Some did well while others did not do so well. It was a mixed bag and mixed responses from the pair. Leo did note how Duke did not show up or was not even called up. Did something happen to him, or did River forget him somehow? Leo did not see Duke in the arena, and maybe he slept in or something? It was weird if the person he spoke to yesterday suddenly disappeared. But maybe Duke will show up later, Leo thought to himself. Sofia watched eagerly but stayed silent as the campers did the course. She did feel bad for some of the campers who did not do well, and it showed on her face. When Veronica came back after her ordeal, Leo and Sofia sat there waiting for her, with Sofia speaking first. [color=#9966cc]"It is a rough course, but you made it!"[/color] Sofia trying to sound reassuring to her friend after her performance. Sofia had to admit that it was not an easy course, but both she and Veronica made it. Even if Veronica was more worn out than she was. Leo was about to say something when Heath and Iliana approached them. [color=cd5c5c]"Hello Iliana and hello Heath."[/color] Leo said in a friendly manner. [color=cd5c5c]"I am Leo."[/color] Adoptive brother? Leo thought, there is a story there, but by the way Iliana spoke of her father. It meant to him that she probably did not wish to talk about it. Which, considering his own reluctance to speak about the details of his own father. Leo can understand, and there is a time and place for everything, and now is not that time. [color=#9966cc]"Hello Iliana, and nice to see you again, Heath."[/color] Which Sofia's face lit up with a smile when shortbread cookies were brought up. [color=#9966cc]"Those would hit the spot right about now after training, and I am glad you remembered."[/color] Nothing like cookies after a workout like this one, and home-baked ones as well. [color=#9966cc]"Yeah, you guys can sit with us."[/color] Then Sofia remembered that Leo was there and went to ask him. [color=#9966cc]"You are okay with this, right?"[/color] [color=cd5c5c]"Yeah, I am fine with that, Sofia,"[/color] saying matter-of-factly. [color=#9966cc]"Good,"[/color] Sofia smiled, and the two of them would wait to see what River had to say. Which did not take long. After listening to what River had to say about the camper's times. Both of them had their thoughts about it. With Leo, hearing that his sibling Trinity beat the course the fastest. It made him all the more wanting to meet his sibling. Since it was something that she got first, while he was tied for second. Hopefully, the daughter of Ares will be nice enough to talk to him. She was in the last group, and there was only one woman in that group, so he finally had a name to a face. Now, to find the right time to approach and talk to her. Unless he just says screw it and talks to her now. Sofia, on the other hand, while she was glad she did not have to go again. The fact that Veronica had to go again dampened her mood. [color=#9966cc]"It looks like you have to go again, Veronica... "[/color] The sorriness in her voice was there. At least she can take her time this time, but as Sofia thought about whether she would wait here for Veronica to finish her second run. Sofia did not know if Veronica would like that, after thinking about it. Sofia will feel better if she stays with Veronica for now. Unless Veronica had a problem with it. [color=#9966cc]"Veronica, if it is okay with you, I think I will stay until you are one with your second course."[/color] Sofia then turned to Leo, [color=#9966cc]"what about you Leo? Are you going to stay?"[/color] [color=cd5c5c]"Hmmm, probably not, and I think I am going to go soon."[/color] Leo started collecting his things. But Leo had a curious look on his face. [color=cd5c5c]"So how do you all feel about River so far?"[/color] Admittedly, Leo is still making up his mind about the guy, but so far. Leo does not see anything bad with River yet. Either way, Leo would wait for a reply, and Sofia would wait to see what Veronica's response to her staying was. [hr] Interact - Veronica, Iliana, Heath | Mentions - Trinity, Duke, River
