's a pretty name for a man eating creature, Lucretia. [ this is very sweet, actually. if you stand here long enough, you could forget about the murder hotel and the murder station, maybe. aquila doesn't seem to mind the touches either way, content just to look out on the ocean and the shark with molly and harrow like this. it's peaceful. ] Kind of a mouthful.
[ but, ah.
the first time... it's nice to see harrow smiling like that, especially after this weekend, so. ] First time, huh? You been to other oceans, since? More sharks or less?
[ aw. he lets molly sort of lead them off and then loosens their grip so he can go take off his slut boots. ]
Sounds like the both of you could stand to be a little more well traveled. [ there's some kind of just slightly inside joke there, wryness in their tone. they pat harrow on the shoulder. ] You should join him.
Nicodranas... name sounds familiar, kinda. Can't put my finger on why. Maybe I should be a little more well traveled.
[ help why is that so funny - the mental image of a full body swimsuit gets them to laugh, startled out of them. ] You would know about something like that, Harrow.
[ help.
they drop down into the sand, finally, on harrow's other side. she's sandwiched. ] And my uniform's cute as hell, and also a requirement.
[ ...
they fiddle with a couple of the buttons, though. just at the chest and the neck - enough to open up the collar. they're pale under there! but it at least gets a breeze going. ] Still technically on duty, even if it feels like a vacation.
Have some faith! I can do some cool things. Depends on what you want. Holds a lot of liquor.
[ terrible. ] And the hotel glasses are... [ they. look like they might say cool, but then they reach out and poke one of the dangly star charms. ] .... Charming.
[ snorting when his glasses are poked, pushing them up to look over judgmentally. anyway the next time harrow sneaks over to cuddle he will put an arm around her to keep her there. trapped like a RAT. ]
You're going to have to do better than charming. And you [harrow] should also have to be nicer to me for at least a week.
[ they are not swayed by this judgy look. they also lean against harrow's other side, so she is absolutely trapped like a rat. their arm comes behind her though, resting in the sand closer to molly.
thoughtfully: ] Eye-catching? Glittery? Complimentary to your shades of purple? [ a beat. ] Uh, fucking cute?
[ (molly voice) nice cover
anyway. to harrow, with a hum - ] You could write another card. [ lol ]
[ well they will just absolutely let them have this conversation!
with all the innocent air of someone who is not a co-conspirator, here, they're just looking at the ocean, but they hum a little bit, lightly, in agreement. whether aquila is agreeing to molly or harrow, who knows.
they do move a bit to hold molly's hand when it comes, though! and stay comfortably here. weird how having this conversation with aquila around probably doesn't feel weird. it's fine. ]

[she forgets to protest the hand on her shoulder because it's touch week.]
I really did like this place. It is the first time I had seen the ocean.

[ but he's not as adorable about it. going to go sit himself down in the sand, working on getting his boots off. beach time. ]
I don't think she actually ate any men. Just bullets?

[ Molly is laying back one arm behind his head and digging his feet into the sand, tail swaying around happily - holding one hand out? ]
Someone hand me some sunglasses.
no subject
but she will sit down on the sand by molly and take off her own boots.]

Here. [ but there you go. they're kind of ridiculous but they do function... and they say HOTEL not hollywood. alas. they are, however rad as hell.
beyond that, they snort a little, though, and stay standing for now, hands folded behind their back, looking out at the ocean. ]
You do like to ramble. [ (affectionate) ] It sounds fun, though.
no subject
You gonna just stand there like a real weirdo and sweat to death in that dumb little uniform?

So, what the limit on this little summoning trick you can do?
no subject
Considering the glasses say 'hotel' on them, I don't know if they even reach the costume closet.
no subject
they snort, though. ]

I am sorry that this had to happen and that it affected you. You are not the most impacted person, but you have the right to mind it.

...aquila. sweats a little internally and looks away, ]
Mhm. [ that seemed fair to them, ] And I'm sure she's gonna try and make it up to you by being nice.
no subject
And no she's not. She called me a moron about five minutes ago.

It is far kinder to be honest with people about their shortcomings.
