"Cyborg's really cool. He's more often than not the voice of reason in the group. Though, he has his moments where he's just as crazy and excited as anyone. He's very smart, and not just because he's part robot. Loves cars, built his own from scratch."

"He's really tall, right?" Nella says before taking another big crunchy bite.

"Uh, yeah," Raven says. "Like over six foot, for sure."

"Hmm~!" Nella says with her mouth full. "I really like taller guys."

"Well maybe if you come to California in the future, we'll introduce you," Raven chuckles.

"Geia~!" someone greets as the walk up from above.

"Geia~!" Nella replies. "<Hold on, I'll get the steps.>"

Nella uses Nature magic to manipulate roots and branches to create a staircase. Two young women the same age as Nella and Raven walk down carefully, one wearing high-heel sandals similar to the ones Rorek bought Raven in Hawaii. As for the swimsuits they're wearing, it's all bright colors with these girls. Nella wears bright orange while these girls are bright pink and blue.

"Raven," Nella says as her friends walk up. "Meet Acacia and Calida."

"Geia~!" Calida in the blue says and waves to Raven.

Calida gives Nella a hug and a kiss before moving to the cooler. Acacia also gives Nella a kiss, but on the cheek, before joining Calida.

"Uhh... I thought you three were just friends," Raven says.

"We are," Nella says. "Don't you kiss your female friends?"

"No..." Raven says, blushing. "Though, I feel like a certain female friend wouldn't mind it."

"Oh, Starfire?" Nella says with bright eyes. "I wouldn't mind spending time with her, too."

"She's definitely very social," Raven says. "And positive and energetic and it's sometimes annoying, but she means well."

"Plus, she's so pretty," Calida says. "I love her hair."

"Those eyes are nice, too," Acacia says. "Hey, were are the seats?"

"Oh, right, sorry," Nella says. "Raven and I were having fun talking, I forgot."

Nella uses more Nature magic to form bench seats. The legs and frame are roots, while there are cushiony leaves and other foliage to sit on. Raven sits on one while Nella and her friends sit on the other, the shallow river flowing between them. Nella and her friends giggle as Calida tries to sit on Nella's lap while Nella tries to sit on Acacia's and Acacia tries to sit back on Nella's.

"Oh, careful," Nella says as her ice cream bar starts falling apart.

A good sized piece falls on Nella's chest and she squeals from the glob of cold ice cream on her skin.

"I got it!" Calida says.

She licks it off Nella's skin!

"Um, well," Raven says, blushing more. "You girls really are close..."

Raven then lets out a little squeal because chocolate ice cream dripped on her chest.

"D-Don't lick it off!" Raven says as she turns away.

"Don't worry, Raven," Acacia laughs while Raven quickly wipes the ice cream up. "We don't lick those who don't give consent. Unless it'll be fun."

Raven blushes and shrinks in her seat but Acacia just laughs more.

"We should move these seats closer together," Calida says. "Raven feels so far away."

"Okay, okay," Nella says as she has the benches move while everyone is seated.

The two separate benches combine into one big circular bench, and the four end up taking a quarter. Calida and Acacia giggle as they move closer to Raven on either side.

A) Stay put
B) Move to sit by Nella on her left
C) Move to sit by Nella on her right

Raven slips out from between Calida and Acacia and sits by Nella on Nella's right.

"Hey...!" Calida pouts.

"That's not gonna stop me!" Acacia grins.

With Calida on Raven's own right, Acacia comes up the middle to straddle herself on one leg of Raven's and one leg of Nella's. Calida comes up even closer and Raven realizes she really just made things worse for herself.

"Oh c'mon, Raven, just relax," Nella says. "We're all just having fun."

Raven grumbles as she has no choice but to eat her ice cream sandwich more. And she eats it fast so it can't drip on her.

Acacia and Calida are having popsicles. Acacia is having a cherry popsicle while Calida is having an orange one. They suck and slurp and at this close proximity, Raven can see the cherry red coloring Acacia's golden brown lips.

"Wanna taste?" Acacia asks with a sly smirk. "The popsicle, that is."

"N-No," Raven says, blushing. "You girls do that, too?"

"Not really," Acacia giggles. "I'm just teasing you."

"Although..." Nella says with a growing smile. "I wouldn't mind."

Nella opens her mouth and Acacia puts her cherry popsicle on Nella's tongue. Nella sucks the popsicle in while Acacia smiles and bites her lower lip.

"Cia, Cia," Calida says.

