You get a graham cracker, split it in half, put some chocolate on one half, put the marshmallow on top of that, and then put the other half on top to make a sandwich!

[she does exactly that as she talks, to demonstrate.]

See?

[battling]

Like one of those fancy biscuits, just with more layers.

[He will follow right along and puts the whole thing into his mouth.]

[wtfox]

Yeah, kind of like that!

[she giggles! and takes more delicate bites of her s'more. it's fine.

once she's chewed and swallowed - ]

What do you think?

[battling]

[he will not talk until he's finished swallowing his cookie.]

Real sweet. Ain't bad~

[wtfox]

I'm glad you like it! They're a classic snack in autumn.

[battling]

For real? Ain't like anythin' in these is seasonal.

[wtfox]

No, but they're best made over fire, and bonfires are kind of an autumn thing!

[battling]

Seem like they'd be good in winter too.

[wtfox]

Probably! But I think a lot of people do them in autumn because it's just cold enough that the fire is nice, but not so cold that you want to go inside, like it sometimes is during winter.

[battling]

[He looks confused at the idea of being cold for a full moment.]

Oh right, humans.

[wtfox]

You don't get cold?

[battling]

Call it a passive perk of bein' a wizard.

[wtfox]

I'm kind of jealous!

[battling]

Should be! 's useful.

[wtfox]

Too bad I can't learn to be one...

[battling]

Didn't ya say humans have things only they can do? What happened t' that?

[wtfox]

That still applies! But never having to worry about the cold is a different matter! Do you know how many people die of cold every day, in less privileged countries...? If humans could do that, they wouldn't suffer as much.

[battling]

People die all of the time, for all sorts of reasons, in all sorts of countries. Poor or rich. Whichever.

[wtfox]

...well, yeah, but... there's something about it that just feels wrong when it could be preventable...

[battling]

Think one person can prevent all sufferin'? Let that weigh on ya and you'll collapse under the weight of it.

[wtfox]

Who knows? Maybe I'll get lucky and walk out of this school with a wish. Wouldn't that be something?

[battling]

One of those peace, love and justice types?

Alright. How far would ya go for your goals?

[wtfox]

[she looks kind of startled by that question - so that's how he'd fill in the blank, huh...?]

Well, I mean... if it's something I care about enough to make it a goal, I'd see it through until the very end. Otherwise, it wouldn't be a goal, right? I definitely wouldn't give up on it halfway!

[battling]

If there were people in your way? What would you do against opposition?

No matter what ya try t' do, there's always gonna be somebody who'll be blockin' your path.

[wtfox]

[her brow furrows as she considers that. she is 14 and what is this.]

I guess I'd... try to convince them to see things my way? I mean, maybe we can both achieve our goals if we work together?
