[tramitem]

Who: Anyone and everyone in Trames - Please use this as a catach all for all your Summer Solstice Plot fun!
What: Exploring a whole knew world
When: Anytime between June 20 - July 4
Where: Around Krajina Božstiev
Rating/Warnings: Please add warnings to your top-levels/threads as needed


The streets of Krajina Božstiev are dusty and crowded. So many people on their way to live their lives. Markets, taverns, the Temple, the Palace. What do you look at first? What do you buy? Where to do you find yourself exploring?

Take a moment to appreciate the shine of the Temple. The beauty of the Palace gardens. The quiet serenity of the Library. The simplistic, but filling food in the taverns. Or the peaceful quaintness of the hills. A new world has opened up and somehow it all just seems simpler over here. People seem happy (mostly) in this existence.

Maybe...

Watch out for the occasional person going into a rage on the other side of the street or tavern. That can't mean anything...

I see what you did there

"Quite likely the same reason I don't recall my last couple of nights in Rome," Martin laughed. "Ouzo is a very, very fickle mistress, let me tell you. Though the ladies who introduced me to her were certainly kind enough, if you get my drift."

He paused, considering the theme parks. "I admit I'm curious about how immersive Disney is supposed to be: I hear it blows stuff like Six Flags out of the water in that regard. But I'm more likely to spend a vacation somewhere quiet with a decent bar and good music venues. I'm a sucker for a good beer and a better accoustic guitar."

Hehehe...

Emberto laughed as well. "No less so than Sangria and the señoritas in Barcelona, I'd bet," he said. "But yes, those were certainly some wonderful times. It's too bad that we're too much older and wiser now to repeat them." He gave Martin a bit of a wink there. They were indeed old enough to know better now. But it was still fun to imagine.

He nodded at the vacation idea, smiling a bit. "That sounds lovely too, though only for a day or two to me. After that, I'd likely be looking for something more to do."

"I do like a good Sangria," he concurred. "So you're the active type, then? Hiking and kayaks and mountain bikes, that sort of thing? Or were you thinking more in terms of night life?"

"More nightlife," Emberto said. "Or just things to see and do. I'm a bit too fond of creature comforts to really consider myself an outdoors man, but I also find that too much peace and quiet leaves me rather restless. That's why a life in the city suits me so well; there's always something going on somewhere."

"Makes perfect sense," Martin decided. "I can't say I live at bars and clubs, but invite me to a party or out with a group and I'll gladly spend a night bellied up to a bar or parked in a comfy little booth watching a show. I like the social aspect of it all more than the actual getting plastered."

"As do I these days," Emberto said. "Barcelona not withstanding, I do generally prefer being able to remember if I had a good time, you know? Especially the next day." Hangovers were no fun, even when you were young enough for them not to ruin much more than your day.
