Kraken Campfire, Saturday Morning

Seely sat outside the Kraken cabin with a mug of coffee.

Grinning like a massive dork.

[Open!]

Zuko wandered out of the cabin a bit later than usual. Patrolling was so much work. He grunted at Seely in greeting.

"Zuko," Seely nodded, still beaming. "How's Mel?"

Peter eyed Booth as he emerged from the cabin holding a mug of tea. Ignoring him, he went to sat by the fire, poking at it in preparation for lighting.

"She's fine," Zuko answered immediately, then frowned when he realised how that might sound if he was answering questions like that in her place. "You should ask her."

[socksofcool.livejournal.com]

"Hey, Peter," Seely grinned and waved.

[socksofcool.livejournal.com]

"I would if she was here," Seely said, shrugging. "But since you guys are tight and all..."

[once-a-king.livejournal.com]

He blinked. "Are you feeling alright, Booth?" he asked.

John had been up early handwavily running. He smelled coffee and followed it to the Kraken campfire. Good people to talk to were people with coffee.

"Good morning," he addressed the admittedly hot drinker of the coffee, plopping down without being invited.

"Never been better," Seely said, leaning back. "Why do you ask?"

[thebluespirit.livejournal.com]

That got him a scowl. "We're not tight," Zuko protested.

"Morning," Seely replied, and gestured to the carafe near the fire place. "There's coffee."

[socksofcool.livejournal.com]

"Sure you're not," Seely said, in a tone that said he didn't believe him. "Girls are great, aren't they?"

[thebluespirit.livejournal.com]

Zuko was not thinking about a certain shack and what went on there. Really.

"They're girls." There.

"If you insist," John grinned and poured himself some coffee. He drank the coffee happily.

"I don't think I've met anyone in this cabin," he said, reaching out his hand, "I'm John."

[socksofcool.livejournal.com]

"Guess I'm the lucky first then." Seely shook his hand. "Seely."

[once-a-king.livejournal.com]

He looked back at the fire. "No reason."

[once-a-king.livejournal.com]

Peter raised his hand. "Morning, Zuko."

[socksofcool.livejournal.com]

"Yeah," Seely said, dopily.

[socksofcool.livejournal.com]

"So," Seely said. "How's Willow?"

[thebluespirit.livejournal.com]

Alright. Zuko gave Seely a wary look. "What's up with you?"

[socksofcool.livejournal.com]

"Aravis and I went on a date last night," Seely said.

[thebluespirit.livejournal.com]

"Morning Peter," Zuko greeted, glad to be able to ignore Seely.

[missed-the-gate.livejournal.com]

"Seely," John nodded. "Normally I'd make a witty comment about your unusual name, but Fandom has kinda killed that conversational line."

[thebluespirit.livejournal.com]

"Good for you," Zuko said dryly.

Then his eyes widened as he wondered if patrolling counted as dating.

"You came at the right time," he said with a grin and gestured towards the fire. "Want to help out with it?"
