Wednesday Night Long After Dark-- Serenity Cove

[sensethevisions]

Phoebe had been swimming around the island again. The earlier conversations had been a mixture of upsetting and relaxing. Barbossa had even sung to her and then had given her rum. It made her feel a little better.

She had talked with River and Jane later and had found out that Jane had lived in interesting historical times and that River was really intrigued by what had happened.

After talking to them, she had decided to swim out further from the island and do some exploring out there. She was now off the coast at Serenity Cove. The lights of the town and the school were tiny spots in the darkness, and she kept looking over her shoulder as she swam out to darker water and explored.

She would hear if anyone called for her, though.

Partly to look for Phoebe, and partly to just enjoy a nice quiet night out by the water, Archie and Veronica made their way down to Serenity Cove.

"Only in Fandom," he told Veronica, shaking his head and humming softly.

"Yeah," Veronica sighed, gripping his hand a little tighter. "Phoebe!" she called. "Are you out here?"

[sensethevisions]

Yes, yes she was.

Phoebe had been on top of the water examining some shells in the moonlight. Hearing someone calling her name, she turned and swam back to Serenity Cove.

She burst from the water onto the rocks.

"Hi!"

Despite knowing that her friend was a mermaid, actually seeing her with a tail was a little disconcerting.

"Hey, Phoebes," Veronica said, striving to keep her tone light. "How's it going?"

[sensethevisions]

"Hi Veronica. Hi Archie. Are you guys here to talk to me or to yell at me?"

[marsheadtilt.livejournal.com]

"I just wanted to know why you won't come home," Veronica said.

[sensethevisions]

"Why do people keep saying that? I am home."

[actingltcrumpet.livejournal.com]

"Hello, Phoebe," Archie said with a smile. No, he didn't know all the details of how she'd ended up with a tail yet. "Why on earth would we yell at you?"

[sensethevisions]

Phoebe smiled at Archie. "Hi Archie! A few people have gotten mad... and then Barbossa sang to me and gave me rum."

[actingltcrumpet.livejournal.com]

"As I'd expect of him," Archie chuckled. "Sadly I have no rum for you, but I could sing if you'd like, to compensate for the angry people."

Pippi and Walter walked over from Cafe Fina to find Phoebe.

"So is the hair tie for her then?"

[walter-n-wires.livejournal.com]

Walter nodded and looked around for Phoebe. "Yes. She asked for one."

[strongestgirl.livejournal.com]

"I wonder how it happened."

[sensethevisions]

Phoebe hadn't gone very far after talking to Veronica and Archie. She had only gone out a little ways and was drinking some of the rum from Barbossa when she heard voices.

It was Walter and Pippi!

She swam back and lay on the beach to let her fins stay wet.

"Walter! Pippi! Hi!"

[walter-n-wires.livejournal.com]

Walter waved and kicked off his shoes to go closer to the water's edge. "Hi, Phoebe. Any news?"

[strongestgirl.livejournal.com]

Pippi didn't kick her boots off at all, she sloshed up to Phoebe in them, gawking openly.

"Wow Phoebe!"

[sensethevisions]

Phoebe smiled at Walter. "My spells don't work, but I think Piper might be working on it... although she's angry at me."

She then grinned at Pippi, moved along the waves. "Hi, Pippi!"

[strongestgirl.livejournal.com]

"You look... Wow, gold huh?" Pippi said.

"And I don't think your sister is angry at you. She probably just misses having you around up at the dorms."

After the unsuccessful visit to the Sea Hag (http://cookinggeek.livejournal.com/30478.html), Lana went looking for Phoebe again. She stood on one of the rocks and called to her. "Phoebe! Phoebe, please. I've been looking for you all day."

[sensethevisions]

Again, Phoebe hadn't gone far, just out to the place she'd been exploring and drinking some of Barbossa's rum. When she heard Lana's call, she made her way swiftly back into the Cove.

"Hi, Lana!"

[lovelylana.livejournal.com]

"Phoebe!" Lana looks relieved. "You weren't by Selkie Cove. I thought maybe you'd swum far away somewhere."

[sensethevisions]

Phoebe smiled at her. "I was swimming around the island. I was at Galactica earlier and plan to go to Selkie tomorrow."

[lovelylana.livejournal.com]

"I was scared," Lana said quietly.

[sensethevisions]

Phoebe looked confused. "Why were you scared, lana?"

[lovelylana.livejournal.com]

"I couldn't find you and Bel kept saying that your heart was going to turn cold because mermaids don't have feelings and Piper was worried that you'd swim off somewhere forever..." Lana ducked her head. "I was afraid you'd already gone and we wouldn't be able to help you and I'd never see you again."
