[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!]

[The pat on the ass just made him smile. This King was certainly entertaining! And more than a bit interesting. Shunsui gave him a bow before extending his hand, the one not holding the bottle of sake and its cup, toward the water.]

So I understand. Please, go ahead, and if you like I'll pour a bit of this fine sake for you. The quality probably isn't what you're used to, but it seems fairly well aged, at least.

[...oh. It's this man again. Maybe he should've been watching just who he was touching, but at least the overly friendly gesture's taken in good enough spirits, though he has to admit he's never quite encountered anyone who answered a smack on the backside with such an earnest bow.

But hey, he can be polite. When it suits him. So Gilgamesh goes ahead and takes that hand, gives it a solid shake.]

Do you really?

[A dry sort of question, followed by a nod.]

I would not mind partaking. You are to be congratulated for your thoughtfulness, in accommodating this King.

[sugegasa]

Well! It's nice to be appreciated, thank you.

[And he was far too tired to do anything other than bow, really. And the man was a king, he needed to be polite! Or at least mostly. He was far too much of a troll to stick to that completely. But he did pour the sake liberally and handed it over, grabbing another cup for his own share.]

I've heard such things, at least. Haven't spent too much time around royalty but I certainly have with nobility.

[His own family, for one. And himself, if one was counting. Which Shunsui wasn't.]

I hope your time in the towers went well.

[babbylon]

[Gilgamesh downs half of it in one gulp, seemingly immune to its sharper taste. Though he preferred his own wine most of all, Gilgamesh was never one to refuse free alcohol. And while he's here, he may as well as well appreciate the sights, so to speak, eyes languidly wandering over Shunsui's muscular form. Not bad.]

It went... interestingly.

[He didn't fail, but he'd also had more than a few experiences he wouldn't soon forget. Some for the better, some for the worse, and almost all branded into the back of his mind. He turns the question back upon the other man, then asking:]

And yourself? How did you fare?

[sugegasa]

[A man after Shunsui's own heart, then! While the sake here took some getting used to, he found it to be rather pleasant and was happy that Gilgamesh seemed to share this opinion.

And if his eyes might have wandered over the King of Heroes' form in return, surely he couldn't be blamed!]

Interestingly, eh?

I suppose my experience could be summed up the same way. I did manage to dance with a monkey nearly my height.

[babbylon]

Oh? That sounds like a story worth sharing.

[Gilgamesh passes Shunsui with a flirtatious brush of his hip, headed for a nearby pool and glancing over his shoulder. Come along, then, he seems to be saying.]
