The Kellogg Confusion [ p r i v a t e -- Colby ]

Trudging into the cafeteria with her hair thrown back into a bun and her extensions still in, Zan was tired and didn't want to be spoken to. She hadn't brushed her hair, teeth or anything else and she was makeup-less. She didn't look terribly without makeup but she definitely didn't have that wow factor, or so she thought. She wore her sleeping clothes and her shoes made little shuffling noises as she dragged them across the linoleum floor of the pavilion.

Although, stuck inside the waist on her pants was a simple bronze dagger that she'd use if needed. Plopping down at the Zeus table, she willed her goblet to fill with coffee with cream and sugar and cinnamon sticks. She loved cinnamon. Dumping the cream and sugar into her coffee, she stirred the concoction around with her cinnamon sticks. The nymphs appeared with platters of food and Will appeared out of nowwhere as well, his hair ruffled and lipstick on his lips. Roxanne just grunted at her son but a smile danced across her lips. Will shrugged with a crooked grin. He straightened his tie and said, "What can I say? The nymphs love me," he rubbed a bit of lipstick off with his thumb.

The nymphs set down the platters and one little cute one winked at Will. Roxanne shook her head. She picked up two sunnyside eggs and two pieces of bacon and two pieces of toast and set them on her plate. She began to eat her food slowly, chewing each bite carefully but over carefully. Roxanne was a little bit OCD about her food.

Destiny walked into mess hall with her hair in a ruff bun random strands hanging here and there with one side of her face slightly red from rubbing sleep off her face and a scowl on her lips she nearly missed the bench she sat on across from Zan. "I. Lothe. Mornings." She mumbled with a cracked voice. The red head laid her head down finding it to early to be up and she would be asleep if the people in her room would understand she wanted to stay in bed until midnight. 20 or so hours isn't bad to ask is it? The ginger didn't thank so.

Striding into the mess hall I seen Roxanne and Destiny, I smiled and walked towards them. My hair wasn't jelled and rather messy but still pretty hot. Washed face and smirk in place I slid into the bench. I nodded once greeting the three opuipents. "Morning Sparks, Destiny," I gave the large dark haired guy with lip stick on his face. "Player." He took notice of the similarity within Roxanne and this player guy.

Roxanne literally growled at Pretty-boy. She was not a morning person. She was hardly even a day person. Will chuckled as he continued to straighten his tie, "So Ma, I've been wanting to tell you, I've been applying to business schools across the country. But mostly in New York and with the High School diploma I get from the School of Camp Halfblood, I could get into any college," he said with a bit of a smirk on his face. William had never exactly cared for any of Roxanne's boyfriends. Or.. friends for that matter. He shot a glance at Destiny who, like his mother, look like death warmed over.

"Whoever invented mornings needs to be shot," Zan grumbled breaking apart her bacon and sprinkling it on her eggs. She scooped up the eggs and plopped them onto the toast and folded the toast in half and bit into it the sandwhich. The flavor from the peppered eggs and the bacon burst onto her tongue and she was extremely grateful. She glanced at Will approovingly. Will had been ignoring the 'player' comment for a while, so she knew he didn't like Pretty-Boy. Well, she did so too bad for Will.

Raising his eyebrows at Roxanne he laughed. "Oh growling? Do I really strike those feelings in you this early in the morning?" He gave the large guy a look as he called Zan ma he looked back and forth between them. "That's your son? He's a big guy." Grant told Zan bluntly but overall seemed pretty unfazed about it. He grabbed a bowl and filled it with milk and cereal and started to eat slowly.

Destiny looked over at Will with an unwavering glare. "That's wonderful William I'm so proud now shut up and eat." She gave her sister a half smile only able to pull half her mouth up. "Agree'd, I say we hunt her down." Des looked at the food silently willing it to go from the table to her mouth but since she lacked thatr kind of magic she towe pieces of pancake off and plopped it in her mouth not even bothering with syrup or butter, you could tell Des was in a her morning mood.

