ᴄʜʀɪsᴛᴍᴀs ɪɴ ᴄᴀᴍᴘ ʜᴀʟғ ʙʟᴏᴏᴅ

- all year campers got lots of Christmas activities (everyone's free to join! If they choose not to it's totally okay). The most fun is baking Christmas cookies with a big decoration contest! It's always a close call between the Aphrodite, Apollo and Athena kids.
- they also have the whole Secret Santa thing going on, which is a big event and most of the time everyone participates (who doesn't love getting presents right?)
- the gingerbread house contest is almost always won by the Athena cabin. They lost once to the Hephaestus kids cause the Hermes cabin pulled a prank to destroy their house
- the seven plus Reyna, Thalia, Will and Nico baking cookies together with Sally
- Percy insisting to have at least ONE baking sheet full of blue cookies
- him decorating the other with blue sprinkles and icing
- Will burning some cookies (will was in duty to check on them) cause he was joking around with the other. Nico making fun of it
- singing Christmas songs and drinking hot chocolate during the campfire (and eating the backing contest cookies)
- Percy forgetting his gloves so Annabeth needs to warm his hands
- Nico forgetting his gloves (on purpose of course) so Will needs to warm his hands
- Leo being a human radiator for almost everyone with his powers
- at least one trip to the Christmas market with camp half blood
- Frank shifting into different cuddly, warm animals every night to keep Hazel warm
- watching Christmas movies and eating cookies at Percy's place (obviously with Sally)
- Annabeth absolutely hates Christmas, cause they never really celebrated it at home. She loves the whole feeling of it tho (going to a Christmas market, backing, all the fun stuff to do yk)
- The first Christmas with Percy and his family was her best one so far. She knows why everyone loves it so much now
- everyone showing their different traditions (cultural or just "home" traditions)
- the week before Christmas no fighting in the arena allowed, cause Christmas is the time of peace and showing love
- the Apollo kids missing the sun so they installed uv-lamps to get their sun in some way
- Annabeth gifting Percy gloves in case he got cold hands and she's not around to warm them
- Hazel gifting everyone selfmade jewellery out of the jewels and metals she's able to bring to the surface
- Frank gifting the most wholesome presents to everyone (he thought about them a lot)
- Piper sneaking away from Christmas charity events she had to attend with her father to meet with her friends
- Sally inviting everyone to a Christmas breakfast
- Will and Nico gifting each other the cutest stuff ever and totally blushing
- Leo gifting selfmade animals or other little gadgets
- Nico pretending to hate everything but telling Will later that he absolutely adores Christmas (Will totally kept this a secret...)
- snowball fights, which are absolutely insane in camp
- just basically everyone having a good time
