“This… this is awesomeeeeeeee…”

"Isn't it?" Aria slid into the water, sighing with contentment as the heat of the water quickly began to loosen her muscles. The dull ache in her shoulder subsided quickly as she leaned back with a big grin. If she had a choice she wouldn't want to get out ever.

She flipped over when Nani entered, propping herself up by placing her arms on the cool rocks lining the water and nodded along to Estelle's suggestion. "Yes, you should join us. Or feel free to go and get some cold drinks and then join us," she winked. "but the water's absolutely wonderful. It'd be waste not to come here sometime."

Conversation from the men's side drifted over and she raised a much amused eyebrow. Wasn't it usually the women who were supposed to talk about things like that? Estelle's outburst only made her smile wider. "Isn't young love adorable?" She commented idly to Nani who had returned from changing in the locker room as Estelle's face flushed. Another familiar voice had her looking round, only to realize that Trixie had somehow ended up on the men's side of the bath.

She called out over the partition- "Trixie, you're on the wrong side of the bath! We're over here," before flipping over and leaning back again with a laugh. Everyone was going to end up in the baths at this point.

Pft. I was thinking he'd have a towel around his waist, but even if he doesn't she really doesn't care. Estelle on the other hand...

It would also mean Ari's seen both your characters naked. I'm not quite sure what to think about that e ne

Aria blinked in the direction the man had fled in. He looked as if he was about to faint- poor guy.

"I think your scream just alerted the entire facility," she joked, getting up from where she had toppled. Her ears were ringing faintly and she rubbed at them absently-who knew their leader had such strong lungs? "But no matter. I couldn't care less if people started coming in, I'm not getting out from the springs until I want to leave. " Illusions were handy in that aspect, after all.

"What's all this, then?"

The illusionist looked up only to see Quentin floating there, a large menacing column of water besides him. She twitched, realizing that her towel was quite out of place from her fall. "We're fine, it was just a mistake. And you're the peeper right now, cutie." She grabbed a loofah from besides her, lobbing it at the man and smiling when it landed with a satisfying splat on his face, knocking him backwards. "Now put the water back before we get in trouble." She called over the partition before turning back to Estelle.

"So how do you say we get the scrubbing over with quickly before people start coming to investigate? I would prefer to be in the water by the time they arrive to rescue the damsels." She snickered, picking up two stools. "You want me to wash your back first?"

I'mma post now ^ O ^ Sorry for the late post, it's been so busy x - x

The Midnight Train to Nowhere

The RP is at a very critical stage, and bringing in new players jut doesn't make sense as our current players already have very strong emotional bonds that make this RP so interesting. Having a new face come in will be very difficult to incorporate since they're focusing on things more important than making bonds through heavy interaction since they've already done that through earlier chapters.

So unfortunately we aren't accepting anybody at all. Sorry again.

The Midnight Train to Nowhere

Nope, unfortunately there won't be any more trains coming as we are at the last stages of this RP. Sorry, Noodles.

Drych Lake Spa: Hot Springs

The feeling of hot steam on her face felt absolutely wonderful, and Aria let out a deep sigh of satisfaction. The locker room was very warm and just as immaculate as the rest of the spa was. She couldn't wait to see the springs themselves- her shoulder was still aching from her fight in the circus.

"Isn't this great? I'm so glad we came along on this mission." She picked up a towel, marveling at its softness before turning to Estelle. Judging by her face, it was rather obvious the girl wasn't quite sure what to do. Aria chuckled in amusement, going over to the girl and giving her a soft pat on the head. "We change out of our clothes here, then we go out and rinse before we hop into the springs." She explained, stepping into a changing room.

Short moments later she steps back out, now clad only in a towel and shoulder length hair let out of its usual bun. Her clothes and scarf were draped over one arm before she stuffed them into a locker, motioning for Estelle to do the same. "Hey, when we get in would you mind washing my back for me? I'll do the same for you~" She winked, before taking their darling leader's hand and pulling her towards the door to the springs, feeling very excited to have a nice soak after all this time.

The springs were just as beautiful as she had imagined, and she paused at the doorway to take it all in. It had the feel of an outdoor spring, with high ceiling and rocks surrounding the steaming water. There were potted plants everywhere, and quickly Aria spotted the rinsing area. It had a wall of small faucets as well as quaint wooden buckets that people could use. Bottles of shampoo and body wash lined the wall of rocks, behind which was the high partition that separated the women's bath from the men's.

"It's even better than I imagined," she breathed, stepping forward only to have the patter of paws stop her. She looked down, eyes widening at the small puppy by her feet who was looking up at them in curiosity with a bucket of soapy water in its mouth. It tilted its head, sloshing some water on the floor and she bent down, giving it a pat on the head.

"Hello there, little guy. Whatchu doing in here? Are you cleaning the bath?" She was only joking, but a sudden scream from Estelle nearly had her toppling over in surprise. She looked up in alarm, only to see a man standing there, face red and just as nervous as they were and maybe even a little scared with a mop in his hand. She wasn't quite sure what to make of it, standing up quickly and adjusting her towel.

"I- um, we weren't aware that the bath was being cleaned-?"
