Kraken campfire, Tuesday evening

[dude-its-jude.livejournal.com]

Judas was sitting at the Kraken campfire.

Okay, it was just Jude, but he felt so un-Jude when he was all goth-y that he started thinking of himself as Judas. Long story. Involving vomitting in a girl's mouth. And a vibrating chair.

He was actually on his way to change and wash his face off, but was getting there in his slow, mellow, Jude-like way. Which meant chilling by the campfire and fixing his skateboard.

[[Open. Oh yes.]]

From out of a bush a fuzzy looking thing with a maniacal look in his eye dashes out of a bush.

"CHICKEN BOOK! CHICKEN BOOK!

This is followed by a couple of eggs thrown at Animal from said bush. The eggs hit him and now there's a couple of raw eggs mixed into his fur.

He whips his head around back and forth spraying egg yolk everywhere.

"HAH! HAH! HAH!"

Rikku jumped up, staring. "Whoa. Are you okay? What the ..."

And stared more. "Are ... you .... ?"

There wasn't a good ending to that sentence, so she just let it hang instead.

There's a slight tilt to Animal's head as he gazes at Rikku with wide eyes. He looks at her quietly.

For 1/25th of a second.

"WOO-MAN! WOO-MAN!"

And now he's chasing after her with arms all a-flail.

"Hey! Whoa! Back off!" Rikku started to run away, and instead whirled to a stop, arms out defensively. "What ... whoa! What is wrong with you!?!"

Had one of her friends been turned into a ... what the heck was he, anyway!?!

Animal gave the girl a confused a look.

"WOOOO-MAN?"

[the_merriest]

"Are you ... uh." Rikku knelt down. "Are you hurt? Are you somebody's pet? Are you ... Fandom being weird again?"

"ANIMAL! ANIMAL!

Yes. That's the best answer he can give.

[the_merriest]

"Is ... that your name?" Rikku bit her lip, thinking. Then held a hand on her own chest. "Rikku. Ree - coo."

"Are you hungry, Animal?" Someone had to be missing him, right?

[lovesrenoir.livejournal.com]

"REE - COO! REE - COO!"

Then a second later.

"HUNGRY! HUNGRY!"

[the_merriest]

Rikku grinned. "Very good! Hi, Animal! Uh, we've gotta have food around here somewhere."

She scrounged for food around the edges of the campfire set up in a rather handwavey haphazard manner. "Do you, uh, belong to somebody, Animal?"

Whatever food was handed to Animal was quickly devoured.

"CTHULU! CTHULU!" Animal answered. He might be thinking that Rikku was asking about what cabin he belonged to.

[the_merriest]

"Oh! Careful! You could eat someone's hands, like that!" Rikku didn't know a student named Cthulu, and wasn't sure she wanted to.

"Are you ... a student here? Stu - dent? Or a pet?" She wasn't sure why she thought he'd know, but it couldn't hurt to ask.

"Holy crap."

[lovesrenoir.livejournal.com]

Animal wags his arm at Billy in a "shame shame" gesture.

"LANGUAGE. HAH! HAH! HAH!"

[l1ttle-billy.livejournal.com]

Billy snickered. "Sorry, didn't mean to offend you."

Aravis stared in horror.

"SOR-RY!"
