Tuesday Night

[thatched]

"Love is an ice cream sundae, with all the marvelous coverings. Sex is the cherry on top."~Jimmy Dean

Tuesday Night

[originaldragoon]

Rose herself is making her way off the ship to go explore the island even though the locals did seem a little too friendly for her taste. Still she might as well get herself some supplies while she is here, and with the sun still up that means there's still time before any shops close.

[thatched]

Thatch is whistling as he wanders around, no specific goals in mind, but in a much better mood than he has been. There's something about pretty locals with flirting eyes that lifts a man's spirits, even more so when flirting eyes back gets demure giggles that just kicks his heart up a few notches.

After a while, he spots a somewhat face-- and smiles.

"Good evening, sweet lady." And since he doesn't know her very well yet: "May I escort you to wherever you're bound?" And he offers his arm.

[tactilelearner]

Her shopping from earlier in the day was loaded back on the ship.

Rogue had finally actually felt like shopping. So, with a bit of money and some company, she'd bought some make-up, a new pair of gloves, and a few clothes. No major purchases, but just a few things to settle in with.

Now, she was back on the island. Something about feeling solid ground under her feet without the need to fight.

It felt good.

It was approaching sundown, but Rogue wasn't too worried. She still had the ship in her sights, though, and she'd promised she wouldn't go further without company. Which she sort of hoped she'd get, just because she wanted to explore a little bit.

Tuesday Night

[booyaka_boom]

Selphie seems in a much better mood than she had done on the previous island. In fact, she looks back to more or less her usual cheery self. So she's happy to go exploring this new island, even taking a walk in the evening, enjoying her surroundings and smiling and singing to herself. Isn't this all just so sweet and perfect? Certainly, as the sun went down, Selphie was keenly aware of just how romantic this place was.

[bolincredible]

[ some awkward morning-after for Ikki, yo. ]

[ So, uh.

Well, that happened??

Actually, Bolin's not 100% sure what he's supposed to do with this. Not that Ikki's not a cool guy or anything, but. There are a lot of logistical problems with that happening in itself, because last time he checked, he wasn't into him, and then the last time he checked and was interested in someone, that someone was Opal. Still is Opal. Like, he's all about Opal, she's smart and beautiful and talented and amazing and great and if there weren't a whole mess of stuff going on back home to keep everyone busy, he is very positive they'd be holding hands and going on dates together all over the place. Because she's great.

Annnd it's probably good that she's not here because how would he even look her in the face right now. Wow.

That was just a lot more dude than he anticipated getting involved with. So Bolin sits up and tries to think of any way that this won't be super awkward, and fails, and tries again, and fails again, and looks over at Ikki and hopes that this doesn't mean they're dating??? ]

Uhhhh. [ uHH.... ] So that was nice? Like just to get that out there, I guess. Super unexpected and all, but, uh.

[ What's happening to his life he was so glad to be back with the crew is that wrong was this like a weird karmic sudden bout of romanticism to repay the debt??? He just kind of leans over to pick up his shirt and wonders at his life. ]

Wednesday Night

[thatched]

"'Sex' is as important as eating or drinking and we ought to allow the one appetite to be satisfied with as little restraint or false modesty as the other."~ Marquis de Sade

[haruta_xii]

[Thatch and Haruta, a random chance meeting. One of those wandering things that happen when you... wander. She's going around, no mask on, at the twilight, looking for... well, something.]

[She's tired looking, but smiling. Clearly much better then the day before. Running into Thatch she grinned, and before he could say ANYTHING about her wandering while sick, she held her hands up]

Doctors orders. I swear. [she mocked a old man voice as she said:] 'Go out. Be young. Smell the flowers. It'll do you good my extraordinary child. Find someone and enjoy.' [dropping her hands to her hips she smiled softly] I swear, it's what he said. Hello.

[om_nom_namur]

Okay, so shit got weird last night. But it should be fine to go out and play if he stays indoors, right? There's gotta be a club or at least a bar with some kind of music, even if it's the middle of the week. Like hell Namur's gonna stay on the ship. He wants to dance, damn it!

So he was on the prowl. Objective one: find music, which wasn't hard to do. His ears were a lot more sensitive than most people realized, and he was fine with that. Which left him objective two: someone to dance with. The locals were warming up a little bit, but still gave him a wide berth- especially as the day wound down closer to evening. He wondered if the damn flowers would come out again, hoped maybe they were a once a week kind of thing or something. In any case, he found a familiar scent mingled in with the lot, and began following it to the source.

Wednesday Night - Asami

[uccellodifuoco]

[It doesn't take much of a genius to figure that it is a good idea to get one of those gas masks after a first night on the island. Still, Ikki feels like an idiot, he should have suspected something when he noticed them on sale and buy one. But, no, he had supposed it was because there would be a cave or something that went deep enough and close areas with poisonous gas. Or just the fashion in the place. And as fashion nor poison matter much to him... He had ignored the masks.

