Scenario:Olivia - Vacation Preparation

Vacation Preparation

The crew decides to head to Auguste to soak up some sun, but Olivia isn't keen on wearing a swimsuit. After some gentle prodding from Lyria, Vyrn, and (Captain), she relents and agrees to wear one. Afterwards, everyone heads to the beach, ready for all the summer fun they can handle.

---

Summer, the perfect season for vacation, is quickly approaching, and the Grandcypher is rife with anticipation for the warmest month.

Vyrn: Heh-heh-heh! Summer means we get to hit the beach! Auguste, here we come!

Lyria: Yes, I can't wait! We're going to have so much fun and eat all the delicious food!

Vyrn: Haha. Leave it to Lyria to focus on grub.

Lyria: It's because there's so many good foods in Auguste...

Vyrn: Just teasing. I can't wait to snag a bite or twelve myself! Man, just thinkin' about the crystal blue ocean's got me excited!

Lyria: Oh! Speaking of swimming, Olivia, do you have a swimsuit?

Olivia: A swimsuit? I presume this is a form of equipment one wears in order to swim?

Vyrn: Equipment? Uh, it's not like heavy armor or anything.

Vyrn: But, yeah, you wear it so you can be comfortable in the water.

Olivia: I don't have one, nor do I require one.

Lyria: Huh? Why is that?

Olivia: As a member of this crew, I will of course accompany you to Auguste—if only as an escort for you, Lyria.

Olivia: However, I do not plan on entering the sea.

Vyrn: Whoa, really?

Olivia: Yes. So you can see why I don't need a swimsuit.

Lyria: That's just silly!

Olivia: Why do you seem upset all of a sudden, Lyria?

Lyria: Um, sure, people usually wear swimsuits when they go in the water, but that's not all there is to them.

Lyria: I guess it just feels like wearing one puts you in a vacation mood.

Lyria: It's kind of hard to explain, but I want you to have a real summer vacation experience, Olivia!

Olivia: You act as if summer is... special?

Lyria: It is! And that special feeling starts when you put on your swimsuit!

Olivia: Fine. I can see this is a matter you care deeply about, so I too will don your water wear.

Olivia: (I still don't think it's necessary, but if she's satisfied...)

Olivia: (Declining even simple requests could begin to unravel the fragile relationship I've built with the crew.)

Olivia: (And if the children of man hold this summer vacation concept in such esteem, it might be fruitful to understand it.)

(Captain), Lyria, and Vyrn accompany Olivia to pick up a swimsuit.

Lyria: Olivia, do you like this one? Oh, but this one's cute too!

Store Assistant: Yes, and I believe this one would really suit you!

Olivia: Let me see...

Olivia grabs one of the swimsuits and cocks her head to the side as she studies the fabric.

Olivia: It seems quite water resistant—perfect for swimming. Does it not lack in coverage though?

Lyria: Um... What do you mean by coverage?

Olivia: There are many terrors that call the ocean home. Not to mention the waves, which could cause injury if they throw you against the cliffs.

Olivia: I've always thought the bodies of you children of man to be quite fragile. Is this truly enough protection for you to enter the perilous sea?

Vyrn: Ummm... I guess I see where you're comin' from...

Vyrn: But it's not like swimmin' and skyfarin' are the same thing. We don't go into the water to do anything dangerous.

Lyria: That's right! It's vacation!

Vyrn: Yup! It's all about having fun!

Olivia: So... you're suggesting putting on a swimsuit is somehow related to enjoying yourself?

Lyria: Well, it's a nice change of pace being in a different place wearing a different outfit.

Lyria: And if that outfit makes you feel cute, then you'll have even more fun!

Olivia: I... see...

Olivia: (I myself have no need for fun.)

Olivia: (And it's hard for me to comprehend the connection between one's emotions and one's clothing.)

Olivia: (But then again...)

Olivia: I don't really understand the idea yet, but I'll take your advice.

Olivia: After all, you three are well-versed in the art of vacation.

Olivia: (I might as well play along for now.)

Olivia: (Refusing to wear a swimsuit would likely draw attention to me after we arrive in Auguste. Not ideal.)

Lyria: Yay! Look at the ocean!

Vyrn: Haha! It's so bright!

Having finally reached Auguste, each member of the crew splits off, ready to dive into all that the beach has to offer.

Olivia: ...

Lyria: Haha! Let's make this the best vacation ever!

Olivia: Yes, let's.

Olivia: (This has brought me no closer to understanding the ways of mortals, but staying close by seems like it would be fruitful nonetheless.)

Underneath the blazing summer sun, Olivia resolves to learn more about the lives of her companions.
