Main Campfire - Evening

Isabel and Cameron had managed to get the campfire going in the main area. Luckily the weather was a lot clearer than yesterday and things had remained dry. There were several containers with snacks and beverages standing along the side and there was an abundance of marshmallows for people to get through a whole weekend with.

And now it was just a matter of waiting for people to show up and recapture the cabin spirit one last time before fall and winter truly set in.


((Open like an open thing. There were posters up yesterday so there's no excuse for your character not to know about it! Unless, of course, you happen to have a stubborn one who has trouble reading stuff. Ah, aren't you blessed if you do.))

Rory takes a seat beside him. "So, is this like, perilously cold for you, California Boy?"

"I wouldn't say perilously," Bridge says. "Plus, I've got gloves," he holds up both hands and wiggles his fingers to demonstrate. "So it's all good." He looks as if he's about to add something else, but then thinks better of it.

"And today we match," Rory adds, holding up her own gloved hands and wiggling the fingers. "Though mine are pink, so not quite with the exact matching. But still."

"Yay matching!" Bridge agrees. "Wanna do the marshmallow-roasting thing?"

"Okay!" Rory says. "Do you like, burn yours? Because I am very, very good at toasting them. I'm an expert. I am a marshmallow-toasting ninja...goddess or something."

"You want to toast mine for me, then?" Bridge says, spearing the marshmallows he'd got from Peter on to sticks for himself and Rory. "I don't think I'm a marshmallow ninja."

"It's okay, you have other talents," Rory assures him as she takes the sticks, and plants a quick kiss on his cheek.

"But do they measure up to ninja-ness?" Bridge asks, unable to stop the somewhat goofy grin at the cheek-kissing.

"You are the ninja of many things that I can't do," she explains patiently. "You can be the healthy food ninja, perhaps."

"Healthfood ninja," Bridge muses. "That could work..."

[identity profile] auroryborealis.livejournal.com 2006-10-29 03:09 am (UTC)(link)
Rory frowns suddenly, and says, "Wait, no, because wouldn't that make us, like, sworn enemies? If I'm the marshmallow ninja, I mean."

Bridge's eyes widen. "I didn't think of that!"

[identity profile] auroryborealis.livejournal.com 2006-10-29 03:15 am (UTC)(link)
"Wait, wait, I know!" Rory says excitedly. "You can be the shushing ninja! You're really good at that and I'm all quiet anyway so we're like, allies now."

She beams at him and pulls their perfectly toasted marshmallows out of the fire.

"There you go again with the being smart!" Bridge says with a laugh.

[identity profile] auroryborealis.livejournal.com 2006-10-29 03:21 am (UTC)(link)
"I'm also a thinky ninja," she says wisely. "Marshmallow?"

[identity profile] bridge-carson.livejournal.com 2006-10-29 03:39 am (UTC)(link)
"Yes please," Bridge says, leaning over to bite the marshmallow right off the stick. As he chews, he gives Rory a thumbs up.

Rory frowns at the thumbs-up, and eats her own marshmallow.

"I was eating marshmallow!" Bridge says, defending himself before leaning over to kiss Rory. And maybe lick that little tiny bit of melty marshmallow-ness from the corner of her mouth, there...

Rory balks a tiny bit at that, but hey, it's fun so she just smiles into the kiss and enjoys the warmth.

"You taste all marshmallowy," she says when she breaks the kiss, leaning her head against his. Which is probably the most obvious thing ever for her to say, but it's not one of her most insightful moments.

"So do you," Bridge points out, grinning.

[identity profile] auroryborealis.livejournal.com 2006-10-29 04:18 am (UTC)(link)
"How odd," Rory says, and kisses him again because he's right there and she wants to.

[identity profile] bridge-carson.livejournal.com 2006-10-29 04:47 am (UTC)(link)
"I can't possibly imagine how that could have happened."

[identity profile] auroryborealis.livejournal.com 2006-10-29 04:50 am (UTC)(link)
"I don't know," Rory says seriously. "Can we somehow blame elves?"

[identity profile] bridge-carson.livejournal.com 2006-10-29 05:13 am (UTC)(link)
"We could blame marshmallows," Bridge says. "They have an agenda. It's very sneaky."

[identity profile] auroryborealis.livejournal.com 2006-10-29 05:27 am (UTC)(link)
"Do they?" Rory asks, looking raptly fascinated and resting her head against Bridge's shoulder while she skewers another pair of marshmallows.
