[FIELD CLASS] Adventure Skills 101 - OVER! Homework, Pg. 21!

[ramenli]

Yin shook his head. "Normally in a place like this there is a place to clean up, so as not to sully the water." He glanced at those who had already jumped in, hoping that they had not been as graced with molerat goo as he had been. "If I had to guess I would assume it would be to one side, and as there seem to be gnomes over there I think we should try one of those caverns? We shall have to go over there either way to try to get new towels."

Finally, for once, something that maybe the mantodae knew that was not strictly Clan based that Alexander did not. The molerat beside him would not stop gazing at him with adoration, and he put his hand on it so it would stop whimpering as he began to make his way to the gnomes. Whether or not Alexander followed him he was going to get cleaned up.

A gnome grudgingly gave him a new towel and gestured toward one of the caverns. There were the showers that Yin had expected, basic ones to allow for a quick rinse off and without a second thought he headed to one fully clothed, leaving the towel outside of the spray. When some of the gore had been washed from his clothing he peeled of his shirt and wrappings, leaving his pants on in lieu of any swimwear. As he emerged he wrung out the shirt and wrappings, snagged his towel, and looking for a place to leave them and where he could go soak in a nice, hot spring. He finally settled on placing them on the edge of the main cavern, and, faithful molerat following him, went to stand next to Alexander.

He surveyed the area before making his decision. "There are some ghouls already here, so as not to intrude I plan on going to that pool," he pointed to a rather smallish one off of the main pool of water that seemed to be bubbling. Alexander could go if he wanted, Yin was not passing up this opportunity. He made his way to the pool and carefully chose a place before getting his molerat to lay down in one specific place. It did not block the pool from view, but it did mean that some of the creature's bulk was right by Yin's head, and it would be much easier to ignore any ghouls that might decide to run around in manners of dress that he should not see them in. He slipped into the pool slowly, marveling in the feel, and tried to ignore the shrieking coming from one of the other pools.

Anyone that might want to join Yin?

Any ghouls less than fully clothed will probably cause some concern, he is not used to the pornography know as swimsuits QQ

 

[Ice Queen]

Roch lifted both hands to the air, like an escaped convict that was just caught by the boogies. "It--" He gagged, turning his head so he spat the water up on the side of the pool. "It's okay," he swore, even though it wasn't, because first she'd tried to tentacle him, then she'd DROWNED him and now she was sobbing on him and--

"I don't want your molerats?" he offered, confused as all get out over what in the heck she was talking about. "I got um-- pets already, and uh... they look like they'd cost a lot to feed?"

He put his hands on her shoulders and tried to pry her off of him as gently as he could.  

[Bittiface]

"TRULY!?!" Siobhan sniffled, her cheeks and nose wet from her sobbing. Or was that from the water? Oh well. "Fluffy and Puffyyyyy~" She coo'd moving away from Roch toward where her Mole Rats were waiting. By the edge of that pool, they whimpered and chittered for their master.

"Does my cuddly poopsies miss Mommy?" Siobhan smiled, scratching their noses.

Complete recovery.

She then grabbed her towel, soaked it, and began giving her mounts a sponge bath.

Yep.  

[Ice Queen]

Roch stared after her, wondering what in the hell had just happened--and then went to work untangling the hair around his ankle, because she had just forgotten about it entirely.  

[Chobi_Chocobo]

Hot spring..?

Neil had just kind of stood there for the last exercise. Molerats? No thanks. He'd stood there and looked stoic the entire exercise. But the mention of hot springs? Neil was stripped down to his boxers in no time and in the water with out another word.

((aka .. QQ ; Im sorry for missing the last exercise <3))  

[demon_pachabel]

Okay, now this? This was kind of exciting to Shehk. Even if she didn't like that she was still being adored at by the Molerats. Okay, that was a bit of a lie, as when they calmed down they seemed to be perfectly content with life. She offered one of them a scratch on the chin and it keened appreciatively, even as Shehk took a look at the towel, then at the hot springs, then to Jericho when he pipped up about dragons.

She laughed a bit.

"You're here and you live in the area. Does that count?" she teased, putting one hand on her hip as she seemed to debate actually taking a dip into the spring herself. A debate that took all of..three seconds as she moved to pull her boots off, as well as her jacket.

She'd just dip her feet in for now to warm those up.  

[Dragain]

Lizzy had somehow gotten changed - into a bathing suit - and had settled into one of the hot springs with her two most adorablest mole rats curled up on dry land right behind her, fast asleep; she liked this... The warmth was awesome, and she sighed contentedly as she closed her eyes and leaned against the wall of the hot springs with the happiest expression. The warm water, coupled with bubbles, made her feel giggly for some reason...

