Waking the Dead 2.0 || May 18, 2063 || The Mandatory Hot Springs Episode

[kawaakari]

[The skies are clear, the air is cool, and overall? Conditions are perfect for spending the entire afternoon and maybe even the entire night at the hot springs within Seigi. It's open to Zangyaku operatives and their families, along with any of their guests.

Oh, they're also communal. Surely no one minds? It's just skin, after all.

You're allowed to smoke, drink and eat while you're chilling out in the pools. You can also play cards, have a round (or several) of ping pong, flop around... anything goes, as long as you don't kill anybody!]



OOC Notes:
+ Make your own threads, plot out your own shenanigans and whatever else. Just remember: War Hounds and the rest were probably invited there after lunch, and are more than welcome to spend the rest of the day there. Y'all might want to specify the time. :3
+ NPCs are available on call beyond the threads I set up in here (if I end up setting some up, anyway)! Lemme know if you have questions.

[therealbrianna]

Oh, okay cool.

[ She stands to leave, and is gone for about 5 seconds before sitting back down, but on the other side of Eli. ]

What does it say?

[tagabigay]

Nothing new.

[He is Disappoint.

He also sucks at being social. Sorry, Brianna.]

[therealbrianna]

[ Huh what. ]

So if there's nothing new, why are you staring at it?

[ SORRY, INNOCENT ONE TRACK MIND. ]

[tagabigay]

Because something new may come up eventually, or I may have missed something.

[Patient, as a mountain is patient.]

[therealbrianna]

[ Head tilt. ]

Isn't that what notifications are for? Or... Alarms?

[tagabigay]

There are for when something new comes up. I need to review, though, if I want to note down any connections that I may have missed.

[Still working.]

[therealbrianna]

[ Insanely focused Eli is insane. ]

Why not get a fresh take on it, yknow, consult someone? But not me, I can't do... that.

Drink? [ She's holding out a glass of... something. Just in case, might as well be polite and offer! ]

[tagabigay]

Thank you.

[Reaching out and getting it from her, all without looking up.]

I'm consulting with people now, actually.

[Fuck yeah, Mind Magic!]

[therealbrianna]

[ Oh no Eli mentions people! ]

Ooh, cool! Like who people?

[ I LOVE PEOPLE! ]

[tagabigay]

No one you know.

[Flipping the page on his tablet now. Taking a sip from his drink.]

[therealbrianna]

But... Where are they from?

[ Nope nope nope no escaping unless you throw something shiny in the other direction. ]

[tagabigay]

The Methuselah, mostly.

[He is so used to this.]

[therealbrianna]

[ Ooooh Methuselah. ]

Do you think they need help with their PR stuff? Cos I can do that. I think.

[tagabigay]

Get to Fifth Circle first. Maybe I'll consider you.

[There might be a small smile on his face at that statement.]

[therealbrianna]

[ AWESOME. ]

Yeah, I plan to!

[ She lets a short moment of silence pass by before speaking up again. ]

Thanks for entrusting me with your guns for the moment, by the way. I mean, thanks again. I feel... trusted and responsible.

[tagabigay]

[Right, she's still there. And talking about the guns.

Ah well.]

They ought to be used by someone who's capable of doing a lot of good.

[Now he's finally turning to face her.]

[therealbrianna]

[ Shyly now, because he has directly addressed her. ]

Thanks. I'll... try not to let you down.

[tagabigay]

I doubt that you will.

[He means it. Elias Tagabigay kind of sucks at lying, so he doesn't bother. He'll tell it to you straight, always.]

[therealbrianna]

[ She's beaming now, but she leaves it at that. She's perfectly okay with just sitting down, chilling out, enjoying dipping her feet in the onsen. ]
