Session Start: Mon Sep 24 17:26:40 2001

<Gourry> *Enters the beach house.* Hi, Filia!
<Filia> Hello Gourry-san.
* Filia sweatdrops as the sound of certain...sounds reach her ears.
* Amelia moans a bit too loudly...
* Filia continues sweatdropping "Maybe...how about we urr...leave for a bit?" ~*Could they at least quiet down a bit...?*~ she thinks to herself, still sweatdropping.
<Gourry> Hey. What was that sound...? *Gourry begins to go to their room.*
* Filia's eyes bulge slightly as she grabs Gourry by the arm "Umm...Gourry-san? I wouldn't advise that..^^;"
<Gourry> Do you want to go swimming?
<Filia> Hai, that sounds good ^^; Let's go!
* Gourry and Filia go to the beach.
* Gourry lays out his towel (which he remembered this time, along with leaving a note to Lina that he was at the beach) and tosses Filia the sunscreen.
<Gourry> You'd better put some of that on or you'll get a sunburn.
<Filia> "Thank you Gourry-san..^^;"

<Gourry> You forgot your back. Here. Let me help you. *Squirts some into his hand and rubs it on the exposed put of her back.
<Filia> Thank you Gourry-san..^^;

<jen> (*gets a vision of Xel stopping Z&A while they're at it as most and readjusting their positions a little, politely asking them to look a little more horny perhaps.. or engaged, yes? -and then goes back to searching for a good camera angle like some porn photographer any day.* ^^;)
* Xelloss holds up a card/sign reading "2" as a response to Zel's latest move on the bed arena. Xelloss reassures Bo that it's OK, the boy just needs some practicing s'all.
* Xelloss takes some picture to strengthen his judgment on that, if needed later.
* Amelia is still being a bit loud, but, as there's nobody but her, Zelgadis, and Xelloss in that beach house there's no point in mentioning it.

* Zelas sits on Dynast's lap on a bench by the beach and tries to convince the serious-looking fellow that while smooching, one should looks happy, as she notices Filia and Gourry sit down on the beach.
<Gourry> You also forgot to oil your tail. *Oils her tail. (Yes. In this RP Gourry's whole point is to make others somewhat uncomfortable, accidentally.
* Dynast really *does* try to look happy, but...
* Filia sweatdrops, chuckles nervously "Thank you Gourry-san..^^;"
<Gourry> *The oil doesn't seem to be able to absorb into the scales quickly so Gourry tries to rub it in.*
* Filia feels more awkward, end of tail twitches slightly.
* Zelas sighs 'I feel SOOO unappreciated' and takes more interest in the two blondes down on the beach.
<Gourry> *Stupid oil won't go in. Then again it wasn't made for dragons.*
* Dynast sighs.
<Gourry> Could you stop squirming, Filia? If I don't rub it in, it'll get caked in sand. *Continues to rub it in.*
* Filia continues sweatdropping, blushing feeling awkward like this... "H-hai G-Gourry-san..^^()"
* Zelas thinks the little dragon looks damn amusing in her awkward situation. ^^
* Dynast watches Zelas impassively.
<Filia> Is it nearly in Gourry-san? ^^()()
<Gourry> There. Finally was able to rub it in. *Sets down her tail.* Oh look. Its that nice couple from before. *Waves* HI!
* Filia inwardly sighs with relief as she waves "Hello again miss!"
* Zelas doesn't notice as she just went back to look back at Dynast, mirroring his looks.
* Filia's head and tail both tip curiously to a side.
* Gourry runs up to them* Hi. It's me, Gourry. Do you want to sit by us?
* Dynast resists the urge to break up with laughter.
* Zelas then take a good hold of Dynast's neck hair, roughly and in one swift motion hurls him down half-laying on the bench, and gives him a *passionate* kiss.
* Zelas then lest go of Dynast, sits up, and smiles broadly at Gourry.
<Gourry> *Blinks.*
* Filia blushes, ends up staring for a moment before suddenly finding something to stare at in the sand...
* Dynast blinks at the sky.
<Zelas> Hi there, and I'd love to!
* Dynast wonders what just happened...
<Gourry> Um okay. *Recovers.* Here. Let me carry your basket.
* Zelas jumps off Dynast's lap and follows Gourry. ^__^
<Zelas> How gentlemanly! ^^
* Dynast decides to stay on the bench and just watch.
* Gourry picks up her basket and leads her back to the towels and helps her spread out hers. "So how are you doing? I didn't see you at the festival. Did you, Filia?"
<Filia> Nope...did you manage to make it miss? *reminds herself to ask the woman her name later on...*
* Zelas throws a kiss back at dynast and turns back to Gourry and Filia.
<Zelas> Why yes.. most of it! So to say. ^^
<Filia> ^^; Well, that's good...I hope you enjoyed yourself ma'am.
<Zelas> Oh yes. *gets sneaky grin for a moment*
<Zelas> But, how are you then?
<Filia> Umm...alright..^^; Planning to perhaps take another swim soon. You ma'am?
<Zelas> Ah, but I have no swimming clothes today! I think.
* Zelas is wearing a leopard-looking bra, and a sun-dress skirt, and sandal high heels -don't ask how she walks on sand in those.
<Filia> Oh..I'm sorry ma'am.. If you like, I think we may have some back at the hou-*thinks that may not be the best idea*
<Zelas> Oh well... *looks around* I DO have black panties.. but is it allowed to be topless on this beach?
* Filia sweatdrops "Well...this is a public beach ma'am..^^;"
<Zelas> Public beach?
<Gourry> Well I have a T-shirt you could use. *Hands her his light blue T shirt.*
* Zelas looks at the shirt and takes it.
<Zelas> Why, thank you sweetie! ^^
* Zelas stands up and puts her back to Gourry (and front to Dynast), casually takes off her bra... drops her skirt, and pulls on the t-shirt.
* Dynast lifts an eyebrow.
* Zelas smoothens out the rather large t-shirt, turns back around and grins.

* Amelia cuddles with Zelgadis-san, feeling a bit hungry...
<Amelia> Mmm...Zelgadis-san?
<Zelgadis> Yes Amelia?
<Amelia> I'm hungry...
* Zelgadis looks at the door warily...
<Zelgadis> Me too... but..
<Amelia> But?
<Zelgadis> Do you know where everyone else is now?
<Amelia> No idea.
<Zelgadis> Ok, then. <looks somewhat worried about leaving his room but starts searching for clothes..._>
* Amelia tosses Zelgadis-san a light blue shirt and dark blue swim trunks...

