[ WOW IT'S THE BEACH. yves is loving it here! he's rolled up the cuffs of his pants and pushed up his sleeves, abandoning his coat to just welcome the sweet spray of the ocean. he inhales the next sea breeze that comes, and hums softly to himself as he exhales. looking out at the big ocean, he talks to himself - or to someone not quite here ]
It's almost like home... I hope you're not too mad at me for going ahead, Hugo.
[ though when he notices someone approaching, he'll turn and offer up a grin ]
Oh hey! How're you doing, Charlie?
[ aaand his arms are opening for a hug like when you are greeting a good friend okay hi there ]
Maybe you heard about it from Adolphe and Lucas already but... Arpéchéle is my homeland. It's an island that was said to be beloved by Death, and we had a curse where everyone died by the age of 23.
Even so... the people are kind. Everyone was trying their best to make the most of the limited time they had. Maybe that led to difficulties... but I don't want to curse the place that I was born and lived in all my life.

Yves!
[ she would never leave a friend hanging even if it wasn't affection week, so she is going in for the hug ]
I'm good--- I love this beach! It's so much nicer than the beaches in Hell! [ no shit ] How are you?
[ and who is hugo? ]
no subject
I'm good! A little nostalgic... We had a beach back in my island, too. So I guess I just started thinking about people and places left behind.
no subject
Oh, I see.... I can understand that. [ though hell's beaches are nowhere that nice ]
You must miss them.
no subject
Of course.
You miss where you're from too, right?
no subject
More than anything.
[ she will sing about it don't think she won't ]
no subject
Do you want to talk about it? Just to share the memory with someone else.
[ go sing your heart out girl ]
no subject
Is that okay with you?
[ taking his hands to swing them gently ]
no subject
Sure, I don't mind... How about we trade? I can go first, if you'd prefer.

[ she frowns ] 23 is so young for humans... that's absolutely horrible, Yves.
[ he is close to 23? he must be. yikes ]
... I know what you mean. My home has problems too, but it's still my home, and I love it.
pummels u with my lil fists
It's all I've ever known. But... that's what I've heard. So, thank you for your kindness, Charlie.
[ it is what it is.... ]
I'm sorry to hear that your home has its own share of troubles but... I know they're lucky to have you.
♥♥♥
[ she will reach out for his hands, to give them a little squeeze, if he allows it. fix it in this timeline already, scien, tch. ]
Oh. Well. Thank you for saying that. It's very kind of you.
[ it's clear she doesn't believe it ]
