Tommy had chuckled at Oz’s comment about the dick-measuring contest, and then grinned when Finn and Sa’Cha insisted he stop teasing Shelby. [color=Thistle]“Yeah!”[/color] she nodded repeatedly, arms crossed. [color=Thistle]“You should stop teasing me!”[/color] [color=LimeGreen]“But you’re too cute when you’re embarrassed!”[/color] he replied playfully. [color=Thistle]“I am [i]not[/i] embarrassed!”[/color] she insisted. [color=Thistle]“I have [i]nothing[/i] to be embarrassed about!”[/color] [color=LimeGreen]“Relax, I’m just messing with you,”[/color] the dark-haired boy said after another chortle, pulling her into a one-armed shoulder-to-shoulder hug and kissing her on the forehead. [color=LimeGreen]“I’ll quit teasing you now, ya big crybaby.”[/color] [color=Thistle]“Yeah, well you’re a big [i]jerk,[/i]”[/color] she added, crossing her arms again and looking away, chin up. But then she turned back and grinned. [color=Thistle]“But you’re lucky you’re a [i]cute[/i] jerk!”[/color] After Helia had inquired about the purpose of the day’s event, Shelby was the first to reply. [color=Thistle]“There are so many awesome things going on at the Museum today!”[/color] she explained excitedly. [color=Thistle]“We’re heading there to help out with a fundraiser to save the place from being closed down. And like Finn said, he made baked nummies!”[/color] [color=fff79a]“So, do you got any ‘special’ brownies in your stash, Finn?”[/color] Bulk asked quietly with a grin as his head popped back up over the seat. [color=fff79a]“What, you mean ‘special’ like my grandmother’s cookies?”[/color] Skull inquired as he chewed the gum in his mouth loudly. Bulk just rolled his eyes. [color=fff79a]“No, you dolt,”[/color] he replied, shaking his head. He leaned in and whispered in Skull’s ear, after which the other boy’s eyes grew wide. [color=fff79a]“Duuuuuude!”[/color] he said excitedly to Finn, a bit too loud. [color=fff79a]“If you got weed goodies, fork ‘em over, twerp!”[/color] [color=fff79a]“Ixnay on the grasstalk!”[/color] Bulk barked angrily in a hushed tone when he noticed Miss Morgan glancing in their direction. The two punks then dropped back down and were quiet the rest of the drive. [color=Crimson]“Hey everyone!”[/color] Karone called out, holding up her phone, which had the Twitch app open. She then flashed a toothy smile. [color=Crimson]“Say hi to the chat! We have seven thousand people watching right now!”[/color] Shelby let out a squeal of protest and dropped down out of sight of the camera. [color=Thistle]“I [i]really[/i] hate that girl...”[/color] [center]_______________________________________ _______________________________________ _______________________________________[/center] As the bus turned off the main highway, they could see the Museum at the other end of a winding road. There were dozens of vehicles finding their way into the parking lot, and quite a few tented stalls had been set up throughout the forested grounds surrounding the main building. [img]https://i.imgur.com/HLB5M6s.jpg[/img] [img]https://i.imgur.com/K53oHWi.png[/img] [img]https://i.imgur.com/sPcz089.jpg[/img] [img]https://i.imgur.com/L3GozvR.jpg[/img] As the students began exiting the vehicle once it had parked, the white box truck that had been following them pulled into the lot as well. The driver hopped out and slid open the back rolling door as Tommy and the others walked up to help unload the supplies for the event. [color=fff79a]“Hey guys, how was the ride?”[/color] the older man asked. He looked to be in his mid-to-late-forties, well-built, and covered in tattoos. Many of the teens thought he was the coolest teacher at Angel Grove High, and he had been a beloved local celebrity back when he was a student there in the nineties. [img]https://i.imgur.com/tyfqjeN.jpg[/img] [color=Crimson]“It was [i]stellar[/i], Mr. Oliver!”[/color] Karone replied happily before anyone else could. [color=Crimson]“I had over seven thousand viewers on my stream before Miss Morgan made me turn it off!”[/color] [color=fff79a]“That’s… [i]impressive!”[/i][/color] he replied. [color=Crimson]“It [i]totes[/i] is!”[/color] she agreed wholeheartedly while Shelby looked at the others and made a silent puking motion. Soon they were loading up their supplies - including Finn’s baked goods - from the shelves and cabinets inside the truck onto carts and wheeling them to the row of tents that had been allotted to them. Before their stalls opened for business, the teen volunteers were taken on a quick tour of the facility, which included a restaurant called the [i]Dino Bite Cafe.[/i] [img]https://i.imgur.com/aIv0t8Q.png[/img] [img]https://i.imgur.com/10S4Ml9.jpg[/img] (the episode linked below also gives a good look at the Museum and Cafe) [youtube]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1K9Ajvgiz5I[/youtube]
