Thursday Night: Main Campfire

[grand-fallguy.livejournal.com]

Tim had the remainder of his chocolate, and was leaning against a log, dozing. he had the vague notion of allowing himself to fall asleep here, but for now, he was idly munching on chocolate with his eyes mostly closed.

Open for all! Come say hi!

Marie was kind of bored. After spending the morning in the gym, she hadn't done much of anything the rest of the day. So she wandered outside to see if anyone was around.

"Hey," she greeted Tim as she approached the main campfire. "How are you?"

[grand-fallguy.livejournal.com]

"I'm good." Tim said, holding out his bag of chocolate. "Care for some chocolatey goodness? It goes well with the fire."

[untouchableskin.livejournal.com]

"Girls never turn down chocolate," Marie said with a grin, taking a piece and grabbing a seat near him.

"How are your workshops going?"

[grand-fallguy.livejournal.com]

"They're going well." Tim said. "I'm looking forward to Campfire stories, and the Nature magic was interesting. I didn't have much to say during Leadership, but I learned a few things that were pretty cool."

"Well that's always good," Marie said. "I had writing and astronomy so far. Tomorrow is Applied Dadaism, which I have no idea what that means, but it's something to do with fun and games, so I'm hoping it will be fun."

[grand-fallguy.livejournal.com]

"Hey I'm in that one too. I'm not too clear on what it means either." Tim admitted. "But it's Artie teaching it so I imagine it's something interesting."

[untouchableskin.livejournal.com]

"Someone told me they met the teacher and he was odd," Marie said. "But I don't think anyone knows what it means. Guess we'll find out tomorrow."

[grand-fallguy.livejournal.com]

"When I saw him he asked me if my day was pipe, and was using a net to try to catch emo." Tim said. "So, yeah. Odd."

Sakurazaki figures that it's the least she can do to try to be social before she flies off into the night on a refresher retreat of her soul.

Of course, being social means stalking over to the main campfire, plopping down, and smiling nervously at people, but, hey, it was something.

Tim cracked an eye open and waved his candy at her. omg dirty

[bound2blade.livejournal.com]

Sakurazaki starts with just a simple wave back, but, what the hell. She will be even more social and venture for conversational purposes only, "What's that?" peppermint stick? She wasn't a fan of candy, but she was interested to see what sort of weird snacks everyone likes. Maybe it could be a documentary topic.

"Chocolate." Tim said. "I got a variety bag from wonka's."

[bound2blade.livejournal.com]

Chocolate. She makes a mental note. "And what sorts of variety are there?"

[grand-fallguy.livejournal.com]

"Let's see," Tim rummaged through the bag. "Uhm, Peppermint Patties, milk chocolate wafers, chocolate tadpoles, Crunchy Frog, here's some chocolate peanut butter bars..."

[bound2blade.livejournal.com]

"Chocolate....tadpoles?"

She blinks, and wishes she had her English dictionary on hand to double check that meaning.

[grand-fallguy.livejournal.com]

"I'm pretty sure they're peanuts coated in chocolate, and the chocolate is shaped to look like a tadpole." tim said. "I'm really hoping that's what it is."

John smells chocolate like he's got a craving and sits at the edge of the campfire ring, basking in the smoke.

[grand-fallguy.livejournal.com]

Tim waved. "Hey, dont' think I've met you yet."

[apocalypsesoon.livejournal.com]

"John Connor." Hand out for a handshake. "Yourself?"

[grand-fallguy.livejournal.com]

"Tim Desmond." Tim shook his hand. "you new too?"

[apocalypsesoon.livejournal.com]

"Naw, been here almost a year. Crazy year. First weeks?"

[grand-fallguy.livejournal.com]

Tim grinned and nodded. "Yep. Interesting town you all got here." he said.

[apocalypsesoon.livejournal.com]

"Pfft. It ain't my town. That's for sure."

[grand-fallguy.livejournal.com]

Tim wondered if he'd detected a bit of bitterness there. "Well I was speaking in general of people who weren't new." he shrugged. "You must not hate it if you've been here so long."

[apocalypsesoon.livejournal.com]

"I've got my reasons."

He turns back to this Tim guy, trying to brighten his mood. "So what're you in for? What workshops?"

[grand-fallguy.livejournal.com]

"Dadaism, Leadership, Nature Magic and Storytelling." Tim said. "I deal with a lot of unusual stuff back home, so I came here to further my skills in doing so."

[apocalypsesoon.livejournal.com]

"How's the Leadership?Wanted totake it, butnever signed up."

[grand-fallguy.livejournal.com]

"I learned quite a bit about camping and such." tim said. "the first class mostly was about that, which I know pretty much nothing about. I've spent the vast majority of my life in the wilderness of New York City."

and now I'm off to see x-men

[apocalypsesoon.livejournal.com]

"NYC? That's not too far. So. It's a camping class. Huh." That's not disdain, really. I swear.


xmen3: Still No Gambit!

"Well it's leadership/outdoorsmanship." tim said.

yeah what's up with that?

[apocalypsesoon.livejournal.com]

"So when's the leadership kick in?"

[grand-fallguy.livejournal.com]

"Not sure." tim said. "But I'm anticipating possible fireworks when that many people training to be leaders have to, well not be the leader."
