LBJ Campfire, Monday Evening

[rocksthescarf.livejournal.com]

Chuck didn't know who started the campfire outside his cabin but he was glad that someone did. He was capable of working a lighter but that whole Boy Scout-y wood and newspaper in the optimal fire starting position thing was lost on him. So when people did the hard stuff for him he was appreciative. Silently appreciative. He wasn't about to be thanking people out loud.

Now he was sitting back against a log with a joint in his hand and was debating going back inside the cabin to grab marshmallows. Maybe after the munchies set in.

"Hey, old man," Hannibal said, wandering over since his campfire was empty. "Got your AARP membership yet?"

[rocksthescarf.livejournal.com]

"Not yet. I'm sure it's in the mail," Chuck said. "Can't wait to get that discount at the movie theater."

Rose should be enjoying this whole 'no classes' thing, but she was more bored than that. And annoyed that she was here sitting on her butt instead of doing her job.

But the obvious smell made her almost feel at home, and she detoured to the campfire and the guy sitting by it. "Hey there."

Oooh cute girl. Chuck gave her a smile and waved at her with the hand that was holding the joint. "Hello."

[decoder-rings.livejournal.com]

"Hey, new girl!" Hannibal greeted. "Or girl I haven't met yet which is just a shame, if it's true."

Jack smiled at Rose. "I didn't scare you off," he offered. "Good. I'm glad to see you again."

Fiona made it a habit of stopping at fires, especially if there were people there she hadn't met. Of course, this was the first time someone was smoking something that wasn't a cigarette.

Considering how she'd broken the law (and probably should be considered an enemy of the United States government), she wasn't about to bother him about whatever he had in that wrapper, but she was curious.

"Hello," she started, figuring the classics were always a good way to begin.

"Hi," Chuck said, giving the unfamiliar girl a smile. "You don't live in this cabin, do you?"

He was still having trouble picking out just who lived in his cabin.

Adora was pleased to see people (even ones who'd beaten her at basketball) at her cabin's fire and she smiled at all her friends, new and old. "Good evening!"

[rocksthescarf.livejournal.com]

"Hello, Adora," Chuck said. "How are you this evening?"

[decoder-rings.livejournal.com]

"We meet again," Hannibal said, smiling. "Planning on jumping on me?"

[bitten_notshy]

It was impossible for Jack not to smile in return to Adora's smile. "I don't believe we've met yet," he said. "I'm Jack. I've been here all of a week."

It seemed that they really were taking Tahiri's advice to heart about hanging out around campfires, because this was now twice in one day that Firekeeper and Blind Seer stopped by one.

"Hello," Firekeeper said, raising an eyebrow at... whatever it was Chuck was smoking, and noting the unfamiliar scent.

[rocksthescarf.livejournal.com]

"Hello," Chuck said with a big smile. He was high enough now to be pleasant to everyone.

Rose waved to Blysse and Blind Seer. It was good to actually see someone for the second time.

The girl had a very large wolf with her. It seemed something to note, so note it Valentine did, tilting her head a little in curiosity. She didn't say anything right away, though, thinking that if the girl noticed her noticing at all, she could a little more about the girl based merely on if she said anything at all.

"Oh, I like this," Valentine noted as she stepped outside and had a seat near the fire. "Not having to go anywhere to find a fire."

[rocksthescarf.livejournal.com]

"Valentine, hello," Chuck said. "The fire was already started when I got here. Fire fairies or something, I don't know."

Jack wandered out of his cabin and toward the small crowd gathered at one of the other campfires. "Hello," he said, to no one in particular, then spotted Chuck and added, "It was your birthday party Saturday, wasn't it?"

[rocksthescarf.livejournal.com]

"It was," Chuck confirmed with a smile. He was pretty stoned right now. "Did you enjoy yourself?"

[a-demosthenes.livejournal.com]

For as much as she'd been out, Valentine realized she couldn't exactly say she knew many people yet, so it was kind of nice to see someone she could confidently say she did know. She gave him a little wave. "Hey, Jack."

"Hi," Dinah said cheerfully to yet another new guy. "I'm Dinah. Is this your cabin? Or did you wander over like me?"

[blondecanary.livejournal.com]

"Sorry I missed your party," Dinah said as she approached the fire, and handed over a wrapped present. "I heard it was fun."

[rocksthescarf.livejournal.com]

"It was. Sorry you couldn't make it," Chuck said as he reached for the present. "Awww, for me?"

Dinah got a careful little wave. She'd seen her earlier today at the salle but she hadn't wanted to interrupt.
