Scorpius Campfire, Sunday Evening

As it turned out, Jen didn't handle hangovers very well, which had something to do with the way she'd managed to completely miss out on any and all pony-related activities yesterday.

She could have been a pony for all she knew, but she'd been asleep through all of it thanks to the wonders of Aleve; apparently 21st-century painkillers had quite the effect on a 31st-century physiology unused to them. So yay for that, she supposed.

She'd managed to get a fire going -- a small and kind of ragged one, definitely not the kind of fire-building that would win a merit badge, but it was erratically crackling away as Jen went through some martial arts forms nearby. Sure, there was a gym on the campgrounds, but being around all these trees made her kind of nostalgic for the days when the best she'd had was that rope-wrapped tree in that Silver Hills park.

Besides, this was where she'd laid out the s'more makings. Duh.

"You should have seen it, Brooke. My arm was all sparkly."

Yes, he was still going to call it an arm.
gobrookeyourself: (considering)

It was harder to blame the ponies on hallucinations due to a spiked water supply this way. "Did you have a tramp stamp too?"

"Tramp sta--" Chad blinked. "Oh, you mean the ass tattoos? Yeah. I had a music note."
gobrookeyourself: (serious talk)

"There are worse ones to have," she decided, considering this.

"I had no complaints," Chad said, shrugging a little. "It seemed to fit. Don't know what else it would have been. Maybe a kitten, but that seems too complex."
gobrookeyourself: (looking over)

[personal profile] gobrookeyourself 2008-05-19 02:27 am (UTC)(link)
"Would it be a kitten like your cat?" she wondered, trying to picture it.

[identity profile] senor-chado.livejournal.com 2008-05-19 02:28 am (UTC)(link)
"Most likely," Chad said, nodding. He was also picturing that it could be a doll like Kon's doll, but he wasn't exactly sure how he'd explain Kon to Brooke, so he didn't mention it.

"Did you turn into a pony, too?"
gobrookeyourself: (or not)

"Noooooo," Brooke said quickly. "I hid. I thought it was a hallucination for a while there."

"...I feel I've failed as a big sib, then," Chad said, shoulders sagging just a bit. "I'm supposed to warn you about stuff like that so you don't think that."
gobrookeyourself: (hearing you out)

[personal profile] gobrookeyourself 2008-05-19 02:37 am (UTC)(link)
"Um, there were colored ponies with tattoos on their asses. I'm totally allowed to think that's drug-induced somehow," Brooke insisted.

"But...it's Fandom," Chad argued lightly, although with a very insistent rumble in his voice that made it clear he felt that this was a valid argument to her point. Just in case, though, he added, "What did you expect?"
gobrookeyourself: (sitting and listening)

[personal profile] gobrookeyourself 2008-05-19 02:45 am (UTC)(link)
"You know, I'm used to turning into different people, and people getting sent into the past, and the appearance of random sperm donor babies and all, but I didn't expect hallucinogenic ponies."

[identity profile] senor-chado.livejournal.com 2008-05-19 02:52 am (UTC)(link)
He almost felt like he shouldn't ask, but Chad had to go back for a second there.

"...Random sperm donor babies?"
gobrookeyourself: (didn't want to hear that)

Brooke sighed heavily. "Yeah. You know that weekend the kids invaded? Mine was vaguely depressing."

[identity profile] senor-chado.livejournal.com 2008-05-19 03:04 am (UTC)(link)
Chad....slowly came around to exactly what that meant. The kid invasion wasn't nearly as shaking when you just had the same kid from last time show up, only older. "Oh..."
gobrookeyourself: (sunshine)

"I know, right?" she said immediately. "I mean, look at me. I could get guys. I could get some really hot guys. Rich ones, probably."

If Chad's response came slow, it was mostly because he had a quick debate about himself as to whether or not he could have this conversation 1)while his boyfriend was in space and 2) with his little sister.

"Oh, yeah," he finally submitted. "Totally. In a flash."
gobrookeyourself: (b&w closeup)

[personal profile] gobrookeyourself 2008-05-19 03:15 am (UTC)(link)
"Thank you," she said, feeling nice and vindicated. "And now I feel better."

[identity profile] senor-chado.livejournal.com 2008-05-19 03:24 am (UTC)(link)
There was a small smile somewhere in the corner of Chad's mouth. "Good. Glad I could help. I mean, definitely hot. I'd be into you if I didn't have a boyfriend already and you weren't my sister."
gobrookeyourself: (party girl)

[personal profile] gobrookeyourself 2008-05-19 03:29 am (UTC)(link)
"Awww," ahe said, genuinely glad to hear that. "I'd be into you, too, but yeah, I like Teddy and also that's kind of incestuous in a way."

"Good to know," Chad said with a thumbs-up, "that we're on the same page."
