Unlike the other demigods she was soon to encounter, Thalia Grace was no stranger to reunions. She certainly wasn't afraid of them either, as to her, it was just another day as the Lieutenant of Artemis, though that was soon to change.
And so, as she strolled through the doors of SHIELD HQ, she held her head high, excited about what was awaiting her.
"What do we have here?," she smirked, addressing the group of people clustered in the middle of the room, " a nerd, a troublemaker and the all-American boy. Oh, and you."
Calypso introduced herself as any tension left in the room was released, and the former companions rejoiced.
...
The other members of the room had began to feel more relaxed at Thalia's entrance, with the exception of Calypso, but including Piper now hovered at the edge of the circle of demigods, leaving occasional sarcastic comments throughout the discussions of the prophecy that had dragged them all together.
...
A mop of messy blonde hair dressed in a doctor's uniform stumbled into the reception, who Thalia immediately recognised as Will Solace. Judging from Annabeth's welcome, she presumed that Annabeth had recognised the long term infirmary worker too. Not even seconds after Will had joined the group, Nico Di Angelo had stormed in, earning finger guns from Leo, a meek "hi" and wave from Will, tight hugs from Annabeth, Piper, Jason and Thalia and an introduction from Calypso, followed with a handshake.
As Calypso went to shake his hand, Thalia stared in awe at his other arm, with was replaced by a gleaming hunk of metal.
" Wow, dude! Did you know that you had a metal arm!"
"Yes, thank you Valdez, I had noticed that my left arm was forged out of vibranium."
Thalia couldn't help but laugh at Nico's newfound fluster caused by the attention everyone was giving, the poor guy really wasn't adjusted to any affection.
...
The group continued to chatter, each member finding out more and more, about the strangers who were once their very best friend. Amongst this, two new demigods entered the room, one walking up a grand staircase and the other gracefully skipping through the glass doors.
The entrance of Hazel Levesque and Frank Zhang went unnoticed first, due to neither one wanting to receive any attention, so the two were left awkwardly greeting eachother, both equally flustered. Thalia believed it was Nico who spotted his adoptive sister and her former boyfriend, and welcomed them warmly into the huddle of half-bloods.
