Woah- it's just me, Jor. Sorry to startle you.

H-he’s… a friend…Kind of.. He had a crush on Tiff. Got mad at me for leaving when Tiff died for me. [sighs and takes another drink, finishing it.]

Wow; you huntresses seem to be kind of irresistible. And yeah, I guess I see where he's coming from... Do you want some more of that? [gestures towards the drink] 

Yeah… but Blink got mad at me for it. Mentioning Tiff and such… [takes another sip]

Uhm... who? I mean this Blink person; of course I'd remember Tiff. [puts a comforting hand on her shoulder]

Well, she wad the one who asked if I wanted to leave….

Right... [finishes his current bottle, gets another one] Well. Uhm. I hope you don't regret your decision.

A few days ago, we passed the Sea of Monsters and the other huntresses didn’t hear the Sirens singing…but I wanted to.. and I saw what I wanted and Lady Artemis asked if I wanted to leave the Hunt. I thought about it and I decided that I’d rather have the choice to leave than be forced to leave. [takes a drink] That’s basically it.

... Wow. Okay. And she just... accepted it?

[nods] Yes, I left. [takes a drink] It’s..a long story…

Well, we've got time and we've got booze. Spill.

… You what???

[takes a drink] Left the Hunt. As in not a huntress anymore.

... You left the hunt. You left it. 

Apollo. Believe it or not, he visited me when I was in the Hunt and told me that you were alive. The conversation didn’t end too well. [walks over and sits on the couch, taking the bottle from him] Thanks. [takes a sip and grimaces as the alcohol goes down her throat]…

Uhh…Blink got mad at me. For leaving the Hunt. [takes a drink]

... You what???

Unless you're prepared to come get drunk with me,

Apollo. Believe it or not, he visited me when I was in the Hunt and told me that you were alive. The conversation didn’t end too well. [walks over and sits on the couch, taking the bottle from him] Thanks. [takes a sip and grimaces as the alcohol goes down her throat] Gods, that’s strong. [but she takes another sip] How did it happen?

Unless you're prepared to come get drunk with me,

O-oh. Rina. [shoots up, swinging his feet over the side of the couch but hesitates, unsure of what to do] Who was right now...? And yeah, it is. I'm almost done with this one, but I have more. Here. [hands her a bottle of vodka] 

[Zach chokes out a cough and nods, taking his share. He wipes his nose with his arm and looks away.] Im sorry. I-I-I . . . Callum, thank you for making him happy.

[Zach starts sobbing while listening to the letter. He stands up and hugs Callum.] Im so sorry. Callum, im sorry.

[freezes for a few seconds, still in shock, before he finds it in him to return the hug, though not whole-heartedly. Wordlessly, he nods repeatedly before he steps back, not quite meeting Zach's eyes] I'm going to keep my part of the letter. Hold on- I'll rip it... [folds the letter where he needs to, right above where Xander wrote his full name, and, with trembling hands, manages to fold it as crisply as he could and rips it down the folded line against the wall, splitting it neatly] Here. [hands his half to him]

Finally back.

[Nods and rubs his neck.] There’s a part for you, towards the end.

Finally back.

[Nods and motions for Callum to follow. They enter cabin 11 and zach pulls out the letter from under his bed.] Here …

[Follows, barely keeping it together. Impatient, he snatches it out of Zach's hand and reads it over and over.] He... he left this for you?
