Duncan watched as Tango and Mordekai left as Ivy did, then laughed lightly at the sentiment. "Ah, no? What do you suppose he should be?" his voice was lilted with idle curiosity. He smiled at the comment, though, and practically beamed with pride. "Ah, I'm glad to hear it. I'm sure he would be delighted to know that."
Duncan walked along and offered Misha a few glances; he recognized Misha's tugging as a want for something, as well, and he nodded toward Ivy and stopped as soon as she began looking through her bag. "Of course." He began walking when their business was done.
"Ah! Gambino's quite a ways, but I do agree, I've never been to a farmer's market quite like the one on Main. My son and the farm owner are working on tending a booth up here in Gambino, though-- for a farmer's market over on Birch Street?" he raised his brows, clearly impressed and engrossed in Ivy's description of her garden-- at the mention of perennials, he thought pleasantly of the ones he'd seen on his drive to the beach just today. A thought of an apple tree was even more engaging, as he'd never quite planted trees himself, other than the lemon tree far out back.
He turned to Ivy at the mention of his garden-- he had so many inquiries about her's that he'd failed to properly organize thoughts about his own. He smiled wide and chuckled, then glanced toward the beach. He nodded. "Your instincts are right-- I'm quite fond of snapdragons! Hardy flowers, those are. My most recent addition, though, has been sweet potatoes. Our garden's divided between the produce and flowers," he laughed, too, "As a product of more than three decades' worth of stubbornness."
(( Mordekai - Buffet/bar, with Camille, Drey, & Damien ))
Mordekai chuckled at Cam's sentiment and shrugged, "Ain't gonna argue it," then gladly took the bottles that Damien were handing him. He uncapped it and glanced at its label-- it wasn't any beer that he'd heard of. He took a short swig and let the flavor settle against his tongue before swallowing it down. He glanced at the bottle.
"Oh! Damn, you a fast mover," he looked back up at Cam, and smiled apologetically, "Still, sorry I couldn't drop by an' help ya-- tell me if y'need it in the future, ah? An' that's lookin' real nice, din't know you were gonna have t-shirts!"
He enjoyed the drink quietly as Cam and company exchanged conversation over beer, though he did take a moment to smirk at Damien's commentary. "Real good use'f words," he noted. He took another sip of his beer and watched the discourse between Cam and Damien, then noted the glance at Cam from the pineapples of Damien's eye. And between Damien and Drey. Wow, was something happening, and he felt like one hell of an interruption. He looked down at Tango apologetically-- he knew that the wolfhound would probably prefer running over idle sitting.
He raised his brows mid-drink when Cam pointed toward him, then smiled when he finished his sip; he waved the bottle in his hand slightly and shrugged, "Ain't a fan of light beers, but s'a good seasonal anyway. Aintchu lookin' for a solid brewery to source from year-round, though?"
(( Johan - Parking lot, heading toward beachside; Leigh ))
"Alright. Text him to let him know you're here, anyway." He left from the driver's seat and went around to pop the trunk open with the remote-- they didn't have too much to carry, and he was able to grab the umbrella and tuck the two foldaway chairs under one of his arms easily. He left the bag for Leigh and smirked back at her, then glanced out toward the beach. He hadn't been to Gambino in a while, let alone by one its shores.
"True enough," he walked away from the trunk to let Leigh grab the bag from it; he smirked back at the sentiment. "So do most people."

[ Thanatos --> Beach | Melanie ]
"Oh hey!" Thanatos sat up noting Melanie's approach. He hadn't meant to rush out of there so rudely but he really did want to set up shop some place close to the beach and well he figured Mel would come join him. At least he had hoped so. "How ya been? Sorry about rushing out like that..." He gave her a playful knowing nudge but left it at that. Sliding over for her to take a seat he laid back covering his face with his hat. "Glad I managed to get out today. I might have missed this little shin-dig."
Anya's eyes traveled to the mess of curls that had been kept at bay by the handkerchief atop Revon's head. Anya couldn't say that the hairstyle wasn't lovely, as in many ways it was, but having known the Aurora femme more often than not with her ombre waves down, it was rather odd to see. All the same, the spider Frei gave an approving nod, not seeming to have noticed the waning of Revontulet's brighter shades.
