Hot tubbing on Pabu Island
The water was already bubbling in the tub.
Inviting and warm, the soapy bubbles having started to rise towards the cooling night air as the sun was setting. Slowly and gently like life itself on the safe haven of an island.
It was luxurious if anything, but hey, well deserved for all of them.
It had been with a huge thanks to Wrecker and Fireball’s efforts to get the tub built. The whole thing made out of wood and reinforced with plastoid to keep the water inside and the rot out.
It had also turned out to become rather huge as far as tubs went with no small thanks to a slight miscalculation. Which in the end had turned out to be great as the tub now did fit in the whole family and then some!
The clones living and visiting the island joining in to take a dip with the family as did several of their Pabu friends as well.
But, mostly it was the Batch’s own tradition, an almost nightly one at that. The whole core family loving to spend the much needed quality time together. The effects of the waters having a calming effect before the dreamworld would beckoned with some good sleep.
And so, taking the warm and relaxing dip with a few snacks and sometimes drinks too; alcohol for the adults while omega had a juice as did the clone boys snd Lyana when visiting.
They all having settled in for the night, the clear starry skies about be them. With most of the island having quieted down for the night, the only sounds those of the crickets with their nightly concert and the bubbling waters of the tub.
The family having become reacher quiet too, more so than usual. The day spent having been full and long with the team having helped build yet another new home for a squadron of clones moving in. All and all, the day productive if not tiring.
“Cosmic thoughts?” Hunter asked softly, sipping from his very good glass of house wine. Something of a new brew, the few clones having moved in on Pabu started a brewery for the stuff.
“Nah, none tonight.” Echo chimed sleepily.
“Completely empty head.” Crosshair snorted quietly.
“Nope, nuttin’ for ya.” Wrecker added.
“Just tired tonight.” Omega sounding almost asleep.
“No, nothing but quiet time tonight, Hunter.” Tech completed the thoughts.
They all chuckled. As sometimes quiet and calm and soothing was good too, especially when spent together with just the family.
Them all soon falling back to the relaxing sounds of water, crickets and the night around them, the moment total perfection.
