Midnight Toker

by **Jennifer Newgate** » Tue Dec 09, 2014 8:10 pm

Jennifer is hanging around the edge of the woods, finding a good spot to settle in and pulls a bunch of stuff from her bag, building herself a joint.

Brigid for her part is sick of being cooped up. Thus, upon being let loose she's retreated to her comfort zone.

At the moment that happens to be the woods. She does seem fairly relaxed as she wanders.

by **Jennifer Newgate** » Tue Dec 09, 2014 9:11 pm

Jennifer leans back against the tree trunk she's decided looks the most comfortable and lights up, craning her head back and blowing a cloud of smoke up into the night sky.

by **Brigid Plunder** » Tue Dec 09, 2014 9:20 pm

Brigid wrinkles her nose at the smell, and starts to head towards Jennifer.

by **Jennifer Newgate** » Tue Dec 09, 2014 9:26 pm

Jennifer startles when she hears somebody coming, cupping the joint in her hand. She relaxes a little when she sees it's Brigid but keeps a dubious eye on her in case she's not cool with the ganja.

"Hey..." she says carefully.

by **Brigid Plunder** » Tue Dec 09, 2014 9:32 pm

"Hey," she says, nostrils flaring. A bit of the ember reflects in her eyes.

There's something a little off about her mental presence. Something that got stirred up and hasn't quite settled.

"...don't worry. Steph isn't around."

by **Jennifer Newgate** » Tue Dec 09, 2014 9:39 pm

She quirks an eyebrow at that. "Well yeah, why would she be?"

by **Brigid Plunder** » Tue Dec 09, 2014 9:43 pm

"You haven't seen her out here? This is like, her zen place."

by **Jennifer Newgate** » Tue Dec 09, 2014 9:48 pm

"Ugh, guess I gotta find somewhere else then if she snoops around the woods." she says, relaxing a bit more and taking another drag from her joint. "You want some?" she asks, holding it out to Brigid.

by **Brigid Plunder** » Tue Dec 09, 2014 9:49 pm

She wrinkles her nose.

"Pass. She'd smell that a mile away, too."

by **Jennifer Newgate** » Tue Dec 09, 2014 9:58 pm

"So what? It'll be gone by the time we got power control again."

by **Brigid Plunder** » Tue Dec 09, 2014 10:02 pm

"Out here, I mean." She shrugs and leans against another tree.

"So what's up? I haven't seen you much since Maya flipped out at the game."

by **Jennifer Newgate** » Tue Dec 09, 2014 10:09 pm

"Suit yourself. And I've been around. Busy with school shit." she shrugs.

by **Brigid Plunder** » Tue Dec 09, 2014 10:10 pm

"God, I hear that," she says, picking at a bit of bark with her fingernails.

"I've had, like, zero time to myself lately."

by **Jennifer Newgate** » Tue Dec 09, 2014 10:23 pm

"What do you mean?"

by **Brigid Plunder** » Tue Dec 09, 2014 10:27 pm

"Just..." her surface thoughts flash on a giant wolf held aloft in a tornado, with an arrow sticking out of its eye socket. "...I don't know, mostly bullshit. People hassling me about stuff that wasn't a problem."

by **Jennifer Newgate** » Tue Dec 09, 2014 10:32 pm

"Like giant wolves?"

by **Brigid Plunder** » Tue Dec 09, 2014 10:35 pm

Brigid blinks, then pinches the bridge of her nose.

"I keep forgetting you can do that."

"But yeah, you probably heard the rumors. Everyone was flipping out about it."

by **Jennifer Newgate** » Tue Dec 09, 2014 10:38 pm

"I heard someone fought a fire-breathing Sasquatch in the woods. I figured it was probably bullshit."

by **Brigid Plunder** » Tue Dec 09, 2014 10:39 pm

"There was a wolf the size of an SUV. Yeah, we had to fight it. Everybody's okay."

by **Jennifer Newgate** » Tue Dec 09, 2014 10:49 pm

"Cool." she says in that too-cool-to-care tone. "Where did it come from?"

by **Brigid Plunder** » Tue Dec 09, 2014 10:52 pm

"Some Norse crap, they've got Professor Weaver dealing with it."

Not technically untrue.

by **Jennifer Newgate** » Tue Dec 09, 2014 11:05 pm

"Weird. So you fought that thing? That's pretty wicked."

by **Brigid Plunder** » Tue Dec 09, 2014 11:10 pm

"Guess it was," she says, the odd presence sensed earlier stirring again.

"Wasn't just me, but I feel pretty good about it. I mean if we're going to have to deal with freaky monster crap at least we can show we're not helpless."

by **Jennifer Newgate** » Tue Dec 09, 2014 11:35 pm

"Well what do they expect you to do? Run away?"

by **Brigid Plunder** » Tue Dec 09, 2014 11:39 pm

"Steph tried to send us back to the dorms. Can you believe that?"

by **Jennifer Newgate** » Wed Dec 10, 2014 12:04 am

"Remember kids, when you see a giant monster just calmly walk away until you find the nearest adult." she rolls her eyes.

by **Brigid Plunder** » Wed Dec 10, 2014 12:08 am

"She totally needed our help," she says, the presence in her mind stirring, tense and unseen. There's almost an impression of hot breath for a moment.

"I'm through being talked down to by her, though."

by **Jennifer Newgate** » Wed Dec 10, 2014 12:21 am

"Oh. You gonna start shit with a teacher? Well, junior teacher, I guess." she asks, curiously poking the presence in Brigid's thoughts.

by **Brigid Plunder** » Wed Dec 10, 2014 1:04 am

"Well she should know better by now, right?" Brigid asks, getting a wild look in her eyes.

The presence in Brigid's mind gives the impression of pacing, a restless feeling. There's a faint echo of claws against stone.

by **Jennifer Newgate** » Wed Dec 10, 2014 1:10 am

"Cause you saved her hide?"

by **Brigid Plunder** » Wed Dec 10, 2014 1:14 am

"She would've been screwed if we'd gone back to the dorms!"

by **Jennifer Newgate** » Wed Dec 10, 2014 2:01 am

"Hey, I'm not saying you didn't!"

by **Brigid Plunder** » Wed Dec 10, 2014 2:03 am

"Well then I'm agreeing. If she's going to still keep treating me like I'm helpless, she's getting a piece of my mind."

by **Jennifer Newgate** » Wed Dec 10, 2014 2:16 am

"Man, you're really riled up about this, aren't you? Are you sure you don't want a puff or two?"

by **Brigid Plunder** » Wed Dec 10, 2014 2:22 am

"Wouldn't you be angry?"

by **Jennifer Newgate** » Wed Dec 10, 2014 2:30 am

She seems to genuinely consider that for a moment or three. The pot making her thorough albeit slow. "I dunno. I don't get angry a lot. I'd probably get pissy and take passive-aggressive potshots at her." she concludes. "Why? You worried that you shouldn't be angry?"

by **Brigid Plunder** » Wed Dec 10, 2014 2:39 am

"It's just really frustrating," she says, the presence in her mind rearing up for a moment.

"I've caught so much crap for not being comfortable with my powers. The one time I really felt useful, I get told I shouldn't have done it."

by **Jennifer Newgate** » Wed Dec 10, 2014 3:00 am

"Yeah, what is it with being told not to use our powers? Like, what's the point? I'd just be missing out on the snarling thing in your head."

by **Brigid Plunder** » Wed Dec 10, 2014 3:07 am

"Snarling... what?"
