The Deck | Afternoon | Saturday | July 10

The clouds were easing the heat a bit and, without the sun hanging high in the sky, Bod figured that spending some time outside wouldn't give way to an inevitable sunburn. He thought about walking into town but eventually decided that that could wait till later.

Instead, he veered off and clambered onto the deck, sliding into one of the empty loungers and actually choosing to be lazy for once. Usually, laziness was a side effect of having nothing to do or trying to avoid something else but today, he just wanted to relax. He found himself caught up in the movements of the clouds, dark and opaque as they were. He wondered what the sky looked like behind them, if the peeks of blue would stay long and where those clouds would go after moving off.

It wasn't heavy contemplation but he was enthralled by it anyway.

[Deck is open. I like clouds.]

And then there was Dandelion shuffling onto the deck carrying a large bag of Doritos and carrying a large Grape Judas. She too flopped down on a lounge chair and let out a sigh of contentment before pointing at the sky.

"Look! That one looks like a jet!" she said pointing at... well a jet.

"Ooo! Yeah! It moves like one too!" Dandelion said looking impressed with the "jet". She then offered the bag of Doritos to Bod. "Salty snack?"

"Were you a outcast prince from another planet?" Dandelion asked. "You weren't from Norway, were you?"

"Nah, my drummer was an outcast alien princess," Dandelion said with a shake of her head. "I just sing. Are you an outcast from England?"

She was glad to hear he was from England. That meant he wasn't a viking.

She paused for a second to point at a cloud. "Look! An exploded appendix!"

"You look lazy," Kitty said, oh so observantly, finding an empty seat to flip into.

"And here I thought they were for like hanging out and being glad there's nothing school-related happening," she teased. "But I guess you can do that lazily."

"That's very zen of you," Dandelion said as she popped a dorito in her mouth.

It's pretty obvious that Dandelion has no idea what Zen is.

"What did you do before coming here?"

"Multitasker. I have the first two things covered, now I need to work on the lazy part. Any advice?" Of course she looked plenty lazy, all sprawled out in a lounger. Wouldn't stop her from asking.

"Just how to be lazy," she replied, waving a hand vaguely.

Kitty thought this over, and realized she really was feeling lazy both physically and mentally. "Wow, I have a hidden talent. Thank you for helping me to realize this."

Apparently Kitty was in a silly mood today.

"Wait," Kitty said, sitting up a bit. "Does productivity and learning ruin the lazy hanging out thing?"

[identity profile] notavalleygirl.livejournal.com 2010-07-10 06:49 pm (UTC)(link)
"But we'll know," she said knowingly. Yep, silly mood.

"That might work. Because like, if I'm really lazy, I'm not going to put up a fight, right?" she reasoned.
