[Video/Audio/Action]

[ So, the excitement is over for now, and Lucy -wishes- she could say it was a new experience for her, but no. She was in Fayren, having left a quick note for Erza and Natsu (or caught up with one or the other) on her way out of town to pick her way to a spot to train and see where she was compared to where she had been. But first.. ]

Now that that craziness is overwith- [ Seriously, what was that even about. . .? ]

Is anyone out there handy with construction, or remodeling? My friends and I are going to be in need of some help in that field soon. I'll be here in Fayren, doing some training if you need to reach -

[ She is interrupted by the sudden voice of another young woman, that startles her so much she actually drops her video phone so the following only processes through in audio format ]

"Is it punishment time, Princess?"

Virgo! No, cut it out already! I'm not doing that -!

[ The feed ends there aaand it's probably for the best that way. ]

[ That surprised look - priceless. In fact she was already starting to laugh at his reaction when he grabbed her arm out of reflex. She should have backed away the second she pushed him, but lessons learned! ]

EEK!

[ Her free hand flailed, instinctively latching onto Natsu - as if that would prevent the inevitable. That being both wizards falling into the water with a pretty impressive little splash. ]

G'aha! That's cold -!

[ Fortunately there was a warm body she was on top...of... ...um ...]

[Even though he was pushed in, He can't help but laugh once their heads are both above water.]

As if - haha - I was gonna take the fall alone!

Hmph, no fair!

[ As if she meant those words, the way she was giggling. Lucy for a moment, was grateful she didn't wear a lot of clothing to get all clumped, wrinkles and clingy. Instead she grinned at his laughter, splashing at him with a hand, sloshing away a step in the water. ]

I would have gotten away with it if I had moved back a little faster..!

[Natsu laughed with her her slowly moving his arms on the water surface to say afloat. That is until he thrusts both hands upwards to splash Lucy.]

Better luck next time~

[After a round of splashing they are both soaked and Natsu clambers out of the lake.]

[ And another squeal from Lucy when she defended herself from the splash of water. She yields, she yields! ]

Just you watch your back, I'll get even sometime.

[ Mock threatening. But once she was out of the water, she shivered a little at the cold air. Of course by then Virgo had returned with the swimsuits and towels, and ..well we'd say she looked perplexed but it was Virgo. She took one look at Natsu, then Lucy before holding up the towel. Kids. ]

[Haha the dragon triumphs! As expected!]

I guess I'll have to even though you always have my back.

[And he says that honestly with a beaming smile as he shakes the water from his pink locks. He gratefully takes a towel from Virgo when she comes back and proceeds to dry his hair for a bit before remembering that he's a human drier. ]

Hey Lucy come closer for a bit.

[ Rassin frassin dragon gloaters! ]

And I always will.

[ Just as honest, with as much of a beaming smile, though she ack acks when Virgo 'helpfully' starts toweling her hair vigorously. ]

Hm? What's up?

[ She had had every intention to walk over to Natsu, of course. Virgo just gave her a little initiative with a towelsnap that made her jump forward in surprise. ...well you wanted her closer, right? ]

[Natsu blinks at Virgo's rough way of drying Lucy's hair. Okay that's her hair but she couldn't dry Lucy's clothes as well. That was where he came in.]

I wanted to dry you off before you catch a cold or something.

[And right on cue flames erupt from his body turning him into the human drier he usually could be.]

[ It's typical of her spirit to not try to dry Lucy's hair normally. Well, she COULD, but apparently it was more fun this way. ]

Oh..! Good idea.. thanks! [ At least Virgo won't have to go back for a change of dry clothes this way, and Natsu can dry her and warm her up again at the same time. Though she did aside to the spirit after a moment. ]

Water's a bit cold for swimming though, Virgo - sorry you went to so much trouble. [ Going and coming back with a set of swimming attire and everything. ]

[It was more fun yes. Especially now.]

No problem. Don't worry. I won't let the flames get big enough to burn you.

[He looked over to Virgo.]

She can still leave those behind though. It's silly to take them back now that she made the trip. We'll just pack them up when we move into our new place when we get it.

I know you won't. [ Lucy had complete and total faith in his ability to control those flames by now. ]

I trust you.

[ She followed his glance to Virgo, who was busy wishing she had a camera, and possibly devising an evil plan to acquire such a contraption. ]

Yeah, I guess you're right. Let's see them, Virgo?

[ Dutifully, the spirit stepped closer to hold out the two sets of clothing - matching, so they're black with an orange trim and a flame motif on the bottom, with stars printed along the top. She totally planned it. ]

These are really nice..!

"I am pleased you find them satisfactory Princess. And you, Mr. Natsu?"

[ Virgo glanced patiently towards Natsu. ]

[He smiled happily with her trust in him. Nothing better than knowing she could rely on him that much.]

