Pool Party Go

[mikangirl]

Who: Nami and you
Broadcast: Yes!
Action: Iskaulit Gardens
When: 1 July

[Video]

So in two days I'm turning ... I think it's twenty four!  [Even if she looks eternally twenty, but hey, it's a good age for a cute girl to be stuck at.  She can tell herself that, anyway.]  And unlike last year, I'm at least stuck in a place I can celebrate it.

So barring us all getting trapped in each other's heads again, in two days' time I'm throwing a party by the Iskaulit's pool, because I'm tired of running events in the bar and this planet doesn't look like a wise choice for idiots to get drunk down below.   Please come.  Bring yourselves, bring a bathing suit, bring whatever.  I'll set up a little mini bar and everything!

...

...also, is anyone considering exploration beneath the islands?  Inquiring minds want to know.

[She's been busy down here lately.  Has a whole vegetable patch going and everything and her turnover is slowly getting healthier as she gets more practised at it.  She never had a problem with the mikan trees, though.  From seeds to saplings to-- Asteffiel helped them along right at the start, but all the same.  

You can find her with a basket, gently cutting down the fruit that's ripe enough, and trying not to let her mood sink.  She was never meant to be here long enough for a handful of seeds to become fully grown trees.  Please offer her a distraction.]

Can we keep track of how many people get drunk down below anyway? For science.

[and entertainment. Mostly that one]

[mikangirl]

Well, as long as it's for science. [Amused.] Question is how, though. Stake out the local bars?

[privateeyed]

Oh, absolutely. We need as much data as we can get.

You want me at your party or keeping eyes on the bar during said party? Don't mind either way, boss.

[mikangirl]

Mainly at the party! I think we've got the bar covered. [Vash doesn't like swimming.] But I'll keep that in mind.

That's a great idea. Of course I'll be there! Q-Lulu will enjoy the activity, too.

[mikangirl]

Will Q-Lulu be okay with all the people there? [It's cute and welcome, but she's concerned.]

[axi]

He'll love it. The more activity, the better. To be honest, I've been a little worried about lack of stimulation when we go to the pool. The oceans on Ragna were always lively, as were the baths when he went swimming there.

The pool is certainly more predictable than what's down below. I'd love to come.

[mikangirl]

I wouldn't mind drinking below in general, but I don't want to be responsible for the people who can't hold their liquor so well in that place.

And great! You're very invited, of course.

There's a decent bar attached to the hotel I'm staying at. I've noticed most places like that are set as close to the middle of the islands as possible.

[Smart, really. Saves people from pitching over the edge too close to their watering holes.]

Glad to hear it! What do you usually do for birthdays where you're from?

[meowbel]

Oh, oh, oh! Can I make a giant birthday cake for you? Pretty please with lots and lots of cherries on top?

Video

[mikangirl]

[ksjldsaf Mabel bless. She's seen you around the network, kid.]

Lots of cherries on the request or on the cake?

Video

[meowbel]

Could be both! It's up to you, you're the birthday girl here!

[That and Mabel wants an excuse to bake something huge]

[goldenglasses]

If you want someone to watch the mini bar or serve anything I'm happy to offer up my services! Or if you want I'm happy to watch over the Space Bar that day so you can enjoy yourself! Free if charge of course.

[He may be offering to work so he has a good excuse to not wear a swimsuit.]

[mikangirl]

[She may be under that impression. So she gives careful pretense to considering his offer, at least.]

It doesn't sound like much fun being stuck behind the bar all night...

[goldenglasses]

The point is that if I'm at the bar all night you can simply enjoy yourself! You should be able to have all the fun you want without needing to think of taking care of your guest's drinks.

And, I would also get to talk to all the ladies you invite to the party~~

[Says the man who is suppose to now be in a casual relationship with Kitty. The flirt dies hard.]

[reluctantbastard]

[Ah, another recent birthday person!]

Well, I suppose I should consider myself lucky that I have someone to embarrass me over the devices about my most recent birthday, Nami.

[He likes Space Bar and the current owner's always been friendly when he arrives, so why not talk to her now that he has the chance.]

But a pool party, you say?

Video

[mikangirl]

Happy belated birthday to you, then! We'll have to exchange presents. [So cheeky.]

But yes. Do you have them where you're from?

[reluctantbastard]

What does one get one's favorite bartender? Perhaps a new set of glasses?

[Cheeky is fine. Cheeky he can live with.]

No, I can't say that we do. When I was child, we just swam in the lake around Redcliff village and there aren't that many places to really swim in the capital.

[dothelokimotion]

Is that an important number?

[ It seems rather pointless . . . ]

[ video ]

[mikangirl]

Heck, no. It's just an excuse to shower love on myself for the day. Like congratulations, you survived another year, all that kind of thing.

[dothelokimotion]

So you do this every year?

[aspearing]

Happy birthday - though, I'll be sure to be there to wish you a happy birthday in person.

[ Ah, but... as for her next question: ]

I was. If you were thinking about going - please, allow me to join you. It may be safer to travel if you have someone else with you.

[mikangirl]

I look forward to seeing you there! [Genuinely so-- they haven't talked much, so she's happy to hear from her.]

And I definitely don't want to go on my own. I was hoping to find a group already going, but if you're up for it, I'd appreciate it.

[aspearing]

[ She offers another smile at that. ] Thank you for your kindness. I only apologize that we haven't had a chance to speak more often beforehand.

[ She nods, brows furrowed. ]

The more people we have with us, the better if may be. We can't be too careful.
