I huff gently, taking a soft drink of the alcoholic beverage. Fruit is its main flavour that corrupts my taste buds. A mix of fruits that while they go well together as a fruity beverage, the twinge of saltiness however catches my attention.

Clicking my tongue, I pour the remainder of the drink into the sand on my left, narrowly missing the towel. "I wouldn't drink it, Yukino, Minerva." I state, glancing to my right towards both of them with the same drink in their hair, yet untouched.

A free 'compliment' passed to the three of us by an indiscrete, flirtatious waiter from the juice bar on the other side of the beach. However, a rage fuelled in Rogue's eyes easily made him click his tongue in disarray, growl inhumanly and glare at him.


Such a jealous and protective partner.


Minerva rolls her eyes her hands alighting in their spectral swirl of purples and greens as both of their glasses, along with my empty one vanishes. "Thank you, Revelli, - for the warning." A soft smile decorating her lips as Yukino nods in agreement.

The ears grown out of my head flicker as two feminine voices scream, along with the trickle of liquid onto a wooden countertop. "Direct hit." I murmur, chuckling as the ears upon my head flatten down and wrap against my forehead, tickling my skin with the golden brown fluffiness.

The grown ears something from Colletto, who was making a statement yesterday night, and didn't wish to be summoned with her pup until she was a little older. So, to aid with hearing which she was particularly excellent for, I have these two ears, until she wishes to be open for summoning again.


It's also a push forward for my magic, showing I'm able to merge very faintly with the animals I've created.


Lowering my head, my eyebrows raise as Violet continues to snuggle closer into my lap. Her body sitting upwards with sunglasses over her eyes. Ears flat against her head, as soft snores escape her small mouth. The umbrella above us causes a cascading circle of shade. Yet, despite being within it, the burning heal is still intense.

"Sting-sama should be back soon... He wants us to spar when he returned." Yukino murmurs, fingers running gently over the keys she possesses in between her fingers. "Are you fighting Rogue-sama?"

I shake my head. "I won't be fighting anyone. I'll just be training my own magic." I mumble, leaning back onto my hands which curl into towel. "It's too much of a risk. How about you?" I ask, running my fingers against Violets fur as she shivers softly in delight, curling up onto her side.

Raising my eyes, the scan the many bodies clad in skimpy attire suitable for a beach. While I opted for a more covering bralett, fake leather belt and knee length skirt. My feet left bare.

'Humphing' softly. My eyes fail to locate Rogue, a sense of longing for him. The heart within my chest thumping firmly, toes curling as I continue to look. From those without an emblem playing volleyball, to children building sand castles, kites being flown high in the air to alcohol being guzzled down in their masses from one of the three tasteful fruit bars decorating the beach.

"If you're looking for Rogue, he left with Sting to get permission for training..." Minerva crones, smiling, her voice tinged with knowing, however, the end of her sentence turns into that of embarrassment.

"Did he seriously not ask them about training here?" I growl, having remembered the point of this trip was to enhance our friendship with fellow members, train and have a good time. However, we've done nothing but laze and, bask in the sun.
