[390] open beach mingle;
[Welcome newbies and today-only newbies alike, while you're getting accustomed to the sights and sounds here's a few more. Rebecca opens a channel on the communicator with a bright sunny view of herself on the beach, water in the background and bright blue eyes focused on the lens. While she talks she'll swing the view around, letting snippets of the set up of a volleyball net be seen as well as a few tables worth of baked goods (thank you Chuck) and a sexy redhead boyfriend working grill.]

Hey guys. If you're looking for something to do or want some free food, come by the beach in sector one. My name's Rebecca to make introductions short and we're having a fun get together that's open ended, mostly so I can work on my tan. [She winks. There's more to it than that but she can elaborate later to the people honestly interested. And with a hopeful bite of her lip:] If you remember me from any time before, let's catch up too? We've got some drinks and when it starts to get dark I'm going to try and dig a fire pit. No wardens are around to tell me not to light things on fire so that's exactly what I'm going to do.

[OOC: Rebecca's network replies will have their own thread down below, and you're totally invited to make whatever you'd like of the post in your own comments as well. It's something of a beach party/ mingle with food (pies and the like, courtesy of Chuck), drinks, beach sports and tanning and Becca digging a fire pit later on for people interested. The beach has barbeques (also one manned by Aidan), huts and cabanas and a few harmless fish in the water as well.]

[How do you tell your kids you met in cyber prison? That your first date was actually a dream one night stand. And that you have absolutely no intention of getting married or having kids but now it seems to be planned out for you because your flesh and blood is staring at you and wow, she can really see some Crane resemblance which is frightening and cool all the same. Weary smile, she puts up a weary smile.]

Yeah. He's um, somewhere around here too-- but um, oh. I know you're a Reilly-Crane but what's your full name? [More specifically, your first.] Or what do you like to be called?

	lmao I forgot his age lovesgirls 2016-09-01 06:02 pm UTC (link)
	Alex. My name's Alex. [ He pauses for a brief moment, chewing this over. Okay. He can deal with this. ] I'm sixteen. I, uh.. have two older sisters. Twins. Three younger ones. Also sisters. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	You're not the oldest... ? [and he has four-- no five--that means she and Aidan had six?!! So much for thinking he may have rolled out a happy accident.] ... well. That must be interesting. [small smile] Being the only boy. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	lovesgirls 2016-09-06 02:41 pm UTC (link)
	Yeah, it's great... at least you stopped givin' me their hand me downs. [ Yeeaaah that was a thing for a really long while. Maybe too long. ] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[She chews her lip because is she supposed to not smile? It's hard. She has a nerdy, sweet, teenage son. She ends up snorting hard.] I'm sorry. Really. I'm sure I am. Are you hungry? We can grab something here, or... go sit somewhere. I should - give Aidan a call and well. Fill him in on things, and then maybe we can all meet up? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	lovesgirls 2016-09-07 01:59 pm UTC (link)
	I could eat. [ By which he means he's really hungry because he hasn't really eaten anything for a while now and he wasn't sure if he needed money or whatever. He's a little stressed and exhausted and scared shitless and he's not even sure why he's asking this because it's never really been an issue before but- ] ...Do you think dad'll be mad?

About what? [She asks, reaching out to shepherd him along with an arm around the shoulders. It'd be a lie to say she's got a lot of hunger considering her sudden child crisis but he needs food and she at least has a little bit of experience taking care of other people's needs. Reminding Desmond to eat was parenting practice, who would've thought?]

I think the only thing he might get mad over is the bastards of this place bringing you in. It's not... the place for kids, even if it looks easy going. I don't think he could be mad at you for anything.

	I dunno. [ For getting thrown in prison? For not looking after his sisters or or or- he doesn't know. Dad has never been mad at him before. Disappointed, sure, but not mad. This just seems like something that would knock it over the edge. ] What is this place, anyway? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

A stupid prison. [She answers honestly, afterward wondering about parental tact.]

