((Let me just put the title and desc up))
17:13:40
((Okay, hmm... so who does first post this time?))
17:15:11
((Very well. Very well the stage is yours then~))
17:15:37
Miki would stretch, looking up at the cabin with a hum Finally here. This is even better than the pictures made it look.
She wore a simple orange tank top and black shorts with her hair in a ponytail Hmm, he should be here soon..
17:16:44
From the outside of the cabin, a bunch of clanking noises could be heard. The noises got louder and more obvious as they got closer and closer to the door. When the door swings open, Miki sees... a heavy backpack with two legs? Erm... Miki, a little help here?~
That familiar voice she hears may sound slightly muffled from behind the huge backpack
17:21:43
Miki was surprised by the clanks before seeing the large backpack. She tried to keep it in, but couldn't help it and started to laugh Oh babe~! That is so cute~
She giggles, snapping her fingers as the backpack started to float to lighten it on his back You don't need all that you know right?
17:23:09
Oh! Damn!
The relief he felt as the weight literally floated away from him certainly felt good. The relief was such that he practically collapsed on his knees catching his breath Ya know... hon, trekking through the fuckin' woods with all that is like going through an entire lewd session with you~ Almost~
True, he may have overpacked, but they were to be away from civilization for a few days, after all
17:30:03
Heh, well I am glad I am more invigorating and more of a challenge on your endurance, but you can literally just bring a few things. The rest can stay in the cabin. Now that I am familiar with it, I can snap in any items we need inside it.
She pokes his nose I never seen you pack so this is absolutely adorable you know that?
She teased, grinning as she didn't have anything on her as she snaps and brings out a water bottle she takes a sip from
17:32:44
He just let out a slight laugh upon having his nose poked, and then eased himself back up Well, you've never seen me pack before because... uh...
He held up a finger for a few seconds before putting it back down Anyway! I'm glad your magic can make this all the more convenient for us~
A hand of his extends out as if also asking for a water bottle I can do some similar shit with black holes and such, but...
He gave a slight shrug as if hinting that may come into play into the future at some point
17:40:13
Oh niice but yeah I got you.
She snaps as she got out a water bottle for him and tosses it to him. It was nice and cool. Straight from the fridge cooler baby. And yeah as long as you focus anyone with magic can learn to after all. Plus I have done trips like these back when my dad and I used to camp.
17:42:05
He happily took a gulp of the water bottle soon after catching it. It was as cool as she claimed it to be Whew~ Fresh off the cooler, huh? I guess even a fire witch could use a cooler sometimes~
It was a joke accompanied by a stifled laugh Oh, hey! That's so cool! I didn't know that before. Guess we could say that you're quite familiar with... wood?
There was a slight grin on his face shortly after that joke But hey, only familiarity I have in the forests is blowing them up... or seeing them get blown up
His eyes shifted to the side as if recalling certain past events But, since you're the more experienced of the two of us with wood, maybe you can give me a tour?~
17:50:25
Oh I know wood quite well~
She winks, amused by his puns as she smiles and stretches But yeah I can take the lead in the hike. It's been a few years thought. Since I been here in EF I haven't really visited my dad. I have a few, but not often.
She would say, starting to walk
17:52:13
Oh, hey, I'm funny! Maybe I should've been a comedienne instead of going in the music biz!~
He exclaimed in a teasing tone while also slightly blushing at the sight of Miki stretching Well, it seems the stage is yours then~
He said with a nod as he gestured to the door. Of course, he would prank her by giving a slight tug on her ponytail as she passed by...
17:56:49
She would walk past, but letting a mewl out at her hair being pulled Hmmm cheeky thing~ Save the hair pulling for later~
She winks, the witch amused and starting to follow one of the trails with a hum Funny and talented as always my dear cockstar~
18:01:16
Just teasin' and shit, dear~
He commented with a stifled laugh. Although, she would probably pay him back for that prank somehow in the near future... Hmm...
A mere few steps back, he followed her. The "view" was good from the back... So! Ah... any reason why you chose this particular trail?
There seemed to be a few options before, but he was curious if there was a particular reason for this one...
18:07:36
Just the first one I saw buuut if I am correct...then in 15 to 20 minutes, we should be at a nice lake we can take a dip in.
She hummed, snapping her fingers as black sunglasses appeared on her face
18:09:27
I did hear there was a lake nearby~ Would be nice to check out. Might look good on an album cover too~
Upon seeing the sunglasses appear on Miki's face, he trotted up next to her putting on his own sunglasses Tryin' to look cool?~ Hiding from the paparazzi?~ Showing off a new signature line?~ All the above? None of the above?~
18:14:58
Would be yeah. I dunno lake covers are for more like folk bands and such. I mean with some dark editing and such maybe.
