PJO/HoO Around the Campfire

Would You Rather Do It (I)

December 6, 2020

A few days later...

"Leo, this is such a good idea!" Annabeth told him as everyone started sitting in a circle in the Posiedon cabin, the fountain in the corner as much a part of the circle as anyone else.

"You called ahead of time, right? THey are definitely going to be able to IM us now?" Nico asked Annabeth he was seated across the circle from her and the fountain.

Annabeth smiled at him, "Yes, Nico, you'll get to talk to Hazel. And Reyna." Nico couldn't help but smile, his smile was pointed at the ground though. Ill grabbed his hand from where he was sitting beside Nico, he was smiling wider than Nico was.

"Quiet down everyone, I'm putting the coin in now." The noise significantly decreased as percy asked for their friends at Camp Jupiter.

The faces of Reyna, Hazel , and Frank showed up through the fountain, it wasn't as good aas seeing them face-to-face but it was still pretty great.

Everyone cheered when they saw the faces of their friends, they all knew it was over dramatic but they didn't care too much because they missed their friends.

"How've you been?" Hazel asked. There were a few different answers but it was hard for anyone to tell what anyone else's answer actually was.

They chatted for a bit, Grover was introduced to everyone he didn't know, they caught up on what was going on in their lives, and what the covid protocol was at their respective camps.

"I say we begin our game, Leo, what are we playing?" Percy asked when the conversations died down a bit.

"I was thinking Would You Rather, because then we wouldn't need everybody to physically be here."

"Ooh, I have the perfect add on to this game," Travis told the group.

"We have the perfect add on," Connor said. "Basically you just do whatever option you choose."

"Of course this means that the options have to be realistic things that we can do."

"What do you think?" Connor finished off.

They all agreed so they got right on with the game, nobody wanted to waste any time.

"If it's okay with everyone, I'd like to go first," Katie said.

"Of course." Travis wiggled his eyebrows at her.

"Okay. Travis, would you rather jump in the lake fully clothed, or... tell the group what your biggest fear is?"

Travis thought about this for a moment but evidently decided that it was too much of a risk to tell anyone present something they could hold over his head for all the pranks he pulled.

"I'll jump in the lake, less chance of dying."

Percy was the one who carried the fountain out so Ryna, Hazel, and Frank ould watch too. The whole group stood on the dock, they didn't want to run the risk of Travis trying to splash them but still wanted to watch him jump in.

He was quick to jump in the lake, it wasn't that hard of a thing to do, it was a good starter one though because now Travis was soaked and everyone was already having a great time.

When Travis got out of the lake he grabbed a towel from his cabin but didn't change out of his wet clothes.

"Should we go in a circle or the last person who was asked?" Travis asked.

"Last person asked goes next," Leo said. "But they can't ask the person who asked them."

When they got back to the Posiedon cabin they didn't sit in the circle again, they were lounging around Percy's cabin because it didn't matter where they sat for this game. Percy made Travis sit on the floor though because, while he would have no problem with it, the other people would.

"Annabeth,would you rather tell us your fetishes, if you have any," Travis winked at her as he spoke, "or, say something seductive to the person who's lap you're using as a pillow right now?"

Annabeth looked up at Percy, they were on Percy's bed and he was sitting cross-legged with his back against the wall, Annabeth was resting her head in his la with her knees up.

"I guess the second one, but I'm going to whisper in his ear because you and I both know that just adds to it." She winked at Trais, she knew he wanted to hear what she was going to say but this way would be a lot more fun for everyone.

Travis sighed and rolled his eyes, but he did it while smiling, so that gave him away.

Annabeth sat up from Percy's lap so she could reach his ear and she whispered something in his ear that no one else in the room could hear. It was pretty long, definitely more than one sentence, but the more she went on the better it got.

The look on Percy's face was hilarious, everyone in the room, and on IM, could tell he was trying to hide how he actually felt about what was being whispered in his ear but he was failing. Miserably.

"Well! Let's just move on then," Percy all but shouted when Annabeth had finally moved her face away from his, teasing him with a kiss first.

"What did she say?" Reyna asked, a lot of the others agreed with her, also very curious.

"That's for me and Annabeth to know, and you all to never find out."

"I guess I'll go then," Annabeth said, mostly to get everyone's attention off Percy and her. "Hazel, would you rather sit on Frank's lap for the rest of the game or have Reyna sit on your lap for the rest of the game?"

Everyone knew what she was going to do, she gave a small look to Reyna as she slid to sit on Frank's lap and he instinctively wrapped his arms around her.

"Nico, would you rather rant about your feelings for Will for thirty second or paint your nails orange?"

Nico actually considered the first option, he hated the thought of having to rant about Will in front of everyone, even if he did that to Hazel. But still, orange nail polish, that was ridiculous, it did not look good on him.

He finally made a decision, "does anyone have orange nail polish? Because I sure don't."

Percy ran to his bathroom and came back with a bottle of yellowish-orange nail polish."Hazel, will this work?" She nodded so he gave it to Nico. "It was a bad two-in-the-morning-decision to get this colour, okay?"

Nico slightly laughed at him but took the nail polish and started working on his nails. He asked the next question. "Reyna, would you rather tell us your biggest secret or dance for thirty seconds without music?"

"I'm definitely going to feel silly doing this but..." she stood up and started swaying her hips slightly. She started moving her arms too, ust above her shoulders in rounding motions back and forth, opposite her hips.

Everyone started cracking up, including Reyna. It wasn't that she was bad at dancing, it was just ridiculous without music.
