There was something heavy about deciding to stay in a park, but Blue Berry told himself it would just be for a few days, until he got on this feet, until he had enough to put a roof over his head. That didn't make him a hobo....just temporarily homeless? That wasn't much better... An adventurer! A camper? Squatter? Whatever, better not to dwell on it.
How had he ended up here? He had once been in the rich city of Monte Vista, living in the center of a caramel warm buildings and tropical climate, but he had followed a gut impulse, he needed to make a way on this own, somehow the bus had taken him here, to Hidden springs, a town of lush green nature.
A dog? Blue was rather uncertain about interacting with strange animals, but this one seemed at home here, and if he was going to stay he would have to try to be nice right? Would it bite?
Thankfully it didn't!
Feeling a little safer Blue took his gear out, he only had a sleeping bag, some matches and a fishing pole.
Blue's traits are Neurotic, Loves outdoors, Green thumb, Ambitious and Loner. So he was enjoying his solitude.
Not quite complete solitude. The dog was still hanging around and had brought him an amazing gift, newspaper! He didn't have mind to read it, but it would make an excellent fire starter.
When he thanked the dog he was able to see it wore an old collar under all of its fluff, the tag said "Zeke"
First night sleeping outdoors, of course it was raining
At least they had a nice warm fire to curl up by
The rain had made for a miserable night but they woke up to an amazing rainbow
Blue decided to start the day off by trying to fish again, his stomach was already growling
Success!
He was able to cook his fish in no time, he felt pretty proud of himself. His belly was full, the sun was bright, he decided to take a mid day nap to reward himself
He forgot that the sun was quite strong and he hadn't gotten any sunscreen, he roasted himself like he roasted the fish.
Life outside was going to be rough.
