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.]

"That would be really cool," Tempe replied, grinning.

Tempe watched Paige drink, her eyes focused on Paige's lips. "You sound disappointed," she said. "I could track down some vodka, if you'd like." She grinned.

"Living in the cabins is okay, though I really wouldn't mind moving back into the dorms at some point," Tempe replied. "No, I haven't been pranked, thank goodness. I'm not in Stickbug or Meerkat, and it seems like those are the two cabins involved in the majority of the pranking."

Paige shakes her head, in a slightly forced way, "I'm not meant to drink, there was some...badness, both here and at my old school, but um.." she bites her lip, "you'd not let me get drunk right? And it's not like I'm upset, which was kinda the problem before." she admitted.

She grinned at the mention of the Stickbugs being pranked, "yeah the Stickbugs have had it pretty tough haven't they?" she said in a mock regretful tone, "which reminds me I have dentension tomorrow," she finished with a sigh.

"I was only kidding," Tempe replied, and then said more softly, "Of course I wouldn't let you get drunk. What kind of friend would I be if I did that?" That was assuming that they were friends, which Tempe hoped they were.

"Are you a Meerkat?" Tempe asked. "Or do you just know some Stickbugs and have some ill feelings towards them? Not that it matters, either way."

"Detention? Should I ask how you landed in there? Or was it random punishment?"

She paused, and then took the plunge. "Are you doing anything after your detention tomorrow?"

"A fun one?" Paige suggested grinning. Yes definitely friends, cos Paige had been away a while, and was making the effort to actually make friends now.

She shook her head to the second question, "I, am a noble squirrel," she replied striking a 'noble' pose, "but no I have no problem with the Stickbugs, I'm not even sure who's in that cabin actually."

"Did you hear about the disappearing underwear?" she asked lowering her voice and leaning in slightly, "it had something to do with that, and the principal's office."

"I'm free after yeah, pretty much free all the time actually, do you want to do something?" she asked more than willing to do whatever she suggested.

"Fun, maybe, but completely irresponsible," Tempe replied, grinning. "I like to protect my friends from the bad stuff." Not that she'd had that many friends up to now...

"A noble squirrel! My favorite!" Tempe replied, laughing. "I'm just a lowly Pangolin. Which I'm not even sure what kind of animal that is."

"I think I heard something about that on the radio," Tempe said, lowering her tone to match Paige's. "Did you steal underwear? Or have it stolen?"

"Would you like to go out for coffee or something?" Tempe asked, hopefully, shuffling from foot to foot nervously.

Of course Paige couldn't be protected from the bad stuff, the protecting was her job, or it would be when she left here, the sentiment was apprecaited though and she smiled back at Tempe.

"Are you sure Pangolin even is an animal, I think maybe they ran out and just made something up." she said.

"And um, well since we're being honest, I helped steal it," she said lowering her voice again since so far the squirrels hadn't been sprung yet.

"But sure coffee sounds good, pretty much always, I think detention gets out at 5, I could meet you in the perk?" she suggested taking another sip of the drink and feeling glad she'd approached the girl, she was sweet and friendly and not freaking out about her being a witch bespite her being from somewhere without magic.

Tempe smiled back.

"You know, you might be right. Maybe they just ran out of noble, interesting animals, and made up a particularly exotic sounding one. Which is bad, because I keep thinking 'penguin' whenever someone says 'pangolin'."

Tempe snickered. "I'm sure they deserved it. And even if they didn't, it's still hilarious."

"Sure, I'll meet you there."

Tempe smiled. She was glad Paige had approached her. She was funny and beautiful, and incredibly sweet.

"Maybe it's part penguin, part lion," she suggested trying not to laugh, "bred in a lab obviously,"

"I was just following orders really, but yeah it was pretty fun."

"So 5pm in the perk, just keep an eye out for the blue lights," she said smiling. "it's a date."

"I should probably go mingle now, I've been kinda hiding away in my bunk most of the week," she admitted, "I'll see you tomorrow though."

((and I have to go to bed cos I'm in the UK, which is really why she's fleeing, fun playing with you))

Staring after her, Tempe smiled. And damn, was she ever excited about tomorrow.

And no, that figure you see jumping up and down excitedly squealing isn't Tempe. You must be seeing things.
