[OTA] S'more S'mores, Please (joint EP: Emma and Jag)

Usually when Emma couldn't sleep, she cooked. Last night had been the opposite. She'd started trying out new marshmallow variations, completely lost track of time, and spent most of the night in the kitchen instead of doing reasonable things, like sleep. She'd grabbed a nap in the wee hours, though and another after lunch, and now was wide awake.

She also had batches and batches of homemade marshmallows.

Around sunset, Jag helped her set up a table near the pool and outdoor bar, that she loaded up with the marshmallows, graham crackers and other cookies, chocolate and berries and spreads and bacon. Anything somebody might think of that would make a good s'more, from the traditional basic graham, milk chocolate bar, plain marshmallow, to bourbon marshmallow s'mores with smoky bacon. If the inn was anything like the castle, word of mouth would spread quick enough, and the food wouldn't go to waste.

Jag had started a fire right beside the table, but after having had his own fill of s'mores, he had left Emma to meeting the demand of other hotel residents. He was sticking around to make sure the fire was behaving just right, though. So he was lying on his back a little way from Emma's table, and the fire he was still controling, weaving and sculpting additional fire between his hands, keeping a distracted ear on what was going on nearby.

Mack would take know it, feel it over just winging it and hoping it works by the seat of his pants.

"Practicing would be great. That's really all I do back home with our teacher. I can shoot fire arrows really well." It came easily to him, "but that's all I've ever really done to 'control' it."

"I've never tried that," Jag stated thoughtfully. Fire knives, absolutely. He'd had a great number with Gillie. But fire arrows? Never. He wondered how different it would be. He gave the kid a half-smile. "Something for you to teach me, too?"

Mack puffed up a little bit with pride thinking he had something that he could trade for Jag's help that he could actually teach. "I'd like that." He said honestly. "I'll show you a different kind of target practice."

"Different?" Jag echoed, curious what the kid meant.

"Well back home the only training I have is with with my three friends in a special class. No one knows that it's really training, everyone else that aren't Changers just think it's a special PE class, which it kind of is I guess. Anyway, we always change into our forms when we're practicing so you'll be learning fire arrows from a three tailed fox."

He shot him a grin.

Jag chuckled. "And without the use of drugs. That'll be a first."
