A shiver went down Maddies spine as Colby whispered to him. The hairs on his arms standing up but luckily hidden by the sleeves of his new garb. Sure Colby was only relaying information about who this woman was and where she belonged. But the feeling of having him so close, the soft touch of his breath as he spoke to him in whispers, it made him tingle. His eyes went wide as he heard that she was the Princess of this region. Of course now he felt like a complete fool for having asked, but how was he supposed to know? He decided not to dwell on the idea and quietly cleared his throat.

"Same here. I think we may have even added a bit of flair to it, and with new faces it'll be harder for them to spot us. Can't be made if they don't even know who we are." There was an odd sort of grin on Maddie's face as he spoke. One that matched Colbys, especially when he was feeling particularly mischievous. He wasn't sure if he should mention the genie's lamp they'd found and how it would be worked into the plan, so he kept quiet on that for now. "Lucky for us, Colbs and I have some talent for sleight of hand. So we should be able to handle it." For a moment it felt very Oceans 11, as if they should break down the plan right then and there while simultaneously doing the act to succession.

Max listened intently on what Veil had to say. She had some good points, and more knowledge than he did on certain matters. Sinister was on the Quiet Council. That gave him a certain amount of power on this island that he could likely throw around. The question of why still hung in the air. It didn't make sense for him to have just done so without some scheme layered behind it. The idea it may have been to get under Renegade proved to have some merit. Perhaps they would need to speak to her, find out what her relationship with Sinister is. Max froze for a second, thinking. Her powers could potentially be used to suffuse a lifetime of memories into a host. She showed Max his true self back in Wandaworld. Could she have given Jack all his memories after having been cloned without his notice?

Max didn't want to throw around accusations. It'd get them nowhere and would only make him seem more paranoid than he is. This would be a thread he'd need to follow by himself. He tried to focus more on a plan, when Callie walked past and placed his ball back onto his nightstand. She asked him if he had a Ouija Board, and Max shook his head quietly. [Color=aba400]"No. Much good it would do anyway. I teased about the idea earlier but…Ben hasn't shown any ability to manipulate physical items within our world. So chances are he can't move the planchet. Not without possessing one of us, which again he's never shown to be able to do. [/i]However[/i]..."[/color] Max snapped his fingers, magic trailing off like a spark before forming a Spirit Box beside him. He turned on the instrument, sound emanating from it. Static constantly being cut off, the speed hardly allowing for words to be formed unless a spirit willed them so. "This noisy little thing is what Caspers named after. It's a Spirit Box. Supposedly ghosts can talk to us through it. It picks up what they say and uses the radio waves to transmit it or something. So…Ben, if you're here, can you try and use it? I'd love to hear your input."

Harry smiled at Sunshine as she gave him the best compliment she could muster. Kids. He thought to himself. He figured one day she'd find a way to open up more, she'd already grown so much from when he first met her, having her actually tear up in front of someone…it was huge in comparison to where he'd seen her start. "That's what I've been told. I give excellent, just ok advice. Best ok advice there ever is to hear." He said teasingly. Their conversation was cut short as Legion joined them at the table, sitting next to Harry, covered in a thin layer of dirt, scratches, and a grin that made him mildly nervous. "Hey David. Uh, why do you look like you just lost a match with a mulberry bush?" Harry managed to chuckle out.

Marrow came back, sliding his drink towards him while comforting Sunshine. Harry had his concerns about her at first. She seemed like a rough and tumble kid that would only bring Sunshine trouble, but he could see that she really cared for her and offered her support no one else was capable of doing. He thanked Marrow for the drink, taking a sip from the cup before quirking an eyebrow at Sunshine. "I rather like Harry thank you very much. Makes me feel like I don't have to be a hero 24/7. Besides I'm only ever really Echo when I…well you know Echo myself."

