Art is so fun



I never really found out how in the world I ever actually never asked about Annabeth's move to San Francisco after we had been best friends for more than two years.  I mean, I knew EVERYTHING about Shirou after the first month I knew him.. how his parents died in a father, and then my previous master, Kiritsugu adopted him and took him in as a foster son, and then implanted the sheath to Excalibur in his body.. which incidentally, was how he managed to summon me (the sheathe acted as a catalyst without his knowing). 

But after 2 years, I was still skating on the edges where Annabeth's family was concerned. She just REALLY didn't like to talk about her family troubles, which I could relate to. I actually had been in denial that Mordred was even related to me until the battle of Camalann where we killed each other. But cut me some slack here.. I honestly didn't know that Morgan Le Fey took any.. er.. 'genetic material' from me during that brief horrible time where Merlin turned me into a pseudo male.. and as I was truly a woman the rest of my life, you gotta admit, it's kinda impossible for me to have a son with another lady... and considering Morgan, me and Mordred all resemble my mother Igraine, looks weren't really proof that she was really mine and not solely Morgan's.. oh jeez talking about this is awkward..

So yeah.. me and Annabeth.. awkward families both of us.. only mine was way MORE awkward. (Mordred's actually glad she's considered a sister rather than a kid of mine.. ).

Either way, I knew about how her father had rejected her.. and how after her father supposedly tried to make up.. he married a wife who couldn't hate her more...  but ever since she had given the relationship another chance after our issue with the Master Bolt ended.. I hadn't heard anything since.. except she managed to get into a brilliant architecture school,  and that she despised how her father was moving to San Francisco.

The Heavy Mist and Monsters, I got why Annabeth was so apprehensive. Even before I knew my heritage and that I myself was a Demigod too, I wouldn't have wanted to live here.. Servants were considered delicacies to monsters too.. of course they were dangerous delicacies that you only went after  if you were feeling lucky, but I heard from Grover that Monsters considered the risk well worth it.. especially with Servants of Dragon Kin, which made things especially dangerous for me, Mordred, Kiyohime, and Liz. 

So, when we stood at the front door to the large family house that Thalia led us to.. I found myself very apprehensive as I stood there, still leaning on Mash due to the massive amount of mana I had spent on the Mystic Eyes of the Wild Hunt..  wondering if I was about to meet a bunch of angry wrathful people who refused to help..

Instead, we found ourselves face to face with a very good looking middle aged man, with sandy hair.  he frowned at us a little, eyeing us.. "yes?"

"Mr. Chase? Frederick Chase right?" Thalia asked. "We're friends of Annabeth.. I'm.. "

"Thalia!" stammered Mr. Chase. "Oh my! Yes, I recognize you from the pictures!! And.. hmm.."
