[Color=6666FF]"Maybe you called in sick or something? Seems odd they'd just skip over it in school."[/color] His attention quickly turned towards Kristin, as he lightly jabbed the ground with the toes of his shoe. [Color=6666FF]"I get that, I'm not claustrophobic or anything but I get the same way with heights. No harm no foul, just a bit of light teasing was all."[/color] Zeke had hardly said a word edgewise, but he was seemingly sticking close to Nancy. He got it, siblings ' first trip and all that. And with Janelle here he was sure it was difficult for Zeke to be his boyfriend without drawing attention. There was a short sigh with his mind, a mental pause to allow himself to acknowledge and move past the fact that this quest and time away with Zeke may not be exactly as how he'd imagined it. There would be no cuddling under the stars as they camped outside, or sharing snacks and favorite treats at stations they passed by. So he decided to focus on other things. [Color=6666FF]"So what's freedom tower? Looks impressive, but can't say I know anything about it? Wanna give us a walking tour as we make our way over towards Grand Central Station? Oh and any chance we can hit a few stops along the way. I've never been to New York before so I have a [i]load[/i] of things I'd love to do."[/color] [hr][h1][b][i][color=CC00CC][center]Cassian Rudenko[/center][/color][/i][/b][/h1][center][img]https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/392257844256440322/844140037963644949/855e9aabdb4e547cabf9f9441afd50a4.jpg[/img][/center][hr][center][color=CC00CC][b]Location[/b][/color]: Van [color=CC00CC][b]Skills[/b][/color]: [/center][hr][hr] Cassian looked past Demetri at the space behind him. Thinking about what he'd said. He didn't exactly want to state he was homeschooled so sick days weren't exactly a thing, but then they might view him even stranger than they already did. He got teased enough growing up because he didn't attend regular schooling. He didn't need it from his camp mates either. [Color=CC00CC]"Must've been sick then, or even dozed off. History wasn't exactly my strong suit."[/color] Hearing what Kristin had said though, what appeared to be several coordinated attacks against high profile locations, a part of him wondered if it was human malice or another demi-god / monster problem. His mother had taught him enough about how some past wars had been about fights between the gods' children. How history was shaped and molded by the children born on this earth, so was this simply another one of those moments? Cassian tried not to think about it. Part of why he revered his father so much was because of what he gave humans. Revelry, freedom, what many viewed as chaotic was liberation. He wasn't just the God of Parties, he could be an inspiration for those who wished to fight the oppressive regimes of others by releasing their inhibitions and being true to themselves. [Color=CC00CC]"So which way?"[/color]
