[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!]

Sorry 'bout that!

[But if you were dozing off, she might have saved your life! So really she's a hero, but that's not important now. At least she settles down once she's in there, leaning back against a rock. Getting her snacks together is in the plan but for now she just wants to take this all in.

Her expression's still sheepish when she looks back to the woman she disturbed.]

It's just been way too long since I've gone to a real hot spring.

[Disgruntled huffing intensifies! For a moment. This time, it was mostly for show.

The diclonius stretched her arms in front of her to ease away the stiffness in her shoulders, burn scars on her hands and all.]

Seems like everyone else had the same idea.

[This pool was on the hotter side, and so had rather fewer people in it. Some pools were so hot they bubbled like boiling vats; Kaede didn't bother trying to get into those. Some of the harpies had already started fencing those off in case someone wandered too far and tripped.]

[herplaceinthesun]

This place is new, right? That's the sort of thing that draws a crowd.

[Aisha isn't going to comment on any scars in a hot spring, that's rude even for her. Instead, she checks out the crowd. She's the type to appreciate a lively scene, even in a place traditionally visited for peace and quiet.

Back home a boiling pool would have been right up her alley, even here it's tempting. But that would require getting up. Not happening.]

At least there aren't a bunch of people hogging this pool. Hate when that happens.

[Says the girl who barged in on this pool.]

[long_live_the_queen]

Would that have kept you from jumping in?

[Kaede had her doubts, and she'd met this person for all of two minutes.]

[herplaceinthesun]

... Probably not.

[Kaede is a smart lady, or at least very perceptive!]

Why let someone else stop you from enjoying yourself?

[long_live_the_queen]

[Perks of being the person who lurks in corners and glares at everything! Observational skills come with looking vaguely terrifying, apparently.]

Hmph. I suppose you're right.

[herplaceinthesun]

Of course I'm right!

[Aisha Clanclan, ladies and gentlemen. Or just lady, considering.]

Have you been here long? In Blanc, I mean.
