(Private)Spring Gathers

[Seraphina]

The Nix blinks as she looks at Sonnie, then gently shakes her head with a small smirk.

Sera laughs at the pun, “A great way of looking at it!” had to give him credit, it was a good one. With a nod of her head, “Exactly! I just want that at the end of the day, a place we are all proud of, a place we all helped create.” Who knows, it could bring them together as a Court. “But if there’s anything you need help with Liam, let me know.” She could make things happen.

Eyes sparkling as Titania makes a comment about a hat, “Oh! Yes! Fearless Spring Explores need their hats, good thinking!” it would be a sight to see!

“Well, I can start moving things around in my schedule to free up some time to get things started.”

[Sonnie Wu]

The Beast nodded thoughtfully. "I am always in favor of cool hats. And cute hats. Oh my god! We should go hat shopping!" Hands on Titania's shoulders, she shook the Telluric in sudden excitement!

Her eyes slid towards Seraphina, "So, should I get a shovel and start digging the pool?"

[Liam Gelt]

The mood in the Tavern was quite infectious. Already Liam's mind is rushing from possibility to possibility; task to task. "I'll have to get on that jazz club lead you mentioned, Sera. But other than that, I should have plenty of time to help out."

More out of concern for Sonnie than Titania, the Giant gently steadies the Monkey with his hands before she shakes the Princess beyond her tolerance. "Woah there Sonnie! If we're gonna wear those pretty hats, we'll need our heads on our shoulders. Maybe that can be our next future project: a hat shop". The idea just pops into his mind, but he already starts to wonder if he's given the Monkey too much of a good idea. "I can certainly help with the digging whenever we get to that." ​He'd never helped build a pool before, but it certainly sounded like a fun challenge.

[Titania]

The image of a giant towering over a monkey who's at the same time shaking her shoulders would probably appear hilarious to a casual observer.
Totally unexpected, and indeed, she offers very little resistance to the monkey's furry paws. Of course, before things reach past her level of tolerance, the colossal gentleman goes to the rescue.
"Hmm yes, dreamstuff hats", she lets out between sighs.
Luckily all those shaking didn't pop one out. Now that would have been embarassing.

[Seraphina]

Eyes widen as Sonnie begins to shake Titania. “Easy there Sonnie!” laughing, “You can’t go hat shopping with her if you shake her head off!” clearly joking, cause that wasn’t going to happen.

“Did we want to start with the pool then?” she asks, “If so, I think an indoor one would be the best thing. A little bit safer, and we can get beautiful windows on the ceiling to allow in the sun and moonlight!” oh it would be magical. “But first thing should be pushing our borders out, claiming more of the space around the Tavern as ours. Then building from there.” Seemed the logical way.

A smile to Liam, “I think you’ll like the club. The owner is really great, and if he needs to call me, just tell him to.” But she didn’t think it would be a problem.

“Sounds like we have a plan!” finally! The Season coming together! Pouring some more tea, and offering to refill others cups, “That’s all I had. Anything thing else we should worry about?” leaving the floor open if anyone had anything else.

One day left, seems a good place to start wrapping

[Sonnie Wu]

Between Liam's intervention and Sera's warning, Sonnie's shaking of Titania stopped. She blinked, then laughed out loud. "Good point! Hats require heads! This is a fundamental fact!" She nodded vigorously, her energy not dissipated.

"If we get the pool done soon enough, it can be done before summer is over!" The Monkey thought a moment, "Though, this is California, so we could still be swimming in autumn... or even winter!"

[Liam Gelt]

The Giant nods in assent to Sera's suggestion. "Sounds like we got ourselves a mini-resort on our hands." How many Taverns could say they had a swimming pool and possibly a library? "Clearing the Hedge it is!"

He chuckles at Sonnie's excitement. "A chance for Spring to be in service year-round? Why not?" He could already imagine the lively bustle that would ensue. Drinks by the pool, sun or moonlight streaming through clear windows like a transparent sky. Fellow Lost lounging in deck chairs or splashing at each other. Maybe even fancy music playing? Lots of chances to get to know people.

Liam stands a bit taller, a bit prouder than he had when he came in. He feels excitement for the oncoming storm of activity, the doing of things with friends. The Spring in him couldn't wait.

[Titania]

The Hedge didn't really have daylight cycles, the light - if they could consider it as such - was artificial. Though there wasn't something she couldn't provide.
"The Benefit of my wisps is that you're unlikely to get a sunburn. A tan... yes. But no dangerous Ultraviolet lights", nevertheless the general lack of defensive structures also bothered her. They weren't warriors.
"Though, we should also shore up our defenses. Remember those masked thugs that drove us off in the Hedge? As it turns out, Circe unwisely ended up sharing information with them. They want to fight HIM, and I expect a lot more briar wolves coming our way from that", she frowns,
"Maybe work on a double layer of thorns?"

[Seraphina]

Another chuckle to herself as Sonnie pieces the parts together.

“If we go forward with the pool, we can swim and host parties year-round. Essentially becoming the go to place for Freehold gatherings.” After all, they were Spring.

Then a happy nod to Liam, “Always good to have reminders for others that we are here year-round.” A wink added at the end.

Titania’s wisps could provide a tan?! That was news. But it would explain why she was always gorgeous and so vibrant.

But what she said next made the Nix pause, “She did? I’d be curious as to what information she shared. And yes,” an eager nod, “shoring up our defenses should take priority. I add some to the Wards, but adding more, and as you say, perhaps some thorns, could prove quite beneficial to us. Thank you for mentioning that.” No reason they couldn’t do all the improvements they wanted, but security was first and foremost. “Is that something you would be able to help with? I can certainly take some time and work on it, but the more we have the better.”

Seems a good place to close, maybe another meeting soon to finalize plans? Or we can discuss them in the Spring Group
