...I don't like the look of the sky, but aside from that this has been a lovely, if hot excursion. From what others are saying though, I can gather that it won't be lasting for all that much longer?

[The waves can be heard in the background, the rhythmic scraping of a sharp instrument against wood sometimes breaking the peaceful sound.Though...I

What did you get?

And ... a stone above? Do you live in a whole or something?

[quiet_carpenter]

Hammer, nails, odds and ends that might benefit the city at large. Fascinating how well they were made...

Some new clothing and rations that will keep for a time.

...And strawberries.

[A pause]

As for the other...no, but I have heard stories of living underground. It sounds worse than a red sky.

[hydrotechnicks]

Strawberries? Oh, man, I bet the ones here on the island are excellent!

... Huh. Yeah, I bet it would be.

[quiet_carpenter]

You are welcome to some, should you wish.

[hydrotechnicks]

[ This'll just be Demyx swiiiimming up to you on the beach, Dain. In his cute bodysuit and letting himself be carried in by the waves. ]

[For once, Faldain was rid of the heavy outer cloak, dressed simply in a pair of loose brown trousers that were well-worn at the edges, wrinkled from drying out as he sat there from a previous swim. There was a small basket of strawberries at his side, and he held a piece of wood in his hands, carefully using a knife to carve away the bark]

[ Dooo-doom. Do you hear that, Faldain? Dooo-doom! Surely you know what that sound is? Doo-doom-dooooo-dom. After all, even though you said his name, all you reaaaally see is a brownish yellow fin, right?

DOO-DOO-DOOM-DOOM-DOOO---!!! Oh noes, the crescendo!! And you know what that means--!! ]

[Faldain gasped, dropping the wood and blade he held, hand rising to protect his face from the salt water. And while he looked wholly unamused, there was a faint light in those red eyes]

Demyx!

[ Giggles and finally drags himself out of the water, all covered in netted seaweed and even a few fish. Groaning in disgust, he even plucks a sucker fish that seems to have burrowed into his side with its teeth. No blood seeps from the wound. ] Off, you! [ And he tosses it. ]

Thaaat's my name. You say it a lot, you know.

[quiet_carpenter]

Well, I suppose I could call you "He who splashes."

[Smirking at that, he leaned closer to tug a strand of seaweed away, tossing it aside]

You look in dire need of a strawberry, my friend.

Comment Log. ... So is this porn yet? XD

[hydrotechnicks]

You can't deny it would be completely accurate!

[ ... Your sarcastic smiles are not appreciated right now, Dain. He eyes the strawberries when his attention is caught, immediately plodding to his knees and practically wagging his tail, a silent puppy dog-like begging. ]

Yeeesss, please!! I'll core them with my nail and peel back their ugly little green heads and taste their luscious sweet skiiiiinnssss.
