The Lost Handkerchief starring [Gill/Popuri]

grumpy-gilligan:

The opening of the door had caught Gill mid-yawn; he had stayed up a bit later the night before, but he honestly wasn’t expecting to be seeing anyone today. Well, there was no backing out now.

"Somewhat." He shrugged in response. "My father’s the mayor, but I am likely able to take care of whatever you may need, or at least forward some information."

"Oh, I see!" The pinkette chimed, approaching the blonde with a timid smile formed by pink lips. Fishing out the handkerchief from her purse, she explained her visit. "Well, you see, I visited not too long ago and during that visit I had fallen into the pier." Popuri refrained from getting embarrassed by this fact and simple held out the neatly folded cloth in front of her.

"Anyway, the reason I had fallen in was because I was simply trying to get this out of the water! I've washed it now, so I thought I should come and turn it into the town's lost and found. If you have one, that is." One of her usual warm smiles settled onto her face before holding the handkerchief in one hand and holding out her other. "I'm Popuri, by the way! You are?"

A Story || Sanjay & Gill

Alright then. I feel that I should tell you that... that it isn't a very happy tale. But it is a story that I have known for quite some time now. I like to call it 'The Princess and The Fool'. [He clears his throat.] Long ago, a fool was born, but he hadn't a mother nor a father. The fool was alone, but he believed that he wasn't lonely. The fool lived in an orphanage, quietly going about his days and doing what the man who ran the orphanage told him to. And one day, the King came into the orphanage and met the young fool.

He told the fool, that he was going to take him in and have him work for the royal family. The fool was happy. The fool cared for the King's young son and helped serve the royal family, and one day. The fool met a girl, a princess. To him, she was the most beautiful person in the world. And much to the fool's surprise, the Princess liked him as well. 

The fool was so happy! The fool and the princess spent all the time they could together, playing and talking and enjoying each other's company. And before either of them could realize it, the two had fallen in love. But her family would never let the two be together, so they were lovers in secret. 

Sneaking kisses and stealing each other away to be together, the two were so deeply in love. As they got older, they considered running away together. But, of course good things couldn't last. The princess was put into an arranged marriage. And the princess had to go through with it. The night before she were to go meet her husband to be, the princess and the fool spent a night together. And the next day, she was gone.

And though he could never have her, the fool still loves her. Despite the pain of not being able to be with her, the fool is still just happy to know that he was capable of loving someone in such a way.

Chill, dude. | Selena and Gill

Selena sighed as the song ended. Pushing the off button on her boombox, she grabbed her water bottle, taking a long swig of water.

Flute Fields were beautiful in the early dawn. She loved coming up here to dance, under the shade of the giant tree. Workouts just seemed to go better in this place.

She wouldn't trade it for the world. Even if dancing in the snow was unbearable.

She grabbed her jacket, shrugging it on and gathering her supplies. Better to get back to the Inn and grab a shower before the morning rush started. Then a few hours of shuteye before another practice session.

Somehow, this routine didn't bother her one bit.

As she entered the main part of Castanet, she was surprised to see someone else up and about.

"Gill?" The word slipped from her lips without warning, and she pursed her lips as he looked towards her. "What are you doing up? Little early for town patrol, isn't it?"

[not-a-pirate]

*Waddles around before approaching Joe, holding his arms out to the sides as if they were flippers. He mutters* s-squawk... squawk...

[raises a brow] Uh... hey?

[Gill/Paolo]

grumpy-gilligan:

Well, you do like fishing, yes? For the purpose of the town records, I’ve been meaning to ask you if the winter weather has affected your activities involving that particular hobby. *Reads over one of the questions on the paper on the clipboard* Would you say you do it more, less, or about the same as usual?

[nods] Yeah! I love fishing! Uhm... Sure, that's alright.

[listens as he reads off the first question] I'd say less... it's a bit too cold and the fish don't like it.

[paolo-of-the-lighthouse]

*Approaches Paolo with a serious, yet not angry, expression on his face; holding a clipboard and pen in one hand, he taps Paolo's shoulder lightly with the other* Excuse me, Paolo, can I speak to you for a moment?

[slightly startled by the sudden tap on his shoulder] Yes, what is it, Mr. Gill?