Swallowing her eggs Zan nodded, "Yeah. I'll have Aura's head," she muttered. She'd make an offering of apologies to the goddess later. She was eating now. "Yeah, he's a real truck," she muttered shooting a grin at Destiny. She was the very person who had told him this when he was younger.

Will, however, was busy making eyes at certain nymphs.

((You lazy butt))

Destiny couldn't even smile now she was dozing off pretty much. "Like a dump truck, he's a dirty kid." She mumbled her remark making little sense but yet perfectly funny. As she looked back down at the kid she shook her head slightly muttering. "I liked him better as a baby, a lot less hormones."

Grant raised an eyebrow at the Zeus kids. "None of you seem like morning people except, William right? How is that cabin still standing?" He asked looking at Destiny as just gave snarky half asleep remarks. He then looked at Will who seemed to be ogling nyphs left and right he frowned not that they were unattractive, he just prepered the human/demigod type. And he was rather interesting in the girl across the table from him.

((I love picking on Will))

Hearing his name, Will looked over his family. Well, Zan's boyfriend wasn't his family.. yet. Who knew what Roxanne was up to.

Roxanne pushed away her empty plate and gulped down the rest of coffee. "Ahh.. there's nothing like coffee to wake me up..." she said with a grateful smile. She was really glad Chiron didn't speak in the mornings, she figured he, like her, was too tired to talk in the mornings as well. Clearing her throat, she glanced at Destiny. "We've got to get dressed. I've got classes today," she said. She had Mythology 4, Master's Swordfighting, Canoeing, and Beginner's Calculus. She particularly liked her math class. It was interesting, to say the least bit.

Will shot a glance at the guy in front of Roxanne, "Hey, man, I didn't catch your name," he said.

Destiny nearly snarled, "I'm skipping my first class, I'm not doing Archary this early." She gave her sister a serious look. "And I'm doing everyone a favor by it." She sighed and after serveal attempts to poor the coffee drained it in a few glups.

Grant nodded. "Mine don't start till later." Looking over at he gave a prideful smirk. "Grant Simons." He gave somewhat formally. Keeping his chin high he finished his last bit of cereal milk and dabbed at the corner of his mouth with a napkin.

Zan cracked a smile. "Well, despite your habit of injuring people with arrows, I'm going to get changed." She was chuckling now. When she heard Pretty-Boy say his name, she thanked every god. It wasn't Sam. It was Grant. She loved that name.

Will nodded. He reached out to shake hands with the older boy, "It's a pleasure meeting you," he said. Just as he said this, a nymph tapped him on the shoulder, her gaze dancing around the table. She leaned down and whispered something into his ear which caused him to smirk. He whispered something back and she blushed and giggled. Then she left.

"That.. was weird. Stick to incest," Zan said bluntly. He pulled her sister's arm and got up from the table, her sparkly UGGs were loud against her outfit. She had no idea what she'd wear today. She'd figure that out though.

((We'll skip to dinner. xD ))

Destiny truged into the mess hall during lunch with a much more plesent look. Her hair was a cinnomin brown and fell in wet rings that was pulled into a simple ponytail She slid onto the bench she was on earlier this morning. Keeping looking around for Roxanne she scoffed. "How did I lose her so quickly?"

Grant Walked towards the mess hall his hair jelled up in it's spiky mess and dressed in a pair of capris and a t shirt. Stoping outside the pillers he took a few deep breaths of the fresh air before going towards the dinning area.

Jogging into the Mess Hall bursting with energy from her canoeing, Zan greeted her friends and slid onto the bench. Her leg bounced up and down beneath the table. "I'm so ready to eat. I have a feeling someone's going to get claimed tonight," because it was early March the sun was begining to go low down in the sky and gentle breeze roamed through the pavilion. She could hear the nymphs bustling away in the kitchen shouting orders and different things at each other. One time she had received dish duty. It was either with Destiny or Colby, but how she missed those days. She was fifteen or sixteen when it happened. She could just picture herself at fifteen. Her hair short and choppy with dark eye makeup surrounding her eyes, an indignant look on her face all the time. Her stormy blue eyes always dark with annoyance. She was one of those angst-ridden teenagers who had inner-demons but took their anger out on other people.

