Thus, he's here, shuffling in the cave. He's not aware that there's anyone else on the same search--not until he hears a familiar voice.
He thinks it's a hallucination at first. Some trick of a strange, cruel magic. He feels his throat dry out as he lifts a Light-limned hand, as he takes a few agonizingly hopeful steps forward.]
... Belthazar?

But he isn't expecting to see Belth there! ... But he's 100% unsurprised that the elf has managed to delve so deeply into examining each and every little thing that if Eithan wanted to, he could totally sneak up on him. But that would be mean! ... So instead he walks closer, leans against one of the glowing trees with his arms crossed, and just waits for him to turn around. Because, you know, that's so much better. At least this way he still gets to see him jump~
And, well, okay, so he's watching Belth with a dumb little smile on his face right now - but whenever Belth does turn around, it'll be back to that mischievous grin of his. ]

It's just- that a thank-you can go a long way, especially when she's been uncharacteristically charitable, and she couldn't resist the urge to make sure he was using it properly, and... well, whatever! Who cares, she doesn't. Not at all.
So when he calls out, she casually kicks the stupid stick that gave her away and strides out from around the corner, hands in her pockets, looking about as disinterested as one can get. It's not even feigned- as far as caves go, this one's pretty shitty, and she'd been stuck in Wave Echo for so long that she knows shitty caves.]
It's just me. Don't think the fleet's turned off Friendly Fire, so maybe chill?

Thor | OTA
[It's one of the more impressive worlds they have visited, both technologically and in local ecosystem. Thor is well acquainted with advanced worlds and doesn't find himself awestruck in the subterranean cities. That isn't to say he's not interested though. He goes for long wanders through the roads and cityscapes, admiring the skylights primarily and checking the stores second.
That's where he comes somewhat undone. Given the dangers of the world up top, Thor's taken to moving in and out with his axe in hand. That big, metal-headed axe. It's enough to have some people giving him a nervous wide berth... and definitely enough to set off the metal detectors the bigger stores have in their doorways.
Thor can be heard arguing with the frazzled security guard over the loud beeping of this store's gate with some impatience.]
Everyone here carries blades - what kind of idiot would ban weapons in a store? Oh, look, fine. You can hold it for me.
[The relieved guard reaches out his hand for the axe, only to promptly crash to the floor under its weight as Thor lets go of it. Acting for all the world like he hasn't noticed, Thor strolls through the gate with a hand raised in a wave.]
Thanks for that!
b. heads up (cw: some gore)
[The wilds of this planet are no joke. Anyone venturing out into them is warned to be prepared, and armed, and ready to run. It's not always easy to do so though, so densely packed are the trees and the plants here.
It's an unfortunate fact that people will just sometimes be set upon by a dinosaur with no warning. That's the situation a Fleeter might find themselves in today as a tremendous Tyrannosaurus-like beast comes smashing through the trees with a roar towards them. It's about to lunge forward and open its hideous jaws to snap them up when a high-pitched ringing noise sounds out above--
And an axe slams straight through its neck, severing the head clean off with a spray of hot blood. The beast topples to the ground, breaking branches around it as the head rolls into a tree nearby. Thor lands with a thud and a shower of dirt nearby, having dropped right out of the sky in the slipstream of the axe.
Walking over to yank the embedded blade out of the ground, he looks over the carnage without much satisfaction and then turns to the person who had been the beast's intended target.]
Hey - none of that hit you, I hope.
[Because that could be seriously messy.]
c. nightlife
[When he's not out in the wilds and it's closer to night, Thor takes to Kenn-Tellnic instead. It's not hard to find bars and restaurants here, and they tend to be spectacularly placed. One particular bar overlooks one of the more ornate parks and this is where Thor ends up many a night, having a drink and musing over the scenery.
The neon lights are a bit much, but points for keeping to an aesthetic.]
d. wildcard
[Got another idea? Hit me up.]

What's more distracting is the familiar god that happens to wind up nearby. Hard not to pick up on the little stir he'd caused when he'd arrived.]

