Manu: suddenly it all makes sense.

Manu: i'm in Auradon City at the moment.

Manu: trying to decide my life and all that shit.

Calli: I suffered through chlorine last year. I was not about to do it again.

Calli: YAY! We should do something!!

Calli: Oh, right, you have to go be an adult now. Hmm, have you thought about seeing if you could get a job with the kingdom? I imagine they need Environmental Engineers.

Calli: You could talk to mitch.

Manu: are you even going to survive being so far away from your favorite ocean again?

Manu: suddenly you being on the swim team makes extra sense.

Calli: I am literally drying up as we speak.

Calli: yup, its also why I campaigned and got them to switch to a salt water pool this year. With the help of a generous donation from my parents.

Calli: are you in Auradon City? Or still in Sea Side??

It was late enough in the evening that Callista and Manu got to have a little time to themselves. Which was always a nice couple of hours. “Okay so if this happens again,” she motioned to her stomach as she walked out of the bathroom. “We have to figure out how the sea horses do it cause it is way past your turn to haul one of these around.” she settled on the edge of the bed. Using the towel to dry her hair. She was at the point where everything just felt like an endeavor. She’d almost just sworn off showers until the baby came because it made her tired. But one could only allow spit up and baby drool to be on them for so long. So her shower boycott ended almost as quickly as it started. “I feel like... a land whale... a blue land whale to be exact,” there was a slight pout on her lips as she blue eyes watched Manu move around the room. @emmanuelnautilus

Callista was pretty sure she spent more time with her sister now that they worked together. Then they had growing up. But lately, a lot of the time spent together was all business talk. It was kind of nice getting to just relax and catch up on a more personal level. Plus the tiny humans enjoyed getting to see their aunt. “Marisol was all smiled about seeing you and then she passes out just as you get here. Silly girl,” she spoke in a hushed tone as she pulled the door to the kid's room closed. “I’m sure she’ll wake up before you leave though she never naps long. Cause she hates us.” There was an obvious playfulness to her voice. Even if sometimes she was convinced her youngest child had it out for them. Making her way back into the living room she plopped down in the chair across from the redhead. “So what have you been up to the last couple of days? Meet up with anyone exciting? Is Andrew in town?” Since her life consisted of children and fish. Callista was more than eager to live vicariously through her older sister. Even if it was boring mundane things. It was something different. @ariatriton

In all reality, Callista didn’t get much time to visit with anyone. She lived in the middle of the ocean after all. So setting up a get together with Riley had her excited. Manu had been nice enough to offer to take Kai out for a little while. Leaving Marisol at home. Really the blonde didn’t know who got the better end of that deal as her daughter watched her like a little shark from her walk and play. “It's open,” slipped from her lips when she heard a knock at the door. she finished up what she was doing. Carrying a platter of fresh fruit to the coffee table as she greeted the Blonde. “Hey you,” she beamed, crossing the small distance once her hand was free. “Look at you, all cute and pregnant!” she chimed as she tilted her head. “I would hug you but I feel like it would be too much.” She patted her very large stomach as she chuckled. “But come in, I have snacks. Also don’t mind the tiny shark child, she kind of like to stare people down when she first meets them.” she motioned to Marisol who was staring up at Riley with slightly narrowed eyes.  @littlerileyfitz

It was easy enough to brainstorm proposal ideas during the day, Kaela and Siren’s schedules hardly linked up, and if she had any sense, Siren would be catching up on sleep before the busy night at the club ahead of her, what with all the travelling of outsiders to Auradon City. Instead, she fueled herself with coffee after coffee and opened her email to be informed that, no, as a matter of fact, magic carpets were not rent-able. “Well, fuck” Siren murmured to herself as she set her phone down on the table in defeat, not even taking note of the audience she’d had. @callistatriton

“You don’t look happy,” slipped from the blonde’s lips as she made her way towards Siren. It wasn’t often that she got to see the other women. Manu and she were always in the middle of the ocean. It didn’t really lend itself to family visits. So she figured she would take the time to come see the women. Who was pretty much family while Manu took the kids on an adventure. “Anything I can help with?” was added genuinely as she slowly lowered herself down into the chair next to her. Mentally repeating the “I will not give birth until I’m back on the rig.” mantra she’d been saying since they made it back to shore. “I’ve been known to be pretty helpful,” was added with a big smile.

