Flamingo Camp Fire (unlit) - Friday Late Morning

[marsheadtilt.livejournal.com]

Veronica had *handwavily* crashed on Weevil's couch after work last night since it was storming and she didn't feel like walking all the way back to camp in the rain. She assumed Archie hadn't made it because of the weather.

After taking a shower and brewing a pot of coffee, she decided to sit outside and enjoy the now much more tolerable weather.

Piper wanderd outside and glanced up at the sky. "Morning, Veronica. Think we'll have more storms today?"

Veronica shrugged. "Hard to say. It looks sunny out my window right now. But at least the humidity has decreased."

[absolutesnark]

"A very good thing, too. I hate humiditiy. It's evil," Piper added.

[marsheadtilt.livejournal.com]

"Very evil," Veronica agreed with a solemn nod.

"Hey, got any brownies left?"

[absolutesnark]

"A few," Piper replied. "I'm surprised Bel didn't eat all of them."

[marsheadtilt.livejournal.com]

"Me too," Veronica said. "I think brownies and coffee would make an excellent late breakfast though," she added with a wink. "Even if it is almost lunch time."

[absolutesnark]

"Then I guess it's brunch," Piper said, snickering. "By the way, I noticed you weren't around last night. Everything okay?"

Archie, rather tousled and still a bit damp with seawater, was on his way back from his morning workshop at Galactica Point when he passed by the Flamingo campfire and spotted Veronica.

"I'm sorry I didn't make it last night," he said awkwardly as he gave up on trying to tuck his shirt back in properly.

"That's okay," Veronica said. "It was a nasty night. I ended up crashing on Weevil's couch because I didn't feel like dealing with the storms."

She took in his appearance. "Rough morning?"

[marsheadtilt.livejournal.com]

"Oh yeah," Veronica said. "I decided to crash on Weevil's couch because of the weather."

Xander, drawn by the smell of coffee, emerged from the cabin looking sleepy and... slightly furrier than usual. Or maybe that was just the ferret on his shoulder. "So um," he said with a wave at his cabinmates. "Last night got a little...interesting."

Veronica looked at Xander, looked at the ferret on his shoulder and looked back at Xander.

"Please tell me that's Bridge and not some prop in kinky sex games."

Archie grimaced. "I'm glad you weren't out in them. I didn't think you'd be too happy about my getting soaked and possibly catching my death --" he smiled ironically -- "by going out after the downpour started. Damn shame, too. I'd been thinking of singing last night."

He glanced down at his wet clothes. "And no, not a rough morning. At least not in any bad way. Apparently Jarod's ideas of things to do at the beach all entail quite a bit of fun. We went canoeing." With a chuckle, he added, "I'm not too used to paddles."

[marsheadtilt.livejournal.com]

"You're right about that," Veronica said. "I was hoping you wouldn't try to venture out and possibly get lost. We really need to work on the phone thing."

She chuckled. "Sounds like fun. I don't think I've ever gone canoeing."

[absolutesnark]

"Don't blame you," Piper said. "The weather was pretty nasty."

[marsheadtilt.livejournal.com]

"Did you do anything interesting last night?" Veronica asked.

[absolutesnark]

Piper waved at Xander and pointed to the plate of brownies. "We've got baked goods."

[absolutesnark]

"Not really," Piper replied. "I stayed inside and listened to my portable radio. And I started planning next week's workshop."

[soldtoarmenians]

Xander blinked. "That's... Bridge. Who is not currently a... what you said, which my brain has decided to protect itself from via a bout of selective amnesia."

[actingltcrumpet.livejournal.com]

"It was fun," said Archie, who looked rather abashed at the mention of the 'phone thing.' Guilty may have been a more accurate description. "Perhaps you and I ought to try it at some point."

[marsheadtilt.livejournal.com]

"Oh, what are you going to make next week?" Veronica asked, eyes wide.

[bridge-carson.livejournal.com]

Bridge skitters down Xander's shoulder and makes a bee ferretline for the brownies.

"That could be nice," Veronica grinned. "We could pack a picnic."

She noticed the guilty look. "Don't worry about it, okay? But it is something you need to get used to before you leave."

[absolutesnark]

"I'm going with French, I think. We're gonna make crepes."

"Sorry, Bridge," Veronica apologized. "Around here, you never know," she said to Xander. "Any idea what happened? Oh, and a word of advice? He might be a little testy if you put an eyepatch on him while he's furry."