"It fits your look. The bandana was a nice choice."
"Twice her size?" The vet took a moment to register the word choice and pair it with the motion the other Frei made to go along with them. However it was a brief one and when the two things clicked, his pierced brows shot up and a peculiar smile crossed his face. A short round of chuckling left him and he couldn't help but look from the two Raevans to scan over the beach for Doucette. Alas, she was not nearby. "I'll be sure to say hi when I run into her. Do you remember where she was the last time you saw her?"
As Zeke made to continue on the conversation, Anya felt more of the threads of trepidation gently snap apart. With a familiar face now here, and one she was more than comfortable with, the Widow felt the urge to break from her Guardian and spend the afternoon as they wanted. Looking between her man and her friend as the two talked, this notion continued to grow, but she was still finding herself struggling to ask.
He won't say no, she told herself, all I have to do is ask. He told me that himself so many times before.
She couldn't say what was staying her tongue - there had been times where questions had been posed easily enough - but the feeling continued to grow in her chest. She wanted this dearly. There was plenty to do, plenty to see, and most of all - one now here that she could easily spend it with.
Just ask him! "Zeke, can Revon and I...Can we...?"
The veterinarian's attention quickly focused on his ward, who was now looking more than a little uncomfortable with the situation. Her hands were clasped before her and she was looking between him and Revontulet with quick glances, lips tucked into the barest of frowns. In contrast to her look Zeke looked surprised for a moment but then openly smiled, sweeping his hands at the two Frei as though pushing them off to do as two Frei do.
"Of course you can, Anya! Don't let me spoil all your fun! Go on and have a good time, if you need me you know I'm not that hard to miss!"
Anya's wings relaxed. She hadn't even realized she had drawn them in so tight.
"That's no small feat," he informed the Frei, releasing her hand when the water was a third of the way up their ribbons, "I hated the water when I was younger. Didn't have much mastery of understanding how my essence reacted with it -- but you've got your lake-soul to find home here." Zul kept retreating into the water until it covered his hips, wings arching and stretching to angle against the breeze, keeping himself upright and doing what he could to help Melisande do the same. He did not know Tatiana and while he would have liked to have kept her close, it was her invitation that put them out there. It was more than he could say he'd encountered with any Frei.
Chuckling, he squeezed Melisande's hand, finally letting her go in turn before he sunk into the water, submerged. There was something beautifully quiet about the ocean, the way the silence prevailed despite the din above and the roar of moving water beneath, something he found peace in his later years. He was under no more than ten seconds before he emerged again, shaking out his hair like a dog and grinning. True to form, his hair fell almost perfectly back into place, wafting in the heat his body produced when wet. "It's strong, but it's wonderful! I've missed this --" and turning a bit on his side, he dove again into the crisp blue water, using his arms to propel himself to the bottom, eyes opened and narrowed as he sought seashells within the ocean itself before again bobbing above the tide some short distance away. He missed this a lot more than he realized.

((Tatiana - In the Water - Pasha and Zul))
"You've got to compensate for the waves, Pasha," Tatiana explained- curious coming from a frei who struggles with normal movement, "The water pulls and then you know a push will follow, waves are like that."
The Hamsa quickly gaining depth and smiled happily as the waves licked the base of her rune. She turned her head to look at Zul with a smile and gave the tiniest shrug of her shoulders regarding her essence. Trox had been fairly transparent about her origin but she could not quite filter what it all meant in the long run. These two, with waists and hips, were more familiar and it was embarrassing to be so uneducated- instead of finding comfort in her curiosity, Tatiana bit down and for the first time regarding a question she held off. Tatiana instead chose to dive into an oncoming wave and enjoy the cold water rushing over her back and wings.
--
((Troxel - Beach - Anita, Etheriel, Ronan and Maili))
"She is my companion, currently playing in the water with a few other folk otherwise I'd definitely holler over and introduce you two," Troxel supplied with a soft smile, he gave a tiny sigh and turned his attention to Anita for a quick moment.
"I am always afraid I'll be that overbearing one, yenno?" He shook his head and turned his attention back to the tea frei and grinned.
"Good Ol' Trigger?" He gave a small laugh and nodded, "Old man's doing great.Might still be adjusting to new roommates- we've somehow picked up three strays that might just stay forever..."
