Ariel turned and grinned as Hitomi addressed her. "Okay! Where are you going to sit?" She had never met Hitomi's boyfriend, though she had heard a little about him and she knew he was on the trip. It would be interesting to finally meet him.

Rudeth smirked. "Well, can you blame them? I can just see you spiriting tourists away to your lair and feeding on them, then sending them off in the morning half-dead and much better dressed." Rudeth placed a playful kiss on Aritha's ear.

Hitomi licked her lips and looked around the ferry. She briefly considered sitting by her brother, but she doubted he would be terribly excited about her sitting with him at all, let alone dragging a small army along with her.
She smirked and turned back to Ariel. "How about with Rudeth and Aritha?" she suggested. "They're looking entirely too cozy over there alone."
Hitomi looked off the side of the boat and shielded her eyes from the sun for a moment. She wondered where she'd lost Jaymie at -- he had been right behind her.

"Sure," Ariel grinned, heading over in that direction. She didn't know Aritha very well, but she quite liked Rudeth; he was an all-around good guy as well as an excellent singer. She didn't see him much outside of choir class, though. That was a shame.

Aritha's grin grew wider, and she turned to lean against his chest a little, her face upturned to look at him with that almost predatory look that was being rather spoiled by the wrinkles around her eyes. They made the fact that she was trying not to laugh rather obvious, but she still kissed his cheek playfully.
"You forgot step one," she almost purred.
At this point, she met an obstacle by name of Valérian.

Valérian looked over with a rather disapproving expression. "I think that is quite enough, Miss Kairavi, don't you?" he said coolly.
When the young vampire backed off with a very contrite expression, Valérian shook his head slightly and turned back to watching the water. However, he did keep a close eye on the two next to him.

Jaymie jogged in from the back of the ferry and vaulted a seat to land beside Hitomi.
"Back. Sorry about that; don't ask." He smiled at Hitomi, then noticed Ariel. "G'morning."

Hitomi smirked and glanced back at Jaymie. "Long time no see. Jaymie, this is Ariel Hawk, Professor Hawk's daughter. Ariel, this is Jaymie, my boyfriend."
She linked her arm through his and looked back at her roommate. "This is Jaymie's first semester here. He's a shapeshifter." She beamed.

Ariel smiled and nodded at Jaymie. "Nice to meet you, Jaymie. It's my second semester here, as a student anyway. I've been living here since Dad started working here five... six years ago? Nearly six. What kind of shapeshifter are you?" she asked curiously.

Jaymie ran his hand through his hair, and Alex's little breeze picked the dramatically appropriate moment to blow through it and make it glimmer in the early-morning sun.
"Chosen," he smirked. "I'm a crane. Your dad's the music teacher, right? The one who's getting married to Professor Harrows?"

"That's him," Ariel replied with a grin and a nod, suppressing the urge to squee in excitement at the thought of the wedding; it was getting closer and closer every day.

Jaebi's song had ended by then-- he paused to turn the music down to a far more reasonable level, bid his fellow Ring-Ding-Dong-ers a temporary farewell, and skittered his way over to find Ariel after she had waved at him.
She was with Hitomi and Jaymie. That was cool-- he hadn't spoken with either of them much, but they seemed like cool p-- Oh, he hadn't heard this song in a while, he mused distractedly as a new track started. It was just barely loud enough for him to hear.
Oh yeah. People.
Jaebi smiled and waved to catch Ariel's eye. "Hey guys," he said as he reached the trio. "Can I join you?" He could always go sit with Kemekin and Ellie, but, as he noted by glancing over the heads of the others on the ferry, the two of them had started playing card games. Which got dangerous when it was that particular pair going head to head.
That particular thought made Jaebi smirk.

Ariel grinned as Jaebi finally turned around and acknowledged her, starting to move toward her through the crowd.
"Sure, go ahead," she called out to him. It was kind of a shame that he wasn't dancing anymore; she loved watching him dance, with that odd feline grace of his.

Hitomi grinned and waved at Jaebi, then grabbed her boyfriend by the arm and hauled him back toward her cousin and Aritha.
Hitomi slid into the seat across from Rudeth and pulled Jaymie beside her, tossing her backpack into the floor between them.
She glanced at Aritha and beamed. "Having fun?"

Jaymie sat where Hitomi dragged him.
"Great! Ohmigod, it's going to be adorable." He grinned at Ariel, folding one arm around Hitomi's shoulders and one leg over the other. "And right before prom, too."

Aritha beamed back. "Always. What's the point of life without fun?" She flipped her hair and looked archly at Rudeth, then covered her mouth to stifle her giggles.
Then she turned to Hitomi. "How about you?"

Hitomi laughed. "I've been worse," she admitted. She yawned. "Could have done with a few more hours of sleep, but I can cope." Hitomi leaned against Jaymie, using his chest as a pillow.
"So." Hitomi smirked. "Which one of you wants to help me design my prom dress?"

Jaymie's eyebrows shot up as far as they could go.
"Do... you trust me?" He grinned. "I would love to. Anything you want."

Aritha's eyes immediately lightened and she looked over at Jaymie slyly. "How about we both submit designs and you pick?" she suggested to Hitomi with a grin.
Then she smiled a bit more. "Anonymously, of course. Then there's no favoritism. Sound good?"

Hitomi grinned. "Of course. No favoritism. I'll just pick whichever looks best on me."
Not that Hitomi couldn't pick out Jaymie's handiwork from a mile away -- she wouldn't be fit to call herself his girlfriend if she couldn't recognize his style. Still, it might be fun, and Jaymie did have a very...specific style. If nothing else, it might be nice to try on clothes made by someone other than Jaymie.
She glanced back over at Jaymie. "Sound good to you? I know you're not intimidated by a little competition..." Hitomi gave him a coy smile.

"Pfft. It's prom. I want you to wear whatever looks best on you." He winked.
"If I can't make you something that will knock your socks off, I ought to be ashamed, even if hers is better."

Aritha grinned. "I wouldn't say better, exactly... but we will most definitely come up with different things."
Then she paused and bit her lip. "Oh dear, I'm going to be very busy. I have something for Professor Harrows, my dress, and Hitomi... hm..."
Biting the side of her thumbnail, she narrowed her eyes thoughtfully, using her other hand to mark things as if on an invisible board in front of her. Then she brightened. "I think I can handle all that."
She looked at Rudeth thoughtfully. "Unless you want me to make you something for prom too?"

"I think I have an idea what I'm wearing for prom, provided Professor Smoke will give be access to the costume closet." Rudeth grinned. "Which he most likely will. Besides, I wouldn't want to add anything else to your list. With finals on top of that? You're going to be swamped." He looked sympathetically at Aritha. "Let me know if I can do anything to help you."

Aritha smiled back at him. "At least I don't worry about sleep," she shrugged. "I'm mostly done anyway, actually. With Professor Harrows' dress, at least. And I do have Joelle, Zeph and Jason helping."
She scowled slightly. "When I can get Zeph to focus, anyway. Besides, you have school work too. I'm actually reaching the point where all I need is to get everyone for fittings, and that ought to be fairly easy."
