Party at The Rozalin Famiy Estate.

Destin checked over the spread of food to see if he could see where they had eaten from. It was possible they refilled it after they took their portions as he didn't see where they could have taken a bite from. It was then that Joseph came back, looking athletic, and in his swim trunks. Destin was still in his street clothes, his trunks and towel propped against the wall, but he didn't raise any objections and followed the others out just the same. He would let them get settled in and then head back to change.

He noticed a bunch of people already in the pool when they went out of the house. "Oh hey, didn't know that the party was more than just us. That's cool," he said, trying not to sound surprised of the development. It wasn't as if he really cared one way or another whether there were other people at the party besides the five of them, but it would limit their free reign of the area, and what they could get away with.

His thoughts were interrupted by being handed sun screen. "Huh? What? Oh sure, no problem," he said as he squirted some lotion on his open palm as the girls settled down. He knelt down between Taja and Bianca, leaving Birdy all to Joseph. Destin's hands were warm to the touch, and slippery from the oil, with some small rough callouses from lifting weights. He alternated between Taja and Bianca, starting with their arms and moving down to their shoulders and neck. Moving down from there to their backs. And then to their waist above the hemline of their bikinis. Finally finishing with their legs. As one section was done he would switch to the other girl to complete the same corresponding section from the other girl. Needless to say, this took longer than someone just doing one person, leaving Joseph extra time to be with Birdy.

"You girls have good skin," Destin complimented as he went. "But who are the other people here? That your mom and dad?" he asked.

Bianca giggled. "No our parents were inside entertaining the other guest. The estate is large, so lots of people usually get invited to these parties. If y'all stick around, it'll probably get even busier later on."

"Yea I noticed there were a few groups of people in the kitchen area, but it wasn't that many I didn't think." Joseph said, as he rubbed the oil into Birdy's back. He massaged it into her shoulders, then delicately rubbed his hands downwards towards her waist. The sunlight beamed down on the girls, and reflected off their freshly oiled bodies.

"That feels nice." She said quietly, "Don't forget my legs now."

He did as she asked, and continued to spread the oil up and down the back of her thighs, all with a red tint on his face. He glanced over at Destin to see how he was staying cool in the presence of the pretty ladies. He thought to himself, "I'm glad he came, he's pretty cool."

At that moment, a voice rang out from the house. It seemed to be a calling for the children that had been playing in the front of the pool, because they gathered their things, and ran off back to the building in speedy fashion. The older couple in the deep end of the pool were locked into each other's focus, and didn't seem worried about anything else going on around them.

"So Destin, what kind of things do you do for fun?" Taja questioned, turning her head to glance at him while he rubbed her back.

"Taja, let the man go get changed first." Bianca smiled. "Do you have your things? There's a small bath house right there." She pointed to a small building off to the side by itself a few feet away from the pool. "If so, go change, we can hop in the jacuzzi when you get back."

Destin noted Bianca's double entendre regarding 'it'll probably get even busier later', but didn't say anything in response beyond a smirk. He then got down to work on massaging the oil into the girls' bodies besides Joseph. He wasn't a ton older than the girls, less than a decade, but his physical interest in the younger women wasn't much on display here. Even though he only met them less than an hour ago, he seemed to attack the problem in a way that it seemed natural. Just doing a job for a friend.

"I don't do a whole lot for fun, my life is fairly boring." Destin commented as he went, trying to answer Taja's question. "I read a little. I play a few board games and video games with others every once in a while. I watch the occasional show or movie. And every now and then I take a nap. Nothing fancy. How about you guys?" he asked back.

But before anyone could respond, Bianca interrupted them with a question about whether Destin had changed. He shook his head. "Not yet. I left the stuff back in the kitchen. Let me just go find a place to change and I'll be right back," he said as he stood up to go fast-walk into the house again. "Be right back!" he called over his shoulder, leaving Joseph with the three girls. All alone.

~Some time later.~

Destin returned and made a beeline for the jacuzzi. He winced a tiny bit as he slid in, his body not used to the temperature spike right away. "So? What I'd miss?" he asked.


Destin’s return and sudden rush to the heated waters shook everyone away from the conversation they had started earlier. Joseph was in the tub a quick second, followed by the three girls. Birdy slid in to Joseph’s right, while Bianca was on Destin’s left, and Taja to his right. The tub was spacious enough to occupy maybe two-three more people, but for the time beingnit was just the five of them.

