It's Party Time [ Open ]
Who: Jim Kirk & You!
Broadcast: Nope
Action: Yes, Planet-side @ Alloy Lake
When: Sometime in the evening
While it wasn't broadcasted, between how many people were told and the fact it wasn't exactly a private affair on a very public beach, anyone was welcome to come to this little shindig. Kirk's feelings were mostly that they all could use a break and a chance to relax together as friends, family, teammates, or any other word you chose to assign to the relationships you had on the Fleet. It was a nice break from working in projects too. It was nice to have something to occupy yourself in a creative and useful way, but it was always a good idea to take a break and refresh the brain now and then.
Which was how he came to the idea of a party on Alloy Lake.
He scouted a scrap of land near the water to set up on - beach towels, a cooler with drinks, a mocked up grill to cook some food. He went out later in the afternoon to start with more than enough light to enjoy some swimming, though it would be dark soon enough for certain members to join without being uncomfortable. At which point, a bonfire was built. What? A lack of sunlight is never a reason to stop partying! Especially not with such good company.
[ ooc: It's a party on the beach! Make your own starters and have some fun! There's drinks - alcoholic and non - food, a couple of games or make your own, a bonfire later in the night with of course means some kind of smore, swimming, and more. In terms of invite, you can assume you were directly told by Kirk, or told by someone else, or the grapevine. It's open to all, so don't worry to much about it. Have fun! ]

[Not the best comeback, but he's tired. She has to be too after flinging such high level spells around. Magic like that can really drain a person, and while he isn't yet up to that level, he's getting there. Polymorph might be a freebie as far as spell slots and the like go, but it's still a freaking difficult spell.
He listens as she scoots over and settles down, ears pricked for any movement that comes anywhere close to him. He's not sure if he can actually sleep with her there, so he listens. Her breathing slows, but not to the point where she's actually resting. Even if she's in a Trance, it should be shallower than that. He barely cracks an eye to take a look at her, making sure she isn't just watching him like some creeper, but she's...sitting watch?
That leaves a strange feeling in his stomach. She's watching out for him while he "sleeps." Every day he learns something new about the Red Robes and every day it's more and more confusing. They're supposed to be enemies - the BoB trying to destroy their hard work, the Red Robes out there trying to stop them, being dangerous or whatever. They created terrible, awesome things like the Umbra Staff and the Phoenix Fire Gauntlet, the Philosopher's Stone and the Gaia Sash. They're supposed to be horrible. The Director had said they were the most dangerous individuals on the planet.
And she's sitting watch so he can sleep without having to worry.
What the fuck was really going on?
Taako let his breathing even out and slow, dropping into a semblance of sleep, but he kept his ears open. He'd rest, but maybe not sleep after all. He has too much to think about that devolves into static.]
