Warning(s): n/a



ONE: BONFIRES & TREATS

( there's a celebratory mood in the air and while roxy doesn't quite trust that it will last — that the armistice will last — she certainly enjoys it. she also enjoys the salt in the air and the rush of the waves against the shore. there are many lines of poetry about the sea, about salt and sand and water. roxy understands the appeal.

one stand claims to sell drinks that make one capable of breathing underwater and roxy stops near it, considering. )

Has anyone tested that claim yet?

TWO: FIGHT CLUB

( roxy ends up visiting the fight club. it's not that she's incapable of not following up on whispered rumours and hints, that she can't let a mystery go, it's that she's disinclined to. so here she is — a young woman in a pretty sundress and a straw hat, not particularly tall or strong-looking — watching the fight that's on-going.

she winces, now and again — but while it is in all the right places to make someone believe that she's unused to the sight of violence, that it isn't it at all. it's that the people fighting look like bloody amateurs. )

This is undignified. ( she complains after a moment, though only quietly. )

THREE: WILDCARD

( ooc: want to catch roxy talking a stroll along the beach, having a cocktail in a beachside bar or sitting in a beach chair under an umbrella? come at me! hmu @ abiosis if you want a more personalised starter or w/e!! )

Comments

not a problem!

[ The lady's cut runs so deep...!

But he'll be chivalrous and answer her first, eyes doing a critical scan over her person. He's no fashion guru, his wardrobe largely consisting of four pairs of the same shirt and vest, but surely he can at least give his opinion. ]

It would depend on the shade of blue, I think. A navy would be more flattering than periwinkle.

[ Is she satisfied now. ]

[comportable]

( he scans her and roxy does nothing so gauche as strike a pose, but her hip tips a little to one side, her head to the other, eyes more than her mouth showing her amusement. )

You're right. I do look good in navy.

[pebblestone]

[ At least one of them is having a good time. ]

Then by all means [ he says tiredly, with one way of his hand ] help yourself. If anything does go wrong, I shall be here to keep watch.

[ And possibly call a doctor, in the event there really is an emergency. ]

[comportable]

That's very kind of you.

( and still, roxy lingers for a moment over the different options. in the end, she shrugs. ) I'd actually much rather go into the water than stay above it. I don't suppose you have anything for that, too?

( like the gentleman at the other stall. )
