[Loki is lying on the bed provided to him. His mind is still reeling after all the information Chiron gave him. From going to someone that does not exist anymore to...this. A child of a Greek deity? Isn't...no, wasn't he a god himself? Could this be a second chance kind of thing?

And well, those monsters sure were a new thing. As well is this orange shirt...and for that he needs everyone's advice.

Everyone? Yes, everyone. And he opens the line of great communication through the rainbow on the necklace that has been given to him.]

Attention fellow campers, I have two rather important questions for you all.

[He holds up the shirt.]

Is this shirt mandatory? And am I allowed to propose a different design?

Comments

[cursedtosleep]

I've been wondering the same. These clothes are nothing like what I'm used to.

[not_a_troll]

This shirt needs a face of rage. Perhaps the one that expresses the sentiment of 'fuck yea', yes?

[Loki strokes his chin.]

Are you familiar with the 'fuck yea' rage face?

[cursedtosleep]

I beg your pardon? I've never heard of such a thing. [And such vulgar language.]

[not_a_troll]

Then it is most positive for me to say you have never heard from the world of online either. That is where the faces of rage reside.

[Too bad that all his attempts to get online result in tedious chases by a variety of monsters lately.]

Er... The faces of rage are symbols that describe a person's feelings. If one feels like 'fuck yea' you apply a 'fuck yea'-face of rage. But sometimes they also feel like 'me gusta' or 'challenge accepted'. It all corresponds with a face of rage.

I don't think Chiron-san would appreciate it very much. [But she's wearing her school uniform anyway. She's nervous about it though--if she washes it too much it will fall apart.]

[not_a_troll]

Why not? The centaur seems rather open to change. Change is good, you see?

Also, when in battle, orange really stand out. It is basically screaming 'slay me, slay me' and similar exclamations.

[hououji]

... What would you change it to?

[not_a_troll]

Perhaps a dashing green, a green that blends with the color of the bushes. I am also extremely fond of green.

[He looks at the shirt again (because he's not wearing it) and turns to the feed.]

The letters should be smaller as well.

[hououji]

... I don't think I would be opposed to green, personally...

[Says the girl wearing all green. It looks good on her and she does realize that.

Orange does nothing for her complexion, her sister would have Things to Say about this.]

[not_a_troll]

[Loki nods enthusiastically.]

See? Green is the way to go. I am also quite sure that the ancient Greek heroes who carry names ending with 'eus' did not wear orange during battle either.

[bibliophilism]

What kind of design did you have in mind?

[not_a_troll]

Something not orange. And different letters. And a print. A feline of great lol, perhaps.

There are so many better options than this orange color.

[bibliophilism]

You could ask Mr. Chiron and propose your design to him! I don't see anything wrong with having different colors of shirts.

[not_a_troll]

I think Mr. Chiron will greatly disapprove. I think we should take a head start, so to speak. Slowly integrate the new design into the camp.

One person starts wearing it, the next day there will be two and so on, and so on.

[bibliophilism]

But how sure are you about that? You never know till you ask him and show him your design.

[airdives]

You're telling me. The orange looks awful with my hair.

[ It's so deadpan that you might not even catch it for a joke unless you squint. ]

[not_a_troll]

[Loki leans closer to the screen to determine he can agree or disagree with that statement.]

Really? I do not entirely agree with that statement. But I shall note it.

'New design should not clash with a maiden's hair'

[He holds a scribbled paper up.]

See?

[airdives]

[ Hah, that gets a small, but serious, laugh out of her. ]

Thanks. Maybe we can try black next time. Or purple.

[not_a_troll]

Black and purple? Hmmm...

[Oh, Loki knows this...]

They are such colors of doom and gloom. I would prefer orange over purple or black, though. But not over green or maybe...maybe blue.

[airdives]

You seem to have a lot of favorites.

Black is just what I wore at home. I don't really have a favorite. [ Gold, maybe. She considers this. ] I'd settle for gold.

[daughteroflight]

Dunno about mandatory but it beats going around shirtless.

[ yes she does also have the blouse she appeared at Olympus in but let's be real. ]

[not_a_troll]

Aye. Shirtless is only applicable to bad boys and rebels. Therefore I probably need to be shirtless.

I am truly thankful for you pointing that out to me, maiden.

[daughteroflight]

[ ...sure let's go with "maiden". ]

You're welcome. So: rebel, bad boy, or rebellious bad boy?

[not_a_troll]

All of them and a little dash of more.

[daughteroflight]

Uh huh. Got a name? Just so, y'know, I know who to look out for.
