Rebel 34 [Action!]

[not_meatbuns]

[With all the experiments and insanity at the clinic finally dying down, and the weather finally warming up (and not pouring rain), it's time for a break. Litchi has been looking forward to this trip for months, and finally having her chance to get out of the house and have some time alone with David is a huge relief.

Even though she can see the rainclouds starting to build up on the horizon, this is still their chance to get out for a day or two. And hopefully this time will not end in fiery sneezes.

What better destination for a romantic day off than the hot springs?]




[[ooc: Feel free to run into Dave and Litchi on their way to the hot springs! Although they may lineface a bit. Thread with Dave chronologically comes last.]]

[By now they've arrived and set up everything. The walk might've taken a little longer than they thought, but now everything was set. So Thirteen's gonna go sit on a rock big enough for two and look down from the mountains to the forest and village out in the distance.]

[Action!]

[not_meatbuns]

[And Litchi just settles down beside him on the rock with a soft sigh. She'll just lean in against him comfortably here, quietly admiring the view for a moment.]

You know... I think it might just be even more beautiful now than it was in the winter.

[Action!]

All the color and life coming back to the mountains really make the view amazing. So much green...

[And there's still buds on the the trees and there are still some wild flowers growing too.]

[Action!]

[not_meatbuns]

[Litchi gives a soft "hmm" of agreement before giving his hand a small squeeze.]

I'm glad we were able to make it out here to see it.

[Action!]

[yellowthirteen.livejournal.com]

[He smiles lightly, still looking out to the village.]

So am I. And it's even better not to have to worry about anything this time.

[Action!]

[not_meatbuns]

It certainly is... [Her tone turns playful.] Although I can't say I'm complaining about having to stay so close for warmth the last time.

[Action!]

[yellowthirteen.livejournal.com]

[He hums a noise of agreement.]

It may not be as cold this time, but I wouldn't mind doing that this time.

[Action!]

[not_meatbuns]

[Litchi just laughs softly and gives him a teasing grin.] Why, David Jordan, that's rather bold of you~

[Nevermind that she's guilty of hitting on him much worse than that. On a fairly regular basis.]

[Action]

[justonename.livejournal.com]

[Just running around like the little impatient kid he is. And being generally loud making excited sounds as he runs... Those sounds are kind of the only warning you get before he crashes into one of you two.]

[Action]

[not_meatbuns]

[At least it's a padded impact?]

Ah! Careful, now! Are you okay?

[Action]

[yellowthirteen.livejournal.com]

[And Thirteen's rather surprised at the sudden entrance, but looks down to Goku, seeing if he's hurt.]

[Action]

[justonename.livejournal.com]

Ack! Sorry!!

[The kid's unhurt, perfect health and all! Give him a second of staring at Litchi, the next moment she'll be getting a hug.]

Litchi-nee!!! Did you find the Black Beast?!

[Action]

[not_meatbuns]

The Black Be-- [Oh. Right. Really, really drunk that one time.

...She almost feels bad, but he's just so adorable. Here, Goku, have a gentle pat on the head.]

I-It's alright... We... we put a stop to it. It won't bother Luceti again for a long time. [She hopes.]

[Action]

[yellowthirteen.livejournal.com]

[The Black Beast, huh? ...Must've been during the cosplay night. Still, he'll play along with it for now.]

So don't you worry about it, kid. Litchi here's a great party leader.

[Action]

[justonename.livejournal.com]

That's awesome! A friend arrived here recently so I wouldn't want him to be in danger because of the Black Beast. I'm sorry I couldn't help fighting it.

[Anyway... Looking at David... SMILE!]

Who's niisan? A friend of Litchi-nee? My name's Goku!

[Action]

[not_meatbuns]

[Litchi gives a weak, sheepish laugh. What has she done.] N-no, everything is fine now. I promise.

And... yes, this is a very, very good friend of mine. [She gives Thirteen a small smile before chuckling and turning back to Goku.] Certainly one of the best.

[She'll just leave the introduction to Thirteen himself, since she's not too sure which name he'd rather go by in this case.]

1/2

[generalflirt]

[Oh... that's Litchi-sensei and some... guy. Some older guy maybe a little older than her or maybe he just looks old for his age? Something like that. Probably a couple. What is a recovered teenage flirt to do when he spots this from a distance?]

2/2

[generalflirt]

[Sprint towards them before leaping onto a bench right next to them - balancing on it well despite a weird landing by the way, and put one a thoughtful face as he smirks]

Oh sensei, I didn't know you had a boyfriend!

1/2

[not_meatbuns]

[Yeah, that just scared the hell out of her. Don't mind Litchi jumping a few inches clear into the air over that interruption.]

[not_meatbuns]

[And now she's all flushed, both slightly irritated and embarrassed.]

K-Kida... [Clearing her throat. Trying to recover composure.] Yes, this is David. I'm sorry, it... must have slipped my mind.

[Dave. Help her here. The Fluster Level is dangerously high.]

[yellowthirteen.livejournal.com]

[Thirteen gives this kid a lookover real quick. Must be obnoxious or something if he makes Litchi this flustered. "Sensei" struck him as a strange title, considering Litchi really only taught Tao, to the best of his knowledge. Either way, he'll test the water.

He'll extend his hand to shake with Kida. If nothing else, be polite.]

That's right. Major David Jordan. And you are?

[generalflirt]

Major, mm? [He blinks here, shrugging a bit as he leaps off the bench deftly. Once he's on his feet and the ground, he takes David's hand. It's a firm grip, isn't it? Masaomi's grip is firm as well - benefits of being a street-fighting thug, one guesses - but he looks the guy over once more before looking back to Litchi.

And then back to David]

Masaomi Kida.

[not_meatbuns]

[Litchi gives a small nod. The fluster level is steadily dropping.] Yes, I seem to have something of a collection of former military starting around the house. With Miss Vermillion around from time to time, that's three, at least.

What brings you out here, Kida? [Please don't be like Bang and have been following her around.]

[yellowthirteen.livejournal.com]

[Yes, his grip is firm, and he notes this youth has a surprisingly firm grip for his age too. But he'll call no attention to that fact after giving him a handshake.]

Nice to meet you, Masaomi.

[generalflirt]

I just was in the area, and seeing you, how could I resist?

[With a grin]
