GD Lounge # Reforged

Well as much as I would like to say that it will require a swimsuit and black sun hat, it’s going to be pretty frigid.

I’m hoping to see a whale off the coast.

Mmm maybe a nice boat trip?

Whales uh? That would be cool. What else can you see at the coast?

That would require money.

It’s not really beach beach, it’s rocky volcanic cliffs. What I’m hoping for is more the sound and the taste in the wind.

True.

I see, so what will you be doing?
/Leans

Loitering. I packed a picnic.

Hehehe what kind of stuff do you have for your picnic?
Also what else can you see around there?

In any case hope it’s a fun day, I suppose that will also work for your walk?

Ham and cheese bagels, tuna salad, snowflake cookies, and Dr. pepper.

There’s a moss covered octopus tree and the lava tubes make tidal geysers.

Ohh nice nice stuff. Dr. pepper cannot be absent.

That’s pretty cool, I’ve never seen tidal geysers IRL , always wanted to see those.

So, will you spend the whole day there?

It goes well with the bagels and tuna…not sure about the cookies.

Well it’s one neat side effect of the line of volcanoes here. The other being the basalt cores of old lava vents.

I would like to, but I have to be back at 4 for another round of dinner guests.

Cookies can be good dessert.

That sounds really cool. Also /shudders
Never told you but I’m afraid of volcanoes.

Oh dinner guests? new people coming?

It’s ok Vette, I will write that one down next to your fear of dying without ten million credits…
Lol. Any specific reason?

Cookie got saved. I had my picnic on the top of a huge windy cliff. Great view, but then the rain started so.

Yea three adults and two more kids. I figure they will loiter here past the time I want to pass out.

Mmm?
For fearing volcanoes? well it’s a pretty horrible death.

Well, at least you enjoyed it for a while. Did you see anything interesting?

Mmm will you be able to go to sleep at the time you want though?

Vette was the main companion for the class I played in SWTOR. For a large part she’s the only companion you had, it helped that I liked her a lot.
She often would sort of interject “Did I ever tell you about my terrible fear of X?”
True it’s pretty terrible, but also really rare.

Well now I’m back and I still have cookies.

Social responsibilities will kind of not let me just disappear. I will probably be wrangled into board games.

Heh I see.
It is indeed rare, better to have a rare fear than a crippling common one though. My sister is afraid of heights, deep water and has claustrophobia…yeah that’s not very nice.

It’s always good to have cookies.

Ow, I’m sorry to hear that /kisses forehead
At least I hope you have fun with the games. What kind of board games do you like?

Being a cute blue Twi’lek helped her case.

Hmm well deep water and claustrophobia seem related, but heights? Sounds like a more generalized anxiety.

Sets out moon cookies

I’m not sure there are any board games that I like.
I would rather cook.

Heh you and your twi’lek weakness.

The deep water thing is more of a drowning fear than the dark unknown of the water. Weird is she doesn’t really have anxiety outside such situations.

Mmm delicious. /Munches
/Huuuuuggggggsssssssss

I see, that’s a shame.
So , the guests that are coming are also family?

Vette is mostly responsible for it.

Well maybe she should stop swimming in heavy plate armor?

My cookie making has been curtailed by a lack of interesting cookie cutters.
I mean they are probably here, but I don’t want to ship doubles back home.

They’re not family by blood, but by growing up with other family members. Friends so close they are family sort of thing.

That makes sense.

Heh that’s something to try for sure.

What are your favorite cookie cutters?

I see, well hope this doesn’t diminish much of your resting time.

meow.

hope you have fun on your picnic.

Why do life hurt so much
