Speaking of sparkly-eyed innocent youths, here was one right now!

Rock was wearing a comfy blue hoodie and a giant smile as he entered the Stadium. His expression brightened even more upon seeing the environment that had been projected - such amazing technology! He couldn't have imagined a better woodland setting.

"Hi! I hope you don't mind, I brought my guitar in case we wanted to sing around a fire." Sure enough, there was one slung over his shoulder. An electric guitar. "That's what you do when you go camping, right?"

[rockinmelody]

"Sounds pretty accurate to me," spoke up the taller boy that was approaching from behind the small group. He did enjoy a good sing along. Ness grinned at everybody with a stuffed backpack slung over his shoulder.

He took a look around the area and gave a low whistle, tipping his cap towards Jake. "This is some pretty nice work. It even smells like the woods a little bit." Kind of. Sort of.

"I hope you guys need hot dogs and marshmallows cause... I have a lot of hot dogs and marshmallows."

[goldtrainer]

"You brought hot dogs and marshmallows?" a significantly shorter boy asked, walking into the stadium. Gold gave the environment, like the others, a good once over. Obviously impressed, he nodded slowly with the dopiest grin on his face. Finally, he noticed the other boys there. He recognized Ness and Rock right away, but the others were not so familiar. Gold waved anyway.

He became self-conscious that he hadn't brought anything with him. Rock has his guitar and Ness had brought various goodies. All Gold had brought was a sleeping bag and a baggy of pretzels that he hadn't really intended on sharing. Ah, well... Hopefully no one would mind.

"This is awesome," he added once he was finished being overwhelmed.

Speaking of being overwhelmed, Sasha appeared and gave a tiny whistle.

"Hey this is a really neat idea!" she said behind Gold, not noticing who else was there yet. Sasha had come, well, because Red was going to be there. It had been a while since they had some this type of camping together and this one probably had a lot less snow involved.

She had brought her camping gear with her, which is to say....one(1) Charizard, and two packages of cheap store-bought hotdogs sausages which were no doubt ill-gotten gains from making large eyes at Nancy for her to bring something to the 'trip'. She had wanted to go buy something better, but the water had kept her inside for the past day.

"Look what I gooooooot!"

Flare came with a small satchel and nothing more. She didn't need much in the wilderness, namely for the fact that she kind of always lived in it. There isn't anything more natural than living in a cavern drenched in lava. Yes.

Inside of said satchel is a hefty bottle of Tapatio- that is, a pretty damn good hot sauce. She is just waving it around now.

"You can't have a camping trip without this for the goods!"

Yes, she eats her marshmallows with it. Gross.

Riwane wasn't far behind as she took off her rollerblades and switched to her sneakers, walking into the arena, backpack in tow and headphones still on at a 'modest' sound level. which mean you could still hear the music, just not clearly!

Once she got to the place where the others were, she waves cheerily; "Hey ya'll! This is pretty neat!"

She placed her backpack down and took out two big bottles of sweet tea she had made for the occasion, a small box of cocoa mix and two packages of hot links.

After having sat down and laid the guitar on his lap, Rock stared at the food everyone had brought. He had an E-Tank for himself, but that was all he needed.

"Are you guys really gonna be able to eat all these hotdogs?"

There were a lot of hotdogs.

[rockinmelody]

Ness gave a very sage nod. This was a very grave matter.

There were a lot of hotdogs.

"I fully believe in our ability to eat all of these hotdogs."

[goldtrainer]

Gold looked at Ness, nodding oh so sagely. He then looked to Rock.

"We should have.

A hotdog eating contest."

[blazinglizard]

This kid looked like a gigantic pain-in-the-ass twerp, but this didn't sound like too bad an idea. Anything that revolved around shoving large amounts of carnivore-friendly food in his face was a good idea in Char's books.

"Let's absolutely do this."

[will_be_god]

It was at that moment that Cyrus happened upon the encampment. He stared at Gold for a moment as though he had just suggested a full-on assault against the city.

[orangestarbeats]

"That sounds like an awesome idea, and I am totally behind it," Jake answered. So far things were turning out excellently.

[sportsflower]

SO MUCH WATER.

Daisy arrived at the campsite. She decided it would be a fun way to spend the evening, hanging out with friends. What she didn't count on was being rained on all the way to the arena. She was still soaking, wringing out her hair and taking her backpack off.

"I have never been this wet in my LIFE," she said.

[will_ablaze]

Riwane was ALL for this contest! In fact she looked excited and even the flame on her tail flared up a bit more intensely.

"Alrite! Ah'm totally game fur all this!"

She turned at the sound of Daisy and offered her a spare shirt she had brought along.

"Got sum shorts too if ya dun mind wearin' those."

[will_be_god]

Cyrus had already dried off, having come earlier, but kept to himself for the time being. They were going to celebrate gluttony waste, and were making a game of it! "Disgusting," he muttered, moving to a fallen log that served as a seat.

[punchvolcanoes]

Sasha got closer to Jake and leaned on him, pointing to Cyrus.

"So who invited the grump?"
