[The video opens on a pile of wood, sticks, shrubbery, and chunks of what might have been siding, all piled into a very obvious pyramid surrounded by rocks.]

So everything has sucked recently. Back home in Montana, when shit got rough we'd always get together and have a big bonfire. Get drunk, make s'mores, all that stuff. It didn't make things better but at least you forgot about it for a little while.

Worth a try right?

[He sounds like he's honestly asking. He's trying really hard to be positive for once.]

I've got some graham crackers, chocolate, and other things for roasting. No marshmallows though so if anyone wants to come through in the clutch it would be appreciated.

I'm lighting this up tonight at dusk, so if you want in, be there. I've only got so much to burn and it might not last more than an hour or two.

((OOC: Feel free to use this like a log and make top levels and do action things. Go forth and get some bonfire mingling on!))

[Peter contemplates bolting right this second anyway, but nah. Taako's pretty cool, so instead of taking off Peter just sighs in defeat

and starts making gagging noises.]

Nope, just indigestion. Better move those shoes, bro, I'm gonna yartz all over them.

[pocketspa]

Hey you break 'em you buy 'em, don't start with me boyo.

[As if to dare him, he pokes him in the stomach again. It's like an in joke that he's decided is one, forget if Peter has.]

What's up your ass, huh?

[itsnotaonesie]

[obvs Peter isn't actually about to hurl, but he does flinch a little when Taako pokes him. don't surprise him with belly pokes how could you]

Nothing, I'm fine. I'm just tired.

[how many lies can peter tell in one day let's find out]

[pocketspa]

[C'mon you handled it well before, buddy, now he knows something's up. It's not that Taako cares about his wellbeing-- it's more funny to pick apart someone being uncomfortable.

And maybe he cares a little about kids but only like 20% don't get any fucking ideas.]

Then why are you out here? Don't tell me it's the food. Go get some baby sleep for your baby face.

[He says, as if he's letting Peter out of this psuedo headlock.]

C'mon, live a little, do you drink? You're in a death city, you should be able to drink.

[itsnotaonesie]

[can Taako's noodle arms hold down a Spiders-man????? If Peter wanted out of this pseudo headlock he'd just fuckin' go.]

No, man, I don't drink. I'm out here because people said I should be, so. Like, here I am, I guess.

[Also stop sending him mixed signals, do you want him to get baby sleep for his baby face or booze up???]

[pocketspa]

[Probably not as a normal taco man, but when you can become a giant rock monster or a land octopus or something who's counting on strength scores huh?? Not this guy.]

So what, are you a straight edge teen? Abstinence 'till you die? Fantasy teen sprite pepsi?

[He just glosses right over whatever that fucking sentence was about, in the way he does most things.]

C'mon, you're in another dimension, now's the time to be doing what you've always wanted with like, two consequences max.
