4th Floor Common Room - Monday Afternoon

For once Rose didn't feel like being outside - something about the humidity or the thunderstorms or whatever. She didn't feel like being in her room which still felt too empty without Morgana there either so she found herself down in the common room with the music turned up loudly.

Even better, in the refrigerator, there was a tube of chocolate chip dough. Rose eyed it warily. Should it be eaten with a spoon or should she try to make cookies? The oven was on and a cookie sheet was out, but the possibility of ruined cookies was high once they actually went in the oven. Difficult choices for a Monday afternoon.

"Stakes?" he asked. "What, you fight vampires or something?"

He met a witch yesterday, no reason for vampires to not exist as well.

"Yep, one kind of 'em," she said, totally blase. "What about you? What are just 'monsters'?"

"You know anything about Greek mythology? Because I fight pretty much everything in there." Luke tilted his head to the side to show the scar running down his face. "For example: Dragon."

Rose took a look at that scar, her eyebrows raising. "Dragon," she repeated. "Really. Like that one that little one-legged kid has?"

Luke could only assume that she was talking about the dragon he saw during the picnic. "Sort of like that, yeah. Only this one is less people-friendly. Guards a bunch of golden apples. Doesn't take kindly to you trying to steal them."

"Did you get one of the golden apples?" she asked.

"I didn't," Luke said, feeling a little anger flare up at that. He didn't blame himself for that, of course. He blamed his father. "You kill many vampires?"

Subject change ahoy.

Rose reached up to rub the back of her neck where her tattoos were thoughtfully as she watched him, wondering what the situation there was. "Not as many as I'm going to when I get out of here."

"You going to make a full time job of it?" he asked. Luke was always curious over that type of thing, since most demigods didn't have a choice in the matter when it came to fighting.

Rose shrugged. "It's my duty. My people train to protect a type of good vampire and kill the evil ones. Even if I wanted to, I couldn't get out of it." Well, without becoming a bloodwhore. "I'm taking my trials in about six weeks and then I'll be ready to be assign as a guardian."

Luke nodded, sympathizing with that. "I don't have much of a choice when it comes to fighting either. I'm sort of a monster magnet because of my bloodline. It's either fight or go into hiding."

"You sound like my best friend, Lissa," Rose said, giving him a little smile. "She's getting me as a guardian though. She won't ever fight."

[identity profile] trickydemigod.livejournal.com 2010-07-13 02:53 am (UTC)(link)
Luke smiled a little, strongly reminded of how he protected Annabeth. "She's lucky to have you. It's frustrating, being hunted because of what family you were born into."

[identity profile] guardianborn.livejournal.com 2010-07-13 03:14 am (UTC)(link)
"I'm lucky to have her," Rose corrected. Since she wouldn't actually be alive if Lissa hadn't healed her after she died. "It's a mutual thing. So what's up with your family?"

"I'm a demigod. My dad's a god, my mom's a human," Luke explained. "Monsters hate the gods but can't go after them themselves, so they attack their kids instead."

[identity profile] guardianborn.livejournal.com 2010-07-13 03:33 am (UTC)(link)
Rose snorted. "Of course they do. Assholes. Why wouldn't they go after the weaker people - err, no offense. Just in general."

"None taken," Luke said, smirking. "It's a crappy situation, but we make the best of it. Like I'm sure you make the best of yours."

Personally Luke wanted to tear the situation apart completely, but hadn't figured out a way to do it yet.

"Or we kick the shit out of it when they're not looking," she smirked back.
