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.

It is awful to try to comprehend, but Prim is finding more and more here that she needs to talk about it, to get people to understand where she's coming from. Maybe then her reactions and frame of reference won't be so weird to them.

But she nods seriously. "I'd like that. Whenever you want to stop by the Apothecary, I can show you. And um... thanks."

"Okay, we can meet up in a day or so? I want to see if I can get more supplies. If I have my bag, maybe there will be more of what we need. I'm sorry if I made you uncomfortable. Maybe it's a bit too soon to be saying that. I think we will work well together. Better?" Claire smiles tentatively, hoping to make a new connection in the world of healing.

Prim nods. "It's okay, really. I'm... trying to explain more and run less." But it's hard. She's not as bad as her sister, but sometimes even Prim has trouble not letting her emotional trauma get in the way. "But I'm really looking forward to this. Whenever you have a chance, let me know. I'll be ready."

If you want to set up a separate thread, LMK.

"Okay, then I'll message you on the network and we can set up another time to meet. I'll have to come see where you work and all that." Claire smiles, knowing that she has a plan, somewhere to be and work to do. She might just enjoy this gathering after all.
