We be devotin' full time to floatin'

[om_nom_namur]

Who: Spades!
Where: Aquatica Paradise
When: Nov 5- ???
What: Waterpark Paradise!
Warnings: Language, violence, UST- all the usuals
Style: Any
Status: OPEN!!!

With the nightmares finally subsided, the Spades weigh anchor at the next island. Thankfully, the entire thing is full of water parks! Your generous Commanders will find a way to work out a deal with one of the medium sized parks on the waterfront for an extended stay pass- discounted, of course, since they'll be buying in bulk, but if you want to go to the other ones you'll do it on your own coin- or have to sneak in. Make sure to read the island description, there's a TON of things to do here! Catchalls, dated threads, etc, whatever. Just jump in, have fun, and to hell with fiddly particulars. I have no idea how long we'll be here.

She lets her own eyes sink closed and just relaxes here for now. "It is a bit pricey. But how often do you get to have a full massage and a mud bath? Besides, i hear the mud here has a healing effect. To help one feel more refreshed. If that doesn't sound appealing, I don't know what does.

Come with me? I'll buy. I was going to drag Namur in but I don't think he's like it anyhow.

[tactilelearner]

'Cause otherwise we both might be dead?

[Yeah, she realizes now how bad her initial phrasing was. damn.]

His powers're basically... puttin' so much energy into somethin' it explodes.

So. Couple taps t' siphon it off. Or knock him out if it was too bad.

[haruta_xii]

[She snorted back in return] People over react.

[and she chuckled as he looped an arm around her, but leans into him anyhow.]

It's a good start. Dinner on the beach. And oh ho, looking for somewhere private are you? [she said it with a grin.]

[haruta_xii]

[this would be the second time she was here, and bless this place, she always felt better when she got out. Seeing Thatch already here she smiled.]

...and he did ride. With a sword and a pistol by his side, uh-huh. [Good song. She crouched down in a towel by the side of the mud tub and smirked over at him.] Shouldn't be surprised to see you here. How ya doing, brother?

[she knows that the last week had been hard on him. There was more darkness then normal and everyone had fears. He's been distant. There was just so much you needed to piece together.]

[haruta_xii]

[At some point while he was asleep, Froggie moved her lounge chair closer, so they were right next to each other. She then scooted over closer to Ace, and curled up partly on him, taking his book and starting to read it while he was asleep. She hadn't curled up on Ace in a while. it felt kinda nice. And this book was really dull for an adventure book. Where is the fun?]

[donthithimintheballs]

[he snorted hearing all that, coming to sit don beside her now, head tilted back but watching her, making sure she was alright. Pryde was curled up with the girl now, purring and head down, looking like it was nap time. Out of everyone on the ship, she does best around Rogue other then Logan]

Good to know.

Sorry, kid. I haven't been the best at helping to take care of you, have I? [at least she had the Cajun to run to if she was in a bad place. He was from her home at least. Still, he didn't like it. Mostly cus he can tell, there's something. Must be. Why else keep going to him. Other then yeah, he's from her home.]

Glad you were able ta help him though. How's your Cajun doin' now anyhow?

[thatched]

Mm I'm alright. [only a part of a lie. He shifts in the mud] Care to join me? It's good. I might get a facial later. [and he knows you don't care about that sort of thing but he likes one now and again, especially if there's a pretty woman doing it.]

[thatched]

Going in the water and having fun, brother. [gestures at him with the beer bottle] You might regret it if it comes to it.

[thatched]

[he punches Namur hard in the arm with utmost affection. He doesn't want to relive that either.]

That was a mistake. At least we got the bastards in the end, aye? [he sips his drink] I want to see the rest of them scramble. [all the other slavers. All the corruption in this world. Also did you ask a question? he must not have noticed it.]

But first, relaxing and regrouping.

[thatched]

[he takes the drink back. An attendant is giving him a sour look but doesn't say anything because Thatch is seven feet and built like a very handsome tank]

Care to go get something to eat? I thought I saw a shrimp and seahorse shish kabob place not too far from here.