Acacia looks over and Calida offers up her orange popsicle. Acacia giggles and happily slurps Calida's popsicle. Raven is bright red as she's in the middle of a very strange situation. She scarfs down her ice cream sandwich so none of the others could have it.

"Raven, have some of Nella's ice cream bar," Calida says.

"Uh..." Raven says nervously.

"Aw c'mon~," Nella pouts as she stops sucking on Acacia's popsicle. "Just a bite?"

Nella holds the ice cream bar up for Raven, the vanilla slowly sloshing out.

"Or maybe a taste of my orange pop?" Calida offers. "If Cia would stop- Cia, stop."

Acacia lets go of the orange popsicle and returns to her cherry one.

A) Take a taste of orange
B) Take a bite of the ice cream bar
C) Get a new snack

"Okay, okay," Raven concedes. "Gimme the orange."

Calida holds her popsicle up and Raven wraps her lips around it. Raven slurps and lets the orange juice melt into her mouth. Raven gets a few gulps then backs off.

"Hmm," Raven says. "Following chocolate up with orange, that's quite a taste combination."

"Here, let me have that ice cream bar," Acacia says as she gets up off Raven's leg.

Acacia sits on Nella's lap and Nella brings the ice cream bar up under her arm.

"Careful not to get any in my hair," Acacia teases.

Acacia helps guide the ice cream bar up and slurps a big glob of vanilla off. Nella switches hands so that she can help guide Acacia's hand to bring the cherry popsicle to her mouth.

"Raven," Calida says. "Here, have more."

Calida finds a way to straddle Raven from the side, her leg hooking Raven's, as she again offers the popsicle.

"I, uh," Raven nervously says.

All the sounds of slurping and this skin-on-skin contact are making her feel awkward. But she reluctantly slurps on the orange popsicle again.

"So, Raven," Calida says, "how far have you gone with Rorek?"

If there was a way to spit-take a popsicle, Raven almost found it. Nella herself makes a protesting grumble sound while still slurping the cherry popsicle.

"No," she says as she pulls it out. "No talking about my distant cousin like that."

"Oh c'mon...!" Acacia groans. "You have your hot older brother and your hot cousins, but we can't talk about them!"

"Because their my brother and cousins," Nella points out.

"At least give us like a number," Calida says. "Like the baseball bases metaphor."

"Let me cover my ears first," Nella says as she ushers Acacia off her lap.

A) Tell them the details
B) Don't tell them

"No, no, no," Raven says. "I'm not going to tell you any of the details. Not even using the bases."

"Thank you, Raven," Nella says.

"Boo...!" the others complain.

"Just deal with it," Nella grumbles at them.

"Whatever," Acacia says as she gets up off Nella's lap. "What else are we going to do other than share snacks?"

"We could just relax," Calida says. "You always have to do something."

"Not doing a single thing to relax is just sleeping," Acacia says as she sits opposite of Raven. "So c'mon, how about a game? Or Raven at least shares some not juicy stories of her and Rory."

A) A game
B) Non-lewd stories

"Yeah, we can play a game," Raven says. "Just nothing weird!"

"Aw c'mon, we were just going to play Truth or Dare," Acacia says.

"No, because you can use that game to be weird," Raven grumbles.

"Fine, fine," Acacia pouts.

"How about something like Rock-Paper-Scissors?" Calida asks.

"That's really only fun if it's for something," Nella says. "Like a prize or a turn with something."

"How about kisses?" Calida suggests.

"No, nothing weird," Raven says.

"Kisses aren't weird," Calida says. "Watch. Cia."

Acacia scoots over to Calida and Calida kisses her on the cheek. Acacia returns to kiss to the cheek and then the two nuzzle cheeks.

"Well... Only if you keep it that way," Raven says. "The moment you try to go for lips, I'm done."

"We promise!" they both say.

The four girls sit equally spaced out, and ready their hands.

"Rock, paper, scissors, shoot!" all four say as Raven prepares...

A) Rock
B) Paper
C) Scissors

Her scissors loses to everyone else doing rock!

"Woo!" Acacia says. "We get to kiss Raven!"

"Wait, what?" Raven says as they swarm her.

"Kissing is the reward, not the punishment, silly," Calida says.

Nella and Calida kiss Raven on the cheeks, and Acacia kisses her between the eyes.

"Okay, okay, you got what you wanted," Raven says. "We should probably start heading back, Nella."

"Boo...!" her friends protest.

"No, she's right," Nella says. "We've been gone long enough. But you girls can go with."

"Yay~!" her friends cheer.