Demi's head sunk into his shoulders with a twinge of embarrassment at Kristin's comment. He quickly shook it off, focusing on the questions at hand. When Zeke finally began to speak, he made sure to try and listen intently. Back at school they had had morning announcements talking about PDA, what it was, and how it shouldn't be done. Turns out it didn't stand for the hunky Paul David Anderson, nor did it mean it was a Personal Digital Assistant. Demi never expected those silly owning announcements to actually come in handy someday. After all, he never expected that someone would be willing to get close enough to him to not only know him, but actually like him enough to be in a relationship. He was just the tall, lanky, pale kid with no friends. Worse off he had the ability to shift and had no idea why, though he knew it should stay hidden.

But here he was, side to side alongside a golden haired jock whose eyes shot bolts of lightning down his spine. Whose touch sent shivers crawling across his skin, and whose smile could melt even the coldest of hearts. But as Zeke finished talking, Demi couldn't help but falter in his step. Stopping dead in his tracks as he watched Zeke walk on, the words he'd just spoken dancing through his mind. No one has done what you have done for me without expecting anything in return. For a moment, it was as if he could see a glimpse into Zeke's past, he could feel the layers of emotion behind those words. He understood the weight of what he'd done for the time since giving him the gift. Demetri didn't know what to say, but before he knew it a moment of silence clung to the air and he realized that his mouth was slightly agape.

Demi took a half step forward, the ground sloshing beneath his foot as he froze again. He wanted to run up to Zeke, to hug him and hold him tightly, but he also wanted to respect his boundaries and didn't know how far was too far in terms of PDA. "Tch. You make it really hard not to want to show some affection when you talk like that Kel." He said wagging a finger towards the son of Apollo. "I'd love nothing more than to just run up there and hug the ever loving shite out of you, but I'll respect your boundaries." Demetri moved closer to Zeke, taking on the first step so as to match eyesight with him. "But as soon as we're out of sight, you're getting the biggest kiss you got that?" It was a playful threat, one accompanied by the biggest grin Demi had ever had the pleasure of displaying.

Cassian let out a slight groan as Dean had to leave for the meeting. On one hand he was glad to have that subject changed and dropped. On the other hand, he had no clue as to what he should be doing now. He looked around the Dining Pavilion, scanning faces and searching for a sign of something to do. Quite a few campers seemed to be heading towards the Big House for the big meeting and vote for the liaison between Roman and Greek camps. The idea alone caused his eyes to involuntarily roll. The Romans couldn't even bother to join them for breakfast, and their leader was so adamantly against his aid. None of it made sense, but he tried to shove the thoughts aside.

Finally Cassian's gaze landed on Leda. Her girlfriend would be attending the meeting, being the only child of Poseidon at camp, and from the looks of it she didn't seem raring to go shopping. Her necklace held four beads, which meant that she was most likely always prepared to go on a quest. Cassian himself tried to keep his own supplies on the off chance he was ever picked for one. He said his goodbyes to Dean, making his way over towards Leda with his best smile. "Hey, Leda right? Might having a bit of a friendly spar before you go off on your Quest? Could help loosen up your muscles while the rest of your team decides the liason?" He wasn't sure if she would take him up on his offer, or if he'd be any good at fighting someone who could move so far. But if anything this would help him train his eyes against faster opponents.

Maddie sat down when instructed. Waiting for their mysterious host to show up. Apparently she always had a flair for the dramatic. Either that, or she was overly cautious as to who and what was let into her chambers with her. Maddie absently tapped a tune along his leg, with two fingers. The quick rapid successions of A Very Merry Unbirthday caused his fingers to dance atop his thigh nervously. After a time, of what felt like eternity, a woman appeared wreathed in thin veils made up of a color that couldn't quite agree on if it was green or blue. The material was embroidered with golden designs and trimming. She was stunning, and there was an air about her.

