Who: Everyone!
When: 8/27
Where: The Tropical Island
What: The end of summer is quickly approaching, get your last bit of summer fun in now!
Warnings: Beach episode shenanigans.

Bright sun, warm sands, rolling waves, the tropical island was the place to be. With the new port making travel out much easier, the island was seeing a surge in tourism. Something about fighting giant fiery gods must have made people eager to jump into the water and relax.

[Shinrei takes the opportunity to hide back in Maya's hair with a few happy chimes, and Maya rolls her eyes with a smile.]

You're gonna make 'er blush.

C'mon, how've you been lately? I've been out of the loop.

Whoops~

[That's how much she cares about making cutie ghost blush.]

Pretty good. I've been trying to leave the city more often. It's been really fun.

I noticed, lucky duck. I try to go out once every two weeks or something, at least. Shi's just been really insistent we train before going around picking up anymore 'roommates'.

[She gives the word airquotes, making a face. Gosh, Shi, don't be such a mom.]

Tell her you're going out to train, then.

[She winks.]

...You just want me to get in trouble with her, don't you?

I can lie to aunt Morgan, but it's like Shi knows everything.

Anything worth doing is worth a little danger. Or something like that.

I believe in you, Maya.

[So yes, maybe a little.]

Uhhh-huh. So you've been in a little danger recently, huh?

I mean, if you've been having so much fun.

[That gets a bit of a frown from Nozomi.]

Jinxie told you then, huh?

...told me what?

[LEANS CLOSER]

[...She didn't, did she?]

Nothing really. I just got into a little trouble with some raiders, but we made it out okay.

--you didn't tell me that! And neither did Jinxie!

[Maya pouts, crossing her arms.]

Stupid raids... At least you're okay, though.

[Then she didn't spill about her little slip, either. Good.]

One of the girls with us is a skilled fighter, and she was able to chase them off.

Oh. That's good.

[She pauses.]

Is she cute?

[priorities]

...What?

[MAYA.]

...what, you don't think girls are cute?

[Maya raises a brow.
Oh Nozomi. You think the girl is cute don't you.]

...I don't know why we're talking about this!

It was just a question. But if you're gonna get all shy about it...

[She'll let Nozo-- HAHA YEAH RIGHT.]

What's her name?

[And then, from behind the two]

Oh, I didn't know you had a friend coming, I would have brought more.

[Enter Eri, bearing two ice cream cones]

Ericchi!

[Nooooo why do you have the worst possible timing ever?]

Eri...cchi...?

[Maya tries hard not to turn around with a devilish smirk, but it isn't working too well.]

Hi there!

Hi! Just Eri is fine.

[This is the face of someone who knows a situation is completely out of her control. Also that if Maya says ANYTHING, she'll regret it.]

Oh! Well, it's nice to meet you, Eri!

[You're probably getting a nickname eventually regardless.]

My ruuuude cousin didn't tell me you guys were hanging out, sorry.

It's all right, we just ran into each other here.

I'm not rude...

Maya was just saying that she had something to do.

[Pointedly.]
