[ OPEN LOG ] I wanna be the one to walk in the sun

[crowned-jewel.livejournal.com]

Characters: Garnet, Eiko, OPEN TO THOSE IN LINDBLUM!
Progress: Ongoing
Summary: Before starting her 'good will tour', Garnet takes a stop in Lindblum to visit Eiko. The girls take some time to hit the town, incognito, for some girl bonding time!
Location: Lindblum (Any District)
Date: June 1804, After the Garden Festival
NOTES: This is an OPEN LOG! The girls are out to explore, and while they'll have their own dedicated thread, please, feel free to start a new sub-thread if you want to talk to one, or both of the girls!


In all the hustle and bustle, and the world being turned upside-down, It had been several months since Garnet had Eiko to the castle for her once 'monthly' visits. Even if Eiko came to Alexandria, Garnet had the sinking feeling that the number of distractions would have been insurmountable. She owed Eiko better than that, and it was that very reason that she had packed a bit early, and headed off to Lindblum for some one-on-one bonding time.

Even though Eiko was technically being punished for that stunt she had pulled smuggling her friends from Luca, Garnet had convinced Regent Cid to allow her to take the young summoner out for a day in town. True, they had been out in Lindblum lots of times, but the weather was too nice to stay inside. So, donning her trusty, well-worn marigold suit, white blouse, and leather gloves and boots, The queen was ready to go incognito -- Dagger was ready for a nice afternoon in town.

(( OOC: Tag Garnet, Tag Eiko, Tag them both! They'll be going pretty much everywhere, so feel free to set the stage with your tag! New threads, please, or talk to the players if you wanna thread-crash! ))

True, Freya and Dagger had never been the closest members of their party, but there was a certain bond shared between comrades. As it wasn't, she took no offense to Freya's question.

"I'm here visiting Eiko," she said with a smile. "We haven't had a chance to really spend any time together... and I've been planning on taking a trip, to visit all these new places. I figured, I might as well stop through Lindblum, first."

Speaking of Eiko, she finally got bored with looking at the display of action figures that had so enticed her moments before. Her head whipped around, and then when she spotted her summoner sister, she went racing over to catch up. Only she knew just who Dagger was talking with.

"Freya!!" Garnet was all but forgotten as the child flung herself at the dragon knight for a tight hug. She'd missed her!

Freya nodded in understanding; she was hardly the sentimental or nostalgic type, but she also wanted to keep the relationships she had with Zidane and the rest who had traveled with him going. "I still have yet to see everything," Freya replied. "I mean to, eventually, of course."

She opened her mouth to say something more, but she suddenly found that was a difficult thing to accomplish, as the air was driven from her lungs by someone flinging themselves at her and hugging her. It took just a few seconds for her to catch her breath and see who had greeted her so energetically. She wasn't surprised when she realized it was Eiko, the girl they had just been talking about.

"Hello, Eiko," Freya replied, mild surprise evident on her face. Eiko looked older than she remembered, although she wasn't entirely unrecognizable: her hair color was the same, and she had that same innocent smile that she remembered. All the same, it was nice to reconnect with old friends again.
