Bonfire Mingle Post || OTA

[sanguinescry]

Around the time the sun is starting to set in the early to mid-evening on Saturday, 11/12 as promised, Lydia will (hopefully with the help of Allison and a couple of others) have set up a bonfire on the beach. She's brought several bags of marshmallows, boxes of graham crackers, bars of chocolate, and s'more skewers so that s'mores can totally be a thing. There's also plenty of blankets and towels spread around, because she wants to be sure everyone is comfortable. Jill has offered to bring the alcohol.

Lydia can be found making her way around, greeting and mingling with anyone who arrives and throughout the night. She'll be doing her best to appear approachable so that anyone who maybe hasn't ever been to a bonfire and has questions will feel comfortable approaching her to do that.

Audrey has more faith in Nathan figuring this out than Duke does, but she expects it to take a little while. After all, he's having to figure this out on his own.

Funny, that thought had occurred to her as well. She looks over her shoulder a few times.

The idea of not having the Grey Gull there makes Audrey more than a little homesick. Duke's offer makes her feel better. She smiles at him, wraps her arm around his and leans against him. "Thanks, Duke." Her brow furrows as she listens to him. "There's got to be more than though though." Because Haven has always been Haven, even when it wasn't their Haven. "The newspaper maybe? Or the Barn?"

Thankfully, even when they get to the docks, the bonfire is still in view some ways away. Duke can take that tiny thing and feel a little bit of relief at that. Those people, if they're real, are still there.

Even if he knew he could wish the Grey Gull here, that wishing is what got the Cape Rouge here, he isn't sure he would wish it here. Maybe he would. But he'd also almost immediately found The Houndstooth. It was nice. The girl who runs it seems okay too. Since Duke has turned into the nice guy who helps everyone, he doesn't want to step in on her business. At least not right off the bat.

Also, he's kind of hoping that Nathan will get his act together and get them out.

"Nope. I've been all over this town three times already. There's just this." Duke leads Audrey into the belly of the boat in his living space. He rifles through his closet for some cut off sweat pants that will probably serve as capris on Audrey. "I know, I looked for the Herald too. No Vince and Dave. No Herald. No Barn either."
