“Thank you, Clove.” Mai-Mai smiled as she reached into the cooler to get some coconut water as she waited on Kinryu Kyto to return with her drink. “Oh, there is a jazz band onboard? That is, excellent! I love jazz music. When bands get to jamming together properly the music becomes like an emotional conversation. Which can either serenade, seduce or simply get me wanting to dance. I don’t care if it’s by myself or with Shinryu. You know what I mean?” Mai-Mai took a moment to look over at the bar where Kinryu Kyto stood waiting with Grenn before responding to Clove’s over question about her journey on this cruise liner. “Hmm, that actually sounds like a good idea. Making this into a world tour trip. That is something I haven’t done in a good while. I think back when I was seventy-three or seventy-four last time I did that.”“I was with my wife Kiyoko at that time. She passed well over a century ago. I doubt Shinryu wasn’t even a concept for Kami yet.” Mai-Mai leaned back smiling as memories from that time in her past came bursting into her mind. “She was quite a tall woman. Who stood nearly two meters tall without her heels on. She also had a personal mission to make near any person she met at least laugh once everyday. We were celebrating our thirtieth anniversary together on a train tour between West City to the resorts in Pilaf Land, to Orange Star City Orchestra, and back again. One big loop.“When Mai-Mai heard Clove mention that she also wanted to explore business opportunities while she was on this trip also piqued her interest as well. “Oh so you are an entrepreneur? That’s good to hear. I have some businesses in the Southern Islands. That is the main reason why I’m on this trip to head back and check up on them a little bit before running off with Shinryu again. But that can be a quick thing I can take care of just by poking my head into the office.”Meanwhile as the ladies were continuing to have their conversation by the pool, Kinyru Kyto stood by the bar waiting on his and Mai-Mai’s drinks to be prepared speaking to Grenn. When he heard Grenn’s declinement to go into detail about what happened to his shoulder Kinryu decided not to press the matter. “I am.” Kinryu Kyto looked over at Grenn sharply a moment before laughing at his comment. “Which is why I know that every now and then I need to give Mai-Mai, her space so that she can be herself.” “Oh definitely. If there is the right song going I’ll probably snatch Mai-Mai up to dance on the floor with me.” When Grenn asked if he liked music Kinryu Kyto couldn’t help but smile. He leaned close as if he were telling Grenn a secret. “I’ll tell you one thing Mai-Mai doesn’t know yet. It didn’t make it to air but when I was fifteen I auditioned on the Orange Star Idol show. All the judges loved me singing my favorite R&B song.”Kinryu Kyto blushed as he admitted why he never made it to competition. “But I messed up and lied on my application form by forging my Mom’s signature. So I didn’t have legal permission to go on the show.”WC:580 TWC: 2141 CloveJodyGrenn/kitara

“Music does have that effect on anyone. I have not met anyone who did not enjoy it.” She listened to what Mai Mai had to say, explaining she was one hundred years old, and was married at some point. “I see, my parents are also a century old, and waited quite some time to have legitimate offspring.”
Clove was experienced in her method of applying the oil, she was adding pressure to certain points of Jody’s body that would affect her ki channels, after having the same massage technique applied by her sister Juniper whenever she paid her family a visit between her sword training. Being good with both hands were part of mastering the blade which gave her excellent strength that a normal earthling would be unable to accomplish. Crimson eyes observed Jody for a minute which made her chuckle at the saiyan’s last statement, she rolled over in response to her inquiry, her oiled hands immediately went to work on her collar and shoulders. The arms were next, evenly distributing both sides without missing a spot, more than likely tickling Jody as she motioned her fingers from under her arm and sweeping across her side on the edge of the towel covering her chest towards her strong core; the saiyan woman was well scultiped under the surface of her skin. By the time she was thoroughly done oiling the exposed parts of the woman’s skin, Grenn returned with Shinryu carrying drinks, and she lightly slapped Jody’s thigh to get her up.
“All done, enjoy your drink.” She motioned for her drink to be left on the lounge table since her hands were oily.“Thanks, Grenn-San.”
Clove stood up to wash her hands in the outdoor shower to get the oil off her skin. The Tea princess then sat on the edge of the pool, getting her feet wet, she lifted her leg up to watch the water droplets cascade down her pale complexion.
“I went on my first date the night before the tournament.” Clove answered Jody, “I held no interest in meeting anyone that would be special in my life since it was forbidden in my family. Fortunately for me, my sister accepted being the heir to our clan, and thus our family immediately arranged a political marriage. If she rejected it, then it would have been my fate to marry someone I did not love in order to continue the family lineage that is over four hundred years old.” She looked over to the others with a forced smile, “I will bide my time by traveling and going on dates along the way until I have to return home. What about you Jody? Anyone special back at home or are you single?”
After a beat, she stretched her arms out, and slid into the water immediately turning on her back to float carelessly in the pool.
“What’s wrong Grenn? You look worried about something, what’s on your mind?”

