Sim decided he had spent enough time with the two Simus and wanted some moments to himself.
"Many thanks Scarlet." he grinned and headed off towards the direction Sarria pointed, all the while pulling his things behind him with great difficulty. "May our paths cross again in the span of these two weeks." he waved, turning round a corner.

Ronin just blinked and wondered about the sentences of the older one. He looked at his ticket while the teenagers where talking and a dispute was going on in his mind causing him a lot of trouble. If he would go now, his roommate could come and he would miss him. Otherwise...being alone was boring too and this boy seemed...strange but not dangerous.
As Ronin saw him hurrying off he raised his eyebrows and followed quickly making clagging noises with his shoes. "My name is Ronin." He called as he catched up with Sim. "You've got a long name. That's cool, mine is so small." Alright, he tried to open up and be nice and perhaps this one was able to tell. At least he knew difficult words.

Sim wanted some time alone to be with his thoughts and himself, but apparently that had to wait. It was impossible to think Sim was annoyed at Ronin, given the bright smile and affable disposition the teen was displaying.
"Ronin?" Sim repeated, letting the name roll off his tongue several times before he shook his head, "You wish for a longer name? Alright then! Allow Sim to grant you your desire for a lengthier sobriquet!" he declares, throwing his hands into the air extravagantly.
"From here on, I dub thee Sir Nigel Indigo Nhel Organza Rimel." Sim grins, "but perhaps that's a bit too much." Sim trailed off momentarily before brightening. "No, it's hardly too much! Well, what say you, Sir Nigel?"

((No one has to come to the low level pool or anything to RP, this is just Aurora's growing. ...although, anyone's welcome to come RP? biggrin )) Aurora continued to relax in the pool, mind drifting slowly. She wasn't sure what she was thinking about, it all just moved through in a relaxed state, topics on any and every nature. The ring on her finger glowed with that soft 'glow in the dark' look as it slipped off one finger, the warm water soothed her, the engine's hum sending Aurora into a relaxed trance. And slowly, as if she was being hypnotized, she slipped underneath the water and sank to the bottom where she lay there. And then, they fell into an odd trance, Nymph and Aurora both, with the little silver ring sitting nearby on the pool bottom. One of Aurora's eyes darkened more and more till it was a golden brown, but she didn't blink, just lay there. One hand reached out for the ring, but she only held with a relaxed and slightly curled up hand. Slowly, she started to change and grow older, although it wasn't quite as obvious as it used to be.

Ronin was stunned by the length of the name and felt sudden proud of being accepted by someone so eloquent. The boy looked at the small dagger at his belt and felt the need to answer very respectful. Indeed he was a Sir now, right ?
"I thank thee for your kindness. You may call me Sir Nigel now, although my mother will always call me the Ronin."
Somehow wondering that he finally accepted the Lena as his mother, he blinked several times and looked at SIM. "I will go back to my room now and...write down my new name so I don't forget it !" He called, really trying to keep the long chain of words in his mind. "We will see each other soon."
His shoes made clagging sounds and he almost tripped over his own feet as he hurried back to the still empty room. What an excitement, he was a Sir now !

Sim smirked to himself as the boy left, "Red as rage, but soft as a rose. His sandals perhaps is his only saving grace fashion-wise." he murmured to himself as he finally managed to drag his things to his room.
Without so much as knocking, the teen entered and tossed his bags onto the nearest bed. He removed his overgrown sunglasses before flopping face down onto the queen sized mattres. He sighed, loud and long, as if releasing some pent up frustrations, though he knows quite well he has no reason to do so.
Restless was the word he was looking for and he dug into his feathery hand-carry and pulled out his clicky pen. He marveled at how sparkly it was and just for the fun of it, he hid under the covers to watch it glow in the dark.
Satisfying the impulse of his shallow happiness, Sim removed the covers and brought out his journal along with the small, screaming neon orange notebook he found buried in his mother's closet. Without so much as pausing, he clicked his clicky pen and began to write in his journal.
((the entry can be found in his actual journal))
Having finished writing his entry, the teen put his journal away and set his sights on the small notebook. With a grin, he began to sketch and doodle.
((Aurora, Sarria and Ronin can expect a gift from Sim sometime soon XD although it may just be a table napkin/towel Sim stole from the cruise ship n.n))

