“I try my best to offer good advice or different ways of looking at things, I’m glad I can do so outside of the confines of my therapy office.” Ava looked down at the books in her hands then back up to Dory, a small smile spread over her lips and she nodded her head, “Sure, if it’s not too much trouble.” She said eyes darting back down to her books, there was a nice variety there things that normally – she most likely wouldn’t have picked up, but since Kai asked her to come in, and finding Dory took a while she ended up with some interesting topics.
Her eyebrows shot up and her head cocked to the side as Dory started to describe the documentary she had woken up and watched a bit of. She understood generally what Dory was speaking on but her interest had been piqued, she wanted to see this documentary, the studies surrounding it. “Sounds fascinating, I could help explain it if you want to understand more.” she smiled. “Years of therapy and psychology studies has me pretty fluent in that sort of talk.” She chuckled, “I have read it,” She added a second later, “So you had a different experience after realizing….” She trailed off letting the other fill in the gap, get her talking and comfortable.
“I’ve read a decent amount of the ‘popular’ YA books. Harry Potter, PJO, Divergent… though I’m up for any sort of recommendation. I mostly just enjoy good plot and character development. I just like it through the lens of fantasy or Sci-fi since our own world is a bit much at times.” She said with a grin, “Sometimes, you just need an escape from the darkness that is the real world and need to see some other – not our world situations.”
“It must be hard being a therapist sometimes. I’m watching Lucifer, and the therapist there is taken advantage of by her friends, and I imagine that can be a thing sometimes. But you also must be pretty smart.” She complimented with a grin. “Oh, it’s no trouble at all! It’s my job, and I’m happy to do it.” She took half the books the woman was carrying, and lead her to the check out counter, slipping behind it. She grabbed a sticky note and a pen, and after stacking the rest of the woman’s books so far neatly – largest on the bottom – she went to write on the paper, then paused. “I’m so sorry, that was rude of me. I didn’t even ask your name to write down!” She blushed a little, but once she got a name, she wrote it down, then her own name in brackets underneath, in case someone needed to move the stack, or she was needed regarding anything of it.
“Oh.. you’re very sweet, but that’s okay. I’m not really smart enough to remember anything you tell me, or.. I guess more that I won’t really get it.” Dorothy had worked harder than anyone in school, only to get grades that barely scraped her a passing mark sometimes. She remembered crying in frustration multiple times a week, and faked being sick more than most people would. Sometimes she would tell Kai some of her bees were sick so she couldn’t go to school, because they could sting someone. Anything to keep her out of classes when she was younger. She got more creative in high school, of course, but she also started trying harder.
“Well, after realizing.. it just made me see that people treat different people.. differently. Like they’re some srt of inconvenience just because they’re different, which isn’t fair at all, and it’s like the more different they are, the more they’re told they’re wrong for existing. And everyone trying to just get by in the world without being discovered, and they have to pretend what they’re not, even though it’s not natural to them, so they just hide and become factionless, because that’s better than trying to be something they’re not, just because something is wrong with them, even though it’s not really wrong, they’re just different, and shouldn’t be an inconvenience for people, because it’s not like they choose to be-” Dory cut herself off, blushing. “Sorry, Ma’am.” It was clear she had read the book feeling a personal connection to the divergent; her social anxiety.
“My security blanket book is Fahrenheit Four Fifty-One. By Ray Bradbury? He’s one of my favourites. I don’t think the Harry Potter books are well written at all. Oh! Maybe you’d like The Wasp Factory? It was.. not what I expected when I heard the title. But it’s... in the mind of a child psychopath. And that’s psychology. It has some really good reviews. And.. well, I really love Ella Minnow Pea. Animal Farm is also worth mentioning. I think there’s s psychology point of view in there somewhere. I also really loved The Cay. It was beautiful.”

