[this is it-- Atroma's surprise vacation stay for you all! it's time to explore, speculate, relax, and totally behave yourselves. right?

how are you all dealing with the ever-so-educational volcano? have you played around with the visual toggle on those collars yet? aren't they cool? aren't these peasant clothes rad? if you haven't had a decent meal since Abeo, maybe you could afford some of that authentic farm-raised meat they have here. historical!

I bet you're all excited and completely thrilled to be here! who wouldn't be? ...so, make some discoveries, make some friends, and have fun!]

[He perks up, then sits up a bit and smiles at Ino.]

Hi, Ino! Sleep well?

[ino]

Yeah, I guess so ... I didn't really mean to doze off like that.

[ Oops. It's just so nice out, though ... ]

What are you up to?

[not_mafia]

Not much... just taking a break away from the city.

[He lays back down, takes a deep breath, and sighs.]

I've missed the fresh air...

[ino]

[ ... A small smile ]

Yeah, me too.

[ Oh right -- her basket 'o' food. ]

Are you hungry? I brought a few things out here to eat.

[not_mafia]

[He sits upright promptly. Did someone say edible, actual, delicious food?!]

Eh-- really? I'd love some!

[ino]

I've got bread, cheese, some fruit ...

[ It's all healthy stuff, but -- it's fresh, which is quickly becoming something of a delicacy ]

[not_mafia]

[Tsuna doesn't care anymore. He'll eat beets and brussel sprouts if you offer them to him. ...okay, that might be a slight stretch.]

It all sounds so good... I'll take some bread and cheese!

[ino]

[ Gets out a knife & cuts him a slice of bread and a chunk of cheese ]

I've been meaning to ask you -- have you been able to test out your powers at all?

[not_mafia]

[He happily takes the bread and cheese.]

Eh? Oh, no... I'd need my ring for that.

[And he takes a bite. Omgosh so good.]

[ino]

Did they take the ring?

[ bites into a piece of bread, herself. yum ... ]

[not_mafia]

Yeah... my gloves too.

I guess I'm going to get a dagger... [Bluh. He doesn't like it but it's some protection at least.]

[ino]

Well, I guess that's better than nothing.

[ Frowns .. she hadn't realized Tsuna was so .. defenseless LMAO ]

[not_mafia]

[Without his mittens and jewelry, he is an absolute weenie.]

Yeah. I guess you won't have any problems.

[ino]

I guess. I wish they hadn't taken all of my weapons, though.

[ She feels naked without them :( ]

[not_mafia]

[A hum of agreement.]

I hope Natsu's okay.

[ino]

[ Yeah ... this isn't like Paradisa where it's at home. Atroma probably has all of this shit in storage. ]

I'm sure he will be! He's pretty tough.

[not_mafia]

Mm, yeah. I still hope I can get him back soon.

[ino]

... On one of the last planets we were on, I was able to get something familiar ...

[ She pulls out a simple cigarette lighter from her pocket ]

Maybe there'll be an opportunity like that again.

[not_mafia]

Hm? [He leans over, looking at it.] Opportunity? How'd you get it?

[ino]

There was a forest on the first planet we stopped at ... when I walked all the way through, this just kind of appeared in my pocket.

[not_mafia]

The forest?

[Then he remembers.]

Gah--! I didn't go in there because it was too creepy!

[ino]

Yeah, it was definitely weird, but ... I guess it was worth it. [ She fiddles with the lid of the light absently, flicking it open and clicking it closed. ] This used to be my sensei's. I had it in Paradisa, too.

[not_mafia]

Ehh...

[He flops back down on the ground.]

Now I almost wish I'd gone...

[ino]

[ A sympathetic smile ]

I'm sure there'll be another opportunity.

[not_mafia]

Probably.

[He's staring up at the sky now. Paradisa... it's been so long.

He muses aloud.]

I never thought this would happen again...
