Weekend Away
Roy's checked the brakes, and the tires, and the spare tire on the vehicle. He made sure all the packs had basic medical kits, that the tents were really good tents, and the flashlights were all new, with batteries to spare. He's made Lian go over the lists of essentials twice, and he's lost count of how many times he's lectured her about being in charge, and the responsibility that goes with it.

Because it's making him feel like Ollie, he'll be done now. Really. There's no more he could possibly check with her.

"You have the numbers to all the local ranger stations and the hospital, right?"

	"Whoooo!" Traya cried with glee as she got out of the van. "Nature, I am here!" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

That's a good thing, because Teddy doesn't trust magic for the tent he's going to sleep in. It's bad enough the three guys are getting shoved in one, even if it is twice as big as either of the girls'. He puts his game system away as he grabs a bunch of stuff.

Of course he gets tent duty with the two girly-girls. Traya needs an entourage for all her luggage! Over under the trees, Teddy takes a look around. "If we put up there-- there-- and over here-- we can have shade pretty much all day. Unless someone has a preference for baking like a tostada?"

It may help Teddy's sensibilities some that Ty has no need of sleep, nor any intent to bother. It'll be crowded enough, and he's kind of looking forward to sitting up and listening to the sounds of the campsite at night.

Noting Cerdian not doing things the easy way, and still enthused about this camping thing, Ty does the same, starting to work on getting the campsite set up manually, working on building an efficient firepit.

Gleeful to be out of the cramped vehicle, Jeannie steps out onto earth and breathes in the fresh air. It is wonderful here! This place is--

She drops the bag with the tarp over by where Lian is, and then walks slowly to the nearest tree, always looking up. She touches the bark. Things watch here.

She backs away quietly and goes back to the truck. She'll unload that for a while... away from the trees...

	"Herelemmegetthatforyou," Iris is a blur, as she sweeps past the rest of her friends, grabbing the other tent. She has it all set up in about two seconds. Literally. "Ta-da!" she raises her arms above her head, "All done!" CRASH. Turning her head to look at the now crumbled tent, Iris lets out an uneasy giggle. "Oops." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Lian looks away from Jeannie at the sound of the crash, and shakes her head with a chuckle. Speedsters "You know I have to take your glasses now, right?" Lian tells Jeannie, leaning against the truck. The real reason she came over is to find out why Jeannie doesn't seem to want to leave the truck. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Jeannie grins and shrugs, motioning around as if she's looking for her glasses. After a moment, she throws her hands up and lets a picture of home drift into the air. And all the while, her face reads, Oh gee what a terrible mistake! (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	lil_redhood 2009-09-04 06:55 am UTC (link)
	Lian blinks, looking over the top of her sunglasses in surprise. It's unlike Jeannie, but Lian knows when Jeannie is trying to lie. "You left them at home? I mean, I'm proud of you and all, but are you gonna be okay when everyone wants to light a campfire?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

Jeannie scoffs and turns her body slightly left, pointing her shoulder in a pout.

"Not a baby," she says sourly, and starts fussing with her sneaker. "And marshmallows."

Letting out a sigh, she sits up straight, hands paralleled away from her body, and looks Lian right in the eyes-- which actually appears more comical than serious. "I can go out and-- I can go out--" Words aren't coming. She doesn't have to be okay all the time. Not being okay is normal and sometimes okay.

Damnit! Jeannie throws her hands up.

	"It's cool" Lian tells her with a nod and a hand on her shoulder. "It's a ballsy move either way." Lian grabs one of the duffel bags full of food and slings it over her shoulder, motioning Jeannie toward the other bag with the pans and utensils. "Let's get these over to the cooking area."

"Iris..." Teddy pinches the bridge of his nose as he looks at the mess. "Some things require patience. Trust me, you don't want your tent collapsing on you in the middle of the night, either."

He comes over, dragging up a pole from under the tent, and disconnecting it and then putting it back together with another piece. "This goes here... and see? This goes like this, so you had that right..."

	Iris pouts just a little. "Fine." She really, really, really didn't like doing things "snail paced". She crouches next to Teddy, "Like this?" she begins to reassemble the tent, fighting the urge to just use her superspeed to put it back together. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Cerdian just shakes his head, bemused. He begins putting the other tent together again, as well. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"It doesn't suck so much being one of us 'slow people,'" he teases her. "Once we get these up you can super-speed around for us and get firewood." Because there's no way to screw that up with superspeed... Unless a tree falls on her. Maybe there is. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"I can understand that, gets kind of nice being able to just have stuff done in a second or two sometimes. Since I seem to be finished with my bit of set up, I can run with you a bit and get firewood, if you like?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	catchmeifyoucan 2009-09-11 06:14 pm UTC (link)
	"Cool!" Iris gives Ty a wide grin, "We could have a race!" Yes, she did always want to see which one of them was faster. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	all_powerfull 2009-09-11 11:28 pm UTC (link)
	"I think the speed force kind of trumps all when it comes to super speed, right? Pretty sure you'd win." He's not entirely positive on that, using Black Adam's speed with Zoom's time dilation lets him do some impressive things, speed-wise, but he's not much of a competitor. He'd probably let her win regardless. "But I can definitely help with firewood." (Reply to this)(Parent)
