Beryl Harken

Luke's assumption of Beryl's situation had been spot on. She had frozen midstep as soon as she had seen the giant pool on the cruise ship. The next minute had been a series of guilty and conflicted glances between the still walking Luke and the enclosed body of water. She did not want to just leave her friend alone but...but.

SWIMMING

With one last glance at Luke's back Beryl tossed her mp3 player and scroll onto a nearby chair and took off running for the pool, a massive smile on her face. She lept as soon as she hit the edge, a graceful dive that would send her slicing into the water like a knife. Or it would have until she glimpsed something through the large lounge window

Was that a strange man talking to Bianc-

Splat

The graceful dive into something more reminiscent of a bellyflop. For a second the still fully clothed otter Faunus floated slightly under the surface of the water. Then she shifted, turning to a more normal upright position that left her eyes just above the surface of the water. And staring directly at the stranger talking to her friend.

Jiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii

So it's temporary, harmless and completely illegal while also showing a very distinct lack of trust in his teammates.

Also learn how to load your gun before the shooting starts, not during.

Beryl Harken

With a hup and a bounce Beryl tossed her bag into the back of Bianca's rich person car. Even with her constant fundraising trips with Father this had to be one of the most extravagant personal vehicles she had ever seen.

And here she was, about to ride in it.

The young otter Faunus quickly followed her friends into the car's interior. The instant she touched the luxary seats Beryl all but melted into them with a long moan.

"Ohhhhhhhh, these things are too comfy. Do you ride everywhere like this, Bianca?"

Beryl Harken

Packing was easy when you had only unpacked a week or two earlier. Beryl had possessed neither the time nor the extra funds necessary to fill her area of the dorm room with extra paraphernalia since arriving at Beacon.

As such it took her mere minutes to finishing shoving things into her travel bag. The sturdy canvas hand-me-down sagging somewhat more than it had during its last trip due to how little was in it this time around.

After that it was back out the door, Beryl having been so excited and focused on packing that she had completely missed seeing Bianca in the room.

The otter Faunus practically buzzed as she hummed and jumped down a couple flights of stairs. Taking the quickest path to exit the building, something that required her to go around, through and sometimes over confused looking students.

Finally getting out to the courtyard she made a beeline for Luke, a huge grin on her face as she waved at him.

"Rushed"

So what, half an hour?

Beryl Harken

Beryl had vanished as soon as Luke's question had passed his lips, as well as one of the tickets. There was a brief impression of movement from where she had been standing and then nothing but a slowly dissipating Faunus shaped wisp of fog in her place.

There may or may not have also been a newly opened window in the room.

The young otter Faunus could not contain her excitement as she dashed across the campus towards the dorms. She was going on a real cruise, out on the ocean! She could finally go swimming again! It had been weeks since she had been able to find both a place and the time to indulge in one of her favorite pastimes.

She burst through the door of the VGNB doorm scant minutes after Bianca and immediately dove for the dresser holding her stuff. Ripping it open and tossing items into her travel bag with feverish energy.

SWIMMING.

@NarayanK

It can be hard to get Gratia absolutely completely 100% perfectly right on considering her robotic voice and decidedly unrobotic and barbed wire laced words.

Beryl Harken

There was no way that Beryl would try and convince somebody to give her their new gift. That would just be rude and the Father had raised her better than that. But still...it was a cruise. A luxury vacation. On a ship. In the middle of the ocean.

It took several seconds before she could blink the stars from her eyes and look away. Only to glance back at the tickets for half a second before glancing away again.

And again.

And again.
