Roger is leaning against the railing, gazing on the ocean. He's been trying to write more songs, but nothing's coming out quite right. Normally, he'd go for chemical means of inspiration, but well, he's a role model of sorts now (and Collins is nowhere in sight for the moment).

He'll just have to settle for spending time in the fresh air.

Well, then, let there be a Collins! Who is, in fact, attempting to sneak up behind Roger and give him a surprise bear hug. Which he does.

"Hey there, Rog!," with a laugh.

[findonesong]

Roger shouts in a most undignified manner until he realizes who it is. "Collins! Jesus fuck, are you trying to give me a heart attack?"

[kissestospare]

"Mmm, no." He's laughing still, though, and moves to lean against the railing as well. "Just sayin' hi."

[findonesong]

"Hi." Roger rolls his eyes, but slings one arm around Collins. "How's life?"

And then there's Olive, standing shyly behind him, Starburst curled up in her arms. She doesn't want to bother her shipdad, because he looks pretty lost in thought. So she's content to just be near him.

[findonesong]

Something makes him turn his head, and when he does, he sees Olive. "Hey, sweetheart!"

She gets a hug and a kiss on the forehead. "How are you, honey?"

[ilove_olive]

She beams up at him, and holds up the ball of fur in her arms. "Starburst wanted to watch the ocean!"

[findonesong]

"She's getting big," Roger says, petting said ball of fluff.

"Well, you look pretty deep. Thinking about what shampoo you should use tomorrow?" Maur plops her chin on his shoulder, looking over at whatever it is he's looking at.

[findonesong]

"Ha fucking ha." He slings an arm around her waist. "I'm thinking about world peace."

[boho_diva]

"Yeah right, Miss America."

[findonesong]

"I could be. You don't know what I'm thinking."

Bella is about, trying to avoid her mother to be more sociable.

"Mr. Davis! Hello! Haven't seen you around in quite some time."

[findonesong]

"Hello!" He turns and offers Bella a smile. "Yeah, I've been busy with the music, mostly. And chasing after cats."

[anothermoriarty]

Cats?

[findonesong]

"Cats. Our cat had babies, and we couldn't give away all of the kittens, so. Yeah. Cats."

[feline_ofave_b]

"Hey, Rog." She's on her way from somewhere -- probably heading back to the room she shares with Benny. "Am I interrupting?"

[findonesong]

"Hey, Mimi." Look, no awkwardness! "No, not really. I was just thinking about shit."

[feline_ofave_b]

"Sounds fun." She runs a hand through her hair and gives him a smile. "I was just -- walking. Needed to get away from Benny for a while."

[findonesong]

"Oh." And there's the awkward again. "I'm - sorry?"