Might was an understatement. This was a recurring problem for Harrison and one he'd never admit to. Trox changed the subject with maybe a bit too much vigor with a large grin on his face.
"As soon as she is back in from the water, I'll bring her over for an introduction. Does that sound good, Eth?"
He turned his large grin back on Anita and nodded, "Right on- Ronan.. You look familiar and I believe I briefly met or saw you in the jungle, right?"
Harrison extended his hand to both Ronan and Maili regardless.
--
((Camille - Bar Buffet - Doucette, Mordekai and in VIC of Damien and Drey))
Camille received the kiss on the cheek gratefully with a pinched smile. His shoulders climbed up an and quickly pecked the mother to be on her own cheek in return all while calling out that she 'bettuh take care now, ya hear!' and that 'I have my eye on you, boff of 'em!' between conversation with the group.
"I mean I figgered staff shoul' have somethin' unifyin', righ'?" Cam asked a little earnestly, forehead in a wrinkle, concern written on his face, "Maybe dat's the south in me tryin' t'pop through- I dunno."
He flushed, focusing now on Tango with red ears and a very forced smile- He was overly conscientious when it came to 'What Ales You' - rightly so given the large financial investment and the do-good nature instilled in the former flight medic. However, with everything he's encountered in his history- he wants to do right by the bar and the people willingly stepping into it. He didn't want to make any bad calls.
Camille bent at the waist slightly, cautious of his center of gravity, and extended his palms to the dog- offering them for Tango to investigate should he so choose to without spooking him. The wolfhounds nose and tongue were warm, prompting Cam to - with a fair amount of effort- contort to crouching and eventually flopping backwards to be seated- fingers digging into Tangos fur.
Cam raised his brow from his seated position and regarded Mordekai's question, feeling another wave of anxiety filled embarrassment. He pushed an even larger grin in return and gave a nervous chuckle.
"Yeah, don'chu worry. Dis distributer only gave me th'seasonal stuff he had on'im. Asked for it specifically for th'shop an' he was willin' to part with the light summer brews for free. They go' lagers, IPAs and microbrews," He continued to scratch behind Tango's ears and gave a small shrug as he spoke.
"H'think there's sand in m'prosthetic," He mumbled more to the dog than anyone else.

(( Leigh --> Parking lot, heading toward beachside--> Johan ))
"Way ahead of you." Leigh had already taken out her handy phone while Johan was making his way around to the trunk and quickly typed up a short reply to Duncan. By the time he had gathered up the umbrella and chairs, she'd pressed send. 'We've just arrived! Headed down to the beach to pick out a spot now. Let me know where you're at?'
Stowing her phone and glancing back up at Johan, she caught his smirk and smiled back before picking up the large beach bag and slinging it over her shoulder. Closing the trunk lid, she chuckled at his retort and shrugged," That's why most people carry their own unnecessary s**t... Though looks like you beat me to the heavier junk anyway."
Ronan listened politely as different members of the group went over life developments, occasionally passing up more sea shells that Maili pointed out. An expanding family was a big moment and something to be proud of, but the selkie did feel kind of odd hearing about it. He didn't really know the other man after all. A nod and a smile were given he was introduced to Troxel and the frei. "Pleasure to meet you." Maili waved at Anita, hand half full of seashells as she did so. "And that sounds like a good idea," he said at the suggestion of catching up in a moment. No point in keeping her.
When Troxel mentioned the jungle Ronan found himself tensing up, Maili looking down at the sudden change and Ronan's smile becoming strained. "That'd probably be it, yeah. Nice to meet you in better circumstances," he said, conscious of the large scar on his right forearm as he shook the other man's hand. Seeing her uncle's state Maili made a split second decision - and jumped right off his back, running into the waves.
"Wha- Maili!" He shot an apologetic look back at the pilot as he ran off after his niece. "Sorry about this!"
(( Kris - Buffet and Bar / Justin, Winona ))
Kris had to fight back a laugh as the nymph got all indignant at Justin. She certainly found it funny, but she had a feeling he wouldn't appreciate it. It was at this point that Winona gave her input on the nymph, and both Ryleigh and Kris turned towards her. This time the selkie wasn't able to keep a few giggles from escaping as the nymph turned around and began to sulk, mumbling about being dignified and strong instead of cute. "I would agree," she said to Winona, "But I'm not sure if he does." Kris turned back to Justin. "I'd say it'd be best to ask him."