Jody enjoyed the full experience under the expert hand of Clove. Her ki channels seemed to open up as Clove worked on her pressure points. She turned a little red when she flipped over with only a towel to cover her chest, but that embarrassment soon went away as she was once again taken away on a cloud of bliss. The only thing foreign to enter her mind was the conversation between the two women. She didn’t realize that either of them was so old, or of their extended life spans. It was a strange conversation for her to be caught in the middle of, so she kept her mouth shut as she did not have anything to add to the conversation.
When Clove finished applying tanning oil to Jody, she sat up, covering herself with the towel. She carefully put on her top, still being mindful of her hands as they were wrapped. “Thank you Grenn, thank you Clove.” She said as she got up from her chair and took her drink, using both hands to lightly cup the glass. She moved over to the side of the pool to sit on the edge and relax. The sun was beginning to set by the looks of it. The sky was lit up in hues of red and purple.
Clove sat down next to her and divulged what happened the night before the tournament, and her family situation. “Wow, I can’t imagine having such a huge responsibility forcibly placed on me. My family never had any power, and I was always to free-spirited to stay in my small town. That’s rough.” Jody said as she took a sip from her drink. She tried her best to resist the urge of her face to scrunch up from the strong spirit.
“I have no one special.” She said with a laugh and a dismissive shake of her head. “At least no one to keep me down. I travel so much moving from place to place and getting into serious or dangerous confrontations, if I had to add someone to that mix it would be hell. I couldn’t possibly give them the time or the dedication without giving up what I love doing at this moment. And there are a few men in this world crazy enough to join in on my worldwide antics.”
Jody looked to the side where the Jazz band was setting up. Stagehands moved about bringing instruments and equipment, perfecting the lighting and the sound quality and balance. Hopefully, it would be a good show.

Grenn while he was thinking about everything and about the fact he had absolutely no idea who to dancewith or even how to dance, not even knowing if he will dance would soon be caught off guard by Clove who, thanks to that question, made him snap out of it for a second as he turned rowards her while in the pool after finishing his drink, very fast. "o-oh its nothing its just..." he would sigh and roll his eyes "w-well im a little nervous about the band considering i never danced at all....i dont even know if i would dance...." he would have a bit of red runnin on his face but it was well hidden enough. its almost funny since you would expect a 40 years old to have danced once in his life....tho well...Grenn was not exactly most 40 years old saiyans after a bit he would simply sigh once more hoping it wouldnt have been weird. "aside that well....i wouldnt even know who to dance with, alot of people here but well...i dont know who i would choose to dance with heh" he would chuckle a little, Clove could definitely tell He got much better at communicating with other people, he must have opened quite a bit in theese 3 days before the cruise. Clove most likely would have been the only one to notice it. after saying it, he would go on to just stay in the water at poolside, to just stay calm and chat

