Relieving Memories

Bathroom Gods

...Who No Longer Live in Toilets

Once I got ...his front.

While the rest of the throne room laughed, Kiara grimaced directing a wave of sympathy towards her brother. She hasn't gotten the horse scooper patrol but she was right there with him.

She didn't blame him for his caution.

We passed..."That's him."

"That must've gotten annoying," Apollo remarked.

"It did." Percy agreed.

"Didn't even last all that long but we were done hearing it pretty quickly," Kiara nodded. "They didn't care much for me though."

"We did," Annabeth argued. "He was the one who came with a horn though."

Most of ... hindquarters.

"All satyrs absolutely hate pants," Hermes mused.

"I keep suggesting shorts when they're at camp, but the Aphrodite cabin is very against it." Mr D complained.

The love goddess in question thought about this, then pulled her own sketchbook out and began jotting down ideas her children would approve of to give satyrs shorts.

I wasn't ... something.

"Can-" Apollo began.

"Flipping is apart of the dodging and escape course in camp," Annabeth chimed. "If he couldn't do them then, he can now."

The sun god nodded in satisfaction and settled back in to listen.

I looked ...being watched.

The half-bloods all shivered.

"Thank gods for Rachel," Percy grimaced.

"Who's Rachel?" Artemis asked.

"The new Oracle." Thalia told her.

Apollo perked up and the room seemed to grow brighter as he looked at them eagerly.

"She's passed on now?" He asked excitedly. "What does this 'Rachel' look like? How old is she? Is she super smart? Does Artemis like her? Is-"

"Brother," the goddess of the hunt chided lightly.

"Can't spoil all of that," Kiara said apologetically. "But yes, your oracle does move on safely to a new body."

Though slightly saddened he couldn't have all of his answers, delight radiated off of the sun god. His oracles often became good friends of his and he'd missed the company when she wouldn't transfer bodies.

"What's ...living thing."

"I mean, it wasn't a lie," Kiara mumbled.

I got the feeling he was being truthful. But I was also sure something had moved that curtain. The glance Kiara gave me signaled she felt the same way.

"You're both very intuitive," Demeter observed.

Thalia pointed at Percy, Kiara and Annabeth respectively before listing: "Instinct and Heart, Curiosity and Heart, Brains and Brawn."

"Brains and brawn?" Ares asked with a raised eyebrow.

"I am not brains and brawn!" The blonde protested the mild insult.

"Says she whose first instinct is to brain a fellow camper," the ravenette muttered.

Annabeth smacked the back of her head and Thalia shot everyone a look that said 'point proven.'
