Wormhole X-Treme Campfire [Thursday Morning]

[weetinyreese.livejournal.com]

Sleep-singing seemed to work up an appetite. Kyle, always knowing where the food was, managed to put together the makings of a big breakfast. If it was a breakfast food and cookable, chances were he had it. And if not? Well, he was happy to make bacon and eggs for anyone who stopped by. Or a sausage and egg burrito. There was salsa around here somewhere.

Kyle started working on the fire and found himself humming quietly.

Gwen followed her nose in the direction of the fire. "Morning," she grinned.

"Hey," Kyle greeted. "Pull up a log or a chair or whatever you feel like sitting on. Fire's not hot enough yet, but I'm making breakfast if you're interested."

[ihaveniceteeth.livejournal.com]

"I would be very interested," Gwen replied. "I'm Gwen by the way, Gwen Cooper."

"Any relation to George?" he asked, poking at the fire. The dream he'd had had left him in a sour mood, but the light from the fire and the thought of freshly cooked food was cheering him up. "Kyle Reese," he added by way of introduction.

"Not that I'm aware of," Gwen said, since in Fandom you never really could be sure. "Nice to meet you Kyle."

[weetinyreese.livejournal.com]

"Yeah, you too. Nice to meet you I mean. Which one of these are you from?" He waved his hand around at the cabins.

Gwen nodded in the direction of Leery's River. "That one over there. They don't usually do the segregation thing though."

"Dude, awesome," Hurley said. He sat down at the fire and warmed his hands. "What's up, man?"

[weetinyreese.livejournal.com]

"I think I heard about that. All girls, huh?" He started to sing. And he'd been doing so well!

"Some boys take a beautiful girl
And hide her away from the rest of the world
You want to be the one to walk in the sun
Oh girls they want to have fun
Oh girls just want to have

That's all they really waaaant
Some fuuuuun
When the working day is done
Girls - they want to have fun
Oh girls just want to have fun,
They want to have fun,
They want to have fun..."

He looked very uncomfortable all of a sudden. So it wasn't only a sleep-singing thing.

"Breakfast, once I get this going to the right temperature," Kyle replied. And not any weird singing at all, really. "You want some?"

[ihaveniceteeth.livejournal.com]

Gwen raised her eyebrows slightly. "That usually doesn't happen either." Well, not without copious amounts of alcohol being involved.

"That's the second time this morning. Please tell me I didn't pick up some weird ancient disease." 9 years ago is not ancient, Kyle.

"Hey, if you're offering, I'm eating," Hurley said. "You getting settled in all okay and stuff?"

[ihaveniceteeth.livejournal.com]

"No, singing is usually not caused by a disease. At least on this planet."

[weetinyreese.livejournal.com]

"Yeah, I'm doing okay," he nodded. "I got a job and stopped eating so much sugar that my stomach hurt. After that, it's been smooth sailing." He contemplated whether to add the next part, but in the end he decided to go ahead. "Except I keep singing today. I don't even know what I'm singing." He wasn't doing too bad for a guy who'd never heard music before a few months ago.

Kyle breathed a sigh of relief. "Good. I wasn't sure how I was going to explain that one to my CO. 'Sorry Connor, I can't stop singing and it's spread to the rest of the Resistance. Maybe if we send the really bad singers in Skynet will surrender and beg us to make it stop.'"

[ihaveniceteeth.livejournal.com]

"Skynet?" Gwen asked. "What's that when it's not at home?"

George was rubbing his eyes as he stumbled out of the cabin.

"Were ye just singin', Kyle?" he asked.

It had to have been a dream.

"Dude, what?" Hurley said, laughing. "Wait... I shouldn't laugh. I'll end up singing, too."

Jack kept singing something under his breath about pirate skulls and bones. If he wasn't hungry, he would lie down until it went away.

"Good morning, Kyle," he said, resiting the uncomfortable urge to trill as he took a seat near the fire. "You're cooking?"

[weetinyreese.livejournal.com]

"You will?" Kyle asked hopefully. "I'm kind of hoping it's not just me."

[likes-chicken.livejournal.com]

"Hey, uhhh," Hurley racked his brain. "I don't think we've met, actually."

[weetinyreese.livejournal.com]

"I don't know why it's happening!" Kyle protested. "I think I'm sick, but Gwen - who's a Cooper but not related to you so she says - says you don't get singing viruses."

[weetinyreese.livejournal.com]

"I'm cooking," Kyle replied with a firm nod. "Seemed like a good way to start the day. I don't mind sharing if you don't mind waiting."

"Right, it hasn't destroyed the world here yet," Kyle mockingly reminded himself. It was hard to remember at times that no one else had even heard of Skynet yet. "Skynet's an advanced computer hooked up to the defense network. Advanced artificial intelligence who decided it'd be a fun game to kill all the humans and nuke the world. I don't know whether it dislikes bad singing or not. I made that part up."