Mai-Mai choked slightly on her drink upon hearing that Clove was nearly forced into an arranged marriage. She shook her head no as she cleared her throat as those are one thing she never could stand being in existence. Shouting out loud, “Oh hell no. I am glad my family never did such a cockimamie thing. Well actually my one cousin did something close to that. He had to marry his baby’s mother or get kicked out of Granny’s house. Granny actually still kicked him out cause he somehow set the kitchen on fire while trying to make a bowl of Dragon Puffs cereal.”
When Mai-Mai heard how this young Saiyan girl Jody was trying to hide that part of her wanting to be with someone. “Jody, I can tell you right now with one hundred percent certainty. That there is out there someone, who would love to go chasing after you wherever you go running off to. I’ve done it several times and trust me you might find someone great.”As Grenn, cautiously tried to segway out of this conversation about dancing both Mai-Mai and Kinryu Kyto looked at each other with a smirk before they started laughing together. Kinryu spoke first and said. “So you never really learned how to dance?”“Don’t worry it’s nothing hard Grenn. In fact I could teach you real quick.” Kinryu Kyto took a few couple meters walk away from Mai-Mai, and began snapping his fingers rhythmically a moment before he started doing a simple two step dance. “You just have to basically step left and right to the beat of the music. Second and fourth bass drum strike. Like this.”“Shinryu.” Mai-Mai giggled at her Saiyan lover’s recklessness. As Mai-Mai rose to her feet she said to Grenn. “And as for a dance partner Grenn. I’m.., fairly certain you have a few options.”WC:318 TWC: 2459 Clove Jody Grenn/kitara

“Being honorable in my family is valuable, the people who reside in our homeland respect us for it, but there are still a few members who try to get away from a disciplined lifestyle.” The half demoness reflected for a moment, most of her half pig beast family members were influenced by the sin of the city, and she was no different from them with the exception of avoiding the western lands entirely. The poolside was quite entertaining just by meeting everyone either for the first time or increasing the bond of their friendship. “Hmm, just men? I welcome the company of all genders or whatever is out there who wants to spend time with me.” Clove admitted to Jody that she had no preference, Mai Mai seemed to be similar in that regard but it was obvious she kept with her partner. Clove continued to swim a few laps while the band was setting up, everyone was excited about the music and dancing that she might as well partake in the festivity. The sun began setting the horizon, turning the sky different shades of red hues, and she sat on one of the lounge chairs to dry up with what sunlight remained, taking another coconut from the cooler to stay hydrated. She watched Shinryu teach Grenn how to dance by snapping his fingers, she smiled to hold back from chuckling at the attempts to teach someone slightly uncoordinated, it would take a year of practice to dance professionally at the least. “Keep practicing Grenn-san, you can do it!” Clove hollered at him. After a while of lounging, the passengers began to emerge outside as the heat wave was over, everyone was dressed in light clothes, some were more casual while others wore elegant outfits. “Well, now that I am all dried up, I am going to get dressed, and I will meet you all on the dance floor? Heh.” While humming a tune she retreated from the poolside and returned to her cabin. After a shower, she picked one of the red and black gowns her designer made, it was no different from the style of clothing she normally wore which were robes with large silk obi tied into a large bow on her back. A sheet of woven paper fell to the ground, it was the original illustration that the designer drew for Clove with a sword in hand, the hairpin adornments were not included with the clothes as in the drawing, her hair was tied up with a red silk ribbon kept in a high ponytail otherwise her hair would drag on the floor. The tea princess returned to the main deck in front of the band that was about to begin their performance, she looked to see if anyone else was still around, curious if anyone else changed clothes for the occasion.

