[open log] is it still me that makes you sweat?

Who: Everyone!
What: Brave New World had it's beach episode. It's time for the first hot springs episode in this game to celebrate it's discovery!
Where: Scorched Forest - Hot Springs
When: Week 18 Weekend | Early Afternoon to the Evening
Warnings: Potential nudity and fights if someone get caught peeping. Let's try to keep it PG-13 in here.


[With the recent discovery of the hot springs, a group of citizens in Union decided to come together to set up an open event for everyone in the city who wishes to not only to check out and explore the springs, but to relax from the everyday life in Union. It is open to the general public so everyone is welcome!

The party area is obviously set up with decorations and other party requirements plus mostly cleared of any wild Pokémon. However, wild Pokémon are still wandering around so expect a Slakoth to swim with you or an Aipom steal food while you are not paying attention. There are cloth walls set up for more private areas and tents are available for changing into bathing suits, towels, or just go naked. It's recommended that you do wear something, but nobody is going to stop you if you go commando.

It's certainly warm to hot in this area for obvious reasons, but it shouldn't be too uncomfortable unless you have a Fire weakness. No matter where you are, the springs are giving off a relaxing air. So please, enjoy yourselves.]

[two steps forward, one step back. That still counts, right?

Michiru leans in a fraction as they walk, but she'll cuddle right up to you when they finally sit down.]

They did a good job with this place.

[there's probably room! Waltz knows better though, given the atmosphere, and heads off to the side a little. Maybe there's something fun to do around here that doesn't involve getting wet.]

[actsmagnificent]

[ Isn't that also one possible description of the steps to a waltz....

Haruka settles down for those cuddles - which are just as nice out of the water as they were in it. Cubchoo stares longingly at the bench, notices Waltz isn't apparently interested, thinks this over, and wanders off too. She mustn't go too far, though. Her Trainer might need her. ] It's exciting. The world's opening up...

[ She trails off, thinking this over, and then looks back at Michiru with a fond smile. Weighty thoughts about human expansion are not vacation material. ] But I didn't just mean the view.

[incousinswithyou]

[...maybe I'm just so much more clever than I thought.

Mm. She's settling her head against your shoulder. The world's opening up and the world seems to be visiting Union, given how every other person seems to be from outside.

Sidelong glance, smile.] Oh? So what did you mean?

[actsmagnificent]

All kinds of things.

[ Like the bear. Your Kirlia. The way the steam slowly twirls its way towards the sky. You know, things!

Which is funny since she can't take her eyes off of you. And is trying to play with your hand. ]

[incousinswithyou]

You're going to have to be a bit more specific than that.

[for your trouble, she's going to tickle the palm of your hand]

[actsmagnificent]

[ Oh, no, tickles. Whatever will she do. She is a mature adult yet cannot stand up to this onslaught. Haruka will just have to try harder to lace her fingers with that wayward hand. ]

It's not something I can address in mixed company.

[ The bear might be listening! Or someone else might be behind that rock, or... ]

[incousinswithyou]

And so I'm left to imagine what it could possibly be?

[like she could resist for long. Her hand settles into yours.]

[actsmagnificent]

Remind me when we're alone.

[ Squeeze. Here's a hint: it's elegant, clever, and always knows just what to say.

So, not Cubchoo. Waltz, maybe. ]

[incousinswithyou]

[Waltz would totally claim those descriptors.]

Tease.

[and she's lacing their fingers together. This has been a good day.]

[actsmagnificent]

Impatient. [ Haruka smiles as their fingers settle into place. It really has been.

She'll be content to stay here air-drying as long as it takes, too, so long as the Pokémon don't get into any more trouble, or anything. For now, however, it's nice just to sit with Michiru and enjoy her company.

And maybe sneak just a tiny kiss onto her head. Just a tiny one. Like this. Mm. ]