Kelly couldn’t say that she’d ever gotten the response Dory just gave her when she had flirted with someone before. Picking up women and men wasn’t something new for the wedding planner. As someone who loved being the center of a party and having a good time, she often found herself walking back to someone’s place at the end of the night. Still, the wholesome way the woman before her was acting was new – refreshing. The loud exclamation of her looks made Kelly arch an eyebrow as a smirk formed on her face, and when the words were spoken again more softly, she chuckled lightly. “Thank you is one way you can go, but you can also physically show you’re not turned off by moving closer to the person flirting with you. Smiling and blushing works too,” she said after taking a minute to think about how to answer the question. “Thanks though, pretty girl,” she said with a wink. “I liked your enthusiasm.”
A bee dying after stinging a human was something she’d heard before, so it made sense that they didn’t actually seek out harm. Although, watching someone be so careful with bees crawling all over them was different, but not nearly as weird as Kelly would have thought it would be if she’d thought about it before. “Twenty three,” she repeated. “I’m twenty five. I hope me showing up here today is a good birthday surprise for you. I think I’m getting more from it from getting to enjoy your sweet company, but hopefully I will do more than fluster you too much.” Apple pie tea wasn’t a flavor she’d ever heard of before, but it did sound wonderful. If cinnamon was involved, she’d be happy immediately. “That sounds perfect. I was about to ask if you have honey, but I think it’s safe to say you do.”
As Dory spoke again in reaction to Kelly’s advances, the wedding planner bit her lip. “What you’re doing works,” she promised. “It’s cute and actually attractive. Your honesty and rambling makes me want to kiss you to stop you from being so nervous, so I’d say you’re doing a good job.” It was also very hard for Kelly to keep her eyes on the woman’s face instead of her legs since the skirt she was wearing was sinfully short. For someone who seemed so innocent, that outfit definitely didn’t lead to wholesome thoughts. “I think it looks good on you, so mission accomplished. You’re a bit of a tease without even realizing it, you know that?”
-
“Oh..” Dorothy trailed off, worrying her lower lip. “Okay.” The gears were turning in her head as she was thinking – over thinking – about everything, and what decision she wanted to make and would make. There was silence filling the air between the two woman as Dory tried to figure something out. When she finally figured something out, she took a few nervous steps closer to the other woman, leaving only a couple feet between them. However, eye contact wasn’t exactly possible for the bee keeper at the moment, despite efforts to try.
“I- it’s not a bad surprise? I mean, it’s not not a good surprise, I just- you’re making me nervous. And not in the usual nervous way I feel around people, and I’m not sure I know what to do with this nervous, because I don’t think it feels like a bad nervous.” Dory grinned and nodded proudly. “I have a great deal of honey! I always get so much during harvest every year, because my bees really are just the best.” The young woman beamed with pride, and even stood up a little straighter with that statement.
But the newfound steady footing quickly gave way as the other continued to speak. “Y-you’d- to stop me from- like.. but- the teasing thing, I don’t.. okay, maybe a little I wanted you to like me in the outfit, but I’m not doing it on purpose purpose, I don’t think, but I don’t think I’m sorry, either.. is that okay?” She asked rather quickly, nervously, not so subtly slowly licking her lips as she pulled her lower one between her teeth with the retreating of her tongue; all as her gaze found and lingered a few extra moments on Kelly’s own lips.
“N-not that I- I mean, it sounds like something right out of a movie, and not something like actually happens in real life, because who has their first kiss on their birthday by a beautiful woman who kisses her just to stop from rambling, I mean that’s completely some sort of Hallmark thing right there, and I don’t even know if I’d be less nervous or even more nervous, because it’s not like I even know how to--”

Jolene sucked her lips in and huffed out a breath, brow furrowed as she slowly nodded her head. After a beat she relaxed a bit while Cordelia explained the situation, She guessed if she could talk to the creatures it wasn’t as bad but still! She was obviously hurt! This couldn’t be a good thing. “But you’re bleeding…” She said her brow furrowing once again “And brushing against barbed wire doesn’t usually result in pieces of it being left in you. Just scratches that bleed… but you have teeth. Teeth! In your skin!” she held a hand up to her lips trying not to panic at the idea that this woman was more hurt than she let on. “Too depressing?” she asked at the mention of hating them. She wasn’t sure what else to say in that moment as she glanced to where Cordi pointed. “Glue. Right.” she said with a curt nod. “Can I help you in some way?” she asked.
But her voice hitched before she could say more, her blood skyrocketing through her body as she felt the woman’s hand on the back of her neck and felt their lips come together. When they pulled apart a moment later she blinked surprised. Jolene opened and closed her mouth multiple times before she just cleared her throat and smiled. “You don’t— have to impress me. Or like – not more than this. I – you have shark teeth in you and that’s–” she shook her head again. “I will totally help you get them out. No judgments if you cry.” She said smiling. “So sit down and let me try to get these out without hurting you more.”
.
“Barbed wire wasn’t designed by nature to fall out.” She chuckled a little. “Huh. Would you look at that! I do, don’t I?” She teased the other with a small wink and another chuckle. “Too depressing. Imagine being able to understand the marine animals kept in captivity?”
Kira raised an eyebrow as the other seemed speechless, and couldn’t help but smirk at her. “Crab got your tongue, Ariel?” She asked, running a thumb over the woman’s lower lip. “I thought I was supposed to be the mermaid and all. Seeing as how I’m the one that can breathe underwater.” Teasing Jolene was fun, and she loved being able to do so again; and she also loved how speechless the other seemed after their kiss. If she didn’t have any self will, she would have leaned in and kissed her again right then and there.
“I’m sure if you agreed to cook me dinner one night, I’d be in a lot less pain right now.” She mentioned with a smirk, remembering the others’ love of cooking. Seeing as how she couldn’t cook, herself, she figured it would be a lot of fun. Plus, she really wanted to catch up with the other. Hell, she wanted to take a few pictures to post up, too! And tag Raye to playfully ask if she was jealous. Kira personally loved how many ship supporters she got for her and Raye, because it amused her, and gave so many opportunities for fun! It only encouraged the antics of the apple giving and what not.
“Honestly, just pull them out? They’re not that big, and it’ll be fine. And I hear chicks dig scars if any happen to do that?” She asked, giving Jolene a flirty look that contained a playfully cocky aura to it. “Would you kiss me for being sweet, or to shut me up, if I told you that you were basically my Cinderella? Not the whole tragic backstory kind of thing, but the getting away at midnight kind of thing. Not even a shoe, either. So disrespectful to the misogynistic classics.” She joked, tucking the woman’s hair behind her ear. “Even more beautiful than I remember, though.”

