The sun is shining and the weather is nice and toasty. Overly toasty one might argue, even. It's a great day to be laying around at the beach, so it's a good thing that that's where you've found yourself today, whether you'd made plans to be there or not. Bathing suit and sunscreen ready, you're going to get your tanning time on.

But with heat comes the expected side effects for a place like Proxima Gamma. While the cool water can sometimes slow the effects, the heated beaches and freshly popped flowers seem to have made getting close to someone else just seem like a really great idea. You can try to fight off the side effects much as you want, but the scientists like to believe everyone has a breaking point.

[ He's been running around so much it's a wonder he hasn't actually exhausted himself from all the excitement. Or gotten sick from eating all that ice cream, which he sadly has none of when he takes a seat next to Nana. Zack catches the tail-end of her question, rubbing at the back of his beck as he thinks about it and squints up at the sky. It's so blue, so clear. He wonders... ]

It's nicer than some I've seen before, that's for sure. Heh... [ Zack gives her a grin. ] Is this your first time?

[ At the beach obviously. Not — well!!! You know. ]

Y-yes!! It is. Where I'm from there aren't a lot of opportunities to see things like this but I've read about them in books!

[She read a lot of things in books. Sadly her world was similar to this one, though it didn't give her the amount of freedom she has right now. She isn't sure what to do about that or how to feel about it.]

It's very different here, than what I'm used to.

[She should feel nervous, wearing nothing but a bathing suit which showed more skin than she was comfortable showing, but it was warm out and the sun was certainly nice on her skin.]

What are they like where you're from?
