the beach episode (dated before the east mission)
There's a small slice of sandy beach between mountains and wasteland, where the South meets Central, only an inlet of ocean between them, and that is where Bruno has decided to set up camp.
Literally.
He only had a simple tent and supplies for two initially. Tatara had asked if he could join him on his little trip out and how could he say no? Unfortunately for him, Tatara may have decided to invite everyone else, too, so, welcome, everyone, to the beach episode and a chance to relax after a potentially rough week in the City of Rain.
The sand is warm and fine, the water isn't too chilly, and scrubby little palm trees and plant life dot the dunes. Sea birds are the most active wildlife out here, not counting whatever fish can be found dwelling in the depths of the inlet between South and Central or further out into the ocean. It's comfortable enough... unless you hate sand, that is! You don't hate sand, right?
Since Tatara's arrival, more than Bruno's humble setup can be found.
And, of course, anything the other wizards have decided to bring! Bruno wasn't expecting a party but now that it's here, he sure can't tell them not to have fun however they want.

- There's food fit for a picnic and enough bottles of wine for the evening.
- In the evening, a (non-deadly) bonfire will be built and there'll be pillows to sit on for those who don't want to sit directly on the sand.
- A few colorful rough wool blankets laid out under umbrellas meant to provide shade.
- There's still only one sad-looking tent... However! Bruno's gone ahead and enchanted it so that, when one pushes the cloth flap aside and enters, they'll find a much more comfortable setup inside.
And, of course, anything the other wizards have decided to bring! Bruno wasn't expecting a party but now that it's here, he sure can't tell them not to have fun however they want.

[ He knows this one. That's fine, right? ]

[ This is also an area still beyond his general expertise. But, anyway, as he happens to look from him to back what he constructed, he supposes that the night is still young.
Though he doesn't have anymore else to speak upon the matter. ]
...Ah, by the way, I didn't distract you too much from what you were looking for, did I?
no subject
[ Bruno looks away from the toucan, glancing down the beach one way, and then the other. Following that, he'll dismiss the bird made of light and return his focus to a pocket. ]
Not really? I think this is the right kind of place. I think the sand part is the most important. Maybe the night part, too?

[ Jing Yuan hadn't wanted to cause any troubles in his search, but it looks like he already found what he's looking for. ]
...Because it's more quiet at night?

Maybe? Either that or... or how stars are connected to prophecy more often than not. I don't use them to tell the future but they fit into the theme.

[ Especially if it might even be both. That should make it doubly effective, eh? ]
That being said, I suppose I should eventually leave you to it.
It seems you're getting good use out of the place already, however. That too seems to be another sign it is suitable for you, so here is to you getting continuously the most out of it, and a good-night, Bruno.
[ He will wait for the other to give his own good-byes, and then eventually pivot on his foot to begin to leave. ]

[ Don't have to go. Bruno never even got a chance to ask if Jing Yuan has found his mana area yet. Or rather, he had plenty of chances, but. Honestly, he needs to get better at asking people about themselves. Having anyone to talk to at all who isn't fuzzy and doesn't fit into the palm of his hand is forever such a new concept. ]
R-right. Goodnight, Jing.
[ ...can he call him Jing? He sure hopes so but he worries inwardly regardless. ]