Ava smiled, slipping the book on top of the other two she had. “I mean, it seems every time I turn a stack I find another book I want.” She shrugged one shoulder and chuckled. “I’m always looking for more books on psychology and well – just good things to read.” That wasn’t helpful she knew, but she had finally found Dory! Ava was excited. She wanted to help the other as much as she could, even if she wasn’t sure where to start since this was not how she normally met people she was supposed to help. “Fantasy sorts of things, things to – yanno escape this world at times.”
She brushed a strand of hair behind her ear and adjusted the books in her arms as she spoke. “Or do you have any recommendations? I’m literally up for reading anything so long as its well written.” She hesitated for a moment and cocked her head to one side, “Also, don’t sell yourself short, I’m sure Kai is great at recommendations but – you are too. I had a library friend ages ago that told me two librarians could be given the same prompt to find books and come back with totally different and wonderful things. So, there is no better. Just different.”
.
“That’s a very beautiful way of putting things, Ma’am. Different; not better.” She smiled warmly at the woman, before holding her hands out. “Would you like me to take a couple of those off your hands? If you’d like, I could tape a paper with your name on the pile behind the counter, to allow you to continue browsing without worrying about if you have enough hands or not.” She offered sweetly.
“I have one recommendation, maybe. A couple. But one may seem a little odd.. and even if you’ve read it, if you’re interested in psychology, you may find rereading the series with? I was watching an animal documentary, and fell asleep.. but when I woke up, it was something different. I didn’t really watch the whole thing, and.. I didn’t really understand some of what was being said..” Dory was a little self conscious over the fact that she wasn’t very book smart.
“It was about brains? I think specifically ADHD and autistic brains.. and I’m not sure what synaptic pruning is. But I guess studies showed that those brains aren’t really as subject to it? As a neurotical brain.” She didn’t know what that part meant, either. “Kind of like, it said, how gifted brains aren’t as subject to it. And there was- I can’t really remember much of how they figured the study out, but it talked about giving a neurotypical person a task, and a neurodivergent person a task, and the brain of the divergent lights up in more areas than the typical brain. And there was something about a thinking brain and sensory brain with the divergent brain thinking. Which is why they can come at problems differently from different angles?” She took a nervous breath, realizing she was rambling about something she probably had no right talking about.
“And Divergent is a wonderful dystopian read! But I had a very different experience reading it after I realized.. well, if you haven’t read it, I don’t want to spoil anything. But it created a more realistic tone. I mean, not realistic, but even I could see the kind of brain science used in creating the universe that I had missed before.. if that makes any sense...” It sounded not as smart when said out loud. “But that’s just one possible recommendation!” She quickly tried to recover any grounds she had lost.

