Around the Meerkat Cabin [Shortly Before the Luau Ends, Friday Night]

[whitedeathpod.livejournal.com]

John had snuck away from the campfire very sneakily like and had tiptoed back to investigate a certain cabin. Now, he's just waiting for someone else to show up after making a *handwave* call to him earlier this afternoon.

Cedric took a walk back over to the cabin sites after getting a call from John. He's not entirely sure what to make of the call but he's always willing to listen.

"Hey, you're Cedric?" John asks, keeping his voice low and sneaky like.

"Yes, I am. And you're the fellow who left me a message?" Cedric asks.

"That's me. I need a favor."

"A favor?" Cedric frowns at John. "What sort of favor?"

"I've heard you've got some skill in the magic department. I need that."

Cedric? Frowning again. "What for?"

John points at the cabin. "Can you make that thing go invisible?"

"What, the cabin?" Cedric's already shaking his head. "I don't have any reason to do that."

"Good for the brotherhood of men," John says very seriously.

"I'm not involved in this prank war."

John gets desperate. "I'll pay you."

"I don't need money."

More desperation. "I'll find a way to smuggle tea and crumpets over to you."

Cedric stops arguing and thinks for a moment. "That's quite the deal."

"Will you do it?"

Cedric sighs and says, "I suppose."

He heads off in the direction of the Seahorse cabin and retrieves his wand.

"If this gets me in trouble, I'll turn you into a rodent," Cedric says, wand at the ready.

"Like that's never happened before," John mutters.

Cedric points his wand at the cabin, speaks the incantation for the invisibility spell and watches at the cabin disappears.

"It's still there, not gone forever but you can't see it. I'll come and take the spell off when you're ready."

"Thanks!" John smiles proudly at...nothing.

[OOC: Meerkat cabin is invisible and the doors are locked. Nothing has been damaged. If the Meerkats get into their cabin, they will not be invisible. Spell will be lifted, I promise!]

Buffy smiled to Sam and turned to glance towards the Meerkat cabin.

...Which wasn't there.

"What the hell?" she said, sounding very, very confused.

Dawn, following behind holding hands and being generally schmoopy with Dean, stopped short and almost ran into Buffy. "Where's the cabin?"

[likethegun]

Sam stared for a bit before glancing back at Buffy. "So I'm not the only one looking at an empty space?"

[saltandammo.livejournal.com]

"Nope," Dean said, staring at said empty space. "We seem to be missing a Meerkat cabin."

[1ordinarygirl.livejournal.com]

Buffy stared a little longer as she slowly came to a conclusion, which was; "Those Stickbugs are so dead! WHAT HAVE THEY DONE WITH MY SHOES?!"

The last was shouted very, very loudly.

Aeryn didn't actually plan on spending the night in Meerkat, which is why she's headed towards Stickbug with John. It's hard not to notice, though, that something seems to be missing.

Which leads to the immediate question. "What did you do?"

[whitedeathpod.livejournal.com]

"Nothing," he says innocently. "Bed."

[can_be_more]

Aeryn doesn't move, looking between the cabin and him in turn.

[whitedeathpod.livejournal.com]

"Oh, it's gone." John feigns shock. "Travesty."

[can_be_more]

"You're lucky I'm sleeping in your cabin," she says, conversationally.

Tyler had spent the evening walking in the woods, away from the luau.

He snickered a bit as he saw -- or, rather, didn't see -- the invisible cabin.

Zack blinked. "Didn't we have a cabin?"

[threeweapons.livejournal.com]

"Yes we did." Alanna was starring at the space, pondering where a cabin might go.

Isabel was incredibly content as she and Greg walked back towards the Meerkat cabin. That feeling lasted only as long as it took her to register the fact that the cabin was gone. She blinked. Then turned and gave Greg a long, steady look. "Okay, that's good."

[like-a-sponge.livejournal.com]

"What is?" Greg asked, completely straight-faced. "Hey! Your cabin's gone! That's so weird!"

[izzyalienqueen.livejournal.com]

"Funny how that happened," she said. "Almost like it was stolen even."

[like-a-sponge.livejournal.com]

"Maybe it ran away?" he suggested.

[izzyalienqueen.livejournal.com]

"Possibly. It's Fandom, we had running toilets. A running building really isn't that big of a leap." Isabel crossed her arms and sighed. "It couldn't have waited until we moved out on Sunday?"

Jamie walks by the place where the meerkat cabin should be and gives a smug smile before heading to the gnome-free Stickbug cabin.

Rory walked up with Anakin after the luau and blinked.

"I...swear my cabin was here earlier."

[emo-padawan.livejournal.com]

Anakin frowned. "I believe you," he said. "That's...bizarre."

[auroryborealis.livejournal.com]

Rory looked around. "Where did it go? How do you misplace a cabin?"

[emo-padawan.livejournal.com]

"I'm not sure it's misplaced," Anakin said, still staring, "as much as it's just not here right now."

[auroryborealis.livejournal.com]

Rory bit her lip, bent down and picked up a small rock.

She threw it at where the cabin should have been. The rock bounced off of...nothing.

"...what the hell?"

Molly stopped dead when she saw the absence of cabin. "They didn't."

Walking closer to where the cabin should be, she reached a hand out in front of her before trying to step into the apparently empty space. She stopped when her hand met wall. "Good to know," she said. "Hopefully my bed will still be there too." She made her way around the cabin to the door closest to her alcove.

After fumbling with the key and the door knob for a bit, she finally just shut her eyes and did everything by touch. She almost tripped a couple times and didn't even bother to search for a light switch when she got inside. Shutting the door behind her, she took small sideways steps until she ran into the curtain of her alcove. Shoving that aside, she easily found her bed. Sitting down long enough to only take off her shoes, she quickly climbed into the invisible bed, pulled the invisible covers over herself and fell asleep.