It's long and complicated but basically, it brings in people from a lot of different places. And time lines. Sometimes it brings them in too early or by accident and they go home pretty quick after. That's what I'm guessing is up with you, so don't sweat it. We'll um, take care of you in the meanwhile. Me and Aidan. Me and uh, your dad. [Lord.]

I'll just-- call him. Excuse me a sec.

	Okay. [ He takes a polite step to the side while she calls, showing that despite the sulky teenage exterior he was raised right. There's still some sulking and a lot of glances her way. Some staring even, from time to time, like he's trying to spot the difference. ] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	needmymp3 2016-09-10 03:34 pm UTC (link)
	[Call made, she looks back over to him during one of those glances and crookedly smiles.] C'mon, we're meeting up. Apparently you didn't come here alone. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	lovesgirls 2016-09-13 05:29 pm UTC (link)
	Yeah? Who else is here? Molly, right? Of course it's Molly. [ His favourite sister? Perhaps. He's feeling better now that they have a plan and the prospect of seeing a sister. ] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	needmymp3 2016-09-13 09:53 pm UTC (link)
	No, um... Jamie? I was going to say she has red hair but I'm assuming that wouldn't be too unique. [Molly, tho. Wow. That's-- another name that makes it all feel real.] What's Molly like? Younger or older sister? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	lovesgirls 2016-09-15 03:40 am UTC (link)
	[ Molly bakes, of course she's his fave. You're like... five, Jamie. ] Older - she's one of the twins. She's... man, she's kind of great? Tough to live up to. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	needmymp3 2016-09-15 12:39 pm UTC (link)
	Is she the one with the clothes more your style? [Small, friendly dig. She can do this. She's the mom here.] Molly. [Does she want to ask the other twin's name? Maybe she shouldn't seek too many details.] Cute name. What's she like? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	lovesgirls 2016-09-17 03:45 pm UTC (link)
	She had some good flannel shirts. [ And maybe some dresses that he had to wear when he was too little to care. ] She's real smart an' tough. I don't think she's scared of anything. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	needmymp3 2016-09-17 04:43 pm UTC (link)
	[Sounds like her type of person. Rebecca can't help feeling... proud? Happy. Content.] She a good, protective older sister? Her and... [fine let's ask] her sister, er? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	lovesgirls 2016-09-19 02:25 pm UTC (link)
	Mmn, Noelle. They're th' oldest ones. Noelle's gettin' married soon. [ Imagine that. Not just a mom but probably a grandmother within a year or so. ] They're probably gonna move out, which is great because the house has like... zero privacy. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	needmymp3 2016-09-19 06:42 pm UTC (link)
	M... Married? [Oh. Wow. Shit.] How old is she? Are, uh... they? I mean, I'm happy to hear it... (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	lovesgirls 2016-09-22 05:21 am UTC (link)
	[ Mom. Mom are you okay. ] She's eighteen... nineteen soon. She's been together with this guy forever tho, it ain't like dad had to bring out th' shotgun or nothin'. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	needmymp3 2016-09-22 01:06 pm UTC (link)
	Oh. [She's not against people doing what they want but it's weird, hearing the thing you haven't birthed yet is already an adult doing adult things. She blinks at Alex, stringing her arm around his shoulders to pull him close.] You're not getting married any time soon, are you? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	lovesgirls 2016-09-23 05:29 am UTC (link)
	[ Oh no she's doing mom things and the teenager in him wants to pull away all sulky but the boy in him is so happy to have his mom here even if she's so much younger than she's supposed to be. No babies coming out of her yet. ] No. Maybe I never will, I'm sure my sisters will take care of that enough for everyone else. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	needmymp3 2016-09-23 08:29 pm UTC (link)
	Mm, you'll find someone to love and whether or not you marry them - that's up to you. [It's still weird to her that she settled down and gave birth to a sea of children.] You'd tell your kinda-mom if you had any cute crushes, right? Right? [Teasing him is strangely fun.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	lovesgirls 2016-09-27 03:27 pm UTC (link)
	[ Oh my god mom you can't just tell a guy that. Despite his best efforts Alex blushes rather fiercely, betraying the redhead in him. ] You wouldn't even know who they are, if I had any. [ He has lots. ] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)
