If you would've told Percy Jackson a year ago he wasn't the only prophecized demigod with the weight of the world on his shoulders, he would've been elated.

MENODORA WISHED THE BONFIRE had never happened.
At first, it started off rather fun. Travis and Connor seemed to have adopted Nico as their third musketeer, telling him about their best pranks and pranks in the process. Menodora couldn't help but smile at the sight. Even Nico himself looked surprised that someone found interest in both him and his game.
"We should prank someone based on what card we pull," Connor suggested.
"Yeah! Imaging we pull Dad, that means we prank three campers from rank three and above," Travis smiled maniacally, reading and translating the Hermes card into the Stoll language of pranks.
On the other hand, Aspen was telling Menodora about all the main gossip at camp; something about Drew Tanaka dumping yet another Ares kid for the sake of dumping him. Some Demeter kid that supposedly trapped the Athena cabin with poison ivy because one of them stepped on a flower. And some other absurd things Menodora couldn't help but forget.
"I'm very invested in people's life, including yours," Aspen admitted.
"Mine?" Menodora asked.
"Yeah, it looks promising," Aspen nodded, randomly kicking Ethan's back. "With Percy and all."
"Hey!" Ethan exclaimed.
"Percy isn't my life," Menodora protested. "We're barely friends."
"From friends to hopeless romantics," Aspen sighed, smiling sweetly.
Menodora rolled her eyes. "Whatever you say, Aspen."
"What're you guys talking about that requires me being abused once again?" Ethan asked, turning toward the two girls.
"Menodora's love life," Aspen said with a wide smile.
"Ignore her," Menodora said to Ethan.
Ethan shook his head before muttering 'girls' under his breath. Ethan turned his back to them again.
"Isn't he so annoying?" Aspen asked, staring at Ethan's back. Menodora agreed.
Chiron stomped his hoof on the ground, the sound silencing the campers.
"Campers! As you know, earlier this morning Percy, Grover and Thalia came back with two new campers and the Hunters." Chiron nodded politely at them. Most of them so lovingly scowled at him in return.
