Sunday Night: Main Campfire [5-26-08]

[lovelylana.livejournal.com]

Lana decided to venture out to the main campfire tonight. She'd brought the fixings for s'mores and was happy to spend the night toasting marshmallows and watching the stars. Though she'd certainly prefer not doing it alone.

"Good evening," Giselle said happily as she wandered by the campfire.

"Hi," Lana said with a smile and offered a rather gooey treat. "S'mores?"

[stucklikadope.livejournal.com]

Giselle tilted her head, inspecting the thing in her hand closely. "What is that?"

[lovelylana.livejournal.com]

"Graham crackers, toasted marshmallow and chocolate," Lana said. "Messy, but utterly delicious."

[stucklikadope.livejournal.com]

"That sounds wonderful!" she exclaimed. "Are you sure you have enough for you? It's so kind of you to offer."

Hoshi gave a little wave at the girl she didn't recognize. "You must be new."

[stucklikadope.livejournal.com]

"I am!" Giselle said, beaming at the other girl. "My name is Giselle."

"Nice to meet you, Giselle. I'm Hoshi Sato," she said. "What year are you?"

[stucklikadope.livejournal.com]

"Year?" she asked. "Oh, I'm 16."

"Ooh, I didn't know we could use the big campfire," said Hoshi, taking a seat at one of the logs. "It makes sense, though, if you want to have one big gathering."

"Hey Hoshi," Lana said with a smile. "Well, I don't know if this will end up being a big gathering, but I thought I'd try to venture out beyond my own cabin for a change."

"Memorial Day is a day for gatherings, right?" asked Hoshi, thinking. "It's not exactly a holiday where I come from, but I've heard about it. There's supposed to be hamburgers and fireworks."

[lovelylana.livejournal.com]

Lana nodded. "Right. It's a pretty big deal back home, but it doesn't really seem to be here."

"Probably because everyone's from different places," said Hoshi. "Anyway, how is your summer going so far?"

While she was quite pleased that she'd made it into radio again (although, really, it wasn't like she had any doubt), Turtle still felt awkward about the whole idea of having her Monday nights free. Thankfully, that's why there was campfire hopping and she was excited to see what she was seeing here.

"Ooh! Getting use out of the main campfire! I approve!"

"Hey, Turtle," Lana said, waving her over. "Come have a s'more."

[stocksgrrl.livejournal.com]

"Gladly!" Turtle chirped, bouncing over and setting herself up to make one. "Thank you muchly! How've you been, Lana?"

[lovelylana.livejournal.com]

"I'm good," Lana said. "Things have been very quiet, but good. And you?"

[stocksgrrl.livejournal.com]

"No complaints," Turtle admitted happily. "Another semester of Turtle radio lives on strong, it's summer, and we're in France. So I might even say that I'm pretty damn good overall, glad to say."

Giselle waved, her other hand full of a s'more. "Hello! Do they not often make use of this fire?"

[stocksgrrl.livejournal.com]

Turtle waved back. "Nope; most everyone just tends to use the cabin ones. Hi, by the way. I'm Turtle." She promptly offered out her hand.

[stucklikadope.livejournal.com]

"I'm Giselle," she said, tilting her head at Turtle's hand. "Err-" Finally she touched her fingers to Turtle's.

[itsjustlanguage.livejournal.com]

"I voted for you!" said Hoshi when she spotted Turtle.

[stocksgrrl.livejournal.com]

"Thanks!" Turtle beamed. "It must have worked! I'm in!"

[itsjustlanguage.livejournal.com]

"Yay!" said Hoshi. "We should celebrate with smores."