* Zelas notices Dynast gone off somewhere and tells herself she'll just have to spank him later. First, swimming. ^^
<Gourry> *Recovers from staring at Zelas. Runs into the surf.*
* Zelas skips down to the water, waving for them to follow her.. "C'mon then!"
* Filia smiles to herself as she walks down to the water.
<Gourry> Do you want to play a game or something?
<Zelas> A game? Sounds fun! What do you say, Miss Filia? ^^
<Gourry> How 'bout tag? I'll be it!
<Filia> Hai Miss...::blinks, about to ask the woman her name before nodding to Gourry:: Alright Gourry-san ^^
<Gourry> Okay. No getting out of the water. *Counts to ten.* (Note Gourry really likes being in the water.)
* Filia takes a deep breath and dives.
* Zelas agrees cheerily and swims away from Gourry..
* Gourry, not seeing Filia, chases Zelas.
* Zelas laughs and splashes a big chunk of water at him before diving and swimming out of the way.
* Zelas is btw, by now, completely soaked -as is Gourry's t-shirt.

* Zelgadis puts on the clothes and waits for Amelia to get dressed. So she can go out first (no, he's not being very chivalrous today, letting her face the danger first)
* Amelia puts her outfit from earlier in the morning back on and turns the doorknob.
* Amelia notices worriedly that she had left the door unlocked, and hopes that Zelgadis-san doesn't notice as she enters the hall.
* Zelgadis follows cautiously, an odd mix of satisfaction, and worry on his face.
<Amelia> Umm...Zelgadis-san...where do you want to go?
<Zelgadis> Well first, to the kitchen.
* Zelgadis watches for anyone guarding the kitchen and is prepared to make hasty retreat.
<Amelia> Okay...
* Zelgadis finds kitchen empty and heads for coffee maker.
<Amelia> Zelgadis-san...
<Zelgadis> Do you want some coffee Amelia?
<Amelia> I want *FOOD*!
<Zelgadis> Don't we have anything to eat here?
* Zelgadis continues making coffee, caffeine being more important than hunger, then he sips coffee and starts poking in the cupboards...

* Gourry lunges and tags Zelas. Zelas stands in the shallow surf and Gourry freezes.*
*Gourry is currently frozen and staring and isn't going to be unfrozen until someone does something.
* Filia surfaces to get some air "Gourry-san! Are you still it?"
<Gourry> O_O <-saucer eyed
* Filia seeing no reaction, paddles closer "Gourry-san?" After no reaction from this, she looks more closely and spies Gourry...LOOKING at the woman. She sweatdrops, swimming up and batting the back of his head "Gourry-san!"
* Zelas just stands and looks illegally amused at Gourry's reaction.
* Filia crosses arms "You're lucky Lina-san didn't catch you doing that."
<Gourry> OUCH!*Frantically looks around for Lina catching him.*
* Filia has no idea Zelas is it ^^; So she stays put, looking a bit confused "I thought Gourry-san was it...?"
* Zelas snickers.
* Zelas looks at Filia...
* Filia looks at Zelas...
* Zelas gives Filia one of those spookily-looking-like-someone-else-I-know looks...
* Filia sweatdrops "Miss...?"
<Gourry> Watch out Filia! She's it!
* Filia gets a bigger sweatdrop as she turns to high-tail it to the deeper water...
* Zelas rubs hands together and slowly follows... Hunting in water, hm? This game was a fun one. >)
* Filia takes another lungful of air as she dives.
* Gourry realizes he's caught in some sea-weed. He struggles getting more tangled.
* Gourry realizes it's actually a fishing net covered in seaweed.
* Zelas comes up behind Gourry.. "Need help, darlin'?" ^^
<Gourry> Yes ma'am.
* Filia sweatdrops as a jellyfish passes her by. Decides perhaps surfacing would be a good idea..^^;
* Filia surfaces, catches her breath. Meanwhile, the jellyfish seems intent on giving poor Gourry a hug..^^;
* Gourry feels the jellyfish swim up his trunks. He starts to panic, getting him to trip and Zelas tangled together.
* Zelas blinks surprised as she gets tangled in with Gourry.
* Gourry realizes the compromising position that he is in and panic more getting into more interesting positions.
* Filia looks around...sweatdrops immensely seeing Gourry and Zelas "G-Gourry-san?!" And the jellyfish still wants a hug of course..^^()

* Amelia decides to take advantage of the chance and hugs Zelgadis-san.
* Zelgadis is caught off guard. o.O
<Amelia> Well...if you don't want to find another restaurant, we could go back to that pancake and waffle place...
* Zelgadis wonders if his hormones are up to those strawberries again. especially with the recent memories to add more details to the strawberry imaginings.
<Zelgadis> ... What else do they serve there?
<Amelia> I think their menu's only breakfast dishes...
4] * Zelgadis decided that as long as the others aren't there to see them, he should be fine at the strawberry place.

* Zelas blinks again, looking clueless and not at all worried about either net or compromising positions.
* Zelas looks at Gourry, while being pressed up against his chest: "Oh dear now, problems?"
<Gourry> Ahh! Sorry,sorry,sorry! *Tries to move his hands from their *ahem* interesting position but can't due to the rope.* Hmmm. Size D. *He can't help muttering.*
* Filia almost feels like sinking back into the water...if Lina-san had been here...O.O;
* Zelas seems amused. ^__^
<Gourry> *He also can't move his other hand which also grabbing something somewhat soft and squishy. (Note: Not the jellyfish.)*
* Zelas decides she thinks Lina inverse's 'bodyguard' is a cute and funny boy. ^^
<Gourry> Ah! Sorry ma'am! *Tries to get away but his struggles are to an avail and to lead to some unfortunate reactions on his part.*
* Filia "Perhaps try to move you leg THIS way Gourry-san? Or maybe that way...?"
* Zelas is VERY amused by now.
<Gourry> Ahh! Please don't move her leg there!!
* Filia sweatdrops "Umm...alright...how about you move you arm this way Gourry-san...no...no Gourry-san!" Ducks.
* Zelas tries hard to hold back giggles...
<Gourry> I can't move my arm! Ahh! what are you doing! *Somehow the very flexible Zelas has one of her legs over his shoulder and when he spun around, panicked, it nearly knocked Filia down.*
* Filia simply has the @_@; face on at the moment "Miss, why not try to move that leg there...?"
<Gourry> AHH! Please don't wiggle like that!
* Zelas grinning wide tries to do as told meanwhile Gourry is panicked.
* Filia sweatdrop "Gourry-san...that's YOU that just brushed against my leg...right?"
<Gourry> AHHH! What's grabbing my shorts!!
<Filia> O.O; Don't tell me...
<Zelas> Isn't me... I think. ^^
<Filia> Gourry-san, ma'am...how about we get you two untangled ON land, alright? O.O;
* Gourry panics some more and gets them in more Kama Sutra-like positions.
* Zelas blinks surprised as the three of them, strange positions and all, is drawn under by tentacles... filia first hand.
<Gourry> AHHH!
* Filia eyes widen as she's dragged under..NOT AGAIN!!!

