Rumor Gal Campfire; Thursday Evening

While he was getting pretty damn tired of the whole cabin thing, Chuck would have been stupid not to take advantage of an already lit fire and the new bag of marshmallows he found in the kitchen. He wasn't quite sure who kept buying the marshmallows but Zefron bless them.

Joint in his left hand, Chuck tried his hand at trying to flick marshmallows in the air with his right and catching them in his mouth. Turns out he had a talent for it.

[Mmm my hangover is finally subsiding. Ooooopen, of course]

"No, thank goodness," Claire said. "Then again, it's only been a couple months."

"I've been here a year. I hope you have as quiet a year as I have." Well, quiet apart from the AU children and turning into an evil prince and defending his family from assassins. He paused. "Maybe more quiet," he added.

"I didn't think anything was quiet around here," Claire said.

"You'd be surprised," Edmund replied. "Fandom has its insanities, but in between those it's surprisingly dull." Only if you don't get off your backside and find your own fun, Ed.

Claire nodded. "I've found it pretty fun so far. Seems like there's always something interesting going on."

"I suppose it depends on what circles you run with," Edmund mused.

"Makes sense," she agreed. "I've met a lot of people. Do you know Dinah Lance? She's my roommmate."

"I don't think I've had the pleasure," he admitted, "though we may have had a class together. You're seeing me at my most social. I haven't really mingled a lot since arriving here."

[identity profile] wantstocheer.livejournal.com 2009-07-24 01:24 am (UTC)(link)
"How come?" Claire asked. "Everyone here seems really nice."

"I'm not a big people person," came the glib reply. Except for the part where he was a diplomat and leader and could talk to people just fine. "I'm not really used to dealing with people my own age," he added a little more seriously.

"Well, I think we need to get you out more," she decided with a grin.

"I think I just had a chill go down my back when you said that," Edmund said dryly, but he was smiling. "What would that entail?"

"Hmmm, we'll be going back to the dorms soon," Claire said. "So I guess common rooms would be a good start. Maybe the Boardwalk. Or, ooh, I haven't checked out the bowling alley yet."

[identity profile] once-a-traitor.livejournal.com 2009-07-24 01:48 am (UTC)(link)
"I'll try to attend," he said in a non-committal way. Oh yes, he was trying to get out of it now.

"We can schedule it around you," she told him.

Like it would be that easy. After all, she not only knew where he lived, but had an in.

[identity profile] once-a-traitor.livejournal.com 2009-07-24 01:55 am (UTC)(link)
"My schedule is annoyingly open," he admitted begrudgingly.

[identity profile] wantstocheer.livejournal.com 2009-07-24 01:57 am (UTC)(link)
Claire grinned. "See? We'll have all kinds of fun!"

[identity profile] once-a-traitor.livejournal.com 2009-07-24 02:28 am (UTC)(link)
"I hope you won't take offence if I reserve judgement on that until after the fact."

[identity profile] wantstocheer.livejournal.com 2009-07-24 11:56 am (UTC)(link)
"You don't trust me?" she teased.

[identity profile] once-a-traitor.livejournal.com 2009-07-24 12:15 pm (UTC)(link)
"I wouldn't go that far. Let's settle for cautiously optimistic."

[identity profile] wantstocheer.livejournal.com 2009-07-24 12:16 pm (UTC)(link)
Claire grinned. "I'll take it. Are you seeing anyone? Maybe we could make it a double date."

[identity profile] once-a-traitor.livejournal.com 2009-07-24 12:34 pm (UTC)(link)
"Er, no," Edmund said awkwardly. "There's no one like that, though thank you for the kind offer."

[identity profile] wantstocheer.livejournal.com 2009-07-24 12:35 pm (UTC)(link)
Claire nodded. "Well, then we'll just get a group together."

"To do...bowling," Edmund tried to sound upbeat. He was digging himself a deeper hole. Not that it wasn't a good thing, it just so happened to be something he'd avoided for over a year.

[identity profile] wantstocheer.livejournal.com 2009-07-24 12:42 pm (UTC)(link)
"Unless you don't like bowling," Claire said. "We can find something else fun to do that isn't you sitting around your dorm room."

Edmund clearly should not have told a cheerleader that he spent a year being anti-social.