Maddies fingers halted all sound. Frozen in place as he leaned forward a bit in his seat. Immediately she questioned the identity of the three newest additions, and it made Maddie wish he could simply forward all to the resistance so that they'd know they weren't spies or something. He looked down at what he was wearing and then back towards Jasmine, for the first time feeling a bit as if he was cheated in the costume design. Merlin could've given them clothes like this? "H-hi, I'm Maddie. Pleasure to meet you. What uh what land are you from?" He felt stupid asking but he hadn't heard of her name before. "Oh a-and n-nice clothes. Wish I h-had a pair"

Max leaned back slightly in his bed. Placing his hands to his sides and unknowingly placing one onto Ben's lap. His lips pursed as Jack's name was mentioned. Of course he didn't want to be involved with this. No one in their right mind would get close to this man with a ten foot pole. Yet here they were discussing the possibility of seeking his aid. None of this sat right with Max. His stack began to churn with unease as he shifted his position slightly. "I can't know for certain, but perhaps Sinister brought Jack back as a form of pawn. Maybe a way to get closer to Sunshine. We knows he messed with his mind before and done similar things…" He trailed off in thought, trying to piece together pieces he barely had. "Whatever he wants it can't be good. He can't be trusted. If I knew it was safe I'd ask Ben to snoop around his lab and see if he could find something. But if Sinister is capable of dealing with soul transference then I wouldn't want to risk Ben in that manner."

Max let out a heavy sigh as he looked towards the ground. Books sat at his feet, a thrown shirt, and some wads of paper from his work on this project. "I'm also afraid of what he might do if I owe him a favor. It's bad enough I feel Selene eyeing me up like a prime steak, I can't imagine what he would do if he had the use of my powers at his fingertips." Max took another deep breath in trying to think of other avenues before shaking his head slowly. "As for allies, I'm sure Strange would tell me I'm messing with the natural laws of this world and should halt my research, Wanda may be better help though I doubt I can reach her and convince her otherwise. There's Selene but I don't trust her, and Pixie may be capable of helping. She knows more than she let's on when it comes to souls but I don't know how to approach her on this."

Max wanted so badly to ask Strange for help. Even if he couldn't instruct him directly, knowing the name or history of another Sorcerer who had done the same would be of immense help. Maybe Casper could try to summon them for communication, see what knowledge they can gain, but chances were that any Sorcerer looking for such power may have been doing so down a darker path. "All I have are theories. Nothing can be certain or concrete until it's actually put to the test. But if this does work, if we can bring them back…with his permission I'd like to visit Ben's grave. If I can bring him back too…it seems only fair."

Harry rolled his eyes and chuckled as Sunshine questioned the morality of the rules on drinking. Of course she would. She's young, rebellious, and does as she pleases. But that didn't make her a bad kid, just a kid. His chuckle turned into more of a grunt as he felt her punch him in the arm. Rubbing the spot she hit with a bit of a hiss of pain. "Ok OK you're not nice." Harry replied, still smiling at her. He looked upon all the pty seats, ghostly outlines of those who were gone shadowing the table as he knew all too well what Sunshine was feeling. He looked over towards Marrow, watching as she waited for Blob to make drinks, before he shifted his gaze back towards Sunshine. There was a heavy sigh, as if he was removing a great weight from his chest but couldn't get any of the air back.

"I miss them too kid." Harry's lip twitched, a falter in his smile as he looked back at the table. "I wish I could tell you that it gets easier. That as the days go by you feel it less and less. But it doesn't. I won't lie to you. I know how you feel because I've been here before. And it doesn't hurt any less now than it did the first time I lost someone. But we keep living. And we keep living our lives for them. Keep them in our hearts and minds and press on how we know they would want us to. The pain will always be there, but you'll learn to manage it. Somedays it may seem unbearable, others may not be so bad, but you're not alone in this. We are all here for you. Trust me, if I could do anything about it I would. In a heartbeat. But I don't have that kind of power. But what I do have is you guys, and…two arms that can lend a hug if you need it."

It was amazing how full of himself Zeke could be. I didn't think you would? Normally that sort of arrogance would push Demetri further away, but somehow Zeke managed to make it work for him and it just made him seem that much more attractive. At this point Demetri's face was fully blushed and the heat from all the embarrassment and hormones was making him hot. He wanted to lift his head up, let the cold air hit his skin and help cool him down. But then they'd both see just how bad he'd gotten in such a short amount of time thanks to Zeke and Kristin.
He sounded so confident while talking to Kris, something Demi could never do. He finally looked up, glancing over towards the Aphrodite table as he wished that their mother nor them would get involved. Growing up Demi had read many Greek tales, and he couldn't recall a single one that mentioned Aphrodite that didn't also put complications along the path of the relationship.

