed around trees." Ava observed, looking at Matthew. She also leaned up against a tree and, as she did, thin grape vines started wrapping thier way around the trunk. She turned her attention to the newcomer and waited expectantly for her name. When all she got was sign launguage, she rolled her eyes.

I narrowed my eyes, studying the girl a moment before I gave her a friendly smile. "Hi, I'm Penelope, Daughter of Zeus," I greeted, my usual smile on my face. I glanced briefly at Matthew, since I still wasn't convinced he was okay. I simply shrugged and tucked a strand of hair behid my ear. A gust of cool wind blew through the forest, carrying the scent of pine and strawberries from the field nearby. I easiy understood why the girl meant and u bidder my head slowly, a slight look of pity in my eyes. If I wasn't able to talk I couldn't give my sarcastic comments.

I nodded at the girl. My sister, before she had become a hunter, had forced me to learn sign language. What a grueling three months. I formed what I believed was, "Yes, yes I do know it," In sign language. It was a bit sloppy, but I had done well, considering it had ben five years. I slightly ignored the other two, rude dispositions together.

ooc: I have to apologize. My computer decided it'd be fun to freeze. So I'm on from my iPod. If replies take a bit or my iPod "fixes" words it thinks I've typed wrong then in sorry xP

Eyes flashing, I forced a smile and shoved back my anger before signing to the boy. They thought that I was pitiful? How rude and utterly wrong that was! Besides, it wasn't my fault I didn't speak. I spelled out my name in the sign language alphabet. V I C T O R I A V A L E N T I N E, but call me Vi. Then I signed daughter of before pausing and strumming an air lyre. Maybe he would understand? There wasn't a word for Polyhymnia in sign language so I had to make up an action that hopefully would be understood as a Muse's daughter.

//it's alright.

"Would anyone care to translate?" Ava asked, looking at Penelope and Matthew. "I mean, spanish, yeah, I've kind of got that down, but I've never learned sign launguage, I'm sorry. I've never had the need too." She said.

-- I'll be gone for a bit, I'll read and catch up in a bit. Feel free to carry on! --

//Lazy a** xD

I shrugged, noticing Ava's look. I was only able to speak a little bit of French. I then looked over at the girl. "I'm sorry, I don't understand sign language," I said, obviously sorry I wasn't able to understand her. It bothered me...Usually I was able to be sarcastic I people and not really care if it upset them. But now? It just felt wrong under the girl's circumstances. I simply kept my mouth shut, glancing each of them.
