Who: All the cute little heroes
When: Day 35, evening
Where: Back To Your Regularly Scheduled Great Outdoors, Just outside the train

[ The beach fades away all at once, taking the cheery sunshine with it as evening hits all at once-- it melts away in a shower of sparkles as the familiar setting re-emerges. There are new stars in the sky above in clover pink, senna red, jasmine blue, and licorice violet.

Just before the beach disappears entirely, the bubbly voice speaks once more: ]

Wasn't that so much fun! You all rrrrrreally got to know each other, didn't you? Keep up the good work~!

[ If you had any alcohol in hand you still have it, otherwise everything from the trial is gone. ]

[ Crow nods in response. ]

A knife's a good backup to have anyway, or else some other kind of bladed weapon.

That's true. Though I can't be sure how good longer blades would be. Hard to mess up a knife too badly.

That's true! And hey, going with what's comfortable's definitely the best idea.

[He nods.]

Thanks, by the way. For showing me the Orbal gun. Even if I can kill, I know a lot of people wouldn't like that to be the go to option with a threat. [He picks up a rock and tosses it up again, shooting it in the air.] And letting me try it out. THis is actually pretty relaxing.

Lethal's always an option but it's nice to have other choices too. And hey, no problem. I can totally relate to that-- sometimes it feels good to let some steam out this way.

True. Lots of ways to kill things. [To be fair, Wash could kill with a small stick if he wanted.] And it does. Not sure a nap would have done this much.

No kidding. Naps really only go so far.

Seriously. [But everyone keeps telling him to have one.] Sometimes gotta work out the nerves.

[ It's because he looks like he hasn't slept in years. ]

That's it exactly-- it's just the only thing for it sometimes.

[It's true]

At least someone gets it. [And tossing up more rocks to shoot. Little harder to hit with multiple targets.]

Everyone else means well, but sometimes I really think most of 'em are just on an entirely different wavelength.

[There's a pause.]

....yeah. A few different ones too. Makes it harder to figure out.

Well, don't go trying to figure 'em all out at once. You just got here, take your time with it.

I suppose I should.

[It's just frustrating.]

[ He can tell Wash is frustrated. ]

You seem like a pretty smart guy-- I'm sure you'll work it out.

I try. [He sighs.] Thanks.

Any time.

[ He pauses, then adds-- ]

Say, do you have a name yet?

Oh! Right, I didn't say.

It's Dusk.

Dusk! Alright, got it. It's a good name.

Thanks. Clover has a time theme.

A theme, huh? It's a pretty cute one.

Absolutely. Gotta represent our brand of adorable.

[He says while shooting rocks out of the air.]

[ Seems legit to Crow. ]

It's an important part of the whole aesthetic.

Very true.

Though I'm still gonna get some proper pants. [Overalls are not quite what he wants for possibly getting in a fight.]

The clothes are definitely not an important part of the aesthetic.

[ So says Crow, who refuses to wear Licorice's uniform in favour of an outfit of his own choosing. ]
