ꗃ 𝗹𝗼𝗰𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 : estate beach front
⤷ 𝘀𝘁𝗮𝘁𝘂𝘀 : open starter , accepting replies !
“ did you say hello ? ” chocolate hues fixated on her watercolor book , trying to capture the exact hue of aegean blue . finally , she looked up at the other through her sunglasses . “ — to the sea , ” pointing at the crystalline water using the tip of her brush . “ my server insisted to always greet the sea . there's an etiquette to the ocean here . greeting it is apparently the first rule . she remembers those who dont ... ” she said with a shrug . now , luiza wasn't supersitious but there was something about old customs , especially the ones that had survived centuries , that she found difficult to dismiss entirely .
⋆.° ᝰ.ᐟ slate colored eyes dart up from her phone screen and over to luiza. granted, freya really should take this wedding as a chance to disconnect. unfortunately, she couldn’t resist checking on a couple emails while she had some free time. “ huh, ” comes her initial reply. “ interesting. it does make sense, with an ocean as beautiful as this, i can see why one should greet the sea. some say that oceans can be rather … temperamental. did your server explain what would happen if one doesn’t ? ”
"alright. you're going to be my savior today," evelina announces to the first person she sees, a bright smile on the brunette's face. she loves weddings and everything that comes with them. to say she's overwhelmed would be an understatement, but it's in the best possible way. there's food, there's cocktails, there's different kinds of activities. she's on a mission to try everything, or at least attempt to try everything. "i can't decide what activity to do first. it was hard enough narrowing down to two, for starters, but i did it. is it exploring the gardens or preparing cocktails?" she fists both her hands, placing them in between her and the person before her, playful twinkle to her eyes. "pick one hand, you'll be the decider. no pressure!"
⋆.° ᝰ.ᐟ maxine is barely paying attention as her fingers work to twist her hair up into a perfectly loose yet put together up-do to secure with a claw clip. so evelina’s sudden presence did surprise her a little. “ honestly you’re so right though. there’s so much to do, it really is hard to pick one. ” lips twist up in thought at the two options the other woman presented. “ so i think we should start off with exploring the gardens and then unwind with cocktails. i don’t know how long it’s gonna take us to explore the gardens but we might be tired after that and that’s when we can reward ourself with cocktails ! ”
❝ you've got to try one of the loukoumades. ❞ pregnancy craving turned true delight, even with oven long empty, nana delights in their syrupy goodness even as her fingers grow sticky. ❝ i promise they're worth the extra sugar. ❞
⋆.° ᝰ.ᐟ “ oh i really shouldn’t ! ” she bites her bottom lip, pretending to hesitate for a moment. and she really shouldn’t. but she’s in greece, it’s a wedding for crying out loud ! she deserves to have a bit of fun. a dramatic sigh pushes past her lips. “ you’ve definitely sold me on those. they look absolutely divine. ”
lounges on the catamaran webbing nets, digits intertwined between crown of dark curls as he watches the sparkle on azure clear waters, the sound of getting slowly intoxicated people all - around. “ throw me one of those white claws, will ya ? ” draws it out like a southerner even though ender is california bred through and through. doesn't even like white claw but it was the coldest and most nearby drink in proximity.
⋆.° ᝰ.ᐟ nimble fingers wrap around the stem of her freshly prepared hugo spritz. she breathes in deeply, letting the salt-scented air invade her senses. freya is just about to head back to her seat when someone calls out. “ never thought of you as a white claw kinda bloke, ” she comments. “ any flavor in mind ? you seem like you’d go for black cherry. ”
𑁯 * davika hoorne, cis woman, she/her .ᐟ hey, i think i just ran into MAXINE SOMSRI at athens international airport ! you mean the thirty3 year old OLYMPIC FIGURE SKATER known for their couture skating costumes, athleisure sets worn with structure outerwear and loewe puzzlebag ? no way, i heard they were invited by the ELLINGTONS. no surprise when you realize their family net worth is insane, i bet it’s all on off - shore accounts on the cayman islands. word goes that they are CHILDHOOD FRIEND TO THE GROOM, but it makes sense when you consider their lips glossed with rhode peptide in the salty tan, losing oneself in the process to become the ideal, the lingering scent of roses and black currant, it matches their reputation. maybe they will bring some drama to the wedding, i mean their vibes are similar to DICK GRAYSON and ALISON BLAIRE / DAZZLER. but truly, i don’t believe MAX will be the one to speak up instead of forever hold their peace ⸻ let’s wait and see.

maxine somsri is born the youngest child to a family of old money standing. she was once hailed as a generational prodigy where her life revolved entirely around the ice. and with such a demanding sport, she’s driven by ambition as well as the mounting pressure of parents who equated her successes to their own. her life was centered around this, rising quickly through the ranks to become a world champion and an olympic icon. she’d achieved everything she was told. she became a highly decorated olympic medalist in women’s singles figure skating. and skating was all she knew. but little does maxine fully realize that with each achievement, she loses more and more of herself in the process. now she starts to grapples through some … unresolved issues: burnout, identity, expectations. but perhaps a trip to greece to attend a wedding of a childhood friend will put things into perspective.

a crochet girlie. took up crocheting as a hobby. she finds the repetitive motions to be relaxing where she can zone out for a bit if she needs to. also helps pass time when attending figure skating competitions
a bit of a coffee aficionado. now she wouldn’t call herself a pro but she definitely holds a deep knowledge of coffee from sourcing to roasting to flavor profiles. not as much of a snob as she used to be about it but can appreciate a good cup of coffee
has a complicated relationship with figure skating. she isn't fully ready to accept that she's falling out of love with the sport. maxine used to be hungry for it. would strive to be the ideal and would do anything to keep up with the competition. she is currently trying to not have a full blown existential crisis over who she is without the sport
a highly decorated olympic medalist. has a bronze medal from the 2014 team event and a silver from the individual event, and finally a gold from the 2018 individual event and bronze from the team event
