we got off on an exit 'cause we couldn't read the map so great
Who: Lion House Crew + Lavellan
When: Backdated to before Lavellan Wrecked The Ingress
Where: An Unpopulated area of Region 3
What: Local teens and their adults who need adults get lost in the woods with an elf who should know better.
Warnings: None none
((Info: basically a big group tag-at-your-leisure kind of thing. Make your own adventure, poke other people, make space s'mores, let's just have a camping trip before everything goes wrong. I threw up some prompts but go ahead and make your own if you want!))
Getting There
The crew takes the EN-line as far as it will go. After that, they're walking, carrying their supplies. By decree of their "illustrious" leader. Along the way, they'll meet Lavellan and head out into the trees of Region 3. It's a bit of a hike, because the trees are also mostly houses. But after a while, they'll come to a fairly open place in the middle of Nowhere. Have fun hiking.
Setting Up Camp
Whoever brought the tent(s) gets to set them up. That, and decide who sleeps where. It's probably fairly uneventful, but Lavellan may be overseeing here, along with anyone who's actually been camping. Please don't start a fight over where you're sleeping, guys. Please. Also someone please start the fire.
Campfire Shenanigans
There's nothing like food cooked over a campfire. That's what started all of this. Dinner/Breakfast/Etc has to be prepared and someone's got to do it. Or y'know, space s'mores. And where there's a campfire, there's scary stories. Who's telling Man Door Car Hook Hand first?
Great Outdoors
Sometimes you just have to sit back and enjoy the wonder of being outside where light pollution is minimal, the forest sounds replace the noise of the city, and you can see the stars. Stargaze, wander around, just please don't get lost guys, keep your GPS on. Basically the wildcard option.

OTA
[For the most part, he's dozing on the En-Line. It's a miracle. Arms folded over his chest, head down. Feet propped up on his bag. He may even actually sleep if someone doesn't disturb him.]
[On the hike, though, he'll offer to carry everyone's stuff if they have trouble. But also be the one pushing forward as much as they can. They've got to get there before dark.]
Setting Up Camp
This looks all right to me.
[Says the guy who's never been camping before ever. But hey, there's a stream and an open space and everyone's a little tired. So he drops his stuff. Looks around.]
Let's get tents up, get started, guys.
[Quick claim a space before he tells you where to go.]
Campfire Shenanigans; 1
We could just use this.
[As he holds up his right hand. Waggling his fingers as purple light kindles along them. With little shimmers of heat.]
[Yeah, that's his solution for starting the fire. Just jamming magic space voodoo fingers into it.]
Campfire Shenanigans; 2
[So once it's dark and the fire's going. Once people have made space s'mores or whatever, he's grinning. The kind of grin he had when they were throwing goo at each other so long ago.]
You guys ever hear the one about the Goat Man?
[Shiro no.]
WILDCARD
[Push him into a stream or listen to him babble about stars, idk anything goes.]
Getting There
Which is why she's sort of at the back of the group, with a backpack that has her laptop in it, and a large-rimmed hat to cover her head and shoulders. And she definitely doesn't look terribly excited about all this.]
no subject
[He's aware she's not excited. Not in the least. But also aware the last time they talked... things didn't really turn out so well. He'd been giving her space.]
[But the distance just feels wrong, all things considered.]
[He drops back, after a while, waiting for her to catch up to the others.]
no subject
Well, she hesitates.
She doesn't like being mad at Shiro, but she kind of still is. And maybe that shows in the way her lips twitch slightly to the side, or her trying to hide her eyes beneath her big floppy hat. And with a small sniff, she presses onward.]
I'm good. [Her voice is flat when she says it. It sounds a lot like the way she spoke to everyone before she tried to leave the team.] Don't worry about me.
no subject
[Because no matter how many times she says not to worry, he's going to. He has to. Everyone on this team matters to him, deeply. But he can't really deny she's the one where the connection's been deepest, since they've been here.]
[And hearing that tone makes something tighten in his chest. Much as he keeps it off his face.]
Thank you, by the way. For coming out here. I know this isn't even close to your favorite thing to do.
So thank you. Means a lot.
no subject
But after that, she's quiet for a bit. She knows how much it means to Shiro that everyone on the team gets to bond and get better at working together and being friends and everything. Sometimes Pidge is even all for the team-building work. Especially where it involves some playful teasing and banter and badgering.
But apparently either that's not Shiro's style or he's just way too sensitive about Allura.]
...Guess no one can say I never did anything for the team now.

