IC INTRO - MARCH

Sometime after the showdown, those with communication devices from the station will all get a collective message -

Okay, everyone come back! We might need to do a final sweep or two of the beach, but it looks like most of the Fissure is stabilized! °˖✧◝(⁰▿⁰)◜✧˖°

Everybody go ahead and come back up - and bring anyone else you found with you! I know I saw a couple new faces on the drone cameras. (*・▽・*)

Also, if you get a chance, check out the new door leading out of the residential area! It's a surprise for all your hard work. (´◕ ◡ ◕`) There's also food in the kitchens if you're hungry and want something warm!


With that in mind, grab your new friends and go ahead and come on back.

STATION EXTERIOR

Upon returning to the station, the first thing most will probably see is Up, standing on the rooftop to congratulate everyone on a mission accomplished and also handle any questions the new arrivals might have that haven't gotten answered yet. They stand tall and graceful beside the ramp... Most of the time. Occasionally, one might catch them trying not to fidget with the belt that now hangs fashionably askew on their hips.

For those who want to seek out the surprise Charm promised, there's a second ramp leading down off the far side of the roof, as well as the door he mentioned on the network. Both lead to the shiny new viewing deck, with its mismatched furniture, half-roof, and view of the beach.

Charm himself is here, long android limbs spread across one of the lounge chairs as he fiddles with one of the wind element crystals in his lap. It occasionally reacts and blasts the tails of his red scarf in random directions, but he doesn't seem to mind.

STATION INTERIOR

Those adventuring to the kitchens will find that there are four large pots arranged in a line beneath a set of heat lamps on the stove. Three contain curry - labeled "mild," "spicy," and "the fire of a thousand suns" in neat handwriting - while the last contains plain rice. An assortment of mismatched bowls and utensils sit on the counter nearest the pots. (Welcome to Keystone Station, you'll have an easier time finding matching cutlery at your local Goodwill.)

In the common room, meanwhile, the boxes of clothes and trading post are set up again. Those who investigate something fluffy in a particular box on the end of the couch may discover a girl and friend taking a nap...

[ He could do the same thing he did with Robin, buuuut...

... in all honesty, he's a little distracted by studying this person a bit. Not just because she's cute (because she is very, very cute), but because she seems familiar - oh, right... Robin did say he was here with his sister. ]


Hamburgers... I think your brother asked the exact same question.

[ There's a faint smile. ]

Do you want to try one?

Haha, I'm sure he did.

[So he's met Robin, huh? She wonders if he ate one of these things himself — if so, she can't very well let him upstage her.]

Sure. Can't hurt to give it a try.

[She takes a burger and scrutinizes it a little before taking a bite.

...Man, that's greasy.]

[ Yeeeah grease is usually a thing, when it comes to burgers. Akira personally finds it pretty great. Though... he can't say he'll be jumping to obtain more of these... The nacho cheese is a bit much.

Still, he's briefly watching her face as he chews, before pausing to take another sip of his drink. ]


I'm trying to remember the first time I tried fast food... If I recall correctly, it was a little overwhelming.

[Wren nods, and takes a moment to finish the mouthful.]

It's not bad, but I've never eaten anything like this before...

[That said, she wastes no time taking another bite. She's hungry.]
beguiledcard: (waiting for the go - for the big show)

[personal profile] beguiledcard 2018-03-28 11:33 pm (UTC)(link)
My thoughts exactly.

[ Another bite for him, as well! Then, after that, he's taking another sip of his drink. ]

I suggest drinking one of these, if it's something you think you'd like. [ gesturing with the few he'd grabbed to go with the offered burgers ] It helps with the grease.

...I have no point of reference from which to make that judgment, either.

[She peers curiously at the drinks.]

[personal profile] beguiledcard 2018-03-29 03:29 am (UTC)(link)
Are you more a fan of salty or sweet?

[ ALSO... ]

Ah... almost forgot. You can call me Akira, by the way.
thoroff: (035)

[personal profile] thoroff 2018-03-29 03:39 am (UTC)(link)
Wren.

[She smiles.]

And... sweet sounds good, I think.

[In the meantime, she'll keep eating.]

[personal profile] beguiledcard 2018-03-29 03:51 am (UTC)(link)
[ Heeeee will leave out that he already knew that, since... eh. ]

It's nice to meet you.

[ HM. Sweet... ]

Here. Try this one.

[ A lightly sweetened citrus-y sort of drink (label says "1UP"). He's not the world's biggest fan, but it's okay? Ann seems to like it, and she's a big fan of sweet things. ]
thoroff: (003)

[personal profile] thoroff 2018-04-01 04:14 pm (UTC)(link)
Likewise.

[She accepts the proffered drink, giving it a halting sip. Then, after a moment's pause, she goes ahead and takes a proper swig.]
beguiledcard: (to bring it)

[personal profile] beguiledcard 2018-04-11 05:45 am (UTC)(link)
[ A curious tilt of his head. ]

How is it?

[ He can recommend another if she's not a fan. ]
thoroff: (036)

[personal profile] thoroff 2018-04-11 10:05 pm (UTC)(link)
[With an approving nod, Wren looks back to Akira.]

Not half bad! Thank you.
beguiledcard: (man-made or supernatural)

[personal profile] beguiledcard 2018-04-14 02:26 am (UTC)(link)
[ That gets a smile. ]

I'm glad. That's a common drink from my world. Though, in this case, my boyfriend literally made it by hand.

[ AKIRA........ ]

He's talented.

[I mean, she's not wrong? Not in the way she's thinking, but... that's not... untrue...]
beguiledcard: (i just pray)

[personal profile] beguiledcard 2018-04-17 05:50 am (UTC)(link)
[ One corner of his lips twitches the tiniest bit. ]

Well... [ well ] ...yeah, he really is.

[ But, time to start an actual explanation. ]

He's able to make any drink he's ever tried, even once.
