Who: Ambrosia Gray and YOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOU!
What: Bonfire!
Where: Makeout Point.
When: Now!
Warnings: Should be fairly safe.

[ With the fire getting steam, Ambrosia sits back at a safe distance with her hands up a bit. The last time she held any kind of bonfire like this was years ago, but with how things were in Mayfield, she thought that there was a need to have at least some kind of party, however small it may be. ]

Hope ye don't mind if I brought a few extra people, pop 'n mum. Thought tha' ye'd like it.

[ Mingle among yourselves - she won't mind. As long as people are having fun, that's what counts. ]

Here's me thoughts on tha', mate. Sure, dealin' with yer problems is fine 'n well, but with me own experience, whatever eats at ye can become overpowerin'.

[ And she's definitely not kidding on that. ]

[He's silent for a moment as he struggles with this internally, hands gripping that soda a bit too tight]

I know. Friends can help. I have my team - I really like my team.

But if I rely on them too much, they'll become a crutch. And how am I supposed to get stronger that way? I've got too far to go to stop now!

[outlandished]

[ Oh, Black*Star. Ambrosia will merely shake her head while chuckling a bit. ]

Well, ye're entitled t' yer own opinion 'n all. I ain't gonna try t' change yer way of thinkin' if yer settled on tha'.

[tosurpassgod]

[He looks over at her, the look on his face far too serious for a boy his age]

You never worry? About losing your own power?

[outlandished]

[ The serious look is returned with one of her own before shaking her head. ]

Why should I be? If I know tha' I'm gonna stay on top 'n alive with me own talents 'n skills, I ain't gonna worry. Tha's one of th' joys 'bout bein' a pirate -- ye can be yerself with no one judgin' ye but yerself.

[tosurpassgod]

[The thought settles in and the young man's quiet, looking away from her and up at the night sky]

You've never lost to another pirate then? Not even once?

[outlandished]

Oh, don't get me wrong. I've suffered plenty of losses throughout th' years, but instead of dwellin' on 'em like some kicked puppy, I pick up th' pieces 'n decide to keep on movin'. If ye stop, ye'll never get t' where ye need t' go.

[tosurpassgod]

[He considers her words for a few moments, then he nods and looks over at her with a smile]

Thanks, professor. I owe you one.

[outlandished]

Any time.

[ She returns the smile finally with one of her own. ]
