TEL VISHAN BEACH PARTY

[akito]

Characters: OPEN
Date: Saturday, August the 9^th
Location: The Shell 'Coastline' nearest the Water Sector
Situation: Baby Turtle Beach Party!

-

At the edge of Asti's shell there are coastlines of natural deposits that make up the closest thing to a 'beach' that they'll ever find in Keeliai. It's here that the official Tel Vishan Beach Party is set to take place. All turtle 'parents' will have gotten a message from their respective hatchlings about said party (perhaps a nice change from the whining and the temper tantrums).

Temporary shaded areas built with poles and sheets for weary parents or hatchlings who do decide to come, and some simple snacks and refreshments have been set up as well. There's a fishing net set up to act as a volleyball net for the day, and a ball waiting in the sand for some players.

The rest is up to those who come.

[There was a point when Enjolras did stop trying his best with his parents. He had meant to, but he'd been young, and stupid, and hardly wanted them to know more than they'd needed. He had not thought that they would have been angry enough to disown him, but the fear and worry it might have caused them had seemed well worth avoiding. ]

No, I suppose not. There is a point where things do stop being under one's control. By the time that we had found the day for France to give birth to mankind's glorious future, there would not have been time to post at all.

I did have letters on my person, a few of them, in fact. One home, one to Combeferre's parents who taught me so much, and for the friends that I had wished to see leaving our barricade alive. I'd planned for it, to send them out, but we were not so lucky as all of that.

Still. I imagine something of my last words will at least be a comfort to my family.

[It had occurred to her once or twice to write such a letter of her own, except she would have had nowhere to keep it. Doing so would have long ago risked revealing her identity. And her intentions.]

If that's what they were meant to be, then I'm sure they will.

[solo_patria]

[Enjolras had written his letter for his family at the last minute, after it had occurred to him it would be unfair to leave his parents with nothing of him. It's odd to imagine them receiving it, and the news, somehow, while he was living and beginning his life here. Still, he'd tried at least.]

They were, yes. All possible grievances regarding their unfairness in refusing to let me keep the rat I found in the attic as a pet were quite forgiven.

[unetrustworthy]

...you kept a rat you found in the attic as a pet?

[She had grown up poor, but even the boys had never been that desperate for a pet.]

[solo_patria]

I was about five, and it lasted for two days, well, technically for a day and a half, but there was no hiding some things from anyone. And it was all so terribly unjust, of course.

[There's a moment where Enjolras is rather close to laughing, as he relates this bit of information.]

I was a very...odd...child, though it DID seem like a good idea at the time. A cat appeared shortly after that discovery at least, so something came of that, as awkward an outcome as that seems to me now.

[Because, really, the ramifications...well, it IS all fairly disturbing now that he recognizes them.]

"That became more disturbing than I had hoped."

[unetrustworthy]

[...ew.]

For once, I don't think I want to know the details.

[solo_patria]

Yeees... I can certainly see why not.

[unetrustworthy]

[And on that note....]

I should get back to Riva before she tries to drown her brothers and sisters.

But...we'll talk again soon?

[solo_patria]

That IS a good idea, yes.

[And Enjolras has a Taraja to keep from joining in that game. If he can help it. He's not completely sure that is an action he can physically commit to.]

And of course. It was good to see you now.
