Theater

It's an open rehearsal for Cinderella, with Katarina in the title role. The performance is over the weekend, and she's pretty much got it down, practicing a dance with a broomstick when the music she's playing suddenly gives out.

"Huh? That's weird. I thought I charged this."

Looking out to anyone watching, she insists, "Don't worry, this won't happen in the real thing!"


Leviathan Habitat

With an exhausting practice and music player issues to worry about, Katarina's relieved to finally get out and walk around for a bit. And the aquarium is as good a place as any to relax.

She plays with the cuttlefish for a bit before making her way outside to the coast, walking carefully and sighing when she has to keep her distance.

"I wish I could get a little closer, but I can't risk twisting my ankle right now."

There's only one reason "Ciro Bonavida" is at the aquarium today, and that's to get some paperwork figured out for advertisement matters. Somewhere as popular as the Aquarium would be useful for his own cafe...

So, needless to say, he doesn't really plan on being sidetracked. Yet when his phone goes off with a reminder and he sees the faint flickering of a symbol above someone's head.... He heaves out a quiet and reluctant sigh. On one hand, it's good that someone else is available to Awaken. On the other hand, couldn't it have happened to someone that wasn't him?

Still, carefully putting papers into his bag, he trails after her when she goes outside, and is just near enough to hear her words. "Why?" is the simple blunt question that comes out.

Ran's found herself at the aquarium today, driven there for a little peace. Unfortunately her "parents" are both at home, which means sniping and cold silences and enough tension to stir with a stick -- tension that Ran absorbs and which eats into her bones. She was driven out, and barely even noticed where her steps were taking her until she found herself paying for her ticket.

The fish are peaceful, and the swirl of color reminds her of other, better times -- of a life that was a little more simple. She drifts between the displays, fingers periodically brushing the glass, watching the ripples of the kelp and the colorful fish braid in and out of the strands.

She steps out onto the coast, soothed, for a bit of fresh air, and catches sight of Katarina. The sight of the woman pierces through the fog as memory and recognition snap into place. "Ah--!"

Unlike Katarina and the others on stage, Tristan is just there to watch. He had an upcoming performance, too, but their rehearsal was earlier and now finished.

He smiles a bit wryly when the incident with the music happens. "Something like that always happens in rehearsals."