When she saw the woman fall, Kelly gasped and moved forward to help her get up. She’d never meant for her presence to scare someone so much that they fell on her butt. However, before she reached where the woman was, she was up again and talking brightly. “Tea would be great,” she said with a quirked eyebrow. This woman was overly sweet. Who was kind to a stranger that scared them so badly they fell and were trespassing on their property?
When a hand was presented before her, she took it gently and shook it in greeting. “Dory,” she said as she tested the name out on her tongue. “I can put a name to your cute face. I’m sorry for making you fall. I’d offer to kiss it better, but kissing someone’s bum is a bit too much for a first meeting even for me,” she said with a wink. “As for your bees, I won’t swat them as long as they promise not to sting. Oh, and stay away from my ears. The buzzing can eventually drive me crazy.” That introduction might have seemed weird to most, but Kelly just went with the flow. As long as she wasn’t being weirded out or in trouble, she was typically fine. “It’s your birthday, sweet girl,” she asked with a smile. “I’ve shown up empty handed. I’ll have to think of something to give you before our time is up. The library I’m sure is gorgeous. If you’re there, I can promise to visit.” Kelly was always a giant flirt, and she was definitely a sucker for a cute girl. She had no self restraint.
Kelly followed Dory towards the little nook of the greenhouse and took a seat in one of the chairs that were available. “Anything that won’t put me to sleep is totally okay. You’re being sweet enough by inviting me inside this gorgeous space, so I’m not picky.” Although it would be hard to make her sleepy, she had been doing a lot of exploring throughout the day. She was about to say more when her words caught in her throat at the sight of skin. The skirt Dory was wearing had bunched up slightly to reveal more thigh than intended, although the skirt was still ridiculously short. “You know, you made overalls look hot. Now, you’re just being a plain tease,” she said with a little huff. Being forward and direct was always Kelly’s preferred way of communication. “The island is cute, and the people are cuter. What’s there to complain about?”
.
“Wh-” Now, to state that Dorothy’s face was so red, her ears tinged in colour, would be an understatement. The bees that swarmed her weren’t aggressive – they were more curious about her, and most came from under her shirt in some form. Some flew, some crawled on her, like worried little bees. This wasn’t anxiety, after all, and Dory didn’t feel a threat from the other woman. This was different. She wasn’t being cat called, or given an innocent compliment here or there; this was blunt flirting that even she was picking up on. It wasn’t like it was news that she knew she looked cute, or that sexy could even be used (though she saw herself as more cute than sexy, but knew others had different perspectives, and she just felt cute, so she assumed that’s what she presented as), but hearing it in those words made her... flustered.
It wasn’t the woman’s lips on her ass she imagined, but her hands. “Do.. do I say thank-you?” She asked honestly, embarrassed by the confusion. “When.. someone compliments you, and you feel comfortable, you.. you thank them. And I don’t feel cat called or uncomfortable; I feel flattered. But I don’t know how to respond to- to show- I don’t-” She began to pull at the sleeves of her shirt, feeling comforted by the bees, and took a deep breath, closing her eyes. She tried remembering some things Ava mentioned. In situations like this. As she opened her eyes and was calming down, half the bees had disappeared back into her body – and yes, some even through her face. “I think you’re really pretty, too!” She blurted out, a little louder than she meant, which caused her to blush a little more, if that were possible. “Sorry, I.. I just.. you’re pretty.” It was an understatement, but Dory didn’t know how to find the right words while this anxious just yet.
“Every honey bee you’ve ever met has a perfect track record and has never not once stung anyone. Not ever. Not in the history of ever. Pinky promise!” She quickly lead into the response about the bees, instead of lingering on her awkward compliment, and walked over to the other, holding out her pinky. “If they sting, they die. Except the queen. So.. they don’t really wake up and choose violence.” She added, face still flushed, nervously trying to maintain eye contact. All while overthinking if it was too much eye contact or not enough and every thought her anxiety ran with under those main points.
“I’m twenty-three.” She continued to respond, and the majority of her bees were back inside her now, as she was much calmer now. “How does an apple pie tea sound to you?” She asked with a smile, excited to be able to share something she made with someone else. No one really chose tea over coffee these days, and especially not tea with no caffeine. She completely skipped over the compliment about the other thinking she was gorgeous, but only because she was blushing again and didn’t trust herself to speak. And okay, it wasn’t a complete accident that she removed the overalls in the fashion that she had – she was feeling really good about herself because of the compliments, and she would have given more back than a simple ‘pretty,’ if she knew how to flirt.
“O-okay, that.” She pointed out, nervously flattening her skirt to give herself something to do. “I don’t know how to respond to that. The.. I don’t hate that you’re saying them. It.. makes me feel good. But I’m not use to them, and you’re.. really very pretty. Beautiful, even. And.. and I don’t really know how to do the thing where you let someone know in a sexy way or the way you’re doing it.” She spoke quickly, but softly and nervously. “I’m glad you like my outfit. I like my outfit. I think it looks good on me. And I wanted you to see it..” She admitted sheepishly, looking down at her hands, which were pulling on the sleeves. “I-I wanted.. you to think it looks good on me, too.”

@dauntlessxdemigods - Dory
Ava had been contacted by Kai, he was worried about Dory and had hoped that maybe – just maybe she could help. Kai had told her that the attack at the masquerade party had really scared and made Dory fold in on herself more than she had been. So Ava got herself together, and made her way to the library. She would just wander until she bumped into the girl and would try to help her in whatever way she could. No matter how long it took.
Which – took a while it seemed. She had been in the library for two hours already. Luckily she had actually found a couple items she really liked. She was wondering around, and turned a corner – only to run right into the woman she had been looking for this whole time. “So sorry!” she said picking up the book she dropped.
“Oh, no, that’s my fault! I apologize! I should have been paying more attention, really.” Dory insisted with a friendly and welcoming smile to the other. She bent down to pick the book up at the same time, but relented as the other got there first. “Are you finding everything you’re looking for, Ma’am?” She asked, hoping to help the other if needed. “And is there anything I can help you find?” She did love working at the library, even if she never wanted to make it a lifetime thing. Besides, she was also likely too close in age to Kai to even be a contender to take over. Not that she liked to think about that sort of thing – because a world in which Kai is no longer around was one Dory pretended to believe would never exist.
“I’ve noticed you’ve been here a while, so, please – if you’re in need of assistance, I’ll do my best to help you out. Or, if you just have an idea of what you’re looking for, I’m sure I could make some great recommendations. Certainly not as great as Kai, but I’ll do my best!”

