“Yeah, it’s… it’s not something I like to relive, honestly. But that was a different time in my life.” She said with a smile. “But now, I get to start anew, and I even made a new friend too!” She said happily, taking a bite of the treat in her hands. “And one who knows how to bake too! She said with a sly wink before swallowing. “And awesome! When is a good time for you?”
A tint of red appears on her cheeks with a sheepish grin at the compliment to her baking skills.
“ W-Well…I can’t take all the credit there. My parents make a majority of the pastries here but thank you! I’m really glad you like it! “
Marinette explains as she moves a couple strands of hair out of her face, gratitude clearly showing when her gaze remets with Sunset’s.
“Ah, hm….well, I’m on Bakery Shop duty until my parents return. It’s their anniversary today and I promised I’d stay here and run the shop so that they could celebrate. Would tomorrow around noon work…?”
“I think I could do that. I’ll need to get set up at a hotel or something until I’m up on my feet, so I’ll be around.” Sunset said, finishing the last of the pastry in her hands with a grin. “Anything I should know about Paris before I head off into the wild?”
All that night David was unable to sleep. He’d interviewed a woman on the phone a few days who sounded eager to work there and he’d be DARNED if he wasn’t gonna give her an AMAZING first day when she arrived. As soon as his alarm went off, the man hopped out of bed with a smile on his face. As quick as a bunny, David dressed up, showered up, brushed his teeth and hair and saluted his camp flag. He had excited bubbles in his belly and he was eager to share his positivity.
When David saw the car approaching, he clapped his hands and danced on his feet in excitement, biting his lower lip before excitedly waving to Sunset as she got closer.
David was able to set up a little spot with a bed in the girl’s cabin where Sunset would be bunking with Gwen. It wasn’t personal, just some pillows and bedsheets for her with her uniform lying on top, “Perfect!” He said, walking out to join her in the mess hall. He figured a little coffee wouldn’t hurt him for the moment.
David went in the mess hall, ruffling the hair of the children who were too tired to swat his hand away before he grabbed a cup of coffee from the corner and took a seat next to the other, “Whatcha think? Met any of my precious kids, yet?” Precious wasn’t exactly an accurate word, but it showed that David loved them like they were his own, “Here! I brought you a list of the camps we offer so you can see what activities you want to work on on your first day!”
Sunset looked over the activity list with a small hum, looking back at David with a sheepish grin. “Oh wow, that’s… a lot of activities. I’m not even sure I’ll be able to figure out what suits me today.” She said with a chuckle, digging into her meal. “How long have you been a counselor here anyways?”
“That’s alright, Sunset! Just pick from the top five or ten, then. No need to rush.” David smiled, taking a seat next to her, “How Long… hm… I guess I was just a regular counselor for about a year and I got promoted to head counselor this year before I took control of the business. Two summers, I suppose.” He grinned brightly, “And I don’t regret a second of it.”
“Really? Judging from the way you act, I’m surprised you didn’t own the camp before this year.” Sunset said, taking a swig of her coffee. She rubbed her eyes tiredly before she gave David a small smile. “Where do you live? Or do you just stay here year round?”

“Really? I’ve… never really looked into it before. What did you have in mind?”
“Well, firstly what kind of shampoos are you using?” Adagio asked. “Many on the market that make curly hair less curly. They iron it out. Believe it or not, you can get a cleaner wash with just cold water and conditioner sometimes unless you’re getting out actual dirt. If your hair is relatively clean there’s no need for shampoo everyday. It can actually flatten your hair.”
Sunset’s eyes seemed to cross upwards as she twirled the little tuft of hair located near her forehead. She looked at Adagio withba sheepish expression before saying, “Well… don’t kill me, but I… IusetheManen’Tailshampoo…”
thewanderingsunset: “Sweeeet! Any ideas on what we can do? Rob a bank? Blow up an orphanage? Blow up some credit card companies and destabilize an economy and watch them burn as the try to pick up the peices?”
“We can do all of them! Ooh, ooh! But can we blow up the bank too? I have a ton of explosives, way more than enough, maybe!”
“I like the way you think, Dem!” Sunset said, throwing an arm around the woman. “But now that I think about it, do we wanna go in guns blazing or do it nice and subtle and then BAM?”
