Entry tags:
[CLOSED] you better pack your bags
WHO: the birthday girl & invited guests
WHERE: Magatus
WHEN: 7/16 ~ 7/18
WHAT: (short) road trip
WARNINGS: Probably nothing but will update if something happens
Jen had this trip all planned out. The camper looked a bit riduculous with the pirate flag Satsuki had stuck to the side of it, but it was all in good fun so why not leave it?
On Monday, Jen arranged to pick up everyone ini the city before noon. The idea was to get them all to the recommended camping site well before evening, set up the tents and fire pit, and scope out the lay of the land before taking it easy. Of course the roads are not without their share of hazards, in the form of the random small monsters getting curious about the engine noises. Curbing any temptation to run the beasties over (it's a RENTAL, people!), Jen will suggest that the two powerhouses of the group (Kara and Satsuki) hop out to deal with them while she grabs the emergency tool kit in case anything manages to sneak inside.
Tuesday was a day to be filled with exploring, hiking, some climbing, and the highlight of it was the end of the trail with cliffs peering out over deep, clear waters below. Perfect for diving for the more adventurous of the lot. All the while Jen will be leading the charge like she'd been saving up energy all week for the trip. When they all get tired of that? Time to retire to camp for grilled meats and veggies, popcorn, s'mores, soft drinks and hard drinks, and chatting around the campfire. Maybe someone has some good stories to tell - spooky or otherwise? It's just the five of them underneath the stars.
Wednesday morning was time to take in any last-minute sightseeing, clean up the camp, and head back to Recolle. Hopefully with their sense of adventure satisfied, friendships deepened, and spirits high. Most of that is up to each individual, but Jen will do her best to make sure this birthday outing went as smoothly as possible.
((OOC: kinda barebones in a way but I didn't want to bog everyone down with a boatload of details. if your chara wants to bring along some games, suggest activities, or w/e Jen will be happy to oblige!))

there's also that weird dream. Satsuki's reaction doesn't even strike her as particularly telling, and she hasn't found a good way to bring it up. right now may not be the time at all, given there's no real escaping from each other should things get as tense as they did in there. they're hours away from anywhere with only one reasonable way home. ]
I mean it's all just thanks to Retrospec leaving the stupid batteries out of my bike. [ she brightens up. ] But, hey, if I get one back from them anytime soon, we should go for a ride!
[ Jen you don't even have a license for that. ]

Jen was trying. She was obviously trying. And no dream entitled her to anything. It was just that, a 'dream'. It only mattered however much they wanted it to, and Jen already had someone, someone who sounded perfect for her and her complicated life. It would be cruel to just... let that spite impact what they still had, wouldn't it? Selfish, cruel...
She took in a deep breath and worked on a smile, even if it was a little weak.-
I'd love that. You know me. I'm not gonna turn down a chance to hang out when we're both available, right?

Jen had to stop thinking. at this point, averting their moods from total crashes and getting on with the trip was the idea and it seemed as if Jen had done just that.
they can hash out details later. even if Retrospec doesn't provide her with fuel anytime soon, she might just rent a bike to use. the bike wasn't the most important part of that ride; hanging out was.
she looked outward and upward. ] Oh, it looks like they're finally ready to join us.
[ moving to the side, Jen raised her voice and her arm into the air. ] Hey, come on down! The water's fine!!
[ at that last point, she gave May a smirk. ] They're going to hate this...
