Atlantis Resort - Monday [Rooms & Activities]

Monday brought more sunshine and blue skies to the imposing Atlantis resort. The beaches laid open and welcoming, the drinks were fruity, and the people were already milling around in the sun. A thousand bottles of suntan oil popped open - it's the Bahamas, and paradise is just the word of the day. Enjoy yourself.

Endless miles of white sand beach stretch as far as the eye can see. Lounge chairs, umbrellas, beach towels, and bar-side swings are available to all guests of Atlantis.

Ancient techniques from Asia, traditional European spa therapies, and natural spices, fruits and minerals indigenous to The Bahamas meld together to provide the most unique treatments and the ultimate rejuvenating experiences.

The endless activities and cuisine of Atlantis await!

Good god, I would kill to be here right now.

Spending all of his first day on the beach tended to zap a guy of his energy. All that sun, you know. And it wasn't like the hotel wasn't awesome because it was. Somewhere in the back of his mind, he knew he should get up, go enjoy himself but that could wait.

Dozing lightly and doing some decidedly unmanly cuddling was the perfect start to the first full day of vacation.

Ender made it down to the beach early in the morning, while dawn had barely even touched the sky. He'd brought a light blanket with him for the occasion, and sat.

He had his laptop with him, of course, but he was mostly here to give free reign to his thoughts.

Jonas had spent most of his yesterday in the water park so he was sporting a light tinge of pink. He remembered, though, to slather himself with sunscreen before heading to the beach.

Now that he was here, he was finding himself fascinated with digging his toes in the sand and watching the water wash over them to interrupt all his hard work.

Kyle was up pretty early and gearing up for another day checking out the immediate area. He'd noticed the shorts and loud shirts yesterday and managed to get himself appropriate clothes. Sadly, they really didn't go well with the very sensible shoes and socks he was currently pulling on. Habits were hard to break.

Hungry enough to actually venture out and get food, Angela decided that the Marketplace would be the best place to get something she could actually eat.

And when she saw all that was there, she was left quietly grumbling, "There's nothing I want to eat here." Where was the cameraman to complain to when she needed him?

Loki wasn't typically one to spend a holiday fucking shopping but it was the first place he'd come upon and it was crowded which just meant it was fucking great for watching people and causing trouble.

Loki was a fucking awesome role model.

Well, Jack made it out of his room today. That was progress.

Progress looked a lot like idly watching people come and go while emptying a steady stream of things that came with fruit, umbrellas, and more alcohol than you would expect in them -- but it was still progress.

Jaina woke up too early for vacation, and almost wishing her comlink would go off or something so it'd give her a reason to be awake. Also, stuff to do in downtime.

So after showering and getting dressed, Jaina sat back on her bed to compose an Email, figuring that should take up some time before she could show her face outside without anyone bugging her about being up early.

Sand wasn't so bad under bare feet when it was sand like this, and it sure as kriff beat having to wear boots back in the cold in Fandom right now. Other things that were nice: not having to constantly be on guard against herself, like she had been on the Kellerman's trip.

Really, even with Alex for a roommate, Tahiri hadn't felt this good in a long time. She'd found herself a spot on the sand, stretched out on a towel in a one-piece suit -- no bikinis for her, thanks, not where non-Fandom people might wonder about some of the scars -- and gazed out at the water.

The beach had always been a peculiarity for her, but it was doubly fascinating now: for the girl who'd grown up in Tatooine's endless deserts, and the girl who'd grown up in a worldship crossing the intergalactic void. It was fascinating, and beautiful, for two completely different reasons that didn't cancel each other out. She'd be happy to lie here all day and watch it, if no one stopped her.

Slathered down with sunblock and wearing a t-shirt and shorts over her swimsuit, Tara laid down on her towel. She had a paperback open in front of her, but mostly she was letting herself get lost watching the waves. She'd take a dip soon.

Still half drunk from yesterday (and what a good first day of vacation it was), Alex did manage to make it out to the beach today. He didn't know how long he'd stay but, after pulling his shirt off and settling his sunglasses on his nose, he found himself glad he'd come out there.

Towel spread out on the sand, he took a seat and tucked an arm under his head, using both the position and the sunglasses to subtly watch people as they passed.

They hadn't even changed time zones, so the only thing Kennedy could blame for waking up so early in the morning was being used to doing just that. Of course, that begged the question of whether she should get up and go work out (yes, the gym had been one of the first things she'd looked for yesterday) because it was what she did, or stay here, because... vacation. And really, really nice pillows.

Working out was not winning at the moment.

Fraser...didn't know how he'd ended up here. And now that he was, he was getting coaxed into partaking in the full spa experience. And, when you were Fraser, it was hard to say no.

This was going to be hard to explain later.

Leia settled in a lounge chair, content to do absolutely nothing for the rest of the day except soak up the sun.

Ben plopped down next to Ender about an hour later. "Won't you get sand in your laptop this way?" he asked.

"That's why I brought some plastic covering," Ender noted, "And I'm not currently on it, anywy."

Sometimes, Ender missed desks - they didn't break nearly as easily.

"I think you're supposed to leave work behind on vacations," he teased, glancing around the beach a little apprehensively before yanking his t-shirt over his head.

He wasn't as casual about the scars on his back as he wished.

"But I've only gone on vacations with the school, so I'm hardly an expert."

Ender didn't pay Ben's back any special attention - he already knew what it looked like. Instead, he hummed something in response, glancing towards the sea. "You are," he said, "It's pretty relaxing, too."

The only vacation he'd ever had was on a lake in Greensboro. Mainly because that had been the one place he'd had no trouble leaving his work behind at.

"Mind if I join you?" Leto asked. He wasn't sure if Jack really wanted company, but he suspected the man would let him know if that wasn't the case.

Jack wasn't seeking out company, but he didn't mind it. Leto was easy enough to be around.

"Not at all," he said, and scooted to the side to make a little more room. "Have you tried the pina coladas? I'm sure they're half rum, but you can't taste it at all."