She shrugs, raising a brow and looking to Aleda Heh, trying to look cool and keep the sun outta my eyes. I may be a fire witch, but that don't mean my eyes still don't get blinded by the sun.
18:18:00
Hmm... well then, if not an album cover, then maybe just a selfie of us by the lake will do!
He grinned upon hearing her comments Well, speaking of...
He reached into his pocket to press something on his cell phone to play Black Hole Sun (
https://youtu.be/eVjK9pDHRF0?si=CfVIjWsA750pcjAq ) Just thought it kinda fit~
He hummed the song as he reached for Miki's hand--probably not too far from the lake at this point
18:24:45
She takes his hand, smiling back as she hummed along with him A selfie sounds so fun.
She walked along with him before they soon arrived to the lake. Here we are. And this looks fantastic. That water looks so fresh!
18:28:02
As if by perfect timing, the song ended as soon as the lake came into view. Her comment about the water rang true, and he couldn't help but crack a smile at the pleasant sight. It wasn't the first time he saw a lake, but this was the first time in a long time that he seemed to be able to enjoy looking at one in relative peace. No note taking. No worries. Just him and Miki alone. The movement of water was calming and the light glittering off the surface of the water was very enticing. While still holding hands, he brought her in close, and with his free hand, took a selfie of them standing next to the lake With clothes on, but I'm sure this will sell copies~
He let out a little laugh
18:37:41
She was admiring the view before she was pulled in and did a peace sign for the picture Heh, I think so too~
She giggles and snaps her fingers as she was now in a red string bikini Wanna take a quick dip before we keep going? If you need to I can snap your swim clothes here?
18:39:16
Upon seeing Miki swap into a red string bikini, he let out a slight whistle and blushed a bit You could snap them here, although, it ain't much~ Just my black swim shorts, yeah
He smiled at her and held out his hands as if expecting them to appear out of thin air any moment
18:44:07
Mmmm nothing wrong with that babe~
She would snap as instead of appearing in his hands, his clothes would vanish and be replaced with his swim shorts. As Miki would snap in a bottle of sunscreen Now before we dive in, could you get my back~? I'll do your's~
18:45:30
Pfft~ Heh...
The magical snapping of his clothes into his swimwear made him stifle a chuckle. When the sunscreen appeared, he nodded and took it. A slight squeeze let out a generous amount of sunscreen on to the palm of his waiting hand, and then he applied the substance on Miki's back via soothing circular motions. However, he did wonder if the fire witch actually needed sunscreen or if it was just an excuse to get some sort of back rub
18:51:21
She seemed like she did need it from her slight tan skin already as she hums. Once he was down, she would gently take the bottle and squeeze some on her hands and begin to massage the sunscreen into his back Mmm, have you been working out more~?
18:52:46
Upon his turn to receive the sunscreen, he let out several grunts of approval while staring ahead at the body of water Ah, you've noticed? I may have started training in martial arts a little more on the side recently~
Even though she couldn't see his face, he was grinning from the massage, and it helped that she was a fire witch--her touch being naturally warm by nature in an almost literal sense
18:59:38
Mmm I can tell just from how the muscles on your back are. Just be careful not to overdo that kinda stuff okay?
She smiles, finishing while rubbing the rest of her both with the sunscreen with a hum. Once all covered, she would start running before jumping up with a booth of sparks before cannonballing into the lake
19:01:24
((Whoo!~ Awesome~))
19:05:40
Hrm~ Well, I'll try~ It's certainly easier than dealing with the jackasses... er... I mean... the record label!~ That much is certain!~
The soothing massage ends, and then he hears some running steps from Miki--he looks in time to see Miki, literally giving off sparks, jumping into the lake. Some of the water splashes on him and he laughs Ah! Fuck! Hey!
He shakes his head a bit before quickly getting up to sprint to the edge of the lake, and then he jumps in back first, like a stage dive, to splash down next to Miki
19:11:58
Miki would have swam up just in time to be splashes by Aleda's own dive into the water and laugh Hey! Hahaha! Oh that's how you wanna be?
She giggles, cupping her hand and swinging it over the water to make a little wall of water splash him
19:14:32
Whoa!~ Shit!~
The splash of water from Miki catches him before he's able to raise a hand up to shield himself Oh, cool off, fire witch!~
He teased while slapping the surface of the water toward Miki If you don't, you might cause this lake to evaporate~
The joke was too easy to make to be left unsaid
19:19:37
Hah, as if. What can handle me steaming hot now?
