[ Tyr isn't on the screen, but instead points the device toward the beach that can be seen from the house--Or what can be seen of it, anyway. It's currently covered in people, towels, and umbrellas. Some people even set up a barbecue and some faint music can be heard coming from somewhere.

Despite how happy everyone on the beach looks, Tyr sounds somewhat bitter. ] And I thought moving to the beach would make fishing on the weekends easier, too... I wonder how many of the people out there are actually sticking around.

[ ooc: 4th wall! Also open to action. ]

Aw man, don't you sound like a bitter old man.

[blackshadow]

[ YOU HAVE HIS ATTENTION NOW. And he doesn't sound so bitter anymore. ]

—Ted?

[ Of course it's Ted. So he just huffs. ]

Come on, I do not.

[ofidleness]

The one and only.

[ a dark chuckle ]

You totally do. You're all dark and broody too.

[blackshadow]

[ Teeed ]

And I know you'd pout like a big kid if someone changed your plans on you too.

[ofidleness]

Hey, I do not. [ a beat, I don't like where this is goin'! teasing me is not allowed ]

But what's up with the broodiness anyway? Don't people typically have fun at the beach?

[axeofoath]

It's terribly busy! I can't get into the market for ingredients...

[He's probably behaving as though he never left the City. That aside, though, he wonders about the way Tyr sounds.]

Are you all right, Young Master? Is anyone bothering you?

[blackshadow]

[ Good ol' Gremio... And this time, he's completely tangible! No doubt that he's not an illusion. ]

Ah, no... I just wanted to go out on the beach today...

[axeofoath]

[He's totally real today! And just as fretty as ever.]

I see, and it's so busy... I can't think of a spot that would be appropriately quiet, Young Master.

[blackshadow]

[ Tyr shakes his head. ]

Don't worry about it. We have company today anyway...

Aska wants you to make pancakes.

[axeofoath]

Lady Aska? Ah, it would be no trouble at all to make those for her! Are those acceptable for you, Young Master?

[eagleofautozam]

Maybe you should invest in a small boat. You would be able to avoid the crowds if you were on the water instead of the beach.

[blackshadow]

[ Not sure if he's back or if he never actually left... ]

That's not a bad idea... I haven't been on a boat in ages, but...

[eagleofautozam]

[It's just as well. Eagle won't have to explain what he has been up too. ^^ ]

I don't know much about boats either but something small should be nice enough. Have you ever tried deep sea fishing?

[blackshadow]

[ This is true! Don't die, Eagle! ]

No- I usually fish in shallower parts - lakes and ponds. Have you?

[eagleofautozam]

[*Sob* He has no choice in the matter. ]

No. The only time I have been near fishing was that afternoon with you.

[Speaking of the City...]

Maybe deep sea fishing would be a bad idea. Do you think they would have deep sea monsters?

[laughswithfan]

Good! then instead of fishing you can pay us all the attention! We didn't come for a visit just to watch you bait hooks!

[blackshadow]

[ Ok ok, Tyr laughs. ]

What did you come here for? Gremio's cooking today, you know.

[laughswithfan]

We came to see everyone!

[You just said the best thing ever there!]

Gremio is here too!? Then we will have dinner with you!

[blackshadow]

And all of you can have dinner with us, too. He'll be happy to see you again.

[ And he's glad she's not asking about her stuff... ]

[laughswithfan]

Good! What is he making?

[Oh no... did you loose them all Tyr?]

[forging_on]

Well, if you really don't want the company, Tyr...

[ She's only teasing, don't worry. ]

[blackshadow]

Presea!

[ Wait, don't act so excited. ] ...I didn't say that. You know I don't mind having you around.

[forging_on]

You can always go fishing next weekend. I think this one's good for catching up.

[blackshadow]

Yeah... What's going on in your world now?

[forging_on]

Well, it's only been a few months, but everything is comfortably quiet now. I've mostly been making weapons -- to fight monsters, not people. I like being able to do that again.
