	"Well this is fun," Jadzia said to herself. She had a nice drink, some delicious food and an entertaining view. This was her first Luau, at least outside a holodeck, and she was going to enjoy herself. Then again, enjoying herself was Jadzia's motto. (Reply to this) (Thread)

Mary sat down next to her friend and roommate, a smile on her face. After a few days of trying more modern clothing for her various activities on the island, she was once again dressed in something more appropriate to the time period she hailed from. It was a white linen day dress with a straw cloche - not something she would normally wear at night, but the island was incredibly casual.

"Having fun?" she asked, sipping from her pina colada. Mary definitely had a glow to her, and not only because she had gotten some sun. She was happy.

	It really was like looking at a historical photo. But if Mary was comfortable, Jadzia wasn't going to judge. "I believe I am." Jadzia gave her a little playful toast. "And something tells me, so are you." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Mary blushed and looked down at her drink. "Yes, I am. It's been a lovely trip." Jim was off with Bones, who Mary agreed needed to take a break, so she was happy to let them be. She and Jim had spent a good bit of time together over the past few days, and she didn't want to monopolize him. Honestly though, this was the happiest she had felt in a long time.

	"Have you seen much of the islands? or have your eyes been too easily drawn to something else?" There was a knowing glint in Jadzia's eyes. "More kissing? Other sordid things I need all the details of?" (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

Mary playfully rolled her eyes, though she was still grinning. "I've seen quite a lot of it, thank you. It's a beautiful place. I've never seen anything like it before." This must truly have been what paradise looked like. She felt lucky to get to experience it, even if it was a bit hot for her tastes. Living here full time would probably not be enjoyable for her.

"Nothing sordid other than kissing yet," she said, "though we are making progress, I suppose." Mary was ready to be intimate with Jim, when the moment was right.

Every planet had something special about it. Jadzia could name a few that were as beautiful, but there was a charm to Hawaii that was hard to compare. Maybe it was the culture of the islands. "Did you know they became independent after the third world war? I think they've done quite well for themselves."

Taking a sip of her drink, Jadzia could only grin wider. "I'm very happy for you. You're practically glowing."

	"Thank you." Mary blushed, sure that she had a ridiculous grin on her face. It was kind of silly, being that happy about a man. "How about you though? What have you done while you've been here?" (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Jadzia and Mary jadzia_dax 2017-06-04 10:03 pm UTC (link)
	The grin was ridiculous, and Jadzia loved it. She'd always been the kind of person who got a little buzz when other were happy. "Mm. A little shopping. A lot of exploring. I went hiking up to the volcano yesterday, that was a lot of fun." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Jadzia and Mary ladycontrary 2017-06-04 11:11 pm UTC (link)
	"Did you?" Mary asked, her eyes widening. "What was that like? I suppose it's safe, right?" She presumed that there wouldn't be hikes up into it if it wasn't. Still, she'd rather not hedge her bets and walk into an active volcano. Wearing a bikini on the beach had been enough excitement for her. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Jadzia and Mary jadzia_dax 2017-06-04 11:21 pm UTC (link)
	"Oh it's safe, relatively. With antigrav technology and forcefields you can get really close. Sometimes I imagine what it was like a few centuries ago. People getting close with less safety measures. It would be more exciting." She winked. "You should check it out." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"Oh, I don't know," Mary said with a shrug. "I planned on enjoying the beach one last time tomorrow before we have to be back on the ship." She was going to miss the grass and the water and the sky when they went back up into space. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"Dig your toes in the sand and enjoy it while you can." Jadzia had to agree with that. Even though she loved space and space ships and stations, there was something about non-holographic sand in one's toes that just couldn't be replicated. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"Absolutely. It will be hard for me to get back on the ship after so much time being on Earth." She often found it cold and sterile. While Hawaii wasn't exactly her preferred climate, at least the atmosphere wasn't manufactured. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"I think by the time it's time to go, I'll be ready," Jadzia replied. "Sometimes the end of a vacation can't come soon enough." She put a hand to her chest in mock dismay. "My experiments!" (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Jadzia and Mary ladycontrary 2017-06-07 10:53 pm UTC (link)
	"Do you have experiments on the ship?" Mary asked. Hopefully nothing too dangerous, though she didn't think Jadzia would intentionally put all of them in harm's way. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Jadzia and Mary jadzia_dax 2017-06-08 01:57 am UTC (link)
	"Yes, I do. Nothing exciting. Some computer simulations and an ongoing test of shielding." With some of the powers people had, developing better shielding to protect everyone was important. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"Well I hope they've been running steadily without you," Mary said before taking a sip of her drink. "I'm sure you'll be happy to go back and check on them." She didn't know a lot about science, but she did know that experiments probably shouldn't be left unattended for a very long time. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"I hope so too. I'd hate to come back and have to start everything over again. Or maybe I'd get a chance to make a few changes.." Jadzia shook her head. "That might mess with the data, though." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Jadzia and Mary ladycontrary 2017-06-09 11:59 pm UTC (link)
	"Hmm. Well, hopefully you'll find them uncompromised." Mary finished her drink and then stood. "I'm going to get some food. I'll see you later, dear." She gave Jadzia a brief hug before heading off towards the buffet area. (Reply to this) (Parent)
