EVENT: Summer Days

[1000_npcs]

It has been a hot summer for Budehuc this year, and yet there is little to no signs about it coming to an end, even if the next season is expected to show around sometime in the near future.

The warmth of the sun seems to be inviting just about anyone to the lakeside, including the builders and locals from the neighbouring towns of Iksay and Nor. Some have come for the serenity and beautiful scenery, while others just want to have a swim or enjoy some water games. Keep your eyes out for flying beach balls and frisbees!

You didn't wait long to dive right in.

[ At Jeremy's voice he sits up a little, resting his arms on his pulled-up knees. ]

You ain't jumped in yet?

[flowingstrike_loser]

I wouldn't have sounded so envious just now, if I had.

[fierce_marauder]

What's stopping you?

[flowingstrike_loser]

What- Nothing! I just have responsibilities and it keeps me from having more free time like this!

[fierce_marauder]

Riiiight.

[ He pauses consideringly and stands. ]

Responsibilities. Like what?

[flowingstrike_loser]

Despite your jokes about it being empty, I do have to man that dojo. With your new job, I'd think you can understand at least minimally.

[fierce_marauder]

C'mon, no one's gonna' notice if you're gone for like, half an hour, right? 'sides, no one's gonna' wanna' train on a day like this.

[flowingstrike_loser]

Yeah... I guess it wouldn't kill anyone.

[fierce_marauder]

[ He can't help but chuckle at Jeremy's reluctance. ]

Tell you what. How 'bout I go stand around lollygaggin' at the dojo while you splash around for a bit? Would that make y'feel better?

[flowingstrike_loser]

...

If you don't mess around with those training dummies, I think I can agree to that..

[fierce_marauder]

[ He shrugs, stretching leisurely before nodding towards the water. ]

Better get in there, then. I don't know how much standin' around I can take after all that patrollin'.

[flowingstrike_loser]

[It's possible Jeremy ran immediately after that first sentence finished! He's already past knee deep and yells back something that might be hard to hear. Likely a thanks.]

[fierce_marauder]

[ He rolls his eyes, wandering over to the dojo as promised. This was going to be boring. But he was grinning a little, nevertheless, as he made his way over. ]
