[h1]Syleste Astrea Nioré[/h1]
[h2]The Obstacle Tower ~ Camp Half-Blood[/h2]
[sup]Interacting with: Charlie Alexander ([@smarty0114]), Gabriel Davidson ([@Grim327])[/sup][/center][/color]

[color=deepskyblue]”Sure I can. I shall lead the way, my lady.”[/color]

[color=LightPink]“Heheh; thank you, my lord..! You’re the best..!” Unable to help the bright though still rather shy smile that crossed over her soft pink lips as she felt the familiar warmth of her friends hand taking a hold of her own, Syleste allowed her feet to follow along in the direction that she could feel him leading her in- Gabe was leaving her… he was going to walk out the safety barrier that protected the camp, and he was going to go on the hunt with their friends to get back Agápi- what that cute pink feather-ball had gotten himself into this time was a complete mystery; she could only just pray to the Gods and Goddesses that weren’t accusing Griffin that those going would be kept safe from harm… the very thought that one of them might get hurt while they were out in the world caused her heart to squeeze lightly within her chest.

She couldn’t understand it… The Gods were older than any one of them down here, yet it seemed as though all they wanted to do was act like two year olds, and to accuse the first person who popped into their mind- oh no… poor Griffin… there was no way he would have stolen from Aphrodite. Griffin was one of the sweetest, kindest and most caring person she had ever met; though she knew that there were others who would say otherwise… The two of them had grown up together, and had even come to the camp together when the time came for them to know the truth about their parents- he was like Mathew was; a big brother, and one she was more than happy to have within her life.[/color]

[color=deepskyblue]”You know Syleste, Gabe’s a smart guy. Well, I mean of course he is, but I mean he knows a good thing when he sees it, from what I can tell. And you and him seem like a good thing. Wow, you know what, ignore the awkwardness of all that and just take away that I think you and Gabe would be good together.”[/color]

[color=LightPink]Freezing for only a fraction of a second as the sound of Gabe’s name hit her ears, her hand tightened its hold over Charlie’s ever so slightly as her cheek flushed bright red out of embarrassment… H-he really thought that she and Gabe would be good together..? As in… as a couple in a relationship good together..? The very thought of it all had her heart fluttering madly within her chest; by the Gods she couldn’t deny that she liked Gabe in that way… ever since she had met him, he’d managed to make her feel stranger than any other guy had… causing her heart to race fast, her cheeks to get warm, her stomach to churn nervously- however, it wasn’t until one of their friends had mentioned something in teasing that she’d even realized [i]why[/i] she felt that way around him… though it didn’t mean that it made talking to him any easier…

“I-I mean, I know that Gabe is smart... and, well, he’s funny too… and-… and he’s really nice to me; he doesn’t treat me like I’m a little child either...” Lifting her free hand up from where it had been resting down by her side, Syleste let her fingers slip back through her long bubblegum pink locks, ruffling them out slightly before finally she let her arm drop back down to her side, instead allowing her fingertips to nervously play with the bottom of her singlet top as she continued to follow the path that Charlie was leading her on- why were things like this so hard..? Whether she liked it or not; Gabe was going to be heading out on this quest… either way, she was ready.[/color]

[color=deepskyblue]”Hello brave adventurers! Hope I’m not interrupting anything important but Gabe, Syleste had some things to say to you.”[/color]

[color=LightPink]Okay… so maybe ‘ready’ wasn’t exactly the right word to use- while she knew that Charlie had been doing nothing more than telling the truth… why did he have to do it so enthusiastically..? And when there were so many people still around..? Curling her shoulders over slightly out of embarrassment for the whole situation, Syleste slowly slid her hand out of his grasp as her feet began to shuffle across the ground, her cheeks burning a bright shade of red and her fingers closing around the back side of his top as she used it as a guide to shield herself away from prying eyes of the others watching on from the group- crowds had never been her thing… while she had gotten used to them over her years spent in the camp, when it came to matters like this they just became a bit more overwhelming… a bit more nerve inducing… Her crush (or puppy-love as Griffin like to refer to it as) was already a hot topic spoken about around the camp; so why did her conversations with the guy in question also have to be so public..?[/color]

[color=firebrick]”H-hey, Syl. I guess this is some serious stuff with the dove and all. I wasn’t expecting to go on this quest, though. I guess this is one way to be taught the ropes, huh?”[/color]

[color=LightPink]Feeling the material of Charlie’s top slipping out of her grasp as he wandered off and away from where the both of them were standing, Syleste hesitated for a couple of seconds before finally, she slowly turned herself round so that she was facing the direction in which she could hear Gabe’s voice sounding from, her hands both coming together in front of her stomach, and her fingers nervously playing with one another as she nodded her head lightly up and down in agreement to what he was saying, “..sure; I guess… I just hope that Agápi hasn’t gotten himself into too much trouble… I know Griffin didn’t do this- he’s so nice, he would never do a thing like this.”[/color]

[color=firebrick]”So u-um, Charlie said you wanted to tell me something?”[/color]

[color=LightPink] “O-Oh… y-yeah, uhm…” Shifting nervously over the place in which she stood as she nibbled anxiously upon her soft pink lower lip, Syleste pressed both of her hands closer into her stomach as though it was going to help her get out what it was she wanted to say- why was it so hard to talk to him..? If she liked him the way she believed that she did, then it should be easy to speak to him… right..? Shoving the thoughts out of her mind so that they would no longer bother her, Syleste stooped her head down in the direction of her feet for a few moments before finally, she lifted her attention back up to where he was still stood in front of her; the red blush never seeming to die down even as she took a deep breath to get out what she wanted to say to him.

“I, uh… I-I wanted to wish-… Well, to wish you good luck… I mean, it’s your first quest right..? First time away from the camp… from your friends, your brother… from me…”
