This was the life. Rinoa relaxed on a sun lounger, soaking up the rays. Behind her sunglasses, her eyes were closed. She could hear the waves lapping gently against the beach in the background. It was as though the dragon invasion had never happened.

A group of holidaymakers passed by, laughing and joking as they headed for the sea. Rinoa sat up to take a look around. Hmm. Maybe it was time she went for a swim. But first she needed to reapply her sun cream. She smoothed back her hair and picked up her bottle of sun lotion. Now was there anyone around who might want to help?

With a loud groan, the blond teen raised his arms over his head and stretched his chest, spine cracking nicely with his exhale of breath. His grin grew ear to ear, pleased with warm sun on his face. A motion caught his attention from the sky. He turned his head slowly and jumped softly, the smile smacked off his face from surprise.

Holy Hyne! It's that bunny girl!

"Ah--!" What did he do? He was just standing there staring. Should he go over or was she just saying hi? Ahhh women! Making a few despairing starts, Zell finally jogged into the water, disturbing the level water with his giant plots. "Ehh, hey there! Uhm, M... Mjrn, right?" He had always been real good with names.

Jeeez her ears are real! How fucking craaazy!

Mjrn forced down any self-consciousness about the staring and smiled. By now, she was, if not perfectly immune to any bouts of self-consciousness, at least able to move past them quickly enough. Besides, he seemed friendly enough. She could overlook staring in light of that.

"Aye. You are Zell? Then we must have arrived together, for I boarded Garden after Guadosalam."

"Hey, you remembered my name..." Zell was rather giddy over that, it's not every day a hot chick will remember these kind of things if you weren't worthy right? The young man's grin split his face in two. "Oh really? You were on the Garden? Huh..." His blue eyes rose to the sky, a wet glove palming the back of his head. "S'pretty big so I guess we may have jes missed each other?

"Soo Guadosalam, what was that like. I haven't been many places yet, jes Luca really. That place was real pretty!" It was probably nerdy of him to strike up a conversation with a fine girl like this about geography, but hey, sue him, he was genuinely interested.

At least Mjrn didn't seem to mind? More reserved by nature, she found it easier to converse with people more outgoing than herself. It wasn't that she was unwilling to try carrying a conversation, but others seemed to do so with much more ease.

"Guadosalam was...mysterious, otherworldly. I suppose that it suits, for a location nestled in the roots of the Iifa Tree. The Guado are not a people with which I am overly familiar, yet they were accommodating. There is a platform where one can very the images of those departed, as well."

She glanced down a little, remembering that very clearly, then turned back to him with a small smile. "Might you tell me of Luca? I am to visit it next month."
