FDR Campfire, Wednesday evening

[17andinfected.livejournal.com]

Shilo had decided to celebrate a successful first day at work with a fire. So she'd found some kindling, an old newspaper, and matches, and was building a fire the same way that her father had taught her how to in the fireplace.

She didn't know if it worked the same way for a campfire, but she could only hope. Besides, it wasn't as if she was planning on this being someone's funeral pyre. Just a small campfire, and hopefully some company.

She suddenly wondered if she should have stopped for s'mores supplies.

"Remember, those are just for fire extinguishing," Yakko said. He reached into his pocket and pulled out an even larger bag of marshmallows. "But THIS is for eating!"

Shilo let out a giggle. "Well, thank you for both kinds of marshmallows, then."

"Why are you thanking me? These are just for me. Get your own!" Yakko said, hugging the bag territorially.

Shilo arched an eyebrow. "O-okay," she said slowly. "That works too."

"Oh, okay, you can have some, if you insist," Yakko said despite the fact that Shilo hadn't done anything of the sort.

Shilo slowly took one marshmallow from the bag. "Making sure to save some for you," she said by way of explanation.

"I appreciate it," Yakko said. "But you can have another one if you want."

"I'll grab it once I'm ready for it," Shilo replied. "Don't want to rush myself or anything."

She was treading very lightly with Yakko.

"Well, that makes sense. You could get a horrible sugar rush from these," Yakko said. He then grabbed a big handful of marshmallows, opened his mouth wide, and dropped the marshmallows in his mouth.

He didn't even seem to chew them before swallowing.

"Don't you want to... toast them first?" Shilo asked.

"No need," Yakko said. He pulled a small lightbulb with a very long pull chain from his pocket, held it up for a moment, then swallowed it. After a few seconds, he pulled on the chain and his stomach glowed. "If those Easy Bake Oven directions I read are right, they should be nicely toasted in forty to sixty minutes."

"Riiiiiiight." Shilo decided that there was something very, very interesting and sane on the far side of the fire.
