twenty one | drones up, bros down

[strike_you_out]

[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...]

[When he sees her, Slugger accidentally lets go of the tent which subsequently collapses in on them. He fights with it for a moment before getting it above their heads again, smiling bashfully.]

[Well that takes Pokey by surprise, and he struggles along with Slugger to get the tent set up right again. He peers around a bit to see what the distraction could've been. And when he sees it, he just smiles. Smirks, really; it's the closest thing to Pokey's usual smile the drone can get. Before looking back to his own work, not saying anything.]

[Ai looks them. Well that answered her question. Drones then. She looks back to the awkward looking Slugger.]

Hello Slugger.

Are you two camping?

[His cheeks have take on a strange hue, a telltale sign that Slugger's drone crush on Ai is still in full swing. He seems particularly nervous about it since Pokey is here and gosh what if he finds out!]

[Hey wait what? Pokey nudges Slugger with his elbow, giving him a "what are you doing" look before turning to Ai.]



[Stupid girl, go away.]

[She just shakes her head and pretends this is normal]

I'd like to. But I have to go and babysit my little sister. I just stopped by to see who was here.

[Did he just get elbowed in the ribs? Slugger hardly notices, busy as he is scratching the back of his head like a typical school boy.]

[Pokey just rolls his eyes a bit at it, still annoyed by his friends behavior, but letting things rest for now. It looks like the girl is going to leave anyway.]

[As Ai leaves, Slugger stares after her with a stupid look on his face which suggests he's in need of a good backhanding.]

[Don't worry. Pokey will make sure to give him a light smack to the back of the head for those shenanigans.]
