[PP-PT-F24] Shockingly Not A Raidou Thread

[Morningstar 0]

The Paradise Islands were a hop, step, and a jump from Star's house. He went from time to time, although he preferred Raitoborou bay for its lack of sea monsters.

But sometimes, sea monsters were exactly what you needed. He sat on the rocks, away from the water, and stuck his head in a book. It was his own: a leather-bound journal filled to the brim with untidy handwriting and surprisingly polished sketches. How he could do one but not the other astounded the few people he let into his books, but he thought it was very normal.

A group of six battled the local crab. It looked like they might finish soon, so Morningstar kept an eye out, peeking out from his pages every so often to make sure they hadn't gone. Earlier, he had sent a message to a handful of players to see who was actively looking for quests.

MORNINGSTAR: lfg sand's claw + inanos. @ paradise islands right now. i have next dibs on crab so swing by if you can.

Gungir's Shard (Skewer Smores) | EVA II, PROTEIN II

[Freyd 0]

Scouring the underwater ruins near Raitoboru Bay had proven less than fruitful.  Any hopes of finding some connection between the Sahagin and various eldritch horrors from Ilridge and surroundings had produced only one thing: a very waterlogged Whisper who longed for a sunny beach and to remove the dive suit more passably calling itself his heavy armor.  Dragging himself from the depths, Freyd groaned stiffly, rotating his right arm to loosen the effects an ocean's weight worth of compression had placed upon his joints.

"Guess I should just be grateful for the water breathing potions and absence of the bends."  An article he'd read once had left a painful mental image he was grateful no one had to experience.  It was a horrible way to die.

Plucking the last few strands of seaweed stragglers in his shaggy mop of unruly hair and tucked inconveniently in the various folds of his armor.  A high pitch scream swiveled his neck round the corner, realization dawning that he'd clamored up the wrong coast and found himself on a completely different island than expected, just as a sudden aid request appeared, partially blocking his vision.

"What the... Morningstar?"  One of the few he'd allow passage through a multitude of filters implemented to prevent precisely such occurrence.  "Wait a sec..."

Turning round the other direction, the familiar and adventurous blond scoundrel was sitting on a low set of breakwaters a hundred feet or so down the beach, casually flipping pages.  Sauntering over, regretting taking the sandy route, he was half-covered in sandpaper grit by the time he reached the sender.

"How do you always manage to make all this feel so.... normal?!"

Someone screeched in the background, the monstrous crab having apparently managed to get a hit in, for a change.

[Mari 1]

There was supposed to be a quest here; and Mari recognized the name of the person offering. They'd done some things together before - He appraised things for her. Not exactly a friend, but a familiar name and face.

The woman walked long the beach, her feet making a 'thwak' 'thwak' sound as the soles of her sandals slapped against the sand. Mari had her weapon casually hanging over one shoulder, propped up by one hand. In the other, was a half melted purple colored ice cream. Taro, if anyone asked. If Mari was going to be here, she may as well enjoy it. She wore a large brimmed sunhat, and a loose cotton white shirt over her otherwise usual attire. The woman looked like she was preparing for a vacation, not a battle. Surprisingly...simple and normal for the woman. Small things like this - just living in the moment. It's what she wanted.

As Mari approached the location, she noticed a very familiar, very wet face.

"Oh...Freyd!" Her eyes shifted between him and Morningstar. "You two know each other?" She asked. Mari offered Freyd a wry smile, gesturing toward the tall blonde. "Yanno he took the very last of my col. I had like. maybe 5 left afterward." Course, that wasn't the only reason. The main reason had been her fixing up her house - then the exorbitant cost of trying to get most of the place set in fireproof enchantments. The things you do...

Morningstar had been sitting on the rocks - Mari guessed he had been reading, judging by the book that sat loosely in his hands. It wasnt like the ones Raidou would read; professionally bound. It looked handmade. It piqued Mari's curiosity, but she didn't get much of a chance to ask about it. Though the interest is clear by how her cerulean gaze lingered.

"Hello to you too, by the way."

Now that Yuki had gotten her feet wet once more she was ready to start clearing some of these quests that she'd not gotten to since her hiatus. When Morningstar -- her new guild leader -- sent her a message letting her know that he was looking for some able bodies on a quest she jumped on the offer.

Quote

To Morningstar >> Good Day, I'm on my way now. I got tank covered.

She was there practically within minutes but even still so many others had already beaten her there. Either they were that much faster than her, or they were already hanging around. She recognized practically every face here and was confident this stupid not-so-little crustacean was going to be in a pot for consumption later. "Hey guys, it's your favorite pink-haired porcupine girl. We got a crab to cook, huh?" Yuki got herself prepared. With the recognizable faces amongst her, she was feeling confident that they would be done rather quickly. Still, it was always a good idea to buff up.
