[After the mystery and isolation of their last destination, the Marsiva seems determined to head to brighter, busier territory. After a long journey through remote, nebula-painted space, speeding along at a brisk pace for the Host ship, the Marsiva brings her Fleet to a sudden and prominent point of traffic.

It seems that the Fleet has happened upon some sort of vacation destination! Maybe Atroma thinks that the passengers deserve some rest and relaxation... or just wants to distract them with something huge and shiny.

Welcome to Hotel Corona! Feel free to enjoy yourselves and enjoy the sites! If a hotel resort isn't your thing, you can head on over to the nearby planet and explore it's icy wonders.

In order words: it's a mingle!! Everyone get in! ]

It will still be there in a few hours.

[yes you can.]

[willynilly]

Oh, I'm definitely staying for a few hours.

[When her time runs out they can drag her out by the hair if they must. She's just not paying twice.]

Is the water nice? It looks cozy.

[foxpas]

It is! I don't know how they heat so much of it, but it's comfortable... I find myself not wishing to leave.

[Her speech has become a bit more relaxed from how comfortable she is, even.]

[willynilly]

You have to be careful with hot water like that. It's really easy to doze off and drown yourself or something.

[The dark flaw of comfortable heat.]

[foxpas]

[IMMEDIATELY STANDS RIGHT THE FUCK UP]

Perhaps I will relax outside it instead.

[willynilly]

[ACK]

Oh, no, no! Sorry, I didn't mean to scare you. The attendants are here! They wouldn't let anyone drown on their watch, I'm sure.

[foxpas]

... Ah, right...

[whoops now she's sinking back down in embarrassment.]

Is that truly something that happens?

[willynilly]

Well... I don't know, actually. It just seems common sense, I guess? Like too much heat making you dizzy, or something. If you pass out in water, it's not guaranteed that you'd wake up.

[foxpas]

[she's relaxing again at least

not that you can tell, since her tail normally floofs up in alarm, but it's way too wet to be properly floofy]

Wouldn't water on your face wake you up again?

[willynilly]

That would probably depend on how deep a faint you're in...

[How deep does this death theory go.]

[foxpas]

I suppose so... Hot water is something of a luxury at home, so it's never come up.

[willynilly]

Don't you get too cold during baths, though? Or get chills? That can't be good for you!

[foxpas]

No, there is fire and wood to heat a bath, but it doesn't last very long. A luxurious bath like this would be restricted to the nobility, for none else could afford it.

[willynilly]

I see... well, still! That's all the more reason that you should relax and enjoy this to the fullest! So let's, um. Just forget I said any of that.

[foxpas]

Ah, right. Consider it forgotten.

[i'm never gonna forget that, i'm gonna be suspicious of baths forever.]

Though I am surprised... From all you had said of your home thus far, I had assumed that heating like this was plentiful as well.

[willynilly]

Oh, we've got heated baths, no problem. It's the spa treatment that's expensive! This whole experience... yeah, I don't really do that back home.

[foxpas]

It does seem rather luxurious... It is good that you got to try something like this here, then.

[willynilly]

Well, what's the point in giving us this money if we're not going to use it?

[Her eyes widen, and she smacks a hand over her mouth.]

Ahhh, listen to me! I'm learning bad habits, here...
