Luau, The Main Campfire, Friday evening

The main campfire had been turned into a tropical paradise... without the tropics. There were leis and grass skirts to wear, tropical music playing, a buffet table, and the infamous Limbo Stick of Destiny, an artifact brought back to America from World War II. Noody knows what happens when a person wins a limbo competition involving the Limbo Stick of Destiny, but several experts on the subject suggest that "absolutely nothing happens except maybe you win a little trophy."

It was party time at the Fandom High Summer Camp.

[OOC: OCD is up. Yes, there is pig, poi, and sometimes the band will switch from generic tropical music to 60's beach movie music, or maybe reggae, or Raffi. They're unpredictable like that.

The luau takes place during a long break in the rain that [livejournal.com profile] fh_weather is reporting. Yes, I'm modding the weather. Admin privilege.]

"Someone's got to play the tourist," he said with a grin and a shrug. He sat down beside her. "Though you might be able to talk me into a flowered shirt and bermuda shorts. But only in private."

Dawn blinked at that mental image. "That would be very...colorful."

"But really? You'd do something that dorky if I asked you to?" She tried not to squee, but it was really, really hard.

"Yeah," he said. "No pictures though," he added, reaching over and tugging gently on one of her pigtails.

"No pictures," she raised her hand, then grinned at him. "If you're gonna pull those all night, I'm gonna have to find a swing to push you off of."

Dean grinned and gave the pigtail another tug. "We'll have to go for a walk later and see if we can find one."

"I was warned about going off in the dark with strange boys. Of course, none of those people are here..."

"And what they don't know won't hurt me?" Dean asked with a smirk.

"Nope. Or involve me having to give up dating. Again." Dawn rolled her eyes.

"Making you give up dating would certainly be a crime."

"Could you write a letter to my sister and Giles saying that, please?" Dawn looked up at him. "Because they're really overprotective in a non-cute way."

"Sure. But somehow, I don't think I'd be considered an unbiased opinion, considering," Dean pointed out.

"Maybe not," she frowned. "Must work on that."

"Well we've been dating for a couple of weeks now and nothing's bad's happened. That has to give you some ammo."

"Maybe? You have no idea how overprotective these people can be." Dawn made a face. "I wonder if there's a protective rune against that."

Re: Main campfire

Dean chuckled. "A protective rune against being too protected? Like an anti protective rune?"

"Yes," she said, delighted that he got it. "That's it exactly!"

"You've got a really twisty mind," Dean said admiringly.

"Yes! That's me, old pretzel brain." She beamed, then hoped that didn't be come her new nickname. "Er, that's a good thing, right? And please forget I said that last part?"

"It's a very good thing. I like trying to guess what you might say next." He smiled wryly. "And being wrong at least half the time. Keeps me on my toes."

"You like being wrong?" Dawn couldn't help staring at him.

"I like that you surprise me," Dean corrected.

"That's good by the way," he told her. "It means you're interesting, complex, deep...." Each descriptive word was accompanied with a gentle tug on a pig tail. "Okay yeah, maybe, these are too much of a temptation."

Re: Main campfire

[identity profile] lilpunkinbelly.livejournal.com 2006-06-03 12:43 am (UTC)(link)
"Stop," she swatted his hand away, amused, "it could just mean I'm a space case. And you're just as interesting--you just don't have hair to pull."

Dean looked at her for a moment, then leaned over and offered his hair, short as it was, to her.