Chiron had begun speaking once again, having seen how long it took for the others to arrive and not wishing to hold the other campers hostage because of them. That did, of course, mean that someone had to play messenger with the Romans and hope that this time the messages would go through. Demetri had hardly been able to touch his food, most of it mostly eaten by others. That didn't concern him at the moment though, as Zeke untangled himself and began to head towards the infirmary. Demi quickly got his plate and mouthed an apology towards Kristin as he dashed towards the flames and tossed the entire meal into it before hurriedly following behind Zeke.

A part of him wanted to reach out and grab his hand, hold it like they did in the infirmary. It was only fitting that would be where they talked about all this, it was after all where it all began. Demetri caught up to Zeke, gently tapping his knuckles against his, hinting at what he wanted but leaving the choice ultimately to Zeke. "Alright, so walk and talk. Good, because I'm not gonna lie mate I'm a little bit confused and flustered." Much of the red had begun to fade, leaving only a band of pink that stretched from cheek to cheek. "If you want to date me then why did you nudge me off of you? And is this like a public thing or private or…" Demi had so many thoughts running through his mind that it almost felt blank. He felt as if he had a million questions only to come up empty when he tried to think of one.

Cassian pursed his lips at the new question. It was probably bad that the name had slipped out from his tongue, or had he ever even learned it in the first place? He'd decidedly set that question aside for later. Cass looked down at his plate of food, thinking of how best to answer his brother before letting out a reluctant sigh. "From what I've heard, one of the Roman has contracted a curse created by Zeus himself. The curse of lycanthropy. To my knowledge there is no known cure. But I personally don't see reason as to why that should deter anyone from attempting to find one."

Cassian looked back up at Dean, looking into his eyes and then past them as he began to think. "I can only assume there's a handful of ways to go about it. Either by imploring the gods to speak to Zeus and see if he is able to remove the curse, though given the state of things I find that hard to pull off, or perhaps see if the gods could offer us a quest. Something to lead us to a remedy to help rid her of her curse. It isn't hers to bear, so why should she? But then there's the issue of her being Roman. I'm not sure if that would complicate things, given that Zeus isn Jupiter and all that." Cassiam hadn't considered the duality of the gods too much. But now he was beginning to wonder if that could play a part into all this.

Maddie's mind was already beginning to race with ideas of what the Land of Oz might look like. Speculating how much from which stories were true and how much were fabricated for a good telling. A part of him wished the story of Wicked was true, though he wasn't one to pine after a bad guy, he thought the story of Elphaba was just too well told and tragic. That was enough to keep him busy on the walk there as Colby paid mind to the stray cats his father was seemingly plagued by. It was however useful in helping them get around, and just as if a track was switched so too was Maddies thoughts. He now began to wonder of the possibilities that hanging around his father would awaken some form of feline compass. Allowing Colby to follow the path of cats to their desired destination.

By the time they'd reached the door, Maddie had already imagined several fantasy scenarios in which Colby befriended one feline or another. Even the dreaded Displacer beasts of D&D made an appearance and were held by Colbys cat-like charms. Maddie hurried inside, holding his bag tight to himself while they shuffled into the room. When they asked for their belongings to be placed, he only gripped his bag tighter. His hand shook for a moment, before he had to remind himself this is a hideout. They were no friends to Jafar, and for that matter Maleficent. Or so he hoped, because if magic truly was illegal here, then Merlin's book certainly wouldn't do to be found within his bag. Maddie placed his bag into the bin, putting the playing cards inside his bag reluctantly. "W-w-we'll get them b-back right?" He asked the large man who'd opened the door.

Max tossed the rubber ball up in the air a few more times, answering Veil as he waited for Callie to say her goodbyes and cross through the portal. "Not yet no. But I have a few theories on how I could talk to Ben. Especially given now that there appears to be more on souls than I had even considered possible." He tossed the ball up again. Callie crossed through the portal and Max waved his hand for it to close behind her so they could finally have some privacy. Without wasting a second, Veil dropped a bomb on Max. One arm lay outstretched before him while the other was towards his side frozen in the wave he used to close the portal. Stunned didn't even begin to describe what he was at that moment. The racquetball came falling down, hitting him in the face before bouncing off and rolling on the floor towards the girls.

