[OPEN] When everything starts to fall

Who: Julien and OPEN!
Where: Pretty much anywhere.
When: Now up until April 29. Putting the date in the subject line's cool!
What: Come, spend a little of the time you have left with a big white bird.



[Some prompts! You don't have to stick with them.]

Julien's birthday is on the 25th. No party this year, but he wants to see his friends and spend some time with them. Go out to eat, stay home and cook, just hang out on couch cushions put on the floor, anything's good.

He builds bonfires on several evenings, in several different places, and watches them into the night. And roasts things on them. Were you drawn by the fire? Want some marshmallows?

And of course, he flies and walks anywhere. In Locke he feeds the glossy, overlarge pigeons, setting down seed. Elsewhere he buys grain and oats and such in bulk, not seeming to notice the attention someone who looks like a pigeon the size of a small horse attracts. Maybe he goes swimming off the coast of Christmas Island. Maybe he struggles with stairs. The sight of him in flight or landing is impressive.

The initial surprise Rakka had felt melted away, replaced by a more happy sensation. It wasn't everyday that she saw Julien anymore. She opened her mouth, only to find a lack of words there.

Nice. She smiled all the same. "Uh, yes! It's beautiful right now."

She started to move closer to the fire, and Julien. "I... It's been a while."

"I guess you'd want to get away, now that you're a giant bird." There may have been a joke in there somewhere. Or, it could have been a straight up observation.

She gave him a look of confusion. "Uh, my hair...?"

She caught herself and gave him a quick nod. "Right. I'm sorry."

"...Burning things can be fun, I guess." Sure, why not. She'd humor Julien and his bird religion. She reached behind her back, feeling along her wing until she felt a particularly loose feather and tugged it out. She quietly winced. "Ow!"

She looked into the fire, blazing before her, and tossed it in, watching the feather quickly burn up from the heat.

"Yeah, it's pretty..." She watched the fire briefly, seeing the feather turn to ash.

Well now, that catches her attention. "Ooh, marshmallows sound good."

She carefully took a stick and the bag of marshmallows from Julien's grasp. Rakka spoke lightly, as she stuck a few marshmallows onto the pointed end. Two seemed like a good number. "Oh. Don't worry. There can always be s'more s'mores."

She's funny, apparently.

"Thanks." She smiled and held the stick over the fire, letting the marshmallows cook. She could feel heat lick at her fingertips, so she tried to keep her distance from the fire.

Rakka thought for a second. "Hmm, me either. I've never done this before..."

Rakka made a mental note to be extra careful around Julien and the fire... and also keep some water on hand. She would never admit to knowing much about birds, but she at least knew that they weren't nonflammable.

"A... cult thing, really?" A bird cult, on top of that, apparently. Huh. "That sounds more like a date thing, then anything."

"Heh, I'll take your word for it." Being a bird must have been so strange. She couldn't imagine it, herself.

And now the flustered look comes. Way to go, Rakka. You brought this on yourself. "O-oh, no. Nothing like this." Still, there was a dreamy look in her eyes as she looked into the bonfire. "But... maybe someday."

"A romantic firelight... hmm...." Rakka lets her gaze slip to the glowing fire in front of them, though she wasn't really looking at it. Her thoughts were far away, thinking of romantic ideas she could try with Raye. Perhaps camping would be an interesting idea for a date... or simply going out somewhere and making a fire to cook and spend time by themselves.

...She was so caught up in these thoughts, that she failed to notice that her marshmallows, and the stick they were on, was currently alight with flames.

Whoops.
charcoalfeather: (I uh...)

"Huh...? Waugh!"

She flailed with the stick in her hands until finally tossing it into the bonfire. She stared at it for a moment, looking quire embarrassed. "Uh, sorry about that."
