Week Thirteen: Saturday, June 29th
Who: Starbuck and Lani
When: Saturday evening
Where: Aquatic House
Starbuck had been having a superbly shitty day. The semi-annual gossip rag had really done a number on his head, and he'd spent the afternoon talking to Ada about it, trying to figure out what the fuck to do with his life. Returning to his room after some puppy therapy, he'd found an email from his mother. It was pretty cryptic, especially so considering it came from Kai, who was always so honest and straightforward about everything. She and Starbuck didn't have secrets, but it seemed she wanted to surprise him, and that was different.
Then the surprise showed up, totally out of the blue! Starbuck was actually kinda shocked Kai had said anything, because it would have been even more exciting to find out that Lani was another half water nymph, if he'd not been given a little warning ahead of time. He'd have to call his mother later and laugh at her for it all. Crazy woman. Just as crazy as this situation.
Starbuck and Lani had hit it off instantly when they'd met back in Maui. She was a local too, though unlike Starbuck, she traveled a lot. Their relationship had been extremely brief, but it made a lasting imprint none the less. She was wicked cool, he'd always thought so, and maybe things would have had time to develop between the two of them if she'd not had to run off to Japan to help a friend. Starbuck was a little fuzzy on the details now, but he remembered it had something to do with a sick relative.
But, seemed she was back. Well, had been back, in Maui that is. And now she was here at Halcyon! It was going to be nice having an old friend around, especially someone who understood where Starbuck came from and all that. Plus, another water nymph! Starbuck wondered if she could communicate with sea creatures as well. He had so much he wanted to ask her!
As soon as he'd sent her a quick reply, he threw on a dark grey t-shirt with his worn out old jeans. Didn't bother with shoes, as he was just going to the common room. His bare feet moved quickly, the smile on his face really genuine for the first time today, as he ran into the common room, eager to see his old friend.
