Lucia looked at the woman talking to her and she raised an eyebrow. Fluffing her hair she glanced sidelong at Roux a bit of a huff flashing before her eyes before composing herself and looking at Aki. She still couldn't believe that when living with him and Chloe for a month he completely ignored her.
Her eyes shone towards the woman as she told her "I'm Lucia." Her eyes smiled as she took in the expensive outfit.

"Lucia?" Aki raised a brow, and took another sip. "That's actually a pretty name! Sounds Italian." She lowered her glass and motioned towards the others, drink sloshing a bit against the rim. "I'm Aki. I look over Meilsande."
For a moment, she twisted around, realizing she hadn't seen Pasha in a while. It didn't take her long to spot the Sigel out of the beach, floating side by side with Zave. Aki smiled, pointed for Lucia's benefit, and shrugged. "Not sure if you met her. And this is Lucretia, and Roux....once they've finished their own introductions, I'll introduce you properly!"
Taking a seat at the bar, Aki cast a sidelong glance at Lucia. "Want something to drink?"

(( Arriving > Beach Bar ))
Ebony slide out of the driver’s seat smoothly, quickly raising her hand to shade her grey eyes from the bright light before scanning out the place. She’d heard about the beach party from the Delarans and knew she just couldn’t pass this event up. She absolutely adored the beach! One of the few places she didn’t mind getting dirty although she didn’t really count sand as dirt, but you get the point.
She took in a deep breath of the salty air and exhaled softly, more like a sigh of contentment. With a smile, Ebony plopped a cowboy hat on her lavender head having decided it would make a great traveling shade for herself. Besides, it seemed to match well with her blue and white checked bikini. She slammed her car door shut and took one last look at her reflection in her dark window. Though daring enough to show plenty of that deliciously sun-kissed skin, Ebony had decided to keep some semblance of modesty with a pair of shorts. Another satisfied smirk as she entertained the thought of how much her father would have disapproved of the outfit before bounding down towards the beach and the bar.
Wanting nothing more than to lie out and bask in the sun’s bounty, Ebony knew it wouldn’t be complete without a cold drink. The bar was busy now as she took to a seat at the far end of the counter. Seemed lots of people had already shown up for the event, and possibly more than last time, but it didn’t bother her as much as it normally would. Just something about her and the beach, it always put her in a good mood. Thus, she waited patiently for one of the attendants to be freed. Meanwhile, gazing out at the perfect watery horizon.

Kale snapped out of the trance he was in soon turning to find himself alone. Disappointed he looked for Ani, which he found in the same spot he had left them. Trotting back over he returned his seat back in the sand, still finding it soft. "H-Hello again." he stuttered petting Tango's fur. He glanced back down to Tango smiling as the dog breathed through it's mouth in the heat. Fidgeting with his hands he looked up at Ani "What n-now?"

[Sand n' Stuff -> Beach Bar]
Rising up from his comfy seating along the shores, he dusted off the sand. He didn't want to leave his feet soaking in for too long in fears of it looking like a raisin. With one last pat of any remaining sand, he looked into his nearly empty cup and drank the dregs.
Aden walked back towards the beach bar which was certainly piling up with people.
Taking a seat near the end of the bar, he placed his order while putting down the empty glass. It didn't take him a while to notice a purple-haired girl nearby staring off with her gray eyes shaded by a cowboy hat atop her head.
Trying not to disturb her, he waved his hand gently in front of her while letting out a careful voice. "Hey, are you alright...?"

"Hi, Isikoro , I'm Damien." Damien smiled sweetly and held out both of his hands to shake, one to Rai and the other to Isi. "How are you? And Eir-des-chi-ole...? ," He slightly butchered the name "Hmm... Zayne was telling me about raevans and one named kinda like that... Is he a raevan?" Damien's eyes widened. He, like Zayne, was also curious about all the raevans, but very shy of meeting them. He scanned the area and spotted two things of interest, including the kite that his guardian seemed interested in and a bunch of plastic toys that were made to be played with in sand.