Coming back to reality from her thoughts, Zan looked over at Grant. "So.. how are you?" She asked, a bit weary from her thoughts. They'd made her nostalgic. Soon she'd be out of camp and out on her own in the real world. Well, she could always get knocked up again, like Penelope and get married and live somewhere else. But, even that would make her sad. Her eyes dulling with sadness, she sighed softly. She loved camp. It was her home. She couldn't leave. It was the only place she really felt at home at.

As Grant sat beside Roxanne he started took a sip of his drink. "Fairly well, Sparks, And you?" He asked raising an eyebrow the the redhead who was the oppsitie of what she had been this morning. He almost wondered if she was bipoler, but desided she was just not a morning person. Slyly slinking an arm around Roxanne he was mostly testing her reaction to him. Giving her a smile down at her the bruenette sipped more of his drink nonchulautly. "I've desided I don't really like history." He metioned as he sat his drink down. Yay for being left handed.

She leaned against Grant a little bit, liking the feel of his side on her's too. She liked him. That was for sure. The tables were empty for now and Zan's goblet was waiting for her request. She feeling a bit happy tonight so she ordered Dr. Pepper. The goblet was instantly filled with bubbling, brown pop. Smiling, she lifted to her lips taking a long drink, like a long drag from a cigarette. She set the goblet down and prodded Destiny, "How was your day?" This is what they always did. They always talked about how well their days had gone or how bad they had been. Zan had a pretty good day herself, which she was fairly excited to talk about.

Giving her sister a glance she raised an eyebrow but shrugged it off. "Oh it's been fine, other then shooting some kid in the foot, an accident that could of been prevented, I've had a nice day. And you my dear Zan?" Des laughed sipping her drink.

Grant nodded once keeping his mouth shut and looking down at Zan. "Yeah Sparks, What have you been up to?" Hugging her close too his defined body he watched at more and more people started to pile into the mess hall.

"Well, today in my calculus class we were talking about slopes and stuff and I was answering questions like an Athena child and my teacher handed me a brochure for advanced Calculus that's taught at Camp by a child of Athena. The class is super small and it'll look good for when I go to college next year.." she kind of murmured that last part. Destiny or Will or Grant didn't know that she was going away for college next year. She did have to try and have a life out of camp.

"Yeah, so I'll be going to a college for law. It's a good law school. And don't judge me when I tell you about it. Okay, so you know how as soon as you leave camp to enter into the world the camp gives you a diploma that says you graduated from Hercules High School? Aka, the camp? Well, I guess I must've done pretty good on all my tests because I got accepted in Stanford. It has the third best law school in the country." Zan could barely retain a smile as she continued, "The reason I didn't tell you was because I didn't want you all to judge me."

Watching her curoiusly with wide eyes Destiny paused eating and squeeled. "Oh gods Roxanne! That's greet I'm proud of you!" Destiny crawled under the table and tackled the black haired girl in a bear hug in less then 5 seconds. She was extremely proud of her sister for getting into one of the best colleges.

Grant watch the exchange with slightly amusement and then worry has she noticed she was nearly trying to kill his Sparks with a hug. "Hey now. I'm proud to, but I'd be happy if you'd not try to crush Sparks." he frowned more so worried about the fact that he'd lose her so soon. He hated not feeling like he was incontrol but he found it was more important that she was happy something he hadn't felt in nearly 8 years.

Chuckling Roxanne said, "Thank you, Destiny, I'm pretty dang happy you understand. Grant, you're okay with this right?" She nodded at him. She really hoped he was okay. Maybe he could submit an application and get into college. She sure hoped so. It'd be so cool if they could go to school together! Of course, that might attract a large amount of monsters, but Zan could handle them. But, the monsters did leave you alone after eighteen.

Watching the two sisters with amusement he was nearly caught off guard from her question. Giving her a nod he smiled with gleaming white teeth. "I'm happy for you, I'm going to miss when you have to go, but I'm very happy for you." His voice was sincere and his dark eyes held a steady gaze.
