I'm failing to understand the purpose of stopping in port for a "relaxing vacation". I was under the apparently false impression that this wasn't a pleasure cruise.

[Private to Ariadne]

I'm assuming you want to disembark.

Are you really complaining?

[resultofwar]

This is a waste of time.

[puzzleprince.livejournal.com]

I honestly couldn't think of a more educational port for you.

[He chuckles.]

You might even-- dare I say it-- enjoy yourself a little.

[resultofwar]

Educational in what way?

[puzzleprince.livejournal.com]

...You could learn to build a sandcastle. [And to, you know, act your age.]

[resultofwar]

I'm still not seeing how that's not a waste of time.

[puzzleprince.livejournal.com]

It improves your eye-hand coordination?

[Beat.]

Honestly, Heero, there's nothing wrong with a bit of leisure.

[resultofwar]

[Petulant silence is all you are getting, Eddie. :|]

[puzzleprince.livejournal.com]

[But Heeeero.]

I'm afraid participation is mandatory, so I suppose I'll see you on the beach. We might even be able to go for a stroll.

[resultofwar]

I'm only going if my warden gives me orders to.

A little exploring wouldn't hurt, right?

Private

[resultofwar]

[Yes it would. :|] I'll take that as a yes.

Private

[drafting-dreams.livejournal.com]

[Shhhh, she doesn't know that.] My question is do you want to go?

Private

[resultofwar]

Do you want me to? [I take orders plz give me some. :c]

Private

[drafting-dreams.livejournal.com]

[Sigh, fine. She still wants your opinion though.] Well yes. I think it could be fun. Still, what do you think?

Private

[resultofwar]

I don't know.

Private

[drafting-dreams.livejournal.com]

Let's check it out for now. If it's bad, we can always come back.

Private

[resultofwar]

Understood. Where are we meeting?

Private

[drafting-dreams.livejournal.com]

The deck. Does that work for you?

Private

[resultofwar]

Yes.

[And he will be up there waiting for you. Timeskip to port, or have them derp around there for a while?]

Private---->Spam?

[drafting-dreams.livejournal.com]

See you then.

[How about some derping then port time? Gotta get used to each other's presence before playing survivor.

Ariadne heads to the deck, wearing a t-shirt, shorts, and signature red jacket. She's on the lookout for her teenage inmate.]

Spam!

[resultofwar]

[Heero's already there, but out of sight initially, waiting for his warden to show up. He wasn't sure what to think of her - he didn't know her background or qualifications or reasons for being here - but she had information, namely, his file, and now that he was assigned to someone, he could hopefully at least use her to get access to areas that were otherwise off limits, and potentially have sway with other wardens like the people in charge of the engine room.

So, for the moment, she was an asset, and therefore he was slightly willing to cooperate with her.

He approached fairly casually, in his usual dark shorts, green tank top and work boots. He didn't say anything, just staring at her from under his scruffy bangs, his face pretty expressionless.]

Spam!

[drafting-dreams.livejournal.com]

[It doesn't take long for her to find him. Despite never seeing his face during their two conversations--one being in text and the other being in voice--she's able to recognize him based on the photo in his file.

For a moment, she stares at him back. He's a lot smaller than she originally thought. Then again, he's just a kid...well a child soldier if you want to be specific. The blank look on his face is pretty unnerving, but she tries not to be bothered by it. No matter what, Ariadne's going to make sure this port is a fun one.]

Hey, Heero. You ready?

Spam!

[resultofwar]

[He just nods mutely, still not entirely sure he wants to go through with this because it sounds like an enormous waste of time, but if his warden wants him to go, he'll go. It's basically that simple.]

Spam!

[drafting-dreams.livejournal.com]

[He's a lot less chatty in person, isn't he? He seems like an easy inmate at least. She's grateful for that.

Ariadne feels the warm summer breeze as soon as they disembark. Having lived in the Mid-west and Paris for most of her life, tropical paradises were hard to come by. Eyes full of wonder and curiosity, she looks back at Heero.]

It's something, isn't it?
