They had traditions out here on Cat Island - or, well, ways to entertain the tourists that came through here week after week. Spirits had flowed freely well into the evening, and dances and costumes and all sorts of razzle dazzle had come through the diner and engulfed the docks in light.

But somewhere near the end of the evening, close to the big finale, three people wandered further and further away onto the beach. Lucifer, of course, was carrying a cooler in one hand, and his long, thin teal shirt hung loose and open around his body.

He was smiling a bit.

"I think we're almost far enough away," he said.

Octavia glanced back over her shoulder. The lights of the marina were getting further and further away, and she made a vague noise of agreement.

She was in what had become her staple outfit for this particular trip, her much-loved caftan over a tube top and shorts - and a very lightweight pair of flats, to ward off accidental contact with plants by stepping on them.

“Almost,” Duke agreed, also looking back — and flashing Octavia a smile when he saw her doing it too. He was shirtless, wearing only board shorts slung low on his hips, his hair down and ruffling in the soft wind.

"Well, we are lurking in relative darkness, compared to them," Octavia offered, with a glance at Duke.

betterthanaplan: (thoughtfully amused)
From: [personal profile] betterthanaplan
“We are,” Duke agreed. “They won’t be able to hear us over the music, either.”

From: [personal profile] okteiviakom
Octavia shrugged, with another lingering glance back towards the party. "I'm okay with it?" she offered.

A lot of the past week or so had involved Octavia making some attempts at being agreeable, but in this case she actually meant it.

"I'm definitely game." There'd been a fair amount of mild agreement between the two of them. Neither was trying to set off another argument.

He took a few more steps, then sat, legs bent, facing the water, though he was looking up at his partners instead.

"This looks like a great place to ring in the new year."

For her part, Octavia wasn't flopping down anywhere at all just yet.

She was toeing her shoes off so she could get her feet on and in the sand.

Date: 31 Dec 2024 21:40 (UTC)
betterthanaplan: (extra beachy)
From: [personal profile] betterthanaplan
Duke slid his own feet into the sand, still watching her.

"Anyone have any resolutions to share?"

Date: 31 Dec 2024 21:50 (UTC)
okteiviakom: ([neu] hope)
From: [personal profile] okteiviakom
"I don't think I've ever had a resolution," Octavia added, watching the waves.

Well, maybe her resolution had been just to keep surviving, for many years of her life.

betterthanaplan: (thoughtful)

"I don't usually bother with anything serious," Duke said, nodding. He leaned back on his hands and looked at the water. "And anyway, I already have a pretty solid list of goals to work through right now. I think I'm with Luce on this one."

Oh. That was probably something Octavia shouldn't stay quiet on.

"Yeah," she murmured. Very soft, digging her toes further into the sand.

Date: 31 Dec 2024 22:27 (UTC)
betterthanaplan: (shiny hair and concern)
From: [personal profile] betterthanaplan
Duke picked up one foot to poke her playfully in the leg with his toes.

"Whatcha thinking about, gona?"

Date: 31 Dec 2024 22:46 (UTC)
okteiviakom: ([neu] this face is unfair)
From: [personal profile] okteiviakom
"Nothing, really," Octavia murmured, as she gave Duke's foot a little nudge back with hers. "Just..."

She nodded towards Lucifer.

"What he said."

Date: 31 Dec 2024 23:02 (UTC)
betterthanaplan: (taking this seriously)
From: [personal profile] betterthanaplan
"Happiness, health, and peace," Duke said. He ran his toe gently down her leg. "Good plan."

okteiviakom: ([neu] good hair day)
From: [personal profile] okteiviakom
Octavia finally turned a little more towards them, although she was looking at her feet as she did, to keep from jostling the little connection she had going with Duke.

"Think that takes more than just saying 'better communication'," she noted, soft.

Date: 1 Jan 2025 16:18 (UTC)
betterthanaplan: (shiny hair and concern)
From: [personal profile] betterthanaplan
“Yeah?” Duke said, trying to encourage her to keep talking.

He kept his toe against her leg as she turned, leaving little trails of sand against her calf.

Date: 1 Jan 2025 18:39 (UTC)
okteiviakom: ([neu] not again)
From: [personal profile] okteiviakom
Octavia was oblivious to how they were looking at her. Or at least seemed to be.

She gave another one of her little hums as she sat down, cross-legged, more or less where she'd been standing. It was convenient for pulling Duke's foot to rest on her lap.