"Go ahead and grab something for the road," Nella says to Raven. "Or I guess for the water."

A) Grab snacks
B) Don't grab snacks

"I'll grab something for Rorek, too," Raven says.

Raven brings out a couple ice cream sandwiches and uses her magic to protect the wrapping from the water. She then swims with Nella and her friends back to where the family is.

[Back to Rorek]

"Wow~!" the children say.

You step back and admire your work on the sand sculpture of a sleeping rhinoceros. You're particularly proud of the work on the horns.

Four young women swim up and you spot Raven and Nella among them. You wave them over and then do your best not to take too much delight in seeing Raven walking up, glistening from the water dripping off her.

"Welcome back," you say before giving Raven a greeting kiss on her lips.

"Thank you," she smiles. "Want an ice cream sandwich?"

She brings up ice cream sandwiches in their wrapping.

"Oh, where did you get these?" you ask.

"Nella's secret hideout has a secret stash of food," Raven says.

"That's clever," you say as you take one.

You unwrap it and reveal it to be chocolate ice cream. Raven has the same flavor and the two of you eat up as you go up the coast.

"And those are Nella's friends, Acacia and Calida," Raven introduces.

"Geia~!" they both say as they wave.

Nella and her friends talk in Greek and giggle as they find a place to sit in the sand.

"Great rhino, by the way," Raven says.

"Thank you," you say. "It was the children's idea for it to be a rhinoceros. I was going to try for a giraffe, but there wouldn't be room."

A) Sit on the sand
B) Sit on the grass
C) Sit on a bench

You and Raven continue up the way and sit on the park bench. It has a nice, smooth rubber coating so there won't be splinters, but it is warm from being in the sun. The two of you watch the children carefully walk around the rhinoceros to then splash in the water.

"So what was Nella's hideout like?" you ask.

"It was fine," Raven says.

"And...?"

"I can't tell you anything about it," Raven chuckles. "It's her secret hideout."

"That's a good point."

Things are peaceful as the two of you watch the water shine under the sun.

"So what would you like from lunch?" you asks. "The men of the family are cooking up something good."

"Oooh, yeah, I can smell it," she says as the breeze brings over a whiff. "What're you having? Maybe we can share."

"Well I'm going for..."

A) Lamb
B) Sausage
C) Fish

"Some lamb. The uncles got it fresh from the market."

"Ooo, sounds nice," Raven says. "Mmm, smells nice, too."

"Perhaps we can split a rack," you say. "Have some of the mashed potatoes the aunts are making. They also found those at the market."

"Do they have butter?"

"Yes, but they went and got that from home."

"Rory," Great-Uncle Al says. "Come, get some lamb."

You lead Raven over and take a platter of the lamb ribs and a healthy serving of the mashed potatoes. You and Raven sit across from each other at the picnic table with the platter between you and use your plastic forks to peel the tender rack apart. Raven is first to pop a piece into her mouth.

"Mmm," Raven says. "This is really well seasoned."

You stab at a piece and pop that in your mouth. You feel the delicious mix of salt, pepper, olive oil and rosemary.

"Yes, very good," you say.

You and Raven eat up while Nella and her friends take their time walking over.

"So, for our little trip to the Heraion," you say. "I say we go for..."

A) Early morning
B) Mid-morning
C) Early afternoon

"That way, we can take our time with breakfast, drive out to Argos and perhaps have some lunch while we're there."

"A picnic in the Heraion, huh?" Raven smiles. "I like the sound of that. What would our picnic meal be?"

A) Sandwiches
B) Salad
C) Potato Salad

this is the laziest I've ever been with this and I'm so sorry

"We can bring sandwiches," you say. "We'll make whatever kind you want. Or whatever's available in Great-Uncle Al's kitchen."

"In a little picnic basket even," she smirks.

"If there's one available, I don't see why not," you smirk back.

The two of you chuckle and continue eating. Nella and her friends had themselves a helping of fish, and then her friends take their leave with big waves and blowing kisses.

"Are they blowing kisses at me?" you ask.

"I think they're blowing them at me," Raven grumbles as she shrinks into her shoulders.

The family finishes up their day of fun at the beach, and your sand rhino is still standing as everyone returns to the parking lot. You and Raven hop on Shadowfax and follow the others back to the Null-Xenos home.

"Wanna have that lightsaber fight?" Raven asks with a little smirk as the two of you head for your rooms.

"Ooo, yes, we can do that," you say.

"Okay, who gets the red Sith glow stick?"

A) Raven does
B) Coin flip for it
