always wanna die (sometimes);

"Bitch, you would be surprised. All that mystery and you being with Lucien who is practically even more mysterious than you are causes people to gossip about you.” Robbie sometimes still heard about Lucien and Teren together and he had the urge to fuck with those campers just because it would be fun. "I don’t want a scandal with Miel unless it’s a sex scandal.” The son of Erebus teased, a small smirk on his face. “Probably just snacks. Oreos. All the kinds of Oreos. Double-stuffed, golden Oreos, red velvet even.” He added.

“Oh please, you could literally show your face outside and glare at someone and it would cause more controversy than me actually trying to stir shit up.”  Robbie didn’t have ideas and he wanted to stay in the sidelines rather than have people actually look at him on purpose. None of that. He was happy with his dogs, cat, and Miel. “Awww, you’re leaving soon? You aren’t enjoying my company?”

“Don’t ‘for real’ me, nothing has been happening since this pandemic started. Less campers around, yes, but that’s just about it.” Robbie was probably just avoiding everyone in camp and there wasn’t a big incident that he couldn’t avoid. The biggest change was that he had Draco and that was it. “If he pulled me under, I would’ve le-- you know what, I’m going to keep my mouth shut because telling me off won’t change anything. I’m not dead and you’re stuck with me and the dogs and Draco longer!” He said with a small smirk on his face.

“Yeah, well, of course. I give him updates from time to time... Mostly about the pugs and Draco though because nothing interesting ever happens around here.” Although he has told Lucien about Miel before in one of their rare phone calls. Robbie tended to keep to himself now, only because it was hard enough to bother people when everything was going to shit around them. “No, I don’t need anything.” The son of Erebus countered. “Hey, someone who is at camp who looked that beautiful while in the water can step on me anytime. Why are you curious? I swam with him.”

“No, I don’t talk to him that much, what do you expect, we text each other like best friends everyday?” Robbie gave updates to the son of Nyx but it wasn’t as often as before, just because he really had nothing to do in Camp. Now he was just checking in from time to time, telling the other that he was alive and well. And that his pet companions were happy to. “You’re such a big softie.” He pointed out with a laugh. “I was jogging at the beach and then I saw him! Asked me to swim with him so I did.”

“To be fair, the only way someone can grab your attention is to be annoying. Tell me all about Lucien, I’m bored and no drama is happening.” Robbie pointed out because that’s exactly how he and Teren became friends. It was the same for Theios except they didn’t get along. And it was the same for Lucien too before the two of them got together. “Miel? He is definitely not annoying. He also doesn’t stink, you’re probably just catching on the fact that he’s a merman.”

“Aww, that’s okay, you can pretend to deny it further but we know the truth.” Robbie let the dog down and they scampered away, Draco following them to his own scratch tower. It took a long time for Teren to get to where he was now when it came to his relationship with Lucien, but at least he got there. That doesn’t mean he wouldn’t make fun of his friend. “You talked about how annoying Lucien was at the start. At the very start, it was funny how dumb you were being.”

“Why the fuck would I be dreaming of you? That would be called a nightmare.” Robbie had a smirk on his face when he realized he was really annoying Teren this time. He reached for the food that Teren had brought with him, already looking forward to eating them. “You were being an idiot that was hurting Lucien. When everyone could practically tell that the two of you were in love with each other.”

“That’s okay, the dogs and I know that you love us.” Robbie pressed a kiss on the top of Corndog’s head and then let him down to join his siblings and Draco down on the floor. Probably to glare back at Teren or something. Who actually knows what happens in the minds of the pugs and one kitten. “Hey, I had to deal with your stupid ass when you were pining over Lucien and I didn’t complain.”

“Admit it, you love me and the dogs.” Robbie continued teasing Teren and then plopped himself down on one of his seats, Corndog still on his lap. Rolling his eyes, he ignored the quip about his short legs because he’s accepted the fact that he’s short. The way Teren reacted to his Miel thinking he was cute was funny. “I didn’t even tell you anything explicit. Do you want me to?” 

“And yet you still come back and visit.” Robbie countered as he pressed kisses on the top of Corndog’s head. He scowled at the other camper through and kicked tried to kick Teren’s shin. “You’re just jealous they’re cuter than you will ever be. I assure you though that I don’t care that you don’t call me cute because Miel thinks I am so that’s fine with me.”

“You knew the moment you knocked on the door that you wouldn’t be able to shut me up.” Robbie replied with a smirk as he saw Teren roll his eyes. It was practically his job to annoy the son of Hecate endlessly and he was probably doing it right now. “How very dare. You can’t tell Corndog he looks terrible! He did nothing to hurt your feelings. Plus, look at that cute face.” The smaller camper said before lifting Corndog in his arms.

“You are whiny and you are a baby. Please, don’t pretend as if Lucien doesn’t call you baby, which, gross.” Robbie made a face at the thought of Lucien and Teren being sweet with each other. But he was just happy that his friend was happy. Raising an eyebrow at the other camper, he rolled his eyes again when he pointedly looked at him. “What the fuck are you looking at me for?”

Robbie just shrugged because he was sure that Teren and Lucien had already had a talk about this, even if they didn’t really speak out loud. “Oh please, you think that’s enough to rename Draco? Besides, you’ll be a whiny baby after a few days because you miss your future husband and I’m not going to deal with that.” The smaller camper said with a smirk on his face. “You can barely even stand being around the pugs.”

"No but we all knew you already did. You don’t just talk about marriage like that easily if you haven’t at least talked to your partner about it.” Robbie was giving scratches to Draco the whole time, hugging the kitten close to his chest instead. “No. I’m not naming Draco again, Miel told me he liked it and he responds to Draco Meowfoy.” He let out a huff and then rolled his eyes at Teren. “You’re not here around enough to even hear his name.”

“Are you fucking serious right now? You’ve practically told him you’d marry him and then kiss him after. I don’t think he’ll mind that.” Robbie rolled his eyes at Teren and then hit him lightly on the shoulder. He was being an idiot and he would waste all his time telling his friend so. “Draco Malfoy is cute. Draco Meowfoy is also cute.”

“You’re not going to disappoint him, stop being dramatic. Trust me when I say that the last thing Lucien would be is disappointed.” Robbie could see how Lucien loved Teren when he visited sometimes with pie that he would bring. Teren was just psyching himself up for nothing. “You’re going to have to meet Draco Meowfoy’s dad at some point.”