Closed Starter Kelly & Dory @dauntlessxdemigods
While Kelly definitely tended to be her most active at night, she figured it would be good for her to get a lay of the land since the isle was going to be her new home. She knew that Millie would have happily given her a tour if she asked, but half of the fun of exploring was getting lost. Things would better stick in her mind that way anyway.
As she was walking, a beautiful greenhouse caught her eye, and Kelly couldn’t stop herself from wandering towards it. One of her favorite parts of wedding planning was getting to go with the couples to pick out the flowers they wanted to use. While she was most known for having a great relationship with vines from her father, she could appreciate all flowers. The wildness of them appealed to her. When she caught sight of a woman inside, she couldn’t help but pause and smile. “You know, seeing a cute girl dancing is always a way to get someone to want to trespass on your property,” she teased lightly but made sure she was loud enough to be heard from the entrance. “I hope you don’t mind. I’m new to the isle and was walking around, but I couldn’t help but be drawn to this place. You could say I have a problem with impulse control,” she said with a slight smirk.
Dorothy heard the voice before she registered the words, and removed her headphones, as she turned a little too fast, stumbling over herself, and landing on her bottom. She was already embarrassed, but then the words of what was said hit her – her face went as red as the strawberries she grew. It wasnt even like she looked all that cute at the moment, what with her overalls on, and hair in a loose braid t the side. It took Dory maybe a little too long to answer, as she just sat there, bees flying around her nervously, blushing and staring at the beautiful woman who just walked into her greenhouse. But, she did gather herself, and as she did, her bees calmed down, also.
“Hi!” She perked up with a large, friendly smile. “Would you like some tea?” She asked, standing up, and masking her anxiety about yet another pretty girl wandering in. She removed the headphones from her neck, then sat them down before her fingers nimbly worked to undo the braid in her hair, running her hand through it a few times before it fell naturally over her shoulders. It was odd, perhaps, but the better Dory felt about her physical appearance, the easier it was to cope around people.
“Welcome to Icaria!” She continued, walking over to the other. “I’m Dory! Please don’t swat my bees. They’re delightful, if only a little curious. But they won’t hurt you.” She told the other, holding out her hand for a shake. “I’ve lived here most of my life with my Papa. He owns the Library. It’s really a great place if you wanted to check it out! I work there most days, but since it’s my birthday, today, I’m just with my bees in my greenhouse today.” She realized she was talking too much. “Oh! Please, come in and sit down!” There was a nook in the greenhouse that had tinted windows instead of clear, and that was clearly a makeshift bachelor area of sorts that was almost liveable. Including a small table with two chairs. “I have all sorts of tea, but all without caffeine.” She explained as she began to undress – sort of.
Really, she just unbuckled her overalls, and began removing them, revealing a whole other outfit underneathe. One that was kept clean from the dirt and suchfrom the upkeep of her greenhouse. She lay them on a stool in a corner, before lighting her wood stove, to get it going for the kettle of water. “How are you liking Icaria so far? Can I help you with anything?”

Raye raised an eyebrow and then shook her head, “I don’t know if we can be friends if you will be a ninja. The whole Pirate ninja war means choosing a side and I long ago chos Pirates.” She teased. But at the mention of Apples she smirked; she had seen Kira on the streams, she knew what she looked like – but there was something about seeing the other in person that had blinded her into – not accepting that it was the same woman. She too was a Demi-god. How fucking a small world.
“Oh rightfully so. The one that sticks with me adores his apples, ends up eating them all before I get a chance to have one.” She laughed shaking her head, she did legitimately mean her father ate the apples rather quickly but – Kira didn’t need to know that quite yet. “Please, geek out” Raye smiled and then held her arms out to hug the other woman. “I love a good geek out and a hug!”
“You say that now, but wait until you see how sexy I am as a ninja. Just saying.” She mentioned with a wink. “You know the trope of a thief pressing the princess against the wall with a knife, and there’s totally sexual tension and it’s shipped? Okay think that, but.. pirates and ninjas. You and me. Tiktok.” She suggested with a playful wink.
“Ever tried switching it up? Giving them a really sour granny smith apple? Edible paint works wonders. Forget painting the roses red – paint the apples red!” She joked with a jovial laugh, before excitedly enveloping the other in a hug. Then, like she was electricuted, she pulled away, even more excited, holding Raye’s hands in her own. “Oh my god, we need to get matching tattoos!” Kira was somewhat impulsive sometimes. “We’re already shipped, so let’s give our followers something to gossip and ponder about! Plus, I totally think it could be fun! Apples! With R and K on them!”

chloevara:
“Oh, it’s nice to meet you, Cordelia! I’m Chloe. Thank you very much for the advice. I’m not sure I’ll remember, but that’s so interesting. Brains are confusing.” That was an understatement on the best of days. Chloe really did not know how hers worked, and at this point, she was too afraid to ask. “Oh! Uhm! I don’t know if that’s such a good idea. Maybe I can just walk you to your boat, and you can tell me all about it instead. I- I wouldn’t want to get in your way, and I, ah, uhm, don’t really know if it’s such a good idea.” Chloe was not sure how to explain that getting onto a vessel that was inescapable sounded like the last thing that she wanted to do at the moment. She wasn’t an especially strong swimmer either; water could be Mari’s thing, and apparently this lady’s thing.
“You wouldn’t be getting in my way at all. I’m considering it an opportunity to make a new friend. And since I was heading there, anyways, now I could do so with company – potentially. But I hear there’s a whole stranger danger thing going around these days, so if it makes you feel any better, we could take a picture together and post it on my instagram?” She asked with a smile. “I have.. a decent amount of followers, so even if I took it down, it’d be too late. And since water is where I feel safest, I think I’m good.” She mentioned with an inviting smile. “But if not, that’s okay, too. Totally not trying to pressure you. Maybe we could get lunch, instead? My treat?”