She smiled at the three of them. It was a relief that Ethiriel and Trox were already acquainted, hopefully giving the tea frei a minor sense of comfort and reunion during this interaction she forced. All the same, she didn't want to keep Eth from her friend and, as she peeked over at Cruz, she noted that he was with strangers. Aaron and Claire were within shouting distance, at least.
Talk of strays made Anita pause. More dogs. How many dogs did Trox have? But she promised both men to catch up with them later and, with a gentle hand, resumed guiding Ethiriel to their crocodile companion before Trox and Ronan got more acquainted.
”Hey,” she offered to Ian and Caroline as she approached, quickly turning her attention to Cruz, ”Eth's here.”
The frei floated higher suddenly and held the DS close to his chest.
”Justin's,” he answered calmly, despite his doe eyed appearance.
”Oh, okay.” Cruz's shoulders relaxed.
With his free hand, he reached out to Ethiriel and brushed her knuckles then got situated for her to be on his arm rather than Anita's. Once this was done, he felt more at ease. Cruz nuzzled his face against Ethiriel's cheek, in her hair, and produced a low approving rumble.
Anita grinned. ”Alright. Well, I'm gonna go find where our stuff went.”
”Okay, 'Nita. Thank you.” Cruz watched his guardian smile, nod, give a short wave to the red headed humans he had just been introduced to, then head off. At first her pace seemed aimless, then she caught sight of Mordekai, Tango, and Damien at the bar.
Once she was gone, he offered an apologetic smile to Ian and Caroline, then turned his attentions back to the DS in hand. It didn't appear too worse for wear, but there was an obvious wetness to the outer casing and one side of it had damp sand clinging to its corners and crevices. ”Thiriel, do you have pockets?” Maybe he should have passed the system along to Anita. ”Have a thing to hold but want to dig for seashells,” he explained, ”For you.”
The beer didn't seem to disarm Drey's look at Cam, so Damien tried to do so his own way. If their eyes met, his brows lifted, he would smirk against the lip of his bottle, or offer a subtle wink while still studying the beer's flavor and notes. It was definitely hoppy, crisp, but a Summer brew as Cam described.
Mention of 'staff' caught Damien's attention and he turned his eyes away from those lovely (hideous) pineapples to stare between Mordekai and Cam, the latter of whom had already plopped down with Anita's dog. Tango didn't seem to mind but he was also panting and glancing elsewhere.
”You got your own bar, right?” he confirmed at Cam before looking to Mordekai and quirking a brow, ”You makin' investments or somethin'?”
Tango shifted from Camille and beat his tail against Mordekai's leg as Anita approached. ”Hey,” she grinned while scratching Tango's mane.
”Heyyy, you're just in time for free beer.”
”Greaaat," she mimicked his tone to a T, then switched to her usual candor, "Where'd you put our stuff?”
Damien lifted his chin to peek around Mordekai's head, then pointed at the assortment of items the two had taken from the trunk. Barely anything was set up, just a bunch of things sitting unattended beneath a single umbrella that wasn't even fully unfolded.
”Good job,” she glanced at Damien flatly. He offered an apologetic grin in exchange for Anita's sarcasm. She scratched Tango's ear and smiled down at him, offering Cam a glance, ”Did you make a friend?” The dog's paws shuffled slightly in the sand. ”Yeah, you're thirsty. You mind if I take him?” she looked up at Mordekai, thumbing towards their stuff. The cooler had water bottles and Tango's bowls were among some things.
”That is wondrous news, Sir Harrison. I am glad to hear it,” said Ethiriel, a small smile on her delicate features. ”I hope your new extended family is content.” Despite the roar of the waves, Ethiriel was able to determine about where Ronan was by the call of his voice and she offered another bow. ”A pleasure, Sir Ronan.” She could hear his voice tense with the mention of the jungle; she did similar; while she wasn’t there, she had heard of what had gone down from a few other people. It was bad, but everyone was safe now. That’s what mattered.
Ethiriel gently shook her head at Trox’s suggestion, her smile becoming more timid. ”We are actually on our way to meet with Sir Cruz. Perhaps we will bump into one another soon regardless.”