“I love hot tubs, they are probably one of my favorite things in the world.” Joseph exclaimed.

“They are nice aren’t they?” Bianca said. “You didn’t really miss much, Joseph told us how you guys became friends. The net sure does bring people together dosen’t it?”

“The three of us surf the Net with our Navis from time to time. We arnt too big on virus busting, but we’ve been known to get busy sometimes.” Taja added, sliding closer to Destin so that their thighs were touching, “He said your Navi is pretty strong, is that true?”

Joseph chimed in with, “Yes it’s true! DragoneirMan is awesome. The strongest Navi I’ve ever seen.”

“What about your?” Birdy asked.

“Sparks, he’s my best friend. We’ve got a long ways to go, but together we are a great team.”
Destin leaned back on the seat and sunk a little into the hot waters until his chest was half-submerged. "Hmm, is that right?" Destin commented. "Well, I wouldn't say DragonierMan is the strongest navi I have ever seen, but I would definitely put him up there," he continued. "Though I will say that Joseph's Sparks has come a long way. It won't be long before that navi is in the same league as the best of the best."

He rose a little bit back out of the water slightly to adjust himself. "If you guys are surfing from time to time in a semi-non-combative style, perhaps you three might be interested in joining the Neo-Shogunate organization that we both joined. They have been recruiting for all sorts of combat and non-combat roles."

He raised his right hand half-out of the water, palm facing out, and sweeped it, causing a small wave and ripples to follow. "That way we can easily keep in touch. Maybe go on missions together. C'mon, it will be fun!" he propositioned. "What do you think?"

Both Bianca, and Taja were as close to Destin as they could be, without basically being completely on top of him. “Maybe we could take you up on that one day, as long as you promise your DragonierMan will protect our navis.” Taja responded to Destin’s invite to join the NeoShogunate.

“Sparks recently enlisted himself, and we’ve made a bunch of cool friends already.” Joseph added. The waters warmth was beginning to make him sweat, but he refused to get out. He was enjoying meeting Destin, and hanging out with the pretty young women.

“What kind of missions have y’all went on?” Birdy seemed genuinely interested to hear more about the NS experience.

“We’ve fought viruses together, and even saved a giant ninja Navi from being stuck in a dam! Some nasty looking pirates showed up, and we decided to get out of there though.” Joseph explained.
Destin reached behind him and grabbed his own towel, wiped the sweat from his brow, and then placed it back where he got it. "Yeah, sure, no problem. He's had plenty of practice protecting other Navis before. It shouldn't be a problem. You'll have nothing to worry about with him watching your back," he rambled a bit as he was squeezed in on both sides by beautiful women. Stay calm, man. Play it cool, he told himself.

"M-Missions? Man, there have been so many. I don't know where to start," he began to explain, before there was a chime behind him on his PET, next to the towel. "Hmm... I wonder what that could be?" he questioned before a tiny holographic figure flickered into life above the screen. It was DragonierMan in all his armored glory.

The knightly Navi placed one hand on his chest and bowed his head. "My Lord we have completed our mission successfully and have returned to the Tower. Lyntael, the Navi we assisted during the mission, was accepted into the Neo-Shogunate. Her diplomatic skills will make a fine addition to the non-combatants within the NS. Nightshade and Yumi have also returned, and Suzume and Aya are entertaining the three of them right now. They will handle escorting them back to their homes afterwards."

Drago then raised his head and took a look around, identifying three unknown women, two of which were snuggled against Destin. "Oh? It appears as if I am interrupting something." But then his eyes came upon one familiar man. "Oh Lord Joseph, it does me good to see you. How is Sir. Sparks? We haven't heard from you both in some time. Please inform him that we have recruited another member to the NS by the name of Lyntael. She is a young woman with blonde hair, green eyes, and wears a yellow vest and skirt. You can't miss her."

Destin had rotated around so his knees were proping him up on the bench, so he could look at Drago. "You have good timing. They were just asking about our missions. Perhaps you could regail them with a story about your most recent mission." Drago hesitated for a moment, his eyes looking down in thought. "I'm sorry My Lord, but it is still a little too early to recount what happened. Some of the things we do for the NS would be what you would call 'classified intelligence gathering' and would cause problems if they got out too early." He looked up after and squared his shoulders. "But if they have questions on other topics, other less-classified topics, than I would be willing to answer their questions."

