"Oh but that's why I want one! I love kids! I've always wanted one, but due to circumstances I er...eh nevermind." Rouge laughed. She really did want a kid though.
((-pets Lupe's soul- how purty))

Shira had gone through a few compartments before finding the drinks. On Rouge's mention of pepsi, she grabbed three for all of them. "I'll agree that pepsi's alright, but come on. We all know it's about the coke." She grinned.
She couldn't help but laugh as she saw Taylor with her nose in her notepad, scribbling down anything that Rouge said. Shira would probably write all about this later when she finally got home. About In Between, Space, everything.
Upon Taylor's question she responded, "I was just looking around in the shop. I hadn't really ever been there before." She handed them their drinks, then flopped down onto the seat and opened her own. "And....dead people wands?" She lifted a brow and took a sip.

Rouge managed to answer that question. "They're what those funny children from headquarters come from. Taylor's got one. And I tried doing coke once but the ice cubes got stuck up my nose." the fact that she was able to say that with a straight face was just evidence of how foreign she was. She didn't get exactly how funny that could be from a human's perspective.
Randomly she glanced in a mirror and decided to ask the question that had been bugging her for so long. "How do you guys think I'd look with a perm?"

Taylor would be writing things down when she got home too. In Between, space, spaceships, magic, shadows, the whole nine yards. There would be at least two hours of rapid-fire typing in the future.
"Yeah, the wierd reborn dead kid things," Taylor agreed. "Diacyn said that his friend's dad has one who's a fox. Don't ask me how I got saddled with this thing." She waved the wand morosely, before Rouge's comment made her snort with laughter. If she had been drinking anything at the moment, she would have had ice cubes up the nose too.
"Um, Rouge? I think doing coke means... oh, never mind." She wasn't about to give a spice pirate an improptu drug education speech.
"And a perm? Uh... you'd look curly." Taylor, obviously, knew nothing about fashion. Or any kind of good looks, for that matter. Hence the fact that, underneath her hat, her hair looked like a chicken nest that no reasonable chicken would dream of inhabiting.

"I was told what doing coke means. It's just not that funny here as no one does it in Tison."
-timeskip-
The three had been traveling for about an hour, napping here and there, when they came to a halt. Rouge had resumed driving and had obviously just parked the craft. "We're here." She said calmly, opening the top.
Instead of the dark city streets they'd been near in Gaia they were now parked in front of a small tan building with funny writing on the front that indicated that it was the Spa. They were on a beach and should they be looking the opposite direction they'd see the ocean and people playing. Rouge hopped out of the vehicle and opened the door for the girls. "In we go I say."

She refrained from laughing at the misguided comment on Coca-cola. The conversation had certainly taken an interesting turn.
"Huh?" Shira's voice came out slightly raspy. She had been in a light sleep before waking to Rouge's voice. It took a few seconds for her slow mind to register where she was. Rubbing her eyes, she stood and followed the two out.
"Whoa." Was all she could say after getting a gander at the new scenery. She took a few tentive steps inside the building, flashing Rouge a nervous smile as she walked past and examined the insides of the Spa.

Thin tanned beings with scant clothing. Their genders were not apparent but their flowing dark hair and eyes gave a definate exotic appeal to them. Either way they walked to the three travelers and bowed deeply. "Greetings and welcome to Gamacon. How may we be of service? Are you hear for a full spa weekend or just a small treatment?"
Rouge answered, as she was the one playing. "We'll be here for the weekend. These two have never been to Tison before and it's their first time to a Gamacon spa so why don't you get them started and I'll do the booking."
The two attendants nodded taking Taylor and Shira with them to a room that had several bathtubs in it-separated by painted screens. The artwork upon them was lovely and the room was warm and cozy seeming.
"Once again, we welcome you to Tison. The first part of the treatment we give here at the spa is a warm cleansing bath. The bath water has many flower solutions combined to make it relaxing and make you feel cleaner then you've ever felt before-but of course in a good sense." the attendent had a rather thick accent. The other was currently setting the baths and such.

Shira's eyes went slightly wide when what she knew were workers at the Spa approached them. Their different accent simply added to the strange factor of being on another planet. But when she thought of strange, it was in a good way.
Being led away, she started and glanced back at Rouge. When she entered into the room with Taylor, she looked around. Very beautiful. She looked back towards the door. I wonder if Rouge was gonna do something different....? She shrugged to herself.
"Of course,"She nodded awkwardly with a small smile towards the forgien speaker and thanked him when he explained the baths. Watching the other tend to his job for a bit before turning towards Taylor. "This should be nice, no?"

"Yeah, it should be nice..." Taylor sounded distracted, because she was- a WHOLE OTHER PLANET! ALIENS! Her eyes were wide as she looked around the room, nearly walking into walls and people because she was looking the wrong way.
Oh. Right. Yeah. Baths! "What kind of flowers do you use in these?" she asked the atendant, though she was looking over her shoulder to examine the screens. "They smell nice..."

"Many kinds," the attendant said kindly, "Naturally grown tropical flowers from here on gamacon, Faekynan climbing vines, Nurikan Fall Blooming Lillies, Saruruian silken lights, and many others."
"But the most talked of and rare ones here in Tison are the midnight jasmine from Phyfin and the Silver Rose from Lunica. Both realms are in the outlands and very hard to get plants from. But we were lucky enough to find a supplier." The second attendent said with a smile.
Rouge entered then with a grin on her face. "Okay I've booked us a stay here for the next three days. I think that ought to be enough."

Shira's eyes widened at all the strange names. She concluded that this was definatly gonna be an interesting day.
At Rouge's announcement, she blinked. ....Or three days...!
"Seriously?" She asked Rouge, slightly skeptical. "You sure that's okay?" Shira said with a little discomfort. She wasn't used to having something handed to her.

"Yeah. It's fine." Rouge told her calmly. "Don't worry about it. Just relax and have a good time."

Shira looked around before sighing, adding a little chuckle at the end. "You know, we really owe ya one Rouge." She grinned.
"Everything's so exotic here! How'd you ever find this place?" She seemed to re-think what she just said. "How many times have you been here?" She looked to Rouge.

"I'm not even going to try to spell those," Taylor said, closing her notebook. "But thanks! This sounds incredible."
Rouge's next anouncement hit her in the face like a sock full of batteries. "Three... three DAYS?" She would have been thrilled with three minutes! "Wow, thank you so much!"
Actually, the anouncement was very good for her, because she didn't have to worry about absorbing so much information in a short amount of time. She'd have a while to relax, take it all in, and maybe learn how to smell those flower names.

"Yes three days." She repeated. "And I found this place by traveling around with my crew and randomly bumping into the owners when their cruiser broke down mid-flight back here. I've been here like once though." she laughed. Suvic and Surmia had invited her there the first time and told her to come back whenever. They were good friends of Rouge by now.
