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.

"He was," Skulduggery agreed with a nod. "The process itself requires calling in back-up, and I never have the patience for that. I assumed he was dead because he didn't get up and try to attack me. As it turned out, I was right."

His tone was flippant, unconcerned to the point of worrying apathy, but Skulduggery was relatively sure Raine knew the difference by now - subconsciously, if nothing else. Otherwise, now that they were getting into the city proper, there were people around. Hopefully that would be enough of a deterrent if she decided that he needed a strong lecture.

Raine gave him a resigned sort of a look, the kind that came from living too long around people who were cavalier with their personal safety. There probably wasn't much that could seriously harm him, anyway, and she was in no position to lecture. "Speaking with you is always fascinating," she said instead. It came out a little dry, but she did mean it in all seriousness as well.

Skulduggery's voice came out tinged with a smile. "Isn't it just."

Intriguing, how walking through the city with a companion made such a difference to the reception Skulduggery received without a disguise on. When he was alone, he was a potential threat to the general peace among the kedan, maybe even a pawn of Malicant's. With another Foreigner so obviously unafraid, Skulduggery almost seemed to fade into the background. He became, if not trustworthy, at least someone of little consequence.

He paused at the first real fork in the roads, and gestured towards the Fire Sector. "I don't suppose you live that way."

She glanced the way he indicated, then shook her head in the negative. "Earth Sector," she said, by way of explanation. "The other direction is shorter. Unless you feel like somewhat of a detour, I suppose I'll see you later?" Hopefully a little more quickly than the space between their last meetings, for his company was enjoyable and she'd been entirely serious about the conversation being fascinating.

[skeletonenigma]

The feeling was mutual, if in a slightly different way. Skulduggery found most conversations fascinating, if only for his involvement in them. But Raine was pleasant to talk to, both for her genuine curiosity and for her insight into several varieties of topics. Skulduggery had no doubt that they would find each other again very soon.

He struck out, tipping his hat in farewell. "Until we meet again."