“Ohhhh, why you so secretive.” Taja picked at him. “We won’t tell anybody Mr. DragonMan.”

“Uhhh I think he said his name was DragoneirMan Taja, don’t be rude.” Birdy snapped.

“We’re both doing well. Sparks, and Lucky seem to have stumbled into a wild situation. They are battling a giant dragon in Sharo Rouge Net.” Joseph explained while he slotted in a chip, before turning the device around so the rest of the group could see what was happening on the screen.

“Yea, my Navi wouldn’t stand a chance against that thing.” Bianca added, “But it looks like your Navi is facing it head on.”

“That’s the only way to do it in my opinion. Virus busting, and Net Battling are so fun, it’s all about finding, and overcoming new challenges.”
DragonierMan snorted, a little holographic steam coming out of his dragon skull-like helmet. "Sparks has been trained up to be a proficient battler, if I may say so," he said with a little pride at his own mentoring. "Courage and skill should see him through against this threat, as so many before. I will stay to watch my comrade conquer yet another foe." Drago crossed his arms and watched the screen from across the hot tub.

Destin rotated back to his sitting position in the hot tub. "So tell me about your guys' Navis. What kind of things do you do with them?" he asked Birdy, Taja, and Bianca. "Maybe we can hang out later this week and you can show me around to all your haunts. Either on the Net or in the city."

Joseph attempted to position the PET on the far edge of the tub so that everyone could get a good look at the screen if they chose to watch. His folder was carefully laid out right beside the device. He then placed himself off to the right just enough to still see the screen, and still be able to slot in chips when necessary. “Ah don’t let this battle take your attention off what’s important. I wanna get to know the ladies” He said this kind of half heartedly, because his adrenaline was pumping with excitement from the new battle. It was hard switching his gaze from the screen, back to the girls, and vice versa.

“It’s just like when I met you at the cafe.” Birdy giggled. “You can’t hide your love for virus busting. I think it’s kind of cute.” She was as close to him, the same way the other two girls were clinging to Destin.

“Hmmm we do a little virus busting in ACDC from time to time, but our Navi’s arnt powerful like yours, so we mostly just use surf the peaceful parts of the net as another way to hang out with each other.” Taja grabbed her PET from a small purse that was sitting with in reach outside of the water, and showed Destin the screen. It showed a basic female normal Navi in a lime green, with yellow trim color pallet. “Meet Limon.”

“I’ll show you mine to!” Bianca turned around to grab her PET as well, but it was a little further off. She bent over, her behind sticking up high, in front of Destin’s face as she tried stretching her arm out to grab it. “Destin do you mind? I can’t quite get to it without getting out.”
Destin nodded as Taja showed him, her PET and her Navi. "Limon is a good name," he said, before he turned toward his other side to see Bianca's Navi; And came face to "face" with Bianca. His cheeks colored a little as he quickly looked away. "U-Uh, sure, just a sec. Give me a moment and I'll get out and grab your PET," he told Bianca as he twisted a little to grab his towel and dab at his face's new sheen of sweat.

"How long have you had Limon?" he asked Taja as he tried to calm down. It was a good thing that the jets brought with them concealing bubbles. He tried to slow his breathing and bodily reactions with a few, deep breaths. "You know it took me a long time of concentrated Virus Busting and taking missions from the GNA and NS to get DragonierMan as strong as he is. It might take you a little longer, but I'm sure you'll get there eventually if that is what you want."

After about a minute, he was calmed down enough to extract himself from the water. However, he didn't trust to have fully calmed down, so he quickly wrapped the towel around his waist to conceal his front, and held it with one hand while he walked over to Bianca's PET. He reached down and grabbed the device with his free hand, and then turned around and returned it to Bianca's outstretched hands. He then returned to the hot tub, turned around to show his back to the group, unwrapped his towel from around his waist, and stepped down/slid back into the water in reverse. The movement caused him to splash backwards a little and enter the deeper part of the middle of the tub before he got his footing again. Eventually he made his way back to his original seat.

Once again concealed in case of another 'accident', he turned to Bianca. "So tell me about your Navi?"
