[honestly, after all of that? sqx just really, really wants to relax. she's changed into dry clothes (though her hair is still damp), but she can't bring herself to just hang around in her room.
the bar is nice enough, she supposes, but it's just so different from home. so - with a "borrowed" jug of rice wine in hand, she heads to the simulation room with the intention of conjuring up the terrace of cascading wine and relaxing there.]
with a pint of ice cream (nat voice) baby sacked in a towel, holding it against his own head? it's fine. but then he's just going to glance over - it seems like he's set the simulation room to a beach at sunset.]
Shi-san...!
No way - ahh, do you want me to head out? You can go ahead and use the room!
Oh... It's Katsurahama Beach! Over in Kochi, Japan - my hometown.
[and he'll just gesture for her to come and sit by him - though he'll pause for a second before actually shrugging off his jacket and then depositing it on the sand!
it's not real, but he still doesn't want her to be uncomfortable]
You doing okay...?
[if she's getting tired of the scenery already after just a few days]
So it was - surprising. And not in a good way, to suddenly start hearing them in the tunnels...! [she takes another swig of wine.] Really, how is anyone supposed to be in the mood to indulge after that?
Heh - nah, I'm mostly okay by now. Was mostly disorienting, but I'm feeling pretty alright!
[HE GETS TIPSY FAST but somehow dodges hangovers. he just gives her a big grin and then gestures out to the ocean waves]
Let's head out! It's great - you feel the water and stuff, but your clothes don't get wet for real or anything! Let the waves carry away your troubles with 'em!
[time to just walk straight out into the ocean, then! she seems completely at ease with the sea, which. is a good thing in that she's comfortable? but also could be pretty bad if this was like, Real Ocean and she could drown.]
