[Paddy was currently balancing on a tree branch, looking out for kids doing something stupid, but mainly trying to stay out of the way and get himself a smoke break without being noticed. He lit up and watched a couple of people from above, seeing if there was anyone interesting to watch. Oh, and eying that squirrel on the branches above

[Parker had been hiding out in order to avoid any form of the trail of tears, and as such, she had been avoiding people for as much as she could and had taken to hiding out in the woods in order to avoid being dragged with. Also, she wanted to try and smoke like Laura had taught her too, so she leaned against a tree and pulled out the matchbook. She was down to a single match after all of her failed attempts at Laura's thumbnail trick. This time she got it to light and was so shocked she promptly dropped the match on the ground with a curse.] Damn.

[He peered down from his branch and the girl struggling with the matchbook,] Hey, kid! [He didn't care if any of the kids smoked, but he liked scaring them for a minute,] Don't be doing that.

[He grinned and threw down a lighter,] Try the less classy but easier way.

[Parker jumped about ten feet and when her lower lip dropped open, the cigarette fell off it and landed somewhere in the brush below her. She looked incredibly guilty for a moment before he tossed down the lighter. There was a little laugh, and she felt the tension slip off into a smile.] You owe me a cigarette now.

[Paddy grinned and clambered down from the tree, sighed and held out his pack at her,] One cigarette and one cigarette only. Matches indeed. That's just... faffing.