* Amelia is feeling on top of the world right now.
* Zelgadis never knew how nice it'd feel to make Amelia so happy...
* Zelgadis holds Amelia as close as he can with out slowing their progress to the restaurant.
* Amelia cuddles happily against Zelgadis-san.
* Zelgadis notices that his... activities recently have made even him unusually hungry.
* Zelgadis wonders how hungry Amelia is and resolves to keep a hidden reserve of some sort of food hidden in his room.
* Amelia blushes slightly as her stomach rumbles.
* Zelgadis smiles, is finding everything Amelia does unusually cute, even stomach rumbling (Gag! my new sapometer just went off!)
<Filia> (its even poking mine slightly...^^;)
<Amelia> (You really shouldn't have replaced it...)
<Filia> (can someone break mine? ^^;)
<Zelgadis> (Ryo's good at breaking them.)
<Amelia> (I work on it.)
<Amelia> (I feel that it's Amelia's destiny in life to do that...)

* Zelas -who isn't bothered by the loss contact with breathable air, just watches the big creature become visible through the water as they are plunged down.. The wound on the beast has a distinct 'smell' of Xelloss. Not to mention what the whole creature 'smells' of. Zelas narrows her eyes.
<Gourry> *Gurgle.*
* Zelas extends her fingers and nails...-claws- and rips the net open.
* Zelas seems far from bothered by the lack of oxygen and stays tangled in the tentacles calmly even after the net is ripped open and she's freed from Gourry.
* Gourry goes up to the surface. Breathes then notices that Filia isn't up there so he dives down to her.
* Zelas fixes the creature with a *cold* stare and says -in a high, clear, and commanding voice that isn't stopped by the water the least-: "DOWN, BEAST!"
* Filia goes wide eyed.
* Zelas glares angrily as the creature freezes. Hers or her fellow lords'.. no matter. -This rude creature will not put up a fight.
* Gourry swims down to Filia tries to free her. Give her some of his air then resurfaces.
* Zelas watches as the little Kraken lets go and seems to back away, in fear, into deeper and darker waters.
* Filia has turned a lovely shade of red by now, and is glad to be above water again... She looks down at the water again "That woman...how did she..?"
* Gourry help Filia to the shore. "Are you okay?"
* Zelas glares daggers at the pathetic creature as it slips away and decides it's no longer a 'Kraken', it's 'Lunch'.
<Filia> H-hai Gourry-san...*still staring at the water wide-eyed "That woman...she...she..."
* Zelas thinks 'Hmpf' and swims up and into shallower waters before resurfacing and start whining/cursing over the beast having ripped the nice borrowed T-Shirt a little.
* Gourry stares at Zelas and freezes.
* Filia is staring "M-miss...?" Gets up and walks a bit closer "Who...who are you?"
<Zelas> Aw, LOOK at this! *holds the part of a hem in the t-shirt that has been ripped* Mean thing!
* Zelas blinks and looks up at Filia. "Hm?"
<Filia> You...spoke under the water...you told it to leave and it did...but...who are you?
* Zelas grins. ^__^;
<Zelas> Ah! I never did introduce myself? How rude of me, oh dear..
<Gourry> *Continue to stare, frozen*
* Zelas wrings some water out of the t-shirt, and smiles at Filia. "I'm Zelas, Honey! Zelas Metallium." *BIG cheesy fanged grin*
* Zelas then walks up on the beach and shakes off some more water.
* Filia continues gaping, jaw hanging open "Z-Z-Zelas Metalluim...? You're..."

* Zelgadis arrives at the restaurant, calmed and refreshed by the walk.
* Amelia idly wonders if Zelgadis-san and she will be having more fun that night...
<Zelgadis> (the sex is a lot of what contributed to his mental/emotional confusion. His emotions thought it was such a good idea and his mind still thinks it was a rather bad idea)
<Zelgadis> (The thing that bugs him the most is the complete lack of control in his life. I think Zel likes to be the one making the decisions and instead he's being pushed into things with no way out. Well no acceptable way out)

<Gourry> *Recovers.* Well my name is Gourry. Her name is Filia.
* Zelas doesn't seem to notice Filia's alarm and just curses wet skin and sand and the irritating combination the both make.
<Gourry> Um, I'm really sorry about what happened a while ago.
* Zelas looks up and grins -that familiar grin again- at Gourry.. "Hai! Nice to meet ya." ^^
* Filia sweatdrops "Gourry-san...? You DO realize she's a dark lord, right? One of the five under Ruby Eye? CREATED Xelloss?"
<Zelas> Oh, NO problems cutie. No problems at all. ^^
<Gourry> She's Xellos's mom!
* Zelas sweatdrops slightly but chuckles.
<Gourry> I felt up Xellos's MOM!!
* Lina decides to head back to the house... maybe she and Gourry can do something *interesting* today instead of just listening to everybody else talk about sex and mushy stuff.
* Zelas can't take it and breaks out laughing.
* Filia is beating herself up mentally...she was OPEN with a mazoku! She told this woman about what was going on with Xelloss! She...drank her iced tea!
<Zelgadis> And a large pot of coffee
* Dynast snickers as he watches the Golden Dragon...
<Filia> How can you be so...? I mean...
* Lina notices people on the beach... looks like there's Gourry... with Filia again, it seems... and somebody else. Who's that?
<Lina> Hey, everybody! What's up?
* Xelloss -somewhere completely different feel an uneasy chill run up his back. ^^;;
<Gourry> AHH! I didn't do anything! Nothing happened!! I didn't meant to do it! I swear!!!!
<Lina> Huh? What are you talking about?
<Filia> Lina-san! ^^
* Lina looks at Zelas and sweatdrops, feeling rather inferior all of a sudden.
<Gourry> *Continues to babble and flinch and cower.*
* Zelas -wearing Gourry's soaked t-shirt- continues to giggle and laugh.
* Filia points to Zelas "L-lina-san, s-she's..."
<Zelas> (..practically nude.)
* Lina notes that that's _Gourry's_ shirt... why the f is Gourry suddenly spending time with every female but HER?
<Gourry> She was just trying to be nice! I couldn't get away! It didn't mean anything!! Nothing happened!!!!
* Zelas coughs and reclaims her posture somewhat, ignores Gourry, and waves at Lina.
* Filia gets back her nerves enough to say to Lina quietly "Lina-san...that woman..she's...Zelas."
* Lina grabs Gourry by the hair. "What the heck are you TALKING about? WHAT didn't happen?"
<Zelas> Hi hi! ^__^ <-that grin again
<Zelgadis> (<Zel> Oh yeah Gourry? Where have I hear THAT line before?? "We weren't doing anything!!")
* Lina isn't listening to Filia OR to Zelas much...
* Zelas sweatdrops.
<Lina> WELL?
<Gourry> Please don't hurt me!
* Filia twitches, tail as well. Sighs. If there was ONE good thing about a mazoku like Zelas..she listened.
<Filia> Lina-san!
* Zelas blinks and looks half amused and half amazed at Lina and says low to no one in particular; "My, she really is violent in person."
<Lina> Not NOW Filia! And Gourry, I'm GONNA hurt you if you don't tell me what it is you're so dead-set you didn't do!
<Filia> LINA-SAN, THAT'S ZELAS!!!! ZELAS METALLUIM!!!
* Lina blinks.
<Gourry> Please Miss Zea-liz! Tell her nothing happened!!
* Lina looks at Zelas.
* Filia blushes, calms down.
<Lina> That's nice.
* Zelas blinks as her hair almost dries by that sudden outburst.
* Lina grabs Gourry again.
<Lina> Now fess up!
* Filia facefaults.
* Zelas looks at Lina again, amazed this time.
<Gourry> Fess up to what!?!
* Filia sighs "Zelas-san...do you have any more iced tea?"
* Zelas taps Lina's shoulder while telling Filia 'Nope'.
<Lina> What?
<Zelas> The little dear just got tangled in a fish net with me, pure accident really. I mean, not even *I* planned it. ^^
<Lina> Oh.
* Lina drops Gourry.
<Lina> Well, then, why did you keep saying you didn't do it?
<Zelas> He's obviously afraid you'll blame him. ... I can see why! *big grin*
<Gourry> Well I didn't do IT. * Cowers and Flinches*
* Filia whips out a cup of tea from nowhere and sits down to sip it.

