[ That is definitely some kind of gigantic mutant fish on the beach. It is definitely dead, too, and that is definitely Aden crawling out of it's mouth. The question is, do you want to know why? ]

[no, she doesn't want to know (yes she does), but it's almost enough to make her turn right around and go back up the hill to the residential area. she doesn't do that, though, and instead folds her arms across her chest and stands there to wait for him to notice her. this'll be the first time he's seen her since the everything spell, even though she didn't really mean to avoid him for a whole month. she just lost track of time. :( but that makes things even more awkward.]

[hallowedshore]

[It'll be a minute before he's noticed her, what with being distracted by dead giant fish smell and also being soaked to the bone. At least he's not wearing one of the heavy coats he tends to store shit in when he really goes out, but he's still soaked. He does notice her after a few minutes, though, and when he looks over he's grinning and waving.]

Hey!

[crownofembers]

You are honestly the single weirdest person I know. Did you mean for that thing to eat you?

[the grinning and waving is reassuring, and makes her smile a tiny bit.]

[hallowedshore]

...no, actually! That was completely unintentional. Pretty nasty trip, too. I was in there for a few hours, at least.

[This is Aden. Nothing is ever wrong.]

[crownofembers]

...so weird. What'd you do, fall off a boat into its mouth? I can't imagine you actually swimming anywhere.

[yes it is, he just hides it well.]

[hallowedshore]

[Well duh, look at his parents.]

Took a boat out to see if I could find a place, yeah. But I saw that big fucker swimming around near the surface and...

[He shrugs, rolling one shoulder around like he injured it. Also he probably smells like fish guts.]

Wanted to see if it was natural, mutant, or some kind of new enemy.

[He jumped in.]

[crownofembers]

[she shakes her head at him, because he's so goddamn weird, jfc.]

Someday Monstro is gonna eat you like that and no one will ever see you again.

[hallowedshore]

[Would you really want him any other way? He just grins at that.]

Yeah. Only so long I can text about how much fun organ apartments are before the phone dies.

[crownofembers]

[nope, not at all. <3~]

You smell like dead fish guts, by the way. It's pretty disgusting.

[hallowedshore]

[That's because he's amazing and everyone loves him.]

Gee, thanks. Here I was thinking I could take fashion on a revolution.

[crownofembers]

Unlikely. I'm pretty sure even people without amazing senses of smell would find you disgusting right now.

[hallowedshore]

Well so long as I'm doing something right.

[He looks so damn proud of himself.]

[crownofembers]

[hnnngh she's going to have to bring it up if it's going to be talked about, isn't she.]

...I'd give you a hug right now, but not when you smell like that and have fish guts all over you.

[daddyhasagun.livejournal.com]

ADEN!!

[just the voice you want to hear after being barfed up by a whale, right?]

[hallowedshore]

[I beg your pardon. It is not a whale. It's just a really, really big fish. Maybe Monstro found some sort of mate. Either way, Aden looks up, a very 'oops' expression on his face.]

Kira!

[daddyhasagun.livejournal.com]

[Kira is staying upwind and very carefully away from all the ick]

WHAT DID YOU DO?!

[hallowedshore]

Got swallowed by a fish!

[He shakes his arms out a bit - oh look fish goo probably just got flung into the sand. And now he's headed toward her.]

[daddyhasagun.livejournal.com]

[way to freak her out]

You stay away from me until you shower! You're disgusting and smelly and slimy!

[hallowedshore]

[He stops, arms held up, then... grins big and brightly.]

What, I don't get a hug?

[daddyhasagun.livejournal.com]

You get one when you're clean, or I'll do it for you!

[she's not above abusing magic for cleanliness sake]

[hallowedshore]

[He stops where he is and would be pouting if he were someone completely different.]

That hurts. Truly.

[daddyhasagun.livejournal.com]

[sorry your stinkiness eclipses any softness Kira has for you pouting]

I'm working on my Water spells. Should I try?

[hallowedshore]

Hell no.

[He recoils enough that he's standing one one foot. Ewww how could you, Kira.]

[daddyhasagun.livejournal.com]

[because she's Kira]

Then you'll get yourself clean.

[hallowedshore]

I don't wanna.

[Now he will proceed to act like a five year old.]