Jody watched on as the two men danced, it was wholesome to watch. It was rarer a sight than Jody would have thought really. It was kind of sad that a situation like this comes up rarely, seeing one grown man teach the other, who was clearly embarrassed, how to dance. As Mai Mai explained to her that she would eventually find someone for her she just shrugged. Maybe she was right, there easily could be someone who would be more than willing. The question was Jody willing? It seemed like a lot of work, and she only had so much time and compassion to go around. What if he wanted her attention but all she wanted to do was go fight. It seemed like a hassle and she would feel bad for the person that made her a priority if she didn’t reciprocate. Either way, Jody didn’t really want to talk about it all that much to strangers she barely knew, no matter how kind they were.
When Clove asked her if it was just men she looked down and blushed a little bit. “Well… maybe…” She didn’t quite know how to respond to that. Was Clove trying to convey a deeper meaning? Or was it just a legitimate question? She also never considered dating others of the same sex really. It seemed foreign. She played with the idea in her head and she could see some obvious issues, but it wouldn’t be all that bad. She might be open to it, but she wouldn’t dare say out loud. “I don’t know.”
She pushed past her embarrassment and cheered along with Clove as she cheered Grenn on. “You got it! Yeah! Kill it!” She looked over and watched folks gather up to dance, and she smiled at the prospect. It seemed like fun, to let loose. Also, the spirits that she had been downing also gave her a little bit of wild courage that bucked off the restraints in her mind. A few moments after Clove left, she left the poolside as well to go change. After a quick shower, and putting on a simple red sundress that she packed, she returned to the dance floor.
She was quick about it, as there wasn’t much for her to do except take things off and slip things back on. So she was the first to the dance floor, as the smooth music played. She looked down and closed her eyes as she let her body be taken away by the music. It was mostly swaying but she got a little more confident with time, keeping her eye’s closed as to not see anyone’s reaction to her. It helped her confidence. She eventually raised her head up and began to fully enjoy herself with a smile. Opening her eyes, she spotted Clove, beautiful as always. She wasn’t the only one looking as others in the crowd looked her way as well.
She said, “You know, you are a real head-turning Clove.”

As Grenn was just dragged into dancing, he'd let out a simple 'Gah!?' sound as he did not expect such an eager response as he also blushes slightly embarassed with a chuckle at Mai Mai's comment about the compay "i guess so...." as he took few mroe soconds he'd just sigh and decide to let loose to start a simple yet pretty fun dance for himself, which simply consited in moving arms in the same direction , snapping his fingers once his arms were extended and just literally letting loose as soon as he finished this, tho he was quite a bit uncertaint of his 'dance style' as he heard a bit of cheers from both of his friends he would just smile upping it to eleven learning this quite fast as he decided to stop soon enough "you know what this is fun! heh....oh wow is it already time??" he'd notice the band setting up as he nodded to clove and looked at the others "ill be back in my usual outfit then, gonna go change too" as he immediately booked it for his room.
as it was finally time and he arrived last, when everyone had pretty much already gotten there, they could see a Grenn with Combed hairs, properly combed beard (which he took great care of) and pretty much just the usual outfit he travels in, just with the addition of the jacket for extra 'wow' points on the look. as he simply walked to them "finally got here, sorry bout being late"
he'd chuckle a little smiling , looking at the group "you are all looking great, hope the poutfit holds up...tho to be fair its what i usually wear anyways" He'd laugh a little as he just smiled ,waiting for the band to start playing music, the first one being a pretty fast phased jazz song to which Grenn would simply put his jacket on a nearby chair and would start dancing, alone for now, not wanting to force them into dancing with him, knowing he was pretty much just improvising everything

After Kinryu Kyto and Mai-Mai departed from the swimming pool area where they had just met the other friendly tourists found their way quickly to their cabin. Where after taking a good time bathing one another they had fun picking out their clothes preparing to head back out to take part in this concert. Though Kinryu couldn’t hold back the fact as having conflicting intentions after seeing how his girlfriend fit into an awesomely sultry black and emerald trimmed short dress. {“Mmm mhmm good. Mai-Mai I got to tell you are looking. Sweeeet!”} “Oh I know, Shinryu.” Mai-Mai chuckled as she pinned her a slim hoop earring to her right ear as she looked over her shoulder at Kinryu. She then walked across from the dresser and grasped him by both of his hands as she leaned forward onto the tips of her toes to kiss his lips briefly before leading towards the hallway door. “But I think you’ve had enough candy for today. Now it is time to go down and work off some of this sugar.”A few minutes later the couple found their way to the dance floor as the house DJ began playing a pop song over the sound system. Mai-Mai being in the entertainment industry believed it was either to test the sound system or simply to start setting a mood for the evening. When she spotted Clove and the others standing together she lifted up her hands in joy and shuffled forward to greet them. “Oh, girls you are looking fine. I am loving what you did, Clove. Nice dress.”

