Lake Party Water Post Day Two

[the-woodpecker.livejournal.com]

Sunshine Dust, the golden squid, frolics closer to shore today. There were so many people to play with in the lake yesterday! And squids need love and attention too!

There's a soft breeze coaxing the water into gentle waves, playing around the Black Pearl's sails.

If you didn't get a chance to swim yesterday, there is only today.

Tomorrow, it will be February again.

A different kind of entrance...

[ncdcas-cable.livejournal.com]

Nathan and Alice were, meanwhile, swimming in a small cove at Providence, enjoying the early morning sun and still cool water. Nathan grins at Alice and kisses her, then ducks under the water to dive deep, stretching his muscles, as he drives deeper and deeper.

Finally, though, it is time to rise back up again, and so he does, slowly, head breaking the surface and...

...he blinks around at the lake party in Milliways' back area.

"What the--?"

Alice?

And for once Alice had been enjoying herself. Almost no worries in the world. Key word there... almost. She kisses Nathan back and watches him dive under the cool water and raises a brow when she suddenly hears his voice in her head.

Yes?

But even as she says that one word she dives under after where he'd gone. It doesn't take long for her to resurface right next to her husband. In which case she blinks a bit. How the hell...?

"Someone explain this to me again..."

Seeing her, he relaxes slightly, then glances down, realizing he had summonned his psimitar to his hand without even thinking.

"I believe that the Landlord is having His usual fun. We appear to be back at Milliways... in the middle of a party. I am not sure why it is so warm though."

He eyes the area, then shrugs.

"One area is as good as the next to swim in, right?"

"It's as good as any once you put your weapons away, Mr. Summers." She teases.

Though his explaination of why or how they were back at Milliways made sense to her. Though, yeah, last she'd checked it had still been winter. "Maybe they just decided if they're going to have a party its better to have it out where its warm rather than cold."

He chuckles and sends the psimitar floating to the beach, sinking it into the ground firmly. Then he turns and grins at her.

"Sounds like a good idea to me. Want to see how far the warmth goes?"

Re: A different kind of entrance...

[sorrowfulmisery.livejournal.com]

She watches it sink into the ground before giving him a grin back.

"Sounds like a plan to me."

Re: A different kind of entrance...

[ncdcas-cable.livejournal.com]

He chuckles and kisses her again, before diving just under the water and letting muscles and teke carry him forward, enjoying the pull and play of both.

She kisses him back before diving under after him. Those blue eyes are also keeping track of his movements.

[ncdcas-cable.livejournal.com]

A ways out, he comes up, smiling. Seems the warmth goes out quite a ways.

He treads water and lets the sun sink into his shoulders some.

[sorrowfulmisery.livejournal.com]

She follows him and comes up near him before giving a smile.

"Seems they went all out today."

[ncdcas-cable.livejournal.com]

He grins, one arm lazily floating out to touch her side.

"It does seem so. Warm air and water, food and drink, all kinds of people. Not a bad little shindig."

[sorrowfulmisery.livejournal.com]

She moves so that she's leaning against his side a bit.

"No, not bad at all. Warmer than where we were. Company and tons of it. Gotta love this place."

[ncdcas-cable.livejournal.com]

His arms curve around her, just holding on, letting them float a little. Below waterline, his legs brush hers.

He chuckles.

"Later, we should possibly try to socialize, even walk out there on the shore.... or something."

[sorrowfulmisery.livejournal.com]

"Are you saying that we don't socialize enough Mr. Summers?" She asks with an amused tone to her voice.

[ncdcas-cable.livejournal.com]

"I do my best to avoid it outside of work. Do you socialize a great deal, my dear Alice?"

A kiss is planted along her neck.

[sorrowfulmisery.livejournal.com]

That gets a slight chuckle out of her.

"Outside of you and a few other people I know here... no."

[ncdcas-cable.livejournal.com]

"Then perhaps this is a good opportunity. A chance to go out, talk to people in a limited area, then retreat back to here, or to our rooms upstairs."

he kisses her again and grins.

"Most days I am not one for talking up people, but, who knows, maybe it will eb fun."

[sorrowfulmisery.livejournal.com]

"It might be. There are many fun things outside of the duo that consists of only us."

[ncdcas-cable.livejournal.com]

He grins, then hugs her close.

"True, though there are many fun things to do between the two of us as well."

His chuckle is quiet.

"A long day, to do as we like, in warmth."

[sorrowfulmisery.livejournal.com]

"We have warmth every day."

Just not this kind. She's talking about something completely different.

[ncdcas-cable.livejournal.com]

He smiles again.

"Very true."

Have I mentioned how beautiful you look in hat outfit?

[sorrowfulmisery.livejournal.com]

"Of course its true."

She gives a slight smirk to that.

A few times since this morning... yes.

[ncdcas-cable.livejournal.com]

"Love you, Alice."

He grins and nibbles along her neck, then grins.

"Want to swim some more?"

[sorrowfulmisery.livejournal.com]

"Love you too, Nathan."

She lets her fingertips slide over his skin a bit. Nothing sexual.

"Yeah, I do. For a while anyways."

[ncdcas-cable.livejournal.com]

He nods and releases her slowly, then turns over and starts swimming.

One thing you can always say; our lives are never uninteresting...
