Linos seemed to sense Stelios' mood. He looked like he wanted to hug the angry man but he restrained himself. Linos turned to Iason.
'Head of House is the leader of each House! They deal with disputes, lead activities, arrange the House, admin and other stuff like that!' He paused, and his smile got wider, if that was possible. 'To become Head of House you kill the previous guy in single combat! That's why I'm the only Hermes child.' He smiled at them all, as if this wasn't fucking weird.

"I am really not good with plants at all. I can't keep a single flower alive.", Sophia told Eurytus.
"So what are the perks of being Hermes' child or any god's child really?", she asked Linos and smiled friendly.

"And what kind of pansy-ass was this other child of Hermes?" Stelios wondered in his head, "or was there even another one? Doubtful. This kid doesn't look like he could take anyone in a fight."

Iason raised an eyebrow about the death thing and decided he wasn't going to piss off this happy Hermes psychopath.

Linos beamed at Sophia. 'Loads! Everyone is different really! As Hermes you get traits from the god! I can move quickly and I'm also a good pickpocket. Other children, like, say Athena, are very intelligent. It's a mixed bag really, but it depends.' A kid came up behind Linos, just as Stelios was thinking about wimpy Linos looked, and put his hand on Linos' shoulder. With lightning speed, the Hermes kid grabbed the other kid's arm and swung him over his head, then broke the guys wrist on the ground. Linos stepped back in surprise. 'Sorry Arty! I'm so sorry! And that's the fifth time! You need to be careful with the sudden grabbing.' He helped the poor kid to his feet. (OOC; going to bed now. )

Érika opened her mouth, and spoke for the first time since they had gotten there. “I feel like I'm here by a mistake. I can't possibly be the daughter of a God. I know both my mother and father; I think I was just at the wrong place at the wrong time.” She stated flatly.

Eurytus made a face. "Move quickly is an understatement," he muttered. "Linos is truly blessed by Hermes. You'll see in sword class tomorrow as he is one of our trainers." He turned to Sophia. "Maybe Aphrodite then. Or maybe your father was the god. We may know soon child."
Hr turned to Erika, sadly. "I know you wish otherwise, but this is impossible. You couldn't have gotten in the camp if you were mortal. One of our parents isn't true, at least in blood," he consoled. He had the look, like he'd had to say this many times before.
(OOC; Night all. Tomorrow we'll get you to the dining place and close the day. )

Érika felt her eyebrow twitch. She crossed her arms over her flat and firm chest and looked away from Eurytus. She had no doubt in her parentage. “We'll see...” she whispered. Perhaps she had gotten to the fight in time after all and had taken a blow to the head; yes, this strange realm was merely a fantasy, a dream.

Eurytus had that shrewd look in his eyes like he knew exactly what Erika was thinking but he let it go. These demigods were always the most difficult...
A conch horn blew over the camp and the centaur clasped his hands. "Who's ready for dinner? Linos will lead you, as your new House Leader." He moved over and knelt down. He whispered a few words with the satyr. Only one word could be heard to Sophia's enhanced ears; Big Three child. Eurytus smiled back at them.
"I'll take my leave of you now. Tomorrow, you may explore the camp, try to get a feel for the place. At midday, we shall see you in the training arena. Linos will find you." With that he galloped away, leaving them to the crazy of Hermes.

Prochorus crossed his arms and looked expectantly at Linos. "Are we even sure he can find his way to the dining pavilion?" he muttered under his breath to Sophia. "He'd have to escape that mess he calls a mind first."
All this was interesting though; he'd been waiting years to finally have answers. Demigods, Olympians, it all made sense. He was finally starting to calm down in a way he hadn't felt since he was seven and they'd been forced to escape the palace on Cyprus. Thinking about that made him sad for his mother. His right arm started to shake, before falling limp. He hid it though, trying to blend in with the background.

Sophia chuckled slightly at Prochorus' words but her attention was pointed to something else. Didn't no one else hear that? I child of the Big Three? And how could she hear that? They were whispering. Sophia felt really weird.
"I think I heard something about a child of the Big Three. Do you reckon someone of us is a child of Zeus, Hades or Poseidon?", she whispered to Prochorus.

Prochorus gave her a look, of anger, fear, and pure deadpan. "Well whoever that is is one unlucky bastard. I guess it sounds cool to be Zeus' kid, get all the crazy powers, you'd live your life like an animal...," he trailed off, realising that's exactly what his life had been like.
"Anyway, they don't know anything. We're probably a mix of Ares, Demeter and Hermes kids. We'd know if we were big three material. Like we could call down lightning or control the ocean and stuff," he joked. "I don't know about you, but it's squat for me on both those counts."

'Lets go Happy Campers!' Linos shouted happily. He led them, and a small group of other scared looking kids (they had to live with Linos after all) up to the Dining Pavilon (OOC: See the board.)