It was curious that Jody had not been on a date before, her shy demeanor was cute when she looked away at the prospect, and perhaps she would try it someday given they were in the right environment to find a potential suitor. After all, the saiyan woman was intimate after the suntan oil scenario, she could easily use that again the next day to her advantage. Clove smiled as everyone returned with the best attire, Jody wore her favorite red color while it was plain it suited the saiyan woman well, Mai Mai looked like a professional dancer in her outfit with room for her delicate skin to breathe on the dance floor, and she nodded her head as the ladies paid their compliments. The pop music ceased just long enough for the Tea princess to speak to everyone. “Enjoy the rest of the evening ladies, I made a request for the band, so I hope you all enjoy my selection. Feel free to submit a request as well they seem to comply from what I can tell.” She turned over to Grenn, “Did you get enough practice Grenn-San? Shall we put your techniques to the test?” With an extended hand, she offered to dance with the crimson red eyed man, while he might have been nervous it seemed like she was prepared to lead by the way she stood, and being raised as a princess she was more than capable at dancing. The drummer kicked up the beat, followed the bass, and electric keyboard, the singer sang a ditty with a synth wave voice, and the music kicked off for a bit until the singer and the band began their unified performance of electro swing.

soon as the music stopped Grenn just looked around slightly confused but did not question it, rather he would just start to throw around a bit of compliments at both kinryu and mai-mai, mostly about their outfits, then hearing the start band getting ready to play again, as he simply decided to just wait for the song to start once again, before it started tho and after a bit more conversing and recieving the proposal from Clove, Grenn simply thought for a few seconds after Clove's request and just smiled.
"i guess i've had enough practice to give it a shot" He chuckled and decided to go ahead and take her hand as they both started dancing. As he kept on hoping neither of them would step on each other's toes he just smiled clearly having fun and enjoying the music letting her lead, Grenn definitely seemed more confident about dancing andwas reacting pretty well to the whole partying, dancing and all, he was just feeling pretty good about simply relaxing and having some damn fun.

When Grenn stepped forward to take Clove’s hand to take her as his dance partner, both Kinryu Kyto and Mai-Mai smiled hard as they held back their laughter. But they could not hold this back long as they stretched out their hands to one another to join in the fun of dancing with their new friends. ”That’s it Grenn. You got this man!” Kinryu Kyto shouted in joy as he leaned close to Grenn, before leading Mai-Mai into spinning away to find a little bit of room. The warrior and witch couple were moving swiftly in near unison as if they were performing a coordinated routine. However this was simply a matter of Mai-Mai truly having her few centuries experience and Kinryu’s youthful eagerness to turn this moment with his lover into something magnificent. Which Kinryu Kyto was certain of as the band continued playing the song for good while longer than normal, possibly an extra two and a half likely three full minutes until they finished their routine. “This band is great.”“Yes, I’m loving this band.” Mai-Mai smiled as she continued grooving to the heavy bass beat of the new song. Began Mai-Mai leaning her back to rub her shoulder against Kinryu’s chest. Just as Kinryu was about to bring his hand to her side, but at the last second Mai-Mai stepped away from him and over towards Clove. Gyrating her hips in sync with the strumming of the bass. Hoping that would serve as a clear enough single to the Tea Princess for her to dance with her a moment. Meanwhile Kinryu Kyto stood mildly surprised at Mai-Mai wanting to swap dance partners on him so soon. But he quickly stepped over towards Grenn and began dancing though clearly not in such an illicit manner. Just two-stepping as he asked Grenn. “I can see you're having fun with this. See it’s not too hard. Yo when this trip is over Hopefully we'll be able to meet up again”

