Welcome to Gaia! ::

Who: who isn't there? O_o Audios of Darkness, GreyDragon, MadHatter, MoochiLove, Natty-chan, RavenFyre, & Trelweny -paired or nearly paired. wink Basically whomever Relm can get hold of or who gets an invite through one of the others. (so like, if Kaleb thought about it, he could invite Demyx & the gambler or something. Hey! Relm doesn't know everybody! *laughs* not yet!)
What: A trip to an amusement park!! ^_^
Where: probably starting at each home, then meeting up to go to the park or meeting at the park.
When: Saturday 12 May 2007. Early morning start.
Why: 'cause it will be a hoot!! *grins*

((okay... please go with Relm having set this all up mostly beforehand. I soooo don't want to RP all the calls back and forth or hunting audios down or something. ^_^ Aiden would have invited Lainey, extending the invite to her family whether or not Relm wanted even numbers. ))

Rikku bounded from booted foot to booted foot the braids in her hair flopping with each move, eagerly clapping her hands in anticipation making the bows on her thief's sleeves flop. "Today's the day! Today's the day!! Booyah!!" Light green eyes caught gold ones over the Al Bhed's head & rolled, bringing forth a soft chuckle from the fae audio. Of course Relm was smiling too, just not the way her 'sister' was. Butterflies of excitement danced in her stomach. It was a beautiful day -the sun was shining, a scattering of light fluffy clouds dappled in the clear blue sky, comfortably warm with a gentle refreshing breeze, and AearHwesta had informed them it was likely to last all day before he bid them adieu to spend the day with his ship.

The perky audio's sunset scarf whipped around as she bounced from place to place in the main room. Some of the smaller creatures were joining Rikku in her dance though they might not know why she was doing it. With a laugh she pulled Aiden along. He had thrown on leather European sandals, a pair of khaki shorts with a hole for his tail, and a loose white tank that hung low enough on his back to not need to be altered to permit his wings through embellished with a silkscreen image of an old stone castle on heather covered hill saying "Scotland" in bold flowing letters. The Highlander was being cautious, not wanting to have to leave his attire to the pictomancer & her brush's discretion should clothing be require at the place they went. It was bad enough he knew he could not take the swords... but nothing was likely to happen at a park full of guests, was it? "Aren't you excited, Aiden? I can hardly wait! I wanna see your Lainey's new wings!! & Mir's!! & Mir's guy! & Morgy! Do you think the Pervert will come?" Relm laughed and reached for the phone, pulling a note from the pocket of her usual harem pants. Her sister was talking a mile a minute and clearly forgetting any preparation plans the pictomancer had told her except for where & when. "Aye lassie. Aye. T'will be fun, I ken. I've ne'er been te such a place, only fair's an' festivals."

"Relm! Relm! C'mon le's go!! I don't wanna be late!"

Crinkling her nose Relm dialed the number before her eyes. "In a minute, Blondie. I've gotta call Scholar & his Cover first, see if they've got the day off." Relm grinned at her new nickname for Kaleb's partner, having come up with it after being reminded how Interceptor would 'cover' and take a hit for her. She figured the protective Riley would gladly do the same for the mage. Of course, the incident that brought it to mind was not one Relm had mentioned to Keme yet. She did not want to worry her beau and besides... she had made it out alive and safe.

She let the phone ring, doubting that this was too early for Kaleb -he seemed like an early riser to Relm- but not knowing about Riley and hoping the mage would be able to get to his partner's and wake him up in time to meet them. A very bright cyan hued yoshi audio peeked in from the corner, brown eyes curious. "Hey!! Did I hear fun? Can I come?" "Not now, Speedy. On the phone?" Espers! Not Speedy! Will I have to let Bubbles come now too? Grinning, Yahto flashed from the kitchen to join in the dance with a carefree laugh. Relm found herself rolling her eyes again. Only after she heard the familiar sound of Kaleb's voice did she speak, Rikku & Yahto's excited sounds in the background accompanied by the sounds of the other creatures around her. "Hey? Scholar? It's Relm. All set for today... you and your Cover free? Plenty of time to get ready & meet us there if you use one of those keen portals of yours."

Kaleb had indeed been up for hours before he got Relm's call, so there was no reason to worry about waking him. He was curled up on the couch around a giant book, already deeply immersed in his studies when he jumped at hearing his cell phone's ring, and scrambled to find it and pick up.

"M-me and my what? Oh. Y-yeah, we have the day off," he replied happily. "But Riley doesn't like portals, we'll probably be driving..." The mage couldn't quite keep the displeasure out of his voice as he picked up his book from where it had gotten dumped on the ground, and carefully set it back on the couch. "We can meet you near the front of the park when we get there, I'm sure we won't miss you."

After saying goodbye he set his phone on the coffee table and wandered into the bedroom where his partner was still being lazy and sleeping in. "Riley! We're going to the amusement park today!" He said happily, bouncing on the bed a bit so Riley couldn't simply roll over and ignore him.

Kaleb stopped his bouncing long enough to shove Riley right out of bed, with a bit of magic to help of course, and then he wandered out to the kitchen. "If you're not awake enough after breakfast to drive to the park, I can always portal us there," the little mage called back over his shoulder.

