Little Dipper Campfire [Wednesday Evening]

Earlier in the day, Ned had decided he'd spent entirely too long holed up in his alcove. Of course, it took him several hours after that initial realization before getting up and out of bed, changing and heading outside, Digby at his heels.

The dog was, possibly, happier than anyone that Ned had decided to get out of his stupid funk. He lit a fire as best he could and took a seat.

He started contemplating baking sweets over an open fire. He decided that would only lead to tears.

"Just the man I was lookin' for!" Kaylee greeted, peeking out of the cabin and grinning at him.

Kaylee nodded. "Hang on a sec."

She ducked back in the cabin, snagged the clock she'd finished working on, and headed back out to the campfire to hold it out to him. "Here y'go."

"Fixed it," she chirped. "An' 'less I did it wrong, which I don't think I did, it should stay shiny for the rest of its cute little clocky life. Which should be longer, too, now that I took out all the extra crap they shove in there." Kaylee rolled her eyes. "People like t'make this stuff so complicated, adding extra parts in like that."

It might also be noticeable that on the bottom of the clock, in a corner, there was a little, purple K in a very feminine hand, with a flower beside it.

"Welcome," she told him, grinning. "It was fun."

Kaylee did take a seat, watching him with the clock. "It don't fly or nothin'," she pointed out, giggling at how he was holding onto it.

She shrugged. "It weren't no bother, and I had fun," she promised. "You need anything else tinkered with, you bring it to me, okay?"

"Good!" she said cheerfully. "I finished those little cakes."

She nodded. "They're gonna have to find a good freight ship to send me home, at this rate."

"Chocolate," she decided, nodding. "I need to try other kinds, though."

"I could form a club," she mused.

Kaylee liked that. "Would I get a shiny hat, still?"

"You can be my second," she promised, grinning.
