Nakiami slowly walked towards the small town as she enclosed her cloak, dragged some extra clothes. She knew a spot to take a simple bath within the waters of the sea. Even though most pirates enjoy walking in their dirt and sweat, she did not. slowly walking towards the town she would then stare far away seeing a boat coming towards the island. The boat didn't seem familiar to her which made her want to know more. She smiled within her darkness of a cloak as she would walk towards it exiting the store and to the shore.

Feeling the wind against her face she would go through the path made by trees as she sighed, thinking...Maybe she could make a use of herself and guide someone. Walking into the now stone path she stepped upon the wooden docks and looked at the people walking one by one and disappear into the forest path. She wondered if there was anyone that interested her enough to see and to talk to.

North Blue was an interesting enough place. Linnea spent a few years exploring it, and up until now had made no plans to leave it anytime soon, but those Kuja pirates provided her with a great opportunity to do so. She didn't find any particularly large or valuable treasure, but she did find enough to get by... Besides, it wasn't as if treasure was her primary motivation, it was just a welcome bonus. Her platinum hair fluttered with the breeze behind her as Linnea examined the shore she was soon to land upon with a smile on her face. New adventures awaited her!

Bidding her Kuja sisters goodbye once their ship finally docked, she pulled up the hood of her light dark outfit; the sun here was much hotter than what she was used to - the cold up North - but aside from a few stray beads of sweat trailing down her skin, she didn't betray any sort of discomfort. She immediately scouted her surroundings, and aside from the large number of men when compared to women (which was pretty much the same as in North Blue), there wasn't really anything out of the ordinary. Well, aside from another girl wearing a cloak under the sunny weather... Linnea thus walked around aimlessly with a curious look in her eyes, trying to get a feel for this new place...

Within her cloak she felt her bangs of her hair tickle along her neck and her cheeks as her eyes wandered each and every person. The only one that seemed to interest her was the one that also wore a hoodie. It wasn't the type of hoodie that hid her from people seeing her like her own, but it was one to hide her away from the sun. She would press her arms against her chest as she folded them and crossed one leg a little over the other. She wasn't sure on what to do at first, but then she figured that this woman should do the trick to entertain her. She smiled halfy through the darkness as she would push herself up and walked towards the woman.

She bowed rather simply as she would then look at the woman of crystalized ice. ''Are you new here? Do you wish for a guide?'' she asked calmly, coldish but in a kind way. She did  somewhat like to show people around. ''I'd be happy to show you around wherever towards your destination.'' she spoke once more as she then stood there waiting.

This was a pretty big crowd... Linnea looked down, hiding her gaze from all the people as she strolled through them. She wasn't really comfortable in large crouds and would much rather explore the island's more remote corners, the ones that might hold sights yet unseen. The Kuja tribe had a lot of people but not that many when compared to more crowded places like this island, and even back then she still found them too crowded. But then, an equally hooded girl adressed them from a few feet away.

"Yes, that would be great! I'm going nowhere specific; what interesting things are there to see and do around here?", she asked the girl with a cool, shy smile, "I did; I just arrived at the South Blue."

Seeing how she had the top of her face hidden too put the young archer more at ease, she didn't have to worry about averting her gaze or anything of the sort...

Nakiami felt a little bit more comfortable with this woman. Why? Some would of course ask. She had a feeling within her stomach and her heart that wasn't there. The girl's face wasn't all hidden and therefore she was able to see the 'cool' smile that had a tint of shyness upon it. Her right hand went into her hoodie and started to put her hair behind her ears although it could not be seen. She nodded as to understanding this girl's story as that she did just arrive here at the South Blue. She wondered what interesting things were there to do here as well which she then turned her head to the right side and started to think a little bit.

''There's food at the small gallows of the island town upon the trees and through the paths and before that there's...'' she started and went close to her right ear in a teasing way.

''A secret bathing place for us females.'' she whispered softly and leaned back with a chuckle.

Slowly her right hand went back towards her own face and rubbed her chin a little in a thinking manner. ''There is some adventure here, but not much.'' she says as she then rests her right arm against her side and stand there like a statue. Men were starring at them both as even though her face, head, whole body was hidden besides her neck they could see the womanly curves and the girls body as well. ''Shall we go? Where to first?'' she spoke in a calming manner now as she would then wait.

