WHO: Steve and You?
WHERE: Agrii ship in the water area
WHAT: A pool party!!
WHEN: Around debates time
WARNINGS: Not sure, will edit!

Steve has been trying to get in touch with the Agrii for days now without any luck. So far it's mostly just been hanging out by the water. And a few of them can really hold their breath a long time, it seems. They seem uneasy if he swims too far, so he sticks by the shallower bit of the pool for now.

If nothing else, the lush greenery is a nice change of scenery, and some days there's all this bountiful delicious food, such that he hasn't had better since before arriving here.

So, one day, after fruitlessly searching around by himself and not finding any better leads, he invites a few fellow He-Rows over for what appears to be a pool party. It's open to anyone who happens to make it through the thick botany, and he's definitely trying to encourage the younger Agrii to come play with them. Food and drink are just from the mess hall, and the games are simple ones like a hand-drawn deck of cards, and sitting on each other's shoulders trying to knock off your opponent.

If anyone wants to play that game with him, he'd definitely make a better root than pusher - don't worry, he'll be sure to keep his balance, so long as your character wants to keep playing.

Partway through he gets tasked with going back to get more ice or snacks or something, so feel free to bump into him then or in his yellow speedo (that he most definitely did not pick out himself) and towel, gathering supplies. You'll definitely score an invitation if you ask.

Then, when the 'party' starts winding down, Steve's maybe a little disappointed in not having made much progress, though he's sure a few of the younger Agrii might be coming around to them, so it's not entirely a fruitless endeavor. But he's gotten his hands on a piece of paper and graphite, and he might even ask your character to stand still for a second, as they look really nice under this foliage, and it'll just take a few minutes, if they don't mind.

[ OoC: Feel free to respond to any of the things Steve is doing or throw up your own toplevel so other people can tag you at the 'party'! ]

I. The Doctor Is In

Dr. Takemi had expected to return to the Agrii ship and check on her burn patients. But of course the Agrii that had been hurt are nowhere to be found if they weren't young. So what is a doctor to do?

Clearly put on the bikini that Janet Van Dyne helped her pick out on the spacedock, throw her doctor's coat on over it, and headed off to the gathering she's heard about. Does she want to actually swim in the water? No. Does she want to sit on the beach, look pretty, and watch the show of people splashing around, with her doctor's bag next to her in case someone gets hurt?

Yes. Don't ask why. This is what she does with her life. At least she's pretty while doing it, right? Or she thinks that's the positive here.

II. A Soft Heart In A Hard Exterior

Those who have crossed Tae Takemi might have learned a few things about her. Her tongue was sharp, her patience could be short, and she was a woman that was hard as steel when she wanted to be. Then, of course...

There were the youngest of the Agrii. Those that came to her to reveal some of their healing injuries. Her smile are gentle, her attention doting, her whole self softer with the these young ones.

And when she catches someone observing it, well, they will get a sharper, colder look, as if challenging them to dare to think she's got a gentle heart. Say it. Definitely say it.
