OTA - Beaches near Heropa
[Looking for a break from the chilly temperatures of Maurtia Falls, Inanna's come down to Florida for a relaxing visit; not too far from Heropa. They won't be staying for long, but someone lucky enough could spot them out on the beach. It may still be too cold to go swimming, but it's just pleasant enough to lay back and soak up the warm sun. Even better is when the sun begins to set over the horizon, lighting the ocean up with rich orange and pink tones while the first pinpricks of stars begin to take their place in the sky.]


Semi-open - Heropa - The Lucky Cat Cafe
[And as long as Inanna's in the area, they may as well stop by a local business for a bite to eat. And maybe they have a little business to attend to with some of the staff here that they've been putting off. That doesn't mean they're entirely preoccupied with whatever that business is, of course. In fact, if they spot anyone lingering too long on the menu they'll take the chance to try to strike up a conversation.]

You should try the macarons. The vanilla lavender is amazing.

[And then there's the actual reason they're here—the Vorkosigans. Inanna made sure to send a text ahead to Cordelia to make sure she'd know when they were planning to stop by, but that doesn't guarantee that other members of the family won't find them first.]

[[OOC: If you want to use this for the Valentine's event just note it in your top level. I am 100% happy to roll with anything, but Inanna specifically won't be affected. Likewise if you want a specific thread that doesn't fit the open prompts you can hit me up at jiora for a top level or just comment with a starter of your own. ♥]]

Lucky Cat Cafe

[apotheoppose]

[Tara's in Heropa running errands for work, but she has time for a quick meal, and she's been recommended the Lucky Cat more than once. After the hassle at the Porter over her being Unsettled, she figures she might as well take the opportunity to give it a try -- she hasn't any idea when's the next time she'll be back in this city.

When walks in the cafe, she's clearly in in cognito mode: something hides the blue mark on her face, so aside from her style, height, and looks, she looks more or less...normal. Her outfit is stylish but casual, a look that wouldn't have been out of place on a London street.

She turns when she hears Inanna's recommendation, relief and happiness breaking across her face at their familiar voice.]

Inanna! What are you doing here?

[purple_reign]

Oh, Tara! [That happiness is mirrored in Inanna's own tone. They hadn't expected to run into anyone they knew down here, so this is a pleasant surprise.] I felt like getting a dose of warm weather for a day, so I was in the area and decided to stop here for some lunch.

[Tara had figured the search for Inanna had resolved peacefully, given the lack of Luci and/or Persephone tearing up the rest of the imPort cities, but it's still wonderful to be able to confirm it in person.]

I'm so glad I caught you, then.

[She quickly places her order and heads over to Inanna's table.]

[Inanna shifts their plate and drink to make room for her at the table.]

I'm glad you did too. Have you been able to settle in well?
