Disneyland [Day One]

After the surprise welcome at the airport, shuttle buses transported all of the Fandomites and their unexpected guests to the Paradise Pier Hotel where they were able to check in and unpack if they wanted before hitting up the parks.

It was an excellent day for Disneyland with an expected high of 80, a mostly sunny day and a slim chance of a rain shower.

[WAIT ~~they don't love you like I love you~~ ~~for the~~ OCD is UP Have fun :D!]

Spotting John from a bit away, Gavin started towards him, Tex hanging off his hand and babbling happily as they walked.

"This doesn't seem quite your scene," he said by way of greeting, ignoring Tex's pull on his hand.

"Oh, I'm all about the bouncing," John disagreed, taking in the kid and his hat. "Lemme guess, spawn of Texan sheriff's daughters?"

"Tex!" Tex provided cheerfully, Southern drawl on display. "I'ma a cowboy!"

"How'd you guess?" Gavin asked, rolling his eyes. "He found me in the airport. Why does this crap always happen to me?"

"Hey, Tex!" John grinned. "Because you make really poor decisions about who you sleep with?"

"Um, that his mother," Gavin pointed out, grateful that Tex seemed to be looking at the Bounce House with quiet awe. "And she was hot. So, shut up, Hair Boy."

"How is his mom? You guys keep in touch?" John asked, working really hard not to show any sign that he knew.

"Mama's great!" Tex interjected, pushing his hat up on his head and bouncing some. "She's done gone busy this weekend. I'ma big boy though! I go places on my own!"

Gavin just glared again. "Just remember where he was conceived." Oh yeah, John, IN YOUR CAR.

"Please tell me I set that car on fire in the kid's reality," John said, making a face of disgust.

Satisified by that reaction, Gavin grinned. "I'm sure I've told Tex that story before, haven't it?"

Tex nodded, hat flopping on his head. "Pa says the car was fulla magic!"

"And I just might have to burn it in this reality," John said, still not able to really smile. "So you live on Earth?"

"Sometimes," Tex answered, still staring at the Bounce House. "Sometimes we live onna farm!"

He didn't really get the Earth is different from farms distinction.

"And I'm sure I have a guest room just for you, John," Gavin said. "Complete with all those romantic movies you love and study."

"Thanks, Gav," John said, eyes showing his appreciation. "You're making me rethink inviting you to visit me sometime."

"Don't you live in a crazy house?" Gavin asked, finally just nudging Tex towards the Bounce House so he could play and not just look at it longingly.

Right, John remembered he was 'watching' a kid himself. "No using the Force to bounce higher!"

He turned back to Gavin, "Maybe a crazy apartment. Train's right up against it, so it gets pretty loud."

"Why'd you pick there to live?" he asked, flopping into a seat gratefully and watching Tex as he bounced.

"Eh, close to school and the train. There was a guy, Mitch who was looking for a roommate and he seemed nice enough. Now I know I should have standards that include not sleeping with my pillow-come-to-life." Poor John.

"...what?" Gavin asked, blinking. Had he heard this story? He didn't think so.

"Jesus, we have not talked. It was like, six months ago? No, more like two by Fandom time," John started. "Anyway, my pillow turned into a petite blonde and hooked up with my roommate for two weeks."

"Oh god, did you burn the pillow?" Gavin asked, grimacing. "Salt, burn and then throw the ashes down the toilet?"

John laughed. "Nah, I gave it to him to keep, not that I explained why." Because ew, no, wrong.

"At least you didn't take it back," Gavin said, grateful for that at least. "Nothing of mine turned into anything. Well, nothing inanimate."

He himself was another story.

"How was uh..." he did some mental math, "last week? Do anything fun?"
