it's a bad idea, and i'm all about it

είναι μια κακή ιδέα, και είμαι όλος για αυτό

CABIN 7 was almost empty during the day. Normally, Apollo's offsprings spent the day outside, trying to catch as much sunlight as they could. You'd normally find them where you'd expect them to be; taking archery classes, in the infirmary (you'll have to guess if they are there because they want to help or because they need the help) or maybe preparing that night's camp sing-along. Jo was currently trying to get Will, her little brother, to let her leave the infirmary.

"What did you even do to get an arrow stuck in your ankle?" Will asked. He didn't want to let Jo leave the infirmary. Her having a weapon buried into her flesh had to do part with it, big time, but he actually wanted to look after her because he never got the chance to do anything for her sister. Jo had grown up to be extremely independent and it was very hard for her to accept help. He saw the opportunity, and he took it.

"Stupid Hermes boys with their stupid aim. It's like they're trained to be idiots behind arrows."

Andrew Langley was standing beside her bed with his arms crossed, stifling his laugh. He found it amusing how angry she looked. "Jo, I think it's kinda on you. You know I'm terrible at archery, you just decided to hang around."

"I mean, yeah... but that doesn't mean I was expecting you to shoot me in the foot!"

"It was the ankle."

Jo sighed. "Yeah, whatever FedEx. Can I get out of here? Annabeth was looking for me." The girl asked her brother with her best sad-puppy-face. Will chuckled while he finished bandaging Jo's arrow-impaled ankle.

"Let me take care of you! I'm sure Annabeth will understand."

"What will I understand?" Annabeth said while leaning into the doorframe. Everyone turned to look at her. She got a little bit preoccupied looking at her best friend sitting at one of the infirmary's beds, but relaxed when she saw that she was just fine. "Jo got shot by an arrow."

"...Was it Andrew?"

"Yes! You see? You guys have a terrible reputation!"

"Come on Annabeth you could've been a little bit less direct!"

Annabeth chuckled while looking at both of them. It was very common to see the two of them bickering over the stupidest thing. "Is it bad, Will?" The Apollo kid was giving Jo a little square of ambrosia whilst having a last look at the brown eyed girl's ankle.

He sighed. "Nah. Not serious at all. I would recommend you stop looking at arrows whatsoever, Andrew. Let alone try to shoot some." Andrew threw his arms up on surrender. Jo laughed. It was her turn to find his friend amusing.

"I think you'll be perfectly fine for Friday's capture the flag, Jo. Be careful though. Maybe stay away from Langley?" Jo was fully cackling at the blond's comment. Even though being at the infirmary made her a little nervous, having her favorite people around made it so much easier and tolerable.
