[jason once again appears on the locket network, this time appearing to actually be in one of the provided bedrooms of caer glaem. woah. he tugs idly at the collar of his shirt, new outfit helpfully provided by the fairies in place of his original t-shirt and jeans (those unfortunately all torn and dirty after the camping trip/worm hunt). it's a lot more fantasy than anything he's used to, but he's way too nice to complain about the clothes he was given for free.]

Hey. Just wanted to check in, I guess, before we head out again tomorrow. More exploring and all that.

[the hope, of course, is that they find something useful to the people stuck here, a way of getting home or something. getting a feel for the area and learning what kind of threats inhabited it was helpful too, though.]

It might be a bit useless right now, but I sort of made plans to eventually help someone learn to fight -- whenever we get back again, at least -- so I figured I might as well open the offer up to anyone else who's interested in it. I've got a lot of experience training people, and I'm used to teaching kids, so literally anyone is welcome. [a beat, where a hesitant look briefly crosses his face before he covers it back up with that cool, unshakeable praetor look.] Clarisse, if you wanna help out with that whenever it happens, I'd appreciate it.

[consider that a peace offering. or at least, an apology for accidentally arming your nemesis with a lethal weapon. he can think of no better way to appease clarisse than to give her the opportunity to show off her admittedly very impressive fighting skills.

that appears to be all he has to say for now, but he seems to fiddle with the locket for a moment before it cuts out for most people, working out how to send a message privately.]

-private to luke-

can we talk

...

Should I feel insulted that you offered to train me and you're used to training kids? Are you going to teach me on my knees? With balloon animals?

[Screw the locket, he's doing his sneaky son of Hades trick. So he'll be in a shadowy corner of Jason's room.]

You know, I can actually tell you a day or two before we're going back to Caer Glaem.

[ peace offering schmeace offering. she's still seething over the whole luke fiasco to really care about jason's end of it. he didn't know, she gets that, and she's over it. it's everything luke said to her in the aftermath of her conversation with jason that's still eating at her. getting to show off her skills will do more than just appease her, it'll get her mind of all this luke shit. ]

Count me in. I could probably even teach you a thing or two.

[ luke sees jason's broadcast, and the moment it mentions clarisse, he chooses to not respond. if he wants to, after mulling it over, he'll call jason privately about maybe seeing what else is up the roman god's sleeve beside lightning. but, right now, wherever clarisse is, he doesn't want to be. ]

[ to have a private text sent his way is beyond surprising. he knows clarisse had slapped jason's head clear off his neck after he'd been gifted his shoes and his sword; he'd thought jason would've decided that luke wasn't the sort of guy he wished to be around. who would? after the shit he'd done, luke still doesn't understand why nico and jason had invited him along for a camping trip. ]

Man, I sure am popular these days.

[ he shouldn't type it, but luke's a little bit of a pusher. if jason can't see that he should be ignoring luke and casting him out, then maybe luke has to do the showing for him. after nico's invitation — and now jason's to talk — he's wondering if he pegged these guys all wrong. ]

[ but then he casts that thought aside. it makes things all the more complicated if he has. he thinks to answer via video or voice, but then chooses to stick with text; it's easier to mask himself if he has words to shape his manipulated meanings. ]

I'm all ears. Figuratively.

What will you be exploring?

[ she remembers his voice from during the incident with the worms, and so addresses him with just a touch of warmth. otherwise, she remains distant -- but curious. ]
