Cabin Ambiance

''The entrance to the Hephaestus cabin takes the shape of a vault door. It was circular and made of very thick metal. The cabin requires a complex code, along with advanced mechanical knowledge only Hephaestus children would know about. The door opens with many gears turning and smoke hissing loudly. The inside of the cabin looks like a forge. It has shiny metal walls and metal slatted doors. The cabin is often noted for being very unclean and filled with junk. In a certain area of the cabin, there would be an entrance to a tunnel underneath the cabin. The bunkbeds in the cabin would be capable of folding into the wall, revealing a digital control panel, blinking LED lights, glowing gems, and many interlocking gears. However, some beds built-in game stations at the footboard, a stereo system in the headboard, a glass door refrigerator at the base, and a whole bunch of control panels running down the sides. The beds retract to a private room in the basement. Though the cabin doesn't appear to have a second floor from the outside, a fire pole could be seen coming down from the second floor, down to the first. A circular staircase leads down to the basement, which is filled with power tools, an assortment of weapons, a workbench, a forge and a copious amount of scrap metal.''

Brock — "Alright, this is door to the cabin." Brock said as he pats the vault door. "Only and only Children of Hephaestus know the code to the door. Which means don't tell anyone or we will have to change the locks which is a real pain in the ass to do." He explains as he shows him the code to the vault door. "Welcome to the Cabin or as we like to call it "The Forge" by most of us." Brock said as he starts to show Cain around the Cabin mostly the first floor. "Here are the bunkbeds which is where we sleep. I recommend getting the bottom ones." He said as he shows him how the bunkbeds fold into the wall along with other things. "Alright, so any question about the first floor of the Forge?" Brock ask as he looked at the young boy of Hephaestus.

Cain — Cain whistled lowly as he entered the the cabin, and his expression of annoyance turned into one of awe and amazement. "Whoa...." he said. "All of this stuff is ours?" His mind was abuzz as he was hit with a wave of information and thought  not of his own, and he had to shake his head a bit to focus, although he was finding it incredibly hard to do so.

Cain — Noticing that Brock was looking at him, he quickly coughed and schooled his features into his usual expression. "Huh, I thought it'd be bigger."

Brock — "Alright then let's head to the Second Floor." Brock said as he goes over to fire pole and gets ready to slide down. "Hope you don't mind fire poles." He said with a smirk as he started to slide down the pole. Once they get to the second floor which is the main working place for all children of Hephaestus. "This is the second floor where we all work and make things." Brock said as he shows him around then stops at work bench. He then grabs a chair and gets Cain to set then gives the boy some tools and parts to work with for crafting something. "You do you, kid. I'll go back to making weapons for the camp, tell me when you made something." He said as he goes to the forge to continue his work as a blacksmith.

Cain — Cain huffed as he was given some tools then left to his own devices. He crossed his arms and turned away, resolute in not working on anything at all, which lasted all but 30 seconds before his ADHD screamed at him to touch a of the stuff. He absentmindedly played with a few gears and springs, his fingers so deft that before he knew it he was crafting something.

Cain — After a while, he snapped out of his zealous trance, wiping a bit of drool from his mouth as he furrowed his eyebrows. "Man, I hate when that happens." He looked at his palm to see what he created. It was simply a makeshift wind up metal spider. He gave the crank a few turns, and it shuddered to life. It crawled several feet away from him and partway up the wall before stopping.

Brock — "You did a good job, kid." Brock said as he came by to check on the kids work. He saw the Wind-Up Spider come back to life. "Here is a soda for good work you did." He said as he pats him on the back and hands a nice cold soda.

Cain — Cain scowled again, but accepted the soda. He looked at it for a moment before cracking it open and taking a swig. "Don't patronize me." He protested, though it was noticeably lacking in heat, and he refused to look at him.

Brock — "I ain't patronizing you, kid. You did a good job." Brock said as he looks at Cain. "Anyways, I am going to fix a few things around the camp. You can stay if you want to work." He said as he grabs his toolbox and starts to head out of the Cabin. Brock left to let the boy continue if he wanted to make more things.

Roe — Roe walked into the cabin to see it discarded with no one around. The beds were empty and the dressers were as well. He walked towards one of the beds with his things and began unpacking. “Must be a dying breed.” He thought to himself jokingly. He got organized and took a bed closest to the door in a small nook by a window. “Just like home.” He thought to himself. He laid down for a long rest

Roe — Roe awoke a few hours later feeling tired and disoriented. He decided to explore the camp and possibly meet some new people.