To be honest, he can't fully complain, the previous night hadn't been exactly bad, just mostly awkward and totally new for him. Confusing as well. Still, he would have preferred if that kind of thing happened without external prompts. Especially not ones that cloud one's judgement.

This night, though, he is prepared. Mask in place and staying indoors should do the trick, right? Pity that his mask had been sabotaged to not work, though he has yet to notice that himself. Hopefully, the rest of the crew had gotten the memo and acquired gas masks. Anyway, Ikki ends trailing Asami's familiar Cosmos to ensure that she is safe and with a mask.]

[originaldragoon]

Another night on the island and there was no way Rose was going to spend it in town. She doesn't want another repeat of the night before. And since she stayed in town later than she intended, she doesn't have time to get back to the ship before the flowers start to bloom. That only leaves the nearby forest that surrounds the town and covers most of the island. Sure there are more flowers there, but at least she will be alone, and thus find a way to deal with the problem privately.

Before the sun starts to set, she heads into the forest. Once she feels she is far enough away from town she sits down, leaning back against a tree, and bracing herself for the effects of pollen to come.

[feetarestrange]

[She still remembers what happened the day before, and it's left Nami feeling a little restless. Because of that, she departs her pool and takes a little evening stroll around the ship. Someone to talk to, that's what she wants. But whether everyone is already asleep, or just in their rooms, she doesn't really find anyone who's also up and about.

The mermaid is just about to call it quits before she finally spots someone.]

Thatch?

What are you doing?

Thursday Night

[thatched]

"Sex is a part of nature. I go along with nature."~Marilyn Monroe

Thursday Night - Selphie

[uccellodifuoco]

[After yesterday's night... Ikki had reached a decision or maybe a determination. One time, he could forgive. Two times, though, were already too many, and as it seems that they aren't going to leave the stupid island yet... The least he can do is try to ensure that when night falls and that stupid flower does it thing, he will be with someone he may want to do it with.

Even if it's probably as much of a mistake as the previous nights. Part of him has been wanting to do it since... February, and though it isn't really right or possible... The island gives him a good excuse at the very least.

So for tonight, he doesn't get a mask and simply goes to find Selphie. Selphie, who is just a friend for him now. Selphie, who has a boyfriend, maybe at the other end of the world, but that still counts. Selphie, who probably has already been with someone before thanks to the island, and he's hoping that she was safe with Namur and nothing happened. Actually he tries to think that nothing happened with anyone and her.

Selphie, the girl who he still loves, so much that it hurts -and that's probably why back in Serenes his phoenix lashed at her, burning the love with hate-. The girl with whom he never wanted to break up with but who broke up with him to go with another guy. It's definitively a mistake, but if he's going to be on an island with such an effect, it would be a regret to not ensure that he's with her at least once.]

Friday Night

[thatched]

"Sex is emotion in motion"~Mae West

[om_nom_namur]

Friday was Haruta's day, and they'd made the most of it. Swimming, a little dancing, ceviche by the beach. Basically, it was the best damn day in the whole world. They'd decided to hang out at sea after sundown. As fun as it'd be to get that flower shit all up in their systems one last time, Namur felt like Haruta deserved better. Selfishly, he felt like he deserved better, too. Where's the fun in getting with a girl if you gotta cheat or trick her into it? But the flowers sometimes seemed to kind of glow, and their glittery pollen probably covered the island in some kind of sparkly haze, so they decided to watch the show from afar and whatever happened between them after sundown, well, they'd know it was genuine.

Namur checked that the ropes were clear, and that the smaller craft had enough space to drop down into the water without scraping either ship's hull, then held out his hand, webbed palm up, to help Haruta into the Little Dipper.

"She's clear, an' we only got a few more minutes 'til the lights start. Y' ready?"

[originaldragoon]

This time Rose wasn't taking any chances. She spent all of Thursday on the ship in order to avoid the effects of the pollen, but she was not one to be confined when there was land nearby. So on Friday, she ventured into town and purchased a thing called a gas mask, which was supposed to block out the pollen. The thing looked ridiculous but as long as it kept her sane throughout the night, she really didn't care how it made her look. Unfortunately for her, the mask she bought was tampered with.

It was well before sundown and she already had the mask on. She didn't want to risk losing track of time and be caught without it on when the flowers bloomed again. She ignored the odd looks she got as she walked the streets of town.

General Non-Smut Catchall

[thatched]

For all you who don't want to take part in the great she-bang, or just generally want to hang out on ship or in town with gas masks.

Namur Catchall

[om_nom_namur]

[Everyone is open to run into Namur anywhere during the day, but here is a general idea of where he'll be.

[Backdating to Monday evening Namur disappears from the ship again. He might have mentioned something about a date.]

