Characters: Open to all!
Content: Camping time!
Location: Nature Deck
Time of Day: Morning, a couple of days after 90's Kid's funeral-thingie
Warnings: Depends on if the campers behave.

After last week, Kotetsu figured everyone needed some cheering up. Thankfully, the satellite had done most of the work for him. He had been given a councilor's apparel and, dang it, he was taking it to heart.

There was a campfire ablaze near the lake, with hot dogs and marshmallows at the ready nearby. A couple of tables were set up for arts and crafts, so the kids could make birdhouses or dreamcatchers. He'd even managed to set up a small archery field. (The tips were suction cups. No need for any more tragedies.)

Whenever anyone signed in, he greeted them with an enthusiastic "Welcome to Camp S.O.L.!", then directed them towards the activities. Finally, he pointed out where the boys and girls tents were located, with a warning that he better not find anyone in the wrong tent.

"Oh, no. We can go." It was much better than just sitting around.

"Okay." It really was better than just doing nothing.

The trick was, where to start. After a quick look around, she settled on the lake as a central point. "Why don't we start at the lake?"

"Okay..." MakubeX wrapped himself a bit tighter. The lake was the part he had been dreading the most. Mugenjou had been far enough away from the ocean that he never really got a good look at it and the biggest amount of water he'd really ever been around was a filled bathtub.

But, as nervous as it made him, it was something he'd always wanted to see. He could do this...

Xion picked up on his apparent discomfort and placed a hand on his shoulder, since his hands were occupied in securing the blanket around him. "Don't worry if you can't swim--I can't either."

It wasn't anything like the ocean, that she knew from Sora's memories. It was still pretty, though, and if you cared to get close enough, you could dunk your feet in and watch the fish come to investigate.

The fact that she didn't know how to swim either made him relax a little.

"All right. Let's go then." He sounded somewhat more confident.

Xion smiled, seeing him relax. Keeping her hand on his shoulder, she guided him over to the lake. She stopped where the dock met land, just in case that was as close as he cared to be.

"It's not normally this big, but there's always some fish."

In fact, maybe there were some swimming nearby at the moment. Her hand left his shoulder as she stepped out onto the dock and crouched down to see if she could see anything interesting.

He nodded and took a hesitant step onto the dock. He kept back, but peered into the water.

"...I suppose it's too small for dolphins."

Xion smiled and made more room for him.

"I think it is--those only live in the ocean." That much she knew for sure.

She gestured towards some small fish swimming not far below the surface. "I thought we might see some of these."

He tentatively came closer, keeping away from the edge. He peered down and tilted his head curiously. "What are they?"

"I'm not sure what kind of fish they are, but I see them here a lot." There aren't any books in the library for identifying what kind they are, yet. Xion just thinks they're pretty.

"They do look quite interesting..." MakubeX admitted. He got to his needs to take a closer look.

"They can be fun to watch." For a little while, at least.

MakubeX nodded.

"What do they eat?"

"I don't know." She hadn't been able to look them up, so she didn't know what they normally ate, and she hadn't tried feeding them for fear of giving them the wrong thing.

Besides, when it came to pets, she was really more of a dog person.

Curious, MakubeX carefully lowered himself onto his stomach and lightly touched the surface of the water with a finger. He grinned as some of the fish curiously pecked at it.

Xion smiled and moved to sit beside him. Sitting was more comfortable than kneeling, and it seemed like they might be here a while. Even if they really only saw the lake today, that was okay. There would be plenty of time to explore other parts of the nature deck, later.

One step at a time and he'd be willing to see it all. He seemed to be more relaxed, although he was still keeping hold of that blanket.

Whatever pace worked best was fine for her. Just getting to spend time together like this is nice.

We run, we jump, we swim and play...

XD Well, if she asked...

They can't try to climb trees if he's wearing the blanket. X3

...well, they could try... XD

Yes they could.. :3
