[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!]

[ As much as he doesn't like them all coming here solely to get some R&R, yeah... he does have to admit that anyone just finishing up their time in those towers may have a reason to rest their bones. Though expecting efficiency as such from others, he'd cleaned up and gone out to explore the island long ago.

Which is why, expecting different from her, his eyes narrow. ]

That should be the least of our concerns. How about this area? Shouldn't we be investigating the change in the mana?

[Levi, always the eternal soldier. Well, that's why she appreciates and admires him, because while he could do with some relaxing, he's not actually wrong. There could be all kinds of trouble here.]

Then we can go investigate those first. I am in no hurry to be here. [She's tired, sore, but she's not dying from wounds. This kind of pain is irritating and frustrating, but it's nothing like suffering the fatal pains of death and remaining alive during the healing process. Her being here was merely for convenience.] You are right. This here can wait.

[She steps closer, ready to go with him should he want to go investigate.] Although, once we are able to catch some free time, I hope you will rest. [The tone she uses is reminiscent of all those times she called him up, hoping he recovered from all their ordeals.]

[ It's not like he'd begrudge her the time to rest, when he felt it was called for. However, they're in a position that he believes asks more of them than that, and he's under the impression that Vietnam is resourceful. She has the ability to go above and beyond the letter, as real soldiers should. There's no reason that she, like the many other Heroes with every chance to, should neglect that. ]

Good. I shouldn't have trouble with that.

[ Satisfied enough to have her cooperation, he settles into walking side by side. Hell, maybe she really could hold him to relaxing once this is over with, if they do a thorough job. For now he heads closer to the springs, trying to get a reading of the mana in the area. He's a Hero, certainly, but not an expert with this... so some things tend to stand out more than others. Namely, the mana signatures of other Heroes, which are blindingly bright compared to the subtle movements of life in the environment. ]

I wonder if there's a quieter place to get a reading.