And maybe a bit giddy too.

Soon, she disappeared under the water.  

[NeoSeussi]

Oh.

Well, it stood to reason that the weremantis would no more about well..cleanliness then the zomboil. And of course, Alex had never been to a hotsprings before, ever. He was eyeing all of the steam rising from the pools of water with extreme nervousness. What made them so hot, anyways? Was there fire burning beneath? No, he didn't think he'd be getting into that water anytime soon.

"Oh--ok?" Alex said, following along behind Yin and his tamed molerat, even as he was being followed by his own little molerat retinue. He grabbed a clean towel from a gnome and made his way into the cavern indicated, noticing the showers as well and almost sagging with relief. He dropped his clean towel on the floor and went to stand under one of the showers, also fully clothed, which upon turning on started out blissfully cold, but started to heat up as the spray continued. This made Alex hurry to get as clean as possible in the shortest time span he could manage. The worst of the gore was gone, at least, as he made his soaked and sodden way back to wear his towel lay, and used it to dry off his face and arms, toweling his hair which was plastered to his head and hanging limply in his eyes so that it was more fluffed up and tousled.

Yin was getting away from him now, already making his way back to the main cavern. Alex started to follow, not bothering to take any of his own clothes off, as he had no inclination at all to jump into the steaming hot water. He waited until Yin was done whatever he was doing with his things, and nodded at the weremantis.

"Ok, I'll just...sit on the edge and keep you company." He replied, though upon glancing around he spotted a certain zomboil who also appeared to be..uncomfortable? Around the water. Alex waved towards Mort, unsure if the zombie would even see him, then watched Yin slip into the pool. He shuffled over to the edge, peering down at the other boil with head cocked to the side and and a smile.

"How is it?" He asked, kneeling to sit, still dripping wet, on the side of the pool.

[Zyphiris]

Edel, unlike some of the other students, wasn't so enthusiastic about the hot springs.

Because, they were hot.

She didn't like that very much.

And so she stood at the sides with her arms folded and looking very unimpressed. With that and the molerats too. Edel stared at the two of them, looking rather cross. My, was it tempting to just dump the two of them in.  

[Sosiqui]

Moira shook her head firmly in response to Jericho's question. "Nuh-uh, spookie! The only dragon in here is you! And, well, if anyone else here is a dragon!" She grinned broadly.

Blade Kuroda

 

[Blade Kuroda]

Jericho chuckled weakly to both Shehk and Moira. Yes, he was a big dragon.

"Right.. right.. of course. We were worried about something.. bigger than ourselves," he said before staring at the springs some more. Others were getting in now. In the meantime, he remained on the edge, not sure if he truly wanted to risk going into the pool of water. If something went down, he wouldn't be able to flee or fight too easily in there.  

[chiickadee]

Meanwhile Danny:



As soon as Moira unveilied the hot springs, Danny's face immediately fell. While all of her friends rejoiced and had fun in the water, Danny waited idly on the side of the pools. She couldn't really ... well go in. One week coma? No thanks. Not even if it was part of the ~adventure.~

It's okay guys. She's fine. Really.

Then she realized that Edel was the only other one outside of the pool.

THINGS ARE NOT FINE ANYMORE.  

[medigel]

"Mrrr . . . If want to," Mort answered, gravitating towards Alex and Yin (though not so as to put himself even remotely near the lip of the pool the mantodae was in). He had the luck not to have caused explosions and, beyond some bites, was fine really; he was not about to put himself under any means of cleanliness, be it showering or bathing. Plus who knew what else was there?

Still looking uncomfortable, Mort crossed his arms as the two tamed rats neared Alex and Yin, clearly interested in the water but unsure whether to enter or not.

At the least he wasn't the only one still fully clothed. Edel and Danny looked rather bothered by the situation themselves as well.

"How is can be heated?" he wondered aloud to the other two boils, making a face as he saw some bubbles jet out.

[Nio Love]

The last time Riley sat in a hot spring, she was burned to a crisp by a giant dragon. Jericho's concerns were voiced, but hers remained silent, and her adamant refusal to step one foot into those springs were the only revolt she would be making.

She tried not to make it seem like she was listening for the professor's reply, but oh, she was.  

[demon_pachabel]

Shehk looked up at Jericho, noting that tenseness to his posture before pouting and patting the place next to her on the rock. "You can sit with me if you're not getting in." she insisted. "At least dip your feet in, you can do that, right?" she urged. She felt pushy, in a way, but if he kept being seen being stressed or anxious that was going to make keeping quiet moot point.