Roe — Roe entered the cabin to find it relatively empty. A few Hephaestus children were mingling but he ran past them. He normally always stopped to chit chat but he couldn’t right now. He had to get ready. He proceeded to unpack his pool equipment and lay out an outfit for his journey before promptly entering the shower with his socks still on.

Roe — Roe came home and immediately went to his bed to sleep. His mind was racing. He kept thinking until he dwindled off to a long rest.

NPC — A Hephaestus girl woke up in the middle of the night, she would quietly slip her airpods into her sisters as they slept, one by one they would listen to Prime C's song.

Joseph — Ah yes, the cabin where Hephaestus kids live, true masters of making stuff.. especially weapons. Val would step right in front of the door, with few knocks he sighed in relief, he hoped that..no girl opens the door. because if there was anything to happen it was that he would ask for one of her male siblings since he believed that "Girls suck at tasks that can be done by boys". Val was looking for someone to make him a longsword, something to use in case he was on a mission with Greekoids instead of true Roman soldiers.

Leroy — Leroy would come to the door and open it, he would be wearing a pair of brown cargo shorts, however he wouldn't have a shirt on, simply a small damp towel around his shoulders, in his hand would be a dagger that still smoked a bit. "Hello there looking for someone or something, because we seem to have a lot more somethings around here." Leroy would grin as he fixed his ponytail which was a bit looser than normal but also seemed to be singed.

Joseph — The 6'2 Roman would tower the Hephaestus kid as he looked down...all basking in GLORIOUS ROMAN MASCULINITY. he smiled as if he was about to jump from the fact that he didn't have to speak to any of those blacksmith wannabes... uhm female Hephaestus children. "Good day to you...I was wondering if I could actually ask for a weapon made specifically for me".

Leroy — Leroy would look up at the newcomer with a grin. Well if this guy fits the stereotype that he looks probably not to much brain there, I suppose we will find out. "Well you came to the right place then! come on in we can discuss some designs!" Leroy's voice would sound very energetic, he would step to the side and allow Joseph to enter. "My name is Leroy, I am a bit new but I am pretty talented even for a Heph kid so you wont be disappointed."

Joseph — "Name's Joseph ..Joseph Valentine, you can call me Val or Joe. I'm from the Roman cabin..".

He said getting in and taking the first steps into the Hephaestus cabin. He took one good look around, checking if some excited females decided to join the talk or something... but no, place was safe from those. "Which I guess you already know? Anyhow ..i have the picture of what I am looking for here. It should be... achievable, since people around are talking about how great your cabin is when it comes to making weapons". Joseph would bring out a picture of the weapon, it showed what was a medieval longsword... used by Germanic knights.

Leroy — Leroy would walk over to a metal table that was set up in the cabin, he would pull out a chair and sit down in it heavily throwing the dagger on the table, he would notice Joseph looking around and would tilt his head. "First time here or looking for a specific person?" Leroy would then look at the picture with a grin. "That seems simple enough, and trust me, we are the best in making things to kill things." Leroy would pick up the knife that he had forged and stabbed it into the metal table, the dagger would stick there, when Leroy pulled it out there wouldn't be a single chip on it.

Joseph — "A great showcase of what you're offering. You definitely will do me a great favor making that weapon. Remember that it should be exactly how it is in the picture". Joseph applaud the work of Leroy on that knife, it would definitely work in his favor to have this association solidified. He needed a secondary weapon after all, a one that didn't require Roman formations to work 100% effectively.

Leroy — Leroy would nod. "This is just something I whipped up, I'll definitely try harder on your blade." Leroy would grin. Hah a great favor, who does he think I am, this is easy. . . "Now since I already have the materials for the blade, the design is pretty simple, only a accouple folds, compensation should only be minor." Leroy would tap the hilt of the dagger on the side of his head. "How about for compensation, next time I need help with something I call on you." Leroy would smile. "That's all I ask a favor for a favor, besides it will only take me  a day to make it!"

Joseph — "That does sound fair... well thank you for picking up the making of my future sword. And in return, if you need a favor one day... you'll find me around". He nodded standing up then opening his hand for Leroy to shake... you know, seal the deal and shit.
