"Hey, G, can I talk to you?" Aiden pops his head through the window, making all the girls of Honeycomb recoil in disgust.
"Whoa! Whoa!"
"Hey! Out, out."
"It is my head." Aiden tries to defend himself.
"I'll allow it." Gadget shrugs, rolling her eyes at her friend's antics.
"Now I need to come in the rest of the way."
"You got two minutes. Go." Gadgets says, letting the boy into the yurt. He walks in to reveal the bouquet of wild flowers that he had picked for his girlfriend.
"Aw!"
"Sorry to barge in." Aiden says, pulling Gina to the side so they can talk.
"Love is an open door." Gina says, gratefully taking the bouquet.
"I knew you'd get the lead. You're a star."
"Thank you. That means...Yeah, that means a lot." Gina giggles in excitement, "Weirdly, it means even more that EJ wasn't in charge of the cast list, you know? No bias or anything. All these years trying to figure out how to be okay with 'just enough' or 'almost in the spotlight, but not quite'." Aiden smiles fondly at the girl, "Yeah, I'm the lead. And it feels so good, and I counted the number of songs and the number of lines, and then Elsa may get Let It Go. But I honestly believe Anna has a bigger arc and is more challenging to play. But in, like, a good way."
"Well, i'm really happy for you. I know that you'll do amazing, even with that loser EJ directing the production."
"I'm going to tell him you said that!" Andrea calls out from across the room, finishing up her packing for Newbie Night.
"Mind your own business, Andy!" Aiden says to his cousin, making his girlfriend laugh at their antics. "Really, i'm happy for you."
"So, are you coming to Newbie Night? Perfect time to cuddle up by the campfire."
Aiden looks at the girl sadly before shaking his head. "None of the guys in my yurt are newbies so they are allowed to hang back, which a lot of them are, so I need to stay back with them."
"Oh..."
"There will be other times for us to hang out. I'll make sure of it."
"Ding, ding. And that's two minutes, Meathead."

"You know I'm a feminist, right?" Gina and Andrea give each other a side glance.
"Mmm, right."
"I like all women."
"Mmm-hmm." Andrea hums in response as they approach the tent, glance at Gina curiously once again.
"Almost all of the women, I like."
"Where is this going?" Gina finally asks, placing her bags un the tent.
