Scorpius Campfire, Sunday Evening

[time-flyer-5.livejournal.com]

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.

He almost felt like he shouldn't ask, but Chad had to go back for a second there.

"...Random sperm donor babies?"

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

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..."

"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]

"Thank you," she said, feeling nice and vindicated. "And now I feel better."

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]

"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."
