[Kiter grumps and whines a bit about having to stay behind, but a promise of a big juicy steak and all the cuddles and rubs he wants when she returns pacifies him.

With the pets sheltered, Riona turns her thoughts to this mystery vacation. Late honeymoon. It's not often they get to indulge themselves like this. So she's quite excited to see where they're going and what he has in mind.

Once they arrive, she looks around them, a little wide-eyed as she takes it all in. A bungalow on the beach, peaceful and quiet. They're close enough to the ocean that she can hear the waves crashing on the shore. Alistair, privacy, and the ocean: three of her greatest loves.]

Oh, Alistair... this is beyond wonderful. I'm so looking forward to our days here. [With a big grin, she leans over and kisses him.]

[reluctantbastard]

[He can't help but smile at her exclamations. He knew she'd like it, but this is a bit more than he expected. A trip to the shores of Par Vollen would have been wonderful back on Thedas as a honeymoon, or maybe Rivain but not exactly practical. And since she grew up in Highever, on the coast, he figured that this might remind her a little of her home, without all the cold water from the Waking Sea.]

Well, it's gratifying to know that I did well and we can have a nice honeymoon.

[He wraps his arms around her from behind in a hug and kisses her cheek, close to her ear.]

There's a lot to do in this system, but I just wanted to spend some time with you away from all of our friends and colleagues for a few days. Preferably naked.

[bryces_pup]

[She leans back against him, just enjoying being in his arms for the moment.]

That sounds perfectly wonderful. [Just the two of them, a bed and a sea breeze. What more can she ask for?] Though if we're forgoing clothes for this stay, then what's in those bags?

[reluctantbastard]

[Yes, he is definitely basking in the fact that he's done a great thing for her, for them. Especially since they have gone through a bit of crap thrown at them by the Atroma. They deserve a break. A break with the ocean.]

Well, not all clothes have to be ignored. [He hands her the bag and steps back to see what she thinks of the contents: a few bikinis for her that resemble some of the tropical flowers that aren't that far from their temporary lodgings and a pair of trunks for him.] I wouldn't suggest going into the water without something to protect your lovely assets, love.

[bryces_pup]

[They absolutely have. Riona still keenly feels the loss of Fenris, Wolfe and Marian. Somedays she finds herself thinking of something she would share or want to talk about with them, only to remember that she no longer can.

It'll be nice to set all that aside and just relax.

Ah, and the mystery is solved. Riona paws through the bikinis, nodding in approval. He has good taste. ]

No skinny dipping then, for the sake of my lovely assets? [ She teases, grinning at him. ]

[reluctantbastard]

[It's difficult for him to feel sad for the loss of the others from Thedas, considering how little he knew them. However, he's aware that Riona has spent a great deal of time with them before he arrived, so he misses them for her sake.

And with the Atroma really messing with their lives the way that they have lately, this is just what the king and ship medic ordered.]

No, no skinny dipping. I've heard the horror stories and I'd rather avoid any of those sorts of things happening. Besides, this place isn't quite that secluded.

[bryces_pup]

Ooooh fine. I'll be all modest and wear the bikini.

[She grins at him before taking his hand and pulling him towards their bungalow.]

Come, let's see what's inside! And get familiar with the bed. I have a feeling we'll be spending a fair amount of time in it.

[reluctantbastard]

Well, you don't have to be modest all the time.

[Eyebrow waggle because he's so subtle. Yes, yes he is. And before the rest of the words are out of her mouth, he is dragging her inside the bungalow, ready to start their belated honeymoon ASAP.]