Even while the water stayed cool, due to her warm skin the water was steaming from her it seems but not effecting anywhere else. *She squeaks at the splash before raising her hands to the side before bringing them in for a clap and splash
19:21:32
Well, I guess I could "handle" ya?~
He chuckled But, that would be for later, yeah?~
There was steam emanating off of Miki's body, but it wasn't overbearing. Just a somewhat expected sight to a fire witch in a body of water One could say that you're steamin' mad right now, Mik--ack!~
A splash of water from her quickly stopped his pun, but then he dove underneath and popped up next to her while bringing his hands up to splash her back
19:30:04
What can I saw I know how to make my puns about fire. Been doing this since I learned magic as a little girl.
She winked, watching him dive down and looking around. But by the time she found him, she was splashed again Ack! Alright alright! I surrender! You flail around like a Magikarp.
She joked, a grin on her face as her hair gently clung to her face with amber eyes staring at him with pure joy and affection. She was having a blast.
19:33:23
Under his wet bangs, he rolled his red eyes before letting out a laugh Oh! Come on! For fuckin' real?~
That was his response to the Magikarp comment Well, you didn't lose yourself, Miki, ya know~ No, that wasn't a song pun!~
He squinted as best he could to see through his wet bangs, and then he leaned in to plant a kiss on her lips
19:39:25
She would kiss back happily, chuckling at his reactions. Mmm I know I didn't. Thanks to a certain rockstar..I think I found myself quite well~
She winks, wrapping her arms around his neck Hey you flail like a Magikarp but you are a wild Gyarados in bed~
19:46:52
He couldn't help but smile and laugh at all her comments after their kiss. As her arms wrapped his neck, he hugged her close with his arms around her waist Yikes!~ Okay, I surrender to your puns, Miki~
He looked around for a bit while stifling a chuckle Hmm... anything else we can look at in this lake?~ Maybe find a sea monster?~
A brief pause That wasn't an innuendo!~
19:58:30
I doubt there is a sea monster in a LAKE of all places Aleda.
She laughs, laying her head on his shoulder and thinking Mmm, not that comes to mind. We can get out and keep moving to see what else there is in the woods?
20:00:03
Agreed, Miki~ Definitely no sea monster here. No stick looking one eyed monster in a lake~
He was trying his best not to laugh at the innuendo that may or may not have been done on purpose In any case, let's go explore the forest a bit more before it gets dark then~
While holding on to her hand, he guided her back to the edge of the water where they originally made their splashes
20:06:07
She laughs, unable to help herself as she followed him out, snapping as a nice ring of flames helped dry the two off before snapping their clothes back on You have a point, lets not waste any time!
20:07:30
The time spent in the lake was enjoyable and refreshing to both mind and body, and the heat from Miki's ring of flames was hot enough to dry them, and yet, warm enough in a gentle relaxing way as well. As their clothes snapped back on, he looked over at the forest once again Hmm... say, Miki, did you see anything of interest along the trail here that you wanted to check out again?
20:14:00
Hmm not that I saw, did you see something?
She looked to him as she raises a brow curiously. I never been to these woods so I dunno what's here that much..
She followed his gaze, wondering where he was going with this
20:15:47
He looked up as if in deep thought for a few moments Hmm... well, I thought I saw some ruins off the trail at one point. Might be a good place for another selfie or maybe an album cover! Gives that whole mysterious vibe and shit, ya know?
20:22:10
Now that is a good place for a cover.
She seemed intruiged as she looked around Why don't you lead the way to where ya saw them. Sound metal as fuck.
She jumped on his back to get a piggyback ride, wondering abour what these ruins were about.
20:23:37
Awesome! I think we still got some daylight left--oof!~
He happily let Miki cling to his back before heading back into the trail that originally led them to the lake. The ruins weren't that far, but would be easy to miss for people that weren't focused enough. There were piles of stones arranged in a way as if hinting at a settlement in the distant past. Vegetation overtook most of the evidence. The only reason he noticed it before was because of the somewhat manmade looking way some of the stones were arranged. While Miki was still on his back he looked over at some of the piles of stones Damn... this could almost be a Sabaton song~
20:30:31
No kidding. You would think so.
She chuckles, getting off his back once they arrived as she walked around the rocks These are suupseerr old. I wonder what these could be from..
She hummed, looking closer and around to see if there was anything other than rubble and stone among the vegetation.