Ronin smiled brightly as he looked at his little red journal, which stuck inside his luggage. "I will need to write down my new name." The young one said to himself, while his blue eyes suddenly noticed something new inside the bag. 'Sir Reginald the Knight', a children's book given to him by the Lena.
His right hand grabbed the object of interest and a picture of a man in armour with a blonde girl in his arms appeared on it's cover. Ronin toddled back to the door and peered into the hallway, checking if somebody, for example his roommate, was near. No, he was indeed alone.
So he walked back still examining the item filled with words and sat down on the bed. He kicked his shoes off his feet and watched them having a nice fly before turning his attention back to the book. If he had nothing else to do he could at least take a look at this, right ?
Once upon a time in a kingdom far far away lived a beautiful princess together with her family. Everbody liked her, because she was so pretty and always reacted very friendly, even to strangers.
Ronin looked at the picture showing a blond girl waving at the crowd cheerfully and frowned. This wasn't going to be a girly book, right ? It sounded boring, boring and boring and so he quickly turned to the next page. A knight in shining armour petted a horse now.
Sir Reginald was the King's, who was the princess' father, best knight and was well known for his brave deeds. He owned a horse, which obeyed perfectly to all of his orders and was his best friend. Reginald was the best swordsman in the country and always wore the long piece of metal close to his body. Some people say he even slept with it at night.
The blue eyes seemed to glow slightly because of excitement as he read 'Sir'. He was a sir now too, at least the older one had told him so. Kyoko had told him to listen to the more experienced ones and so he had to accept this fate and be a sir after all. Ronin looked at dagger, which lay beside him on the bed and did nothing. Could it be a sword too ?
But one day something terrible happened at the kingdom : The princess was kidnapped by a group of bandits. They wanted to blackmail the king to pay a lot of gold to get his daughter back.
The whole country was very sad without the princess and her mother cried night and day. Because of this Sir Reginal decided to rescue the beautiful girl. He rode towards the well-known woods , where the bandits had their camp, at night. It was a very dangerous place and he tried to be as quiet as possible to sneak inside the camp.
By now Ronin was completely stunned and just stared at the pictures developing the child story into an adventure movie in his mind. He imagined himself being the knight who wanted to rescue the princess and he felt the tension just like Reginald must have done. What an exciting novel !
Most of the bandits were already asleep and so Reginald had to be very quiet, so he didn't wake them. He had almost succeeded to reach the hut from where he heard the princess' sobbing, as he stepped onto a bone from the bandit's meal, which cracked with a loud noise. And the bandits awoke.
Of course they were very angry and wanted to kill the knight so he couldn't get the princess. They were at least five and well known for being scary and strong. Sir Reginald instead wasn't scared and unsheathed his sword to face a dangerous fight. "I will allow nobody to harm the princess and the kingdom in any way !" He shouted furiously and fought the bandits down.
Ronin wallowed in his dreams and imagined the terrible swordsfight. What a brave man ! How nice of him, no wonder that everyone liked him. Sir Reginald had been just one person and the other had been five.
The princess was more than happy to be rescued and Sir Reginald guided her back to her home. A big party was announced and the king offered the knight a lot of gold, but he didn't want it. "I don't want any reward for doing something every person capable of doing so had done. It's just a question of honour, my king."
Everyone was celebrating and the beautiful princess was so glad about being rescued and the modesty of Sir Reginald that she noticed how much she liked him. So they married and lived happily ever after.
Ronin closed the book and stared at dagger still in his dream world. He had never before read such a good book, although it wasn't the best language-wise. But he was a boy and it was a children's book so it completely suited his likings. Honour...as a sir himself he had to be friendly, full of honour and rescue...girls ?
The young boy wasn't sure if he should like this part of the story, but decided to at least explore the unknown ship more now. He was brave, indeed.

