straight up not having a good time
who: Leo Valdez & anyone else!
what: a new demigod has entered the school
when: november
where: various places
warnings: n/a, will add if needed
a:
[Finding himself drenched in a bathroom was not what Leo was expecting today. He had stopped Gaea, died in the process, but Festus was supposed to give him the Physician's Cure so he'd come back but--- where the hell was he? This was not Ogygia. His first thought was maybe Percy drenched him to put out the flames of his fantastic explosion, since he was definitely soaked with sea water, but as his mind cleared and the nausea settled, he realized...
This was a school bathroom. It wasn't camp, but it was...weirdly familiar??
Uh.
But as he looked around, trying to take in his surroundings while feeling like literally garbage, his glance into one of the mirrors left him breathless. He watched in the mirror as a memory of his mom played out, her showing him how to fix something in the garage, but he blinked and it was gone. Just him, staring back at himself. In the ugliest school uniform he had ever seen.]
What the-- Alright, Aphrodite, you're hilarious! But I was busy! Can I get back to saving Calypso already??? [Because who else likes throwing him into random places in a new outfit? He had no idea how anyone would find this stylish, though.
Anyone wandering on the 2nd floor might hear him cursing in the bathroom, or find him wandering around, still soaked as he tries to figure out what the hell was going on.]
b:
[Leo was not happy about being here. He's dry and getting the lay out of things but he doesn't like it. First off, it was another freaking boarding school. How many of these places had he been sent? This one just felt....way more weird. Especially since he had weird, vague memories of being here before. It made no sense. He was glad to find his Camp Half Blood shirt in his locker, so he absolutely threw that and his army jacket back on, not even caring if he was technically supposed to be wearing the school uniform. Even if he did put it on, he was going to tear it up and make it cool, so. Better him stick with this.
But he still felt naked. No fire, no magic toolbelt. No friends. No Festus. And no Calypso. He hated this. He was supposed to be saving her and getting back to his friends. And now he was here, in this....school. Felt more like purgatory. Some trick from a god. Or maybe Gaea dragged him down to the Underworld when he killed her. Or...Tartarus. Either way, it sucked.
He's still wandering around, so you might run into him from time to time. You might find him around holding his hands out in front of him, trying to will his fire to appear with no luck. But if you happen to come across the young demigod while the ghosts are appearing, you might catch a glimpse of him looking absolutely terrified. He'll play it off if you approaching him, but ghosts freaked him out. Like. A lot.]
c:
[Guess who found the workshop? Leo was over the moon. Even if he was miserable here, building things made him feel so much better. Anyone that comes through there might find him tinkering absently. It was a good distraction.
If you happen to be in a class with him, you might catch him doing the same. He definitely isn't paying attention in class, anyway. He was too ADHD for that on a good day, but he literally doesn't care about anything the teacher is saying. Just wait for him to show off what he's making. It'll definitely make a scene.]

[Wildcard! Feel free to hit me up for other scenarios!]

Do I look like the kind of guy that gets swirlied? [DON'T ANSWER THAT WE ALL KNOW THE TRUTH.]
I was just minding my own business, kicking Mother Earth's dirt butt, and BAM. Here I am. Soaked. In this ridiculous outfit.
no subject
[ did you expect him to seriously not answer that...
dito crosses his arms, leaning his hip against the sink. ]
'Cause it looks like you got your ass kicked.
no subject
He's a super hot ladies man!!]
I still don't know how I ended up soaked. Probably Poseidon, doing Percy a favor or something, I dunno.
no subject
dito rolls his eyes. ]
Now you're gonna start blaming gods and shit?
no subject
I mean. 90% of everything that's gone wrong in my life was because of the gods, so. Seems fair to say this was probably on them, too.
no subject
[ NORMAL ADVICE. ]
no subject
[He wouldn't normally jump to agreeing on just killing things that made your life messed up but Gaea did kill his mom and was trying to kill him and his friends, SOOOO. That's fair advice.]
no subject
Did you crush them? Did they scream for mercy? Was it fun? Hahahaha... Killing deities isn't easy, you know. You've gotta give me the details.
[ this is the worst. ]
no subject
Uhhh. I mean. We just had to get her away from the ground, so I used my bronze dragon to grab her, then rigged a massive explosion, and...Poof. Bye-bye, dirt lady.
[Kindly leaving out that he poofed himself to the Underworld with that one, too.]
