strike_you_out | twenty one | drones up, bros down

[Slugger and Pokey, who've been droned for committing their first murder together, decide to do what bros do best and go on a camping trip. Backdated to the afternoon and evening directly following Black Mage's untimely death.

(A) 726 Anderson Lane
[Housemates are welcome to notice Slugger's unusually high spirits as he gathers up the necessary supplies for a camping trip: sleeping bag, lantern, marshmallows, food, etc. Closer inspection will reveal an ashy black substance on his pant leg and a lingering scent of smoke and burnt flesh that seems to follow him from place to place.]

(B) John Doe Park
[Two droned boys are setting up their tent and campfire in the park near the pond. Once enough sticks are gathered in a pile and the bonfire is started, there will be marshmallow roasting and bromance by the fire. Later on, possible ghost stories followed by a game of "what was that noise outside?" once they've retreated into their tent. (Possible posting order: you > Slugger > Pokey)]

(C) Park; early next morning
[While fast asleep in his sleeping bag, the droning begins to wear off. Soon, Slugger will awaken to find that his nightmare is actually a reality...]

[Just kind of... peering up from the evening paper like what is going on.]

[Back at 502 Ricardo Street in the morning, Clod has also watched as Pokey gathered his share of the camping supplies. She hasn't said much to him during then, but merely observed exactly what he was doing.

Pokey didn't especially look like a boy who would voluntarily go camping or would especially enjoy the experience.

Through somewhat of a coincidence, a little later on outside during Clod's usual wandering around town, she came across the camping grounds in the park. What the hey, she needed something to do anyway. She edges closer to the camping grounds to see what's up.]

[Ai is walking by and ....wait what?

Now standing outside the tent...]

[And when you wake up and you know, realize how insane this all was. You can step outside to see Ai sitting nearby.]

[Just turning and mumbling unintelligibly in his sleep. Looks like the "dream" hasn't quite ended for him yet.]

[well he was on his way to enjoy a walk, but it isn't often people decide to camp out in the park and it piques his curiosity. when he recognises one of the two people there he pauses for a moment, nearly saying something in greeting before noticing how off they seem.

...WOW irony at its finest. Charles is now officially convinced that Slugger and apparently everyone associated with him is a droning magnet.]