And with that, she was tugged carefully along to meet with her friend.
His hand was eagerly taken, her own arm wrapping around his as soon as they met. His nuzzling was met with a gentle kiss to his cheekbone. ”I apologize, I am afraid that this garment does not have pockets. I may hold your item for you while you search, if you would like?”
--
Henry gave pause, staring at one of the rims of his wheels. ”…Apps? Like… applications? What happened?”
”What always happens.”
”…Is everything okay?” he fretted, switching ears. ”Do you have enough for rent?”
With an irritated laugh, Gabe answered, ”That’s why I’m trying to concentrate.”
”You’ll let me know if you need help, right?”
Gabe paused. ”Can we talk about this later?”
Henry sighed and lightly kicked his wheel before turning and leaning against the car. ”yeah, sure. Ring me up when you’ve got a free minute.”
”Right.”
And then Gabe hung up. Henry stared off into the sky for a moment before glancing back down to his phone. He locked it and shoved it back into his pockets before opening the car door and grabbing his and Ethiriel’s towels and umbrellas.

((Pasha - Surf | Zul, Tati))
Melisande listened to Tatiana's advice, eyes wide and excited as another wave buffeted her slight form. "Okay…thank you!" She smiled as Tati dove under the waves and turned to face the next one bravely. Just as the Frei had said, she was able to anticipate and work with it…and her laugh rang out again over the surf.
She gasped as Zul sprung up not too far from her, and twisted away with another laugh as he shook the water from his hair. Melisande caught a glimpse of the nymph perched upon their folded clothing on shore…the little sprite was pantomiming swimming in a most adorable fashion. The Muse nodded, pinched her nose shut with one hand, and let herself sink.
Pasha experienced the same moment of silence as the Demon had, and her eyes went wide. It was beautiful. Melisande could see the other two moving through the water like fish, and she closed her wings, trying to drift closer with her nose still pinched shut.

[[Doucette > Lulu]]
An absent wave was given to Cam at his words that were hardly heard over the surf. His concern was appreciated, but she wasn't going to run off and be reckless or anything silly like that!
Doucette's smile glowed with warmth as she walked with the bunny, a laugh coming soft and sweet to her lips as the sigel twirled and preened. Would Ren be so pretty when she grew? For a moment the red head's thoughts drifted away to the aurora and how she might look as she aged before the moment of conspiracy grew heavy between them and Doe was dragged back to reality by the seriousness in Lulu's gaze.
For a moment the woman wasn't quite sure how to reply. Her students had of course barraged her with questions once her stomach had started to grow, and thankfully the brunt of it all was taking place over the summer vacation so there wouldn't be too many additional questions for her to accommodate. But with Lulu, the question seemed more difficult. Was their biology even the same in the sense that she could explain this as something that might, one day, happen to her?
Doe took a deep breath, her gaze sliding away as if the answer was quite shameful before looking Lulu eye-to-eye. "I accidentally swallowed a watermelon seed and now I have a watermelon growing inside me." Dead. Serious.
---
[[Revontulet > Anya & Zeke]]
The further approval by the spider frei had Ren's smile growing slowly, eyes crinkling at the corners with happiness. She, frankly, loved the bandana style, and so though she didn't realize Anya had preferred a slightly different fashion, knowing that she did not outright dismiss it was more than accomplishment enough for their budding friendship.
"I like how straight and sleek yours is. Doucette tried to straighten my hair once. It took so long!" A natural impatience flashed in her bright eyes, deceptive under her otherwise calm demeanor. Although her hair had looked even more like the waving sheets of aurora lights, the speed in which she could scrunch it or curl it added preference to those styles. "But I liked the way it looked..."
Zeke's question brought a small frown to her face as she thought. "We were by the drinks with Troxel, then I went to see Tatiana in the water. I haven't seen her since."
Although Ren had not noticed Anya's internal struggles, she did notice the awkward, reserved way she posed the question to her guardian, and the way she visibly relaxed when receiving the answer she wanted. Anya had never come across to her as someone who did not simply ask, or take, what she wanted, so the exchange registered a bit of surprise in the back of her mind. Outwardly though, she smiled and pointed towards the surf, "I heard a lot of people are searching for sea shells?"

