Tagged, You're It [OTA, Walking between Calgona and the cabins]

César sometimes falls deeply asleep for a nap on one of the Calgona's massage tables post after-workout shower. Look, he can sleep on his face and stomach, can you blame him?

Nor can we blame Jinx for what she does when she finds him. A fresh white t-shirt and light gray lounge pants make an excellent blank canvas and a good way to deliver a hint that she's missed talking to him. By the time she's done, César's clothes are far more... colorful.

On the seat of his pants are two smileys that compliment the stars on either of his cheeks. Down the legs and arms of the shirt are more stars, zig-zags, and swirls. On the back of his shirt is a brightly colored:
JINX
WAS
HERE

... someone should let him know as he walks back towards the cabins. Please?

Say Hello [Established CR, Atrium Lounge]

The atrium lounge is a good place to run into others and stop himself from hermiting like he has in the last handful of months. When he spots someone he knows, César stops what he's doing on his tablet and stands, waving.

"Long time no sea!" The worst part about the pun isn't that it's not noticeable but that his player typed it by accident and died inside.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

What's in the Bag? [OTA (see options), Between Laundry and Cabins]

It's César's turn for Laundry Day. Which means he's carrying back neatly folded laundry in a fabric basket made from various Tommy Bahama Shirts with handles from a tote bag. This means that César's made an absolute monstrosity of a laundry basket. Yes, it was done on purpose. Yes, César thinks he's funny.

When he sees someone, he stops walking and smiles warmly.

A. If he knows that someone, he'll great them in a time of day appropriate greeting ("Morning!" "Afternoon!" "Evening!" "Hello!") and ask, whilst meaning it: "How are you today?"

B. If he doesn't know that someone, he'll still greet them appropriately ("Morning!" "Afternoon!" "Evening!" "Hello!") but change it up, instead asking: "Oh, are you new? I'm César Salazar. Are you settling in okay?"

((OOC: The image was done in Paint so liberties were taken as it was made from various Tommy Bahama Shirts.))

The Morning After Zombie Apocalypse [CLOSED, Backdated, Rich, Johnny, Watson]

The triad dads could've lost Rich. They didn't, but it could've easily gone another way. So all four of them are crammed together into one bedroom, the bed (with Watson and Johnny) and the couch bed (with César and Rich) shoved alongside each other.

César startles awake when Rich kicks him in his sleep sometime in the late morning hours. "Mmmfph?"

Message Received [Closed to Jinx]

César seeks Jinx out once he's gotten a new t-shirt and a pair of sweatpants. He knows where she lives, so he'll walk right into the theatre and call out:

"I got your message!"

[It was slow, but at least it was finally starting. He turns his head into the hug for a moment, just shutting his eyes and taking a few slow breaths. It really is nice... not seeing, hearing, or touching anything outside of César and his warmth. It makes this place a little less terrifying.

He chuckles softly again, shaking his head.]


Being corny again... I'm sure someone else could have fit too.

[He's just lucky it was him.]

[Rich just lets his dad be corny, then, perhaps a little too tired to argue much more. He smiles at César's quiet voice, answering in a whisper of his own.]

Not really... I'll try.

[He leans in as close as he can, letting himself fall silent, focusing hard on the rhythmic thump near his ear.]

[Rich, for his part, would have argued that he isn't a baby, that he surely wasn't going to fall asleep just because he'd made it to the other side of a harrowing breakdown, just because he had barely slept last night, and just because it was so quiet and warm and calming to be in his father's arms.

...Rich, naturally, is lying. He barely mumbles something half-inaudible about how this reminds him of drumming, before he's down for the count.]
