you aaaare

oh way well memory wise I'm the baby

WE'RE BABIES

[ohhmrburnsides]

Is it ethically unsound to allow two babies to get high

[umbrastaff]

nah

we don't know any better, blame the adults

[ohhmrburnsides]

Good bc we're doing this no matter what. also I'm outside

[umbrastaff]

get in the door's open

[Lup has hoarded some junk food and made a blanket fort, hurry up Mags!]

[ohhmrburnsides]

[He spots the blanket fort as soon as he throws the door open. Despite his excitement, he pretends not to notice.]

Luuuuup? Where are ya, buddy?

[umbrastaff]

[She glides out of the blanket fort with a lazy wave, wearing a way too big sweatshirt and yoga pants.]

It's my best man! Get over here, I got us a great setup!

[ohhmrburnsides]

[With a stupid giggle, he follows Lup into the blanket fort.]

Aw hell yeah, you got snacks! Gonna need those. ... Is that my sweatshirt?

[umbrastaff]

[Cookie fries, homemade chips, cake leftovers, you name it.]

Mmmmmmmaybe?

[ohhmrburnsides]

[He glares her down but only for a moment. The whole crew has been stealing his sweaters for a hundred years. He's over it.]

I'll let it slide this time. [As if he hasn't let it slide every other time.] You are providing me with The Good Kush, so who am I to complain?

Oh shit, Lup, I haven't done this in a while. I was, like, straightedge in Raven's Roost.

[umbrastaff]

[She doesn't even blink at the stare down, just cuddling further down in the sweater. Suck it Mags, it's hers now.

Her ears perk up a bit at the next thing he says, though, and she can't help laughing.]

Oooh shit Maggie, you're gonna get fucked up on this. Maybe you should take it really slow.

[ohhmrburnsides]

Pssssh.

[He waves his hand.]

I'll take it as fast as I wanna take it. I'll be fine.

[umbrastaff]

Fine, don't come crying to me later.

[She has blankets and mood lighting with some soft pink Dancing Lights. It's perfect.]

Make yourself comfy, I got the goods.

[ohhmrburnsides]

As if. So maybe it's been a few minutes. I'm still a pro.

[He puffs out his chest to prove his point.]

Ready when you are, sis!

[umbrastaff]

[Of course she's gonna light them up with some fancy swirls of fire, nice and official.]

I traded way too many cupcakes for this, so it better really be the good kush.

[ohhmrburnsides]

Show-off. [He grins at Lup's fire tricks. He acts unimpressed but they're still fuckin' cool, lbr.

When he takes his turn on the bong, he coughs up a fuckin' lung. Dumb baby thought he'd be okay.]

'scuse me. [He pops out of the tent for a glass of water, laughing at himself through coughs all the way to the kitchen.]

[umbrastaff]

[Lup is wheezing with laughter back in the tent. Magnus fucking Burnsides, coughing like a newbie.

Amazing.]

[ohhmrburnsides]

[He returns with a giant-ass Tervis tumbler full of water. Assuming these exist here. Why wouldn't they. His cough has mostly subsided by now but he's still clearing his throat.]

Still good! [He gives Lup a thumbs-up. And then coughs.]

[umbrastaff]

You're a fucking mess and I love you.

[Lup returns the gesture with a finger gun and then hands him another pillow so he'll sit up more and not choke on that cough.]

This finally feels normal.

[ohhmrburnsides]

I'll take that as a compliment.

[As silly as it is to get nostalgic over smoking weed of all things, she's right. It's been a minute.]

Yeah. This feels good. [... He coughs. Then he takes the pillow from Lup and rearranges himself.]

Okay, hit me again.

[umbrastaff]

[She immediately punches his shoulder - because it might be the oldest joke ever, but it's traditional.]

Here you go, Mags. Don't choke this time.

[Lup cuddles further down into her sweatshirt and gives a content sigh.]

I'm so fucking glad you're here, Magnus.

[ohhmrburnsides]

Me too. [He looks at her fondly.] I think I was supposed to end up here. I think Riverview, like... pulled us back together again. On purpose.

[He glances back down at the bong.] This isn't even hitting me yet. Lup, we're gonna get reaaal sappy in a few minutes. [He takes another hit and this time the coughing is minimal.]

[umbrastaff]

I hope so... or something like that. It's been fucked up here without our family. Not my first choice of place, but... as long as we're all together it doesn't even matter.

[She smiles at him and makes a little thumbs up as he manages to no cough as much this time.]

Damn right we are. I'm expecting happy crying.

[ohhmrburnsides]

[He shrugs.] I dunno, I like it here. There's a good community goin' on here. I wouldn't mind sticking around here a while...

Maybe the others will come around eventually. I mean, they've gotta...

[He pauses, then realizes he needs to turn this conversation around if he doesn't wanna get too sad. Never a good idea when you'e tokin' up.]

Oookay, anyway. Let me at some of those munchies.

[umbrastaff]

Yeah, the people are nice.

[She's still butthurt about forgetting how to use her magic, okay? Sometimes the weirdness of this place worried her.

...but a change in topic is great, and she scoots a bit so that he has full access of her little munchie assembly.]

Got all the good stuff here, my man. I also got some fizzy drink that's just amazing. Got no booze in it so it's a safe mix, but it tastes great.

[She places a bottle of orange soda on the small table in the blanket fort.]