[[Justin - Buffet & Bar - Winona, Kris ]]
The nymph paused, eyebrows drawn in thought. "You-" he pointed to Kris. "Are a boon, lady, and smell of the sea. And you are strange, good sir. I am not cute! And how does one drink a hurricane?" The little nymph looked so fierce and thoughtful that Justin chuckled. It was probably not worth it to explain the mechanics of alcoholic beverages to the little guy.
"Well, uh, do you want to go back to the beach?" The nymph paused and stared up at Justin. Finally, he huffed and walked over to Justin's beer. Giving it a might heave, the can toppled over. Justin yelped and caught it before too much damage was done. "Yes, I want to go back, you lackwit." Justin pinched the bridge of his nose and reminded himself that one does not smack tiny little nymphs.
"Fine. Would either of you like to accompany me on this journey? Otherwise, I will be be back shortly." He smiled at both of the girls at the bar. Justin was pretty certain that Ryleigh would find a way to poke him before the day was done. With a small wave he was off, nymph in hand instead of pocket.

[[ Melanie → Beach | Thanatos ]]
As Melanie approached the man, a smile began to form upon her face. "Hey to you too, Xan; and please, don't worry about it. I've been quite well, thank you. How about yourself?" she inquired. She hadn't seen Thanatos since their date.
When he made room for her, she decided it would be best to take the offered seat. Stabbing her board into the sand once again, she gladly took her seat next to Thanatos, listening to him speak a moment before she responded. "I'm glad you did too. I decided to come surfing today, but then I noticed a few people from the Crawfish Boil were arriving. Then I met Ian and Caroline as well. There are some really nice people within the lab." she mused to herself, looking out over the oceanic waters with eyes shielded by sunglasses.
"What about you? What have you been up to lately?" she inquired with a nudge back and a sweet, soft smile.
Caroline beamed when the raevan responded to them, resisting the urge to press closer. "Great! It's such a beautiful day for a trip to the beach, isn't it?" She looked at Ian, who came to stand beside her with his own smile. They'd appeared to have startled the male at first, and the florist's eyes were apologetic as he placed a hand on Caroline's arm. She could be overly energetic at times, but she never meant any harm.
Just then, a familiar face joined them. Ian felt his chest relax a little at the sight of Anita, his apologetic smile shifting to a more friendly one. "Hey, good to see you again." But what really drew his attention was the arrival of yet another raevan, this one another female. She was beautiful, soft and gentle and oddly soothing, with silver branches for wings. The differences between them all were amazing, and Ian found himself gawking for a moment.
Meanwhile, Caroline was busy resisting the urge to coo over how sweetly the two creatures greeted each other. The nuzzling and kisses were just so cute! Just as she opened her mouth to speak, a loud song began to play from inside her bag. With a huff, she pulled out her cell phone and checked the message, heaving a loud sigh. "Hey, uh, I have to go. One of my dumb friends forgot about an assignment and needs my book. I'll catch you later, though, 'kay?" She gave Ian a quick hug, waving goodbye to the others, before dashing off toward where she'd parked. How dare that dummy ruin her beach day?!
And so Ian was left with the two Raevans, shuffling his toes in the sand. He overturned a seashell, and reached down to pick it up as he searched for something to say. He supposed introductions were easiest? "Ah, hi. I'm Ian, and that was my sister, Caroline. Um, what are your names?"

[ Winona -> Buffet and Bar with Justin & Kris ]
Winny couldn't help but chuckle at the nymph's indignant outburst, biting her straw in a weak attempt to hide her smile. He was small but, like her, not one to lie down before injustice. He made that perfectly clear when he forced himself against the nearest can, uprooting it in a surprisingly ferocious display. Fortunately, the scale of the scenario only made it all the more 'awww'-worthy
"I'd love to see the little guy off." She took another chilling gulp of her drink, stepping down from her stool and patting clingy bits of sand from her exposed legs. Her eyes rested stubbornly on the nymph and she gave him a gentle wave. "I've never met a... nymph."
Turning her attention to Justin, Winny pulled up the brim of her hat with a free hand, giving him a good once over. "I've never met you, either. I'm Winona... and, as you can guess, I'm very out of my element." She smiled, remembering her posture.
