Private to Stephanie

[Kevin can't help his grin as he turns on the camera. He's already dressed to leave the ship and is fidgeting with the cuffs and collar of his suit. It's definitely not anything he's used to wearing.] Hey, Stephanie! You said you didn't want to stay here and we're at a port. It's not permanent but... It'd be some time off the Barge. It'll be fun.

Spam

[Kevin's been exploring as much of the fair as he can get to. He definitely needs spending money and he doesn't want to have to keep asking Jesse for more. The obvious solution is to hang out in the carnival area a bit and play with fire and paper. Everyone should just assume he's doing some kind of a trick, not magic, right? Besides, it's fun showing off what he can do. If he can make enough money, he'll buy one of those naked paintings over in that art building. If he makes more than that... Maybe he'll stay at a hotel instead of going back to the Barge overnight.]

[OOC: Feel free to run into Kevin anywhere in the fair. Just specify in the header.]

Me too. [ She tried again to shove her hands in her pockets. God she misses jeans. ]

Apparently my death made the news. Mom didn't even know I was still wearing masks. Hell of a way to find out.

[ She turns away, unwilling to let him see the grief on her face at the thought of her mother back home. ]

Mom and Dad are already dead. [At least they won't be missing him.] My stepmother killed me, so... [He shrugs.]

[ichoosefight]

I guess we're both on our own now, huh?

[ She doesn't plan on going back. Ever. ]

spam

[fire_punk]

I guess. Except Jesse.

[He's not planning to go back, either.]

[ She chuckles at that. ]

Yeah. I can't lose Dean and Iris even when I want to.

[ And there's something very nice about that. ]

spam

[fire_punk]

Yeah? Dean's pretty cool. [He's not sure what he thinks of Iris.]

spam

[ichoosefight]

He's pretty nosy is what he is.

[fire_punk]

[He can't help laughing at that.] No way.

spam

[ichoosefight]

Seriously! He monitors my silverware usage.

[ Ok that's not strictly true but it's easier to explain than the truth. ]

[fire_punk]

[Now he really laughs.] That's crazy!

spam

[ichoosefight]

Not nearly as crazy as Iris coming to check on me once a day.

spam

[fire_punk]

Really? Every day? [He makes a face.] Wow.

spam

[ichoosefight]

It's actually an improvement. It used to be twice a day.

[fire_punk]

Jesse checks in but not like that.

spam

[ichoosefight]

Consider yourself lucky. I'm basically on probation.

spam

[fire_punk]

Why? They don't usually do that.

spam

[ichoosefight]

No idea. I guess I'm just special.

spam

[fire_punk]

I guess.

[He doesn't say anything more for a while.]

Are you hungry?

spam

[ichoosefight]

Not really. [ But she doesn't want things to get boring, so. ]

I wouldn't mind a snack.

spam

[fire_punk]

I think I see something over there. [He points to the right of the tower.] Want to see what the have?

spam

[ichoosefight]

Yeah, sounds awesome.

[ She even smiles for him. Shee how good she's being? ]

spam

[fire_punk]

[It's a vendor with some kind of Middle Eastern dough rings.] Do you want to try them? [He's never had anything beyond normal American food. They look something like tiny donuts. Maybe they'll taste similar.]

spam

[ichoosefight]

They smell good. Why not?

spam

[fire_punk]

[He buys a pair and hands one to her. They're warm, just slightly crisp on the outside, and not too greasy. They taste more like fresh bread than anything else.]

spam

[ichoosefight]

[ Everything tastes pretty bland when you've been through what Steph has, but she smiles and hums approval anyway. It's a date, a few white lies are expected. ]

These are pretty good. Thanks for buying.