10 years in the future

After graduating, Callista spent a year working on the Arcana, a marine biology research vessel off the coast of Sea Side. With the help of her mentors, family and like-minded friends. The Altum Project was born. The Project focused on marine research as well as environmental conservations. It was presented to all the Kingdoms as an initiative to better understand the ecosystem of the oceans as well as work to improve the way people interact with nature and its creatures.  

With the aid of Manu Nautilus, Her sister, Aria Triton, as well as Support for King Mitchell. The Altum Project has flourished into a fully functional Ocean research facility. The facility is completely self-sustained and resides off the shores of Auradon in the deep of the ocean. The only way to reach it is by boat or helicopter.

Callista and Manu live on and run the facility fulltime. While Aria, usually takes point of the political aspects of the Projects.

On top of running the place, Callista and Manu are also rasing their two children, Kai who is four and Marisol who is one.

Adelaide: at this point i am ready to hide his body.

Adelaide: but i also think there will be no doubt as to who did it...

Adelaide: my displeasure has been heard.....

Adelaide: uuuuuuuuugh

Lista: I mean, we're both rich enough we could pay someone to do it.

Lista: Just have to not have a paper trail. Or a digital trail... so we need to melt our sim cards after this conversation.

I find it quite easy to get in and out of character. I don’t know why - I guess it’s my job.

Text Message | Siren

Lista: So I was thinking about going out tonight. I feel like dancing.

Lista: AND you are the best person to invite along. Cause you make everything fun. So what do you say??

if he focused, for just a moment, he could only hear the sounds of the ocean. it was one of things he could easily admit was something he enjoyed about being off the isle. don’t get it wrong, Manu enjoyed swimming with the sharks as much as the rest of them but there was something about the complete and open freedom of it all. he could feel the ocean in his fucking bones. even with the fact that he was forced to seaside with the Triton’s, it was probably the most calm he could ever really remember being. feeling a presence near him, he cracked an eye open and found Callista coming his way. “don’t tell me.” he began as he let his eye fall closed again. “you have an adventure planned.” not that he was against one but sometimes it was nice just to, soak up the sun on a day off. @callistatriton

Beach days were a constant for Callista. She was either laying in the sand all day or swimming off to the little islands off the coast. Either way, she made sure to spend as much time near the ocean as possible. Especially knowing that only in a short time she would be back in Auardon City. A smile broke on to her lips when she was greeted by her new favorite ocean adventure partner. “No,” she hummed as she plopped down in the sand next to him. “I plan on becoming one with this beach. We can have an adventure tomorrow,” was added as she laid back to mimic his position. “Unless you were just dying to go on one, then I am sure I can come up with something.” turning her head she offered him a playful little grin.

FMK: Siren, Orion, Manu

F: Orion; this is a bit unfair since I’ve already done so. But it was fun so I don’t mind doing it again. 

M: Manu; I feel like we have a lot of the same interests when it comes to the ocean and environment so it would work out well. plus... he would be a great trophy husband. 

Kiss: Siren; so I would kiss her and probably F* her too. But since I only had K left I have to put her here. I like her a lot though she is fun to hang out with. 

[callistatriton]

FMK: Clara, Ela, Riley

F: Clara; I don’t know her to well. But she’s cute. So i mean why wouldn’t i be willing. 

M: Riley; because she is wonderful and she would be an amazing wife. 

Kiss: Ela; also don’t know her too well but again pretty girl. why not.

[callistatriton]

FMK: Orion, Mitch, Tristan

F: Mitch; i mean.. have you seen him. He looks like he’d be fun.

If you could become Queen of any kingdom other than your own, which would you choose and why?

“Umm... Atlantica of course. My life long dream is to finally be a mermaid and rule over my grandfather’s people. Even if I would have to somehow get rid of my bazillion cousins.”
