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

fh_weather is reporting. Yes, I'm modding the weather. Admin privilege.]

Paige nodded slowly, possibly looking looking a little worried, it sounded like Willow had led a life to similar to the one she was yet to lead.

"Yeah I guess so," she said a little blankly, "Must be pretty tough right? You must be a pretty talented witch to deal with all that."

"I'm still learning," Willow admitted. "I can soul a vampire and do a disinvitation spell okay. And I'm good with a floating pencil. But everything else I'm still ironing out the kinks of. Sometimes it works, othertimes - " she glanced around " - there's unexpected side effects."

Paige nodded in understanding, "yeah backfiring spell's are a bitch huh?" she said with a sigh, "especially if you don't really think about what could happen. It's one of the reasons I don't really cast spells alone anymore, although at least I know where I went now, personal gain, big no no!"

"It is?" Willow said, looking worried. "But what if you've got really good intentions?"

Paige bit her lip realising she'd something wrong, "Um it's probably just like that in my world, magic's different everywhere I think, I mean some people have to use wands." she said quickly hoping make her feel better.

"And I'm sure intentions are important, if you're helping someone else as well as your self, it's not really personal gain right?"

"Okay, good," Willow relaxed. "That's the sort of thing I meant anyway. I mean why be witchy if you can't help people?"

Paige nodded a little over eagerly, "exactly, it's the good thing about it, well that and never being late for class, although that's probably just me, unless you can orb too?" she said forgetting it was one of her whitelighter powers.

"Orb?" Willow asked.

Paige face palmed, whitelighter power, whitelighter power!

"It's um a kinda method of teleporting I guess, I can move myself and others somewhere else pretty much instantly, like I said handy if you're running late," she said with smile, "it's one of my powers."

"Oh cool!" Willow said. "I can't do that. Telekinsesis a little, but not teleportation. Though? Now? A spell for me to try researching."

Paige grinned, "me too, the telekinesis I mean, but that's connected to my orbing I think, I inherited it from from my father. But if you ever want a hand researching stuff I'm not too bad with the book stuff, or if you ever want someone to practise with." she offered realising she'd just admitted she liked researching things, which she did, because she realised now how important it was, the thing with Angel had taught her that.

"I love research too!" Willow said. Then, as though this was something to brag about, added, "I got to spent all last weekend helping Giles with his books."

Yeah she wasn't that into research!

"Sounds more productive than what I got up to, which was pretty much nothing. Did you find anything interesting?" she asked genuinely interested.

"Sadly no, he hid all the good stuff," Willow pouted. "Still, it was sort of like being in a library. I got to organize."

Paige frowned a little at the part about hiding stuff. "That's no good is it? The library here probably has some pretty harmless magic books to look at, I bet we'd need permission to look at the cool stuff." she said clearly a little annoyed by that.

"Special Collections," Willow confirmed. "You need a pass. Plus you have to deal with a genie who's really rude."

Paige raised an eyebrow, "a genie, huh, that's a new one on me." she admitted.

((and I must flee to bed, fade?))

"Me too," Willow agreed.

[NP! Night!]
