Stickbug Campfire - Early Saturday Evening

[once-a-king.livejournal.com]

Armed with a bag of his version of campfire food including sausages, potatoes, salt and pepper, and the inevitable marshmellows, Peter built a fire in the Stickbug firepit.  Lighting it, he passed the time until coals formed by pacing back and forth.  He did not, under any circumstances, look at the main campfire flagpole.

Once the fire had burned down a bit, Peter buried some potatoes at the edge of the firepit and carefully raked out coals to surround them.  He sat to the side of the fire, tending it as needed, reading his new history book, and keeping an eye out for exploding pastries of any sort.

OOC:  Open to all!

Briar was wandering around when he spotted the fire. He waved. So did the vines.

Peter waved back, "evening, Briar. How goes it?"

[greenmagebriar.livejournal.com]

"Well enough. You?"

[once-a-king.livejournal.com]

"It's a beautiful day, Briar. I'm cooking potatoes and sausages. Would you like some?"

[greenmagebriar.livejournal.com]

"Sure, thanks. Um, why is it a beautiful day? Looks exactly like yesterday."

Bel happened to be passing by. "I see you got your hair color back to normal," he called out with a grin.

Peter grinned back. "Yes, well, pink seemed a bit much for the season."

[demonbelthazor]

"Did you learn not to mess with the girls around here?" Bel said. "They can be pretty creative with revenge."

[once-a-king.livejournal.com]

"I appreciate a creative revenge," Peter replied. "It shows ingenuity on their part."

[demonbelthazor]

"Are you plotting payback?" Bel asked. He looked around and saw the remnants of exploded cheesecake littering the ground in front of the Meerkat cabin. "Or have you already done that?"

Briar waved to Bel while his mun tried to remember if they've met. A couple buds turned into roses at that moment and Briar scowled at them.

[demonbelthazor]

"Hey, Briar," Bel said, because yes, they had met. "Nice roses."

[greenmagebriar.livejournal.com]

Briar scowled at the roses. "I can never get them to bloom when I want them to."

[demonbelthazor]

"Still, it's a neat party trick," Bel said.

Tyler waved as he sat down at the edge of the campfire. "Hey."

[once-a-king.livejournal.com]

Peter waved back. "Evening, Tyler. I have sausages and potatoes? Would you like some?"

[tyler-gone.livejournal.com]

"Sounds perfect," Tyler said. "You're cooking them over the fire? That's perfect."

He settled back on his heels. "So what have you been up to today?"

[once-a-king.livejournal.com]

"Over the fire. It's the only way to do it," Peter said as he got a plate and filled it with sauages and a potato before handing it to Tyler.

"And I spent some time in town then went to the Principal's office to claim my shorts. Which weren't there because they're displayed more prominently. Which I haven't officially noticed yet."

Jamie enters the campfire ring. His quest today to rid himself of all glitter has apparently been unsuccessful because he is still sparkly in the fire light.

"Hey gang."

[once-a-king.livejournal.com]

"You're looking glittery, Stickbug Brother," Peter said with a wave. "What happened?"

[multi-madrox.livejournal.com]

"Apparently my underwear drawer? Filled with glitter instead of underwear," Jamie grumbled. "Been trying to get this crap off me all day."

[once-a-king.livejournal.com]

"That's not cricket, at all," Peter said. "Were your shorts in the Principal's office?"

[tyler-gone.livejournal.com]

Tyler snickered when he saw Jamie. "Hey. Auditioning for work as a disco ball?"

[multi-madrox.livejournal.com]

"Ha," Jamie said with a scowl. "I've got plenty of glitter left in my drawer. Don't make me use it on a fellow stickbug."

[tyler-gone.livejournal.com]

Tyler held up both palms in a gesture of appeasement. "Oh, no, anything but glitter," he said flatly. "So who got you, anyhow?"