Though any romanticism about the place might be an added bonus, if Leia were honest with herself in any way, it's thanks to the potential risk involved that she asked Han to go with her. Out of everyone on board, Han is the person she trusts the most in any situation. He's dependable, and she knows first-hand that, when they get past any sniping at each other, they work well together. She doesn't know how serious the dangers they could run into are (when the population of the planet are allergic to pollen on the surface, it makes it difficult to trust all the claims of danger), but she's prepared for the trip, down to leaving while it's still light out. Just in case.]
You have the directions?
no subject
[ He doesn't really think anything's gonna eat them... Probably. Maybe.
Somehow, being underground feels a hell of a lot more confining than being aboard a ship-- even a small one starts to feel homey, and it's never bothered him to do long hauls. He doesn't strictly need to go aboveground, but Leia suggested it and... Well, they're kind of beyond pretending they don't want to spend time together, right? ]

[A technological city? Oh, hell yes. Prompto is all over this thing, taking in the sights, soaking up the sweet, sweet tech. He picks up a few gadgets just so he can tear them apart and try to put them back together again. He's also on the lookout for camera upgrades.
But what really grabs his attention is the VR. He's been dying for some good gaming. He's probably spending way too much time (sorry, Kaname) plugging in and slaying dragons and shooting up other players.]
[ B. Waterpark ]
[He's soaked and loving it. As soon as he's pulled himself out of whatever pool he's plundged into, he bouncing and headed for the next feature.]
That one next!
[He points to what is possibly the biggest, twistiest slide ever.]
[ C. Otherstuff ]
[Is he running around taking photos? Yes, of course.
Shopping? Yes. He's on a mission. June is right around the corner. Okay, a few corners, but who knows where they'll be when it rolls around!]
A!
When Prompto finally exits his VR world, he won't see Kaname around until he goes looking. Then there's just a small group of people surrounding a DDR-like game. If he moves further in, he'll spot that familiar red hair. She's doing very well for herself here.]

lup | ota
[Lup's loving the wildness of this place, and it shows by how often she's out and about on the surface. She takes many an odd job from the locals, especially those that involve monster-slaying or treasure hunting, the classic adventurer quest sort of thing. It's familiar territory while at the same time exciting! She thrives on that shit.
She'll also be dragging those she knows onto said adventures with her, so if she's suddenly roping you into something, good luck saying no to that.
This might also involve Polymorphing into various large creatures - maybe even tussling one on one with a few dinosaurs in dragon form.]
( a-2. floud-wrangling, a special shoutout to Taako and Magnus )
[Some folks have expressed some interest in collecting a few of the fluffy sheep-critters for sheering, or cuddling, or whatever it is that people do with sheep, though, so at some point she decides to take initiative: they're gonna go on a good old fashioned heist. With flouds. How does one catch a floud, you might ask? Well, they'll figure it out as they go. What's the worst that could happen?]
You can't really tell by looking... how much do those things even weigh?
( b. what's a little danger between shopping trips? )
[Those bullet trains are pretty rad, and the way they move? Makes for a pretty wild thrill ride. But staying safe and cozy inside isn't her style, so that leaves only one option: the top!
Riders of the train might notice something weird during their travels- namely, a joyous howling from the outer roof. Through the glass, you might even catch a glimpse of a moving shadow, though it's hard to make out details. When the train arrives at a stop, and the passengers shuffle out, she rolls off and lands on the platform below, legs a little wobbly, though that doesn't stop her from pumping both fists into the air.]
Woo!! That was awesome!
( c. magic-tem delivery service )
[Lup will be sending out a series of messages some time in the middle of their stay on this planet to each and every person who commissioned her to create a magic item for them on this post, to meet up and collect their order. The cost of this commission would be roughly 1-2 upgrades, depending on the scale of the requested item, and she'd have requested at least half-payment in advance for the expensive ones.]
(This option can be handwaved or threaded as you please, but you can assume you got the item!)
( d. wildcard )
[Ping me for plotting or call her out, she's around all over.]

