You discuss your plans with Aelita and Starfire

“So Aelita, Starfire, what do you want to do?” You ask, sitting at a diner table in the foyer of the main house of the villa complex. You had kicked Gaige out of the largest room with the biggest bed so that you could claim it with Aelita and Starfire. You weren’t too concerned about Gaige’s reaction since you knew that she was probably going to sneak in later tonight.

“I’m not to sure there are so many options, an artificial intelligence workshop this afternoon, an aquarium with newly discovered Risian fish, a musical duel performance in the city center, Klingon Opera at someplace called the Hallow,” Aelita listed off while listing off the events listed on the Risa Visitor Site.

“The Hallow is one of the biggest opera houses on Risa,” you explain, remembering the last time you had been there. “They spent decades carefully designing the place so that every seat had the optimal acoustics depending on species.” You gesture to imitate a sort of scan thing. “They take scans to adjust your seat in sync with the performance.”

“When did you go? I do not remember going.” Starfire asked as she cocked her head, her cat ears folding a little.

“You were sick with Garnic Fever when my parents took me,” you said after trying to recall for a few moments. Starfire nodded and returned to looking at things she was interested in potentially doing

You look over your own PADD to check what was the opera being performed today and curl your lip a bit, “the opera today is The Twin Daughters of L’ura, ‘a riveting tale of two Betazed sisters working to save their family from a Jem’Hadar invasion’ by working with a dashing Ferengi merchant and his Andorian partner’ by Teraver, son of Luva. Might be worth a watch though we might get a lot of product placements.”

“Hmmm,” Aelita said non committedly. Starfire scrolled her PADD and perked up her ears and tail.

“There is a petting zoo in Hucbi Park , ‘Adorable Critters of the Quadrant’,” Starfire said as she showed you an announcement depicting dogs, felines, marsupials, mammals and reptiles from dozens of worlds.

“For three more days,” you say, noticing the dates in small print at the bottom. Starfire nodded eagerly. “We can go tomorrow for a date and have the whole day for it. What do you think, Aelita?”

“A day in the park would be nice,” Aelita conceded with a slow nod. “I will look up the amenities and local food places.”

“So we have tomorrow, what about tonight? Should we go to the opera for both of your first times?” You ask while reaching for some plum grapes that Marinette set on the table.

“I think we are long past the first times, James,” Starfire giggles a cute little laugh. Aelita smiles at the little joke while you give a pretend annoyed pout.

“First time at the Hallow,” you corrected as you navigated to the ticket reservation page. “Hmmm, so three tickets for the three of us and at least two more for Hinata and Diana I think. Their turns for Aelita and Starfire watch anyways.”

“We’re not completely fragile,” Aelita reminded you while some electrical sparks appeared in her open palm. “Though it's nice to have their help. Do you think any of the others would want to come?”

“Friend Gogo, Alex, and Shampoo are all out doing the bicycling around the city,” Starfire said. “Friend Erza, Mirajane, Laura, and Sakura went down to the beach where there are Klingons and Andorians doing weight lifting.”

“Let's ask around and see who wants to go,” Aelita decided and started getting up. You silently offer to help her up but she just produced an electrical ball. You raised your hands in surrender and got up yourself. You followed after her while Starfire flew by you and ruffled your hair with a sweet twinkle in her eyes.