20:33:06
As Miki hopped off and browsed around, he looked around in his own amusement. He literally poked around some of the rocks until one caused him to quickly lift his finger off--it felt as hot as a volcano. Perhaps some of the rocks were magical in nature Yeowch! Shit! Well, I ain't touching this one anymore.
It does seem like a good souvenir for the fire witch though Hey Miki! This stone here feels like touching literal fire! I would hand it to you, but uh...
He made a gesture as if silently stating that he can't grab objects that could burn him
20:40:43
She looked over, curious as she would pick the rock up and look at it closely Huh...interesting. That's pretty neat. Feels so warm. Oh this will work great on my back.
She smiles, snapping her fingers as she would have a bucket appear and putting the rock in before she snaps it back for it to vanish Such cool stuff. I wonder if there is one that does something similar for you.
20:44:23
He continued browsing around sneaking a glance toward Miki now and then as she collected the magically hot rock without any issue. He couldn't help but make a joke... You mean, we're a bunch of rockstars collecting rocks?~
He then playfully sighed in a way as if thinking... "She's definitely gonna make me pay for that one in the future..." He continued looking around until he looked under a ledge and saw a rock that looked normal, but didn't sound normal. It seemed to be giving off a soft buzz as if hinting at an electrical nature Okay, fine! I guess I can collect this one here
The irony of it all Miki~
He gestured to her once again since picking up an electrical object with his bare hands wouldn't be the best move
20:52:53
She hummed and was looking around before hearing him call for her. She thinks, before snapping and summoning what seemed like a rubber box and gloves Here put it in this. Rubber doesn't conduct electricity so this will keep you safe and store it safely.
She assured him with a chuckle Who needs the Rolling Stones when we got these stones eh?
She chuckles, enjoying the puns and fun time
20:55:48
He softly chuckles at the irony of this whole rock collecting business before using the summoned rubber gloves to pick up the stone and then placing it in the rubber box We gotta be careful with rock collecting. Otherise... we might... get no satisfaction~
He said this with a deadpan delivery before laughing his ass off Heh... these are some fuckin' awesome souvenirs~ Let's take a selfie real quick before it gets dark~ We'll stand next to a pile of rocks for the irony
21:02:35
Oh hell yeah sounds perfect! A quick selfie and then we can take some pics of us sitting on that rock over there looking out at the ruins.
She snaps, a clone appearing with a camera as she gave a thumbs up. It seemed to wait as Miki pulled her phone out as she stood with Aleda by the stones to take the selfie
21:04:06
Okay then!~
As the clone was setting up, he stood next to Miki with one arm around her back--hugging her close, but also using his hand to give her bunny ears that she... hopefully... will find funny in the actual photo
21:06:59
She would give a smile...giving her own set of bunny ears to Aleda as she kept from giggling while she took the selfie. After making sure it was perfect, she would send him a copy to his phone Now time for the album idea.
She would walk up a big stone, hands in her short pockets as the wind blew and her ponytail danced behind her while the clone shot a few pics. Once done, Miki hopped down and stretches Your go babe~
21:10:19
He didn't check his phone just yet, but would he be in for a funny surprise later once he actually did look at the photo! For now, he watched as Miki posed on a big stone. She was a pleasant sight for the eyes with her hands rested in her pockets as the wind blew her ponytail--it was nice just seeing her in a peaceful moment. She deserved that much. Soon, it was his turn. He went up to that same rock and sat on its edge--elbow resting on his knee as he propped his head up on his hand like the classic "Thinker" pose
21:14:40
Looking good babe!
She called from down below while the clone took some pics. Course taking some extra ones just for Miki's eyes later. Alright, I think that's good. It's gonna get dark soon so we should head back.
She could tell from how the sun was setting it was getting there
21:16:38
After the initial pose, he made a few playful--even suggestive ones. Knowing her, she probably took shots of those as well for her own amusement. Miki was right. It was getting dark soon so they should head back. He made his way back to her and extended his hand towards her Shall we exit the stage together, then?~
21:20:51
We shall my love~ Let's end the encore and take the night backstage~
She winks, taking his hand as she kisses his cheek while the clone vanished and the couple began to walk Man I really needed this. Only the first night and it's perfect.
21:22:32
Of course, my dear Miki~
With a slight blush after being kissed on his cheek, he kissed her back on her cheek as well. As the sun set, they retreated to their cabin. Their first day away from everything being the refreshment that they both needed...
21:25:47
(I say that is a good play to end
21:26:09
((Agreed~ Part 2 tomorrow then?))
21:26:30
(indeed my friend!
21:26:41
((Awesome~ Thanks and see ya Miki~))
21:26:55
** Miki left the game (definitively). **
21:27:12
