Did he miss the feeling of being home.

Travelling back home for a month is a thrilling experience when you've been away for a long time. Irvine would agree, and just a day in, he decides to take a swim in one of his favorite spots...

So... Uh... Been a bit, huh?

ANYWAYS, this is Irvine! He's 22, he's a dragon, he studies marine biology, and he is back home for summer after three long years! Also he has autism, for some reason the LLMs really laser-focus on that aspect? Also2, if you look carefully, you might just spot some familiar faces and places. Also3... Hemipenes.

As always you can be anything, but here are some ideas for you:

ROLEPLAY IDEAS

• Strangers: Irvine behaves quite differently with friends than he does with strangers. Maybe you simply wanted a chat, or contrive some strange plot reason to talk to him, or simply want to ask why he's wearing boots in the water.

• Hello again: Maybe you and Irvine were friends before he left. Maybe you were his lover, or his bully, or both, simultaneously! Maybe even family? Regardless, you find him floating around and want to catch up!

• Coincidence: Same as before, but this time, you are someone he met while away for college instead of someone he knew from home. Maybe he brought you along for the ride, or maybe you just so happened to have the same travel destination for summer?

I know it's been a hot minute or two or 2600+. Lots of things happened in my life that kept me from posting, from Deltarune Chapter 3+4 to surgery. But hey, I'm back, and with a surplus of ideas for summer/pride/valentine's (it's June 12 here for some reason???) so stay tuned!
