LOG: Sunny Sky Lunches

[the_informant]

Who: Florida (Native), OPEN
What: Florida has a little picnic for him and his friends
Where: Reid Gulch Park
When: Saturday, 3/12
Warnings:

The days when he doesn't have work or information to collect are so rare. Florida would have thought that taking less kill jobs would mean more time for himself, but between watching out for Tex's family, trying to be there for his girl, and everything going on with the team lately, getting out and about has been hard. So today, on his afternoon off, he decides there is only one right thing to do: enjoy the time.

He packs up a large picnic lunch, sends out messages to his teammates, Sigma, and dear little Wash from another world, and heads out to the park. With him he takes all sorts of foods, games like ring toss, a few toys for Rex, and a book for himself in case no one decides to show up. And once he arrives at the park he finds a nice sunny spot to lay out his gear, updating the messages with a gps marker in case people decide to join him.

That done he takes out Rex's frisbee and gives it a toss to watch the now full grown dog frolick off for his toy.

Today is going to be a good day, with or without company.

Maine nods. He knows the feeling. When Lou stayed in Armonia, at least he'd had the kittens. Even leaving them with Sigma during work had been devastating.

"Unconditional love," he says. "Both ways."

"Unless he chews a slipper. Then there is a condition," Florida laughs. But the dog has stopped that.

That sound similar to the cats clawing the furniture. Thankfully they had trained out of that quickly enough.

"Fast learners."

"Good thing too," Florida smiles. "Praise and reprimand. We all function on that."

[maine_makes_growly_noises]

"We do."

At some level or another, depending on the person. Maine doesn't need as much praise as some people, he thinks.

[the_informant]

Or, perhaps, Maine needs it more.

"Come on, eat up," Florida suggests, gesturing to the food before them. "Picnic time."

He can't say no to food. Maine sits cross-legged and helps himself to several sandwiches.
