r&r&r [open mingle]

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.

[ Walked himself right into that corner. ] That's kinda hard to say? I'm from a galaxy that's not this one, I know that much. We would travel between planets and systems... I mostly grew up on ships. [ He shrugs because that's not an entirely weird thing in his galaxy. ]

[righthandstand]

Isn't that bad for your bones? I saw a documentary about astronauts, and they said that staying out in space for too long ruins your bones or something.

[He's pretty sure that's how it works. He hopes he remembered that right.]

[hatejakku]

[ Finn has got to get used to the weird directions this guy takes conversations. What's he on about now? ]

I- No? Not as far as I know. Do you know why your... astronauts said that? [ He's never heard that term before either. ]

[righthandstand]

It has to do with biology. [If only Koichi were here to explain it...Man, he misses having a smart friend.] Something with gravity, I think...

[hatejakku]

The gravity? The ships I was on were able to keep the same gravity as most planets. There was no worry about that sort of thing. I do know what you're talking about now, though.

[righthandstand]

So the gravity pointed to the middle of the ship or to the floor?

[He's seen movies that do it differently, and while he won't understand the science behind it, it gives him a better picture of where Finn grew up.

Slowly, they are coming closer to the hot spring resort.]

[hatejakku]

The floor. [ And Finn's full-on smiling now. Okuyasu wasn't so bad after all. He seemed okay. ] You guys do a lot of space exploration where you're from? [ Because apparently some people here never left their planet. It sounded really nice.

And yes, he's very happy to finally see the hot springs now. ]

[righthandstand]

Nah. Some people got to the moon, but that's it.

[Okuyasu can probably shut up once he has something else to focus on.]

So that does mean you're from the future.

[hatejakku]

Maybe I am. Since I've never heard of Earth, it's hard to say. It kind of makes sense, though.

[ Maybe they're all from the same place but a different time. Plausible enough. ]

Looks like we're here. Finally.
