SENIOR MONTHLY BONDING



SENIOR MONTHLY BONDING

Monthly bonding is, as always, greeted with mixed enthusiasm. All the seniors will be taking boats out to Lone Wolf Island for a day hike, led by Mrs. O'Hare. There are storm clouds looming, but Mrs. O'Hare is certain that it's not going to be a big deal, and no gosh darn storm's going to keep her grounded!

Everything starts out normal enough, but unfortunately, Mrs. O'Hare's optimism has reached a little too far this time. An intense storm sets in, and the waters are too choppy for the students to return to the mainland. Mrs. O'Hare guides the students through the rain to a neglected old cabin.

"There used to be a mining camp around these parts!" she shouts over the rain. "This guy here's about all that's left. C'mon in, kids!"

Inside is musty, spidery and there's an angry raccoon that needs to be evacuated, but it'll do the trick. With the storm not letting up, it looks as though the seniors will be spending one very miserable night in this cabin with a dinner of granola bars, bananas and oranges. It's a tight fit in there, so everyone get to know your neighbors. Now this is what Mrs. O'Hare calls bonding!

THE HIKE: The earlier part of the day is a nice low impact hike around the island.

THE STORM: The rain hits hard, and everyone follows Mrs. O'Hare, who has an idea!

THE CABIN: There's a small cabin from the late 1800's out here on the island. Everyone crams inside and stays warm with heating charms and snugglepiles.

THE NIGHT: The seniors have to stay overnight. They manage to conjure up basic blankets and pillows, and warming charms are used liberally.

A NOISE: It's about 3:00 AM, when something slams into the side of the cabin, right by Robin Youngblood's snugglepile. WHAT WAS THAT?!?! [Character Y] screams as they see a man outside!! HE'S SCRAPING AROUND THE CABIN, HE'S TRYING TO GET IN, YOU'RE ALL GOING TO DIE. (After ten minutes of panic and shrieking teenagers, it's revealed to be a curious bear.)

THE MORNING: Everyone returns to Gooseberry, cranky but not much worse for wear.

Diego makes a detour to say hi to Cricket, hopefully when Maggie and Tabitha are elsewhere. As promised, he's there to show her the friendship bracelet he got from Cecil.

"This is a whole new level of sentimentality from him." But he's glowing when he says this, clearly very pleased.

"Aww, I love it," she takes Deigo by the wrist and closely inspects the little beads. This looks like Maggie's work, but she doesn't say that. His smile is infectious and she grins honestly right back, "But we'll make'im an even better one."

Diego's smile softens a little, and a more thoughtful mood comes over him. "Thanks for helping me. And for, you know." He pauses, and gestures vaguely at Cricket. "For being you, I guess."

With Tabitha moping somewhere nearby in her gray sweat suit, Cricket isn't as affectionate as she wants to be (read: giving him a hug).

She gives his wrist a gentle squeeze though, before continuing to inspect the bracelet. "Oh, it's nothin'. Sweet of ya to do somethin' like this for 'im," she shrugs bashfully, "You wanna do beads like this, too?"

Diego gives her a crooked smile at the wrist squeeze. "Not a lot I wouldn't do for him. I kind of thought I'd made my last friendship bracelet when I was ten, but life takes you to unexpected places."

He looks at the beads, and tries to figure out how they were made but... "It's transfiguration, isn't it? I'm really going to need help. But first I'm going to need to think about what I'd even want them to look like."
