Brian was really digging this place, a whole lot more than he'd thought. He'd loved scouting, but most of his friends there had stopped going or moved after reaching Eagle. As much as it embarrassed him to say, he didn't go to scouts too often, because there wasn't much for him to do now. He'd said he was busy just so they wouldn't try sucking him in. But Alex and the others he met didn't really care. They were cool just hangin' with Brian while he was there.
"So, y'all go on skiing trips? That must cost a lot..." Brian asked.
"Not really. See, we've got several adult members who sponsor our trips. We have a lot of adults in the Sharing, too. They come for the company, too, but also for the business networking and stuff like that. If we need any extra money on top of that, we do car washes and stuff." Alex started laughing a little, then started holding her gut, laughing harder.
"What?"
"I'm just remembering the last Car Wash we did.... Oh, good times......" She continued laughing, and eventually stopped. "People come here just to hang out, so it's always a blast doing anything here. You should come with us next weekend! We're going to the beach for a back to school party!"
"Actually, I just got back from the beach..." Brian told her about the cruise he'd just gone on. Leaving out the important parts, of course. Alex sounded interested, and really listened, asking questions and all that. He looked at the clock. Wow, I've been here a whole hour? He looked for Benjamin... where was he?

<Maybe she couldn't get out tonight. But let's wait a little while longer before we go. Any ideas of what we're going to do once we're in?> Sean asked. He was much better at restraining the excited squirrel mindset now. He did, however, continue running back and forth across the table. The squirrel didn't like sitting still. <Kristen suggested we get some large bird morphs, which would be smart. And we need some fire power, too. It's been ages since I've been here.... We'll have to shop around first. Hey Tarry, is there a limit on the number of morphs we can acquire?>
