Beach time

Ranvi calls you and says they are ready in front of your door. You grab your towel and bag, put some beachy stuff inside like sunscreen, sunglasses and you are ready to go. As you are about to open the door, you look back and think.

Lana (thinking): Hmm... knowing my luck... and extra bikini should be put into my bag... I don't want to end up naked on the beach...

You put one more in, open the door and head towards the sea at last.

Drek: Sorry Lana for that incident earlier, I didn't know the mosquitoes of Kashyyyk were so fierce! Let alone that I'm allergic to them...!

Ranvi: Guess what would have happened to you, had I not been there...! He was bit on his shoulder, it was swelling abnormally, with a big red dot at the centre, it looked awful! He even passed out right over there! He could have died...!

Drek: Not my best day so far...

Lana: Cheer up, the fun is just about to begin!

Drek: Yes, finally! It has been ages since we were on a holiday!

Ranvi: By the way Lana, your white bikini looks just perfect on you! You are so gorgeous in that!

Lana: Thanks Ranvi, your black one looks great too!

Drek (whispering to himself, mockingly): Wow Drek, you look great today, have you been working out lately?! Yeah, thanks for asking, I appreciate the compliment...!

Arriving there, the shore looks beautiful. The water is clean, the sunlight is warm, the little breeze in the air is just perfect to cool the bodies off in the summer heat. The place is filled with life, people from all ages and species are all around you. You find a spot to put your stuff down, all seems perfect! Before trying out the water, you all decide to take a drink at the beach bar nearby.

Ranvi: What would you like to drink?

Drek: I might just go with some water I guess.

Lana: Oh come on, we are on a holiday! Take a break! Besides, it all inclusive! Be a bit more daring!

Drek: You remember I can't take too much ****, right? Or have you forgotten what happened on Ryloth?

Ranvi (laughing): How could we forget, you had been drunk rampaging for hours in the village we were sent to protect! Caused more damage than a family of Rancors in record time!

Lana: Yeeah, well, try drinking a bit less this time...! No need to go for a whole bottle of Alderanian wine again! How about just a glass of Chandrilan champagne? Just for the feeling!

Drek: I suppose that's... acceptable.

You order three glasses and drink them while retelling the story that happened on Ryloth. You cannot help but notice a Duros male staring at your body, he has been doing it for a couple of minutes, when you finally decide to go and tell him to stop it, as it's offending. He's sitting there, drinking wine with his Zabrak girlfriend, who hasn't noticed it yet as she's telling a story with such fascination, she hasn't even looked at her boyfriend. You walk up to the couple and notice, the girl is blind... Even worse, she can't even see her boyfriend is staring at other girls...! You give word to your problem.

Lana: Hello, ehm, sorry, but could you just stop staring at me like that...? It has been unsettling. Not to mention your girlfriend is blind and you use it against her! Thanks!

Duros: I-I don't know what you mean...!

Zabrak (infuriated): You do what?! You sun of a Hutt...! I pay for your vacation from my family's wealth and this is what I get?! Get this, you schutta!

She grabs her glass of wine and pours it right onto you. The Duros gets on his feet and makes a run for it.

Lana: What an Endor are you doing...?!

Zabrak (surprised): Oh...! Weren't my fiance sitting there...?! Forgive me! Bartender, an other glass of wine please...! No, make it a whole bottle...! I'm going to break it on his head when I lay my hands on him...!

She grabs the bottle and runs after the man, screaming all sorts of insults and curses, but she went in the wrong direction. It would have been funny, had you not been the victim of her fury. Looking at your brand new white bikini, which has mostly been recoloured to red, you too are angered.

Lana: Damn it all, I have just bought that! How am I going to get this redness out of it?!

Ranvi: If you ask the service droids to do it, there might be a chance to remove the redness, but you should be quick, before it dries!

Drek: Isn't it interesting, that those red pigments in the wine, actually come from blueish grapes, with high contents of...!

Ranvi: Drek...! This isn't the right time for that!

Drek: Yeah, yeah...

Lana: Great...! Why always me?! Alright... I have brought an extra one, just in case, I'll get changed right away, hoping it can still be saved.

Ranvi: How thoughtful of you! I have only taken this one!

Lana (thinking): Knowing myself and my luck, I should have brought my whole wardrobe, just to be sure...

You find a service droid and ask it to wash your bikini. It is possible to be done, but first you must take it off and hand it over, later on, it will be brought to your room, once it is done. You all return to your stuff on the shore, wrapping your towel around your body tightly, you carefully remove your two pieced clothing and hand them over to the droid, who leaves with them right away. As you were standing there still in a towel, you have noticed how frequently Drek had been looking at you.

Lana (thinking): Could he have been trying to peek under my towel from the right angle? Ah, men, they just never give up on seeing women without clothes! I could actually help him with that... A second of flashing couldn't hurt anybody! But I don't want to cause trouble for Ranvi, they are a couple now, I shouldn't be doing such things...
