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! ]

[Keith wasn't sure how far to push this. There were elements he didn't know about... the whole mystical half of this thing with the dragon stuff. But, at its very base, it was still something he'd seen time and again at the group home... an orphan kid left alone and neglected by people who didn't know what to do with him.
Still... that tone of just... acceptance... it bothered Keith. Even when he'd been in the middle of it, he'd known it was wrong. He knew loving families were possible. He just didn't have one anymore.]
That doesn't make them right for it. [Though, really... what could be done about it now, other than making sure the cycle didn't continue?] You know that, right? What they did? It wasn't right.

They were only scared of being hurt and believed they were cursed.
[It's fine. Now they can find a way to be happy without him there.]

Did anyone ever even try to figure it out? To help you?
no subject
There was nothing to be done. My village didn't have the knowledge for that. Those born the Seiryuu are monsters to be kept hidden away until the next one is born.

Thank you.
[That's the right reaction, right?]

Sure thing.