wyatt-thompson:
“It really is! I mean, I wouldn’t have it any other way. For the longest time, the fans are the reason why I keep doing what I do. If it weren’t for all their love and support, I wouldn’t know what I’d do.” Wyatt had started her channel without ever showing her face since, at the time, she was still transitioning. She was still going through with accepting how she looked like and how her body was changing, and the last thing she needed was for strangers asking her a lot of questions and making her second-guess her decisions. She had been so young, just thirteen, when she first posted her animated shorts, looking back on them now, she didn’t really know where that would have led her to, but all she knew was that she wanted to become an animator. After she had grown quite a following and was at the point in her life where her appearance matched how she saw herself on the inside, she finally did a face reveal at nineteen. The feedback was overwhelming, and she was able to get sponsorship deals and more modeling gigs. She was able to branch out her career from just being a local animator and cosplayer to something on the national level. You bet your ass she had a little party with her brothers when she hit a million subscribers.
With over 50 million subscribers now, she was glad she had a whole team backing her up from Icaria and the United States to help manage her fanbase, social media accounts and merch. Even when she unofficially took an indefinite hiatus, she and her team had already filmed and drew out all sorts of content to keep her channel running, and she did a few appearances on Twitch streams just so her fans wouldn’t worry. Technically, to her fans, she still had regular content running on Youtube. In terms of fanbase interaction, she’d pretty much been radio silent for the past 3 months. “Aww, that’s so sweet of you. I absolutely love your work and couldn’t believe we live on the same island, so it’s honestly just all so convenient that neither of us have to fly off anywhere. I’d love to hear all of your ideas! This is going to be a little series of collabs that I’ll be alternating with other content, so I have a few things queued for about a month or so. This is why I need to get back to it soon and get on top of things,” she explained.
She laughed and blushed as she listed down a battery of female heroines with similar powers. “Yeah, I feel like my powers are the most similar to Monica Dawson’s. I mean, my brothers are sons of 2 of the Big Three, so that’s not really something to take lightly,” she said with a laugh. She ordered a vegetarian pizza with some caprese before she smiled at Cordelia. “I’m fine with whatever, really. I cleared out my whole day, for this. I kinda wanted to go through it by categories like random challenges, tutorials, costume/makeup designs, animations?”
“I’ve literally seen every one of your videos. I may have stalked you way back when. You’re just absolutely brilliant.” She spoke truthfully with a warm smile. Youtube was something Kira was active with, but most of her content there involved streams she posted, question and answer videos, behind the scene videos to cosplay, and collaborations. But her instagram, tiktok, and twitter were what she worked on mainly for day to day things. Kira had finished going to school and had her Master’s for when she chose to try and really settle into video game design. But for now, she wanted to travel and cosplay and game.
“Well, I do want to do at least one charity thing with you. Not for nothing, but my almost two million isn’t anything compared to yours. Now, I’m still in the mindset that even one hundred followers is a lot, so my mind is constantly blown. But monthly charity things are important to me. I was thinking, maybe we could do design? Take commissions for things like.. D&D characters, book characters, fandom requests, mini comics? I was thinking we could take requests starting at the beginning of the month, for two weeks. And have tiers. Regular price, digital file. Extra, a digital file, plus two printed copies; one signed by us both, and mailed out? For even more, maybe some animations, costume designs even? And every such and such amount spent, is one ticket into a draw to get a giveaway?” She had many ideas. “I also like the idea of initiating a beach.. slash ocean slash environment clean up. You know, a cool hashtag, getting people to take pictures of themselves next to the garbage they cleaned up. Even just tidying up a local park. A small paragraph on maybe why that place means a lot to them? What they’re doing to help the environment? And charity of your choice. I’m thinking alphabet mafia charity this time around. There are some excellent choices. What do you think so far?”
A whole day sounded absolutely perfect. They could probably get some things filmed today. Just rough clips of things like planning and pictures. “We could go sailing after lunch?” She asked. “I have my boat here. And I’d love to do my Twister challenge with you!” It was like regular Twister, except.. blue paint went on the blue circle, red on the red, etc. And you played with the slippery paint on the mat. “But my brain isn’t nearly as organized as yours seems to be.” She commented with a laugh.