* Zelgadis opens the door to the restaurant and guides Amelia to the same secluded booth. And decides he needs more coffee
* Zelgadis still has a little lingering headache
* Amelia sits down happily, feeling like nothing can go wrong today now.
<Amelia> ...maybe an order each of all the pancakes?
<Zelgadis> Waitress. We'd two like a pancake sampler platters.
* Amelia wonders if that'll be enough...
| waitress takes order and leaves.
<Zelgadis> Amelia.. We need to talk.
<Amelia> Yes, Zelgadis-san?
* Zelgadis pauses collecting thoughts...
<Zelgadis> First.. I think we need to be honest with each other.
<Zelgadis> What. um.. <blushes trying to figure out how to ask this> I thought....
<Amelia> Zelgadis-san?
<Zelgadis> I thought a girl's first time, they were supposed to... um... <blushes and checks to see if anyone is looking/listening.
<Lina> (*bursts out laughing*)
<Lina> (GO ZEL!)
<Amelia> Supposed to what, Zelgadis-san?
* Amelia blinks, confused.
<Zelgadis> (*giggles* He's working with a biological knowledge and little experience.)
<Zelgadis> Well, you... seemed to know what you were doing last night...
<Amelia> It's not hard to know what I'm supposed to do.
* Zelgadis blushes
<Amelia> Remember, Zelgadis-san, I'm expected to be a married woman in a little less then three months...
<Zelgadis> Well, I thought there... was supposed to be.. <voice gets quieter and quieter> some sort of... <whispers barely audibly> barrier.
<Amelia> ...several of the members of the Royal Council's wives were rather...detailed in their comments about what joy it was to perform what would be my wifely duties...
* Zelgadis gapes at Amelia.
<Zelgadis> What? How much did they teach you???
* Amelia blushes deeply. They hadn't been as explicit as she knew Zelgadis-san would think they had been; a lot of their details were about how much fun it would be to be their son's wife.
<Amelia> You don't want to know, Zelgadis-san... I've been trying to forget myself.
<Zelgadis> (explaining how much Rezo had/hadn't taught him I had a picture of Rezo and Eris doing that Sex Ed stunt from Monty Python...)
<Zelgadis> (The one where the Teacher really DEMONSTRATES sex in a live show for the class. Who's seen that movie? It really scared me to think of that!)
<Zelgadis> (Now I'm seeing it with Amelia's advisors. Thanks >.<)
* Zelgadis turns a little green at the thought of what the advisors might have told Amelia..
* Amelia happily notes that Zelgadis-san is distracted from that hymen question...

* Lina sighs and gives up on Gourry for the time being.
<Lina> Yeah, whatever. Hi. I'm Lina Inverse. You've probably heard of me. ^_^ v
* Zelas smirks. "No kidding."
<Gourry> *Crawls away.*
<Lina> Gourry, where are you going?
* Filia mutters under her breath "AKA the dragon spooker..."
<Lina> What was that, Filia?
<Filia> Nothing Lina-san ^.^
<Gourry> No where! No where at all!!!
*Gourry Whips out a notebook and pencil and starts to compute the amount of food it would cost him to get back into Lina's good grace.*
<Zelas> Well, anyway! ...
* Zelas pulls off Gourry's WET shirt and wrings it.
<Gourry> Carry, the two... *Begins staring at Zelas again, frozen.*
* Lina follows Gourry's gaze to Zelas, then stands up straighter and tries to stick her chest out.
* Filia ponders to herself, says quietly to Zelas "Zelas-san...? You know...what I said about Xelloss...? You won't say anything to him, right?"
* Zelas flaps the last water out of the cloth and holds it up towards Gourry. "Here you are Darlin'! Thanks fort he loan, ne? I'll just lay it over here..."
* Zelas turns to Filia and clearly shows where from Xelloss got his extremely dark and cunning smiles.
* Filia sweatdrops.
* Lina looks at Gourry, and tries snapping her fingers in front of his face.
<Gourry> I didn't do ANYTHING!!! *Begins to cry.*
* Zelas chuckles darkly and whispers to Filia: "Tell Xelloss..? Only if it makes the *game* more interesting, Sweetie..."..
* Zelas turns around, grinning sunnily once again and picks up her stuff and puts her clothes back on.
<Zelas> Well, time to go! Bai-bai now!
* Gourry continues to cry.
* Filia sweatdrops QUITE visibly..."Alright Zelas-san...take care..." ~*Then who's her boyfriend...?*~ she wonders.
* Lina pokes Gourry. "Quit being such a baby!"
<Filia> How about we go and get some ice cream?
<Lina> Who, exactly is 'we?'
<Filia> *sweatdrop* All three of us go and I pay?
* Lina nods. "Okay."
* Filia of course, thinks to herself...*~I'm going to be broke soon...*~
<Lina> Gourry, you coming?
<Gourry> Of course Lina. *Still flinches a little.*
<Lina> Anybody know where Zel and Amelia got to? They never seem to be around lately?
* Filia starts walking off, waiting for Lina and Gourry to follow
* Filia checks the amount of money she has...hopefully it's enough...
* Zelas trots up the beach and away from them, turning many heads as she goes.

