Tina blinked at the girl. She was a bit intimidating... Tina found herself hiding behind Julien for no reason. It was just instinct. She didn't know either, so she was absolutely confused about what was happening. "Y-yes, I am." She managed to answer Silver with her quiet voice. "Um, yes ma'am." She stayed behind Julien, not really wanting to be close to the girl. Her eyes were so cold and scary.

"Ma'am?" Julien asked the girl. "Well, Silver, it seems you've already got a slave." Turning to his apparent half-sister, he smiled warmly. "You don't need to be scared of her. Just ignore her and stay away. First thing I learned since I got here - self-taught!" Stepping away from the two so he wasn't in the middle and see both of them, he kept staring warmly at Tina. "I'm Julien. I've got a feeling we'll be seeing each other quite a bit around here," he laughed.

Silver hissed in annoyance "I respect the fact you actually know your manners, but next time Silver is fine." then looking at Julien she added a snarl "I unlike most don't believe slavery has anything to do with a small girl's use of manners, also I would find no use in such a slave, what is there to do that I can't do myself without much work?." sighing she waved the thought aside due to the fact the words were true. Silver unlike most Zeus kids was stupid, and did pay attention during her online Chemistry, Physics, and Physical Science classes. Which was useful since lighting is just energy, and if she focused she can change it so it's actually useful in many different situations, from blowing things up to just giving people head aches. "Well do either of you gave weapons? Or do we have to get you some." glaring at Julien she added "Because without one you may get a lesson that won't be self-taught. But very useful," her voice a cold lethal tone. Silver of course had sone curtesy of not being so cold to the little girl, but that didn't mean she would be any kinder. She still had to hold up her 'busy hating you' look.
Looking at the little girl she added "You probably haven't fought many monsters on your way here," she said this judging from the way she cowared away from her so quickly. Which is understanding, but if you actually fought monsters you'd find Silver was the most intimidating thing around.

Tina looked up startled at Julien with her big blue eyes. She broke into a tiny smile. so she had a big brother. He was nice. Tina didn't like him stepping away from between her and Silver though. She gazed at Silver shyly. Maybe this person wasn't so mean. She just had a bad past?
"Okay, um," Tina looked back at the Demeter cabin, which she had managed to find now. "I do have a weapon...but no, I havent fought any monsters..." The little girl trailed off with her quiet voice. she knew how to fight to some extent. She wasn't good, though. She hated violence.

Julien sighed. "I've got a weapon, too, though I really can't fight," he admitted. "Just think of me as the diplomat. I'll make the monsters run in horror of my kindness!" What a lie. Sure, Julien was kind. Sure, he couldn't fight. But him actually encountering a monster? Ha! He would be the one to sit back and watch with observant eyes. Sometimes, Julien wondered if his mother was Athena, not Demeter.
"Trust me, Silver, I don't plan on getting into fights. You can do your... whatever you do around here... and I'll just sit in the background, watching, if you don't mind," he said, softly. He wasn't one for aggression, but he wasn't as shy and scared as Tina. You get Julien mad enough, he'll burst. It takes a lot but, when you do, there is no going back. You'll be lucky to live afterwards. "So, the tour?"

When she heard neither could fight she sighed. "Ok, we'll do a tour. Then a quick fighting lesson. Just as a warning Julien, not to you Tina since I tend to have more patience for small children, if you do one miniscule move incorrectly you will be risking alot of pain. So picture this as my first, and only act of kindness towards you, Tina though I can help a bit more if she desires, though I may not always be the best instructor. I tend to know a bit more about power minipulation than the Ares or Athena cabin, therefore when using your weapons and powers at once I can help a bit. Ares cabin can help alot with weapons, Athena with strategy, and I would go to Silene for defense, she's the only one here that would probably survive a attack," she said in a neutral voice. Which was the closest sound to kindness Julien will receive, Tina though, Silver could make an acception to her cruelty rule. Her exceptions only done to those who she feels pity for or she thinks needs some help before getting the whole zap and staticy hair mess.

