It was perhaps the single most irrational thing to cause him to take a trip when he rarely ever took one. However, for someone wanting to major in multimedia, being given a chance to join other hardcore fans in asking their favorite actors questions about them and the sets they worked on was something they shouldn't pass up on. Though his interest was perhaps only bested by Angel, who came with his cosplay outfit (and a very convincing one at that!). Maybe he was expected to wear one too, but if he had one, he was remaining fairly tight-lipped about it. Bailey meanwhile seemed enamored with snapping pictures of almost every place they visited.<br/><br/>It was honestly cute having to stop alot so she could take pictures of just about everything that caught her fancy, from barns to bird nests. Taking a road trip with the two of them was a very interesting experience for him... One he was sure he was going to remember.<br/><br/>Perhaps there was more to this trip than he wanted to admit. The two he happened to he driving had been friends for so long that part of him hoped they could be more than friends. Were he a more persistent person, maybe he would have taken an interest in Bailey like that... Though at the same time he would have felt like little more than a third wheel. At least like this, he was a wheel man for his friends getting them to their destination while fulfilling one or more of his own goals. He couldn't ask for anything more than that! Though maybe a little less trouble... Getting the two of them through border guards had been a worrying experience for him, but thankfully the pair managed to finslly earn their way through, and arguably the most (if not one of them) difficult part(s) of their journey was behind them.<br/><br/>Everything that followed next were things that Chris had gotten used to seeing during yhe trip: learning how to balance their time as their female friend had grand goals to immortalize every view she came upon with her trusty camera. Shortening their plans to just the falls, Chris had to fight back the urge to picture himself cliff diving off the Niagra, primarily because ontop of how dangerous that was going to be, he was pretty sure it was illegal too. Besides, that was something you went to go do in other parts of the world, so long as you surveyed what you were jumping into first... But that was neither here nor there for their present moment. Letting Bailey snap a few pictures, they enjoyed their remainder of the views of the Niagra Falls before moving on to the Butterfly Conservatory. Unlike their female friend, who got lucky to have one land on her head Chris did not seem to have the right amount of stillness to have one land upon him. Maybe Bailey just had a gift with nature... He'd honestly believe it at this point.<br/><br/>The trio's detour at a wishing well was a bit of a surprise, and though he was quick to fish his own coin free to wish with, Bailey's offer and insistence to use hers was a kind gesture... But what could he wish for? There was so much he wanted in life... But it would have been selfish to focus on just his needs. There were two others with him... And damn it, they were going to be as happy as he was. Concentrating on his wish, he flipped the coin into the Well alongside the others before it was time to be on their way.<br/><br/><em>"No end to the fun on this trip."</em>Chris found himself thinking as he continued their drive... Next stop was their hotel, and what a trip there it had been. Between some yahoo causing an accident and leaving only one lane working, the choked traffic was real. Thankfully a little patience saw them getting to their hotel relatively on time and able to check in. They had two rooms to them, side by side with doors open to have much more space between them, though Chris potentially saw it as an opportunity for Angel to try and connect more with Bailey... However, whether anything happened or not, he would never know as he was one of the first to pass out in the middle of the night. His dreams were simple things, nothing beyond a few nerd-like occurences such as him meeting his television heroes or even finding himself in their universes. Although there was one dream that seemed to be him and two others that looked familiar... Though before he could ponder it and see who they were, he found himself waking up... To the next morning already? He sat up, rubbing the back of his head and yawning, before a familiar face strolled into the room a moment later, seemingly expectant.<br/><br/>"Morning, Bailey... Where's the fire?" He asked, noting she was fully dressed while he was... Still lacking pants under the covers. As much as he wanted to get up now, he wasn't sure if he was entirely comfortable with flashing his boxers to his friend. That would have been disrespectful... "Am I the last one awake?"