[Tuesday during the day he'll seem kind of subdued, maybe a little more thoughtful than usual, but it won't take much to redirect his attention outward and bring him back around to his usual grumpily cheery self. Bringing the ship into port, exploring the town, making the most mature jokes using the island's indigenous flora, it's all good. Also looking for an actual doctor for Haruta.]

[Wednesday's a little awkward because whaaat the hell even happened the night before? That was out of nowhere and kind of weird. Still, there's shit to be done. He's gotta make a new rotation list, maybe check up on a few people in the crew to make sure they're okay, maybe cruise the town a little more, find a club or two. Hang out in the rain. It's all good.]

[By Thursday it's time to start laughing all this shit off. And try to make amends as needed. And really focus on getting the ships resupplied because damn this place is going to make everyone implode. Or explode. Or both. Either way he has a feeling they won't be sticking around much longer.]

[Friday he's spending with Haruta. With any luck she'll be back on her feet by then.]

Thatch Catchall

[thatched]

[Thatch will spend a great deal of time off the ship. But when he's on, usually sometime in the mid-afternoon, he'll be cheerful if somewhat tired looking, attending to one chore or another.

Feel free to run into him anywhere, and if you're so inclined share the rain with him]

Rogue cat

[tactilelearner]

30th, day:

Rogue spends the day shopping. The little village may not offer much, but she still browses their wares a fair bit. She finds a few sets of clothes, some make-up (powders, kohl, and a few paints for her lips and eyes), and a very nice pair of gloves.

She also spends a lot of time attempting to evade the natives' attempts to invade her personal space.

30th-1st, late night:

Rogue doesn't fall into the same easy, content sleep most of the others probably have if Namur was anything to base assumptions off. With the flowers' evening twilight effects fading and her own actions done... She's a little on edge and has taken to the shoreline to distance herself from the others and to give herself time to think.

She'll be a little jumpy and a little confused, but she isn't dangerous.

1st, early morning:

Rogue settles in near the shore where the boats are docked with her journal. The flowers nearby bloom in the morning twilight, and, well, that journal is what she uses when she falls under their sway.

She'll be there for about two hours. But after the sun's properly risen? She'll be gone.

Nami Catchall

[feetarestrange]

[Nami is, for now, staying on the ship, looking for just about anything that needs to get done. When she's not doing that, she'll be sitting over the ship's railing, watching as her fish friends break through the surface and jump up towards her.

They don't nearly reach Nami, but she's enjoying the sight regardless, laughing and clapping as the fish keep on trying.]

Haruta Catchall

[haruta_xii]

[She's pretty much out of it by time the boat comes to this island. Namur had to carry her off to find a doctor. When explained to the doctor what happened, he seemed to know a cure all for it, and stated that the white magic used was very good, because Haruta should have been dead by the next morning, not... alive this long later.]

[So, Tuesday she's at a little local doctors place, resting.]

[Wednesday she's walking again, laughing even. Haruta is weaker now, but able to move again. She's sticking nearer to town though, for a bit. The doctor says it would o her some good to walk out in the wilds though. And not to worry about the flowers, what ever that means. So she can be seen wandering, wondering, and trying to get her movement back to her. No longer ill feeling.]

[Thursday and Friday, between... meetings with people, are much of the same. She's not lethargic anymore, and she's going to be exploring a bit, but not too far from the ship. Come Friday she's more then ready to go, a bit tired but doing alright.]

bolin catchall

[bolincredible]

[ True to usual form, Bolin spends the majority of his time out, about and exploring, though nights are obviously off the table for general mingling.

People are free to run into him anywhere and anytime other than that! He's big on looking around in the shops and generally hanging around talking to island natives, whenever he's not on one of the ships doing his best gopherly and other such duties. Pabu spends a lot of time having his own free run of the place separately, always making it back to the ship around dusk.

With each consecutive night, it's probably safe to say that Bolin's general wandering area decreases in size a bit more, and he might run towards being a bit subdued here and there until the crew ships off again. But that's kind of what happens on an island such as this, honestly. He'll be quick enough to bounce back eventually. Hopefully.

Basically fun, shenanigans and general socializing are afoot here. And deliberately trying very hard not to think about any mistakes of a night prior. Ha ha ha everything is normal for everyone ha ha. ]

Korra catchall

[rebonding]

[Korra is spending the majority of the crew's time here in her cabin. No, not for the same reason as everyone else. She's just been on a bit of a low swing, these past few days.

It isn't until they've already been at port for a few days when she glumly ventures out in her wheelchair to have a look around the area. She's heard... whispers of some awkward occurrences, but hasn't really been able to bring herself to pay much attention.

At least, not until one of the locals gives her a 'get well soon' bouquet.

So that's a thing that's... currently sitting in her room. Stumble in at the wrong time of the evening and you're in for one very frustrated Avatar.]
