OPEN | Too Much Sunshine

WHO: Nari, Lexie, Myr, Korrin, Kylo, You!
WHAT: Catchall for my gals (hmu if you want a prompt)
WHEN: Pre-Tevinter Solace
WHERE: Kirkwall
NOTES: on a scale from Lexie to Nari, what's your work ethic?




Nari

I. Working (Gallows)

Despite the hot, sticky, relentless weather, there's still work to be done, and Nari is doing it. Sometimes in a loose light cotton tunic and sometimes stripped to a breastband and shorter leggings (she'd added the breastband after the casual habitual strip of her shirt she'd employed at home seemed to be vaguely distracting), but whether in the oppressive closeness, but shade, of the workshop or out under the blaze of the sun when it manages to peek through the haze, she's out in the Gallows at the constant repair tasks as well as light deconstruction on the finished pieces of the obstacle course to prepare for their move to the Wounded Coast.

Currently swearing and trying unsuccessfully at one of the boards securing the latter—her team had perhaps been too effective—it looks like she could use either help or a break.


II. The Beach Episode (Korrin, OTA, let's all go together)

Okay, maybe some time for leisure. As devoted as she is to working herself into a tired stupor on a daily basis, spending time with Korrin is always something that will make her take a pause. That, and it's a rare nice day. So, off they go to the beaches outside of town with some blankets to spread across the sand, some food, and the intention to heap sand on top of sand and purposefully cover themselves entirely in water that isn't falling from the sky in sheets.

It's gonna be a good day.


III. Wildcard!

She's around~



Lexie

I. It's Hot Up Here, A Lot up Here

Each day of unfavorable weather—which is to say, most of them—finds Alexandrie lounging out on the balcony of the apartments that faces the Waking Sea in dresses with fewer layers, lighter weight fabrics, and less corseting than she would wear out in society. Her hair is up more simply than usual and she looks alternately vexed and content depending on whether or not the breezes are currently blowing past her off the water.

All things considered, it is not a poor place to spend the afternoon. Do come play cards, or read, or chat about current events, or drink, or watch the late afternoon storms roll by in their brief cacophonies.

(Or be smugly used to the heat, you Tevene savages.)

[ impromptu group activities welcome :3 ]


II. Wildcard

Catch her outside painting on the two non-garbage days this month. Sit in the Memorial Garden. Something else!

"Have you considered taking a break for a cold drink?" It's absolutely hypocritical of him to ask anyone else about taking a break, he knows that, but at least he's working on his bad habits there. Slowly.

"Water, or something a little more... relaxing?" His robes are loose enough, flowy and light and pale blues, but he also enjoys the heat so he seems rather at ease. It's nice. Especially when he's spent most of the day in the dark of, well, Darktown. Sunshine and warmth is exactly what he wants.

"Or must that board meet a particular fate before you're free?"

"Mm." He holds out his waterskin, offering her a grin as well. "I can't say I've ever tired of seeing drunk people debating inanimate objects, but all I have with me is water so I suppose I'll not get that particular joy today."

Once his hands are free of the waterskin, Anders leans in to take a closer look at the problematic plank. A shrug follows. "I could use a little force magic, potentially blow it free, if you want to stand... behind me, likely. I can at least keep it from hitting me." Force isn't something he's all that precise with. It's a shame that healing has no board-removal applications.

The look that crosses his face is a mix of so many emotions, but chief among them are amusement and consideration. Can he get away with a dirty joke here? Is she the type to appreciate it? He's not sure, but it's worth a shot.

"Just don't tell my husband I'm offering blow jobs to other people, please." And with that and a wicked grin, Anders casts just enough to burst the board off, sending a few splinters flying but they're easily blocked with a barrier. "There. Magic. Practical for every day use."

"He's not complaining," Anders says with a grin before coming back over to sit next to her. "And you're welcome. Maybe one day things like that will be a common sight."

There's a short pause as he gets comfy, before he shrugs. "Perhaps not the splintering. But magic used here and there, in practical ways, since it truly can make life easier. If I could see that come to pass in my life... Well. There are actually a lot of things I'd like to see come to pass in my lifetime. My wishes aren't all that simple."

His smile changes to something a little wistful. Doubtlessly she wants to see some serious changes too. Her people don't have it easy, not by a long shot.

"Change is difficult, especially when there are people who benefit from it not happening."
