Pangolin Campfire, Sunday Evening

[cantgetnorelief.livejournal.com]

Anders had moved his things into the cabin and gotten the TV and DVD player hooked back up, and Brandly the goldfish was swimming around in his bowl in the cabin living room. (Anders couldn't figure out why the little guy seemed so animated, all of a sudden.)

And now it was relaxation time. He got the campfire going outside and settled down in front of it with a box of cupcakes, hoping some of his other cabinmates would show up soon.

"Hey, dude!" Bridge says as he walks up to the cabin, duffel bag in hand. "Back in a sec." He goes inside, throws his stuff down in his bunk, and then walks back outside and sits down in front of the campfire.

"Hey, dude," Anders says. "You made it. Cupcake?"

He miiiiiiiiiiiight be arching a quizzical eyebrow at Bridge. "Have fun last night?"

Bridge grabs a cupcake, of course.

And then pauses mid-bite and just kind of *stares* at Anders. "Um."

[cantgetnorelief.livejournal.com]

Anders kind of smirks. "Hey, more power to you, dude. I'm kinda surprised half the dorm wasn't banging down both of our doors last night."

"You and Conner were-" Bridge says. "I didn't even... huh."

Xander, after handwavily dumping his own stuff in Flamingo, wandered over to Pangolin, pretty sure he'd find Bridge there, but also just for some company, since his own cabin still seemed to be empty.

"Hey guys! What's up?" he said with a wave, completely unaware of the current topic of conversation.

"Harris! Cupcake?" Anders asked, because that was the standard greeting when baked goods were on hand. "Apparently you were, last night."

[cantgetnorelief.livejournal.com]

"Damn," Anders says. "You guys must have been having fun, then."

[soldtoarmenians]

Xander's hand was halfway to the cupcake, because that was the standard response when baked goods were on hand, before he blinked and his eyes widened.

"Er..."

[bridge-carson.livejournal.com]

"That... would be a fairly accurate assessment, yes." Bridge says, blushing.

If Angela had realized exactly how soon they needed to be back in the cabins, she wouldn't have bothered spending Saturday afternoon unpacking.

Sadly, she didn't, so she did. Which meant she spent Sunday sleeping off her jetlag and repacking, then schlepping over to the cabin.

She did brighten a bit when she reemerged and saw what Bridge and Anders were eating. "There are cupcakes?"

[cantgetnorelief.livejournal.com]

"Of course there are cupcakes, Chase," Anders said in mock reproof, "so come have one. Or more. You in here with us, then?"

[bridge-carson.livejournal.com]

Bridge? Still blushing.

"Hi!" he says, perhaps a tad too brightly.

[bridge-carson.livejournal.com]

"Hey, Angela!" Bridge waves.

[cantgetnorelief.livejournal.com]

"Hey. I'm happy for you, man. No need to be embarrassed, right?" Anders reaches over and punches him lightly in the shoulder.

[cantgetnorelief.livejournal.com]

"Hey," Anders said, shaking a cupcake at him in an entirely nondirty way. "This is the sort of thing where congratulations are in order."

[chasingangela]

Angela took a cupcake and nibbled on it. "Yep. You, Bridge and somebody called Z. I threw my stuff on a bed, it looks pretty nice for a cabin."

[chasingangela]

"Bridge!," Angela greeted. "How have you been for the last, like, two months?"

[soldtoarmenians]

"I need congratulating because I got it u--" WTF, mouth, WTF? Xander reached for the cupcake largely so he'd have something to stuff in said mouth NOT DIRTY. "Um. Thanks? I guess?"

[cantgetnorelief.livejournal.com]

"Oh." Anders crumbled a little bit of cupcake off in his hand and stared at it before popping it into his mouth. "You've got Cally's old bunk, then."

He tossed his cupcake wrapper into the fire. "Gah. I'm not holding that against you or anything, okay? Sorry. I'm trying really hard not to bring the emo here."

[soldtoarmenians]

Yeah, at this point, he's not the only one. "Um. Hi."

[cantgetnorelief.livejournal.com]

Anders snickered. "The congratulations are for the consequences, dork. Just, you know, thin walls and all. It was impressive."

[bridge-carson.livejournal.com]

"Soooo apparently the walls in the dorms are kinda thin."

[soldtoarmenians]

"Angela!" Xander said, about as too-brightly as Bridge had greeted him - though he was relieved to be greeting somebody who presumably wasn't familiar with the previous topic of conversation. "Welcome back!"

[chasingangela]

"It's okay," Angela said, though she was reminded again of why she and Marty didn't live together -- other than that she was pretty sure her mom would kill them both if they tried it and she ever found out. "Just ... um, you don't walk in your sleep or anything, do you? Because I'd kind of rather you didn't confuse me for her."