<Zelgadis> <winces> Ok <tries to stop thinking of some of the stranger advisors and what their sexual advice might have been> Well then.
<Amelia> Yes, Zelgadis-san?
<Zelgadis> What exactly are the rules your advisors have laid out regarding your marriage? Are there any specifications about the consort? (really hopes he fits those specifications!)
<Amelia> A lot of them tended to describe their sons.
<Zelgadis> That's to be expected. What were the definite rules. Was anything written?
<Amelia> I, personally, would rather marry you -- and if we don't tell them about the wedding until afterwards, there's nothing they can really do.
* Zelgadis blushes a little at mention of marriage.
<Amelia> The only demand was that he be male.
<Amelia> I don't think you have any problems *there*...
* Zelgadis blushes more
<Zelgadis> But they might try to take some action. It helps to know what they wrote and what they only suggested.
<Amelia> The written decree says that I merely must have picked a consort.
<Zelgadis> That's it? Do you have a copy anywhere?
<Amelia> I should warn you...even if you *are* human by the end of the summer...the Royal Council will try to find some reason to object to *any* fiance I bring home...
<Amelia> I think they've managed to agree that ideally, one of them will be my father-in-law.
<Amelia> But, if I bring home a *husband*...
* Amelia grins.
* Zelgadis gulps.

* Xelloss sits at the icecream bar looking disturbed (aka slightly shaken) and mutters something about that "When the lord of the North takes sun-vacation, the world is seriously screwed.." (he's seen Dynast again)
<Filia> Ah, here we are! ^^
<Lina> Hey, look who's here!
* Xelloss blinks and looks up at the approaching trio.
<Gourry> *Shutting up because he knows that the moment that he says something something bad will come out of his mouth.*
* Xelloss then takes a spoon from his icecream bowl, and realizes it's empty. "?!"
* Xelloss wonders where the hell his chocolate icecream went. Xelloss gives Bo a *very* suspicious glace..
* Filia smirks to herself "Out of ice cream Xelloss?"
<Xelloss> I've been robbed.
<Lina> Xelloss, are you feeling okay lately?
* Xelloss gives Bo a final odd look and turns to Lina.
<Xelloss> Huh? Why yes, of course! Any particular reason I shouldn't ?^^;;
*Gourry's eyes bulges. Yet another person he didn't want to see... considering the incident with Xellos's "Mom".*
* Xelloss raises an eyebrow at Gourry.
<Xelloss> You asking me what's wrong, what's wrong with him? *points at Gourry and his weird expression*
<Gourry> *Sheepishly rubbing the back of his hair.* Oh hi Xellos. Nice day isn't it?
<Lina> Geeze, what's wrong with EVERYBODY lately? Am I the only sane person left around here?
* Filia frowns slightly, looks over at Xelloss, then...sweatdrops at Gourry "It wasn't YOUR fault Gourry-san...you were tangled..."
* Xelloss then raises the other at Lina.. (as if: "Sane? -You mean to say YOU were ever sane?")
<Gourry> *Hides behind Filia.*
* Filia sweatdrops again.
<Xelloss> Tangled?
<Lina> Whatever it is, I don't wanna hear about it!
<Xelloss> Tangled? (someone's interested)
<Filia> Gourry-san and...a woman got a bit tangled in a fish net at the beach. *slight somewhat evil grin* Someone you know..^^
* Lina goes to order a BIG banana split and sit by herself to eat it. Sheesh, it's like everybody's keeping some sort of big secret from her!
<Xelloss> Ho? But I know so many women! *cheesy grin*
<Gourry> It wasn't my fault. I couldn't have gotten away. *Cower/Hide.*
<Filia> Ohh...this one you know quite well...^_^ She's ALOT like you...
* Xelloss blinks and looks at Filia, then folds one arm to himself and holds his chin with other hand, thinking.
<Xelloss> Hmm, looks like me?
* Lina is talking to the cherry on her sundae. "All anybody's talking about is mush and sex, mush and sex..."
<Filia> Her name starts with a 'Z'..^^
<Lina> Amelia and Zel aren't paying attention to anything except each other... and how come Gourry keeps spending all his time with Filia? I thought Gourry was supposed to be MY friend... and why are you LOOKING at me like that?!
* Lina directed that last bit NOT at the cherry but at somebody at a neighboring table who was staring at her.

<Zelgadis> I think after what happened last night, it would be a little harder for them to protest.
<Amelia> You'd want to tell them, Zelgadis-san?
* Zelgadis blushes
<Zelgadis> Well no... But I couldn't just leave you and deny it after what we did.
<Zelgadis> Advisors are always like that, but they can be dealt with. But what about your father?
<Amelia> Daddy likes you.
<Zelgadis> What will your father think of what we've done? If he found out...
<Amelia> He doesn't need to find out...
<Zelgadis> I just.. *sighs* things are just going out of control.
<Amelia> Oh?
* Zelgadis tries to collect thoughts and start this over...
* Zelgadis is NOT good at saying how he feels.

* Xelloss then looks at Lina giving her an odd look.
<Filia> Hai Xelloss...^_^ Do you want to know who she is?
<Xelloss> Shoot. ^^
<Filia> Hmmm...should I tell you? ^^
<Gourry> I FELT UP YOUR MOM! *Begins crying again.
* Lina had just put the cherry in her mouth... now she spits it across the room and it hits a window with a 'SPLAT!'
<Filia> *sweatdrops as Gourry kind of ruins the moment*
* Xelloss jumps slightly and sweatdrops and *stares* at Gourry.
* Xelloss looks like 'Just WHAT is with that mad man??!'
<Filia> Urrr...Zelas-san was QUITE different than I expected..^^; Or perhaps I should have expected something like that...*sweatdrop*
<Gourry> *Continues to cry and starts to chew on a hankie.*
<Lina> YOU DID WHAT?!
* Filia cringes.
* Xelloss looks from Gourry to Filia, and back a couple of times.. apparently a bit.. shocked and "er.. come again?"
<Filia> We met Zelas-san..^^;
* Lina is turning, symbolically and somewhat physically as well, green.
<Gourry> I kinda got tangled in a net with her and I accidentally felt her up.
* Xelloss gives Filia a skeptical look thinking 'She's mad'. Then he remembers that he actually SAW Zelas here... and goes as white as Dynast in the face.
* Filia blinks "Xelloss..?"
* Xelloss looks at Gourry like he's wondering how a dead man can sit and cry.
* Lina considers throwing her sundae at the back of Gourry's head, but decides that would be a waste, so she just sits and eats it, feeling general misery of almost Zelgadis-type proportions.
<Filia> Umm...anyway..^^; I'm going to go umm...back to the beach house for a bit...Xelloss? Would you like me to make you a cup of tea there? You look kind of...*sweatdrop*
* Xelloss realizes this vacation just took a turn towards the more complicated.

