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.

I was gonna say I wish I could bring over some of the books I got back home, but looks like you don't need my help.
no subject
[The NOT bringing books from home, that is. Does he look like he even wants to read the ones here??]
A-anyway, I might end up passing them up as it is, as they aren't of any value to my research...
no subject
[ Surprise Phil, he was actually serious about wanting to share some books from the library back home, even if he was also using it to bully you. ]
What are you reaearchin', anyway?
no subject
[Neeeerrrrrd.]

no subject
[Phil actually has to stop and consider this for a moment because does he actually know how to have fun? No, not exactly.]
... yes, I suppose I have, thanks in no small part to you. I'm truly grateful.
[Friend? He has one whole real friend?]
no subject
[ Day doesn't see how he's helped Phil have fun, since he was commenting on Phil being a nerd. And, well, Day has known since he was a child that he made for a poor student. ]
I... You're welcome.
no subject
... but now he's suddenly a little self-conscious given Day's reaction, so don't mind him just sort of looking away and trying to pretend that he isn't blushing.
They're doing amazing.]
no subject
I mean...I'm really flattered. Guess I just wasn't expectin' to hear it.
no subject
[Tentatively, testing the waters, because suddenly he's afraid he's overstepped his bounds...]

[ ... ]
It makes me pretty happy.
[ And it's not like this is the first or only or even last time someone has fun with him here, but it seems especially meaningful with someone like Phil. ]