Woah. Those are really nice! Love the detail on the flames!

[She wasn't going to hear any complaints from him. Though the fact that they matched didn't seem to sink in completely. Or maybe he just expected it that way as if it was natural.]

[ Lucy grinned back. She couldn't help it, his smiles were always so infectuous. Holding up the bathing suit against her own body, she whistled lightly. ]

He's right, Virgo, these are really beautiful. Thank you - and thank whoever made these or, wherever it is you got them.

[ Virgo certainly wasn't talking on who was responsible for the outfits, but she did seem pleased by the reactions. The fact that they were his-and-her matching bathing suits had not been lost on Lucy though, as she glanced over at Natsu's suit, then hers. It..was just a coincidence that it was those particular designs, right? Casting a quick look at Natsu, she sternly told her brain to behave itself. Yes, he would look good in it, and yes she could appreciate the sight. There was no harm in that, BUT uh... ]

Think we should head back now?

[This time however she wasn't the only one picturing the other. Natsu on the other hand quickly shook his head to clear it of the image threatening to lodge itself in his mind's eye for the next hours to come. Virgo's choice was having effects to say the least.]

Well I guess we should. Unless you wanna do more training.

[ She totally picked it specifically for that reaction. Orders from Plue, we're sure. ]

Hm... well, do you have something in mind?

[ She glanced towards Virgo, thoughtfully. Might not be training with her whip, but she always did say she needed to train with her spirits just as much. ]

[Undoubtedly. He was such an evil mastermind.]

Well we've had plenty of sparring with your whip. Maybe Virgo is up for teaming up with you against me?

[ The most evil. And cutest. ]

Hmm. What do you say Virgo? [ She grinned. ] Shall we team up against Natsu?

"It would be my pleasure, Princess."

[ She strikes a pose. ]

"The loser must accept punishment."

[ Typical. Lucy palmed her face for a second. And then she stepped away a bit to stand with Virgo. ]

RIGHT. We won't go down so easily Natsu, so prepare yourself! [ Playfully Cocky grin is go! ]

Edited 2014-02-01 21:12 (UTC)

Punishment huh? Fine by me. It's only fair the winner gets something.

[He was completely not helping. Not that he cared as he jumped away from Lucy and ignited his fists taking a battle stance.]

It'd hardly be training if you didn't put up a good fight~

W... What do you mean 'Fine by me'!?

[ Natsu stop encouraging her. ]

"Princess, you should focus or Mr. Natsu will win the battle."

[ Sage advice, Virgo. Sage advice. Lucy didn't want to drop the topic so quickly though. But of course she had to regardless. So when Natsu prepared himself to fight, so did Lucy, getting her somewhat flustered gameface on. Just as long as Virgo didn't say anything else embarrassing! ]

[Natsu just laughs in response to Lucy's flailing. Still he wasn't going to use his full strength. After all if he used lightning flame dragon mode would be a bit overkill. He wanted to enjoy and keep things fair for Lucy. That wasn't to say he was going to let her win]

Here I come~

[And with that he dashes towards her, his posture low giving Lucy a smaller and faster target to hit.]

[ Juuuuuust a little overkill. But this was all for fun, so she was glad he wasn't going all out. Even if she didn't beat him, the training would be good for them both. ]

Get ready, Virgo..!

[ It was going to be tricky since her fighting style was so different from his. He liked to get in up close, while she preferred to keep her distance. As Natsu rushed forward, she hopped backwards, swinging her whip forward. Virgo moved along with Lucy, but rather than use her chains, she gestured with her hands, channeling the earth magic to cause a small one or two small pits to open in the Dragon Slayer's path. ]

[All for fun indeed. Just look at that big eager grin on his lips as he jumps over the first set of pitfalls.]

You're gonna have to do better than that!

[ That grin. Hoboy, it was hard not to get distracted by seeing it, but it was so obvious he was looking forward to it, she couldn't help but smile at it. Laughing as he easily avoided the pitfalls, she nodded once, her grin widening, unable to keep from teasing him. ]

We'll see how cocky you stay, Natsu~!

[ She hopped forward to bring herself a little closer to him, whip snapping outwards at his chest - Virgo on the other hand, was dropping to the ground, pressing her hands to the earth to summon rocks forth to converge on their speedy friend, to try and restrain him. ]

[He wasn't trying to distract her so if she lost her focus then that was all on her as far as he cared.]

Can't wait to see you try then~

[While he didn't get hit by the wip, the dodge took him straight into Virgo's erected barrier of earth.]

[ No distraction yet! So.. so far so good as far as her focus was concerned. But she couldn't help but laugh when he dodged right into the barrier. ]

Oho~ anything to say NOW?

[ She glanced at Virgo with a confident grin. ]

Good job, Virgo! Let's see him try and get out of -that-.
