[Since breakfast, Minato has had some ideas. And some problems have formed in his original ideas. And generally, he's just been thinking. And avoiding the goddamn lava wall. But mostly thinking. He's come to at least a few conclusions.]

I was wondering if anyone in Cabin 6 could help me with something. I want to know some of the old stories of the gods. If we're going to meet them, we should know more than just their names. [And they should know if the gods have ever been defeated and if anyone has ever survived the gods deciding it was time for them to be killed just because they were kids of the powerful ones.]

[Another moment.]

Does anyone else know how to control the darkness? [That makes it seem like he's evil oh my god. He should've found a better way to say it.] It could be useful, after all.

[He's just trying to figure out what cards he might have in his hands if it does end up that the gods decide to murder them.]

[A message just to SEES members (yes, Ryoji counts) and Hades kids]

We should get to know Manhattan. If things go wrong.

[No offense to Zeus and Poseidon kids, but these are the people he feels he has a moral obligation to keep not dead.

Minato has never been one for depending on deities to get things done. And he's not entirely comfortable with the idea that he has a dad who hasn't even bothered to do more than cause a blackout to greet him. But he is praying with all of his everything to his father right now that things don't go wrong. Yes, he knows the irony of praying to the God of the Underworld that he and his friends don't die.]

Should we ask Chiron-san if we could get a map beforehand?

It might be better if he doesn't know. [... Iris, goddess of the rainbow, please do Minato a favor and don't let Zeus know.]

Why not? I mean... we can just tell him we wanted to know where we could go to, can't we?

I'd rather check Cabin 6 first. [He just doesn't want Chiron to catch on yet.]

[Ken looks like he's thinking about this for a while before:]

Understood. What kind of places should we find? Manhattan is really crowded.

[pheromonecoffee]

Places we can all find. Ones that where we can blend in easily.

How are we going to blend in with these? It's summer, but should we bring something to wear over them?

[He tugs on the shirt. They're hella noticeable, Minato-san.]

It's New York City. It's a strange place. [People dress funny, if the TV is right about it.]

[orangehoodie]

But wouldn't orange stand out anyway?

[pheromonecoffee]

[There is a

long

moment.]

You always wear orange.

[orangehoodie]

[Ken stares at Minato.]

A lot of orange.

[pheromonecoffee]

It's a big city.

[orangehoodie]

But even if it's a big city, if there's a bunch of people wearing orange together people will notice, I think.

[pheromonecoffee]

We'll be spread out.

[orangehoodie]

... Right. It'll be okay. [It's still a question.]
