Trooper Station, Friday

[firstofitskind]

Liam was somewhat subdued as he got settled in his office. He and Verity had made vague plans over the weekend to go dancing at a club on the mainland sometime soon, and those vague plans had solidified as of this morning in to an actual outing later this evening. Which you'd think would have him in a good mood, but fun wasn't really going to be the purpose of this particular trip.

So if you needed him, Liam would be frowning over paperwork even more than usual today.

[ooc: open! with bouts of SP as i'm in the appliance mines once again today.]

Pick Your Poison, Friday

[intraspective]

Okay, okay, Ino had maybe hired a minion and then been the absolute worst at actually opening the shop to the public. She'd been doing a lot of work behind the scenes, making sure there was always new, fresh stock and trying out new configurations and scents for autumn...

But actually opening the store? Okay, fine, she'd been slacking off on that. It was her least favourite part of owning her own shop.

Still, making an appearance now and then was probably a thing she should do, so Ino wandered in, got things set up, and then settled herself behind the counter with a pot of very minty tea and amused herself with trying out new scent combinations on paper.

Pick Your Poison is Open!

The Park, Friday Afternoon

[uncertain_dume]

Today was hot. The sort of hot that had Kanan fondly reminiscing of those days when there was still snow on the ground.

Also the sort of hot that had Stance making a beeline for the duck pond, ducks or no ducks, because he just wanted to paddle around in the cool water for a while. And that was fine, sure. Kanan was going to just stake out a spot in the shade and meditate today instead of throwing himself too hard into any especially taxing workouts. He could save those for the evening, when things would be cooling down a little again. Unless Tip wanted a workout this afternoon, in which case, he'd at least brought extra water along today.

Ugh, summer. Sometimes living on a planet with controlled weather was the one thing he missed the most about Coruscant.

[OOC: ... We bought an AC unit, finally, in preparation of this weekend. I haven't had a Canada Day in years that hasn't ended in heat exhaustion. Open!]

The Beach - Friday - Hour or so before sundown - open party

[spectre_alenko]

It had taken some doing, including a run to the mainland, but mission accomplished. Kaidan closed down the C.I.C. early - most people had stayed indoors and avoided the heat during the day anyway - and hired a rickshaw to help tote things down to the beach.

Once there, he unloaded a couple large coolers, some paper shopping bags full of stuff, a pile of fabric - towels and beach blankets, mostly - a folding chair and a portable grill. He tipped the driver well and arranged for pickup later that night.

A large, colorful blanket was spread out and pinned at the corners with rocks to hold it down. The folding chair was opened, towels draped over the arms and beach blankets folded over the back. Grill unfolded, Kaidan staked the legs down so it wouldn't blow over, and circled the legs with rocks as added ballast.

Off to one side, he set the coolers. One was filled with ice, drinks, containers full of chilled fruit, some packages of ready-cooked brats. An assortment of other snacks was unceremoniously dumped from the paper bags onto a blanket next to the cooler. A disturbingly large container of glowstick necklaces was chucked onto the blanket as well.

The other cooler contained water-filled balloons...that were sitting on large, rectangular blocks of ice.

[Open! OCD is up. Come play.]

Groovy Tunes, Friday

[rebelseekspizza]

Dante had a perfectly awesome guitar. He even had another, equally perfectly awesome acoustic guitar, even if it didn't get played as much.

... He still couldn't keep his hands off of one of the new guitars that had arrived early that morning. Because look at it! Sure, getting it to sit on his knee somewhat comfortably was like, impossible.

He was still gonna be spending his entire shift at Groovy Tunes messing with it.
