T-shirts, cut-offs, and a pair of thongs

WHO: Beach Party People!
WHERE: The MAC, the party bus, a rest stop, and the Wildwood Beach!
WHEN: Friday 11am and onward into the afternoon and evening
WARNINGS: Possible make outs? Possible fights?
SUMMARY: Teens and young adults in an RV driving to NJ to have a drunken bonfire. What could possibly go wrong???
FORMAT: OPEN! There will be sections for different locations and times of day, so feel free to tag in and collect as much CR as you like!

Jessica was beyond excited. In the days leading up to the RV trip, she barely shut up about it. Even as she boarded the RV Laura had procured for their adventure and took the shotgun seat, she could barely stop talking. It was a beautiful day in the City, and the weather reports for their destination in Southern New Jersey called for blue skies and sunshine. It would be perfect beach-going weather, and it was bound to be the perfect summer night!

The emotional isolation, or the tight-lippedness?

I was thinking more that you can be surprising.

Hmm.

[ he raises an eyebrow and just chews on that for a minute ]

Never can tell. If I'm given the right reasons to be.

I don't know. With some people 'surprising' is just a personality trait. They can't help it.

I can't help wondering how much of that is in the person themselves, and how much is the expectations others have for them.

Mm, maybe you're right. But if they're constantly surprising people, maybe they're just giving out confusing signals.

Figure it could be the delicate interplay of both.

Hard to argue against that. It's never just a simple answer for things, is it.

Most of them aren't, no. You start looking closely and all you'll see is the careful detailing.

But some of them are?

Every now and then. But it's rare.

Ngh. Sometimes I miss being a kid.

[Says the seventeen year old.]

Some of us lost that opportunity fairly early.

[ they're the oldest sixteen-seventeen year olds in the world ]

Before you even notice it...

[Lets out a sigh- then winces as her head disagrees with that movement.]

Hm. Not exactly beach-party talk.

You haven't heard some of the beach-party talk I had yesterday!

More depressing than the loss of youth?

Been there, done that.

You sound like a living lifetime movie.

Nah, they'd need a worse actor to play me first.

[Alex, why do you keep making her laugh? It hurts]

Not to mention you'd need to get a secret family.

[ ...oh ]

I wouldn't worry too much about that one.

[-wait. Laughter cut off]

...that was just supposed to be a joke.

I think this is where you're supposed to say "Whoops."

Whoops. And sorry...really.

Eh, don't worry about it. That's all in the past, anyway.
