The circle of chairs is... not in the bar today, instead there's a sign.

LIFE SUPPORT
OUTSIDE TODAY, ON THE BEACH
FREE FOOD AND A CHAT
CAMPFIRE WITH MARSHMALLOWS

Out on the beach, there is a circle of deckchairs. It's too nice weather today to waste inside. There's also a yummy picnic, and a thermos of tea.

New? Confused? Problems here or at home?
Come and join them!

[ooc: Open until the next one in approx 1 1/2 months (There will be no LS in July due to the fair).
All tags will be picked up by at least one of the LS crew. Threadhopping encouraged! All welcome xx
ETA 23.30: Guppy-mun now heading to bed but will pick up any slows tomorrow]

"That does make sense," Alana says, inclining her head. "Where did you get the gauntlets, and how long have you had them?"

[electro_kinetic]

"One of the professors at the school made the first ones for me when I got there, so a while."

[patterns_bloom]

"I'm glad you have new and presumably improved gauntlets now," Alana says, with a smile. "That's very practical of your professors."

[electro_kinetic]

Nori raises a brow. "I didn't say anything about them being the ones who improved it."

In point, she did.

Alana shakes her head. "My mistake. I assume that was you, then?"

[electro_kinetic]

"It was," she says. "I pared them down to make them lighter and more usable."

[patterns_bloom]

Alana wouldn't have expected that. "Good job," she says. "Can I offer you another marshmallow?"

[electro_kinetic]

"Sure, thanks. You want to see one toasted from the inside out?" she asks.

[patterns_bloom]

Alana smiles and passes Noriko two more marshmallows. "Sure, that could be interesting."

[electro_kinetic]

"It's not as impressive as it sounds, really." But she takes one marshmallow and holds it between her palms, concentrating for a minute. There's a snap, loud and resonant, and the smell immediately following of cooking sugar.

When she takes her hands apart again, there's a charred dot on the end of the marshmallow, but it gets poked out, leaving a hollow that's toasted perfectly.

[patterns_bloom]

"I don't know about that," Alana says, smiling again. "It seems pretty impressive to me. You have to have a lot of control not to just set the marshmallow on fire."

[electro_kinetic]

"Variable voltage," she chuckles. "It's like turning a toaster on low to high."

[patterns_bloom]

"Well, thanks for showing me," Alana says, inclining her head. "And thanks for the chat."

[OOC: Are we headed to a fade? Thanks for the thread!]
