Main Campfire - Wednesday Morning

[wantstocheer.livejournal.com]

It was too nice a day to not take advantage of before being cooped up at work all afternoon and evening, Claire decided. Which was why she was out at the main campfire early with breakfast sausages and a huge iron skillet she found that would cook eggs over an open fire.

She was in an excellent mood, now that her boyfriend was no longer puppy-shaped. They had handwavily spent the previous evening snuggling and watching movies.

For now her excellent mood translated into making breakfast for anyone who happened to stop by.



[Open campfire! I know I'm not the only one stuck at work and not off on vacation.]

That made him curious.

"Why wouldn't you?"

"I dunno. It seems like it would be a waste of money if I have no idea what I want to study," she said.

"If I had the chance," he said, his voice especially careful, "I would certainly never turn down more education. And from what I understand, there is time to decide that while you're there."

Claire nodded. "That's true. But I have time before I have to worry about that."

[new-to-liirness.livejournal.com]

"Certainly."

It was just something he felt strongly about and, trying to keep his promise to Amber, he was actually voicing his thoughts more.

"We both do, really."

He pulled the sausage back.

"I should have brought out some bread for us both."

"I didn't even think about bread," Claire said apologetically, sliding his eggs on a plate. "I haven't mastered toast over a campfire."

[new-to-liirness.livejournal.com]

He shook his head. No apology necessary.

"It's fine. The plate works just as well."

He took it from her happily before sliding the sausage off.

Claire grinned and decided to roast another sausage for herself.

"What time do you have to be at work?"

He didn't have a watch but he gave a look up at the sky.

"In something like another half an hour. If I had to walk, I would need to leave now, but as I'm flying, I have some more time to sit."