"Okay." Tina readily agreed to Silver. The girl had seemed to lighten up her intenseness. So Tina gained a fraction of her confidence back. She was glad she had brought her sword with her (let's just throw it in there magically XD). It was in its plain leather sheathe That was attached to her belt. It was a small sheathe, therefore a small sword. The girl fidgeted nervously. She wasn't sure how well she would do against anyone.

Silver catching sight of the sword frowned slightly "Well test alot of weapons to see the most effective since having only one on you isn't the best idea." which was true. If you looked closely at silver you could see two small poisonous daggers being used as chains for style on her small belt, which held her electrifying clear sword and a small pocket that could only hold the unknown.

Julien sighed. He wasn't going to be having a fun day, at all, today. First, a tour with Silver. Then getting into a conversation with her that seemed to last an eternity. Now, he got to have a course of training with the girl. He had a feeling that, once he got back to the Demeter Cabin, he would be in ripped and torn clothes and his hair would have so much electricity in it, it would he sticking straight up.
Alas, he moved on. "Let's go, then. First, the tour, then we get to train!" Taking the lead, even though he had no idea where he was going, Julien walked off into the main clearing in The Camp, between the cabins and The Big House. "Coming?"
(XD I almost typed Pyre instead of Julien... sure, let's just transport Pyre over to the Camp!)

Tina gazed at Julien with curiosity. Then she forced herself to follow. She was grateful for the tour because she had the most horrible sense of direction in the world. She couldn't really explore. She needed to know where everything was. But the training she really didn't want to do. Especially with Silver. She seemed so strong and deadly...

Silver honestly didn't care where they started the tour now. So instead of being like every other guide she said "Go to the first building you think looks interesting. I'll tell you what it is, if we pass something relevant you'll know," she told Julien dismissive of his impatience. Honestly if she was in his shoes, and Zeke (the closest person to her personality in this camp) had to be her guide she would have already started a fight. But Julien, and his lack of training and small sense of sanity, knew better than to go challenge the daughter of Zeus.
Silver on the otherhand would even challenge Zeus if he got on her nerves. Which wasn't always a good thing, it just meant she was bold and fearless, which goes both ways.

Julien attempted a smile and nodded in reply. He went off towards the Big House, first, since it was sorta the biggest building in the Camp. "Okay, that big building over there," he said, pointing.
(Will we just do the tour in this thread to save the trouble of making another thread or...)

(just this one. The tour won't really belong in any location and since they already are moving in this thread  ) Silver didn't have to look at the building to know he was talking about the Big House "That's the Big House. Cabin leader's have meetings there and in the attic the Oracle lives," she said then pointing at the Infirmary she told them "That's the Infirmary where people go if they're hurt," walking towards the Big House she sighed. A tour did consist of viewing things after all... |

Julien walked with Silver, allowing her to take the lead. It would be much easier for him to follow the tour guide than to lead the group places he'd never been. The closer he got to the Big House, the larger it seemed to Julien. Four floors and, judging by the base of the house, a basement. This house really was huge. "So," he asked his 'tour guide', "who's in charge, around here? Y'know... other than you." He was hoping to make Tina feel a little more comfortable. She seemed so shy and scared of everything around her.
After finding out he had a little sister, he became the big brother he'd always wanted when he was little. He wanted to stand up for Tina. Fighting for her might be hard, if he ever would need to do that. He had no idea what he could do with his powers. He'd only made a few blades of grass grow at home last summer. But, judging by how the Demeter cabin was decorated with numerous flowers and olive trees, he should be able to wield more power than what he could now. Still, Julien wasn't one to fight.

Tina trailed behind, sticking to Julien like a shadow. She looked around with curious wide eyes. The Big House made her feel a lot smaller than she already was. And she tried to keep out of other campers' view as they passed by. She tried to remember every things' location. She had the most horrible sense of direction you could find in an eleven year old. The girl knew how to fight and survive. Her powers were half mastered, but she could never find herself fighting anything or anyone. She had the skills, but she was easily intimidated into running. Things like monsters would probably scare her. Last time she had gone to a fencing lesson with her friend, she had learned somewhat how to use the sword. She had told her dad to quit it for her after four lessons. She was beginning to bother the teacher anyway. She apologized whenever she struck back with her sword, which she rarely did.
