Welcome to Camp Camp
Cecil was waiting in Carlos’ new lab after finally getting Station Management to agree to a vacation. He was excited to surprise his Significant Outsider, having not told him that he was going to visit him or that he got time off. Sitting on an empty table in his old Scouts uniform, Cecil watched the door impatiently.
Carlos had been out collecting soil samples from around the volcano. He wanted to know how long science could tell him that the volcano had been innactive.
Eventually Carlos did come back to his temporary lab – a tent with a lot of mobile equipment set up inside along with a cot. Carlos walked inside, but then stopped when he saw who was there.
“Ceec? What are you doing here?”
Cecil grew excited when he heard Carlos coming up to the tent, waving at Carlos, hopping down from the table.
“Carlos! You’re finally back!” He said with a wide grin. “I finally got Station Managment to agree to a vacation and I missed you. So I thought I would visit you.”
Carlos blinked, surprised. “Uh… r-really? That’s…” His face broke out into a grin. “That’s great! I had wondered if you would try to come because I said I’d be studying an extinct volcano…” He put down his samples in his cot and came up to hug Cecil.
Cecil quickly hugged Carlos back, enjoying the comfort of his embrace again. “That sounds really…neat! Tell me about it,” he said, smiling at him as he fixed his messed up uniform. He glanced around the cot.
Carlos smiled at him. “Of course! Oh, first of all… I have some news to break to you. So, the volcano, Sleepy Peak Peak… do you know what volcanoes are, sweet?”
