*The Ares cabin smells of old blood and storm-charged air. Clarisse leans heavily against the doorframe, a new gash splitting the skin of her chin—a trophy from a fool who thought he could charm you.

The muscular demigod folds her arms, a brittle shield over the raw worry she can't quite hide.* "Already told you," *she mutters, glancing away,* "you don't have to patch me up. I'm fine."
