[Hearing that was not something that he expected at all. He blinked a few times as he turned to face Hazel, unable to mask the surprise on his face. But when he thought about it, that was exactly what he wanted, wasn't it? To do something that made him forget about his responsibilities for a little while?

It isn't long until his surprise melts away, and is replaced by a small smile tugging at the edge of his lips.]

I'd like that, too. [A pause.] Are we talking on Arion or something else? [Meaning will I need to change into an animal for this?]

[keeperfromtheflame]

[It was a side of herself that Hazel hadn't had the opportunity to bring out in such a long time. Rebellion. ...albeit, a quiet one. Less as a way of opposing authority figures or causing trouble as it had always been about reasserting herself as a person.]

[She'd done it in her old life. With Sammy. Little things, like sneaking away and...well...sneaking her first kiss. Their only kiss. Even when she'd come to Camp Jupiter, those traces of her past personality found ways of slipping through. Picking up a calvary sword simply because she was told it was a horrible idea. They wouldn't give her a horse. She wasn't high enough in ranking to have one. And the more they told her that, the more determined she was to wield that sword anyway.]

[Even her relationship with Frank...she'd put off acknowledging anything for so long simply because everyone had told her they would make a cute couple....]

[Okay, so maybe they were right. That time.]

[And now? She was rebelling again. In a way that nobody would get hurt. Sure, she would lose sleep that night, and suffer in the morning. But she hadn't had the opportunity to ride Arion outside the battlefield. To enjoy the wind blowing through her hair as she traveled as fast as his legs could carry her. And who better to ride alongside with than the Praetor of the Camp? He would get them both out of trouble if they were caught. Probably.]

[...nope, still worth the risk.]

Arion, of course. Unless you had another idea?

[The thought of riding Frank hadn't once occurred to her--which was probably fortunate for them both, because even if the meaning was actually uniquely innocent when it came to them, the notion of riding her boyfriend....]

[...yeah...]

[sonofastick]

[The other possible connotations never occurred to him when he had asked the question. In the past Frank might've been a little self-conscious about his ability, but after the adversities they'd faced, it had become practically second nature to him. The option was there and he merely wanted to present it.]

I could probably take us somewhere if you wanted me to. [A beat passes as he gathered his thoughts. He averts his eyes to the ground for a moment, suddenly embarrassed all over again.] I mean, uh... at least that way it would just be two of us.

[keeperfromtheflame]

[For a pair of battle-worn, seasoned Roman warriors...they could be surprisingly innocent.]

We could do that too. [Her head dipped low, to try and hide her own sudden blush. She had just assumed...but, then, Frank was offering and there was no way she could turn him down.] Did you have some place in mind?

[sonofastick]

[Indeed. If it's any consolation, at least holo-Coach Hedge monitoring them as much during their time on the Argo II.]

I haven't really thought about it. [He ponders for a moment, his brows knitting together as he tries to narrow down their options.

Someplace in New Rome maybe? While it was probably best to stay close to camp, he couldn't help but feel they had a larger chance of getting caught sneaking about. And that was something he wanted to avoid right now... But if it was something Hazel wanted, then he'd be open to that too.

Eventually he shrugs but still looks embarrassed that he wasn't able to come up with anything.] Honestly? Anywhere but here sounds good right now.

[keeperfromtheflame]

[Getting screamed at to put on clothes she was already wearing? Just for daring to hold his hand?]

[Somehow, not a consolation.]

In that case...let's go anywhere but here.

[She would literally follow him wherever he took her. No questions asked. Until she thought of one.]

sorry for the staggered replies! been pretty busy-- and still trying to get his voice down |D

[sonofastick]

[Even if he said that, he really didn't know know where it was that they could head. It takes him a few moments of staring at his feet before he comes up with an idea.]

Have you ever gone outside of the camp? You know, around San Francisco?

[Prior to their adventure with Percy and the others, Frank would've never entertained the thought of exploring the bay area. But they'd defeated Gaea only a few days ago, and they hadn't encountered too may monsters on the cross country trip back. The chances of them getting attacked were probably low... right?]

Maybe we could give that a shot.

take all the time you need! That's what practice is for, after all.

[keeperfromtheflame]

[She shook her head. No, she hadn't traveled anywhere. Ever, really, if they excluded the time traveling around the world on the Argo II. Before...she had spent the first decade of her life in the French Quarters. Never once leaving Southern Louisiana. Not until her mother had dragged them all the way to Alaska...which was the last place she would travel. Then.]

[Seventy years later, and Nico found her. Brought her back. And straight to training. Very little exposure to the outside world she would have felt so out of place in at the time. Not without an adjustment period.]

[She was pretty sure she'd adjusted by now.]

I hope you don't mean a literal shot.

Otherwise I'm almost tempted to say 'no'.
