“It made me very confused at the beginning, but you’ll get used to it.” Mia said as she would smile at the board the girl was looking at. “I think so… One big freak family, perhaps.” She chuckled turning to face the girl. “Technically yes…? But try not to see things this way or you might lose it as time pass by.” The blonde did a little pause thinking about the whole family. “Also it would make me your aunt and I can’t deal with that right now.”

“I think this activity is stupid once you realize that we’re practically throwing science out the window. Like, Gregor Mendel doesn’t even exist anymore.” Chestnut hues took a brief moment to glance about her poster, and finally landed on the older blonde in front of her. “Well, that’s alright! I’ll take a freak family over no family, you know? I mean, this whole time I thought it was me and my mom, but to know I am somewhat related to all these other people…! Makes the whole world feel a little more safer, you know?” Her nose scrunches at Mia’s comment. “Now that I think about it, I don’t know if I’d be able to deal with the fact that you’re my aunt, too.”

“ oh, they’re having you do that, too? honestly, you could half-ass it and that athena camper would probably check it off. just make it look done. which i think you’re doing a pretty job with—the glitter is a nice touch. ” she nodded, holding out the bag of dark chocolate covered pretzels in a show of silent solidarity. or something like that. “ want one? anyway, the greek pantheon and everything involved are way too complicated for most of us to keep track of, and the whole ‘we’re all family’ thing doesn’t really apply here. apparently gods have different dna than mortals do, so none of us are actually related except to our siblings. so romance drama? totally okay! except maybe not involving the big three kids. someone told me that’s the closest you get to kissing your cousins. like, i mean, they can’t get with each other. ”

“Yeah you’re not wrong,” She replies as she looks at the other and smiles slightly, “I think when they want your family tree they want your nuclear family like your brothers or sisters back home and like your parents-I don’t know, I can’t really relate.” The nymph had never really struggled with this concept, she remembered when he did though not that she was much help in the grand scheme of things on that one either. “I’d say the Apollo cabin being aunts and uncles to you is a stretch but maybe don’t date them.”