Aurora got out of the pool, pushed the ring back on and half-stumbled to the lift. She hadn't been wearing this outfit earlier and it fit well, but where was that bikini? She'd LIKED that one, even if it did mean... things.
Once on the right floor, Aurora got off and went down to her room. She left the door open. There were things more important to Rora at the time... like finding her clothes, getting out of these wet ones, and figuring out why she'd just changed ... for no apparent reason. She even felt odd in the head, slightly light headed and faint.
Maybe it was something she ate for lunch.
Aurora stuffed the sword back on the table where she was sure she'd left it and flopped in a chair.

Sim yawned and got up, stretching out the kinks in his back. When his orange eyes glanced at the pile of crumpled paper balls lying atop his bed, the teen sighed.
"This room is doing nothing for my inspiration." he moaned softly to himself, and picked up the small, screaming neon orange notebook. So far, he had only been able to come up with one sketch that met his approval. And the reason for this critical judgement was that the design wasn't for him. If it was for himself, Sim would have had no problem no matter what it looked like.
He knew he'd look fabulous no matter what. But this design was for the second female Simu he had met, and he intended to know what else made her tick. Perhaps he could show her the design and eventually turn it into a reality, once he finds the proper fabric that is.
With the notebook in hand, and his ranbow-inked clicky pen, he stepped out of his room.

Aurora sat there for a few moments more, rubbing her forehead. She felt so odd... and sitting there didn't seem to be helping either. She didn't bother changing, maybe it had something to do with the water, so why put on a bikini again? She'd test that later.
So she stood up, shook out the damp dress... tunic? Whatever it was, and made her way outside into the hallway. She could go get a drink or something, that'd help her head. Aurora really did want to be around when the shop set sail at 9pm.
Rora spotted Sim nearby, and waved feebly. She was still confused by this person. "Hello...!"

Still in the spirit of honour and bravery Ronin straightened his back and moved out of his room. Dagger was attached to his belt as he walked firmly trough the hallway. He made an important and serious expression as he suddenly noticed two people near to him.
Should he...come closer ? Curiousity won the fight against politeness as he moved towards the well-known one and the stranger. An older girl, even older than the one with the words, had just come out of a room. She was blonde and pretty and...she had to be a princess.
So Ronin collected all of the bravery resting in his heart and took a deep breath before addressing to her. "Excuse me, princess. Do you know where I can find my roommate ?"

Sim at first blinked in mild surprise, no one had responded to his unique taste in clothing by actually acknowledging him! And then as he approached the older woman, his orange eyes grew wide in shock.
His jaw dropped, his left palm pressed against his chest, his right hand just pointing at Aurora. Speechless, and bug-eyed, Sim was at a loss for words. Even when Ronin arrived, the teen couldn't shake off the shock which came with the realization that Aurora had... grown older.

...okay, this was not what Rora expected when she'd headed out into the hallway and waved. In fact, she'd half expected to be laughed at for walking around in a dress that was so wet.
But they were actin...
Waaaaiiiit. Princess?! The boy that'd called her princess made Aurora ignore Sim's odd reaction for a few moments. He was a Simu too, byt why the word Princess? Deciding to ignore that, after all, Sim was in the same area and it could always be his fault for this new nickname trend everyone was picking up, she replied, "Um. I'm Aurora... and who's your roommate?"
Then she looked back at Sim. Aurroa raised an eyebrow. "What? Do I have a spider on me or something?"

"You... you..." Sim repeated several times before he gripped his notebook tightly in his fist. "You've ruined it!!!!!" Sim wailed, throwing his hands into the air hopelessly. "Do you have any idea how much of me it takes to conceptualize and design these things!? Now I'll have to start from scratch!" he sobbed, dabbing his orange kerchief to his eyes.
Sim never did deal well when it involved his passion for fashion.

Wow, she talked to him. She must have noticed that she was a Sir after all and if she hadn't the male teen would probably tell her soon.
"Nice to meet you, Princess Aurora." He bowed slightly feeling very brave and polite by doing so. As he looked up again Ronin still saved the serious expression. It wasn't easy for him to correspond with other people, although he tried to be friendly.
"I think Lena said something like....Uwaaah..or Oooha...or...I think Ura was the right expression." His hands played around with his clothes nervously as he looked at the pretty person.
