A Camping We Will Go....
Who: Jimmy Darling (anexcitableboy) and Wrath (garbagechild).
Where: Mt. Mortar area
When: July 30
Summary: Jimmy and Wrath are camping and looking for fire Pokemon.
Rating: PG-13, some language probably.
Log:
[It's been a long time since Jimmy's done any real camping. He's always sort of camped, living his life in a caravan, but it's not the same as sleeping under the stars. He's got a tarp up and a fire going and a pot over it, fixing up dinner. This was a nice idea, going on a little trip with Wrath. Even if the weather hasn't been exactly the best.]
[This planet's weird as hell, but he's gotta admit, it's treating him pretty well. He misses Eve, and...well, Maggie if he's being honest. But he's got a house and a job and good friends who don't give a shit about his hands. He's not even wearing his gloves, and he leans back and fishes his cigarettes out of his pocket as the smell of stew begins wafting up from the pot. Lenore and Omi are at his feet, the Cubone already beginning to get restless now that the moon's coming up.]
So tomorrow we head in and try and get ourselves some fire guys!

8/01
[So instead of constantly shaking Jimmy awake like he might have when he'd first come to Johto, Wrath instead waits very patiently for him to wake up, not making a single peep! He's learned to be considerate, too.]
[... On the other hand the first thing Jimmy will probably be aware of when he does return to the land of consciousness is a noticeable weight sitting on top of him-- and if he happened to have fallen asleep on his back, the first thing he sees when he opens his own eyes will be a pair of blue ones staring RIGHT AT HIM.]
[If he fell asleep on his stomach or side, well, then he'll just have to use his context clues to figure out that the kid who had been in his own sleeping bag at the beginning of the night is now on top of him, legs and arms tucked neatly under him like a loafing cat.
Good morning!!
[... Did... did he sleep at ALL?]
Re: 8/01
[Jimmy blinks blearily, rubbing at his eyes with the back of his hand.]
I think your sleeping bag's probably more comfortable than I am.
[Wrath was on top of him. Wrath had likely slept on top of him. Which Jimmy didn't mind, but it's the kind of thing a guy likes some warning for. How long has the kid been awake? Kids barely sleep when they're excited, Jimmy knows that much. Geeze, the kid's heavier than he looks.]
G'morning. What time's it?
no subject
That's okay. You're warm.
[SOUND LOGIC.]
[He shrugs his shoulders a little.]
I don't know, but I saw the sun.
no subject
[He ruffles Wrath's hair, a motion that's becoming unconscious and habitual. He's really not in that much of a hurry to be up and about.]
Gotta have a big breakfast for a big day.
no subject
I like breakfast! Breakfast is my favorite!
Can we have more hot dogs like we did last night?
Or-- or or or-- did you bring any crunchy fruit circles? Those are the BEST breakfast!
no subject
[He pauses a moment, contemplating.]
And I'll do some hot dogs, too. You can wrap a pancake around one like a bun, it'll be like a sausage wrap.
no subject
[Wrath has no idea what a thur-mus is, but 'blue' is a thing that he knows. And he's seen Squirtles before, too. So he scampers cheerfully over to Jimmy's pack and fishes out the thermos.]
I got it!
no subject
[Jimmy slowly gets himself up. It's chilly in the morning, despite being summer. He gets the fire going quick and takes the thermos from Wrath.]
Now I want you to find me a good flat rock we can put the fry pan on.
[He wants the kid to help out as much as possible. Start learning how to do things.]
no subject
[He skids to a stop next to Jimmy and explains, breathlessly--]
I couldn't pick.
no subject
[Jimmy laughs and shakes his head as Wrath shows off his haul.]
Hey, we had a bigger fire pit, we'd have an outdoor three burner.
[He picks one of the rocks and arranges it over the fire, surprisingly deft with his hooked, fused fingers. The fire's starting to warm him up.]
What shapes you want?
no subject
A circle!
[... He likes round things.]
no subject
Circles I happen to be aces at!
[He gets the pan all prepped and pours in a couple of circles of batter. This is nice. It's normal. Old normal and new normal.]
Look at that, thing of beauty right there. You like'em thin or fat? Thin's best if you wanna wrap'em around a hot dog.
no subject
[He's excited to try pretty much anything Jimmy recommends at this point. He watches the batter bubble and sizzle in the pan, drumming his fingers on the ground.]
When are they ready to eat?
Are they ready now?
