family reunion day 1;

[estival]

[It's a beautiful morning, shaping up to be a hot and humid day, as so many summer days at the Blind Buffalo Resort are. The piles and piles of people arriving in their cars to check in at the modest front office make it a noisy morning too, full of chatter and greetings from those who have long been apart. There isn't enough room in the office for everyone, so there's spillover of the crowd to outside, and a noise crowd jammed inside the room.

Now that's an idea I could have lived with. After all, all I've had here is abuse and even more abuse.

[i_got_this]

[She gives him a little smirk as she raises the bottle for a drink.]

You find somewhere secluded that's a little more comfortable I'll abuse you in the ways you like.

[Just, you know. Somewhere her sister can't find them.]

[wastheexample]

[That gets a low chuckle]

Sounds like fun. If I find a place not crawling with relatives, I'll get back to you on that one.

[i_got_this]

[South takes a healthy chug from the bottle and hands it over, wincing at the burn but enjoying it nonetheless.]

Good god, isn't it though? Where do all of these people come from, anyway? Some rich great-uncle three times removed or something throws a shindig and suddenly there's family oozing out of the woodwork. [What, like you, South?]

[wastheexample]

[He takes it gladly and takes a deep drink]

So long as I don't interact with them, I couldn't care less if they came from the moon.

[i_got_this]

Yeah, that'll be the hard part. [She crosses her arms an leans further against him, scowling somewhat.] Hard enough dealing with the rugrats in such a small space.

[wastheexample]

Especially when they're in a mood the second they step out of the goddamn car.

[i_got_this]

I know right? Ugh. I thought kids liked this sort of thing.

[wastheexample]

Not my kids. They'd rather be somewhere they can shoot things.

[i_got_this]

Don't they usually have an archery range or something at these kinds of places?

[wastheexample]

I'm sure they'll find it by themselves.

[i_got_this]

You think we'll ever get the cabin to ourselves for an afternoon? [Hopeful South is hopeful!]

[wastheexample]

Only if we steal one from someone else.

[i_got_this]

[South breaks out into a wide smile and cranes her head back to look up at him.] I like the way you think!

[wastheexample]

I do have flairs of genius from time to time.

[i_got_this]

That's why I keep you around.

[HEAVY SIGH] I can't wait for this week to be over.

[wastheexample]

I've got to be useful for something.

Yeah, then our lives can get back to normal.

[i_got_this]

Yeah, I like normal. ['Normal', of course, meant 'just as fucked up']
