Tumblr Academy reimagined

((Oh my gosh, Leo's birthday is in two days! and Annabeth's is in a week!))

I nodded as I watched him walk away. I then went to work. I dug a hole-not very deep, but a good size- and placed medium rocks around it. They would help block off even more wind, and well as keep the fire where it needed to be. After that was done I found some dry grass that would be a good starter and put a relatively small pile in the middle of the pit. Once that was done I grabbed my flint and steel, and waited for his to come back with the wood.
((Cool!))

I gather twigs and cut of branches from trees. Not too thick, but scrawnier branches. Soon, I had an arm-full and started walking back, whistling "Pompeii" by Bastille while I did so.

I switched personalities, my eyes going chocolate brown like Leo's I held my hand out and made my palm light on fire.

"You'll never let me show off my skills, will you?" I asked her.

I walked into the clearing and my whistling ended. "Darn, now what am I supposed to do with all of these?"

"Have her light those on fire and have an actual campfire?" I suggested, looking at him like he was stupid. "I don't think she'd want to be the campfire for us."

I put my hand out, "You guys can light it."

I put the wood down in the pit.

"Or I'll do it. Okay," I mumbled. I moved the wood out of the pit, sending a small glare at Alasitar for putting it there. "Someone doesn't know how to light a fire, do they?" I asked him sarcastically.
Once I'd moved all the wood off to the side of the pit I hit my steel on the flint, getting several sparks to land on the dried grass. For a second it looked like it hadn't ignited, but I blew on it gently and the sparks grew into fire. I slowly, and carefully, placed several branched on the growing fire. Once it was a steady flame I added in more, letting it grow larger. I left plenty of wood by the pit in a pile.

I watched. "No, I don't know how to light a fire, obviously. I've never had to light a fire."

"How have you never had to light a fire?" I asked in shock.

"Someone else did it for me, I've had warm clothing. It's a long story."

"Magic."

I glared at Olivia. "Stop that." I turned back to Alasitar. "I didn't really grow up in a situation where others would do things for me, so I wouldn't know what that'd be like."

"I know. In all fairness, not even my king, Leopole ((Snow White's father who has the impossible to spell name)) knew how to light a fire."

"Almost everyone where I come from knows how to light fires. It's a basic skill for us."
((I'll be gone for a while, gotta get things reread for dinner, then eat. I might come back occasionally in the next ten minutes))

I nodded a bit. "Cool."

((Alright, bye!))

I listened in on their conversation. I got up and climbed the tree closest to the fire so I could feel the warm smoke. I chuckled at Alasitar, "And you said in your world you were a baker, shouldn't you have at least known? Ever heard of a Brick-oven?" I said sitting on the branch leaning up against a tree.

I sneered at him. "I don't do brick ovens in the modern world, this isn't a pizzeria."

"Well the modern world must be full of dumb people then. Not knowing how to make a fire, ooh and I bet they don't know how to purify water in the wild! Haha! Without using that strange water bottle thing... Oh, darn I can't remember, what is it called?" I teased. I rolled on the tree branch Cheshire cat style and just smirked.

"A water filter? People do know how to do that, stupid."

"Boil it for at least 5 minutes," I muttered under my breath.

"I know that!"

I switched back to Poseidon and sprayed everyone with a bit of water.