soundcloud.com/electronicswingorchestra/lord-oh-lordGrenn was rather talented for recently learning to dance and be able to execute it the same day. The beat allowed him to move to the bouncing rhythm, suddenly they were surrounded by other passengers of the ship that were encouraged to dance along with the group, and in that moment Mai Mai cruised her way right in to steal Clove away by pressing her whole body against her. Crimson eyes looked over to Grenn who was not taken by surprise with Kinryu as his new dance partner who held a rather tame groove. “Oh my, you’re really enjoying yourself tonight.” Clove smiled and took the silver haired woman by the waist in order to dance right along with her as the song changed with their cores pressed together. As soon as the piano played the melody to a heel tap beat, the singer began the rest of the tune, and the tea Princess looped Mai Mai into a swing grasping her wrist firmly to pull her back pressed against each other. The pair encouraged the dancing crowd, as the song ended, another began to play to match the level of seduction on the dance floor between two beautiful women. soundcloud.com/swing-republic/crazy-in-loveIn no time at all, dancing had formed beads of sweat at Clove’s temples, her breath was catching up to beat itself as she focused on her performance of a lifetime. As the music began to slow down, the tea Princess reached out to touch Mai Mai’s jaw and leaned in to kiss this woman on the opposite cheek. “Tonight has been grand. By tomorrow we will arrive in South City. I will be opening a drink stand on an island I recently purchased, swing by sometime, will you? Have a good night.” With a wink she turned to the others and waved her hand demurely at Grenn and Kinryu. The swordswoman returned to her cabin to rest for the remainder of the evening. [324] [3,030]

He simply smiled having overall a ton of fun as he saw Mai Mai yoinked Clove immediately, as he soon saw kinryu dance side to side with 2 steps and just sighed with a chuckled pulling him in for a total hip and Couple Dance to make it overall even more fun as he then chuckled once more "Hehhe, yep i agree, we should definityely all meet up again for it!" as he kept on dancing laughing and having fun with kinryu clearly not minding the 'Man on Man action' he kept on getting tired and tired eventually getting really tired aswell and once the thing ended he'd give a hug to kinryu in a brotherly like way with a chuckle "heh, this was very fun, its getting pretty late for me tho..starting to feel pretty tired"
He started to make his way to the rooms a bit after clove did with a smile and a wave towards the other 2, and as he arrived to the cabins he simply knocked to give her to good night as he did to Kinryu and Mai Mai, and once and if Clove opened the door he would have simply been stretching his arms with a smile "hey Clove, sorry about the bother just wanted to give you good night as i did for the others, sleep well, this has been Crazy fun" He just chuckled with a smile, his blood red eyes looking at her to see if she d be bothered or not have minded and simply awaited a reaction, before simply going to sleep to his cabin after what ever her reaction would have been.

Clove opened the door, fully aware of the ki signature on the other side of the door, she was wearing a red silk robe, and her hair was undone which she held the strand ends in her hand to prevent it from dragging on the floor. With a yawn escaping her lips, she demurely covered her mouth as she listened to Grenn wish her a good night. A smile formed on her face, the first time she met this man, he was on a personal quest to find his family, and the recent events of meeting new people full of whim and vigor seemed to have influenced him in his motivations of the future.
“I would have a better night if you accepted my offer to be my vassal.” Clove said coldly at first, almost teasing the crimson eyed saiyan, “Perhaps, you need more time to think about it?”
The tea princess took a single step forward, standing dangerously close to him, and tugged his tie, slipping it out from underneath his vest.”Well, have a good night, Grenn-san.”
While she was tempted to take matters a step further, she was rather tired, and she required a bit more energy to be able to handle the present situation. She released his tie, took a step back, and kissed her fingertips while she blew air in his direction to blow the kiss at him. With a wink she closed the door and retired for the remainder of the evening.
