Summary: WOO HOO CAMPING-TRIP-DINO-HUNT-VACATION-DATE-EXTRAVAGANZA!
Rating: uhh...PG for possible language?
Log:
[To say that John was "looking forward" to his second date with Rose would be a gross understatement. He had barely been able to sleep the night before they left and ended up knocking on Rose's door at five in the morning because he'd finally given up on the notion of sleep entirely. Plus, weren't you supposed to leave early for camping trips?]
[Unsurprisingly, Rose hadn't expected him that early. She'd given him a very bleary look, stepped back into her room to give her clock a bleary look and then asked "...are we leaving 'lready?"]
[Even less surprisingly...she'd fallen right back asleep the minute they had both clambered inside Elliot and gone on their way. But that was okay. Because she had fallen asleep on John's shoulder and he had absolutely no qualms with that at all.]
[And then a few hours later, his excitement wore off and he too fell asleep. Wow, their trip was off to a great start already!]
[Elliot wasn't the fastest pokemon but fortunately, being a ghost, he didn't really need a lot of sleep. So their four day trip ended up taking only two. Once inside the forest, Elliot went back inside his ball for some much needed rest while the two kids shouldered their packs and began walking through the forest, hand-in-hand.]
[Surely this was going to be the best camping-trip-dino-hunt-vacation-date-extravaganza ever!Also possibly the first ever, because seriously, who besides John would come up with something as crazy as this?]

Nothing's wrong, John. Absolutely nothing.
no subject
[Biiig smile~]
So do you want to go finish setting up the tent? There's still two more things we need to do.
no subject
no subject
And I need to put the stakes in too. You never know when random gale force winds will blow through and I would rather not be taken along for the ride in a dome tent. I imagine that might be painful.

[He gives her a quick hug before rummaging through the tent bag, from which he pulls out four small metal stakes and a mini-hammer. He was made for this job, Rose. You have no idea. He then moves around to the back of the tent, and a few moments later there's the clinking sound of metal against metal.]
no subject
...Just plain blue, John? Really? Rose is going to have to fix that. Either way, it's rolled out and a pillow is put at the top of it. Hers (A pink, skitty themed one) is rolled out right beside it, again a pillow placed at the top. And then? Over the top a blanket is laid. Just to make sure they stay warm.]]
no subject
[John's still busily hammering away at the stakes, the third one to be precise, in the front right corner. And Casey...well Casey wants to help too. So she's pulling the backpacks into the tent. Is she a good girl, Rose? Is she helping? Oh please say she's helping. :<]
no subject
But yes, Casey. She turns around and just gives her a warm smile, pointing to a corner of the tent.]]
Thank you Casey! You can set those over there. Are you excited for camping?
[[You'll never guess what she has for you in her bag, Casey.]]
no subject
[Yes Rose, she is very excited. And...you have something for her in your bag? LE GASP. She will never guess.]
no subject
She hands the small pile to her so she is free to make her bed as she pleases.]]
Here you go Casey.
no subject
[And once she's done with that (rather tight) hug, she's going to drag the pillow and blankets over to the last free corner of the tent and make something that resembles a blanket nest.]
[Attracted by the borderline screech from his
bby gurlloving daughterLopunny, John appears in the tent opening, looking a little concerned.]Is everything oka-- oh. [False alarm, nothing is wrong. Casey was just shrieking with excitement. Business as usual, carry on but oh goodness those sleeping bags are rather close. He's just going to hover awkwardly in front of the tent. What's he supposed to be doing again? The stakes are all in...what now?]
no subject
[[Now it's Rose's turn to look expectant. She did good, right?]]

Or aren't quite sleepy yet.
no subject
[This is much better!]
Mmm...well I'm not quite sleepy yet but I wouldn't object to changing. Hold on, let me go get my pajamas and I'll get out so you can change. [He moves over to his bag and pull his pajamas out and then makes for the entrance, unzipping it halfway so that he can slide out. Yes...he fully intends to go change in the bushes or something.]
no subject
And once she is in her tentacool print camisole and pink shorts to match, she slips into her sleeping bag to at least sit in the warmth, waiting for him to return.
She has an inkling of an idea of what they could do...]]
no subject
[There's a small 'ouch!' from outside as John returns. Guess who forgot to put his shoes back on and just stepped on a rock? He appears a moment later, clad in dark purple Haunter-print pajama pants and a black sleeveless shirt. After once again zipping the door, he crawls over to his sleeping bad and begins rubbing his sock-clad heel once he sits down.]
Note to self...be sure to put shoes on before walking around in the forest from now on.
no subject
[[Glancing at his foot, she pulls her pillow into her lap and hugs on to it.]]
And if you are, I have an idea of what we can do.
no subject
no subject
[[Do you see this gleam in her eyes, John? You may want to change your mind.]]
Well, if we are to have a proper camping trip, we are missing something.
Ghost stories.
no subject
Ooo, you're right! That we cert-- ack, Casey! [At that moment, Casey decides to interrupt by nudging her head against John's arm. And then giving him a big
puppybunny-eyed look. In her arms, she's holding a small brush.] Oh! Right. Here. [He scoots back a little and pats the space in front of him on his sleeping bag, taking the brush from her. Once she's settled herself in front of him, he takes one of her ears and sets it in his lap, brushing the curly beige fur before continuing. Like that whole interruption wasn't even a thing. Nope.][Sorry Rose, but this is kind of their nightly routine.]
We certainly are missing that. Did you have one in mind then?
no subject
I have a few I could tell, if you would be interested. And, appropriately enough, they are Pokemon themed.
no subject
Sounds good to me! Let's hear them then.
