[Open] It's getting hot in here

[showsnopiety]

Who: Caren and anyone visiting the hot springs!
When: Post dungeon, could be right after fail/success, could be days after
Where: Hot Springs of course
What: There's a hot springs, so now there's a hot springs episode.
Rating: Could be a p-13 and beyond because some people are only wearing towels in this place.





[Win or fail, everyone needed a reason and a way to relax. With the fall of the towers, there was all sorts of good things to come from it. Some would say it was the birds; and others would say it was the hot springs.

The large, large pools of heated water. Sure, they could be used as a way to get all steamed up (or even steam punk) but after all that hard work, everyone deserves a break!

Bring your swimsuits, your towels, your drinks and snacks-who knows, you should be able to find them in the bazaars, or even on Airy. It's time to soak in the heat!]

[ beat ]

The hot springs ain't mixed, are they?

[flirtations]

[ He's still (miraculously) fully clothed too. He nods in agreement at Yata. ]

Is it even possible to fully enjoy and relax in the hot springs while wearing clothes?

1/2

[rollin]

Yeah, yeah—

[rollin]

Wait, don't you just hate clothes!?

[flirtations]

Eh?

[ THE MOST INNOCENT LOOK ]

Not at all, I like wearing nice things! Whatever gave you that idea? [ he's so innocent ]

But, to answer your first question, I don't think they're gender separated...

[rollin]

[ yyyyeah he's not buying that BUT ]

What!? Seriously!?!

[ BUT HE WAS SO READY. He has is tray of bath things and everything. ]

Why is it always like this, oi! Doesn't anyone here have any shame!?

[flirtations]

[ what's the problem, he can still enjoy the bath??? ]

It's not really an issue, is it? [ in all seriousness-- ] Everyone usually stays submerged such that you can't really see anything, and we have towels...

[rollin]

But everyone's still naked! And the towels are too small!

[ But the towels probably wouldn't be too small... if you were a guy. Yata's not thinking about himself here. ]

[flirtations]

They are? I never thought that was an issue.

[ But Yata's right towels are optional in this case. ]

Oh, Use more towels, then!

[rollin]

That's weird! Wait. That's not the problem! Unlike you, I got some shame! And so does everyone else!

goodbye

[hoasen]

[Ignore the fact she's burning up now because yes...were it private, perhaps she would be a little more relaxed about this.

Nodding very slowly...]

There are no partitions, so...they are mixed.

[rollin]

Ah. [ CLEARS HIS THROAT ] Mm, yeah. I, um. I take back what I said. Clothes are... important...

[ His face is heating up in embarrassment. He can't believe he told Vietnam to GET NAKED. ]

[hoasen]

[It's too late, she already heard the first answer.]

Did you bring a swimsuit, Yata?

[Now that he said they're important, and he wants to go bathe too, he'll probably need one?!]

[rollin]

[ LOOKS AWAY ]

Well, I mean... Sometimes in battle, you come unprepared...

[hoasen]

[LOOKS AT THE SKY.]

...I think we need to go to the shops.

1/2

[rollin]

Yeah. Sounds good. Um.

[rollin]

[ But there's someone among them who's a menace to society. Someone who can't be left alone. As the Yatagarasu, it's his job to maintain public order and kick bad guy ass. Sometimes, both. Today is not one of these times.

A sideways glance, then a narrower look as he tells Vietnam with utmost seriousness: ]

Grab Jae-ha.

[hoasen]

[There is a hero among them that remembers that a sinner is in the midst. And he must be stopped. Thankfully, Yata is that hero.

So Vietnam nods and immediately latches out to grab Jae-ha by the elbow.]

You are coming with us.

[flirtations]

Huh?

[ He was just starting to unbutton his uniform jacket when he was grabbed!! ]

I am? Where to? [ and then his voice lowers, pouty and childish. ] Sen-chan, I really wanted to relax in the hot springs... [ CANT THIS WAIT ]

[rollin]

[ NO!! He grabs Jae-ha's other elbow. ]

We can't relax around you! Now c'mon! We got swimwear to buy and people to protect.

[ With that, he starts marching to the nearest swimsuit shop, dragging Jae-ha along with him. Who's Sen-chan... ]

[hoasen]

What Yata said. We must be appropriate if we get the chance!

[So now they look like they're practically dragging him by the arms (and potentially lifting him because they're both rooks) and heading towards the nearest shop.]

[flirtations]

[ He looks to one. Then the other.

No way, seriously?! ]

But I'm not doing anything! [ OMG HIS INTENTIONS WERE PURE... MOSTLY. AND: ] I'm not wearing clothes into a hot spring! [ yeah you're gonna have to physically drag him ]

[rollin]

[ It's okay, they're rooks. And Yata looks kind of scary now. ]

Viet, you know how to use gravity magic, right?

[hoasen]

It's fine, Jae-ha, many others might wear some too. [Or at least she saw Bolin with swimming trunks.

And whoa, Yata is meaning business now.]

I do. [Time to make Jae-ha lighter and make it easier to drag him? Fly and leap with him in tow to the nearest shop? The possibilities are now endless!]

[flirtations]

I don't care about that, but why do I have to?! [ Now he's just being bratty on principle, tbh, because not only is the prospect of wearing clothes into the hot springs dumb, but he's a free man!! ]

I'm a free man! This isn't FAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAIIIIIIIIRRRRRRR!!! [ is the cry that's heard as he's lovingly transported through the air or whatever ]
