Lightning Bug Campfire, Thursday Evening

[ihavenocodename.livejournal.com]

Now that she had a unknowing and creepy crush on her son teacher to help with her powers, Jean was having a bit of a thoughtful evening. She should call Scott the Institute and see how everyone was doing. And... not mention Bobby. At all.

Or the fact that his roommate was a cat. Even though Chuck assured her it was completely normal here.

Yeah, the phone call was on hold as she poked at the fire and tried to think of what to say to them without sounding crazy.

[[Open like a campfire!]]

Bobby had no idea if cats actually needed things like walks. Or if roommates needed walks. Regardless, he was heading out of his cabin with Kate when he happened to glance over next door and see-

"Jean!"

"Bobby!" Jean perked up seeing him and... the cat roommate. Still so, so weird.

[longislandiceme]

"I so didn't even know you were next door," Bobby admitted. If he *had* known, he would've come bugged her earlier.

Jean shook her head and patted the seat next to her. "You're not allowed in a girl cabin, Bobby."

Oh, she knew what he wanted to do. And there would be no frozen underwear, thank you.

"Hey dude," Hurley said, way too eager to make friends with a guy after last night's realisation. "What's up?"

[longislandiceme]

"Hey," Bobby waved to the guy he'd seen in class the other day. "Not much. My roommate's still a cat, that's still weird."

[likes-chicken.livejournal.com]

"Heh, yeah," Hurley said. "That's actually kinda... common here."

It wasn't quite Hurley's campfire, but that didn't stop him from sitting down with his bag o s'more stuff.

"Hey people," Hurley said.

[ihavenocodename.livejournal.com]

"Oh!" Jean sat up at a new person being there. "Hi, I'm Jean."

[likes-chicken.livejournal.com]

"I'm Hurley," he said, with a little wave. "Okay if I sit here? I totally share."

Adam happened to be out for a walk that took his past the cabins, when he spotted people by the campfire. Figuring he should be social, he made his way over.

"Hey," he said, adding a wave to his greeting.

[ihavenocodename.livejournal.com]

"Hi!" Jean was far too bippy with new people. "Would you like some s'mores?"

[im-afrog.livejournal.com]

"Sure, thanks," Adam grinned, taking a seat. He could never turn down s'mores. "I'm Adam, by the way."

Any day that began with a teacher attacking Zayne with a sword had to end with social behavior. It wasn't a rule, necessarily, but it was a strong guideline.

And so Zayne made his way across the campgrounds to the Lightning Bug campfire and said, "Good evening, everyone."

[ihavenocodename.livejournal.com]

"Hello!" There... certainly were a lot of boys there for a girls' cabin.

[cataclysmicluck.livejournal.com]

"I don't think I've seen you around before. Are you new, or do I just need to get out more?" Zayne asked.

[longislandiceme]

"Zayne, hey," Bobby greeted. "You'd only rate this a good evening? Not a great one?"

[cataclysmicluck.livejournal.com]

"I don't want to sound like I'm bragging just in case anyone had a bad day," Zayne joked. Even though it actually sounded kind of reasonable, the smile should have given it away.

[likes-chicken.livejournal.com]

"Hey dude," Hurley said, waving at Zayne. "How you doing?"

[cataclysmicluck.livejournal.com]

"Pretty good, for a day where I had a sword fight with a teacher," Zayne said. "You seem to be in a better mood than you were the last time we talked."

Rose had thought she was going to adore her four day weekend. Instead by the end of th first day, she was going insane. So she - with the Worf kitten who was hissing at the pretty blue bow around his neck - wandered over to the lit campfire.

"Hey, everyone," she said, realising that for once she knew eveyone except the other girl there.

[ihavenocodename.livejournal.com]

Oh! Another kitten! ...it may be best to let her think the kitten was indeed a kitten for now.

"Hello!"

[guardianborn.livejournal.com]

Yes, a kitten instead of an enraged Klingon warrior might be a good idea.

"I'm kinda hoping you're new, and I just haven't gone to school with you for six weeks. I'm Rose Hathaway."

[longislandiceme]

"Hey Rose," Bobby said with a grin. Kate glanced over at the kitten and shot Bobby a look that very clearly said he'd better not be thinking of putting any bows on her, thank you.

[guardianborn.livejournal.com]

"Bobby!" Rose said with a grin. "How are you?"

Worf on the other hand growled at the other cat.
