Status: Dropped

Jenny smiled widely as she sauntered up the steps to the museum front door in the pale twilight. She had, in her hand, a paper bag from the gas station. In it she'd managed to collect a few items for a fun time. Some of them she might not have normally brought or consumed, like the brick of pot and rolling papers that Sid had thankfully allowed her to have and taught her to use. Some of them were only for certain fun times like slumber parties with pot, like the munchies which were probably stale but would be delicious when they were both fiending for food.

This was going to be a seriously fun night. She hoped that she wouldn't fuck it up the way she had fucked up just about everything else she'd tried to do since she was tossed into the fray. As long as she kept her mind off her past and anything unhappy or scary, she should do fine. She could handle that, right? Besides this was Shannon. Shannon was cool and they shared enough in common that Shannon would probably understand if she slipped a little. She hoped.

With a deep breath, Jenny brushed her hand down the length of her slightly dirty tea dress, brushed the hair from her eyes and knocked on the door to the museum. She bounced a little on her heels with anticipation. She couldn't wait to get started.

"Actually, yes. It helped a lot, so thanks for the push in that direction," Shannon replied with a small smile. "And actually, it wasn't so bad even after being caught. He said he didn't know what it was but he thought it was really pretty and asked if I wouldn't mind letting him watch. Once I got over the creep factor and realized he was just some kid who happened by, I didn't actually mind it so much. Cielo, was his name, I think. He had blue dreadlocks which was weird but kinda punk and cool...have you met him?" she asked, settling on the floor opposite where Jenny had set herself on a display table.

Her eyes widened slightly as Jenny just kept pulling more and more things out of the bag. "Damn, girl, how did you carry all that?!" she laughed incredulously. "More importantly, how did that bag hold together?" She smirked and drew her knees up to her chest, resting her chin on them as she watched Jenny empty out the bag of goodies.

"Being prepared is awesome. I never really thought about that kind of thing until the Island," she muttered almost bitterly. Stupid Craphole Island... "But, hey, it came in handy here because I'd had the presence of mind to go to the gas station and stock up on granola and SlimFast bars before the snow got really bad," she said with a small smile. "Oh!" she exclaimed. "Speaking of which, I totally have some of those, too, if we run out of your munchies," she chirped.

Shannon tipped her head slightly to rest her chin on her knees and looked back up at Jenny from her new sideways position. "I haven't met Sid, yet. He's the one from across the pond right? Well, one of the ones? Why wouldn't he like you? I'd think if he gave you weed, he must...most potheads I've met are pretty damn stingy. I guess that stuff is probably pretty expensive," she said with a facial shrug.

Getting to her feet again, Shannon moved closer to Jenny and the mass of stuff all over the table. "Should we just get right to it? You think we should blow it out the windows?" she asked. "Oh and if you don't have a lighter with you, I can go grab mine. Or my matches, I still have some of those left," she added nonchalantly. Jenny mentioned a "key party" and Shannon furrowed her brow just slightly with confusion. It sounded like something she might've heard in passing, but she wasn't really sure what that was. "Yeah, ha, probably," she agreed with absolutely no conviction, given her lack of knowledge on the subject.

"No, I haven't met him! He sounds like some of the people I used to see at Bette's art galleries back in LA. And if you like him, I'm bound to. I think you and I are very similar in a lot of ways. Except I think you're probably braver than I am." She caught a breath at having revealed that much and smiled, switching the subject quickly. "I'm glad you danced! I started writing so I think we both found our relaxation techniques."

"You know? I have no idea. This place must be magic," she said in a weighted tone. It was obvious that this place wasn't normal and she didn't like it at all. She'd even heard there were people who hunted ghosts and time traveled. That was deeply unsettling to her.

Jenny look dubiously at all of the munchies she'd already bought and started to giggle. "If we eat all of this AND need something else, we will have to be really wasted. Do you know how nice it will be to just take a mental break from all of this?" She stopped talking immediately because she was getting close to revealing too much. Looking away she messed with the rolling papers, setting them out precisely side by side in a line.

"Oh, well I think the Brits have a different way of handling things. He's very nice and well, did you see how much pot there was? I mean bricks and bricks. No one could smoke that much in 2 years!" She avoided answering the question though because that was a sore subject for her. She'd fucked up royally and she knew it. It made her want to dive into self-loathing but she reminded herself that this was a FUN night. None of that.

When Shannon spoke again she looked up and smiled. "I wasn't sure if you really wanted to but I kind of want to get started now. Is that okay?" Then she slapped her forehead with her fist lightly. "I can't believe I forgot a lighter. I have everything else but no lighter! Do you mind?"
