As a good hostess with tons of energy to spare, Subaru is everywhere doing everything. Serving the food, prepping the rooms, checking on the hot springs, maybe even having a drink or two late into the evening. She wants to make sure people are having a good time!

Subaru's been at this since the crack of dawn. Doesn't she ever stop?

[ ooc: BTW, I am cool with action or prose. I will follow your lead! ]

[action?]

[fionna_time]

Fionna was still trying to wrap her head around this hot springs thing. Wasn't that why you took a bath, or went swimming? But of course she wasn't going to begrudge actual food, or the idea of actually being able to do something relaxing. If she was supposed to be kidnapped, apparently this queen didn't mind giving them at least something to keep them happy.

Sure beat being kidnapped by the Ice Queen.

She walked into the Inn, still not sure what to expect. She was still wearing that dress thing because she had no idea how to make her own clothing yet.

"Hello?"

[highest_caliber]

"Hi, there!" She approaches from the side where she had been waiting for newcomers. Subaru is dressed in a simple blue yukata, herself, and has a bright smile on her face. "I'm glad you could make it."

A brief glance over the girl tells her a few things. "I hope it wasn't too bad outside, with the snow." She had tried to keep a clear path to the front door...

[fionna_time]

WOW. That was pretty! Granted, she'd seen many different outfits in Ooo, but never something quite like this. For a moment, and just a small moment, she could see only a little why the queen would bring them all here: not for the relationships biz, but all their cool stories and traditions.

Then she remembered she'd been kidnapped, and brushed that idea RIGHT out of her head. Seriously, who did stuff like that?

"Nah, I've gone through places with a lotta snow before. My enemy lives in an ice fortress and stuff. So...what are you wearing? We don't have that where I live?

Open - Onsen

[ritsu_kouyou]

[Akiha was solely there for the onsen. She was very cold and the idea of soaking up the warmth of the water was enough to draw her out of the mansion. At least she and Subaru had talked before, so she wasn't barging in on a stranger. Technically.

Being a Japanese woman (despite her family being terribly Western), she knew the correct practice and whereas she was terribly self-conscious about being as flat as a board, there wasn't anyone in the onsen right then. Her long hair was tied up off her neck and a folded towel was resting on the top of her head as she relaxed. And the water level covered all of her non-existent chest. Perhaps she would get to enjoy some time in the onsen alone.

Akiha never got what she wanted.]

[She read the pamphlet, and then read it again, and THEN again one more time so she had this right. This was probably one of the more bizarre things she'd come across in awhile, and if she was going to do it at all, better to do it properly, right?

But it was probably strangest of all to her because it would have been the sort of thing Cake would have accompanied her for, or would have read ahead of time and helped her with. This way, she felt a little vulnerable, and was just hoping there weren't going to be girls pointing and laughing at her. It was bad enough that she was NOT flat as a board, and that keeping her bazoobs in check was a pain to begin with.

She was, however, wrapped with a towel as she went in, and she did the unspeakable: removing her hat (GASP) and starting to put it up when she saw there was already a girl bathing, who looked like she could hold her own if she were an enemy.]

"H-hey," she said, slowly lowering herself in, finally taking off the towel, trying not to look
self conscious.

[ritsu_kouyou]

[Of course, Akiha wouldn't get to enjoy the onsen in sweet solitude. At the shaky greeting, she opened on ice blue eye to look at the girl briefly before closing them again.]

Hello. I shall assume you've never been to a traditional onsen given the tremor in your voice.

[fionna_time]

"Naw, there's not really something like this back where I live. No one just goes nude in a secluded place, just because you never know what will happen."

And now that she thought about it, was there even a place in Ooo you could just relax? Maybe Candy Kingdom, when it wasn't being attacked.

"But its normal for you. Am I doin' this ok?"

Open-Onsen(changing room), 1/????

[nosebleedqueen]

Kanako is in the changing room, and seemingly talking to herself.

"Dear mother in heaven, I have discovered paradise!"

2/????

