take a one way ticket to the bacchanal

Who: Connor and the Jormun and y'all.
What: It's a weed party.
When: Weed Day
Where: The Monkey Compound.
Warnings: I mean. Drugs. There's drugs in this post and a disappointing lack of Alan Cumming dressed as a goat.


Connor kind of only means to invite the Jormun over because it's 4/20. He can't, like, not do anything for 4/20? Then it kind of occurs to him that after the utter disaster of the last island and the, uh. Questionable? Findings? On the new island, people might actually want to have a party.

So he scribbles a invitation somewhere on the rock:

Party on 4/20
Monkey Compound
Be there or be square

The party itself is kind of - there's a fire? And something is roasting over it? There's a couple tables, none of which are remotely the same shape or size because they're all that kind of wooden table. You know, the kind that rich people get to look rustic. There's also some chairs and benches, but let's be real: this was a party put together by a dumpster fire of a human being. Aside from the baskets on the center of each table that contains some fruit and a bunch of assorted bowls made out of coconuts - some of which contain suspiciously blue milk - there's not a whole lot of decoration. It basically looks like the kind of party that might show up if you searched "sad birthday parties" on a stock website.

He tried, okay? There was a serious attempt, given that realistically Connor actually was just gonna hang out with the Jormun and get high until he decided that other people might actually. Want to hang out or whatever?

Besides, we all know you're here for weed jokes anyway so it doesn't really matter what the actual party is like. Pretend like this is playing in the background or something.

[It's genetic, thank you very much.]

My clothes are fireproof.

[You wouldn't think something that looks like a blue tracksuit would be fireproof, but it sure is.

Also? The petting is nice. It makes him feel even sleepier, so don't mind him as he leans closer.]

I won't do that. [The Human Torch is a reference that sails directly over his head but he's going to assume that's a bad thing? And he's done too much training to be a danger any more.] What's wrong with the striped basket cookies?

[o h]

I- didn't know.

[But it's not like he's upset over it. He's more just confused, now, but hey, he's also more relaxed than he's ever been in his life so it's all okay.]

I'm not a baby, though.

[That's not how Shouto's relationships with his siblings have ever gone, but nothing about his family is close to standard.

He looks surprised to see Gabe, who he vaguely remembers was...kind of terrified of him? Oops.]


I've met him before. He's kind of...

[Just...going to let that thought trail off. There's not really a good description for him coming to him right now.]

He's not that bad.

[Even though he kind of is. Shouto just...still feels incredibly guilty.

He closes his left hand over right wrist, the ice that's built up slowly starting to melt.]


...He's afraid of being cold.

He tried to steal stuff from me right in front of him.

[And then got bothered that Shouto wasn't still bothered by that. It was a weird journey.

Also, the point. He had a point.]


What if someone was a snake and scared you really badly? You'd have the right to be a dick to them, wouldn't you?
