Moonlight (open)

"Off and on." Leon said leaning back and looking up at the stars. "They are very much like myself which is nice that we have a lot in common, however...it reminds me how much people go annoyed of me since sometimes I simply can't stand them in large doses."

Danny nodded, "I think it is the same with all of our siblings."

"You honestly think so? I don't feel so guilty then."

"I do get along with some of my siblings especailly my big brother." Danny said, "Do you have any other siblings that are normal?"

"Not that I know of." Leon replied. "It was always just me and my father. We are a bit like opposites. I am very outgoing and flamboyant and he is quite and reserved but we get along very well. I suppose that is the only downside to being here is I don't see him as much as I would like."

Danny nodded, "H-Have.... Have you ever meet your mother? Or did your father ever tell you about her?"

Leon nodded lightly. "I met her a few years ago when I turned Sixteen though I didn't know she was a goddess. I just knew she had impecable style. My father told me about her a little bit and she gas popped up again from time to time. Most of the time before that she left gifts with little notes attached for my birthday. From what I have been told recently, Aphrodite is the most involved with her children and fathers. I suppose that is to be expected from thw goddess of love."

Danny gave a sad smile, "Your lucky.... I wish i could just meet my mother one time."

"Who says you won't?"

Danny sighed, "I sm not important enough to meet.... I am not strong like my half siblings..."

Leon cocked his head to one side, curious at Danny's reply to his question. "And why do you think that? Strength is not everything you know. Would you rather be a brute or someone who thought things out?"

"The is other types of strength... Strength in wisdom and strength in courage.... But i do not seem to have any of that...." Danny said.

"Straighten is also knowing when you have faults and need to better yourself. Strength is also admitting when is the right time to run away or be afraid. Besides, fighting isn't everything. I imagine I am not all that good at it either. It is such a messy business." Leon said with a shutter. "All that blood and dirty and bruises, it can really mess up one's face and clothes in a horrible way!"

"I hate fighting... So much pain that comes with it, sadly sometimes it can not be helped.... Sometimes though reason can win out." Danny said with a smile.

Leon nodded with a pleasant smile. "Make love not war I always say."

Danny smiled, "In a way the smartest words ever." Danny was feeling a little better now.

"My thoughts exactly." Leon smiled back.

"So what was it like growing up for you?" Danny asked curiously.

"It wasn't bad." Leon replied and smiled softly, leaning back and looking up at the stars. "My dad was a pianist and would write his own music. He hated preforming in public though so he toaught me how to play and I would preform his pieces for him. It didn't make a lot of money so we lived rather humbly but it was nice." He said with a soft smile.

Danny smiled, "It sounds nice."

"Yeah it was." Leon smiled softlhuy. "I suppose that is something that I miss."

Danny looked out at the lake. "I miss my dad...."

"I know the feeling." Leon laughed lightly. "I am still wondering what I am doing here in the first place. If I have been fine until now, why not go back....asides from the occation monster wanting to eat me..."

Danny nodded, "The monsters...." He said with a sigh, "And the quest that they say we are suppose to someday do...."

"Monster's aren't so bad, I imagine, once you know how to take care of them. Never heard anything about a quest though." Leon added with a shrug.