Callie was kind enough to fill the silence with further explanation about what it was Veil was talking about. Max laid in his bed for a few more moments. Thoughts running through his head. He recalled meeting Jack's father back at the Cherry Bomb. His grotesque lab, the crazed state they found Nightcrawler in, and the choice Emma Frost had given Leighton and him. Max took a deep, sharp, breath in. Exhaling slowly as he sat up and off the edge of the bed. "I can only assume you're telling me this because of my plan to help resurrect mutants? So. I have a lot of questions if that's the reason why. How long do these clones take to grow? What's needed for them? Does that jackass have control over them or are they truly free? Let's not forget what he did to Jack not too long ago. How did he manage to get the soul back? Or is that even actually Jack? And finally, at least for now, what's the cost? I doubt he'd be willing to help us out of goodwill." There was a slight edge to Max's voice. It was clear he had a bad relation with Mister Sinister, and his eyes wouldn't meet Veils or Callies, he almost wished he could see Ben right now just as a form of comfort.

If you hung around Sunshine enough it wasn't hard to tell when something's shifted inside of her. Harry couldn't quite tell exactly what it was, whether it was the subject matter of their conversation, the amount of friends and family leaving the table, or perhaps that the conversation had somehow become three sided, but something changed fundamentally inside of Sunshine. Marrow politely asked him if he wanted any drinks, to which he responded "Pimms cup if they have it, Mojito if they don't. And if somehow that's not an option just something refreshing and light if you could?" Harry hadn't really taken a look at what they had, for all he knew there were concoctions named after the 'Heroes of Genosha' which made him wonder if there was a drink after him, and what it would taste like.

Once Marrow had left, He turned in his seat to face Sunshine. "First off, are you two even old enough to drink? Or is this another one of those Genosha things? Secondly, what's wrong kiddo? I can see something's eating away at you and I'd be an ass not to try and help at least." He moved closer towards Sunshine, leaving enough space so she didn't feel smothered. "Especially when it's helping someone as amazing, sweet, and special as you, so spill. Talk to me, let's see if there's anything I can do." Though if he was being honest with himself, he doubted there was much he could do. More often than not he felt washed up, like a bad clone.

Kristin's question ran round in circles in Demis' head. He hadn't quite pieced it together that she was referring to Zeke and himself until he felt a bit of a nudge coming from Zeke's shoulder. Panic instantly hit him, freezing him in place as he thought about what he'd just done. His heart sank to his stomach as he sat up slowly, rubbing his eyes as he scoffed at the question as if it was some unbelievable thing. He could feel Zeke's leg still around his, and he was glad to know he hadn't messed up that much. But before Demi could utter any words, he was walled by the sentence that came next. There was a sharp and quiet gasp. Loud enough for them three to hear but soft enough to be drowned out by the hum of everything else happening around them. His cheeks flushed a bright red as he wished to just get up and run.

Words choked up in his throat as he tried to find what to say. Every failed thought getting caught in a jam that helped form the lump he felt. Finally Demetri got out "Y-you…uh you were going to ask me?" His usually pale face was now bright red as he looked between Kristin and Zeke. "Heh. Oh um. OK, I don't know if I should answer right now or if you wanted a more private setting or-" Anxiety and embarrassment was quickly filling inside. He felt hot, as if ever eye at the camp was staring at him waiting to hear. He looked down at the table before once again burying his head into his arms to hide his face. Demi spoke in a low muffled tone towards Zeke. "I'd really like that. If you wanted to, that is."

Cassian was smiling behind his cup as he drank his tea. Of course the whole cabin would have to work together and agree to it, but the idea of joining the games in some form of sibling comradery just rubbed him the right way. Already the tone of this day was shaping up to be much better than the last, especially given what had happened the night before. Chiron began to give off his usual morning announcements while Cassian halfway listened as he ate his food. The centaur shortly stopped his speech, noting that several people were missing for the meeting and was now most likely waiting for their arrival before he could continue onto more pressing matters.

