THE PREMISE, THE SUSPENSE. this is too good.
cant get over will being a bit of a jerk. whats he hiding? i think hes projecting his insecurities onto jack, firing a medic over something somewhat minor was uncalled for, especially the way he did it. he knows better.
if it were serious, the aphrodite kid wouldve been taken to the infirmary, in the very least there would be someone with her allegedly unconscious body waiting for medical assistance
something is quite definitely y afoot.
also there are a few minor (spelling) mistakes & a lil error: patients with allergies, not allergens :)
"the damn texan" is funnier than it has any right to be lol
THE LIL BLUE FROG IS KILLING ME AHAHAHAHA can i name it?
My parentage is changing.
A fanfic of my own character that kinda goes into the lore of my character, altering the story to where they have multiple personalities inspired by the schizophrenic episodes of the Greco-Roman gods (and ofc @bright-side-of-the-moon)

Chapter 1: Will loses track of a patient.
IT WAS A DAY LIKE NO OTHER.
I was doing rounds- checking I was stocked on bandages, my list of patients with allergens, my medicine was stocked, I had plenty nectar and ambrosia, watering my sunflower given to me as a welcome gift by Will Solace when I got claimed, playing my morning playlist of Conan Gray, Olivia Rodrigo, Em Beihold, Claire Rosinkranz, Camilla Cabello- the usual.
Until I get interrupted by a knock on my office door.
I stop playing my music and head to the door, opening it with slight annoyance.
"Yeah? Who is it-"
"Hey, sorry Jacks, I know you're doing rounds but... we have a medical emergency in cabin 3," The person said. It was my freckled, suntanned, tall, blond brother. Will Solace. He was never good at telling me when there was medical emergencies. Especially during the morning.
"I can't help them," I sigh. "I was just about to reorganize my files in alphabetical order again-"
"Well- I- uhh- As Head Counselor slash Medic, I demand you go check on your patient!" He said, puffing out his chest and pointing a finger in the air.
I just stared at him for a while.
"It's been a week and you're pulling that card on me?"
"Just go down-"
"No."
"Pleeeease?"
"Hmm.... no."
"I'll give you unlimited access to all patient files."
"Where's the camper?" I throw on my lab coat.
"New that would getcha."
"I need blackmail on the Stoll brothers, I take wins where I can get them." *I adjust something slightly out of place on my coat then walk past Will.
Will shrugs. "Fair enough."
We walk towards the strawberry fields, making small talk on the way. You know, the usual.
"How many people died last week?" I ask nonchalantly, as if death doesn't bother me anymore.
"Surprisingly, one," Will says while stepping over a mushroom that looked like it was on the verge of exploding. "He fell off of the rock climbing wall."
"Was he drunk?"
"Nope."
"Was he wearing any safety gear?"
"Also, nope."
"Well no duh, it's written on a giant sign to wear the proper equipment with supervision if you want to climb on the wall," I hop over a loose root in the ground. "It's literally the number one rule."
"It was an Ares kid."
"Okay, that makes much more sense."
We make it to the fields, with no one to be seen. Nobody. Anywhere, no matter where you looked. Not a single Satyr, bug, or demigod.
"Uh... Will?" I turn to him and bat my eyes. "Where's. The. Damn. Patient."
"How should I know?!"
"YOU'RE THE HEAD MEDIC. THAT'S YOUR JOB."
"NUH-UH- wait, no. You actually have a point. Am I gonna get fired?" Will was panicking, I was pissed, and we have a missing (probably dying, let's be honest) patient that's nowhere to be seen. "Oh gods, what do I tell Nico?!-"
"Calm down. You find that patient, before Chiron and Mr. D have your practicing license for a month. I'll go ask any nearby campers if they seen anyone..." I pause for a moment. "What did you say this patient looked like again?"
"I- uh.... Girl, very pretty, smelled like-"
"Let me remind you, you have a boyfriend that I know very well."
"Shut up," Will's face taking on the same hue of the strawberry milk served at lunch. "As I was saying, she was a daughter of Aphrodite. She was supposedly having a heat stroke-"
"Why would a child of Aphrodite be all the way out here in the Strawberry fields?" I interrupt. "Sorry, my bad. Please continue."
"-That caused her to pass out," Will continued, albeit, very annoyed. "She was saying something about needing water, and a Cabin Three kid went to the lake to purify some water for her to drink."
"That all?"
"No, she passed out and... well... You know the story from there."
I hum in thought. Being the gremlin I am, I walk away back to my office. "If she's not here, that means she's okay, or someone else os already treating her. Now about those medical documents-"
"What." Will said incredulously. "Not even gonna look for her?- What if there's a dead camper on my hands, and you just walk away?"
I nod. "Pretty much, yeah."
Will stares at me, dumbfounded and slowly getting more and more pissed off. "You're a terrible medic."
"If there's no patient to treat, there's no problem to meet." Ignoring Will's comment, I continue walking away. "I need to finish my rounds."
"You're fired."
I stop dead in my tracks, slowly turning around. "What?"
"You. Are. Fired"
"Y-you can't fire me?!" I walk up to him. "Only-"
"I don't care. Go to the Hermes cabin. And stay there. You're license is officially revoked."
"W-what..." I mumble, terrified. "Y-you can't do this to me- you're taking away my entire purpose-"
"That's the point," He folded his arms, towering over me, the damn Texan. "Get out my damn sight before I do something I regret."
"B-but my documents... My parients- You- you can't do this to me!"
"You are dismissed."
I felt the tension build up in my chest. My grip on my reality slipping away. The tears welling up in my eyes, burning hotter than any of the forges in Cabin 9. My breath became warm, my throat closing up and becoming dry as the tears fall off of my cheeks like rain. My nose and cheeks redder than any strawberry in the field.
I grip onto Will's shirt, falling to my knees and crying into Will's shirt. "P-please W-Will.... D-don't do this...." I sob.
"You have till the Harpies come out to move." Will said coldly, walking past me. Muttering and mumbling to himself to calm himself down as I slowly fall to the floor. Curling into a ball and clutching my stomach as my tears turn the dirt underneath my face slowly turning to mud with my tears.
So that was chapter 1 !!
Thank you so much for reading and I really hope you enjoyed!
A like would be greatly appreciated because it really supports me (you don't have to if you don't want to) :]
