008 ✽ It's betta down where it's wetter
Who: Flowers Over Bones and those in attendance
What: One last solo band performance before the big tour, at the world's largest aquarium. Of course, being a giant aquarium, there's plenty of other things to do too.
When: Backdated to early April
Where: The Vista City Aquarium
Warnings: None planned, but note- this is set before Flowers Over Bones (Luce, Doctor, Rei, Ivan, Pao-Lin) escape out of Virgo's grip. If you want to talk with any of them one last time, now is the chance to do so. Also doubles as a mingle log!
As befitting such an enormous and thriving city, Vista houses the largest aquarium on the entire Americana west coast. Vista City Aquarium takes up the entirety of a multi-floor building, sprawling over a sizeable bit of land in the crowded city and providing nothing but top of the line care for its many aquatic and amphibious inhabitants. Needless to say, the gift shop is an entire floor all its own.
Such a place is obviously a popular place in the city for those interested in aquatic life, but today is special. The Annual Charity Run is taking place to usher in spring, just like every other year, and, to help this goal, they've enlisted the help of Virgo's own Flowers Over Bones. On one of the only levels not for the housing of aquatic life, a stage area has been set up for the band. All proceeds to see them, of course, go straight to the Aquarium.
That isn't to say people are obligated to go to the concert. It's an optional event of the day. There's still an entire building full of water and creatures to explore, an endeavor which can take up an entire day if one is so willing. Notable attractions include:
- A glass tunnel that goes through an entire tank of Caribbean sea life
- A room filled with screens livestreaming the events of oceanic researchers watching over the dolphins and whales the aquarium doesn't house
- A shallow tank where you can pet more docile small sharks and rays
- An area where you can play chess electronically with one out of a pair of octopi, Celia or Pat. Human winners are rewarded a voucher for food down in the food court. Celia and Pat get pieces of crab. Celia and Pat also have a high win rate.
- The food court and gift shop floor, where you can buy refreshments for the day or whatever gift shop knicknacks your heart desires. Not only are there the typical things such as clothing emblazoned with the aquarium's logo, keychains, and lovely coral or shark teeth jewelry.... But there are also plushies larger than most people. There's seemingly one for just about every kind of animal. Yes, even the blobfish.

They're adapting to the new times, yeah. Size isn't as much of an advantage nowadays. But everything that makes them what they are stays the same. Like that skin made of teeth. [ He grins a bit at that. ]
no subject
You’re a fan, clearly. Idle curiosity or something from your past, Squalo?
[She figures you’re like her, with weird memory problems…but she’s not going to pry behond that.]
no subject
[ But it's not a lie even here. He decides to start with the obvious, giving her a half-smirk. ]
"Squalo" is "shark" in Italian.
no subject
I guess it's appropriate, then.
[Bad dreams huh? She can relate...though her dreams are of fire and war...]
no subject
[ He snorts and looks back at the sharks. ]
[ See, the difference here is that he doesn't really think of them as bad dreams. He always feels excited in them, whenever he smells the blood or runs someone through with a sword. ]
I guess we have some similarities. Dunno, I liked them for as long as I can remember.
no subject
Same. Though, I've always been a bit more partial to animals on land...but sharks have always been interesting to me.
no subject
To each their own. [ A smirk. ] At least you've got taste.
no subject
[You know, you came to see her play.]
fin or do something else?
[ It's nice that they're both modest. ]
[ He might even invite her to the petting tank with him. Or, you know, let her be on her way, whichever. ]
I'm about to hiatus for a few weeks so...fin!
