Pool | Afternoon | Sunday | February 13

[seaweed-demigod.livejournal.com]

After meeting Leander earlier in the day, Percy wasn't about to stick around his room and wait for more kids to find him. He'd herded Leander (and dragged Jason along with them since he was the other dad) down to the pool since any kid of his probably liked the water.

Once down there, he'd taken the time to call Luke and both invited him and told him to find Nico since it wasn't like Percy could snap a note up to Ethan's mother. Sure, neither Luke or Nico were big fans of the water but wasn't a pool supposed to be a good way to entertain kids so their parents could spend time beating their heads into the walls or something?"

Percy wasn't sure but being around the water relaxed him enough that he either thought he could deal with the horde of demigod kids or he could make Jason or Nico or Luke deal with it because he had the water as backup. One or the other.

[Percy's here for the two demigods, a Robin, and aaaaaaaaall their kids but the pool's open!]

Nico thought he was doing pretty well not flipping out because he was someone's mother. Though it did make him feel justified in his distaste for that weekend he'd been a girl.

"Don't even think about it," he warned his cousins as Ethan shot toward the water screaming for his 'mommy' to watch this. The splash was pretty impressive, and Nico suspected it was a little power-enhanced. Such a freaking scary kid.

It was probably wrong of Nico to prefer clingy JJ, but he didn't care.

"Were you watching, Mommy?" Luke teased after he had gotten the two kids off his shoulders. Luckily both of them had no issues with going into the pool without Luke getting in there with them. He so didn't feel like swimming with a bunch of overpowered Percy brats.

"Shut up, Daddy," Nico told him, frowning because it was obvious Luke's fault he was a mom. "And yes, mostly 'cause I think that kid's powers could take us all out and I don't think accidentally murdering all these other children would be a great way to spend the afternoon."

"It's a good thing he seems to be a reasonably cheerful kid," Luke said. Gods knew where that came from. "You know, so long as you don't keep him from his video games."

Alex walked up to Nico, still dripping wet from the pool and looking like he had been personally insulted by him. "Why didn't you tell me you were a girl?"

[deaths-demigod.livejournal.com]

Nico glanced down at the angry-looking damp child and blinked. "Because I'm not a girl. Who told you that?" Because they were going to die.

[shootsandsteals.livejournal.com]

Alex turned and pointed at Percy. "That guy. He said you were a girl that everyone called mommy and that you were shy about being a girl because you were so ugly."

Now he turned back to Nico, still looking insulted. "Why didn't you tell me? I would have still liked you even if you are an ugly girl."

As soon as he had found out there was another kid with his genes wandering around, Luke had offered to take Alex off of Katniss's hands (Luke thought she looked relieved to be rid of the little klepto for a while) and managed to get both him and Anna down to the pool with minimal fighting. Of course this was only achieved by letting each kid sit on one of his shoulders so they could be the tallest people in allllll the land.

Luke himself was probably gonna need a massage or something later because this was killing him.

"Who're you?" Leander asked when Luke got close enough to him. "I don't recognize you."

[trickydemigod.livejournal.com]

"I'm Luke," he said, rolling his shoulders a bit after letting Anna and Alex go off on their own. "I...recognize you. Are you Percy's or Jason's?"

[wee-demigods.livejournal.com]

"Both," Leander said, shrugging. "Can't you see the resemblance, Luke?"

[wee-demigods.livejournal.com]

JJ knew better than to get into the pool, thanks to Nico, so she was laying down at the edge, swishing her hands through the water instead. "Hi!" she said, waving to Luke when she saw him, letting the water fly. "Are you a friend of my daddies?"

[trickydemigod.livejournal.com]

"Sure do," Luke said, crouching down so he could even the height difference a little. Nico had not been lying about this kid's creeper eyes. "You're JJ, right?"

[seaweed-demigod.livejournal.com]

Of course, Percy was in the pool. Leander was sitting on the edge of the pool, feet dangling in the water and looking like he was just too cool for this.

Percy left him alone for the most part because he did not need to be reminded of having sex with Jason. Instead, he just swam around and kept an eye on his various kids and other --

God, how had three demigods and one human created so many kids?

[wee-demigods.livejournal.com]

Eyepatch firmly pressed to his forehead like he was Uncle Tyson, Ethan paddled over on a self-created wave to bother his dad and that other stupid-looking kid. "What's wrong with him?"

[seaweed-demigod.livejournal.com]

"His other dad's a bit of a doofus," Percy said, splashing some water towards Ethan since he knew the kid could stop it and probably turn it into gold what with how powered up he was.

"Been hanging out with your mom?" he asked just because he wanted to use tha term again.

[shootsandsteals.livejournal.com]

Since Luke wasn't gonna get in the water and Alex didn't feel like spending any more time with Anna and those other kids were giving off some seriously creepy vibes, Alex found him swimming over towards Percy.

"You look like that other guy." He felt it needed to be said. It's not like he knew too many twins since District 12 didn't exactly have a high population anymore.

[seaweed-demigod.livejournal.com]

"We're not related," Percy said, giving this unfamiliar kid a look. At least that meant he wasn't Percy's. "Unfortunately, he decided to steal my face and won't give it back."

That was nice to tell the kid, right?

[deaths-demigod.livejournal.com]

Nico crouched at the side of the pool, trying to wave Percy over. "Hey, Perce. Come on out for a minute, I think there's something you need to hear about!"

Would his ploy work? Well, this was Percy he was trying to trick. And he'd been tricked into becoming a hamster for a while there.

[seaweed-demigod.livejournal.com]

"Something I need to hear about?" Percy asked, wading a little closer but not all the way. "You can't tell me from there?"

[dontvotemeout]

Jason wasn't a big fan of the pool, but he also wasn't a fan of being trapped in a room with Percy and Leander. At least here, he could dip his feet in the water, and keep an eye on both of his kids from a safe distance.

Oh god, how he hoped Bruce would never find out about this.

[wee-demigods.livejournal.com]

"You look like my daddy!" Anna squealed, swimming over to Jason. "But you're not, you know."

[dontvotemeout]

And that was a good thing, because Jason already had enough kids, thank you. "No, I am definitely not Percy," he said. "What's your name?"

[deaths-demigod.livejournal.com]

"Hey." Nico took a seat beside Jason, crossing his legs to stay as far from the water as he could manage. Not that he could really escape Percy's water powers in this room, but it wasn't like he needed to help it along after punching the guy.

[dontvotemeout]

"Hey," Jason said, grinning at Nico. "Do you have any idea how hot you are to me right now?"