HOT TENT ACTION
[He extends his hand, left, as usual.] Thank you, again, for doing this. They can be a handful, but we've needed this.
porno music intensifies
Privately, he thinks he prefers his own choice. Something about cold metal doesn't sit well with him. But he extends his own left hand to shake anyway, because the alternative would be awkward.]
Don't think anything of it, I've needed it myself. I'll never be used to living in these cities, I think. It's nice to be the one who isn't out of his element for once.
don't do that in front of space bambi
[With... everything that's happened, the prospect of changing it, of getting something less alien is dwindling. More and more every day. Something he hates to think about.]
Cities bother you? Any reason you haven't moved out here? There's a lot of space in the treehouses, I've heard.
no subject
Lavellan sends a crooked smirk at him, not quite humorous enough to be a smile.]
I do live in one of the treehouses, actually. But I work...
[Well.]
I used to work in the other regions, but I never quite got the hang of it. I'm too old-fashioned, I suppose.

@ the fire
He's lost in thought when he gets back to their campsite, and a thick twig snaps underneath the heel of his boot, loud in the quiet night. SORRY, MAN. ]
a century later
He exhales and lowers it, then dismisses it entirely, when he realizes who he's actually looking at. One of the kids Shiro brought (dragged?) along on this little excursion. Kief or something.
He sighs again, with not a little embarrassment this time, and waves "Kief" away in a manner that he hopes is reassuring. Ish.]
Sorry. You caught me by surprise.
no subject
[ Keith holds both hands up, palms out, in the universal signal for "calm down there buddy." He's tense, and it shows in his wary posture, but if he'd actually been worried, he would have drawn his bayard. ]
I wasn't sneaking around or anything...
[ Slowly, he lowers his hands to his sides, feeling suddenly, embarrassingly defensive about his nighttime wandering. ]
no subject
I... sorry. [He already said that.] I'm just on edge, that's all. I apologize if I scared you.
[But wait. It is nighttime and it's only the two of them out here. Wasn't everyone else asleep?]
Did you need something?

OTA
[Finally. FINALLY. They're FINALLY GOING OUT AND DOING SOMETHING THAT DARIN ENJOYS. As a team!!! When Shiro finally made the announcement that they were all going camping, Darin could hardly contain himself. Almost as a point of pride, Darin packed as light as he could. In fact, he had a small pack of absolute necessities slung over his back as they marched through the woods. He was in his element here; away from technology, he can really showcase his survivalist skills.]
Come on, don't fall behind! We need to find a clearing to set up camp and it's gotta be by a fresh source of water!
Setting Up Camp
Tent? Nah, Darin doesn't need one of those. Instead, Darin quickly finds two trees that are close enough together that he can string up a hammock. Not only that, but he climbs a fair way up the trees to weave together a canopy out of the leaves and branches. With that, his sleeping space is already set up. And since everyone is busy getting their tents up...
...That means he gets to get the fire started.
Great Outdoors
[Now this is what Darin had been wanting for this entire trip. Having found a nearby freshwater lake, he's plopped himself on the bank, cast his line, and props it up with some rocks. Once that's done, he's got his notebook out and he's sketching the various types of flora and fauna. Every now and then, there's a tug on his line, and he hoots and hollers as he reels in his catch, dropping it in a pail to be gutted and cooked later.]
Man...I wish this could last forever...
CAMP
He says, while he's hammering part of a tent into place. Really, he shouldn't be surprised Darin isn't using one. He's just that kind of guy.
Doesn't mean he's not concerned, though. This is Shiro we're talking about, after all.
Re: CAMP
Darin hops casually into the hammock to test its durability.
"I loved it. Falling asleep to the twin moons above me was probably the best thing about being on the lam."
no subject
He doesn't think it will. But they're out in the woods. Where there's iffy weather. And bugs.
"The weather out here has done some weird stuff before."
no subject
"That's what that is for, my friend. Besides, a little water never hurt anyone."
Spoken like a person who is going to be caught in the mother of all downpours.
