((this is a restart of an old thread of mine))The sun is just setting behind the ocean and foamy waves are lapping lazily at the sand, leaving wavy patterns along it. Just out of the water's reach is a great big bonfire surrounded by driftwood logs for seating. Someone is setting out a fresh bag of marshmallows and spreading out towels bhind the logs for anyone who wants to lay down.
Come on over and join in the toasting and ghost stories.

*Walks across the sand and makes her way toward Nierme who she had just spotted.* Hey Nie!  Great bonfire you got going here.

*looks up and, seeing who it is, waves*
Hey Rain! Glad you could join us this evening. Wanna help me find some more sticks to toast marshies on while we wait for everyone?

*(is trying to find a way to enter : She was walking along the shore, feeling the cool sea water on her legs, holding a small sea shell in her hand. It is one of those queer ones, which you can hear the sea when you put them up to your ear. Still hearing the sound, she stumbles over a log lying on the sand; it was probably carried in by the tide. Gets up and notices a fire burning not too far away. She decides to just go over and see who is there. As she approaches, she notices Nie, Rain and Emma and runs up to them*
Hey!
*looks at the fire*
A bonfire! Cool! Anything I can do to help?

*grins*
Hey Emma! Glad you found us. We're just having a bonfire camp out thing for the fun of it.
Hermi, glad you could make it too. You can put the big pot over there onto the hot coals I've set slightly aside so we have loads of hot chocolate for everyone if you like.

*Smiles at the arrival of more people and then turns and says to Nierme* I'd Love to get some sticks Nie.
*Starts searching around in the sand, but is dismayed to see that there are no sticks around for marshmallow roasting. She straigtens herself, frowning.* Um, maybe I'll head up the dunes where there are some more trees.

Right! Gryffindors do know how to make good hot chocolate.
*she transfigures a rock into a pot and brings the stuff she needs to make hot chocolate from her bag.(One must never go anywhere without chocolate. ;D) She sets to making it*

True. But, the fresh breeze you feel by the sea is very cool and refreshing.
OOC: It's true. I always feel like that. That and getting my glasses sprayed with the spray. 
BIC: *pours some hot chocolate into a mug she gets out of her bag with the Hogwarts crest on it and gives it to Emma*
That should help you feel better.
Come an' get your hot chocolate!!

*Comes back from the dunes, a pile of sticks in her hand. She systematically pokes them in the fire and smiles as the bonfire roars.*
Oh, some hot cocoa for me please Hermoine, if you wouldn't mind.

*hands her a mug just like Emma's with delicious hot cocoa*
You know, I found this big log earlier...you think it might be good for the fire?

*Takes the mug of teaming liquid chocolate but puts it down carefully when she hears Hermoine's question.* Yea, that looks like a good size...could someone help me feed it into the bonfire please? It looks a bit big...

[Cally, who had just come from the lake after a rather amusing round of "Poke the Squid!", approached the bonfire. She shifted her driftwood walking stick to her left hand and gave the group a wave.]
Hey there, I thought I smelled chocolate.
[She tosses the driftwood off to the side and hoists the log up by one arm before tossing into the bonfire. Embers fly up into the nightsky like a swarm of fireflies, carried away by the wind before their light dissapears. Cally dusts her palms off on her jeans and plops down into the sand with a grin.]
That better? How is everyone doing tonight?

Hey Cally! Thanks for hoisting that log in the fire.
Would you like some hot chocolate?
