Short chapter!

To RandomFanAuthor- OK, I know the whole Keeper thing isn't like the first bit, buuut it's part of my plan. And don't get me wrong, Calypso in the books is a sweetheart, but can come across as a prim princess in some scenes. I wanted her to be more human! And what better way to do that than sarcasm? :D

To HoO Fan- (chapter 53) Oh, hell yeah! Love Marvel! Been a Marvel fan long as I can remember!

Louisa looked up as the door opened. The meds around the bay stood to attention in perfect unison, fists over hearts.

"At ease." A tall man instructed. "Who is responsible for Louisa?"

"I am, sir." July stepped forward, saluting briefly. He raised a brow at her. "She is recovering, albeit slowly, sir. She's had ambrosia- their medicine- but she won't eat anything else." She finished in a growl, glaring at her charge. Louisa stared back. Boss regarded her, taking her under scrutiny.

"And how secure is our plumbing?"

"No repeats, sir, but… Joel wants to try that Zappy."

"That what?"

"That ugly tiara he made, sir. Zaps your brain."

"I heard the other demigod was helping." Jamal added. "Meant to be much improved now, sir."

"The one with the dragon?" Boss puzzled, patronising. Louisa bristled.

"Hey." She demanded. "He's a son of Hephaestus, he knows what he's doin', dipshit." The room froze, holding its breath. Boss fully turned to stare her down. Louisa glared back. Why should she fear some guy in a cape?

"You may not remember how things work around here, Louisa, and that is more than fine by me." Boss smiled without light, eyes stony and chilling. "But I can assure you, disrespect of any form is not tolerated."

"Agreed." Louisa said. "So don't go talkin' shit 'bout my friend or it won't be the plumbin' ya have ta worry about."

"Meds." Boss breathed. "You are dismissed." Louisa could almost see the dust cloud as the healers scarpered. He waited for the door to swing shut. "You and your friends have not even been here more than forty-eight hours." He said slowly, facing her once more. "In which time, your dragon has demolished our cafeteria and grounds, our plumbing was all but annihilated by one of your nightmares, your friend's inventions caused mass panic and are still causing damage, and you've pulled four of my best workers and Juni from their usual schedules and assignments. I am also convinced that that Calypso girl is sneaking into our stores for food, as she cannot get past the guards."

"What guards?"

"The ones protecting our weapons storage. She caught wind that your supplies are in there and seems rather determined to get them back."

"Yeah, she is. Ain't seein' ya point here."

"My point is- you all need to leave. And soon. We maintain a tight, well-oiled, high-security operation around here and your presence is jeopardising that."

"Get in line. My presence jeopardises tonnes of shit."

"I'm well aware." He snided. "How long will you be staying?"

"Mm, dunno. Might be a dick 'n' drag it out for a while." She shrugged, ignoring the resultant twinge in her chest.

Boss said nothing for a moment, that scrutiny becoming all too familiar. Louisa held his eye. "Is ya name actually Boss? Bet you were called Eugene or somethin'."

"Can't tell you that."

"What, or you'll kill me?"

"Yes."

"Mmph. Hate ta break it to ya, but I can't kill me. Mother Earth couldn't kill me 'n' apparently there's a fuckton of bastards out there that can't kill me either, but very much want to."

"You always think so highly of yourself."

"Someone has to."

"You still don't understand, do you?"

"I understand shit, dude, me memory's gone."

"Give me one good reason to keep you or your friends alive."

"Hurt my friends," Louisa growled, "I dare you. That's your fuckin' reason."

"Mm. I give you until the end of the week. Plenty of time to recover and leave." He turned on his heel, pausing a few paces from the door. "Remember what I said about respect." She frowned, wanting to strangle him with his stupid cape. He arched an eyebrow at her and she glowered.

"Same to you then. Eugene."

Two questions for you all!

Number one- I am trying to draw these characters. I am not the greatest artist, but I am quite proud of them! Would anyone want to see? I shall be posting them on Tumblr, same username as this!

Number two- I have the Waking-Jason-Up-chapter good to go. I am, however, going to do that separately. For the main rewrite, he's still NAPPING. BUT, I will spin-off and do the variation of him being AWAKE. Sound OK?