The lul in the speech gave Dean just the opportunity to ask Cassian a question that would easily sour his mood. He rolled a strawberry side to side on his plate with one finger, avoiding Dean's eyes for a moment as he thought of an answer. "I'm not exactly sure what I think of them to be honest. They're reclusive, secretive, and some of the most entitled untrusted people I've ever met. But on the same coin they lost their home. They're way of living, friends, families, a future as far as they could tell. So it's easy to see why they may act the way they do. Hell being Roman could be no different than being within a closed practice. Father had an entire cult that it's members weren't able to speak about. But their clique-ness makes it hard to get to know any of them. One of them stood out to me though, and I'd like to help her even if I don't know how." Cassian picked the berry up and took a bite, smiling towards Dean.

Max couldn't help but smile at those two. Something about their relationship just seemed right. The perfect balance of order and chaos mixed into one unit that was now thinking of raising a child. Sure the idea of it seemed a bit…terrifying. Max didn't even know if Casper could stay focused long enough to change a diaper, but if James or him ever needed help, Max would be willing to lend a hand. For a brief moment the idea of raising one of his own crossed his mind. After all there were now a plethora of orphans thanks to the attack, but somehow being a single dad whose constantly tipping along the lines of magic and mayhem just seemed like a bad start to being father of the year.

Max's concentration broke as a familiar face began to approach them. He hadn't thought much of it, Callie was part of the Underground so why wouldn't she come visit at the Lagoon? But what she said next caught him off guard. He couldn't help but wonder if he was in some sort of trouble, perhaps he'd done something wrong, or they found out about his attempt to alter Selene's spell, but whatever it was he had to face the music. No more running. "Uh. Sure. Mind if Ben tags along? He's sorta my date for the evening while James and Casper have some alone time." Max held his hand slightly out for Ben to take, something he was sure he couldn't do but the thought counted for something.

Max looked around the Green Lagoon and quickly realised there was no privacy to be found. Especially for those whose names and faces the entire island knew. He thought back towards what Sunshine was saying about the Real Housewives of Genosha and let out a tired sigh. "It's a bit crowded here though, mind if I take us elsewhere to talk?" Much like before with what he'd said about Ben, this was less of a question and more of a warning. Max turned his wrist as his fingers began to spark magic. Unfortunately that was all that happened at first. A second try produced a swirl of cosmic energy formed before the portal came to view and opened up a doorway towards a lush jungle landscape where he could've sworn he heard a dinosaur roaring off into the distance. Afraid to find out if he was right or not, Max tried for a third time, finally his and Sunshines room came into view. He crossed through and laid down on his bed, grabbing a nearby object and tossing it into the air before it fell back into his hands. "So what's up?"

Harry chuckled at Sunshines dig towards Casper. It was true the psychic mutant held a massively childish charm, and could hardly be seen as a father figure, but he was certain if anything that James would step in or Ben would talk Casper out of most idiotic ideas. His attention shifting back to Marrow and Sunshine, Harry smiled at Marrow's push to try asking Northstar out. It was a nice idea, finding someone, after how much time had passed now, even if some of it was spent on ice. Still, there was a pit of a feeling in his chest. She'd want him to be happy, but he'd feel bad knowing he'd always love her regardless of who he was with. Or so that's what he thought.

When Sunshine brought up Veil's potential interest in Northstars twin sister Aurora, he spread his hands as if to say he couldn't do much else. "Well then that's that I suppose. If anyone deserves happiness out of the two of us it's Val. Kid sis deserves a break, and if that means me stepping aside from Genoshas most eligible Bachelor then so be it. Oh and if any of you dare tell her I called her Val you'll find yourselves on the bad end of a nuggy you got it?" Harry teased with a wagged finger. As if cue, Veil came in with Callie who had spoken something to Max. Before long Max was conjuring portal's and Harry's lip curled slightly into a frown. "Not staying long i take it? Don't work too hard, Veil. Callie make sure she gets rest."