Lucia smiled at the compliment of her name. Pronounced slightly oddly, with a "sh" sound and emphasis on the "u" her name was dear to her. Her introduction to it, when Yuurei named her, was so full of love that she adored it immediately. Besides, its beauty suited her.
"Hi Aki. I haven't meat Lucretia before, but I lived with . . . Chloe." Her voice grows bitter as she avoids saying Roux's name.
She nodded at Aki upon the offer of the drink. "Oh yes!" Her eyes laughed. "Melisande gave me a frozen drink before that was very good." Lucia smiled at Aki.

Location: Sand 'n Stuff ---> Beach Parking Lot
Tony seemed to be distracted for the longest time by the beauty of the creatures near them. But when the phone in her bag let off it's cheerful little tone and vibrated against the various items in there, she jerked her attention away and hurried to answer it.
"Yeah?" She recognized the number. It wasn't a casual call, but casual tones were appropriate all the same with this person. "Where are you at? Something's messed up big time with Jones' business, and we need your help fixing it." Figures. She couldn't even get away for a few hours without getting calls about work. "I'll be home asap. I brought my laptop with me but I forgot to charge it." She responded, looking disappointed.
After she hung up, she turned to Ani. "I'm sorry, but I gotta go. I swear I'll be back in a couple hours, I just need to take care of some things at home." She turned to Kale, smiling. "It was nice meeting you." Grabbing her towel and shoving it in her bag she took off at a jog, waving to her friend and acquaintance. She stole one last glance at the Raevans before she entered the parking lot, climbed in the drivers seat, and took off to take care of, as usual, business.

Petting Tango was a nice idle motion that seemed innocent enough while her attention was elsewhere--the Raevans. Why were they so stunning? She just couldn't bear to take her eyes off of them for more then a few moments, and the more that clustered together, the more she saw how unique each one was. They say no two humans are alike, but Ani knew for certain that this saying was just made for Raevans.
Kale's approach caught her off guard, but she greeted it with a smile and a wave of her hand to let him know rejoining them was perfectly acceptable.
The business call, however, was not.
Ani turned immediately to stare at Tony's bag expectantly as she heard the light jingle of her ring tone. She knew all too well what took up 99% of Antonetta's time. Nothing fun. Her form visible slumped as she heard the words 'I'll be back' from her friend, but she gave her a smile all the same. "You better be," she stuck out her tongue, "Call me if anything keeps you longer," and she waved her off to her business. For a moment she wondered if it would be better for her to walk Tony, but with how quickly she took off she would probably have just slowed the working girl down.
Tango sat up quickly at her departure, giving a loud couple of whines that tapered off as she was lost in the distance, and he returned his attention to Ani and Kale, giving his tail a short wag or two whenever either of them ran a hand across his back.
"I think one of my friend's is up at the bar..." Ani mused aloud, finding it even harder to spot the skinny brunette male amongst the steadily growing crowd. Even the Raevans had relocated their in that allotted time. It was like the bar was floating on a sea of people.

She'd been looking at the sea...
It had startled Chloe a little bit when Isi spoke beside, her causing her to jump. Her expression had been... wistful? Perhaps a little sad, as well. Regardless it changed now to a timid smile as she leaned over to wrap an arm around Isi's shoulders to give him a sideways hug. "A-Ah... Isi, s-sorry. It's g-good to see you, how are you?"
Chloe gave quite a large jump of fright as suddenly a complete stranger was leaning in close. The timid, pink-haired receptionist looked up wide-eyed at the man as he greeted Isi. She let go of the boy (whom she'd unconsciously grasped tighter in her sudden fright) and gave a sheepish smile to the man, her cheeks flushing slightly. "O-Oh... H-Hello..." She didn't want to answer the question that had been directed Isi, it would be rude... but she could put in a little input. "A-Ah.. not many call him b-by his full name. J-Just Eiry is usually e-enough." She gave a shy laugh, immediatly looking down at the sand as she tucked her legs beneath her.
Roux had glanced down, his brow furrowing in irritation as someone he didn't know bumped into him rather hard, causing him to float forward a little bit and slosh his Club Soda. The temperature lowered a few degrees directly around him, though... the woman was forgiven a little bit when she addressed him as Prince.
Roux's wings flared regally as he looked back up, icy blue eyes glacing over Lucrecia. She... there was definatly some sort of feeling of kindred about her. Roux floated forward, reaching out a slender hand to lightly brush fingertips across Lucretia's forehead.
His eyes narrowed a little, hair falling in front of his eyes. "Ah. Ice, yes." That was what it was. He let his hand drop to his side, glancing back over at Aki and gave her a small nod. "Hello."