The girl suggested a food stand, but there was a better idea along the way: She blushed bashfully at feeling the girl suddenly scoot close and whisper into her ear, though probably not for the same reason she might expect; she was still a loner most of all. She was comfortable with her own body even if she was still a loner. True, male bodies were new to her:

"A bath sounds lovely, but why is it secret though?", wondered a keenly curious Linnea - glancing at the girl for a brief second before her gaze darted right back to the ground - to whom the idea of women needing a secret place for bathing was completely alien. True, she had indeed verified that men were pretty perverted, but even then, it felt odd.

She did comment there really wasn't much adventure to be had on this island, in which case Linnea would probably be leaving soon. For now though, might as well enjoy the company whose name she didn't yet know:

"What's your name anyways? I'm Naga D. Linnea!", she smiled as she shared her name, looking at the other girl this time, completely ignoring the stares they were getting. She couldn't really blame them, she stared at most of the men she saw when she first left the Kuja island...

"Nice to meet you, Naki-san.", she answered, looking on with curiousity as the girl brushed away the vegetation to reveal some secret hot springs. Once more she pointed out how there were no men there before pointing to a rock further away from them, earning an almost confused, innocent look from the platinum haired archer

Lin was shy about a lot of things, but clearly her body just wasn't one of them. It was understandable given how she had been raised without any real notion of gender, or without any great urge to cover herself with clothes as could be easily seen from her outfit. She pulled off her bow and quiver and undid the halter knot behind her neck:

"Discreet and quiet... I like it.", she smiled brightly as Naki's choice of bathing site matched her penchant for loneliness, before grabbing her skimpy dress by the hem of the skirt and pulling it up and off in one quick motion without a care in the world. She seldom wore a bra - whatever outfit she wore usually doubled as one - so between her dress and panties she wore particularly few items of clothing and in a few moments she dipped her foot into the waters, enjoying the pleasantly warm water against her skin...

As she lowered herself into the water, she could almost feel the salt and sweat being washed away while her skin slowly gained a red flush from the heat and she let out a relieved sigh:

"Feels nice...", she commented, smiling and leaning her head back, "Nicely done finding this place."

She nodded as she heard her say that it was nice to meet her. She made a small smile within the darkness of her cloak as she then watched Naga get somewhat undress seeing the curves more of her body. She wasn't sure on if she shouold really take off her own cloak as usually she would never show anyone her apperance. She felt confused on the matter. The air of mist was arising as she embraced the warmth going through her sleeves. Nakiami saw how much the woman was liking this and that was dandy. She never really gets to talk to another female nor really anyone unless she travels with some randoms upon a ship which for her it's easy to get on being a navigator and all. Her unknown eyes would watch the woman dip her feet in there, feeling and experimenting the waters tempature most likely.

''I'm glad you like it.'' she spoke simply, calm and assuring.

The water engulfed part of Naga's body making her body rather clean and so forth as she then relaxed within it. Nakiami's eyes looked away as she crossed her arms against her chest and saw a rock big enough to sit upon it. ''I will just sit here and uh...wait.'' she spoke as she didn't wish to join due to not wanting to uncloak herself. ''So here for adventures and all huh?'' she asked curiously and and calming.

Naki seemed happy with her response, and for a while Linnea completely lost track of time, enjoying the pleasant heat massaging her body and soaking away her exhaustion. She had done her fair share of sparring with her fellow Kuja on that ship, even if she still had enough energy to explore the island, this bath was a hugely welcome alternative. Her eyelids fluttered open and she leaned her head further back slightly, looking up at Naki somewhat confused by her still standing there as if nothing happened,

"Why is that? The water is really good, you know...", She smiled with encouraging smile, feeling it was a bit odd for Naki to leave herself left out like this. Was she a shy girl like Lin herself? Closing her eyes once more, she confirmed her suggestion, "Yup! I wonder what might be there to see in South Blue... What about you?"

Having found secret hot springs like this, the blonde was sure her new acquaintance likely shared her love for exploring and adventuring. But what else did they have in common? Was she a pirate, a mercenary, or just an adventurer?
