Camp Half Blood Campers' Correspondence a Year Later-
[Ramona Winneford to Trix Winneford]
All the new kids at the camp has made for gossiping gold, especially all the Returnee campers they called in to help manage the overflow. For example: while half the guys in the Hermes cabin are smitten for their female Returnee, she's totally head over heels for the Dionysis Returnees, with particular favoring emphasis on the louder one, whose Frat boy attitude combined with his rugged good looks have made him a particular favorite with both the male and female camp members. They seem to have started a craze of setting up statues of the gods outside their representative cabins. This seems to have gone down well with most of the campers and management, except for Dionysis himself, who has made of habit of periodically breaking off the bust of his representative statue of a beautiful, flowing haired youth and giving it to the satyrs who have begun forming a bit of a ring around the strawberry fields with them. So Returnees Hilary Third from Hermes and Frank Nestle from Dionysis are the official unofficial camp couple of the year so far, but they're certainly not the only ones. Rumor has it that there's a very strong friendship between the Ares' Returnee and new Wrestling and Field coach, Byron Yates, and Demeter's smaller Returnee and plant therapy instructor, Daneile Mitchell, nickname: Danny. This has been confirmed by the numerous sightings of Danny being sung over Byron's shoulder in order to be carried to instruction.
Camper relations are still going strong. After our previous couple of the century sacrificed their lives for the sake of the camp and the continuation of the gods and quite possibly the world as we know it, others flames have quickly brightened in the aftermath. The beloved relations between Eros' Sara Fletcher and Iris' Andez is still going strong, followed close second by the ever constant lovers' spat between the recently rehabilitated Enyo's Ashley Tetzlaff and Eris' Caine Flannery. And of course Morpheus' rehabilitated tall, dark, and handsome Jett Boyd with his lone wolf attitude has caught more than one females eye, although so far all attempts to catch the young man's attention have failed.
Of all of these, of course, take a back seat to the new old news couple of the century, Poseidon's Percy Jackson and Athena's Annabeth Chase. This couple has been firmly cemented as 'bound to happen' for several years, except our new oracle as upset the waters. There's nothing that could possibly get between the preestablished bond between Percy and Annabeth, but a few frightful explosions have professed that all is not well in paradise.
More on that at 11.