Without her knowing it, Ebony had allowed the rest of the bar to melt away from her as she stared off into space. There were very few places in this world, at least nowadays, in which she felt at peace enough to let her guard down. Of course, it probably wasn’t a good idea for her to do that here, but she was only human afterall.
A blurry movement and a small voice slipped her mind back to reality then. “Hm?” A single finger pushed the rim of her hat up to look at the person better, meeting a similar metal gaze that matched her own. A smiled teased her lips as she answered in a light British accent. “I’m perfectly fine. Sorry about that. Suppose I got lost in my own little world there. Can’t be helped with such a beautiful view. Don’t you agree?”

Kale watched in awe as Tony was ushered by the phone off to work or somewhere. Telling by Ani's expression, it wasn't odd to see it happen. Seeing the other go Kale sighed a little as their group shrunk a bit saddened. Tossing around Tango's fur he was startled at Ani cut in. "I think one of my friend's is up at the bar..." Hearing this Kale looked from Tango to Ani and in effort for something to do he agreed.
"O-oh why don't we g-go see him or h-her?" Kale spit out quit frantically for some reason. Apologizing he bowed slightly and stood up watching as Tango stood up along with him. Petting the animal's fur once more he offered a hand to Ani. The wind blew slightly causing him to shiver but he shook it off with a smile to his friend.

Tango wagged his tail a bit, looking around at any passersby, stooping down a little to sniff at the sand. He sneezed loudly, shaking his head from side to side and quickly brought one of his paws up to bat out some sand grains that had gotten in his eye.
The girl had been halfway to a stand by the time she noticed Kale's hand, to which she swiftly apologized, laughing at herself immediately, and took his hand for the remainder of her standing. It was then she noticed Tango's irritation, and she bent forward, forcing his paw away and for him to hold his head still just long enough for her to sweep a few grains from his bottom eyelid. He wagged his tail in appreciation and began his normal panting once again.
"He. Yeh, I think I would. It's been a bit. Do you wanna come with?" the question seemed off hand as she preoccupied herself with shaking out and folding her blanket up, making it suitable to place into her bag once more, and doing similarly with the water bottle and travel bowl she had used for Tango. She could get more ice for the wolfhond up at the bar, anyway, which he would appreciate.

Lucretia closed her eyes and held still as Roux touched her face. It was comfortably cool this close to him; she thought that he felt as though he may have been even colder than her. As he let his hand fall, the Frei girl lifted her own hand slowly, to hesitantly try to return the gesture.
"Hello," she said to him, suddenly looking very relaxed.
Then she turned her attention to the other Raevan who had approached, and looked her over with her default sort of deadpan expression. Lucretia greeted her as well, saying, "Hello, Lucia," and nodding slightly. Touching her in greeting just did not seem fitting. Besides, something about the new girl made the Ice Rose Raevan vaguely nervous, but she could not put her finger on it.
She thought Melisande sweet, though, and figured that any friend of hers could not be too bad. Though she wished she could spend at least a moment alone with Roux to talk to him, Lucretia moved a little to physically allow the cat-eared Raevan into the conversation. Could not be rude, her father would not allow it even if he was not watching.

Kale smiled slightly at Ani's laugh before he noticed Tango. Watching Ani sweep off the sand he felt reassured that the dog would be taken car of quite carefully. As Tango perked up Kale turned to his bag digging for a small bag which had tiny pieces of ice and some water melting at the bottom. Frowning at how most of it had melted he reached in pulling out a piece of ice and chucked it into his mouth.
Feeling a push on his waist he looked down at Tango who returned his look with a pouty-face. Pushed over he held out some ice for the dog to gobble down. Sighing he poured the remaining water out and watched some of the condensation slip off. Beginning forward he waited for some sort of conversation to spark up.