He decides he can wait for the next train, and steps up behind Lup instead.]

michael burnham | star trek discovery
[ dinosaurs!! it's the discovery of the lifetime and even though michael doesn't have her tricorder, she still has the device the fleet provided for her. so she heads down to the planet with a stun gun (which settings she adjusted for larger dinosaurs just in case) and her recording device. she stops at a clearing where a bunch of triceratops were lounging around, making precise detailed notes. ]
And here we see the genus of the Ceratopsidae family, the Triceratops grazing outside. It has notable features . . .
[ she is a little caught up in her work and not paying that much attention in her surroundings. feel free to interrupt her. ]
( b. right said fred? )
[ the city hadn't interested her as much as the surroundings above the surface. it reminded her of the fancier space stations and other cities she's been to and thus, didn't hold her interest for long beyond collecting data on their history and culture. there was one person that kept cropping up though. fred. curious, michael heads down to meet him and catches him during a rally where fred was belting out ludicrous theory after theory. michael chuckles softly. ]
I thought these things died out years ago. They used to say the same about Starfleet.
( c. the glowing forest )
[ it had been difficult getting here, but now that she was finally here, michael was . . .
. . . going to enjoy herself. when it starts getting dark, she rolls up her pants and digs her legs in with a bright giggle. a few large fish swim closer but lose interest when they realize it's not food and she walks a little further in, taking pictures. ]
Curiouser and curiouser.

[Who knows how long he's been there. Nico's very good at hiding in plain sight. But he's curious enough to step out, eyes on the creatures lumbering around nearby. He'd had a book about dinosaurs when he was younger. The old 1930's illustrations didn't do this justice.]

Sara | OTA
Sara definitely would like to stock her personal armory and is going through the shops, appraising the wares. You'll definitely see her around here testing throwing knives for weight, and longer blades for balance. Say hi! Just maybe don't sneak up on her.
II. all in a day's work
In order to purchase all of the weapons she has on her wishlist, Sara has to pick up some odd jobs. She opts for spider-clearing in the caves and security for product transport. Have a similar inclination? Just hanging out? It's nice to see familiar faces.
III. poolside relaxation
Sara enjoys a good drink in a cute swimsuit at the poolside. She has a number of scars and wotnot, not to mention some fresh color from her jobs on the planet, but she's not bothered. She does wish there was a sun, though.
weapons shopping. of course
Among them, apparently, throwing knives.
They're not actually Natasha's first choice, not as a rule, but there are circumstances where beggars can't be choosers and she's never against having something extra up her sleeve.]

Vash the Stampede | OTA
[Exploring the surface? What's that strange high pitched whine? Is it getting louder? Is that rumbling? Is the ground starting to shake?
That is because it's Vash running past screaming with a dinosaur like creature chasing behind him.] HELLLLLLLLLLLLLP MEEEEEEEEEEEE! [And there those two keep going. Feel free to just watch as Vash will come back around or try to help him out. Just don't be surprise if Vash stops you from trying to kill it.]
Parks
[Vash will also enjoy sitting in the parks underground. Finding a place to sit and watch people while eating donuts. His favorite place to sit is at Sun's Rest at night. His smile growing as the lights begin to show up.] It's beautiful.
For Undertaker
[One afternoon Vash decides to give Undertaker a call over the devices.] Hey, this planet is pretty high tech. Do you want to see if one of these places have a x-ray machine or something we can use?

For Kurt - Waterpark Adventures
[ Though even as he asked the question, it was a little late to be backing out. They had climbed all this way, waiting in the line, and it felt like an irony to be so high up when you were so far beneath the ground. Water gurgled, flowing down a tube that twisted and twirled down to the large pool below. He helped support a tube big enough for two, only a few other pairs in front of himself and Kurt. ]
Once we start sliding, there's no going back.
[ Well, there was, because Kurt could teleport, but no need to remind the man of that. ]
no subject
[ Kurt lets the threat hang unspoken, trusting the other man to connect any number of dots. His featureless eyes flick to the tube the other man's holding, then back to his face. Near his ankles, Kurt's tail flicks in a somehow impatient gesture. ]
I said I'd never done anything like this, not that it frightened me. You'd know if it did.
