louise nicholson, travis jennings, week 1

Week One - Monday
Who: Travis and Lulu
What: Someone wants to come along for the supply run... and learns how to shoot a gun >.>
Where: Near the gate/entrance of the Wall
When: Monday morning; a few hours before the supply run is to take place

Lulu was bored. A bored Lulu was never a good thing. It often led to her having to take things into her own hands, and figure out some way to amuse herself. After annoying quite a few people with her chatter, in the hopes of doing such, she set off to find someone that wouldn't outright ignore her. Del was no where to be found, and she figured that he was probably actually doing work. Shai and Whitley were around somewhere, but after circling the camp twice, and seeing hide nor hair of them, she admitted defeat.

Right now her amusement consisted of kicking a small pebble in front of her as she walked. It was someone letting out a loud curse that brought her attention away from such. Looking up and swiping those long bangs out of her face, she peered around for who said expletive had come from. Travis wasn't hard to spot, over near the vehicles used for the supply runs. How could she have forgotten!? There was to be a major supply run today, which was always interesting. She'd been able to talk her way onto one or two before, and even though it was no trip to Disney World, it was definitely more entertaining than being trapped at Haven.

That pebble lay forgotten as she tucked her hands into her jacket pockets, approaching the other. Lulu wasn't a big fan of adults, usually because they weren't a big fan of her incessant chatter and super-hyper ways... but Travis was pretty cool. Where as some of the others tried to tell her to tone it down, he usually just went along with her ramblings. Well, there had been a quite few times when he flat out told her to shut up, but she was willing to overlook such for the chance to tag along today. With an extra spring in her step, she continued forward and took a leap towards him. "Travis!" she shouted upon impact, that characteristic grin on her face as she peered up at the tall male. "Hiyah! What's up? Fancy meetin' you here." Lulu laughed softly, yet again pushing those bangs - that she was forever messing with - out of her face, before returning her hand to her pocket. "So, supply run today, eh? Sounds important. You'll probably be needin' some extra help, right? I mean, 'cause I don't have anything to do..." she gave an indifferent shrug as she continued on. "I could probably help out." She could have also been out doing that which had been assigned to her, but what was the fun in that?

That smile spread from ear to ear, taking on an almost creepy effect, as she kept her gaze on him.

"Son of a bitch." Travis slammed down the hood of one of the vehicles. "Where the fuck is Del? How the hell are we supposed to go get supplies if the goddamn truck isn't running?" He'd gotten into the habit of talking to himself when trying to deal with the group's various problems. Partly because he wasn't the sort to keep his frustrations to himself, and partly becuase occasionally people overheard and actually fixed things. There wasn't anyone to overhear him at the moment. Or at least, he didn't think so.

He'd been so distracted by the malfunctioning truck that he hadn't noticed Lulu's approach. "What the..." He turned, slightly surprised when she shouted his name. "Lulu."

He looked down at her skeptically, listening to her bid to go along on their little adventure. He had let her go before, although that had been when they had fewer people and needed all the help they could get. He wasn't really in the mood to be babysitting on this run today. "I don't think so, Pollyanna," he answered with a smirk. "We don't need any extra Eater bait on this run."

"Yep! Me." That smile got even wider, even though it seemingly wasn't possible, and it didn't take long for her cheeks to begin to ache from grinning so wildly. Making a rather odd face as he continued on, she stretched her jaw and wound it in a circle... before picking right back up with the smiling.

A single brow was lifted as he referred to her by a name that definitely wasn't hers. "Dude, I told you like a million times- I have no idea who this Pollyanna chick is. Like, you tried to explain it to me that one time, but I still have no freakin' idea who she is." Had he not pretty much rejected her offer to come along, she more than likely would have continued to talk. Instead she let out a disappointed, and rather drawn out, groan. "C'mon! I can run fast, and like, fit into small spaces if they come!" Fitting into small spaces might not seem like a great skill to have, especially when faced with the Eaters, but it had definitely helped during the one actual run-in she personally had with them. "And besides, you'll be there. You've got a gun, and can protect me and crap."

Lulu called up her best puppy-dog face, and switched that smile from crazily obnoxious to downright sweet. "Pleeease?" she pleaded softly, canting her head to the side slightly in attempt to help sway his decision.
