Main Campfire, Tuesday Evening

Sitting by a fire-less campfire with one's hair in a shower cap and a half-eaten bag of unroasted marshmallows resting on one's sleeping dinosaur's stomach as she snoozed between two logs probably wasn't a very typical "camping" thing to do, but Gert was a city kid, so cut her a little slack

"Hey hey, castlemate," Jessica said, wandering over. And then, because she had to, she asked, "What's with the shower cap?"

"Hair dye," Gert reported. "Figured I'd spare you and Sia from being trapped in a vinyl structure full of dye smell for a few hours." It was less awful outdoors. "What's up?"

"Actually, I think I'm speaking for Sia here too when I say that anything you can do to make that uninhabitable so we have an excuse to not sleep in a clear bouncy castle is okay by me," Jessica said.

"Tempting, but the alternative is probably sleeping on the ground," Gert reasoned. "If the administration let us go back to the dorms just because our bouncy house was full of chemical smell, everyone would start doing it."
