Who: Come one, come all! [open mingle]
When: July 8th, mid-afternoon
Where: Hot springs in the Myste Aura mountains
What: A much-needed restful retreat. Maybe a little fun.
Warnings/Notes: Flirting and teasing possible, with a reminder to keep things PG-13 (swimsuits on please!)


Myste Aura's mountains could be imposing to the uninitiated, but they also hid a great many wonderful secrets. One of those, Tidus had discovered, was the abundance of hot springs perfect for unwinding after a tough battle or game. Everyone had had a difficult month, so why not invite them over?

He knew none of the others had much experience in this city or its mountains, so he offered to meet the group in a central location and walk them up. It wasn't too difficult of a hike, and once they arrived they would find chilled shower stalls to each side and three springs for their use: two segregated and one co-ed.

In other words, the perfect setting for a day of rest and relaxation.

[ Two good things: 1) Ena knew Tidus, and 2) he'd moved to Myste Aura before her. She was taking a job here and would need to get herself a place sooner or later. Who better to ask than an acquaintance that lived in the area? (the answer was a real estate agent, but that was irrelevant)

She she spots Tidus ahead and currently unoccupied with anyone else, she quickens her pace to stride up next to him. ] Greetings, Tidus. [ She's just slightly out of breath. ] I haven't seen you in a while. How've you been?

[zanarkandian]

Ena, hey! Glad you could make it.

[He grins and waits for her to catch up.]

I'm good! Things are looking up with the team, and my new apartment's pretty nice. How about you?

[rivieran]

I'm doing all right. Thank you for asking. [ a small smile in return ] I'm actually taking a job at the library here in Myste Aura, so I'm hoping to move to the area soon.

[zanarkandian]

Oh, hey! That's great. I definitely wouldn't mind stopping by your library again.

[He smiled brightly, then continued.]

I'm here if you need any help moving, or if you want to take a tour. I like it here, even if it isn't the fanciest place.

[rivieran]

That would be lovely, Tidus. I will be sure to let you know when I plan on making the move.

[ Not the fanciest place, though? Ehhh... ] I was just going to ask you if you liked it here. Whereabouts are you living now? What is your house like?

[zanarkandian]

Most of the housing seems to be near the waterfront. It's all pretty simple, wood on stilts, because they've had to rebuild after floods a few times. But you can't beat the view, and the bathrooms have huge baths if that's your kind of thing.

[Gotta keep those Zora and Hypello feeling well, after all.]

Everyone's been pretty nice, though!

[rivieran]

Hmm. [ Ehhh... after her last experience underwater, Ena wasn't too thrilled to hear about that, but what could she do about it? She wasn't to excited to hear about the simple housing either, but she would just have to make do. Oh well. ]

Well, that's nice to hear. [ She wouldn't want to deal with a rude population, after all. ] So, whereabouts is your apartment located, then? Is it also on the waterfront?

[zanarkandian]

It's a little further up, near the gym my team uses. I'm always ready to head up there at a moment's notice.

They'd probably give you one near the library, and it should be inland. They don't want the books to get flooded, y'know?

[rivieran]

I suppose that makes sense. I take it your team is sponsoring your house then?

[ ... ]

Because I don't think the library is for me. But you're right. I don't want to be flooded, either. [ Especially since she can't swim. ]
