A/N - Sorry for my longer-than-usual absence. Anyways, this article is leading up to Daughter of Khione's idea.
Demigods Are Now Able to Write Articles for Olympus Weekly: As the result of a petition from Athena and her demigod children, demigods will now be able to write articles for Olympus Weekly, as well as participating in the forumdiscussions.
Annabeth Chase: I signed. I was the first half-blood to sign it.
Malcolm: You don't have to be like that.
Annabeth Chase: Well, still, I was the first.
Malcolm: No, you weren't the first.
Annabeth Chase: Sure I was. You saw it when you signed it.
Malcolm: No, you were the second.
Annabeth Chase: I was the first of us, you know that.
Malcolm: Of us, yeah. But you weren't the first name.
Annabeth Chase: Of course not. Mom was.
Malcolm: Told you you weren't first.
Annabeth: I said I was the first demigod.
Malcolm: May I quote you from your second comment? "Well, still, I was the first."
Annabeth Chase: You knew what I meant. I was the first demigod to sign.
Malcolm: Well, I was the second.
Athena: The important thing is that we got enough signatures to make it a reality.
Annabeth Chase: Yeah. I'm going to write an article about architecture!
Athena: I look forward to reading it. What about architecture?
Annabeth Chase: You'll see.
Hermes: Athena, I doubt many demigods will write an article.
Annabeth Chase: I will.
Malcolm: So will I! And will the rest of our cabin.
Hermes: I mean, like, besides you guys.
Annabeth Chase: You never know. I'm sure lots of demigods have interesting ideas.
Hermes: We'll see. Nostros seeamos.
Artemis: Uh...translation?
Hermes: We'll see. We is nostros...or something like that...and see is a verb, and it this form it ends in amos, so it's nostros seeamos.
Apollo: Huh?
We will see 'bout what?
Could you be a bit clearer
In your language?
Artemis: First - Hermes, that was not Spanish. And Apollo, the last line was only four syllables.
Percy Jackson: This is the...at Westover Hall...a few weeks ago...just now...the third time you've had to tell him that.
Artemis: The six hundred eighty-ninth time, actually.
Apollo: Minus the six hundred eighty-nine times you were wrong.
Artemis: Not including the one time I was wrong.
Apollo: Whatever.
Athena: Back to the topic, guys. Demigods can now write articles here! Isn't that wonderful?
Hermes: Um...not really.
Dionysus: You kidding? - Of course it's wonderful! - Dude, we can write about everything! - The trireme battles - Capture the Flag - Percy and Annabeth -
Percy Jackson: Hey!
Dionysus: What? - Be honored - We didn't say anything offensive - Did we? - We may have - Blame Travis if that's what happened - You idiot! - What? - You did it again! - Did what again? - Gave away our identities!
Hermes: Not you two again!
Dionysus: What? - Please, let us write. - It's a learning experience, Dad. - It is! - We'll learn how to write! - Come on, Dad!
Hermes: Fine. Hephaestus, you can fix their Internet connection.
Hephaestus: Fine.
Dionysus: Thanks! - Don't tell Mr. D. - He's still healing. - Don't tell him.
Hermes: *Sighs* You two really deserve it...but I won't tell him..
Dionysus: Thanks! - We'll go now - Like, back to our regular computers.
Athena: So, we do have other demigod writers.
Hermes: Yep. They're up to no good, too.
Athena: You take pride in that?
Hermes: Yes. I mean, I'm the god of thieves and mischief and stuff. Of course I do.
Athena: Yeah, I guess you have a reason...sort of.
Travis Stoll: However much I prefer hacking Dionysus's account, it's nice to be back on my own.
Leo: Um, I hacked onto it for you, remember?
Travis Stoll: Yeah. Sorry.
Leo: So...credit, please?
Connor Stoll: Thank you, Leo, for assisting us.
Leo: Mm-hmm. That's better.
Travis Stoll: Hey, Leo, you gonna write?
Leo: Huh? Oh, maybe...I dunno.
Connor Stoll: Maybe we'll write about you!
Leo: Then I'll cut your Internet.
Connor Stoll: You can do that?
Leo: I'm a son of Hephaestus. Of course I can.
Connor Stoll: Fine. We won't write about you.
Leo: Good.
Athena: Good articles, please. And no chat speak.
Travis Stoll: Oh, of course. We wouldn't dare trash up your newspaper with bad writing.
Athena: Good.
Hephaestus: Sorry to interrupt, but I have stuff to do. I can't let this thing go unsupervised...so I have to shut it down. Sorry. I think everyone's got the point of the article, Athena, so it's all right.
Athena: Okay.
Hephaestus: Bye, guys.
A/N - So, have a good weekend.