* Zelgadis sighs.
* Amelia looks at Zelgadis-san interestedly...
* Zelgadis starts talking again and is interrupted by the arrival of pancakes.
* Amelia sighs, and starts eating...
* Zelgadis takes a few bites and then watches Amelia eating.
* Amelia is not as bubbly cheerful as she had been earlier...
* Zelgadis notices that Amelia is not eating like a typhoon and realizes that he's botched this conversation pretty thoroughly to depress her that much.
* Zelgadis finishes chewing his bite of pancakes.
<Zelgadis> Amelia, I'm sorry.
<Zelgadis> Let me try this again.
* Amelia blinks at Zelgadis-san...
<Amelia> Okay, Zelgadis-san...
<Zelgadis> I don't want to leave you. I never did.
<Amelia> Then...
<Zelgadis> I may be pretty slow at realizing things like this...
<Zelgadis> But I think marriage.... well.. wouldn't be too bad.
<Amelia> Really, Zelgadis-san?

* Lina stirs the dregs of her sundae and scowls.
<Gourry> I'm really sorry, Lina! I really couldn't get away!
<Lina> Whatever... this sucks! I'm getting left out of everything! Things keep happening while I'm not there, and it seems everybody but me has a... never mind.
<Gourry> I'm sorry, Lina. I wanted to make you happy today. *pouts.
<Lina> Forget it... you don't understand. You never understand _anything_.
<Gourry> I'm sorry. If you want me to leave you alone...
<Gourry> *Eats his ice cream quickly then sits quietly.*
* Lina siiiiiiiiiiiighs.
<Gourry> Sorry, Lina. Did I make you sad?
<Lina> No... I just thought we were going to all come here and have some fun and adventures like we usually do! But I've hardly seen anybody else all week and it's like you're all keeping some big secret from me.
<Gourry> I haven't kept any secret from you... *pauses to try and remember if there was something he forgot to tell her*
<Lina> Well, what about the rest of them then?
<Lina> How come everybody's pairing off? I mean, when we split up for whatever reason, there's usually pairs we go in... but it's different this time.
<Gourry> Well Amelia has been either hanging around with Xellos or is always dragging off Zel. Filia is really sad but isn't angry about something Xellos did. And that's all I know.
<Lina> What have YOU been doing?
<Lina> No, wait, lemme guess... you don't remember.
<Gourry> I've just been hanging around with anyone that is there at the beach house. Usually Filia.
<Lina> Yeah, I noticed.
* Lina orders another sundae.
<Clerk> Another one? After that?
<Lina> Yeah, and give it wings!
<Lina> <Clerk> ...
<Clerk> You're not eating for two, are you?
<Gourry> Yup. Or three or four.
<Clerk> Well, congratulations. ^^
<Lina> I AM NOT!
<Gourry> But Lina. You eat everyone under the table.
<Clerk> Or notttttttttt... *sweatdrop*
<Lina> Gourry, do you even know what 'eating for two' means?
<Gourry> Hmmm... nope.
<Lina> Figures.
<Lina> *to the cherk* Can I have a marshmallow-chocolate waffle cone, too, please?
<Clerk> O.o ()
<Gourry> What does it mean?
<Lina> Er...
<Clerk> It means she's pregnant!
<Lina> SHADDUP!
<Gourry> You are!!
<Lina> No, I'm not!
<Gourry> How did that happen!!
<Lina> I am NOT pregnant!
<Gourry> Who's the father?
<Lina> There isn't one!
<Gourry> It's a bastard?!!
<Lina> No, no, NO!
<Gourry> Then he's going to marry you?
<Lina> AAAAAAAAAAAAAA!
<Gourry> It that a yes or no?
* Lina looks around for something to destroy, and settles on the stool she was sitting on.
<Clerk> Um... miss... you break it you b... b... you b...
* Lina LOOKS at the clerk.
<Clerk> Never mind.
<Gourry> You need to calm down Lina. It's bad for the baby.
<Lina> I'm not pregnant, you idiot! Get that through your head, okay? I. Am. Not. Pregnant!
<Gourry> Then you aren't having a baby? Well that's a shame.

<Zelgadis> Well, I feel responsible after what we did last night,, and this morning <blushes> but it's not just that.
<Amelia> What do you mean, Zelgadis-san?
<Zelgadis> I've been thinking about us.... <looks really uncomfortable with this conversation>
<Amelia> Yes?
* Amelia cheers up, but cautiously...
<Zelgadis> Well I told you last night...<think to self.. L-Sama help me!! I think I'm gonna have to propose!!!>
<Zelgadis> that I <glances around a bit, and seeing no one looking says quietly> love you
<Amelia> I love you too, Zelgadis-san... ^_^
<Zelgadis> Well we should probably.. just... get married then..
* Amelia blinks, not sure she heard Zelgadis-san right...
<Amelia> You mean...
<Zelgadis> And then all the problems with the advisors, and with people finding out will be solved!
<Amelia> I guess so...
<Amelia> ...umm...I think we should set a date?
<Zelgadis> And then we can... <blushes>
<Amelia> We can?

<Lina> No, I am not having a baby.
* Lina blinks
<Lina> A shame!?
<Gourry> Yeah. You probably were cute as a baby.
<Lina> Um.
* Lina isn't sure whether to turn red or spaz out.
<Lina> As a baby? You mean I'm not cute NOW?
<Gourry> *Ignores Lina's comment as he day dreams.* I would really like playing with it. All cubby and big red eyes.
<Gourry> Even if the father disappeared I bet the three of us could travel around happily having adventures.
* Lina stares
* Lina isn't sure WHAT to say.
<Lina> Uh... Gourry?
<Gourry> Yes?
<Lina> You're weirding me out.

* Zelgadis by some miracle Zel notices Amelia's slight disappointment.
* Zelgadis puts down his food.
<Zelgadis> I'm sorry I don't have a ring... Yet. But...
<Amelia> Yes?
* Zelgadis takes her hands.
<Zelgadis> Will you marry me?
* Amelia blinks, surprised, and then smiles happily.
<Amelia> Of course, Zelgadis-san!
* Zelgadis smiles. He knew the answer but it's still nice to hear.
* Zelgadis kisses her
* Amelia kisses Zelgadis-san back...
* Amelia feels that this will be the best day of her life...
* Amelia smiles embarrassedly when her stomach growls again, and quickly finishes her pancakes.

