[center][color=Goldenrod][h1]Alan Carpenter[/h1][/color] [img]http://i.imgur.com/dXhVyDQ.gif[/img] [b]Location:[/b] The Obstacle Tower; Camp Half-Blood. [sup][b]Interacting With:[/b] Hawley Griffin ([@Ghost Shadow]) and Imogen Parsons ([@Caits]).[/sup][/center] [color=darkgray]"Oh, for fuck's sake."[/color] Alan watched quietly as his half brother threw a small fit over the supposed tie that Ky' vie and Deon had come to. Even he had to admit it was a little sketchy, but really, what could he, or any of them do? It was another reason Alan had decided to stop participating in the Obstacle Tower - there was always just too much drama. [color=darkgray]"There's nothing worse than a standing prick."[/color] Alan had to chuckle lightly to himself at that one, even though Hawley wasn't even talking to him directly. He wanted to make some joke towards the idea of "that's how pricks work best, isn't it?" but decided against it - it just wasn't something he'd say out loud. But it didn't keep him from thinking it. [color=darkgray]"For gods' sake, she can handle herself."[/color] That part was probably true. Ky' vie was one of the toughest campers he knew, despite him being at camp for a short amount of time. Alan watched as Hawley came back to him, clearly upset by the whole ordeal and really he couldn't blame him, but Alan knew better than to waste any mental energy on getting worked up about something that was beyond his control. [color=darkgray]"So, what big announcement d'ya think is gonna happen today?"[/color] Alan shrugged his shoulders. [color=goldenrod]"Dunno. Maybe a new camper?"[/color] No, that wouldn't make sense. Campers came and went all the time without Dionysus making an announcement of any kind. [color=goldenrod]"Or maybe a quest is coming up."[/color] he quickly added on, as to not make himself look stupid any longer than he might have already done. [color=Gold]“Ms. Kylie Montgomery… Mr. Devin Argent… I suggest you stumble your way back down to the stands, and take a seat with the rest of these lazy lumps. I have the unfortunate pleasure of calling my camp to meeting, and I need all ears on us…”[/color] Alan's attention was pulled from talking with his brother to the god in question as he called down Ky' vie and Deon from the obstacle tower (having missed their kiss completely). He wasn't sure what it was, but Alan suddenly started to get a wrong kind of feeling - one that made his stomach start to churn and knot and that had the hair on his arms standing up on end. [color=goldenrod]"Guess we're about to find out."[/color] [color=0072bc]”I did it, I mean, I didn’t have a hope in hell of winning, but I still did it!”[/color] Once again, Alan's attention was diverted, though this time to the small (by comparison to himself) girl of Poseidon. His father was her father's nephew, or... something like that - so he wasn't exactly sure what that made Imogen and himself. Though technically... they were all related one way or another at this camp. [color=goldenrod]"You'll have your shot at winning, Imogen. She can't stay undefeated forever."[/color] Alan put one arm around her and pulled Imogen into a one-armed, congratulatory hug. [color=goldenrod]"And I don't think you fell off once - that's enough of a win for me."[/color] he chuckled.