Coming to Icaria was just – so strange, between her mother telling her she needed to come and then realizing her sisters, realizing Kira was here, on the isle felt somewhat overwhelming. She had been on the isle for just a tiny bit over a week, and in that week so much had changed. Of course moving was the biggest, she was in a new country again, she was living on her own, without being beholden to anyone (the biggest change in her opinion!), she was surrounded by other demi gods (surprisingly not as big except for the fact that it meant that Kira was one too. Which was just shocking.)
Jolene followed Kira on her different socials when she found out, but when she woke up this morning she was scrolling through instagram and saw Kira post a photo of herself on the beach with a boat in the background she recognized as being docked nearby. So she slipped into a bathing suit, put on a dress and made her way down to the beach. She stuffed a towel under her arm and adjusted her hat as she walked. She stepped onto the beach and saw Kira out in the water swimming around and cleaning. When Kira waved she waved back and chuckled, shaking her head as she walked closer.
As Jolene neared she heard the woman starting to speak and her eyes roamed the other’s body. She didn’t mean to, but – well Kira was in a bathing suit and – oh gods there was blood. She flet her hand move to her mouth and cover it. “Oh gods.” She said aloud her eyes landing on each of the little marks. “It looks quite bad, do you need medical attention? I can – I can help you to the hospital.” She offered taking another step forward, her eyes darting between each spot and then to Kira’s eyes. “No, no I can’t say I have. The closest I got was petting a dolphin at one of those aquariums… and I’ve never seen a shark in person. I would not want to get between the two…” She trailed off and bit her lip brow furrowed when she heard the hiss “We should really sanitize those, make sure they don’t get infected.”
Her fingers were hovering in the air over the other woman’s body, wanting to help but not being totally sure how to. Her eyes searched Kira’s and then she realized that Kira was trying to place her and the smallest twinkle of excitement shot through her body. She felt her cheeks warm at the words that slipped from Cordi’s lips and hung between them, and she did as she had done years ago and just slowly nodded her head with a smile on her face.
“You’re sweet, but it’s really not that bad. She didn’t actually bite me. I just brushed against her like barb wire. I swear those dolphins could learn some manners sometimes.” She spoke with a laugh. “I hate aquariums..” She had been once – but she heard the sadness the animals felt. Actually, she jumped in the shark tank once, which freaked out just about everybody. But the poor guy needed a hug, it seemed. She didn’t get a chance to jump in anymore tanks, though. She was eight. “I have a first aid kit in my bag. I also have a sewing kit and reef glue; I prefer the glue.” She pointed out with a genuine smile, though eyes still remained closed, because she knew those teeth would be a bitch to remove at least.
The nod she was given by the other was a surprise. Kira had truly just been repeating her question to show recognition of the other. However, there was no way in hell she would ignore the permission she was just granted. She used her ability to warp water over her hand to wash away the blood, and then slid her hand behind the woman’s neck, bringing their lips together in a long awaited kiss. It was gentle, but passionate in the way it lingered, eventually ending with a nip; a kiss she never thought she’d get again from this woman.
“We have a problem.” She whispered against the others’ lips, nudging their noses together. “I’m no good with pain. But now I have to impress you.” She teased as she finally pulled away, smiling into Jolene’s eyes as she caressed her cheek with her thumb. “So either I have to leave the teeth in until you leave – which isn’t happening any time soon – or you’re going to have to help me remove them and pretend I’m all tough about it.” She chuckled a little, still trying to wrap her head around how Jolene was even here and why, and the fact they were on the beach at the same time.

Sea Shanty ⚓
Kira emerged from the water a bit of ways from shore, casually walking out of the waters. She ran her hands through her hair to gt it out of the way as she slowly started to walk to shore. As she walked to where the water was now about an inch below her shoulder level, she had turned and yelled into the water. “We’ll work on your manners tomorrow! Totally not cool, yeah?” A pause. “Yeah, I bet you thought that was funny!” When she turned back around, she was laughing, however. And as her shoulders and chest came into view, it became evident that she was bleeding – not a whole lot, but it was certainly more than a scratch.
It wouldn’t be hard to find the woman – she had posted something in instagram earlier, about where she was going, hoping to clean up some trash from the water, and also hang out with some new friends. She noticed someone on the shore, smiling and giving the stranger a small wave, continuing to work her way through the sea. Her abdomen (she was wearing a bikini, revealing a bit more blood as her body left the water), was also injured, but it wasn’t anything to truly worry about. She finally walked up to shore, unwrapping a cuff from her ankle – which was attached to a small two foot rope, and a fabric ‘garbage’ bag a fan had made for her – and tossed it into the sand. She ran another hand through her hair, this time moving the water from it, and as she ran it through her long locks, it dried behind the hand that went through it. Kira proceeded to do the same with her bathing suit, smiling at the other woman.
“It totally looks worse than it actually is.” She tried to assure the other, finally sitting down in the sand, laying back with her eyes closed, a hand over her abdomen – it may be a few wounds that needed a stitch or two, but that didn’t mean they didn’t hurt like hell. “Swimming with dolphins is all fun and games until one of them decides to punt a baby shark for the hell of it. Ever slipped between a shark and a dolphin to stop a fight before?” She asked with a laugh, hissing as her free hand attempted to pull a tooth from her front shoulder. There was only about half a dozen teeth in her body in total, and her survival was thanks to her ability to communicate with the animals, but the shark in question wasn’t happy, nonetheless.
Opening her eyes, she was hit with a familiarity about the other woman, and took a deep breath as she sat back up again, just staring at her. Probably a little too long, studying her carefully. When recognition finally hits her, her eyes light up as the pain leaves her mind a moment. Then, she repeated the same words she first spoke to the woman a couple years ago.
“May I also kiss the Fae?”

divine-conquer:
Now that Luke was back, and the shock of everything had slowly started to wear off, he figured it was time to catch up on some gaming that he’d missed out on while he was missing. The Chief had welcomed him back with open arms, but had given him a few weeks to settle in before he had to return back to work, which he was grateful for. He had been looking through some of the new releases when he heard the woman speaking, her words bringing a hearty laugh to his lips. He kept his eyes on the game that he was perusing. “You know, I never thought of it like that but you have a point, there. I guess the world could take a lesson from the pirates handbook…” he trailed off as he looked up, first noticing the cosplay and then the woman who’d spoken. His mouth fell slightly, recognizing the woman before him- “Holy shit- you’re Kira aren’t you? I watch you all the time.” He instantly began back tracking as a light blush fell on his cheeks. “I mean- on your streams of course. Big fan.”
Kira was about to reply, when the other apparently recognized her – and wasn’t he just a cutie, too! She was humbled, as she was anytime someone recognized her. But she did enjoy giving a random reaction each time. This time, she just smiled and looked at him with a playful smirk. “That’s right, I’m Kira. And what can you do? Kill me right here?” She asked with a raised eyebrow – it was a quote from Death Note, which had been her favourite anime by far for years. Even still was. It as her first cosplay, too. Her handle across the board was based on it.
And then her nose scrunched and she laughed a little. “I guess it’s a good thing you don’t watch me in the shower, then. It’d be a little creepy. Although, you’re certainly handsome enough to want to invite into the shower.” She teased with a wink, holding out her hand for him. “It’s a pleasure to meet you, Cutie. Kira, as you already know. Can I take a picture with you?”

