drake snickered and patted her on the backside.
"take that as punishment." he smirked and pecked her on the cheek before hurrying with her to catch up to the others.
"so where's our next destination, Mr.Jones?" Drake asked cheerfuly once they had caught up.
Aridas shrugged. "there's the whale arch. it's near. you get a nice view of the harbor form above there."

Koko was still slightly red in the cheeks when she and Drake caught up. "That sounds nice," she replied. She was curious about the whale arch.

"It's a feature." Aridas said with a shrug. "if you indulge the tour-guide in me again, I belive it was given in the 1960s as a memorial to the town's whaling trade. It's made out of two whale jawbones."
"you'r eenjoying this, aren't you?" Drake asked with a smirk.
Aridas blushed slightly. "I, uh...well i dont' get a lot of company. it's nice to show people around."

"You're doing a wonderful job," Koko replied.
Then whispered to Drake. "If we're going to the harbour you best be ready battle with the sirens," she teased with a smile.

Drake laughed. "oh i am." he made a sword slashing action in the air.
"i'm a warrior, my dear. you'll be safe."

"Glad I have nothing to worry about then," Koko laughed as they followed Aridas.

Drake smiled. after a bit of walking they came to the top of a large set of steps going down a hill, a few benches and an off whale-bone arch.
"here we are." aridas said, patting one of the bones

Aridas grinned.
"And it's a bonfe fide dead thing."
Drake looked at it a little skeptically.
"Bizarre."

Koko tugged Drake along to look at it closer. "I don't think its bizarre," she replied. But then she was used to this sort of thing....growing up in a tribe that used everything the animal could provide.

"meh, maybe a little. it's not particularity P.C anymore." Aridas shrugged and yawned, sitting down on a bench to admire the view. He rubbed a hand over hsi eyes.

"This coming from someone who cut up a deer not long too long ago," Koko teased and leaned her back against the arch.

Drake shrugged.
"That's different. that was just a deer. Plus modern people tend to be all squeamish. Discovering germs seemed to freak them out."
Aridas laughed in agreement in the background.
Drake turned to admire the view, leaning on the arch.
"hm, there's a lot of boats."
