#edited since CJC has come out since i made this draft but my questions have still not been answered

[aroaceleovaldez]

sometimes i wonder how the roman camp takes in new campers, since Percy’s entrance seemed less-than-average, judging by reactions. And CJC doesn’t really answer it either cause we don’t see the in-between of Claudia training and joining the legion. We don’t see it with Mimi either, and with Mimi we can’t really confirm if the reason she was seemingly alone was because Lupa doesn’t usually bring them to the entrance of camp, if she had left already, or if Mimi’s stench powers made Lupa avoid her.

Like, does Lupa normally just walk in whatever group she just finished training (since we know the pack will come pick up new campers sometimes)? Do they have to awkwardly walk in on their own and explain they’re coming over from the Wolf House? Does CJ keep track of who is currently at the Wolf House so they know to let them in when they’re done training? Is there any kind of documentation about their training and how it went or is it just “source: dude trust me” (which is implied how Hazel’s went)? how does this work.