<Gourry> So. What do you want to do for the rest of the day?
<Lina> We could go fishing.
<Lina> Come on, let's go find Zel and Amelia... any idea where they went?
<Gourry> Nope.
<Lina> Oh, well, we'll find them... we'll just ask around. Zel's hard to miss. ^^
* Lina is cheerful again... seems things are getting back to normal. So if they can just make Zel and Amelia quit acting all weird...

* Zelgadis is nervous enough about what he just did that he lost some of his appetite.
* Amelia cuddles against Zelgadis-san, and blushes slightly...
* Lina notices in the window of the restaurant. "Hey! There they are!"
* Amelia smiles up at Zelgadis-san...
<Lina> Hi, guys!
<Gourry> Hi.
<Amelia> ...please don't be nervous, Zelgadis-san...
<Lina> C'mon, we're going fishing!
* Zelgadis jumps pretty high.
* Amelia jerks straight, and looks at Lina-san and Gourry-san in shock...
<Amelia> Lina-san? Gourry-san?
<Zelgadis> Ehe.. heh.. Hi.
<Lina> You two gonna sit there all day? Come on, there's a great big sea out there, full of fish just waiting to be our dinner!
<Gourry> Great day for fishing isn't it?
<Lina> You can't sit inside when the weather's this nice! C'mon, c'mon!
<Amelia> Lina-san...
<Gourry> Let's go find a boat!
<Amelia> We've got free use of a motorboat for three days...
<Lina> We do? Cool! How'd that happen?
<Amelia> Filia-san and I ended up in a wet t-shirt contest, somehow...
<Gourry> Filia won, didn't she?
* Lina 's smile evaporates and she glances down, then tries to pretend she didn't.
<Zelgadis> You were in a wet T-shirt contest
<Amelia> Yeah... ...the night you yelled at me...
<Gourry> *Thoughtfully.* She does have a nice pair and blondes are the crowds fave usually...
* Lina 's elbow gets personal with Gourry's ribs.
<Gourry> UFF!
* Zelgadis blushes remembering argument.. and the reason for it.
<Lina> Well, come on! What's everybody waiting for?
<Amelia> We can redeem the voucher whenever we want, but we've got to use all three days in a row...
<Lina> Well, it's not as if we've got anything else to do. We can fish, and I STILL hear there's pirate treasure on some of those islands!
<Lina> Hurry up, then!
<Zelgadis> I think we're finished
<Gourry> Okay. Lina can't fight bandits anyway. BTW did you guys hear? It turns out that Lina's not pregnant!
<Amelia> ...
<Zelgadis> o.O* Lina falls over.
<Lina> GOURRY!
<Amelia> Lina-san...?
<Lina> Forget it... it's a l... it's a _weird_ story, anyway.
<Zelgadis> Why would we have thought she WAS pregnant?
<Amelia> Gourry-san, you mean that you...with Lina-san...? Why did you complain about...
<Lina> We did no such thing
* Zelgadis stares..
<Gourry> Me and Lina what?
* Amelia is completely confused...
* Zelgadis is just as confused as Amelia.
<Gourry> What did I do now?
<Lina> Oh, dear lord... can we please not start this again? What gutter did all you people leave your minds in?
<Zelgadis> What do you expect us to think, when Gourry-san announces that you're not pregnant?
<Zelgadis> It'd not be news that you weren't pregnant unless you *could* have been pregnant...
<Lina> I expect you to think that Gourry-san's being an idiot, as usual! Come on... let's just go fishing, okay?
<Gourry> Well the waitress said Lina was eating for two...
<Lina> And I TOLD her I wasn't!
* Zelgadis feels a little better that he's not the only one with relational problems.
<Zelgadis> Waitress?
* Zelgadis pays the waitress... and tries not to worry too much about this horridly complex mess of relationships he and his friends are in.
<Amelia> ::whispering to Zelgadis-san:: Do you want to go along with the plan I suggested to Gourry-san for telling Lina-san that we're...
<Lina> Hurry up! I want SOMETHING to go right on this vacation!
<Zelgadis> <whispers back> you mean feeding her then announcing it?
<Amelia> ::whispering to Zelgadis-san:: Yes.
* Lina raises an eyebrow at the cuddliness.
* Zelgadis thinks how it's kind of nice that he no longer has to explain to Gourry how he and Amelia aren't really engaged... and how it's rather nice to snuggle with her too, then he sees how impatient Lina looks.
<Zelgadis> We'd better go then. <stands>
<Lina> Geeze... you'd think you two were engaged or something!
* Amelia freezes...
* Zelgadis blushes furiously.
<Zelgadis> Umm.... <sweatdrops>
<Lina> Well, don't just stand there. Time's a wasting!
<Lina> Oh, fine... you two wanna be party poopers, Gourry and I will just go fishing by ourselves!
<Gourry> Okay. Can I not be bait this time?
<Lina> We'll use flies, Gourry.
<Zelgadis> I just want to make sure there's an anchor.
<Gourry> You want to be trapped in a boat with Lina?!!!
* Zelgadis rather wants to DO something to take his mind off other matters.
<Lina> Finally! Let's go!
* Amelia tries to keep Zelgadis-san between her and Lina-san...
<Zelgadis> Is there a grocery store around here? We need to get some food if we're going to be at sea longer than 20 minutes.
* Zelgadis looks at Lina and Gourry
<Amelia> Yeah...
<Lina> Good idea!
<Zelgadis> Why don't we go to the docks and check out the boat? Then we'll have a better idea what/how much to pack.
<Lina> Finally somebody's making some sense around here! Let's go!
* Zelgadis pulls Amelia along before she can protest and drag him off to a secluded room again...
* Zelgadis not that he really minded all that, just that he wants a little time to recover and get used to the idea..
* Amelia blinks, surprised...
* Amelia doesn't mind Zelgadis-san taking the lead, though.
<Zelgadis> Which dock is this boat at?
*Amelia hands Zelgadis-san the voucher.
* Zelgadis wants to inspect that anchor before he agrees to even go for sure.
<Gourry> Do we have fishing rods?
<Lina> Um... I don't know. Do we?
<Zelgadis> I don't have any. We can ask about those at the boathouse too.
<Gourry> Okay. *They all go to the boathouse.*
* Zelgadis starts walking wanting to KEEP Lina's mind off things like wondering about himself and Amelia.
* Lina is cheerfully oblivious and happy that this vacation is finally starting to be fun!
* Zelgadis doesn't hold Amelia nearly as close as this morning, but gives her hand a squeeze.
