A lot had happened in the last couple weeks, and it was decided that they needed a break. Cadenza still had classes to finish up so she'd be joining them later, so for now, it was just Tempera and Robin.

As much as he loved his sister, he was okay with having the alone time for a day or two.

"As soon as we check into our hotel, we'll be free to explore. There's plenty to pick from."

This wasn't the first fight of this scale he'd participated in, but it was certainly the one with the most participants. Argenti had, for the most part, spent his time assisting wherever he was needed, not having a particularly strong connection to any of the factions. At least until the dust had settled and he had an opportunity to check on a certain singer.

"Robin!" As soon as he saw her, he swept her up in his arms, much to the alarm of the tuners and medics nearby treating them. "What a joyous occasion that we get to meet after such intense battle. You aren't badly injured, yes?"

@singingwings bc we talked about Kingdom Hearts verse for Robin

It had been another summer celebration all day; Tempera had been busy with patrols to keep things going smoothly, but now that things were winding down, he could relax. At least in theory.

Robin was the first person he spotted who he knew; he knew she'd done a small concert today but he'd been unable to be in the area at the time. Now, she was sitting and just looking at the stars.

"Do you see something up there?"

It had been easy enough to find out where Robin was performing on this particular day, and also easy to get there. Getting through security with everything he had for her had been complicated but without causing a scene, so that was a victory for him.

She was in her dressing room, and he gently knocked on the door. Staff of the venue eyed him as they passed by, but not much more. They were probably used to seeing people with presents for Robin.

It had been a while since Gloria got to spend time with Robin. After everything had settled down between the events on Penacony and Amphoreus, she'd contacted Robin to see if she was up for a little vacation.

The hotel room was large, with its own kitchen and hot tub. As soon as they got in, Gloria couldn't help but giggle.

"Sooooo I realize it's probably overkill, but I figured we both need a little time out of the public eye, so having everything we need here made sense at the time."

Cadenza had been home for the summer when she received a message from Robin. They'd exchanged contact information during the school year, though she'd been too shy to use it. Robin wasn't, it seemed, because she had texted to let her know she was visiting Veloria in case they could meet up.

At the same point, however, she'd talked to Tempera and heard the same thing. She had, without even thinking about it, not actually told Robin her status on her own planet. She didn't think it mattered that far away from home.

Ah, well. Either way, they'd get to see each other.

She arrived with three other people, one who she recognized from the passengers who stayed for the celebrations from the Astral Express last time it docked on Veloria. The other was a bard who had visited before, and the last a woman who looked to be related to him.

"It's been a while," Cadenza said with a smile as they disembarked the ship.

Just as Tempera had said, he headed off the next morning. What he hadn’t mentioned, however, was the task he couldn’t start his time off for was playing in an open-air concert in one of the large city parks in Forte City. Given that people knew he was in the band, the crowd was perhaps larger than it usually was.

Which Robin and Cadenza stumbled upon on their walk. Not that Cadenza didn’t know it was going on, of course.

“Sorry, I guess it’s a little crowded today. A lot of concerts go on in the summer…”

It had been months since he was told he'd been arranged to marry. While he had the chance to choose his own wife, apparently he'd waited too long and the council decided it was time to intervene. Technically he could decline, because the council didn't have real power over the private lives of the royal family. But that came with a lot of badgering, so he'd decided against doing it, at least right away.

When the woman could finally visit, he'd been told to be on his best behavior. He knew he needed to be, but having to be on his best behavior around every potential suitor had been why he hadn't dated, let alone married, yet.

Still, he was going to suck it up for now.

He may have intentionally taken longer at work than he needed to, though, and when he returned home, the young woman had already arrived and been escorted to the gardens, where she would be having dinner with him and the rest of the royal family. She was staying at his grandmother's side, and he couldn't tell what they were talking about as one of the staff approached to let them know he was home.

"Good evening." He gave them both a bow. When he straightened back up, his grandmother was giving him a look. "A pleasure to finally meet you, Miss Robin."
