Absolutely! What are they?

[ Dorothy is sitting on the sand because walking with crutches on the sand is a pain in the ass. ]

[infreefall]

Oh! Have... Have none of you tried them before?

[ you guys have been missing out ]

Okay, so first you roast some marshmallows, then you get some chocolate and graham crackers, and you smush them all together! S'mores!

[ tadaaa ]

[misstrust]

... I see. So the marshmallows melt... and that might help melt the chocolate as well?

This seems messy.

[infreefall]

It can be a little messy, yeah. But it's worth it! You have to at least try it once.

[misstrust]

I'd be happy to! I think everything is worth trying once.

[dianxias]

[ xl beams at dorothy immediately! im glad we sent that tag at the same time ]

[misstrust]

[ Dorothy beams back. Kindred spirits!! ]

[discernments]

[ idk where to put this

but let's say five minutes before everyone should be knocked out unless they're murderers or being murdered, Jeanne will come up to Dorothy with a thoughtful expression and then leans over to whisper something to her, so only she can hear. ]

[misstrust]

[ Dorothy blinks at her, a little surprised... but then she smiles and offers Jeanne her hand to give it an encouraging squeeze. ]

I know.

[discernments]

[ She sighs and looks into the fire and gives her hand a return squeeze. ]

I thinks that's as much as I can admit.

[misstrust]

That's fine. That's honestly more than I thought you would.

We don't need to talk about it anymore than this, if you'd prefer.

[discernments]

[ She turns to smile up at Dorothy, her appreciation more than evident. ]

... I've had a lot to think about lately. You really are kind, Dorothy. Thank you.

[infreefall]

[ now that they have sticks and marshmallows are being roasted, ochako holds out a s'more for dorothy! ]

Here! It might be a little sticky, but try it.

[misstrust]

Oh, thank you!

[ And she takes it, taking a fearless bite.

It's very messy and she can't talk until she stops chewing but-- ]

Goodness, that's fun!

[infreefall]

[ she's just. beaming. ]

You see why everyone likes it, right?

[misstrust]

It certainly feels oddly luxurious, for how simple it is.

[dianxias]

Miss Ochako does have wonderful taste in snacks... even if you didn't, I'd eat anything once! Let's try it.

[infreefall]

[ yay s'mores! ]

So we just need something to roast the marshmallows on!

[ she left her sword at the inn and a shield is useless for marshmallows :/ ]

[dianxias]

[ there's a long beat, because xie lian does have his sword. he stares at it for a moment...

................

no even he can't do that ]

I could dive for a piece of coral, or we could try to find sticks....?

[supremity]

[ gentle bap in the shoulder ]

You only have one change of clothes and we don't have time to dry them out, gege.

[dianxias]

I've slept in wet clothes before, that's fine.

[infreefall]

No no no, it's okay! Don't go diving. Sticks will work fine!

[dianxias]

[ he hops to his feet! ]

I'll go find some! I'm sure there's driftwood around somewhere.

[ there he goes... ]

[riegan]

[infreefall]

[ maybe we didn't want to mess up his arrows :/ ]