[thatched]

Pity. There's some great stuff here. [he picks up a flat stone and skips it over the surface of the water] Enjoy yourself at all?

[thatched]

[rolls Ace a beer bottle without looking at him and turns a page] Problems, mon capitaine?

[tactilelearner]

You're doin' jus' fine.

[She can't help but smile as she says it. After all, he's Logan. Being around? Is plenty for her.]

'Sides, I don' need too much lookin' after.

[The team she'd left and the group she was with now? Were more than she'd had growing up. She likes to think she's pretty self-reliant. Which isn't totally true, but. She can pretend.

As to Gambit...]

Still can' say "good mornin'" without lyin' twice. [She might be trying not to smile as she says it. As much as she talks about how he can't be trusted, she always know where she stands with him. What she thinks about him... different story.] An' he ain' mine.

[originaldragoon]

I will take your word for it.

[She gives a bit of a nod as she watches the rock skip along.]

I suppose. It is relaxing here.

[thatched]

What is it you do for fun anyway? [since it's about time he knew, he supposed, given everything that happened] What are your hobbies?

[originaldragoon]

[That gives her pause. What does she do for fun anyway? When was the last time she could truly say she had fun? Throughout the ages she really only concentrated on her fighting skills and her mission. For a while she did go flying with Micheal for just the sheer enjoyment of it, but he has been dead for over a thousand years.]

I do not have any hobbies really. I do like to read, though, and swimming is nice.

[booyaka_boom]

*Selphie glances at the person looking at Thatch like that, then she looks over to him with her told-you-so face. At the mention of food, though, she gives an enthusiastic nod*

Sure! But I might skip on the seahorses...

[booyaka_boom]

Selphie opened her eyes at the mention of a full massage and a mud bath. It certainly did sound amazing. "Hmm... You're right. It sounds awesome." But she shook her head, even if she couldn't see it. "You don't have to pay! But sure - I'd be happy to join in, if you're sure Namur won't like it..."

[om_nom_namur]

[Namur rolls his eyes, not that she can see it.]

Fun as it'd be t' get shot in the head when shit starts gettin' good cuz some jelly-brain thinks y' need savin', I'mma pass.

[He squeezes her side, then hoists her up onto his shoulder.]

Worry 'bout it later though. Right now, there's a shitty li'l wave pool with our name on it, sheheheh!!!

[And he starts running full tilt, weaving expertly around people and leaping head first into the wave pool. Hope Haruta moved to a better spot to hang on.]

u r preshus. /squooshes cheeks

[om_nom_namur]

Sheheheh! 'S fun. Think Thash's been here before though. People ain't been givin' as many shitty looks as I usually get.

[He chuckles about it again, then lifts his shoulders out of the water too, propping his arms up on the side and resting his head there.]

So. What y' thinkin' 'bout this whole mess an' all the islands an' shit we get in?

[om_nom_namur]

Mm...

[Namur's tone is determined, but maybe a little bit tired.]

Might get one, but more's jus' gonna take their place. Won't be opposed t' doin' more huntin' somewhere down the line. 'Nuff a them shits meets a grisly end, might at least make people think twice 'bout doin' it.

[Speaking of which...]

Ikki knows, now.

[He fidgets with his bottle, sliding it back and forth between his hands.]

[om_nom_namur]

[Namur stretches out in the sand, resting his head on his forearms.]

Likin' this island so far?

[om_nom_namur]

Maybe for the lake fish. Sure ain't anythin' near bein' in the sea.

[And he's seen too many of his own people on the other side. He balls his hand up into a fist, wanting to break it, to beat against the glass until he finds a weakness and hear it shatter, water roaring as it fills the room and makes its way back to the sea.

It'd probably kill everything inside.

Coming in here was clearly a mistake.]

Hungry? Found a place down by the docks makes sushi fresh if y' ask for it.

[feetarestrange]

That happens more often than you'd think.

[Like, pretty much every time she was near other sea life.]

I don't recognize any of them, but that doesn't mean they can't be my friends.

[feetarestrange]

Sneak in? You mean I'm not supposed to be able to get in there?

[correct, Nami.]
