"So... Wash... How's it hangin'?" Carolina asked. Wash raised an eyebrow, slightly suspicious, but nodded.
"I'm doing well. Why?"
"Nothing, nothing. You just really need help."
"Help? Help with what?"
"Tucker."
"Not you too!" Wash yelled, attracting the attention of Grif and Simmons.
"What are you two nerds ranting about now?" Grif asked, wanting a distraction from the previous event.
"About how Wash needs to talk about his feelings." Carolina rushed out before Wash could cover her mouth.
"Easy. Just use a pick up line. 'Hey boy, are you the Terms and Conditions, because I don't give a crap about what you have to say'." Grif said without hesitation.
Wash facepalmed as the others joined in on it as well.
"Hey baby, did it hurt when you fell? Because you look like shit." York added.
"Hey dude, remember when I kissed you? Neither do I, so let's do it." Simmons sarcastically said.
"... That one is actually kinda cute." Wash mumbled, then realized what he was saying and shook his head, saying, "No. No. No. I am not doing this right now."
"Fine, but I'm only retreating because I I need to take a bath. How does the hot water work around here?" Carolina asked, looking toward York.
"Uhh, it works, but you have to turn the boiler on first. Let me get this fire going and I'll go with ya."
Carolina nodded, then suddenly paused.
"Where's Tucker?"
The group exchanged glances, shrugging. Wash spoke up:
"He said he was gonna find a Ouija board. I have no idea why."
"If he went to the basement, he's in the right place. I've got a couple games down there."

Once York got a fire going, Simmons found out that his bag was missing. Grif swore that Locus would've taken it, but Simmons tried to be rational. The two left the building, which left Tucker, Wash, Carolina and York.
Wash went to go find Tucker, not to secretly make up with him as York wanted.
Carolina and York headed to the boiler room, trying to set up hot water.
"Why the hell is there a baseball bat?" Carolina mused as she held up the old wooden item. York chuckled, but still had a sad look in his eyes.
"It's... It's Kimball and Doyle's... We used to play out in the snow a whole lot because when you fell, it was like a soft pillow... Man, I miss those days."
Carolina nodded in understanding, and put the bat back.
"You know... I'm kinda glad you got everyone together. I think it's healthy to get out into nature every once in a while..."
"Thanks. I know that at least I need it."
Thump.
Carolina and York jumped as the sound rang out through the basement.
"What was... I'm going to check it out." Carolina whispered, heading down the hallway. York reluctantly followed, unsure about this.
Carolina cautiously approached the hallway, when a cloaked figure appeared, jumping out of nowhere and reaching to grab her arm.
"Run!" Carolina yelled, pushing York to force him to keep up. The two jumped over various objects on the floor, running up the stairs to get to the door. Carolina reached for the knob, turned it, but it was locked. She cursed and slammed her shoulder into the door, panicking.
"Why the hell is everything locked?!"
"To... To keep out strangers!" York yelled back, bracing himself for some sort of punishment as the cloaked figure approached them.
Laughter from underneath the hood was soon followed, but no physical beating.
"What..." Carolina tried to catch her breath, "What the hell?"
"Heh... Heyyyyyy~" the figure smirked, and took off its hood to reveal a smug-looking Tucker.
"You... You!-" Carolina could think of words to express how angry she was, while York just laughed it off.
"That. Was. Amazing."
"Were... Were you in on this shit too?!"
"No, but I wish I was!" York chuckled as he highfived Tucker.
Fucking assholes.
The group made their way upstairs, Tucker laughing hysterically the whole time. Once they made it to the top, Wash had looked to see the commotion when he spotted Tucker.
"What are you wearing?"
"I've joined the Dark side."
"Oh good, when will you be able to shut the fuck up? Because I can't wait long enough for lava to screw you over."
Carolina highfived Wash, looking as smug as ever.
"Whatever, let's get this party started!" Tucker cheered as he took out the Ouija board. Carolina rolled her eyes, and began walking upstairs.
"I'm going to take a nice bath and not look like a child, thank you very much. Don't die, have a good night." Carolina hollered from up top.
