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?"

	Lian nods patiently, having flashbacks to her first day of school, and keeps nodding after he stops speaking. "I also have the coordinates of each locked in on my communicator, and the Island, and the Watchtower in case the world ends. Isn't Doctor Zukov supposed to be our resident neurotic?"

	"And you're still responsible for his daughter on this trip, and a lot of other people's kids. You're the adult." Wait, he's doing it again. He sighs and smiles. "Let me handle the good doctor. You worry about the kids." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

"And remember," Dr. Zukov says, exiting the tower with his daughter beside him, "You'll encounter many auras you've never been exposed to before. Strange ... mesmerizing, even. Just, uh ... ju-j-just remember that the bears aren't friendly, alright?"

She's barely been out of range of his own supernatural senses since the day they killed his wife, and tried to kill them too. Caleb is overwhelmed with how nervous the prospect of this trip makes him, but she can't live her life if she's forever bound to the house, now can she?"

"And if anything goes wrong, Lian Harper here has all the emergency information, the radios, the medical supplies..."

	Jeannie is way too excited to hear her father. She lacks the superspeed to vibrate, but the enthusiasm is there. She nods along just so he thinks she's listening. A little picture pops up next to her of a small child in a carseat, and she casts a big, red "X" over it. Kissing her father's cheek, she breaks off to load her bag in the van.

	Caleb crosses his arm and stands there, quietly watching his daughter. He isn't cross with her in the slightest, but his own anxiety is a match for her enthusiasm. "It gets easier, I hope?" He inquires towards Roy. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"What, are you kidding?" Roy chuckles. "They'll be fine. Jeannie's in good hands, trust me." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"If I didn't, she wouldn't be going." He snaps in recognition of a lost thought. "I need to run back inside," he says. "I left the silver bullets on the table." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Cerdian swings his bag over one shoulder. "All set," he tells Lian. (Reply to this)(Thread)

	"Set here, too." Ty calls, phasing out of the building and floating down to the ground. He's packing light - the joys of not needing to sleep or eat. He glances towards the worried fathers. "They'll be fine, sirs. I'm sure Lian has everything in hand. There's also telepaths and magic along, if anything happens or we forget something." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Me too," Traya says, coming down the stairs, before slipping and bumping her way down a good third of the steps on her butt. "...I'm okay!" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	all_powerfull 2009-08-12 04:37 am UTC (link)
	Despite the fact that he doesn't really need any supplies, and carries what he has mostly for conveniences, and this should be pretty simple, Ty is actually pretty excited, never having done anything remotely like camping before. Tossing his tiny pack in the car, he quickly scoots over to offer Traya a hand up. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Iris is late. "I knew I should've set my alarm today..." she mutters to herself as she runs along to where the car with the her friends is driving along the gravel road. She may have overshot it just a bit. They'll catch up to her in a few minutes anyway. Grinning, Iris places her camping gear on the ground next to her and sticks her thumb out.

	Jeannie's halfway through getting a soda from the cooler when she sees Iris up the way. Jeannie's forgotten about the soda. Once they're at a stop, she throws the door open and scoots over for Iris, hands out in offering to help with the gear. Also, she's got to tease Iris a bit. Little red and yellow "Z"s crop up in the air. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Jeanie's not the only one who needs to bust stones. Lian turns around, looking over her Billy Joel sunglasses at Iris with a smirk. "How do you of all people manage to be late, Twinkle-Toes?" Lian nods toward Jeanie. "You're lucky I stopped. This one's dad would drop dead of a stroke if he knew I was stopping for hitchhikers." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	If nothing stops her, Iris will have a Traya glomp. "Iris! Yay! You made it! I totally thought you'd forgot!" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	dreamsofjeannie 2009-08-15 06:08 am UTC (link)
	Jeannie nods in agreement with Lian and parts her hands, flared out; no more parents' paranoia! She climbs nonchalantly over seats and people, though careful not to step on anyone, to put the luggage in the back with all the others. She settles in a space near a window so she can watch the aura colors that pass. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Cerdian could easily set up the tents through magic without lifting a finger, but he'd rather do it manually. He grabs an armload of tents and helps carry them towards the proper area. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

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