Video 4: Did he sign up for this camping trip? [Backdated to May 1]

[justanexpression]

[video meant for Shaun... but let's face it, Jack's hardly a tech wiz, anyone could see it]

[It's late, and Jack knows it, but he'd made a promise, and he was going to keep it. At least, as well as he could without letting Sho wander out of sight, anyway. He's just hoping Shaun is still awake to pick up.]

Hey, Shaun? I said I'd tell you before I left town, right? I'm kinda cutting it close, so I hope you get this soon.


[open video]

So... hey. Uh, yeah, so Bunny? Tooth? Or anyone who might be wondering. Hypothetically, right? Might be gone for a while.

Anyone know if there are maps for places off the Routes?


((OOC: follows the events of Sho's Fire Dance))

[justanexpression]

Naw, I wish. As often as I could manage it, sure, but sometimes you gotta have other kinds of weather.

[justanexpression]

Pretty much. And it's not nearly as nice as walking the Routes.

[There's all kind of nature out here, which was much less annoying when he wasn't alive to get bug bites.]

[ video ]

[colorsofthewind]

Oh, I see. [ she ponders this a moment before breaking into a smile ]

... Yes, you do need to pinky-swear.

[venturesomely]

Mm, but it'll snow here sometime! We should have a big snowball fight then.

[video]

[paladinlost]

They tend to appreciate the new attacks more than they dislike any potential discomfort.

[ video ]

[justanexpression]

[That, he can do, then. He holds his hand back up the screen, pinky finger out, and waits for her to copy the gesture.]

If anything happens, I'll let you know as soon as I can, so you can come rescue us.

[video]

[justanexpression]

Okay, good point. Who knew fluffy guys like them would be so competitive?

[justanexpression]

[A kid after his own heart! He grins.]

Come on, keep up. I only planned that like the day I got here. It'll be the biggest snowball fight of all time.

[ video ]

[colorsofthewind]

[ She mirrors his gesture, smiling all the while ]

And I'll come to rescue you as quickly as I can.

[venturesomely]

The biggest?

I'll invite my friend to come, too! We'll go together.

[justanexpression]

Awesome! Invite everyone. It'll be even bigger!

[This could only end badly.]

[video]

[paladinlost]

Perhaps they are so competitive because their fluffiness leads people to underestimate them.

[video]

[justanexpression]

Yeah, knowing some of mine, that's totally something they'd do.

[teablossom]

...he looks very intense about something.

[And she is failing to fight a grin at the view, knowing the other boy could over at any second.]

Is he trying to find something more than a way out of the forest?

[venturesomely]

Oh-- What's your name? I'm Gon!

video

[justanexpression]

[It is pretty amusing, isn't it? Jack's grinning, too, when he turns the screen back to himself.]

He's pretty much intense about everything from what I've seen so far.

And yeah. He made one of his friends really mad, like really mad, so he's trying to cut her off before she gets too far.

[justanexpression]

I'm Jack Frost. Nice to meet you.

[video]

[paladinlost]

That'll be extremely useful during battles, I assure you.

[usedvicegrip]

Yeah... but some people like adventure!

[Like him!]

[video]

[failures]

[Wait, what was that? Larry knits his eyebrows.]

Whaddya mean you "made sure they had a late spring"?

[video]

[justanexpression]

Eh, just sent a cold front their way. Pretty minor one, since they're already so far north. Couple extra inches of snow, some frosty weather, and bam, late spring.

[justanexpression]

Yeah, and I'm one of 'em. I just don't like tripping on tree roots every couple steps.

video

[teablossom]

It must make for a very dedicated trainer.

--do you think they'll reconcile quickly?

[That sounds less rude to ask than what he did, at least.]

video

[justanexpression]

...I think your guess is as good as mine.

[He knows Sho as well as anybody here, for the most part, but he's only heard about Bell. Well, and seen her try to headbutt him. That part doesn't exactly scream 'I forgive you.']

[video]

[failures]

[Larry continues to state incredulously.]

... Okay but, that's not a normal thing people do. Are you supposed to be Jack Frost or something?

[He says that jokingly, but uh...about that, Larry.]