[nosebleedqueen]

"First I awake in the land of my dreams. No men, all lovely maidens. Maidens of all sizes, shapes, ages, and classes!"

3/???

[nosebleedqueen]

"Loli nurses, Tsundere mean girls, Adventuring girls with baby fat, High class ladies, a snake girl, a mecha maiden and her lovely android assistant, A dark skinned beauty, A Queen, and even a fellow lesbian such as myself!"

4/???

[nosebleedqueen]

"And now, in a beautiful snowy night, have I been invited to an Onsen!"

Open - Onsen

[gentlecuteside]

Amamiya slid into the hot water, leaving her towel by the water's edge and sighing as the heat drained the tension right out of her muscles. She'd known the onsen was here, but she hadn't made much use of it until now; She was going to have remedy that. This really was the best way to relax.

I know I am threajacking all over the place, but I am trying to get Fionna to know other humans!

[fionna_time]

After the fiasco earlier, Fionna was much more inclined to stay by herself and hopefully not draw any attention. She supposed a good way for that was also to take off her hat, which she figured was childish looking anyway, but it was HERS so she was now willing to part with it.

At first.

Gradual exposure to the Onsen, however, made it unbearable to have the hat on ALL the time, so she finally gave herself a moment to let her hair breathe, it billowing a little behind her in defiance from the girl's earlier pronouncement that it should be pulled up.

And then she realized she had company.

"Oh, hey guy!" She said, sinking a little lower. "How's it goin'?"

Not really threadjacking if I don't have any replies yet, haha!

[gentlecuteside]

Amamiya was caught openly staring. Not at Fionna's body, like one might expect, but at...that hair. It was billowing out in every direction, and there was a lot of it. Amamiya didn't even think hair came that long.

"W-what?" she said when Fionna spoke to her, blinking in confusion as she was snapped out of her hair-induced stupor. "Oh, um, it is going just...fine..."

She couldn't bring herself to take her eyes off of that golden ocean of hair.

Re: Not really threadjacking if I don't have any replies yet, haha!

[fionna_time]

Fionna, of course, at first thought it WAS her body she was staring at, but not in a pervy way, and she looked apprehensive. She did slink a little into the water, mindful that her hips were a bit big, she was prolly a lot bigger in the bazoobs than she liked, and her hair...

Oh!

"Dude, its just long. No one can really cut my hair or whatever, so I just stick it in my hat and it stays outta trouble. Cake cuts it sometimes, but otherwise its pretty reg."

She swum over, trying to at least attempt to be friendly. "Hi, I'm Fionna!"

[3...2...1..Contact!]

[lost_moral_code]

(Bringing Marceline in from here! Hope no one minds!)

Saying "Small world" would be terribly cliché wouldn't it? Well, especially so when used about The Garden. It seems large, but only because of the freaky weird circumstances of arrival. Twice Marceline has seem Subaru's face and heard her voice, thanks to her help that night and the talking head in a box. Not knowing how to use the vine, other than having it perv on her, she wasn't able to say that she was coming. Oh well, here she is having followed the scents and lights. Walking up to the inn she called out, "Hey! Uh, anyone here?"

Re: [3...2...1..Contact!]

[fionna_time]

Huh? That voice...Marceline? Fionna was just relaxing in the Onsen when she heard the voice, so of COURSE she would only just wrap herself in a towel and go find Marceline!

"Yo," she said, appearing with her hair flowing free and Fionna looking fairly flush, "What's up Marcie?"

Re: [3...2...1..Contact!]

[lost_moral_code]

JJ Flip, what the zip!? The foot falls aren't enough to make her turn; however, the super familiar voice is! The all too happy greeting is out of her mouth in a shot!

"Hey!" The rest of the greeting lodes in her throat. Wow, that hair is just wow! "H..hey Fionna!" A little cough and blink here, "Just..stopping by! What about you?"

Re: [3...2...1..Contact!]

[fionna_time]

"Sup man!" Fionna greeted, grinning in a silly manner. "I didn't know this kinda thing was something you would do! I just did it for fun and to meet peeps!"

She looked confused. "What are you eyeballin?"
