Camping

[daringyoungman]

Dick and Cat wanted to go camping. Dick asked Bonnie. Dick asked around, then somehow the word got out and it was a CAMPING TRIP.

Which he's okay with, really. He doesn't get much chance to hang around with other kids.

They pick a spot a good distance from the bar, near enough to the lake that washing and swimming can happen, not so close to the forest that demon bunnies are a severe threat, and set about pitching a camp for the weekend, or whenever they all get bored...

"I'm not sure," Autor says, rubbing her shoulder. He turns his skewer again to brown the opposite side of his marshmallow. "I know that the Monster Raven came out as well, as did the Prince. So there were at least three characters running around."

"Wouldn't someone notice if a monster raven were around?"

"They should have," Autor says, pulling his marshmallow back toasted golden brown. "But he was sealed away, so he was present but not really. I wonder if someone unsealed him and defeated him to end the Story?"

"You'll find it in your memories, if that's what happened," Rae nods. It sounds likely to her, even if she's not terribly familiar with the story and how stories might enter reality.

"So I will," Autor says, squeezing her shoulder before setting his marshmallow on a graham cracker. "I just need to be patient, that's all. And thank you for listening, Rae."

"You're welcome," she smiles at him. "Good job on that marshmallow, by the way. Looks like it should be about perfect."

"Thanks!" Autor says, grinning. He adds chocolate before smushing the s'more together with another graham cracker. "It only took me six tries to get it right."

"Only six isn't bad," she chuckles, reaching into the other bag of marshmallows to fetch herself another.

"What are you talking about? It's terrible," Autor says, laughing softly as he scoops her up into another hug. "I ate all the burned ones, though. Thanks for teaching me how to get it right."

Rae laughs and hugs him back. "You're very welcome."
