Chupacabra Campfire [Late Afternoon]

[sixstandingby.livejournal.com]

Being inside the cabin means he can't run away should anyway try to tease him. Being outside, at least, means he can try and run away. Still, it's not like either option is good.

ONE WEEK.

He's been here one week and already he's made a gigantic fool of himself. He didn't even know who Siegfried and Roy were. And he told Luke waaaaaaaay too much. And thought the droid was a tiger.

He pulled a jacket over his head and tried to hide...in plain sight.

[Open! Come and make fun of him all you want or just hang at the campfire!]

Inara, carrying a book, took a seat by the fire when she saw Gavin. "Good afternoon," she smiled at him.

[sixstandingby.livejournal.com]

"Hello," he said, peeking outside his jacket to see who it was. "Inara, hi."

Vi waved to the girl. "What are you reading?" she asked.

Katara waved. "Hi Inara! How're you?"

[sarcasm-guy.livejournal.com]

Sokka waved at Inara. "Hey there. I'm Sokka. How's the book?"

"Gavin?" Karal came over and sat next to him, peering at him doubtfully. "Are you all right?"

[sixstandingby.livejournal.com]

"Can I come hide under your bed?" he asked. "Please?"

[sarcasm-guy.livejournal.com]

Sokka waved at the guy he didn't know.

Kou looked at Gavin, raising an eyebrow. "So...are you normal again, or still speaking bad German?"

[sixstandingby.livejournal.com]

"Normal," he said and hid further under his jacket. "Sorry about yesterday."

[sarcasm-guy.livejournal.com]

Sokka boggled at Kou. "Those are some AWESOME tattoos!" Because introductions come after the awesome.

Vi wandered out to the campfire with a bag of Doritos in hand. "Hey," she said to the group. 'Anyone want some chips?"

[sixstandingby.livejournal.com]

"No, thanks," Gavin said from under his jacket.

[southernbender.livejournal.com]

Katara waved to the girl she didn't know. "Hi! I'm Katara."

[sarcasm-guy.livejournal.com]

Sokka looked at Vi with big puppy dog eyes. "Hi, I'm Sokka. Are those for sharing?"

[girlzippo.livejournal.com]

"Ooo, Doritos. Are those Ranch flavor?" Charlie looked hopeful, then added, "Nice hat."

Katara was wandering back to her cabin when she noticed the boy under the coat. "Are you okay? Did you get sunburned?"

[sixstandingby.livejournal.com]

"No," he said and peeked out. "I think I didn't. Did I?"

[sarcasm-guy.livejournal.com]

Sokka waved at Katara and smiled. "Hey!"

"I had to try and liberate the droid," Jaina greeted him. "If you're going to talk in strange accents at me today, we're going to have to Talk."

Gavin made a strangled sound and pulled the jacket down over his face.

Z looked down at the jacket Gavin was hiding under and informed him, "If you're really Luke's boyfriend I now have to give you the speech about how if you hurt him I'll kill you. If you're not really Luke's boyfriend, I have to give you the speech about how if you hurt the droid I'll kill you." Z likes the droid. And Luke, but Luke can take care of himself. Except that one time he managed to cut his own hand off (or so she thought).

Gavin's only reply was to groan and try to hide further under his jacket.

[sarcasm-guy.livejournal.com]

A campfire! With people! And his sister!

Sokka vaulted onto a log, sitting down hard with an "oof!" and knocking some dirt into the fire.

"Dude, what's with the jacket?"

[sixstandingby.livejournal.com]

"Hiding," Gavin answered. "No one can see me."

[girlzippo.livejournal.com]

Charlie came by after another walk on the beach, and waved to the familiar faces, glad that she recognized more people now. "Hey." She blinked at Gavin. "Is it going to rain?"

[sixstandingby.livejournal.com]

"Maybe," he said, voice muffled. "I can't see the sky."

Looking for a distraction after saying good-bye to Parker, Isabel stopped by the crowd. "Hey folks," she said, grinning at Gavin.

[solo_sword]

"This town is insane!" Jaina greeted her, half-smiling.

[the_merriest]

Okay, he looked embarrassed. Embarrassed was good, right? He hadn't looked all that embarrassed when he was using his butt to ... you know, she just wasn't going to think about the quarters at all.

"Gavin? Uh, are you Gavin today?" Rikku really, really hoped he was.

[sixstandingby.livejournal.com]

"Gavin's not here," he replied, hiding some more.
