Who: Fitz & open
What: Getting the lay of the land
When: Early August
Where: around the Clipper
Warnings: tba if needed

Fitz is well aware that it says something about his lifestyle that the Clipper reminds him of several places he's ended up over the years. On the other hand, being chained in a dank basement would also remind him of many places he's been over the years, so he generally figures it's not worth thinking about. The familiarity isn't a good thing - and the lack of cigarettes, drinks or a fudging door just rub in a short list of what he hates about it. But it does stop any particular outbursts of anger. He's not resigned to it, so he keeps his cool.

For the most part, he goes through the motions of playing along. He slouches, half-asleep in the common room during singalong, wincing occasionally. He reads in an overly comfortable chair, trying not to roll his eyes too often at the content. He tries to find someone to sit with during meals, and even actually enjoys the bathhouse. But, while he usually can't muster up actual cheer, there is a certain focus under the surface, which can be rare to see in him.

He's also doing his best to keep an eye on his friends, to see how they're handling it all. After all, part of 'familiar' also means knowing how much it sucks to play along - and some of the consequences to failing to play the part.

Louise squawks in surprise, her arms pinwheeling as she bounces, rolling off of her own volition.

"Holy heck." She mutters to herself, and rushes over to Fitz to tackle him around his kneecaps.

Louise lets herself be picked up and rolls into a ball, tucking in her knees and holding her arms over them.

"Throw me! Throw me like a basketball!"

She lands on her back, upside down, stretching out like a cat.

"Oh my god, you're such an idiot." She says, but it's fond. Even Louise knows (vaguely) how basketball works.

"Otherwise you'll throw children around. Got it." Says Louise. Sarcastic to the end.

"Doesn't seem pretty mad to me. Unless you do it Frankenstein style, over bridges."

"Oh my god." Louise mutters under her breath.

"You're not mad at all. You're just dumb." She covers her face with her hands. "Super disappointed right now."

"Because planes flap their wings." So dry.

"How many times have you SEEN a plane?"

"Hah! I beat you. I've seen them seventeen bajillion times."