maristela:
Mari wasn’t sure why there was a pirate on the beach. Her first thought was that maybe pirates had come through the doors too, along with the mermaids and centaurs, but she quickly dismissed it as highly unlikely. The woman soon started talking about what she liked about pirates in a way that sounded like she wasn’t a pirate, confirming that this was probably just a cool outfit choice. “That’s true! Do you… know any pirates?” she asked. She still figured probably not, but it was best to make sure.
“I know plenty of pirates!” She replied with a grin. “Unfortunately, they’re all just fictional characters. But today I’m a pirate, and I know myself?” She laughed a little, before carefully removing the green wig she wore, and placing it in its’ own bag, before putting it away in another bag on the sand. She then shook out her hair, humming with approval of the freedom of the wig, and flipped back over to stand up again.
“Don’t get me wrong, I love randomly cosplaying for the pictures and instastories and tik toks. But damn, if I wasn’t looking forward to my beach time.” She then paused a few times, looking around, then back to the other – who in their right mind enjoyed hanging out on the beach in the middle of winter? “Are beaches a popular thing here, even in the winter?” She asked curiously, continuing to undress from her cosplay.

Raye chuckled as she leaned against the wall talking to Cordelia, as a voice actress she knew tons of cosplayers and it always made her day to meet others that liked that world as much as she did. “You’re not even sort of wrong. Pirates are the best.” she smiled, “all those people who say that ninjas are better are totally wrong.” Raye continued, “I like this Zoro costume.” she said using her free hand to motion to the woman’s outfit.
“I mean, I might be a ninja tomorrow, but I will always have to favour pirates.” Kira replied with a grin towards the other. She was absolutely playing it cool, because her initial reaction when seeing Raye, was to completely fan girl. “Do you like it as much as the apples?” She asked with a raised eyebrow, clearly trying to contain her laughter and composure.
“Do you know Death Gods love apples?” She whispered as she leaned forward a bit, playfully winking at the other woman. How on earth their fun started was even beyond Kira, but she was having a blast with it. And to just see the woman on the street? It was absolutely wild, and they would have to cosplay a skit or two together now. “Okay, so I can only keep my cool for so long before I geek out, and I’d totally like to just hug you now, Gorgeous. Is that okay?”

chloevara:
Chloe had absolutely no idea where this statement had come from, and she was not sure whether or not it was supposed to be taken as a joke. Not wanting to be impolite, she shrugged a little and offered up a confused smile. “That’s… so nice of them! I wish that they had the means to get off the seas because I imagine it would be difficult to have a crewmate prone to seasickness. Not something good to accommodate for,” Chloe replied, not 100% sure that she had her facts on pirates up-to-date. But it was always polite to engage people with conversations they found interesting, right?
Kira couldn’t help but laugh at the other woman – but in an amused way. “You’re totally going out of your way to try and be nice, Gorgeous. And I appreciate that! Definitely caught me off guard, though. But it’s okay, you don’t have to have any idea what I’m talking about; most people don’t.” She held out her hand for the other. “I’m Cordelia. And if you want to fix your sea sickness, just plug one of your ears. It doesn’t matter which ear, just get an earplug and it’ll fix it right up!” She told the other with a grin. “Basically, it tricks your brain into thinking something’s wrong with your ars, so instead of focusing on the fact that you’re moving but not moving, with the whole what you’re seeing thing being confusing, it focuses on what your eyes are telling you, instead.”
She waited for the other to take in what she was saying before she said something else. “Wanna give it a try?” She asked happily. “We could take a boat out right now! I was actually on my way to my boat at the moment, anyways. Was looking forward to doing some diving. Interested?”

nocturnal-ness:
“Yeah, perhaps not the best idea.” Ness laughed once she had taken the woman’s hand and was standing up, looking down at her boots. “You’re right though, they are cute.” Her brows furrowed together for a moment, wondering what she was on about. “I’m all right – you can dry my clothes? Well that’s cool. Please, feel free, thank you.”
“More like I can pull the water from them. It’s just easier to touch the fabric to do it.” She grinned at the other woman before placing a hand on her shoulder, then another on the side of her thigh – two spots that were least invasive – and closed her eyes. She proceeded to pull the water in the fabric towards her hands, then pulled it from it all together, letting the later just fall once it was gone. “You’re totally gorgeous, did you know that?” She asked, before holding out her hand. “Anyways, I’m Cordelia. And I have to know where you got those boots.”
