Summer Picnic, Main Campfire, Friday afternoon

[bugofjustice.livejournal.com]

At lunchtime, the campfire area was set up with blankets, baskets, picnic tables, food, and ant problems. The groundskeeper who brought the ants was later sent home for the rest of the day. It turned out that he didn't really like picnics.

[OOC: I suck and completely forgot about this. Sorry about the relative lateness. It's a sunny and fairly comfortable day. I MOD WEATHER! MWAHAHAHAHAHA!]

The Baskets

Pick up food for yourself and friends! All kind of picnic-y type foods are here. Whatever you'd define as "picnic-y."

Pippi grabs a plate of salami sandwiches, a few deviled eggs, some fruit (bananas are good) and hey! They have fizzy lemonade!

After Flight and Flying, Bridge heads over to the campfire and grabs a picnic basket full of sandwiches and pop soda soft drinks.

River examines the food and suddenly feels very indecisive.

Tyler walked up behind River and gave her a hug. "Want me to help you decide?," he whispered in her ear.

Re: The Baskets

River looked up at him, a confused look on her face. She nodded.

Tyler, nto sure exactly what to do, took two plates. On one, he put potato salad, a hot dog, a cookie, and a bunch of grapes. On the other, he put a hamburger, watermelon, carrot sticks, and potato chips. "Pick one."

That choice should be easier but it wasn't. River flapped her arms. "Don't know!"

Re: The Baskets

[tyler-gone.livejournal.com]

Tyler flailed, but only a little. "Want a little of everything? Or you could just get a soda for now."

He wondered if he sounded like a total asshole.

Re: The Baskets

[moonbrain-tam.livejournal.com]

River put her hands over her ears. "Just give me one of the plates?" she asked, a pleading look in her face.

Re: The Baskets

[tyler-gone.livejournal.com]

Tyler considered it. I used to make bigger choices for other people all the time.

"This one," he said, handing her the plate with the hamburger, because ... well, he liked potato salad himself. "Okay?"

Re: The Baskets

[moonbrain-tam.livejournal.com]

River nodded. She took the plate and a grin spread on her face. Slipping an arm around Tyler she hugged him.

Re: The Baskets

[tyler-gone.livejournal.com]

A little surprised, Tyler hugged River back with his free arm. "Glad I could help," he said, looking very happy.

"Sit down somewhere?" River asked, chewing on her food. She had begun to wonder why having Tyler around made her just feel like smiling a lot.

Re: The Baskets

[tyler-gone.livejournal.com]

Tyler glanced around, then led them to near a tree. He was smiling a lot too, feeling happy to be with her again. "Here's somewhere," he said. "So how was your week, Miss Tam?"

Re: The Baskets

Chuckling, River replied: "Quite enjoyable, thank you. What about yours. Mr Durden?" She took a bit out of her hamburger.

"Better once I made up with my girlfriend," Tyler said. "I got in a mud fight. Oh, and Draco Malfoy hugged me."

Re: The Baskets

[moonbrain-tam.livejournal.com]

"I missed the mud fight?" River looked seriously disappointed. "I could have thrown mud at you?"

She made a mock frown. "Draco Malfoy hugged you? Should I be jealous?"

She was in a very good mood.

Re: The Baskets

[tyler-gone.livejournal.com]

"You could have," Tyler told her, reaching out to poke her shoulder. "You'll have to get back at me later."

"And yes, be very, very jealous." He managed to look serious for almost 30 seconds, then grinned. "That making friends class. We had to try to get something we wanted out of the other person. I was trying to be funny, so I said I wanted a hug. Talked him into it, too."

Re: The Baskets

[moonbrain-tam.livejournal.com]

River gave him a mischievous look. "Is that an invitation?" She looked around, pretending to search for mud.

"I don't know Draco, but he's that blonde boy, isn't he? He couldn't come up with any objections?"

No mind reading, she told herself. No mind reading.

Re: The Baskets

[tyler-gone.livejournal.com]

"Blonde, English," Tyler agreed. "And he objected, but I argued past his objections. Besides, he talked me into making him minster of magic."

A mischievous smile tugged at his mouth. "Looking for something?"

Tim wasn't in a sandwichy type of mood, so he got a bunch of apples, a jar of peanut butter, and some root beer.

After meeting with Susan, Peter grabbed a basket with sandwiches, fruit, deviled eggs, and brownies and headed over to the blankets.

Anakin stomped over and made himelf a plate of...cookies.

Sakurazaki lets out a snort of a laugh. "Ha! Bento boxes. Nice touch." She happily grabs one. True, she's never been fond of them, but it reminded her of home. And it was the type of nostolgia that'd make anything taste better.

She grabs several other sandwichy things and snacky things, too, because, yes. Still starving.