When he got to the kitchen he quickly scrounged around for a sugary, fruit-filled pastry and poured a glass of orange juice. Breakfast wouldn't be enough apology for waking Riley up, but it would ease the healer's conscience a bit.

All three stopped their walk when the two names were called and they all turned to see who was calling them. Naruto smiled brightly and happily at seeing his friend and he waved his arms, "Lainey!!!" he called out to her and rushed over to see her, thrilled to see she was bless as well to have wings like his sister.

Morgana smiled happily at seeing Lainey up and walking about on her own, which means the wounds on her back were healed up. She made her way over to Lainey and the other female at a slower pace, flipping her hair over her shoulders, Keme following close behind, curious over who these Audio's were.

Naruto stopped before the two females and he laughed happily, "Lainey, I haven't seen you in so long!! And Morgana told me that you got changed into an angel, like her!!" He calmed down enough to notice the other female and he smiled and waved, "Is this your sister?" he asked when Morgana and Keme finally reached them.

Nodding at Kaleb's words Relm said her goodbye's and hung up the phone. "Scholar & Cover are going to meet us there." Aiden nodded and the Al Bhed cheered with a loud "Booyah!" A cyan blur could be discerned running around Rikku with equal energy. "All right!! So can I come?"

The Highlander looked to his little sister with a quirk of smile upon his mouth. Relm glanced sideways at the yoshi. "Where's Bubbles?"

Unphased by her use of nicknames Yahto grinned cheerfully in his undaunted way. "At the beach. Surfing."

Relm contemplated the matter. On one hand, she knew that not only would Yahto be disappointed to be left behind, but Trelweny would not like them to purposefully leave someone home that wanted to go. On the other hand if she let him come it would unbalance the group.

She sighed heavily, realizing that in the end if they were odd numbers she could always -light green eyes closed and her head fell in resignation- call Gwen on the communicator. If she had to.

"Okay. You can come, Speedy. But you need pants and a shirt. Just in case." The yoshi's light purple boots already covered that department at least. The seasoned adventurer was simply loath to have to return. She grabbed Yahto's hand and pulled him after her to find Myranda. "C'mon. Let's get you those clothes." Already the artist's mind was sifting through what to ask the GaiaCom witch to conjure Yahto to wear. Something to match those boots of his and fit over that shell... or under it... "Old Man, why don't you and Blondie head out. We'll follow in a jif. Remember, the ninaus agreed to pull the wagon for us if everyone would rather ride."

"Aye, lassie." Gold eyes glinting Aiden headed out the front door, but Rikku -raised ear flicking in the sudden silence- was suddenly in front of him and bounding out the door and down the steps as if flying. "Naa-rruu-to!! Morgy! Lainey! Keme!" She blinked, giving a welcoming grin to all & especially those she did not know, catching the names just barely as she barreled into Naruto's arms.

Coming out the door more leisurely Aiden glnced after his sister, eyes alighting upon his beloved and shining happily as he jammed hands grown accustomed to fingering the hilts of his swords into the pockets of his khakis and strolled their way.

"RIKKU!!!!!" was Naruto's very loud, very excited cry as he saw his girl and he raced toward her, arms outstretched. When she was finally in them, which probably only took a few seconds for the two blonds to get to each to other, he wrapped his arms around her and swung her around happily, laughing saying how he missed her and couldn't wait to get the park with her. Then he proceeded to kiss the living daylights out of her, totally forgetting them basically had an audience.

Morgana gave her greetings to Chi, smiling fondly at the light blonde female and finding her quite cute. As Keme introduced himself to the two and they started to follow after Lainey, Morgana folded her ears back as her little brother yelled out Rikku's name quite loudly and she had to wonder if the people at the park heard it. But she just giggled, glad to see Rikku and Naruto reunited and that Naruto was looking forward to having fun.

"Do you know who else is coming along? I think Moochi said we are meeting a few others at the park, maybe Miranda and Abbadon, but she also said others might meet at Trel's place to all head there." Morgana asked as she glanced over at Lainey, idly rubbing at her hair, not used to it still.

Keme chuckled at Naruto's enthusisam and he sped up his walk towards the house, anxious to finally see Relm. He hadn't seen her since their date and he hoped she wasn't upset with him getting tired after consuming all that alchohal.

Kaleb smiled at his partner as he set down the plate with the pastry, and glass of orange juice, and then he bustled off to find his backpack and get things together for the trip.

"You're not going to drive in your pajamas, are you?" The little mage joked with a grin, wagging his tails a bit as he added items to his backpack. He had been up and dressed for hours, wearing some of his nicer and more expensive clothing, but not varying from his usual white shirt and jeans.

"I can't find my sunscreen, have you seen it?" He asked after a second. There was no way he was going to spend a day outside without sunscreen on hand.

Kaleb blinked and wandered into the bathroom to go poking around in the cupboard. Riley's gel was on the shelf above what Kaleb could see on his own, so he pulled over a magic step-stool. Sure enough, that's where the sunscreen was.

He got back to the kitchen and flopped down next to Riley as he opened the small bottle and squeezed a bit of sunscreen out. "I wouldn't have looked for it up there," he muttered, "I can't even see what's on that shelf." He took off his glasses and rubbed sunscreen onto his muzzle while his partner ate breakfast.