<Lina> *to self* Geeze... do these guys ALWAYS have to look like that?
|The party arrives at the boathouse and approaches the Stereotypical Pirate-likeSea Captian Running the Boathouse.
<Lina> We've got this coupon... Amelia, give him the coupon.
* Zelgadis shows voucher to Captain.
<SPSCRtB> I see that ye are the lucky people to win the trip in the lovely ship "the Happy Barnacle."
<Lina> The Happy Barnacle? O.o
<SPS...> Arrgh. Yes the Happy Barnacle.
<Lina> Oooo-kay...
<SPS...> Arrgh. Walk this way. *Hobbles on his peg leg.
<Zelgadis> Can we see the ship? I'd like to inspect it before we take her to sea.
<SPS...> Of course. Walk this way.
* Lina looks at the others, then shrugs and follows... although 'the Happy Barnacle' doesn't sound like the most... trustworthy... name for a boat.
* Amelia follows Zelgadis-san...
<SPS...> Arrgh. Here be the Happy Barnacle. *Leads to a crappy ship* Ye landlubbers don't know but this be the finest boat in these here waters.
* Zelgadis thinks "hopetheyhaveananchorhopetheyhaveananchor..."
* Amelia doesn't believe it.
<Lina> o.O
<SPS...> She will hold for many a storm. She be nice and cozy which is perfect for two couple to get... *ahem* comfortable if ye know what I mean.
<Lina> Ex... CUSE me?
* Zelgadis looks a little uncomfortable, but not near so much as Lina does.
<SPS...> She has two rooms with *Wink* good sturdy beds.
* Amelia is starting to blush again...
* Zelgadis thinks the sturdy beds part is a good thing considering his weight and Amelia's enthusiasm....
<Lina> *mutters* It's a conspiracy, that's what it is... it's a god-damn conspiracy...
<Zelgadis> <whispers to Lina> I know just what you mean..
* Lina gets to one of the important points, "hey, where can we rent some fishing tackle?"
<Zelgadis> How much food can it store?
<Zelgadis> And most importantly. Where is the *anchor!*
<SPS...> Arrgh. Of course. Ye can rent good fishing tackle. But ye should get rid of these boys if all they do is fish.
<Amelia> Fish isn't that bad for dinner...
<Lina> I'M the one who's gonna be doing the fishing, Mr.
<Amelia> ::muttering:: You and Gourry-san...
<SPS...> Arrgh. Sorry ma'am. I see ye be a mighty woman not interesting those things. I apologize. *whispers to Gourry.* Ye got ye work cut out for you. Arrgh.
* Lina looks at the boat and thinks, maybe a bucket of corks, just in case...
* Amelia is not going to say anything about wanting to check those beds...
<Zelgadis> So where is this anchor?
<SPS...> Arrgh. Of course there be an anchor, land lubber! HoHoho! What's a ship be with one.
<Amelia> You'll have to excuse him...
<Zelgadis> Trust me, I've seen one. May I inspect the anchor?
<Amelia> ...he's been stuck on a ship without one, and, well...he was used as the anchor...
* Lina snickers
* Zelgadis glares
<SPS..> Arrgh. Of course. Ye was? Well that be ingenious improvisation there. Arrgh. The anchor be this way. Arrgh.
<Zelgadis> You will NOT use me as an anchor again! Got that?
<Amelia> Lina-san...
<Zelgadis> Ingenious? <looks hurt>
*SPS... shows the rusty, barnacled anchor.*
<Zelgadis> Is there any way.. we can get a newer anchor? I want to be sure nothing happens..
<SPS...> What be wrong with this one!! This anchor has been in service for years with nary a mishap!
<Lina> C'mon Amelia, the guys can get the tackle and stuff. Lets go get the food!
<Amelia> Okay, Lina-san...
<SPS...> *Teary eyed at the insult to his anchor.* So once a thing has gone for ye replace it! Arrgh. Beware young lady of this boy. He might try to trade ye in the end for a young girl. Arrgh.
<Amelia> Oh, no worries there, sir.
* Amelia grins.
* Zelgadis blushes.
<SPS...> Arrgh. I hope so. *Glares at Zel.*
<Zelgadis> Please forgive me. It's just a precaution!
<Amelia> He just...doesn't want me to be lonely.
<Zelgadis> It's not easy to breath under water.. I'll pay you the difference.
<SPS...> Okay. I'll get a new anchor. Arrgh. *Holds out hand for the money.*
* Zelgadis grumbles a bit but pulls out money.
<Zelgadis> How much is it?
* Zelgadis pays the SPS
<Gourry> Hey guys. You go shopping and I'll straighten up the arrangements here.
* Zelgadis wants to be sure there is enough ROOM to store food for L/G. also that the beds are as sturdy as the captain says.
* Amelia follows Zelgadis-san...
<Zelgadis> Captain. Is there extra storage area? We need at least a week's worth of food.
<SPS...> Arrgh. Ye don't believe me that she be sturdy built. Built to last. I have emergency provisions aboard. Ye should learn to trust ye fellow man. Ye'll go old too fast.
* Zelgadis looks at the cupboards and decides they can hold about half what would be needed for 3 days. Maybe a little less if they want Lina to be full and happy when she hears certain news.
<Zelgadis> Again, I apologize, but you don't understand quite how much my companions eat.
<Amelia> Lina-san eats enough to feed a small army regularly.....so does Gourry-san...
<Zelgadis> No one can believe it till they see it. I want to be sure we'll be set in case.. we have other things to do than fishing..
<Gourry> Like what? What is there except fishing?
* Zelgadis blushes.
<Amelia> Sleeping? Eating?
<Zelgadis> Never mind.
<SPS...> Arrgh. In the hold there is plenty of room. Arrgh.
* Zelgadis checks and decided there is enough room. ... Yes.. I think you could fit 2 loaded camels in there..
<Zelgadis> This looks sufficient.
* Zelgadis also checks bedroom and tries not to look too interested in the bed.
* Amelia glances at the bed, and notices that if it's shared by two people they better be friendly...
<SPS...>Of course it be sufficient.
* Zelgadis doesn't look convinced. But lets it pass
<SPS...> If there be anything else? Arrgh.
<Zelgadis> We'd better go get provisions. Gourry you can take care of the fishing gear with the Captain here.
<Amelia> So...Zelgadis-san...
<Zelgadis> Yes?
<Amelia> Got anything you want to pick up for ourselves at the grocery store?
<Amelia> I figure we can get that taken care of...and maybe help each other pack...
<Zelgadis> Well we'll need lots of coffee.
<Amelia> Coffee is good...
<Zelgadis> Did you want more strawberries?
<Amelia> Of course, Zelgadis-san!
